THOUGHT FOR TO-DAY.
To make the most of dull hours, to
make the most of dull people, to like
a poor jest better than none, to wear
the thread-bare coat like a gentle
man, to be outvoted with a smile, to
hitch your wagon to the old horse If
no star is handy that is wholesome
philosophy. Bliss Perry.
Mr. Flinn and his friends seem to
be getting all the fight they want out
of Senator Penrose.
THE OVER-PLAYED HANI).
The writing of tariff bills and
their passage over the President's
veto are composed of about one
tenth interest in the public welfare
and nine-tenths interest in getting
Mr. Taft in a hole. The Democratic
house has been perfectly familiar
with the President's attitude toward
the tariff. It knew that tho wool
and t'he steel bills would be vetoed.
But it was willing to sacrifice the
time and spend the government
money just to put the administration
upon 'record again. It was the ad
vertisement the Democrats were af
ter. There Is a possibility that this ad
vertisement, like the occasional one
chronicled In the commercial world,
will not only prove valueless to the
advertisers, but expensive to them.
The Democrats have put poor old
Papa Taft on the defensive. They
have caused him to make dignified
and laborious explanations when in
his heart he would have preferred
snatching up the mace, symbol of
supreme authority in the House, and
pecking each and every Democrat,
including insurgent Republicans, in
the eye with the eagle that sur
mounts it. Merely as a vetoer, Mr.
Taft might be represented as a
standpatter, a tyrant, the bulkhead
of special interest. But here there Is
likelihood of failure. Many may
draw mental pictures of Mr. Taft
bombarded with tariff bills, with no
weapon to fight back with save a
stub pen. Instead of a fierce, un
compromising excessive protectionist,
the President will seem to be a
martyr.
The houso should remember that
there is such a thing as overplaying
a good hanu. Toledo Blade.
THE PENROSE STATEMENT.
Boies 1'enroso's answer in the
Senate chamber to the chargo that
he accepted $25,000 from John G.
Archbold, of the Standard Oil Com
pany, was all right as far as it
went, but it did not go far enough,
and Senator Penrose is only follow
ing tho line of duty when he asks
that the people be given tho whole
truth.
The first statement showed that if
Mr. Penrose has been smirched,
William Flinn, the holier-than-thou
Pittsburg boss, and his saintly chief,
Theodore Roosevelt, havo been tar
red with the same stick.
Moreover, tho burden of guilt is
upon Flinn and Roosevelt, for Pen
rose was only following precedent
and doing openly what ho believed
to bo right when ho solicited cam
paign contributions from corpora
tions. Flinn and Roosevelt, on tho other
hand, havo always been loud In their
denunciations of this practico and
havo declared on repeated occasions
their profound conviction that it is
Immoral.
Theodore Roosevelt's preaching,
more than anything else, has arous
ed public antipathy to tho activity of
"big interests" in politics, and If,
whilo preaching In this exalted man
ner, be has been secretly indulging
the Citizen Publishing Company.
X. B. II AKDKNBKRrtll
W, W. WOOD
in practices which he proclaims de
spicable, Mr. Roosevelt is not one
whit less contemptible than the tem-
peranco lecturer who carries a flask
in his hip pocket.
Whether rightly or wrongly, the
public has been educated to believe
that campaign contributions from
"big Interests" must necessarily be
more wicked than tho contributions
from "little interests," and it is the
decree of public opinion that corpor
ations like tho Standard Oil Com
pany shall be absolutely severed from
politics.
Consequently, the discoveries that
have been made through the charge
of Flinn and his associates should be
fully developed, no matter who suf
fers by them. Mr. Fllnn's ardor
shows a notable cooling since the
publication of his telegraphic cor
respondence by code with Mr. Arch
bold regarding his ambitions to be
come a United States Senator. It is
significant that he does not deny the
correspondence, contenting himself
with insinuating that it is not genu
ine, whereas he flatly and vigorously
denies the charge that ho offered
Penrose and Durham J2.000.000 for
the seat. Mr. Durham is dead and
Flinn evidently imagines that it is
a case of Penrose's word against his.
This may be true, or Mr. Penrose
may have a few cards up his sleeve
He says that "others" were aware of
the offer, although It remains to be
seen whether they were aware of it
in a way to fit them to be witnesses
bofore a properly constituted invest!
gating committee.
At all events, Mr. Flinn appears to
have reversed himself completely and
to have lost all his fierce determina
tion to pursue guilt and throttle
" bossism," for his statement makes
no mention of pressing impeach
ment proceedings. On the contrary,
he intimates that since the present
exposure seems to have done Senator
Penrose more good than harm, he
must decline to "lend himself to tho
plan" by which the Senator conil
dently hopes to place the burden of
guilt where it belongs.
But the people of Pennsylvania are
not Interested In the protection of
either Senator Penrose or Bill Flinn.
They want to know the facts and all
the facts.
Mr. Penrose referred to certain
documents which could be produced
in proof of Roosevelt's duplicity,
Roosevelt is a candidate before the
whole people for tho higehst office in
tho land. Tho voters are entitled to
know what these documents show.
If they are mythical or unimportant,
Mr. Roosevelt has a right to demand
an official exoneration. If they are
bona fide, proving tho Rough Rider
a liar and a hypocrite, it would be
criminal to allow the electors to go
to the polls deluded and defrauded
Senator Penrose is right in asking
that ho immediately bo put on trial
for his honor and his office. Mr.
Flinn and Mr. Roosevelt Should be
forced to prosecute him or acknowl
edge themselves discredited and dis
reputable men.
The thine has gone so far now
that wo cannot, in fairness to the
cause of truth and decency, allow It
to go any farther.
Let us havo tho facts and all the
facts and let tho facts convict whom
they may. Harrisburg Telegraph.
ONWARD PENNSYLVANIA !
'Pennsylvania should find strong In
centive for immediato and continued
development of her seaport at Phil
adelphla in tho bitter complaints now
being voicod by tho commercial or
ganlzations of New York against the
lack of adequato facilities for com
morco In that port. Less than i
month ago tho trade bodies placed
themselves on record with tho state
ment that for two years tho Port of
Now York has been at a standstill
so far as Improvements are concern
ed, losing instead of gaining trade,
While Philadelphia and other Atlan
tic coast ports havo been going
ahead, their commorco Increasing,
" Tho fact Is," said tho Now York
Sun, in a recent editorial, "tho Port
of New York has loBt Its grain trade
It is fast losing Its heavy cargo
trado of all descriptions, Import and
export."
And the Sun, like tho commercial
organizations whoso action it quotes,
with that peculiar method of New
York reasoning by which natives of
that metropolis refuse to bcllovo that
causo or effect can have being bo
yond the limits of Manhattan Island,
saddles outlro blame upon tho city's
Board of Estimate for fnlllng to
mnko necessary appropriations.
The Board of Estimato may have
been remiss, but it cannot bo held to
bo wholly responsible. The truth Is
that the proposition has become one
beyond the remedy of that body or of
tho trade associations seeking to stir
it to action. Perhaps tho Board of
Estimate realizes what Now York
commercial interests nre too proud
or too blind to admit that the Port
of New York attained its natural
maximum efficiency two years ago,
and that further expansion can only
bo had by tho expenditure of mil
Hons of dollars, more millions than
tho Board of Estimate can appro-'
prlate.
Tho most recent protest came from
a meeting held in tho Now York '
Maritime Exchange, attended by
committees represetnlng the Cham-
ber of Commerce, the Merchants' As-' sketch of tho early settlors in this
sociatlon, tho Board of Trade and!Part f tho county that was very in-
Transportation, the Produce Ex
change, tho Manufacturers' Associa
tion and other powerful New York
commercial Influences. Said these
representatives In their plaint:
"The representatives of the lead
ing commercial bodies of Greater
New York view with apprehension
and disappointment the delay and in
action of the Board of Estimate and
Apportionment in its consideration of
the plans for harbor Improvements
submitted by tho Dock Department;
tho congested condition of portions
of the water front, and the heavy ex
penses entailed upon shipping there
by; the lack of adequate piers and
berthing facilities for ocean steam
ers, and tho consequently extreme
high rentals for piers available as a
serious handicap upon the trade and
commerce of the port.
New York admits the increasing
menace to its commercial supremacy
through tho competition of other
ports!
ANOTHER AUTO ACCIDENT.
One Man Dying And Five Others In
jured in Collision Willi a colt.
A lame touring car driven by Geo.
Sloane and occupied by six boarders
from tho Prospect Houso at wnue
Lake, ran into a young colt which
had strayed out onto the road on
Thursday night at Maplewood, near
Monticello, and as a result Isaac
Alnern had his chest crushed in and
Is in a dying condition at the Bolsom
House at Monticello. Mortimer metz-
cer had both lees broken. S. M. Kahn
had an arm broken anu tne otner
three were sllehtly Injured.
The accident occurred at Klinno's
Hill and after hitting the colt the car
swerved off the road and hit a large
stone, throwing all tho occupants
out. The colt died immediately.
When Mr. Alpern was taken to
Monticello he called a lawyer and
made his will, providing for his fam
ily and also for tho men who were
injured. Sullivan County Democrat.
"MENDACIOUS FRAME-UP,"
SAYS CHANCELLOR DAY.
Roosevelt's Related Refusal of Money
Contributed by Standard Oil
Conipniiy.
New York. That John D. Arch-
bold, of the Standard Oil company
told him and certain other friends
"in confidence" tho story he recently
told under oath of the Standard's
$100,000 contribution to tho Roose
velt campaign fund and the refusal
of the company to give up $150,000
additional, is the declaration of
Chancellor Day. of Syracuse Unlver
sity. in a letter to tho New York
Times. Day also says that Colonel
Roosevelt's letter to Chairman Cor-
telyou refusing Standard Oil cash
was written because Judgo Parker
had publicly charged that the great
trusts were furnishing money to
elect Roosevelt. In conclusion Day
says:
"Was there over a more mendaci
ous 'frame-up' than this refusal of
money that had been given and
spent nnd tho $150,000 that had
been refused? Nothing could have
been more opportune. It cost noth
ing. It left tho door open which
Col. Bliss, with Mr. Roosevelt's con
sent, had closed, much, however, to
tho chagrin of Mr. BIIbs, and It
answered Judgo Parker."

SANITARY HOUSES.
"A sound mind in a sound body,'
is mo om saying. Nowadays wo
add to this "and a sound body in a
sanitary house." If you intend to
keop well your homo must bo
healthy.
Tuberculosis is called a houso dis
ease, bo is typhoid fover. This is
becauso they so often occur In un
sanitary homes.
A houso is not sanitary unless it
has plenty of windows. It should
not bo a dump or any place where
old cans and rofuso aro thrown.
Thore should bo no stagnant gutter
water near It. Tho collar should bo
clean and dry so also should the
wall paper and tho plaster. If you
havo a cistern or a well, see that It
is not near a stablo or whoro filthy
water can drain into it. Keop your
garbage can covored. Seo that your
bath room and kitchen aro as spick
and span as your parlor.
Tho ill ventilated, dingy houso, in
bad surroundings is a breeding place
for dlseaso. Everybody ought to
know this. But you havo only to
walk down your street to seo how
many peoplo havo unsanitary liomos
in ono or anothor respect. Make
your motto, thoroforo, "a sound mind
In a sound body and a sound body in
a Banltary houso." Karl do Sch
