Congressman PALMER says Col.
ItOOSEVELT'S African trip was
"spectacular." Look out for anoth
er undesirable citizen, another name
proposed for the Ananias club, now!
And now the real economical
young fellow will gently murmur
"Ice cream Is unhealthful, dearest,
for Dr. Wiley says so" and keep his
dimes for something else perhaps.
Talk about exciting life! Think
of- being postal clerk on an airship

Another job, this, for the news
paper writer so anxious about his

If the concrete benches are some
thing the hoodlums can't smash into
smithereens while you wait, by all
means let's have them in Central
park, in Riverside park, at the golf
grounds everywhere that plain, or
dinary wooden settees have been
banged and busted, chopped and
whittled, cut, slashed, stabbed, bit
ten, chewed and generally defaced
by fellows who should by good rights
spend their leisure time sitting In
a hog pen and not among the cus
tomary equipments of civilized rec
reation. Every public-spirited citizen will
plan to attend the public meeting of
the Board of Trade in town hall
July 29, when the Ideas of local
business men for developing the
latent resources of Honesdale will be
fully and frankly discussed. The
officers of the Board are thorough
business men, who propose to devote
as much time as they can to the up
building of Honesdale and Its con
tiguous territory. They solicit the
suggestions and support of everyone
who has the best business interests
of Honesdale at heart. Let the at
tendance at this initial meeting be
worth while, and let the man with
ideas be on hand to give them full
expression. That will be good citi
zenship as well as good self-interest.
Turn out and talk It over!
Stroudsburg is getting ready for
Old Home week and nothing else Is
talked about in that burg these
days. The idea is a popular one. It
costs something in time and money,
of course, but the pleasure and down
right happiness more than repay
those public-spirited citizens who
carry it into execution. Easton Free
Press.
Stroudsburg is going to have a
model celebration, judging from the
press reports that come from the
Water Gap settlement. There will
bo a regular parade and a baby par
ade. There will bo docoratlons and
bands and hospitality and fireworks
and perhaps a speech by Congress
man MITCHELL PALMER'S oW
friend from Washington and Mis
souri, tho Hon. CHAMP CLARK,
who really talks very well when off
his chronic Job of chief rainbow
chaser for the Hon. WILLIAM JEN
NINGS BRYAN and tho "radical"
Democracy. Thero will bo enough
doing in the way of plcasureseeking
and sightseeing and feasting to fo
cus all eastern Pennsylvania oyes on
tho quaint littlo town by tho Water
Gap no doubt at all about that.
And Honesdale Is going to help swell
tho throng that waits on tho big re
union and Jollification in tho shlro
town of Monroo county. Hundreds
of pcoplo who were delighted with
tho Old Homo week that not many
months ago was held in Honesdale
have planned to put In a part of
this week In Stroudsburg.
The third ticket will come In third,
and a mighty poor third, too.
I'm for the best man for governor
of my state. Col. Theodore Roose
velt. Good Lord, they're all best men,
ain't they? Ask any one of 'em!
Honesdale has a ball team that for
a little country place like this is more
than up to snuff. It is composed
of local boys who play because they
love the game themselves and, fur
ther than that, believe the town
ought to be represented on tho dia
mond by an aggregation that can
play fast games with anybody and
win tho most of them. We are glad
to notice that the ballgame crowds
are growing, but they ought to be
larger still. The White Mills games
and the Carbondalo games are going
to show Wayne county some ball
that Is ball. Let tho men and the
women, the boys and tho girls, turn
out and give Capt. Kupfer and his
boys the support they have earned.
THE STRENGTH OK HARMON.
Once more, let the Ohio Republi
cans take warning of the natural
strength and growing popularity of
Gov. HARMON and plan to oppose
him with the strongest man tho par
ty can produce from any of the 88
counties of the Buckeye state. Gov.
HARMON, who began his Job at
Columbus by cutting out useless
commissions that were costing tl.e
Ohio taxpayers thousands in real
money, has followed up a good sti t
by suspending from office the weak
kneed Newark mayor who, it ap
pears, made no effort to halt the
mob bent on lynching an antl-saloon
detective In the public square. Ohio j
sentiment today is all HARMON so I
far as the independent element, a'
growing factor to be reckoned with, j
is concerned.
Gov. HARMON, far and away r.he
strongest man the Democrats can
name in 1912, must be beaten in his
own state to keep him out of the
1912 convention. Silly Little NICK
LONGWORTH cannot beat him
Secretary JAMES R. GARFIELD,
badly mixed up in the BALLINGER
PINCHOT wrangle, might or might
not beat him. Senator BURTON
would be stronger, but even BUR
TON would not be more than even
money against HARMON at the
polls. If RALPH COLE were not
quite so much of a CANNON-PAYNE
standpatter he might do, but he
stood by Uncle Joe and Uncle Ser
eno and his Eighth congressional
district told him to go back and
practice law in Findlay.
It looks today as though the Re-j
publicans in Ohio would have to j
find a strong dark horse, and find
him in a hurry. Gov. HARMON;
must be defeated for reelection. We
expect to see him .defeated If the j
right man is found to run against
him In November. TAFT men and i
ROOSEVELT men in TAFT'S Ohioi
should get much busier than they are
today.
CLEAN-UP DAY'S THE THING!
Not many days ago The Citizen
felt called upon to administer a mild
bawling out to tho Bollefonte Dem
ocratic Watchman for the unmitigat
ed audacity that frequently sane and ;
always entertaining paper had dis
played In declaring that If GIFFORD
P1NCH0T should run on the third
ticket for governor of Pennsylvania
Mr. ROOSEVELT would "come over
to the Pennsylvania hustings and
stump for Mr. PINCHOT" In the
latter's attempt to down JOHN K.
TENER, regular Republican, and
WEBSTER GRIM, regular Demo
cratic nominee. It was an idiotic ,
notion, this, that Mr. ROOSEVELT, I
despite some characteristic radical-'
Ism at this as at all times, desplto 1
considerable sympathy on some
points with the Republican lnsur-1
gouts, would butt Into this state's j
campaign In tho effort to beat tho
Republican stato convention's regu
lar nominee; and wo pointed out tho
fact that, despite a whole lot of per
sonal love for PINCHOT and PIN
CHOT'S conservation policies, Mr.
ROOSEVELT is still with his party.
But wo like to givo the Devil his
duo. When a deluded Democratic
organ cuts clear of Its political
idiosyncrasies and commences to
arguo for any cause that makes for
local betterment, wo mean to mako
amplo noto of it. And hero Is what
tho Watchman says about clean-up
day In Bollefonte a day, or a move
ment, that received liberal boosting
space in tho Watchman's columns:
Clean up day, In Bollefonte re
sulted In such a gonoral effort In
cleaning up and clearing out that
tho ladles who had tho work in
cbargo have causo to feel greatly
gratified. Thero was almost uni
versal compliance with their request
and, except In a few cases, all of tho
residents of tho town accepted the
notice from tho respective commit
tees in the proper spirit, it was to
be expected that a few would bo Im
pertinent. There arc always sorao
down on a community and they
are the ones who must seize on just
such on opportunity to express their
disgruntled thoughts or make sinar
tics of themselves.
There's nothing like It, In Belle
fonte or nnywhero elsel The slick
ing up of streets and yards is the
advertisement that too many places,
largo nnd smnll, stand In need of.
Clean-up day, like Old Home week,
Is a long step toward the Improve
ment of every town that tries it.
Scores of Eastern towns that have
had a clean-up day propose to make
the yard-and-street-cleanlng period
nn annual function. There's a lot of
fun In the Job, and the good the
community derives, both from the
favorable Impression strangers re
ceive and in the comfortable sense
of being picked up for once in your
life, is incalculable.
NO CRIME TO HE A DEMOCRAT.
Now that we are approaching a
stato election we cannot resist the
opportunity of making plain our at
titude toward those who vote differ
ently from ourselves. Some very
stupid people seem to have harbored
the Idea in their little cocoanuts that
we want to see the Democratic par
ty perish from tho face of the earth
just as perished the Red Man from
the Eastern forests and the buffalo
from the Montana plains.
This Is not so either their think
tanks have run down or are moving
backwards. We should feel sorry
enough to see tho party planted by
the scholarly JEFFERSON and wa
tered by the rugged JACKSON sick
en and die from the neglect of its
own friends. No, we do not want to
see the Democratic party turn Its toes
to the daisies. What we do want It
to do is clean up and be respectable.
It is true that a few times we
have asked the Democrats to come
over in a body and vote the Republl
can ticket and make it unanimous,
but that was when they had no can
dldate of their own worth fopling
with no other time. Two parties
are just as necessary in a republic
as two stirrups are to a man's sad
dle, and, needless to say, both par
ties as well as both stirrups should
be sound as a second growth hickory
Everybody knows the Democratic
party has a habit of taking up with
strange doctrines, running off after
false gods, seeing ghosts, having
nightmares, ringing In false alarms,
and monkeying with the ballot box.
No wonder, then, that from a na
tional standpoint the people are
afraid to put any weight on the
Democratic stirrup.
We do not need the Democrats in
the Republican party so far as na
tional questions are concerned; but
we do insist on Democrats throwing
away their rag dolls and being big
ger men. Now and then a Democrat
gets his eyes open to tho truth of
these things and, wishing to align
himself with the party of progress,
bids his former friends a long pollti
cal farewell. He joins the Republl
can host. But this Is a sad picture
to contemplate. This, we think, is
the wrong thing for him to do. He
should stay In the Democratic party
and preacli the gospel of national
progress to the sinners of his
own political household. He should
Insist on his friends taking a step
forward and setting their eyes on
tho future, Instead of bragging about
the past, and help them to see tho
utter folly of clinging to dead Is
sues as well as trying to steal their
way to power when they cannot pull
enough votes to land them at tho
polls. He should point out tho fact
that a broad-minded, progressive
Democrat stands Just as high In the
estimation of his neighbors, and Is
ns highly respected by tho leaders
of tho Republican party, as a Ropub
lican himself. And he Bhould prove
this assertion by citing tho cases
where President Taft has appoint
ed progressive Democrats to
high positions in the government
President Taft's selection of
JACOB M. DICKINSON as a mem
ber of the cabinet and of Judge
HORACE H. LURTON, another Tennessee-born
Democrat, as a member
of tho Supremo court, furnishes
abundant proof of tho president's
realization that a healthful political
competition must bo rationally rocog
nized and that honest, wholosomo
Democrats who still adhere to tho
fulth of tho party's foundors have n
right to bo on earth.

BRIGHT LETTER FROM CAMP.
Co. E Boy Tells How Ho nnd Com
rndes Fnrefl nt Ucttysburg.
Of the state camp at Gettysburg
one of the Co. E boys wrote Sunday,
the day before breaking camp:
"Camp is very near over and the
boys are happy. The regiment ex
pects to leave here Monday morning
at 9 o'clock.
"The health, at present, of the
camp Is good, especially in Company
E. Several of E's boys were in the
hospital. They have all returned to
their company, the last one this
morning.
"The fore part of the week opened
up with a couple of severe thunder
storms and interferred some with
the order of things.
"The boys are to be paid in camp
the portion of their pay they will
receive from the United States gov
ernment. The state portion will be
paid after they are home. The fed
eral pay will be received Sunday
morning.
"The regiment will go to church
Sunday morning at 7 o'clock. Every
man must turn out.
"The boys are quiet tonight after
the big hike and sham battle Sat
urday, which practically ended the
duty for this camp. The hikes are
over; the only things yet to do will
bo church Sunday morning and dress
parado In tho evening before the
division headquarters.
"The camp was visited by another
thunderstorm Saturday evening, but
little rain fell and the storm passed
around.
"The Stato Y. M. C. A. tent is on
ono of tho Thirteenth regiment
camps and is very handy for the
boys. They are furnished with pa
per and envelopes free. All tho pop
ular magazines and many dally pa
pers are thero for the men to read.
They also have many different kinds
of games for their amusement.
"Tho Citizen was received in camp
and appreciated by tho boys, each
ono sayiug to another, "Let me have
a look."
"Tho boys have stood tho hikes
well, and their dlscipllnohas been
excellent.
"Tho Virginia troops who were
hero boforo us were a very rough
set, according to all reports.
Capt. Kelley Is the only officer of
the regiment who has a private tele
phono line. It connects his tent
with First Sergeant Faatz's tent. Tho
two aro separated by tho mess tent
and kitchen tent.
First Lieutenant Mumford hud a
4S-hour tour of duty as officer of
tho day In tho first part of tho
camp. This 1b a double dose. Sec
ond Lieutenant Doney was also offi
cer of tho guard In tho early part
of tho week.
"Sergeant Varcoo was sergeant of
the guard Friday.
"Corporal Doescher is sick In
quarters most of tho time. Nothing
serious, though.
"Tho boys had for dinner today
whllo on tho hike, Just the manoeu
vres of regulars and militia, a small
box of hardtack, black coffee In their
canteens, and a pleco of pork which
was most all fat. It was about ono
Inch thick and two by threo wldo.
It was a ration tho boys was not
used to.
"There was a flno concert In tho

J RIGHT OFF THE BAT. J
4444 f 444 44
I met a man the other day who
said to me "I wouldn't live anywhero
except on Main street." I said "All
right, if you feel that way about It,
but I'm satisfied to stop where I
do." Where do I live? I didn't say
I "lived" anywhere. I exist, like a
lot more. I exist in tho house on
Park street where I moved when I
was married, next door to tho old
place that has been tho homo of tho
Browns for 43 years, and the view
of tho Lackawaxen In front of the
door, with Irving Cliff looking down
on the stream and the street, suits
me. I tnlked with Dr. Brady about
it, and ho admitted that the Hones
dale man who quarters his family
along the Lackawaxen In that part
of the town has landed in God's
country. J. Sam Brown.
If anybody should ask you about
it, I'm thinking of taking out a card
In the International Union of Mop
Swingers and Housecleaners. I
mop up the store floor with such
signal success that I was promoted
to a higher floor of ex-Congressman
Jadwln's building and there I help
ed clean up the office Judge Wilson
occupied 40 years. They had a
woman to wash the windows and
scour the paint and all that, but I
was the man with the mop. And I
worked hard. If that's the regular
experience of a man who has to clean
up after a lawyer moves I can truth
fully say I dop't want any more
lawyers In mine. John Crogan.
Talk about It being hot! Why,
you fellows up here in Honesdale
don't know what hot weather Is! It
was 102 In Boston one day last
week and It was 98 In Providence,
