Nebraska Democracy Is trying aw
fully hard to loose BRYAN and
Bryanism. There's low, base In
gratitude for you! Just stop a mo
ment to realize that If It hadn't been
for BRYAN since 1S9C nobody
would know there vns a Democrat
in Nebraska any more than sane citi
zens believe there is a Democratic
majority, or the possibility of one,
in the Fourteenth Congressional dis
trict of Pennsylvania.
At Kansas City a league has been
formed to "perpetuate Roosevelt
policies." Leagues rush in where
angels fear to tread. What, just i
now, are Mr. Roosevelt's policies?
Louisville Courier-Journal.
Well, one of the present ROOSE
VELT policies, Col. WATTERSON, 1
or more strictly one of the present
ROOSEVELT efforts, is to help the
leaders of his party determine the
strongest man to run for governor
of New York in a probable contest
with an extra sagacious city Demo
crat whose friends are gradually
compelling him to believe he must
try for Albany first and for Wash
Ington afterward. Other R00SE-.
VELT policies can wait on the
straightening out of the state ticket
for the November campaign.

HOARD OF TRADE MEETING!.
This paper goes to press on Tues
days and Thursdays and the news
stories appearing in its columns are
always written with the word "to
day" applying to Tuesday or Thurs
day, as the case may be. The date
of the paper, whether Wednesday or
Friday, is, quite naturally and prop
erly, subordinate to the date on
which the news was actually made.
When, therefore, we say that the
Greater Honesdale Board of Trade's
public meeting will be held Friday
night in town hall, we mean tomor
row night, not Thursday night.
Friday, July 20, to be exceed
ingly explicit, is tile time. The town
hull is the place. Be there by 8
o'clock. The meeting is Kin; to be
called to order promptly.
The main thing at this meeting,
as we understand It, is to be the
talks by three prominent lawyers on
subjects that will bear a vital part
in the inception and subsequent his
tory of Greater Honesdale if we
have it. Taxation, lire protection,
school privileges on the part of the
suburban districts that would come
into the enlarged borough there are
topics for you that must be big with
interest for every man who wants
to see Honesdale have more area,
more people, more business, more
money.
This meeting will give tho citi
zens of Honesdale a clearer, more
comprehensive and more tangibla
understanding of tho scope and pro
jects of the Board than they have
thus far been enabled to glean from
newspaper reports. Tho objects of
thla new business body will be giv
en ample explanation by its officers,
and any man in the hall who wants
to ask questions will be at perfect
liberty to stand up and ask them.
There will bo Board members pres
ent who can answer any rational
question.
Tho Board wants you to attend
that meeting Friday night. Tho
Board wants you to hear what the
men promoting it have to offer in
the way of suggestions for a busier
and richer Honesdalo. The Board
wants you to mako personal exami
nation of its plans and purposes
and you can't conduct an examina
tion like that by absent treatment.
Friday night, 8 o'clock, In the
town hall.
HOME WEEK IS DEMOCRATIC.
This Is from the Tltusvllle Herald:
What an Old Home week Tltusvllle
might have! No town of the oil
country has sent out Into the world
more men of ability. If all of them
could bo brought back with their
wives and children to spend a week
here it would be worth some hard
work and sacrifice and expense. We
ought to plan for something of that
kind between June and September
of next year.
Aye; and the Old Home week's
worth while, even to towns that
never sent out any high nnd mighty
men to help this nation keep Its
place in the hemisphere. Old Home
week is essentially a democratic in
stitution. While it brings back to
the old spots men, nnd likewise
women, that have earned a reputa
tion in a larger field of activity, it
also calls home hundreds, yes thous
ands, that never have done anything
worth bragging about but who,
nevertheless, keep n little cosy corner
In their hearts for the, home of their
childhood and who are made better
and brighter by this reunion contact
with the scenes and the people of
yesterday.
No town should hesitate about
starting an Old Home week move
ment just because It feels It never
has sent any big bugs out Into the
world to take a limelight part in the
making of contemporary history.
Quiet, humble sons and daughters
are delighted and beneiltted by such
a gathering quite as much as their
more important brothers and sisters
that have been to Congress or to
California. Titusville, the core of the
Pennsylvania oil country and a city
that holds a great many aggressive
and successful people as well as a
clean-cut and profitable newspaper,
ought, as the Herald very fittingly
suggests, to arrange a reunion gath
ering another year if she cannot
get one in shape for this year.

The dispute over the wage scale
of the Pennsylvania railroad train
men ended as it was plain that it
must in a reasonable and satisfac
tory agreement. The public was
really not so much alarmed at the
thieat of a strike as it was dis
tressed at the signs of dissension in
a service It had learned to regard
with peculiar confidence. Both the
position of the company and the
general reputation of its men im
posed a mutual obligation to reason
and good sense, and it was impossi
ble to believe that unessential dis
agreements or misunderstandings
would bo allowed to separate men
whose interest was equally in har
mony. In this the public has not
been disappointed. The terms of
agreement are not important; it is
the fact of agreement that will be
received with universal satisfaction.

Next day a party talked about hir
ing an auto to go down thoro, but
tho auto couldn't bo had for that
day. Then they agreed to go to
Stroudsburg on tho train and I
hustled into my Sunday clothes and
got on the train, only to llnd tho rest
of tho boys had renigged, so I had
to go alone. When' they won't go
with you,, go yourself. Then I got
a man to paint tho words "dining
room" on my door and ho spelled it
with two N's, so that I am now tho
proprietor of a "dinning" room.

AUGUST.
Last year,
Alack and alas!
Beverly, Mass.,
And Bill on the Hat
Of his back In the grass
Sounding the depths
Of the opaline sky
And watching the clouds
Floating dreamily by.
Last year,
Alack and alas!
Beverly, Mass.
This year,
Sagamore Hill,
Strenuous still,
And no one complaining
For want of a thrill,
Shindy and sass
Just as certain ns fate
Beverly, Mass.,
Can dream early or late,
Snore as it pleases
And snooze as it will
This year,
Sagamore Hill.
Of August it may be said its
name is from Augustus, whom men
have likened unto Ted, perhaps with
out injustice. He made the world go
round about as many times a min
ute, and the news was always dull
without the great Augustus in it.
He had his Ananias club for liars
and for fakers, and he loved to sail
his little tub among the Roman
breakers. He counted peace a sort
of plague, and never did pursue It,
but let it rally at The Hague, and
you couldn't beat him to it.
He preached about the same old'i
things that Teddy has been preach
ing, and most of Rome's awakenings
resulted from his teaching. He bat
tled hotly for the right, and valiant
ly Imbued it, and the stork could
not attempt to light but what he
up and shoed it.
There was, however, one affair to
tell which is to tattle, and that was
where this Roman bear was coming
In from battle. He had, of course,
put everything opposing him to
slumber, and Rome awaited him to
sing some laudatory number.
But here the parallel desists. Au
gustus said them, No, sir! and when
he entered with his lists It might
have been the grocer for all the
greeting that he got from that ad
miring chorus, the which desire, of
course, was not a bit like Theodo
rus. But howsoever, when he died the
month that loves to grill us was'
being written far and wide the sea
son of Sextilus. They wanted to
commemorate the hot time he pre
sented the nation with, at any rate,
so August was Invented.
The dog days will resume again,
And the man who voted water
With the weather down to eight or
ten
Below will grow the hotter'
With wishing that ho had foreseen
The season hot nnd stewing,
And nothing but a choice between
Pink lemonade and bluing.
It will not strike him, we're
afraid, as when the cold was sting
ing, and up and down the wild
swept street the Icicles were cling
ing. There's nothing like a dry par
ado, the shouts of Hallelujah, and
the children skillfully arrayed for
what you want to fool you.
It's very easy to forget there's
such a thing as summer, or such a
quantity as sweat, what time the
busy drummer is rub-a-dubblng up
the street a million bumps a min
ute, and the line sweeps by with
rhythmic feet and the little shavers
In It.
At any rate, the world will spin
With very small pretens'ion,
And the Fall elections will begin
To clamor for attention.
The next few weeks will lire the gun
Repeatedly and oftly,
And a lot of folks begin to run
For olllce very softly.
The bold insurgent will have poll
ed tho principal chautsuquas, and
will by that time havo been told how
far discreet his balk was, or If to fol
low his attack with further demon
stration, or quietly to tip-toe back
upon tho reservation.
Tho hopeful Democrat will tool
this way and that way training, and
hope to havo us ns a rule havo none
of their explaining. He'll carefully
trim up his wicks and get his pump
pulsating, and pass tho grandstand
every six or seven seconds waiting.
There'll bo some dust put up, It
seems, when this event gets going,
nnd some things starting at tho
seams that wanted proper sewing.
No wonder Roosevelt came back, nnd
nowndays his gun is rusting in tho
shooting rack, when he is where tho
fun is.
Tho time of green and growing
things will near its termination, and
tho song tho thrasher sweetly Bings
will come with moderation. Wo'H
sort o' think of autumn tlmo, tho
hunter nnd tho nutter, nnd tho fish
ing hole will wear a sllmo as thick
as applo butter.
And then Septomber will return
In good autumnal fashion,
And the poet fall upon his harp
In something of a passion.
THE SAME OLD FIOHT.
Things In this congressional dis
trict begin to look very much like
they did two years ago. The Repub
lican forces will light tho straight
out battle for Republican principles
nnd party supremacy, and there- will
be no cant or hypocrisy In the con
duct W the campaign. A true Re
publican and a tried representative,
Hon. Charles C. Pratt, will lead the
light, and he will have at his back
the loyal electorates of this strong
Republican district. There will be
no evasion or deceit, and the ends
desired and striven for will be tho
continued ascendency of the Repub
lican party and principles In the old
Wlimot-Crow district, nnd the con
tinued support of President Tnft in
congress in his glorious fight for true
reform nnd progress In national af
fairs. The line of battle on the Demo
cratic side will be unchanged, but
events of the past few days show
that there will be unfurled a new
banner that of a party. The con
bined enemy's forces will be no more
numerous tharf they were two years
ago, and probably not so numerous,
but they will have one more flag,
and Reform and Kipp will be in
scribed on them both. We are not
yet fully advised, but Philadelphia
dispatches seem to indicate that one
"Honest BOB," a statesman from
Milan, who easily adjusts himself to
circumstances and who a few weeks
ago wanted to run for congress from
this district on the regular Republi
can ticket, with a more equitable
distribution of the postofflees for a
platform, will be constantly on the
firing line of the allied forces, riding
a well-lathered horse, and will strain
every nerve to get hit and probably
will succeed.
It will be the same old fight for
the same old ends. Same candidates,
