Saturday will be a rod letter day for Honesdaio and Wayne county Republicans. Congressman JOHN K. TENER, the party's nominee for governor, will be hero to discuss the Issues of this 1910 campaign, and with him will come Congressman JOHN M. REYNOLDS, who Is run ning for lieutenant-governor, and HENRY HOUCK, the venerable sec retary of internal affairs, and CHARLES FRED WRIGHT, a man whom hundreds of Wayne county people know and like, who is on. the ticket as candidate for his first full term as state treasurer. This Saturday meeting in the courthouse means much to the Re publicans of Honesdaio and Wayne county. It affords them opportunity to meet and hear the next governor of Pennsylvania one of the fairest and frankest and most manly of men. It gives them the chance to hear him present his views of certain vital problems in this state that are now pressing for solution. It presents to them the very able and sensible can didate for tho second place in the state government a man not so well known in the northeastern as In the central and western counties, to be warmed by tho genial presence of Mr. HOUCK, the man whoso homo folks call him "tho sunshine of Leb anon valley," and to talk over old times in the Fourteenth congression al district with the forever affable and courteous CHARLIE WRIGHT from Susquehanna. The bright talking slated for that day is not to be all by imported tal ent, either. HOMER GREENE, the graceful speaker and writer of much more than statewide note, has prom ised to preside. And there may be a bit of speaking that thus far Is not down on tho bills. Saturday's publicmeetlng, both for quantity and quality of G. O. P. talkers, is going to be something worth while. Republicans and Dem ocrats and women are all particular ly invited, and everybody is urged to be there by 2.30, when the call to order will be sounded by the county chairman. No niggardly house should greet Mr. TENER and his follows. MOXHV FOR A HOSPITAL. The Honesdaio hospital movement titarts well. Tho women of tho bor ough and its immediate vicinity have taken hold of It with an earnestness and a determination to raiso tho money needed that bespeaks success if succoss is possible at all. They are confident they' can raiso $5,000 before Juno 1 and tho $5,000 they raiso beforo Juno 1 will bind that ?!i,000 which will under these condi tions como from tho treasury of tho state of Pennsylvania. Tho completed building will cost in tho neighborhood of ?1 8.000. Ten thousand dollars, five of it from tho state, tho other five from citizens of Honesdaio imbued with tho re deeming spirit of humanity and tho desiro to show in a practical way thoir compaction for tho sick and suffering, will bo a long step to ward tho total cost. Tho hospital has been and Is ur gently needed. Scranton Is 44 mllos away and Carbondalo Is 28 mllos, Both ridos nre by far too long for tho average patient requiring hospl tal attention. Cortalnly both are far and nway too long for tho patlont who facoB tho ordeal of tho opera ting table. Tho canvass for tho ?5,000 will commonco shortly. It will bo forcl bly prosecuted and overy good cltl zen and good nolghbor will contrlb uto his or her mlto to a cause that can prosent Us arguments with lit tlo verbal exploitation. Tho gen croslty of Honesdaio people, often tested, has novor been found want ing when such a heart-touching movement as this has been beforo the men and women of this com munity. Tho amount required Is not Inconsiderable, but It can bo rais ed If HoncBdalo people subscribe-, ac cording to their rotative ability. Wo bollevo they will do this freely and that tho first day of Juno will sco pledges to tho amount of 15,000 that can bo redeemed. CLEANING UP NEW YORK. One -good result of tho attempted assassination of Mayor GAY'NOR of New York is tho opportunity his ab sence from city hnll has afforded acting Mayor M1TCHEL and District Attorney WHITMAN to plan a thorough overhauling of the pollco department an overhauling thnt may mean tho decapitation of Police Commissioner WILLIAM F. RAKER, the man named In tho last month of the McCLELLAN administration nt tho behest of tho late Senator PAT McCARREN and other men close to the racetrack and general gambling Interests of tho greater city. Commissioner BAKER, who wns put in Mulberry street primarily to see that Coney Island did not wear too tight n Sundny ltd, has gone fur ther even than many of his support ers for the place believed ho would no: desnite the vigorous GAY'NOR Intnrfprpnro that had reached its height Just as tho Mayor got that well-nigh fatal ball on tho steamer at Hoboken, the town Is today al most as open as It was In the days nf nnnRUT A. VAN WYCK and WILLIAM S. DEVERY. Mr. MITCH EL In his short session as acting mavor has smelled enough of tho stench from Mulberry street to dis- cust him into the most drastic ac- tlon for which his office has author ity: and- Mr. WHITMAN has, it Is now believed, more real evidence as to pollco protection of gambling houses and Immoral joints than any of his nredecessors, not excepting the extraordinarily talented and in vnrinlilv erratic Mr. -WILLIAM TTt A VERS JEROME. An independent Democratic acting mavor and a Republican district at torney. the first man of that faith to hold office in Centre street these dozen years, are likely to give tho city the most thorough overhauling it has gone through since Dr. PARK- HURST and the Lexow committee in 1894 sent several millionaire inspec tors and captains off the force with out pensions and one or two of them behind the bars to reflect upon the ultimate foolishness of their finan cial transactions with certain classes of tho city's lawbreakers. For this .housecleanlng Mayor GAYNOR, dur ing whoso absence from city hall Mr. MITCHEL and Mr. WHITMAN got decidedly busy, is not likely to receive credit from thinking men in his party or out of it. Ho may try to emnloy the results of the com ing MITCHEL-WHITMAN crusade for his own benefit in the gubernatorial contest that Invites him, but Intelli gent men below the Harlem, and above It for that matter, are not go ing to be fooled. Mr. WHITMAN, in particular, has commended him self to the cordial support of the better element, both Republican and Democratic, In the city by tho com uloteness and sincerity of his efforts to rostore at least some semblance of Ciccency to tho downtown districts of New Y'ork, and ho has done his work quietly smoothly, expeditiouly, without tho assistance of a brass band. We rather expect Mr. WHITMAN, one of the most courageous and competent district nttorneys New York has ever had, will somo day go higher. He has the ability, the probity, tho industry, tho intellectual and moral .vigor to Jill a higher post. DON QUIXOTE GRIM is at it again. Having declared himself officially as against the public health, tho Democratic champion Is now seek lni in mnko an issue of tho State department of forestry. As a search er after weak spots in ms opponents nrmor, Mr. Grim Is not a great succoss. Harrlsburg Telegraph. And at what, pray, Is Mr. GRIM a great success? Principally, wo aro led from a somewhat cilroful perusal of newspaper reports to believe, in tho gentle art of getting out tho smallest crowd of "tho faithful" that over adorned tho bleachers at a rally In a candidate's home baili wick. Tho GRIM meeting in Doyles town not many days back had an en thusiastic attendance of 97 men by actual noso count and Bucks Is sometimes a Democratic county, nt that! GINGERSNAPS.

The chestnut stories will soon bo coming in. And tho rankest chest nut in tho bnskct will, as usual, bo the prediction of a complete Demo cratic sweep in a state always good for a G. O. P. majority running all tho way from 100,000 up to the half million mark. Needless to say that every Hones dale ballplayer, past and present, along with every now or has-been fan, will be in evidence Saturday, when John K. Toner, the man who roso from the box to a Congress scat and Is shortly to ndvauco from Wash ington to Harrlsburg, comes to look us over. The gubernatorial boom of the Hon. William Stiles Bonnet will not down. At least, the Port Jervis papers and tho New York Tribune will not let the Bonnet publicity rest. And by tho wny, the New Y'ork Tribune comes pretty near knowing what's what to the minds of tho men who havo the most to say about G. O. P. nominations on the other side of the Delaware. The punsmlth can get busy again. It's a bit too early to talk once more about the Gray of the early morn ing as applied to Democratic nation al convention hopes in Delaware, but Hoke Smith has onco more won a fight for governor of Georgia. We must soon expect to hear about "Hoax" Smith, and "Hokesmlth." and "Hocus Pocus" Smith three names freely applied to the old friend of Grover Cleveland nnd Dan Lamont nnd Dan Manning whenever he pokes his aggressive Fulton coun ty nose Into the limelight of Peach tree state politics. Col. Joe Daniels, Democratic na tional committeeman from North Carolina, ardent Bryanito, and edi tor of the Raleigh News and Observ er, long one of the Bryan Journalistic stalwarts in the Tarheel state, is rather sanguine that Gov.-to-be Hoke Smith of Georgia "may bo tho logi cal man for 1912, when a Southern Democrat might well be placed on the ticket, for vice-president any how, perhaps for tho higher office." At last we can see the weakening of the Bryan fences in the two Caro linas states that stuck fast to, tho Nebraska spellbinder when Georgia and Virginia, two far more intelli gent commonwealths, refused to stomach the fallacious Bryan theo ries of government any longer. When Joe Daniels, the personal crony as well as political supporter of tho thrice-belted knight of tho Platte country, goes looking else where for 1912 timber, wo can readily understand that tho final gravo of Bryanism has been dug in the states that lie below tho Poto mac and tho Ohio. It is, of course, quito too early in tho game to com pute tho electoral college strength of Hoke Smith, who might or might not annex votes to the 151 that aro ordinarily supplied by the solid South; but Hoke Smith could not give us any less of a run for our money than Mr. Bryan did in 1908 or would In 1912. That is all that so far need bo said. M"M-f -f ; KEYSTONE PRESS. No mnn should permit his Impetu osity to lend him Into bearing false witness against his neighbor.

Candldato Berry's remarks that "if the voters In nny locality believe the liquor business Is doing that com munity no harm, let it alone," has a strange sound to ears that heard him in 1905 nnd 190G endorse Prohibi tion platforms demanding stnte-wido prohibition with a party to enforce tho law. Venango Herald. WHAT IS HOSSISM, AXVHOW "Bosslsm," in the political sense of tho word, consists of one mnn, or two or three men, conspiring to gether to rule a political party, to select its candidates, and to secure their nomination. When a "boss" rules, the names of tho candidates nro, generally speaking, known in advance of the convention that nom inates them, and the convention simply meets to ratify the will of tho boss. In advance of the Democratic state convention nt Allentown Mr. Berry, Mr. Grim and Mr. Munson were spoken of as candidates. It is an old story and wo will not go through all the details, but you all remember that Mr. Grim received a majority over Mr. Berry after Mr. Munson's withdrawal, and this in spite of Mr. Berry's repeated threats that if ho was not made the candidate he would bolt and run on an independent ticket. In other words, Mr. Berry tried hard to force himself upon a convention that did not want him. He tried to work the "boss" racket for all it was worth and could not do it. When the Republican convention met there had been no mnn talked of for tho nomination for governor, and the convention proceeded to select one, and, as far as we can learn the choice of John K. Tener has been satisfactory except to an element that would object to the Angel Gabriel If he were nominated at a straight Republican convention. Well, Berry made good his threat to run independent, and a conven tion was called to meet at Philadel phia. It was understood from the very start that tho convention was called to nominate Mr. .Berry for governor That was all there was to It. It was a Berry convention, run by Berry. How is that for bosslsm? Tho night beforo the Keystone convention at Towanda Mr. Robert S. Edmlnston and Mr. George Wash ington KIpp held a seance and ar ranged a list of delegates thnt were to represent different parts of tho county, and fixed it up that Mr. KIpp should be nominated for Congress, and that it should bo by acclamation. It was done, just ns the political firm of KIpp & Edmlnston willed it. How ls thnt for bosslsm? As wo said last week, where two men nro working one of them is al ways the boss and tolls tho other what to do, and this runs right through tho whole courso of exist ence. There could not bo a "third party" movement without somebody to boss it. Berry 13 bossing It for tho state and Edmlnston Is bossing it for tho county. If Berry had been allowed to boss the Democratic party ho would novor havo inaugu rated this movement. If Edmlnston had been allowed to boss Bradford county for tho Republicans lie would nover havo joined in Berry's move ment, and would never havo pulled the wool over Mr. Kipp's eyes tho way ho has. Both men are defeated and disap pointed bosses, and both aro sucli poor sports that thoy can't keep an implied compact when they lose. A man who kicks and-refuses to pay when ho loses Is called a "welch or." Mr. Berry and Mr. Edmlnston aro political wolchers. Editorial In Canton Sentinol. Solar Plexus Blow to Lynching.
