VACCINATING CHILDREN.

Yesterday,
With their accustomary generosity
the managers of the Hahnemann hos
pital announced In yesterday's Trib
une their willingness to vaccinate nil
those unable to pay physicians for the
small sum of 10 cents, the cost of the
virus.
The- price usually asked for perform
ing this service varies fiom 50 cents to
a dollar, Including the certificate, and
as all school children must be vaccin
ated by tho fifteenth of this month, It
can readily be Imaglnsd that the num
ber of applicants was by no means lim
ited. When this offer was made tho hos
pital authorities expected to have a
big supply of virus on hand, but fato
decreed otherwise, and ufter twenty
eight arms had been pricked by the

SCRANTON OF
THEFUTURE
EFFECT OF THE ELIMINATION
OF INDIVIDUAL OPERATOR.
D. B. Atherton Bays It Will Be to
tho Advnntago of the City if the
Money Released from Mining En
terprises Finds Its Way Into Man
facturing Channels Attorney C.
E. Daniels Also Takes a Cheerful
and Hopeful View of the Futuro of
This City.
t
Following ore two views ot the effect
the elimination of the Individual coal
operator from this region will have:
D. B. ATHERTON.
Tho city of Scranton hus reached a
new epoch as well as has tho anthracite
coal Industry. Scranton can no longer
depend upon coal mining if lt.i to con
tinue to prosper, grow and thrive. I
bellevo that our capitalists who have
large Interests In this community to
protect will see to It thatat least apart
of the money received from the Bale of
these coal Interests Is placed In chan
nels that will increase our manufac
turing Industries, and put the city
upon n more sound and better basis In
dependent of the coal Interests entirely.
I do not fear the retirement of tho
Individual coal operator. On the con
trary I believe that tho result will be
benellclul to Scranton. The change
will Increase the money circulation In
this district, because It Is a well known
fact that tho largo carrying companies
are more liberal In their mining opera
tions; It will do'iiwny with the com
pany store which will largely Increase
tho volume of business among Scran
ton's merchants; Scranton being the
metropolis of tho anthracite region,
buyoiH will naturally come here to del
their trading the moment they are re
lieved of the company store; It will
make the semi-monthly pay system
gcnernl which will decrease the credit
time limit one-half, and bring us so
much nearer the true and only basis
of business-cash.
There are so many openings hero
now for tho profitable Investment of
capital that I would like to suggest a
few: An open hearth steel plant; a
plant for tho construction of all kinds
of electrical apparatus; a tin plate
plant; a wire factory; a concern to
manufacture telephone supplies; fur all
of which there Is nn unlimited demand.
Any one of the above Industries, If lo
cated In Scranton, would have tho en
tire eastern market at their command,
anil for commodities that an In con
stant demand, and will be for many
yeais to come.
Nor H there a more centrally lo
cated city for the distribution of such
commodities than tho city of Scranton.
Look on tho map, and you will find
Scranton almost In the center of u
elide whoso lines would cross Hoston,
Huffalo, I'ittslniig and Baltimore, with
five different lines of railroad extending
in all directions.
Such Industries as well as many nl
leady located hoio would not be de
pendent upon the coal business. Take
for Instance tho Dickson Manufactur
ing company, our silk mills, piano fac
tory, axle woiks, drop forgo works,
our bolt and nut works and spike fac
tories, all of them are almost entirely
Independent of the coal business, and
work steadily without regard to the
condition of tho coal trade.
Such Industries aie what Scranton
needs; what Scranton must have, and I
for one nm willing to leave It to the
bioad minded, liberal, progiesslve citi
zen of tho city of Scranton to see that
we get them, and with a little more en
couragement from" those who have a
selllsh Interest in the development of
Scranton along the lines Indicated
above It will make very little difference
whether the coal business is In tho
hands of tho few or the many.
ATTORNEY 0. E. DANIELS.
The absorption of tho Individual coal
companies means the control of the
anthracite coal trade by fewer men,
and those men remote from the local
Interests and the producing reclons.
There will be both uenellts and disad
vantages. There Is an up hill for every
down hill; more than one rose for
every thorn. So It seems to me will be
the change In the anthracite coal
tiadc.
Unquestionably, the control of tho
trade will be centralized. "What bene
fits will result from that? It should
mean that railroads would compete to
tidewater more than heretofore. If that
would follow, the price of coal would
llkelv fall at tidewater and a wider
market would bo found for the com
modity. In my opinion, the miners
themselves would be bettered In their
dally work. There are exceptions, of
course, but tho general proposition Is
that the Individual operators have
been moie exacting and have imposed
gi eater hardships and restrictions upon
their men than the larger companies
have.
Then, too, a depression In business Is
felt more quickly by tho individual
operator, and very often the larger and
coal-carrying companies have been
able to tide over slight business de
pressions without an effect on the men,
and sometimes even without their
knowledge. It should result, too, that
with fewer men to consider and handle
tho questions which must arise be
tween capital and labor, from time to
time, there would be less disputes and
a mote amicable settlement of thoso
which did arise. The power of a few
men In the settlement of the lecont
coal strike was very apparent and very
dominating. The fewer number of men
In control of both capital and labor tho
moie likelihood there will be of them
meeting on a common ground, man to
man.
Tho great disadvantage of the deal
lies far more to tho community than
to tho miners themselves. It means
that the corporation profits will not bo
expended for the advancement of local
Interests. They will go Into the ticas
urles of men hundreds of miles away,
and will bo used for tho furthering of
business projects far removed from
any thought of uur city. Heretofore
we reaped the benefit of the wages and
tho general profits. Now we lose the
latter. If our city Is to continue to
grow, something must take the place
of that loss. Tho Individual operators
have within their power tho making or
mailing, at least In some degree, of
our city for years to come. The pur
chase price of the sales has been paid.
Will It be expended in placing Indus
tries and factories In tho city and val
ley1' If It will, tho foundation will thus
bo laid, that will make Scranton a
busy Industrial city when tho duys of
its chief product, coal mining, will
have paused. True, outsiders do come
here to Invest. Hut It l l'j homo fos-
torlng of business that draws tho eye
of the outsider. .
Scranton has outgrown tho swaddling
clothes of dependence upon the one in
dustry of coal production for its life.
Tho city Is dotted with manufacturing
smokestacks that tell of activity in
other Industrial lines. Hut the futuro
will bo problematical,1 so far as con
tinued growth nnd prosperity nro con
cerned, unless there be additional In
dustrial manufactories located here. If
the sale money of tho mines bo trans
formed Into these factories nnd mills,
Scranton's futuro Is assured. 1 um not
pessimistic enough to sny that Scran
ton wilt dwindle and die unless the
present Individual operators Invest In
other channels. I bellevo It will not.
But somen here must bo found people
to caio for tho city's Industrial nnd
financial Interests. And does not the
sale of Individual mines open up that
very opportunity to tho operators to
advance tho city's Interests? If it be
seized, it seems to me that the sale of
the mines to the coal-carrying com
panies avIII eventuate In a solid basis
of prosperity that will not crumble
with years nor lessen by production us
coal necessarily must.

ARGUMENT OF
VIADUCMASE
WAS HEARD YESTERDAY
JUDGE JOHN P. KELLY.
BY
An Early Decision Is Expected from

Suit Against tho City to Recover
$0,000 Damages for Injuries She

cation for a Divorce She Wants

The viaduct case Is noy In the hands
of Judge John P. Kelly, tho final ar
guments having been conducted yes
terday afternoon. It Is generally un
derstood that the Judge will render
an opinion within tho next two weeks,
us the case will be taken to tho Su
preme cottit, no matter which side
wins, and It is desired to have the
paper books ready, so that it can bo
heard by that tribunal somo time in
February.
Tho case was, pretty thoroughly ar
gued from the clay of tho first hear
ing so that nil the attorneys did yes
terday afternoon was to sum up tho
various arguments before presented.
Attorneys Burns nnd Strecter argued
for the plaintiff and City Solicitor
Vosbuig nnd Major Kvcrett Warren
for tho defense.
Tho defense contended that the
$290,000 worth of bonds authorized by
tho vote of tho people could not be
counted In a statement of tho city's
tnneiitcciness prepared for the. pur
pose of showing that councils by au
thorizing the construction of a. via
duct had exceeded the two per cent,
debt limit. With this $;')0,000 taken
out, it was shown tint n margin of
over $100,000 remained.
Then for fear that court might de
cide that this 1290,000 should bo
counted In compiling such n debt
statement, the attorneys for the de
fense argued that the $100,000 debt
contracted by the erection of a via
duct would be an unliquidated claim
and not such n debt ns the framers
nf the constitution had In mind when
they framed that clause of the con
stltutlon fixing the debt limit in mu
nicipalities. The attorneys for the plaintiff de
nied both these contentions, and In
sisted that the $290,000 should ba In
cluded when ascertaining w bother or
not councils had exceeded the two per
cent, debt limit, and that the debt

tion of the viaduct would be In every
senso of the word such a debt as was
Intended by thoso who fixed tho con
stitutional debt limit.
, The attorneys for tho plaintiff also
attacked tho validity of the ordinance
on jthc ground that the plans and spe
cifications were not attached to It and
that It provided for more things than
the.' title nnnounccd. In reply to these
arguments, the defense showed thnt
the! plans and specifications were on
file In the city engineer's olllco and
that tho fact that they were not ac
tually attached to tho ordinance could
not lwsslbly Invalidate tt.
It was also contended by Messrs.
Vosburg and Warren that tho title of
an ordlnnnce was never Intended to
be an Index to it, and that the other
things which tho moaRuro provides for
