Kill DAY, .JANUARY 11), HUli. THOUGHT FOR TO-DAY. it Is easy In the world to llvo after tho world's opinion. It Is easy In solitude to llvo after our own, but tho great man Is ho who In tho midst of tho crowd keeps with perfect sweetness the Independence of soli tude. Emerson. Tho last heard of tho man who prophesied an open winter ho was wheeling another load of coal Into his cellar. King George having left for homo, tho natlvo princes can now doff tho gorgeous raiment which has featured his presence in India. Of course thero is no significance in tho fact that tho Ualtimoro build ing In which tho Democratic National convention Is to bo held was onco used for prize flght exhibitions. That billion dollar company said to have been formed to pay off tho world's debts, seems to have annexed a wrong Idea If it should accomplish ;hat It has set out to do would not the world still bo In debt to tho company? Day by day thousands of voters who temporarily left tho party or stayed at homo on election day of 1910 aro regretting their actions and an nouncing their return to their party. They will bo found supporting tho candidate and platform of tho Chicago convention and when tho Demo crats wake up on the morning of November Cth next they will find that the rictory they are winning on paper now will' bo a stupendous defeat and that old time Republican politics and principles have prevailed. We now have facts from the Tariff Board regarding tho wool and wool en industry and those facts are soon to bo followed by others concerning cotton, steel and other industries. Tho Democrats, however, agree on one thing. They propose to ignoro all facts and frame bills that carry no pro tection whatever to our industries by which, to raise sufficient revenue, must permit the importation of enough foreign made goods to cripple every In dustry in tho land or force tho reduction of wages to the foreign level. RE ON TIME. No matter who you are or where you aro employed, whether It Is in an office, store or shop, be on time. If the watchman had been on tlmo and at his post at Torresdalo on the Pennsylvania railroad six persons would not have been killed a few days since. Did It pay? The railroad en gineer's chief aim is to bo "O. T." on time. Wo all can profit by an other's mistake, therefore, let us be on time and at our post when the un expected passes by. FEED THE QUAIIi. Farmers In rural districts are earnestly requested to feed quail in their territory, if they are to bo saved through this cold winter. Writing along this line, Erasmus Wilson, of Pittsburg, in his much quoted circular, "Save Our Quail," says. " Grain, screenings, ground feed, sunflower seed, chicken corn any eort of grain, will make a. feast for him. At this season of the year the same as you, he has a special liking for buckwheat. Can you 'blame him? " Every boy who knows where thero Is a covey of quail should regard it as a religious duty to seo that tho 'birds aro fed every day. Such boys will bo all the better men for doing this. This .HO was not on tho 'hill.

Ho didn't call mo a crook. Court adjourned at noon. When Court opened in tho after noon, Floyd Uortree was recalled to tho stand. He said if Swarts took tho $2.70 out of 'his bag on May 10 for the purpose of paying freight or for any other purpose it was his duty to make a record of It. According to Uortree. Swarts never accounted for tho $2.70. Uortree said that while the roll and money sometimes disagreed, such was not the case dur ing tho last two or three months Swarts worked there. Prior to this time, Uortreo admitted that ho con stantly found more money in tho liag than tho records showed. IIo didn't call Swarts' attention to tho discrepancy of tho roll and money, on May 11, because the money and the roll corresponded, and thero was no reason to call his attention to it. Uortreo claimed that thero was no record of sales to Alpha In that month. Swarts, ho declared, had no right to pay a bill without his con sent. About tho middle of February when tho monoy did not correspond with tho roll, Swarts was told that ho could keep It correct or quit his Job. After that, said Uortreo, his record corresponded almost to a cent. S. C. Uortreo was tho fourth wit- On cross-examination, she stated that sho counted $20.10 In tho bag in tho morning. Some was ln bills and samo ln chango. Mrs. Uortree, the seventh witness, and wife of Floyd Uortrco, sworo to receiving tho money, May 10, from Swarts, and seeing It counted. There was no cross-examination. Earl Savits. the eighth witness, swore that ho lived six miles from Ariel, and had dealing at Uortree's mill. IIo dealt with Swarts at times. 'Ho was at tho mill, May 12. He had dealings with Swarts that day. Swarts gave him a statement, which ho took home and gavo to his fath er. Thero was a mistake of 40 cents In his favor, and ho went back and paid Swarts. On cross-examination ho told of buying on May 12, 1000 corn, 2 Vj bu. oats, 300 middlings and 300 bran. IIo paid Swarts for that. Swarts charged him 4 0 cents less than ho ought to have done. Tho next day ho went back and paid him tho fortv cents. Floyd Uortreo was recalled to the stand. Ho Identified Exhibit v snow ing tho amount of business transact ed on May 12. 1911. Tho Tecord showed Savits paid $20. OS out that day. Tho slip Savits had showed $21.20. M. J.

Things wore not running to suit him, so ho was watching things. IIo sent Floyd out to find out what Alpha got. Thero was no cross-examination. Charles I,utz, tho fifth witness, tes tified to working for S. C. Uortreo & Son a part of last May. Ho saw Al pha thoro on May 10, botween 10 and 11 o'clock, and Identified Alpha ln tho court room. Tho witness wiib not cross-examined. Miss Elizabeth Gilpin, was tho sixth witness, and told of being nt Floyd Uortreo's, May 10, and count ing -ho money returned by Swarts that night and making a record of It. Ho returned $139.67 that night. Sho didn't find any record of $2.70 bill sold to Alpha that day. Howell and lira. Dortreo wore present when sho counted tho money. nut It In a bag.

Floyd Uortrco was recalled to tho stand, and told of seeing Emory count tho monoy on tho morning of May 12, when $18.32 wns given to Swarts. Ellwood Ammerman, now living at Gravity, but who resided nt Ariel on May 13, told tho Jury of being at tho mill on that date. Ho bought some thing of Swarts on thnt dato at 5 p. pulled out two slips.

Uortree. I went into tho case of tho Commonwealth vs. I his residence the next morning and G. W. Swarts, as associato counsel 1 asked where the bag was. Ho said for the defendant, added additional ho didn't know. I told him I gavo It interest to the celebrated Lako Ariel to him tho night before. IIo told me grist mill case, and tho seats in tho to go into the barn and look ln tho Court Houso were well tilled when hay loft. 'I think,' he said, 'you'll Court was opened at 9 o'clock, Wed- And it there.' I went thero and ncsday morning. found tho bag. For tho defense Attorney iranK r. -on another occasion I gavo It to Klmblo outlined his case to the Jury a. C. Uortreo. Ho nut it in his knit In a masterly opening address. Ho jacket. I hunted for tho bag next spoke ln part as follows: 1 morning. Ho said he didn't havo It. " Gontlomen of tho Jury: wo now j said -there It is in your pocket now.' propose to show you tho defense. It And he found it in the pocket of his is not a one-sided case. Wo will i;ukot. show you that tho defendant, G. W. , ! would deliver tho bag to Floyd that was settled. Then ho askml mn about somo hardware I bought at a Scranton store. 'Is that all?' I said. 'That's all I know of,' ho said. 'According to my account that's all I now of.' " "I asked him If that was a settle ment for everything. Ho said It was. I told him 'Mr. Holgato Is my attor ney. Floyd asked 'Do you want this check?' Mr. Holgate said 'We'll take that check as a settlement': took the check and gavo it to me. I remember Savits bolnir at tho mill on May 12. IIo camo there to buy feed. He showed mo I had made a mistako In a previous day's pur- chaso of 40 cents. I put the 40 cents In the bag. The correction would not appear on tho carbon copy. I was ln tho fire room. Ho had tho slip in his nanus i gavo mm tho day before showing the mistake of 40 cents. I added it to his bill. He took it with him. Many of them threw the slins on tho floor. Somo took them along. "urn you over tako any money of theirs u.e. Uortreo & Son's) and convert It to your own use?" No, sir. Swarts then went on to give some Idea of tho nature and character of his duties at tho mill, whero he was employed 7 years, 8 months and 20 days. "It was impossible to keep records ln the rush. When I was down in the fire room, they would come down and ask for money. Quito frequently thero was no record mado of it. It was tho practico of tho houso to call my attention to shortage. My trans actions expired at night. I never knew but four days when I knew how much money was in tho bag in tho morning or evening. For the last month or two nothing of any discrepancy was reported to me. I told S. C. Uortree when told about a shortage 'you know there is too much business for ono man to keep straight.' " It was twenty-five minutes past 11 o'clock, when Lawyer John T. Scragg took tho witness In hand for cross examination. Despite a merciless grilling ho could not shako the wit ness' story In the east. About all Mr. Scragg could get out of him was that ho was the "Ariel Poultryman," who kept chickens for commercial purposes, tended his poultry by lanternlight in the morning and had his son feed them at night. Swarts insisted that if Alpha paid him any money ho put it in, the bag. Court aajourneu at noon. Wednesday Afternoon Following the opening of Court at 1:30 p. m., Attorney Scragg kept Swarts on the rack for a full hour, firing a volley of questions at him. IIo succeeded ln bringing out several points favorable to tho defendant. "What record," said Swarts, "have I to show that I ever turned any monoy over? I never got a receipt at night." The defendant denied ever being told by Floyd Uortreo that he would have to quit his job, if he didn't keep his accounts better. Swarts Insisted that tho check of lust Juno was given to him as a settlement for everything he owed Floyd Uortree. Uortreo told him there was a balance duo him of $73. 07. "That settlement," declared the witness, "Included everything I owed him." Swarts left tho stand at 2:30 p. in. F. H. Curtis, Lako Ariel, testified to being at tho mill a year ago when Swarts was waiting on somo people. S. C. Uortree camo out of tho otllco and asked him tor some money. Swarts pulled the bag out of his pocket, gavo It to S. C. Uortreo who took it to tho office. Tho bag was not returned while tho witness was thero.
