son iSi Co., of Patoisou, N. J. We nu
destaud that building operations will be

Relative to the tin plate Industry, your
committee lias further Investigated this

prolitablo Investment mid that every ef
fort should be made to locale It 111 Hcran
ton. Subscription papers are 111 the bands

In this important mutter. Tho secretary

Wonts to Withdraw offer.
A letter was rend from L. K. Torliett
withdrawing- his proposition In connec
tion wltli the proposed manufacture of
tin. Mr. Torbett had offered to sub
scribe JM.000 of the stock, and land
had been offered free, but delay was

deavor to Induce Mr. Torbett not to

Hearing upon the salting of tracks
by the Traction company the commit
tee on streets and highways made the
following report, which wus adopted:
In the matter of salt upon the public
highways by street railways for the pur
pose of melting snow we have carefully
considered the question, have sought the
opinions of persons well Informed on the
subject, including veterinary surgeons,
und llnd that the practice of salting the
snow on the streets Is:
First An Injury to the feet of horses,
especially so when any cut or contusion
exists.
Second It Is disagreeable to pedestri
ans. If not a positive Injury.
Third it renders the streets unsightly
and Is a nuisance in general.
Your committee recommend that the
Scranton Traction company be requested
and urged to desist from the practice,
und if persuasion fails that the secretary
be authorized to bring the matter to the
attention of the proper authorities to the,
end that the said company be compelled
to cease the objectionable practice.
Your committee favor the plan of -e-movlng
the snow from the streets In the
central part of the city wherever the fall
Is so heavy as to Impede travel on the
street railway tracks, believing that this
plan would not only solve the question be
fore the committee, but would also avoid
the annoyance and damage resulting
from tho snow.

manufacturers at Cincinnati, and Col

Slr-l read with considerable Interest

In this morn lug's issue of The Tribune. I
want to suy "on my honor as u gentleman"
that there has been no ."collusion between

some time. 1 have stated on more than
one occasion during the past year, thut
Ihe Hist Scranton piijier Unit would dis
continue lis separate news departments,
would be the most popular paper In this
city. I still hold to that belief.
I go even further and contend that It !s
all wrong to label our street cars Provi
dence, Oven Ridge, Hyde Park, etc., etc.
'I'nlte for Instance a car going to Provi
dence, mark it North Main avenue to
Parker street, mark u car going to lreen
Jtldge, IVnn and Snndersoii avenue to
West. .Market Klrcet, elc.; every one would
understand the destination of the cur,
and in a. short time, with the discontinu
ance of the separate news departments
in tlie newspapers, thcye localities w-mid
lose their iinllvlduiilily, and that Is Just
what Is desired for tlie welfare, of the city.
These districts are divided from the cen
tral city by Imaginary lines only, and It is
time these "mossback" Ideas Were
shelved. Keep up the agitation. Yours

When tbe advertising atmosphere is so
heavily charged with exaggeration, it
is well to remember who Ihe honest
advertisers are. Windy assertions about
(JKKAT reductionsadvertising goads
at impossible prices, Gnd no lodging
place in the minds of intelligent people.
Dull trade throughout the legitimate
business season may make necessary,
wild statements from some clothiers t
attract trade, but the schemers will
have to scheme harder and find new
disguises for their lame excuses before
they can stop the people from coming
to this store for honest values. The
triumph of this store is tbe triumphjf
intelligence, ami you have made it so.
Trade has been up to the mark here,
yet there's a touch of attractiveness in
the styles and assortments. We've add
