SUNBURY, PA,
In July of last year the individual
epoKits in the national banks in this
The Habit country "mounted
( t o $3,328,000,000.
of H.vlng;. The depo8iu Jn the
savings banks in the country at the
same time amounted to $2,51)7,000,000.
The savings banks of the woril had
$8.1)08,340.000, representing 6"j 00J
aeponiiors. 1 be -average individual
account for the world was $141.24.
The average individual account for
the United States was $480.30. It
should be said in a time of prosper
ity, very truly says the Indianapolis
News, that no habit is more valuable
to cultivate than the habit of saving.
Prosperity avails a man nothing un
less with it he has strength of char
acter to save in proportion. Dickens
has a character in one of his books
that every time he prospers treats
himself, so to say; indulges himself
with some extra expenditure as a re
ward. That is likely to be a tendency
with too many. It is the old truism
about prosperity being more difficult
to stand than adversity. No man can
prosper that does not spend less
than he makes. He cannot greatly
proper unless increasingly he spends
less proportionately than he makes.
While money making is a positive
achievement as much us the creation
of anything is, frugality is something
that need wait on no gift, but may
be practiced by all. Whether a man
be rich or poor, whether he be gift
ed mentally or emotionally or be dull
there is for everyone in this life the
lesson of self-denial to learn, and as
this life is au exceedingly practical
thing, the basis of self-denial might
almost be said to lie in material sav
ings. Where a man has not the abil
ity to increase his income he should
decrease his outgo. He that does
this will soon begin to get a margin.
The process of saving is slow, but it
is sure. It can literally work won
ders, and once started it grows like
the rolling snowball. The smnllncss
at the beginning should be no dis
couragement. There is an opportun
ity for the man that can save ten
cents a week as well as for the man
that can save ten dollars a week. The
way is long, and to begin with nay
be difficult, but persistence in it
makes it easy. Life is more a mat
ter of habit than of intention and the
habit of thrift can as easily be culti
vated as the habit of prodigality.
The American Humane association,
which is a federation of the societies
for the prevention of cruelty to chil
dren and animals, is pushing ita work
with commendable zeaL The aggre
gate reports for the year ended with
September, 1901, show 29,461 cases of
cruelty to children investigated and
9,890 cases of cruelty to animals.
f About seven-eighths of the whole
country are without any organized ef
fort to prevent cruelty and it is calcu
lated that if the proportion of cases
is the same in the seven-eighths as in
the one-c.ighth the number of cruelly
treated children last year was 208,227,
and the number of dumb animals
abused 692,272.

INSURGENTS TO BE LEFT HOME.
AttenUon i now being directed to
the personnel of the comfna) otate
legislature, although many, xl-untle
have yet to nme their candidate.
In this city the party leader have
agreed upon nearly aU of the candi
date to be supported at the primaries
to be held in the first week In June.
Two of the most conspicuous insur
gents in the last legislature, David
Martin and J. Bayard Henry, will not
be renominated for the state senate.
Neither of them 1 a candidate. Mar
tin will be succeeded by former Reg
ister of Wills Hackett and Henry
place will be taken by Representative
Harrison, both of them stalwart Re
publicans. Of the thirty-nine members of the
last House of Representatives from
the Quaker City but thirteen will be
renominated. None of those who bolt
ed the senatorial caucus will go back.
The next delegation from Philadelphia
will be conspicuous from the large
number of young Republicans who will
figure on the floor of the house. Un
der the present leadership the young
men of Philadelphia are coming to the
front in the Republican organization
and they are being given recognition
in a practical way. . .
THE CONGRESSIONAL CANVASS.
There have been but few important
developments in the several contest
for Republican nominations for con
gress throughout the state. The fight
between Congressman Mahon and for
mer Senator Hummel for congressional
honors is becoming Interesting and
both candldatea are on the go through
out the district Congressman Butler,
of the Delaware-Chester district, has
been assured of renomlnation without
opposition and Congressman Wanger,
of Bucks and Montgomery, says he is
not the least concerned over the sug
gestion' of a new man being taken up
for his place.
While there has been some litigation
regarding the right of the chairman of
the Beayer county committee to refuse
to allow Congressman Acheson to reg
ister for the. Beaver county primaries,
the supporters of Acheson predict that
he will ultimately be named to succeed
himself. On the other hand Lawyer
Cunningham, of Beaver, Is making a
hard fight.

SOME LIVELY CAMPAIGN WORK
Elkln, Watree and Pennypacker Are
Now tho Only Recognized Rival
For tho Republican Nomination For
tho Governorship.
(Special Corraspondaaee.)
Harrlsburg. May 11 With the de
velopment of the last week the gub
ernatorial race has practically boon re
duced to a struggle between three com
petitors for the Republican nomina
tion. The canvass for delegates Is still be
ing conducted upon the most strenuous
lines and the champions of the rival
aspirants are kept busy watching the
game of their opponents and striving
for advantage at every point
The last week formally disposed of
two of those who bad been mentioned
among "the homo favorite," but who
were never regarded as dangerous fac
tors, Senator W. C. Sproul, of Dela
ware, and United States District At
torney James B. Holland, of Mont
gomery county.
Sproul had been honored with an In
dorsement from his county convention
and the delegates to the state conven
tion from Delaware were instructed to
vote for him. He concluded that he
was not to be considered seriously by
the state leaders and withdrew in a
letter In which he said he hoped the
movement to harmonize the party
would be successful. The delegates
from Delaware afterward met and In
dorsed Judge Pennypacker for gov
ernor. Mr. Holland, recognizing that
he, too, bad no show, did not allow his
name to go before the Montgomery
county convention and made no oppo
sition to an indorsement of Judge
Pennypacker.
BOOMING PENNYPACKER.
The Philadelphia Republicans, repre
senting all factions, have gotten down
to tho work of booming Judge Penny
packer for the governorship. They
are having their ward club and com
mittee meet and Indorse -hia candi
dacy. They have appointed commit
ted o canTMS-ttf -State In hi Inter
est and are organising delegations to
go to the state convention to cheer and
shout for him when the clans gather In
Harrlsburg prior to the opening of the
state convention on June 11th.
The action of the Lawrence county.
delegates in indorsing Judge Penny-
packer is understood to mean that they
expect the backing of the Judge's
friends for their favorite for the lieu
tenant governorship, former Senator
William M. Brown, of Lawrence coun
ty. Senator Brown's friends fought tho
Elkln men in Lawrence and succeeded
In bagging the state delegates and they
are in a position to .deal with the
Phlladelphlans in the framing of a
slate before the convention. The
leaders back of Judge Pennypacker are
known to be friendly to Senator Brown
and if Pennypacker shall succeed In
getting the nomination it 1b believed
Senator Brown will stand a good
chance of getting second place on the
ticket
ELKIN'S STRENUOUS CAMPAIGN.
The campaign being waged in behalf
of Attorney General John P. Elkln has
not been relaxed in the slightest par
ticular. The attorney general Is direct
ing his own forces and he is busy night
and day.
Luzerne county was a storm center
last week when former Lieutenant
Governor Watres' admirers in the first
Luzerne district comprising the city of
Wilkesbarre, challenged Mr. Elkln to a
public debate. The "Indiana county
plow boy" promptly accepted the chal
lenge and the debate took place on Fri
day night before, an audience of several
thousands. The candidates avoided
personalities, but each made a spirited
address, in which he set forth his
claims for the nomination. Mr. Elkln's
address dwelt largely upon the devel
opments in the political situation which
led up to Sonator Quay's request that
he retire from the race. He reiterated
bis determination to continue in the
canvass until the state convention shall
name its candidates and demanded that
the people be given an opportunity to
express their preferences at the pri
maries in the gubernatorial canvass;
The delegates election in the Wllkes-
barre district took place on Saturday
and the Elkln delegates won. The
vote was quite close. The Elkln men
now claim that they have nine of the
ten delegates from Luzerne. In an
other claim from the Elkln headquar
ters they count Armstrong and Forest
counties, which held primaries on Sat
urday. In Dauphin county the Elkln
men declare they will have tho full
delegation. ' The primaries In Dauphin
take place on the 17th Inst
Colonel Watres seems not to bo dismayed-by
the result of the Luzerne
county, elections, although this county
adjoins his home county - of Lacka
wanna. The colonel say he will keep
np the fight until tho roll shall be call
ed In the state convention and that b
Is still hopeful that bo will be agreed
upon as a compromls candidate for
