I
Wanted Good Roads 1
Dear Editor:
I thought I would make a kick
about the roads. We have no more
roads; nothing but rocks and
stones. I think that If they would
take some of the money that they
have wasted building graded schools
with and use It for the roads, It
would be much better. Besides
they are all growing up so that they
are not passable. That shows what
kind of township officers wo have.
All they care for Is what they can
get out of it instead of trying to
make good roads.
Yours very truly,
SAMUEL McLAIN.

In the appointment of District Attorney Myron E. Simons to. the United
States Commisslonershlp of Wayne county, Judge Wltmer has showed him
solf a student of character. It is the belief of The Citizen that no man
better fitted for the position could have 'been selected. The Citizen con
gratulates Mr. Simons on 'his appointment and wishes him success.

THE LII5UAHY.
The Honesdale Public Library proposition is meeting with universal ap
proval. The library located in the High school building, excellent as It Is,
could not begin to meet the requirements of the 30,000 residents of Wayne
county. In many quarters it is felt that there never even ought to be a
library in tho school building, as it Interferes with the school work. A
large number of persons entering the building Is bound to distract the at
tentiou of Children and teachers alike.
Honesdale is blessed with a 'beautiful, costly and commodious school
structure, and It should be exclusively dedicated to the education of her
youth. A library is for adults and older members of society. The need
of such an Instrument of education is greatly felt not only in the county
seat but throughout the shire.
The location of a large and imposing structure in Honesdale, equipped
-with travelling library facilities, Is bound to 'bring the people of the coun
ty into closer touch with and cause them to take a greater interest in their
county seat.
Such a place of resort, fitted with all the modern conveniences, will af
ford a place where visitors may at all times feel at home.
It is a startling fact, that there aro absolutely no public comfort stations
in Honesdale. A centrally located library would supply this and other
conveniences, which are absolutely necessary for the comfort of people
coming to the county seat.

A SUGGESTION.
It will 'be 82 years the 8th day of August next, 1911, since the "Stour
bridge Lion," the first locomotive to turn a wheel on the American conti
nent, made its initial trip at Honesdale on the Delaware and Hudson rail
road, and to this day, we are sorry to report, there is not so much as a tiny
shaft to mark tho place of this 'historical event. Nor Is there any monu
ment erected to the memory of Horatio Allen, the first locomotive engineer
on the Western hemisphere who opened the throttle on the "Lion" on the
above mentioned day and made that memorable run.
This notable event Is a distinction of which Honesdale cannot be de
prived. Truly, it is an honor to live In a town where the first locomotive on
this broad continent first turned a wheel. Is the present generation of
Honesdale satisfied to let tho matter of erecting a monument commemorat
ing this great achievement go unforgotten? Emphatically no! The town
possesses many public-spirited citizens, citizens who have always had civic
pride at 'heart and are willing to help a worthy cause. This we deem a
worthy cause, one that appeals to everybody and In consequence we would
like to see the townspeople take an active Interest in it.
To-day this land is a network of railroads. Prom about thirty miles
82 years ago the trackage has increased to 242,470 miles in the United
States alone, not mentioning .Canada, Mexico and other countries outside
of the United States on the Western hemisphere. If these 242,470 miles
of representative railroads were extended In a straight line it would en
circle the earth more than nine times.
In the face of this The Citizen wants to offer a few suggestions and In
turn If the reader has any suggestions to make, The Citizen will publish
same In its People's Forum.
The matter of erecting a suitable monument to commemorate this event
has often been suggested, but as yet no definite plans have been made or
active Interest manifested.
In September Honesdale is looking forward to tho arrival of two dis-
tinguished and famous guests, Former President Theodore Roosevelt and
Governor John K. Tener. Their visit here will be in connection with the
dedicatory exercises of the new State armory. It would appear that no
more fitting time could be selected to unveil' a monument, which would
be an epoch in Honesdale's history and something that would never be for
gotten. It has been proven beyond a shadow of a -doubt that the Delaware
and Hudson railroad was the first companv to operate a locomotive upon
, celebration of this event. It would seem, In our opinion, that there be
was the Stourbridge Lion. This being a settled fact it leaves no loophole
for another town to claim the honor. Even John B. Pangborn, one of the
high officials of the Baltimore fi, Ohio Railroad company, whose road has of
ten been credited with the honor of being the first road to operate a loco
motive, says:
"There Is absolutely no question of the Stourbridge Lion being the first
locomotive to turn a wheel on this continent, or of Horatio Allen's distinc
tion as the pioneer locomotive runner."
Now that we feel satisfied as to that fact, we ought to lay plans for the
bratlon of this event. It would seem, in our opinion, that there could bo
no more fitting design for a memorial of this kind than to make the repre
sentation of the Stourbridge Lion In Barro granite with a figure In the
same stone, marble or bronze, exhibiting the Imago of Horatio Allen, with
his hand upon the throttle of the locomotive. Underneath could be the
inscription.
There is no place more appropriate for the location of this proposed
monument than in the new Torrey Park, on the west side of the State
bridge. It is in sight of and but a few hundred feet from the place whore
the event occurred. If It were erected on the site where the Initial trip was
made scarcoly anyone would see it and besides It would be in dangerous
quarters, being near the railroad track, which is an undesirable place. If
It were in the park everybody could visit It.
The plan of procedure In raising funds would be simple. In fact, we
do not believe there is a person in the town who Is not public-spirited
enough to contribute something. Lawn socials could be held, the school
children could help hy giving a penny a week for an indefinite period
and contributions from former residents of Honesdale, whose relatives
were formerly affiliated with the Delaware & Hudson road officially or
otherwise, ought to be Interested. At any rate let us work together and en
deavor to create public spirit among the members of the Ladles' Improve
ment Association, Board of Trade, Business Men's Association and towns
people in general for tho culmination of this worthy, and alas, forgotten
duty.
Tho Citizen respectfully suggests, that the Mayor appoint a committee
to estimate cost, decide on a site, etc., etc., and to head the list of sub
scribers, The Citizen hereby pledges the sura of ?10.

Death of Ralph F. Howard.
Ralph F. Howard, Thompson, well
known In Wayne county and espec
ially In the northern part of the
county, died suddenly last week
from a stroke of apoplexy. He was
born April 10, 1846, at Rockport, N.
Y., and was mustered in the army
March 16, 1864, and was discharged
November 9, 1864. He was a mem
ber of Battery F, 3d Artillery. At
the close of the war he went to
Starrucca where he lived from tert
to twelve years. He has been a res
ident of Thompson since 1894. Mr.
Howard was president of the board
of trustees of the Thompson Metho
dist church. He Is survived by a
daughter, two brothers and one sister.
Death Of Harry Mills.
Harry Mills, the well-known mer
chant of Creamton, died at his home
there Sunday morning about 11
o'clock, from heart trouble and
dropsy, aged 64 years, two months
and sixteen days. His parents were
Mr. and Mrs. William (Durry) Mills,
who were born In England. Mr.
Mills for many years followed the
occupation of farming. Before go
ing into the mercantile business, ho
conducted a meat market in Mt.
Pleasant. His widow survives. Fu
neral services were held .it the

Rose hit the ball for one base. Boa,
fourth and last man up, was out on
a grounder to Southpaw Male. No
tallies.
Hawley tied tho score in the third
inning. With one down, Butler
singled, stole second. Wilson
doubled, putting a man on third and
one on second. McNamara got to
first on Polt's error, Wilson scoring.
Rose beat out a grounder to first,
McNamara scoring. Bea was an
easy out.
In the fourth inning Hawley scor
ed another run, and repeated the
trick In the fifth. Honesdale did
likewise' In the sixth and tho score
stood 4 to 3 In favor of Hawley at
the end of the session.
It was In the "lucky seventh,"
however, when Honesdale made Its
big killing. No less than seven hits
were landed by the County Seaters
In that eventful Inning, for a total of
nine runs. Fourteen men faced
Pitcher Butler In that swatfest mati
nee and batted him out of the box
It must be admitted, however, that
Butler s support helped the good
work along. It was rotten.
After the seventh inning first-
baseman Bea was put in to twirl for
Hawley, Butler going to centre, and
Gilpin to first. Bea had no control
whatever, making three wild
throws, and handing two more runs
to Honesdale.
Hawley made another in
eighth; but it was too late in
day to hope to stem the tide.
