She is so crowded with gold, so full of play and magic spells, she has no work to do, and It Is she who trans forms the green woods and gray marshes to wonderlands of fairy fire, and brings the great pale moon back round and full night after night into the skies. Yes, September has a magic ! Illldegardo Hawthorne. PRESIDENT TAFT. Laboring under the disadvantage Imposed by hostile control of the House of Representatives and a hope lessly split majority In the Senate of the Sixty-second Congress, President Taft has had an unusually difficult course to steer. The majority In the House, ably captained, with a deplor able but thoroughly human Instinct has Insisted on "playing politics." The Insurgent Senators have bent their energies to play the devil. In the Congress the Republican party has been in a hopeless minority. Under these circumstances the pos ition of the Executive has been vex atious, trying and exposed to unusual dangers. It is to Mr. Taffs credit that he has sustained it without more concessions to tho expediencies of the hour or the necessities of the politi cal campaign In which he is engaged. He has been the President of the United States first and an intelligent partisan second. He has not been a trimmer, nor has he sacrificed his convictions because of clamor or mis representation. President Taft has made mistakes as every 'President must. But his es sential sincerity, modesty, good sense and strength of character aro con vincingly apparent. New York Sun. session. Hotchklss and Prendor gast, the two rival candidates, had locked horns for a determined strug gle when a somewhat spectacular character, known widely as "Sus pender Jack" McGce, mounted the platform and in an impassioned speech presented tho name of Mr. Straus. Tho idea caught tho con vention, tho delegates wcro swept from their feet, everybody was shouting for Straus, Hotchklss and Prendergast and Timothy Woodruff, seeing tho unavoidable trend of things, tumbled over each other to second the nomination and amid wild applause and enthusiasm It was made unanimous. Whether this nomination was tho result of a careful but secret pulling of the wires, or, as It appears to be, the unpremeditated result of a situa tion grasped at the psychological moment, does not now matter. It is in many respects an admirable one. Mr. Straus is a man of exceptional character and standing. As business man, philanthropist, cabinet mem ber, and foreign ambassador he has done distinguished service to his country and deserves well of his fellowmen. But the platform adopt ed by the convention, on which he is supposed to stand, will doubtless prove his undoing. The voters of tho Empire stato aro not yet ready to accept in all of Its eccentric and rauicai ieatures tne Roosevelt pro paganda. Nevertheless- it behooves the Republicans of the Stato to meet this nomination with one equally as strong. A REAL PRESIDENT. President Taft undoubtedly is winning the approbation of large numbers of his fellow country men by the dignified course ho is pursuing with relation to his candi dacy for a second term. While the Insatiable Third-Termer Is cavorting about tho country with his customary clatter, and tho Democratic candidate is Issuing daily pronunclamentos as to his atti tude on this, that or tho other sub ject, tho President is devoting his attention quietly to directing tho af fairs of tho government. Tho scant leisuro tho late adjournment of Con gress afforded, ho Is sponding with his family. The unparalleled campaign of abuse and misrepresentation waged against him by Theodore Roosevelt in advance of the primaries made It necessary for tho President for a time to enter tho lists and personally correct tho falsehoods uttered against hlmsolf and his administra tion, but as soon as It was humanly possible to do so ho quit tho stump and reassumed tho attltudo of digni fied aloofness from political Imbrog lio which, until tho days of tho Rough Rider, generally characterized tho occupant of tho iPersldontial chair. President Taft is hlmsolf again. Ho does not wish to bo President un less tho peoplo really deslro it, and ho believes they aro qulto capable of deciding tho question wisely, do spito tho din that is being raised In certain quarters.

L. B. Stillwell, of New York City, formerly of Scranton, claims this will be tho best proposition of the kind east of tho Rocky moun tains. The lake which tho dam will form will be fifteen miles long, four miles wide, and cover twelve thous and acres, with a total fall of 325 feet, yielding from 20,000 to 25, 000 horse power. This great lake is to furnish power for various In dustries, scores of which aro expect ed to locate here, and there will be an electric, power supply lino ex tended to the Lackawanna and Wyoming valleys, so that the results of this vast undertaking here will be felt scores of miles away. Tho concrete walk In front of Snyder & Freethy's pharmacy Is completed and tho store will soon have a new large plate glass front. The sidewalk in front of Wm. Schardt's property has also been raised. Our town Is progressing. Harry Plum Is 'making an extend ed trip to New York. Mrs. Curtis Wilds left this morn ing for a visit In Syracuse and Blng- hamton, N. Y. The new concrete garago of G. Watts & Son presents a fine appear ance. A recent visitor from Hones dale remarked that it makes our town look quite citified. We are glad that Honesdalers appreciate our efforts at improvement. The remains of Mrs. Owens, Sheffield, arrived hero Tuesday Interment. of for OSCAR S. STRAUS. Tho Progressive stato convention of Now York, held at Syracuse last week, nominated Oscar S. Straus as its candidate lor govornor. Tho nomination camo as a dramatic cli max to an otherwise uninteresting The result of tho stato election in vurmonc last, weeic is doubtless a fair indication of what tho result of the national election will bo in No vomber. After a vigorous campaign by all three of tho leading parties, the vote stood In round numbers about as follows: Republican 2C.000, Democrat 20,000, Progressive 15,- 000. An analysis of tho result shows that the Progressive votes camo entirely from former adher ents of the Republican party. Not only did tho Progressives fail to draw from the Democratic ranks, but tho Democrats, encouraged by tho three cornered fight, increased their normal vote by about three thousand. Neither party having polled a plur ality of tho votes, the election will be thrown Into the state legislature and as that is strongly Republican, a Republican administration for Ver mont is assured. The position of tho Progressive party in this campaign is strongly Indicated by the vote In Vermont. Its strength Is drawn entirely from tho Republican ranks. It cannot hope to poll as many votes as will tho Republican party. As in Ver mont, it can cripplo but It cannot kill tho party from which It separated. Tho only advantage to bo attained by any party as a result of tho Bull Mooso movement will accruo to tho Democrats. This was clearly fore seen when tho movement was in augurated. Not that tho leaders de sired Democratic success, but that Col. Roosovelt and thoso in his con fidence, had but ono end in view, and that was tho defeat of President Taft and thoso who supported him as against tho third term candidate. Whilo it is already clear that Col. Roosevelt cannot bo elected ho is still carrying on his campaign In tho hope of defeating nnd humiliating tho President and his administration by any means in his power, oven though it should lead to Domocratlc success and tho consequent ovils of froo trade. But tho Progressive movement has reached Its climax and Is now on tho wanu aB tho re sult In Vermont distinctly proves. And as its purposes and fallacies como day by day to bo hotter under stood by tho peoplo, and its strength dwindles accordingly, tho Domocrat lc hopo of defeating tho old-tlmo an tagonist of Democracy, 'becomes raoro and moro faint. Tho campaign of education is going steadily on, and long before tho day of the November election tho result so clearly fore shadowed in Vermont will be practi cally assured. DAMASCUS. (Special to The Citizen ) Damascus, Sept. 11. The latest Information is that C. D. Fortnam and bride were given one of the loudest serenades on wednes day night last that has been heard In these parts since boys were boys, Night was mado hideous until mid night by the use of various kinds of instruments, and weapons or war- faro. We welcome Mrs. C. D. Fort nam into our midst and wish for the new couple the best of everything that life can bestow. Mr. Fo'rtnam has brought his bride home to a well- furnished, capacious and substantial home and may they both bo favored with a long and useful life in it. Miss Faunlo Mclntyre, of Now Hamburgh, N. Y., is here visiting relatives and friends, to pass part of tho timo allotted to her as a vaca tlon. It is tho place of her nativity, and "there s no place like home. Miss Mclntyre has for several years been connected with tho Bow doin Charity School, of Now Ham burgh. This institution takes chil dren of destitute parents In tho East Side, Now York city, gives them a glimpse of a better life and a differ ent way of living, clothes them schools them whilo there and then returns them to their parents. There was at this institution at one time the offspring of a coupio both o whom wore deaf mutes, yet this child could both hear nnd talk and was as Intelligent as tho majority o children. It Is said, however, that ir such offspring should havo nro geny they would bo deaf mutes the same as wore tho grandparents. This school spoken of Is located on an eminence overlooking the Hudson river and about a quarter of a mile hack on tho eastern side. It has largo farm and poultry plant con necteu with It, yet there is not nro duco enough raised upon It for tho maintenance of thoso In tho Instltu tlon.
