Next to the wife beater cornea the

we have one or two in this com
munity. A horse is the most noble
and faithful of animals and the
man who would abuse his horse has
something lacking In his manhood
We note with pleasure that the
farms In this county are developing

C. Fred Wright is now State
Treasurer, and It is a source of grat
ification to his many friends to know
that Governor Stuart selected him
for this important position. Those
who know Sir. Wright, know that he
is the peer of any man living, In
straightforwardness, in business, po
litical or social life. The people of
Wayne county will be more than
pleased at Mr. Wright's elevation, as
they well remember the vituperation
and malignity which Editor Haines
of the Independent heaped upon him
whenever he was a candidate for
office, because Mr. Wright refused to
pay toll or bow the knee to a politi
cal buccaneer.
OPPORTUNITY.
The owners of the building form
erly occupied by the Wayne Cut
Glass Co. will sell at a reasonable
figure or will rent at a fair rental,
their new building to Editor Haines
and his friend, tho Organizer, who
a great many people think have
Joined hands and forces to wreck
or drive away Honesdale's Glass
Cutting industries. Here is a
chance for these men to give em
ployment to the glass cutters who
aro now on a strike. Here is an
excellent opportunity for these lead
ers to show whether they are sin
cere to. the wprkingmen, or whether
they are using them as tools to
foster their own political and finan
cial ends. Let these men show that
a closed shop run under the Jurisdic
tion of the Union, can be made a
success. Let them put up their
money In a venture of this kind, and
this whole community will rise up
and bless them. They have been
giving out talk and sympathy, but
this won't pay the rent, or buy
groceries. The glass, cutters should
demand that this great opportunity
be taken advantage of by these
leaders In order that they may have
a chance to show this community
that the demands that they are mak
ing are Just, and that tho principle
for which they aro standing out for
is reasonable.

Colossus ofthe British navy, launch- lections for 1907 from May 1 were
ed a few days ago. The Florida cost 510,701,117.57; for 1008, J25.852,

largest warships in any navy.
Hardly had they boon launched when .
the British navy launched tho Nep-'
tune with a, displacement of 250 tons !
preater. Then a few days ago tho
United States navy launched the
Utah which outranked tho Noptund,
but our superiority was almost Im
mediately nullified by the launching
of tho British warship CoIosbus with
a displacement of 22,500. The
Florida which we will launch May
12 has a displacement of 22,000.
But wo will soon bo In tho lead

Wyoming which are to ho 20, 000-ton
vessels carrying twelvo 12-Inch guns,
nnd Congress Is even discussing the
building of a larger pair to carry
14-inch guns. Great Britain Is also
to build a 2C,000-ton armored
cruiser.
Germany, Franco nnd Japan aro
also feverishly at work turning out
wnrships of tho Droadnaught style,
while Russia, Italy. Austria and
South American countries nro all
spending moro than thoy can afford
Jn strengthening their respective
navies.
Meanwhile very eloquent orators
debate tho question of International
conciliation and a dispatch comes
from London to tho effect that a
scientist has discovered somo sort of
a deadly "ray," which Is an attrib
ute of tho high frequency electric
current, which can be soparated and
by a mechanical contrivance, de
flected, concentrated and aimed in
the same manner as n gun and which
can blight, crumple up and destroy
anything from a Jorsoy mosquito to
an army corps. An cxperlhierit was
tried the other day on a horso four
miles away. Tho eqtllno was peace
fully grazing in a pasture when the
deadly "ray" was dellected and
brought to bear upon it. Tho nnl
mal staggered as though dazed by a
blow, then peacefully keeled over
and died. The inventor of tho ray
said tho result would have been tho
same had the distance been fifty
miles and the object aimed at an
army corps. Things look bad for
the dove of peace.

Supremo Court in Amicable Action
Sustains Governor's Appointment
to Fill Vacancy.
Harrisburg, May 3. State Treasur
er John O. Sheatz formally trans
ferred the ofllco of State Treasurer
with its custody of millions of dol
lars of cash and bonds to Charles
Fred Wright, of Susquehanna, this
morning. Upon receipt of the news
from Philadelphia that tho Supremo
,n fayor Qf th(j
,egaty of jir.AVrighfB appointment,
Mr. Sheatz announced he would
1 .Ulnu
ruiui") wimuui. wem,
Mr. Wright had formally demand
ed tho office early yesterday and had
1 been refused in accordance with tho
arrangement to start the test case
in tho Supremo Court. When tho
decision was announced ho called
upon Mr. Sheatz and tho surrender
of the office was arranged.
Mr. Sheatz made this statement
last night: "In retiring from tho of-,
lice of State Treasurer, I do so with
a feeling of thankfulness and appre
ciation to the people of Pennsylva
nia for the honor bestowed upon me
In electing mo treasurer of this great
commonwealth. I was singularly
fortunate in having the support of
as loyal and efficient a body of men
as ever served in any department of
the state government. My subor
dinates were at all times faithful
and painstaking. It is most grati
fying to be able to say that in no
Instance have 1 heard or read In the
public press anything but approval
of my work. I leave this office with
the full knowledge that I was well
compensated for my work and I, In
turn, gave full time and the best
there was in me to serve my nearly
7,000,000 employers."
Audltor-General-elect A. E. SIsson
who also assumes office to-day, stated
that he would make no changes for
the present.
The decision of the Supreme court
is as follows:
"Now, May 2, after argument and
consideration, Judgment Is entered
for the commonwealth that John O.
Sheatz be ousted and altogether ex
cluded from franchise, privilege and
power of state treasurer and that tho
commonwealth recover Its costs-from
the defendant."
The decision was announced by
Chief Justice Fell, who said that a
written opinion will be filed later.
Auditor General Sisson took the
oath .of office before Secretary of the
Commonwealth Robert McAfee at
10:30 on Tuesday. His bond for
$5,000, with the Pennsylvania Sure
ty company, of Harrisburg, as surety,
was filed at the same time and short
ly before noon the office was formally
transferred to him.
The desk of the new auditor gen
eral was occupied by many flowers,
chief among them being a design of
a horseshoe of roses sent by the de
partment. Many officials on the
"Hill" called to congratulate him
and he received numerous telegrams.
It Is understood that Deputy Audi
tor General T. A. CrJchton, Chief
Clerk N. E. Hause and Corporation
Clerk J. V. Murray are to remain for
BREAD WITHOUT FLOUR.
Parisian Process by Which Whole
AVIieat Grain is Used,
Parisian bread is mado without
flour In a machino that transforms
tho wheat Into dough. Tho machine
consists mainly of a largo screw
turning loosely In a case on whose
innor surface Is a screw thread run
ning In an opposite direction.
Botween tho main threads on tho
cylinder aro smaller threads, and tho
depth of tho groove grows progres
sively smaller from ono end to tho
other, so that It will hold tho entire
wheat grain as It enters the mnchine
and will accommodate only the pul
verized whent at tho exit.
-Tho wheat Is prepared by a thor
ough washing, nftor which about a
pint of tepid water to a pound of
grain' is ndded, and tho whole is al
lowed to stand about six hours. At
tho end of this tlmo tho grains of
wheat havo swollen to doublo their
ordinary size. It is tlien mixed
with tho yeast and salt and poured
into tho machine. It falls between
tho throads of tho moving screw and
of tho fixed contrary scrow, which
simultaneously crush tho cnvolopo
and body of tho grain,, making of
thorn a homogenous mixturo which
forms a smooth paste.
Bread obtained by this process
contains a succession of holes whoso
size increases as they approach tho
crust, which 1b thin. Tho odor given
off is most agrceablo and far more
pronounced than that of ordinary
baker's bread. Chicago Tribune.
