rm TMTV BITTS OF BMGHT NEWS tuvll 1 I lIL WJ. OF LOCAL INTEREST. Eagles Mere or Eaglesmere— Which ? We have always understood that Mrs. Judge Jones endowedjthis place with its name and that it was done in two words that were at - once de scriptive and poetic. For some rea son quite a number of our people have ignored both the intention of tho originator of the name and its appropriateness and write it "Eaglesmere." We suggest that following that precedent seme of tho neighboring names would look like the follow ing—Ganogalake, Muncycreek, Lakemokoma, t'astlerock, North branch of the Susquehannariver and the name of your paper would be Ropublicannewsitem. Would your wife know you as Charleslorenwing? Our name as published in the Of ilcial Postal Guide is "Eagles Mere" anil we think its friends should rec ognize this fact or else eiyry the precedent through everything else and live in the Unitedstates antl occasionally to Newyorkcity and call their children Johnsmith or Marjoriejones or something of that sort. There comes to every individual and community opportunities for improved surroundings. Unfortun ately we are some times slow to take advantage of these opportu nities so as to make the most of them. Probably this is true with lis but in the main there is a sort of "Excelsior" spirit growing up in our people that is destined to make itself felt in the continued additions to the attractiveness of the surround ings. Just now there is a prospect that one of the old time landmarks that has served the comfort of thousands in tht! last ten years will give way to something larger and better. We refer to the old Ice House that is ev idently on its last legs, if a house can be said to have such appendages. It has earned retirement and must necessarily be succeeded by some thing much larger, more in harmo ny with its surroundings in appear ance and more desirably located. As a denizen of the Reservation it is confessedly out of place and proba bly no one realizes that more than the Land Co. and, as they are con stantly seeking to advance in all that gratifies the visiting public, they will doubtless call in the best abilities of Engineer Chase for plans to store a part of Eagles Mere Lake next winter that will be a surprise and pleasure to another summers visitors. The "Laurel Path" has always been so popular and has achieved such a national repute that it seems almost a wonder that a similar ram ble has not been provided along the Reserve on the village side of the Lake. No elaborate road is needed, < )nly a meandering path, just wide enough for two if they walk real close together and with so much tif the serpentine in its course that it shall be full of little cozy nooks that might do for hiding places on an oi ca.sion. Only so that graceful slip pers need not get into the mud nor be out on rocky stones. If under an arcade of Rhododendron, Laurel, Maple and the like so much the bet ter. At present it is only accessible where the private paths down to in dividual boat houses cross it or the w liarves make it possible to clamor along in some sort of a fashion. Hut little expense need be incurr ed. In fact perhaps each owner fronting on the Reserve might pre fer to make the path in front of their own lots provided the author ities would assume the general su pervision so that there should be some harmony of design and no sacrifice of nature's ornamentations. We have been discussing this (|ues tion for a number of yeais and as our experience is that it takes about three years to carry through any public measure in Eagles Mere we venture to start the move now. We may talk about it this season, decide next summer that it shall be done and then in 1904 We will get at it in earnest. B. 2,000,000 ft; one, (5.500,000 ft; d various smaller ones.

The Democratic congressional cam paign committee has decided to make tlje tariff and the trusts the leading is sues In the campaign this year. That will be regarded as good news by all Republicans. The tariff has always baen a winning issue for the Republicans save in the campaign of 1892, when the voters lis tened to the seductive sophistry of the free traders and decided at the polls to destroy prosperity. Hut they learned a lesson as the result of that election which they are not likely to forget. The dark and gloomy days from 1893 to 1897, while the blight of the Wilson law was upon the country, business was paralyzed and labor was without remunerative employment, demonstrat ed that protection cannot be aban doned in the United States without bringing distress upon the people. The instant and tremendous revival of busi ness as a result of the election of Mc- Klnley and the enactment of the Din gley law, which restored the protective policy, supplied ample proof of the val ue of protection as a stimulus to in dustry and commerce. The Democrats cannot this year delude the people into voting for an abandonment of the pro tective policy. Nor will they be enabled to make an effective campaign on the trust issue. The Democratic record will not com pare favorably with the Republican record In respect to trusts. The Sher man antitrust law, which appears to be the only effective weapon that congress can use against the big combinations of capital, was framed by a Republican, passed by a Republican congress and signed by a Republican president in 1890. For four years that law stood in the statute books while Grover Cleve land was president, yet it was not used once to restrain a trust. It was used by a Republican attorney gen eral against the Joint Traffic associa tion and the Transmissouri Freight as sociation, which were formed to con trol trade among the states. It is now being used by another Republican at torney general against the beef trust, and it will be used against other com binations which are oppressive of the people. The Sherman law goes as far as any statute can under the present limita tions of the constitution in the re straint of the operations of trusts. It will be necessary to amend the consti tution so ijs to give congress greater power if more drastic legislation is to be enacted. Vet when a constitutional amendment was proposed in the last Republican congress the Democrats op posed It solidly.—Cleveland Leader. The South nii., late of Sonestown, Sullivan County, I'a., dee'd.
