TUESDAY, JANUARY 28, 1013.
President Taft's welcome in Phil
adelphia showed onco moro that he
Is far from a "down-and-outer," and
that whatever the people may have
thought of him as a President last
November, they respect and admire
Ihlm as a man. His speech at the
Clover Club dinner, like his celebrat
ed "swan song" In New York, prov
ed again his rare good qualities as
a loser. Mr. Taft is too big, too
courageous and too able to remain
long under a cloud of popular dis
approval. UNEXPECTED ACQUIESCENCE
(Although the indignation of Dem
ocratic members of the Legislature
over the resolution presented by Sen
ator William E. Crow, of Fayette
county, was not unexpected, it is de
cidedly inconsistent.
The Democrats professed to be
lieve that much money was being
wasted by the State in useless em
ployes and in salaries out of all
proportion to services rendered.
They favored a commission on econ
omy and efficiency to look into the
whole matter and make a report.
Senator Crow, -without waiting for
them to formulate a plan of action,
presented one of his own, which cov
ers the situation completely.
If it is the object of tho Demo
crats to save money for the State,
It should bo immaterial to them on
whose motion action is taken. They
should be rejoiced, not peeved, to
find the majority members so ready,
to lend their support to anything
which promises greater efficiency
and economy.
"Credit for any group or individ
ual Is not the main thing, under the
Democratic declaration of, principles,
hut the "welfare of the people," the
"best interests of tho State," "econ
omy and efficiency," without regard
to personal advancement or glory.
This being tho case, tho Demo
crats should lend, not grudging, but
enthusiastic, support to tho Crow
resolution. Harrisburg Telegraph.
SHALL LIQUOR Oil LAW RULE.
For fifty years a certain measure
has been before congress in some
form or other. It has been side
tracked and strangled and pickled
and smothered and often left for
dead. But it is still there, more
Insistent than ever.
In Its present form this measure
Is known as tho Kenyon liquor bill.
It is described in Its title as a "bill
to prohibit Interstate commerce In
intoxicating liquors in certain cases."
The certoin cases are those in
which any state has decreed under
its police power that there shall bo
no intoxicating liquor sold within its
borders or within any part of its
territory. All that the Kenyon bill
asks is that in such cases the federal
government shall not defeat tho will
of the people of that state by forc
ing tho stato to accept liquor ship
ped from the outside.
In a speech In the senate, defend
ing his bill, Senator Kenyon set
forth tho principle Involved as fol
lows: "I am not concerned at all with
the question of whether a state In
tho exerclso of its police power
might adopt a law prohibiting tho
manufacture or sale of intoxicating
liquors. If It does so, It ought to
be able to make tho law effective.
If It adopts tho contrary policy, it
should be permitted to makp that
effective."
Some time ago it was agreed that
the bill should come to a vote In tho
senato on January 20. But action
has again "been deferred through the
vermicular maneuvers of tho Mor
mon Smoot. Smoot, next to Penrose
is the ablest champion that tho foes
of tho hill, tho law-defying liquor
Interests, havo in tho senate.
A very largo part of tho popula
tion holleves that the sale should bo
prohibited by law. Of thoso many
are moved by moral reasons primar
ily. They hold alcoholic liquor in
abject horror and hurning hate as
something endowed with tho power
to wreck earthly happiness and to
destroy man's Immortal soul itself.
Other advocates of tho prohibition
of the liquor trafflc base their posi
tion on economic, social or scientific
grounds.

On tho other hand, there is a large
part of the population perhaps a
majority who believe that tho sale
of liquor should be permitted every
where under restrictions. The most
pronounced defenders of this propo
sition aro those who believe the
right to buy or sell liquor is an in
herent American privilege, not to be
abridged except for necessary ex
cise regulations.
Recent times reaching to the
present have seen the greatest pro
gress made by the forces ranged
against the sale of liquor.
Wo see tho growing knowledge of
the dangerous character of this traf
fic. Its record of devastation is a
scar across tho face of civilization.
The manhood It has wrecked, the
homes It has ruined, the women it
has wrung in hopeless sorrow and
the other women It has hurled in
nameless shame, tho children it has
starved and murdered these are
the witnesses against it.
Speaking to tho liquor Interests,
we say that the more they fight the
Kenyon bill, which represents the
will of the people, the moro It be
hooves them to cast about to find
some other business for their chil
dren to follow. For as sure as light
dispels darkness, the day is coming
when tho country will bo awake to
the truth that there Is nothing in
liquor domination which Americans
will tolerate if they hope to remain
a nation of freo men and women.

PENNSYLVANIA STATE COLLEGE
With the great Impetus given the
past few years to the tilling of the
soil through the Federal Govern
ment in the Department of Agricul
ture, the Stato boards, the special
literature sent out, the newspapers
devoting special departments to
poultry, fruit, grain, etc., with the
railroads sending out instruction
trains, the formation of boys' clubs,
Granges, institutes, etc., there has
arisen a great demand for better ed
ucational facilities, whero scientific
and intensive farming may be stud
led by tho youth, In a practical as
well as theoretical form.
Stato colleges have sprung up Into
great popularity, and they are doiug
a tremendous work for tho future, In
teaching and turning out young men,
that aro revolutionizing the obsolete
methods and making grass and grain
and fruit grow whero none grew he
fore, or in doubling, trebling and
quadrupling tho yield, through ap
plying science and head work to till
ing. President Sparks, of State College,
in presenting his annual report to
tho trustees, shows that there are
2,44 C students enrolled In the col
lege this year, of whom 973 aro in
the school of agriculture, 742 in en
gineering, 1C3 in chemistry and 98
In mining. During the past ten years
the number of students has Increas
ed 400 per cent., the available state
appropriation 72 per cent., and tho
'buildings 2S per cent. Owing to tho
growth and lack of necessary funds
the college has lost many valuable
Instructors during the year. In or
der to cut down tho number of stu
dents, It was necessary last Fall and
tho year previous, to make tho ad
mission moro difficult by raising the
standard of the examinations. The
school has been unahlo to extend its
work or to send out agricultural or
good roads trains, or to meet tho
actual needs of carrying on tho nec
essary work as it should have been.
Our people aro proud of tho work
being dono by tho Stato College, and
desire to have its usefulness extend
ed, and its buildings and instructors
added to amply meet all demands by
an unlimited number of pupils. Sure
ly with the great cash box of tho
State overflowing, tho present Legis
lature Is in position to nmply pro
vide funds for all necessities of Stato
College, and Its enlargement. As
long as graft and politics are kept
out of tho school management, tho
taxpayers will heartily second tho
greater appropriations asked of the
Legislature by the trustees of the
State College. Scranton Times.

of Scranton, was attending to busi

PROSPERITY NEVER EQUALLED.
iBaslng their estimates upon the
materials Imported for manufactur
ing purposes and upon tho movement
of domestic materials from the points
of production to tho factories, offi
cials of tho Federal Bureau of For
eign and Domestic Commerce havo
arrived at the conclusion that Ameri
ca's industrial prosperity for T912
was never before equaled In tho his
tory of tho country.
The verdict Is born out by all
methods of measurements, national
and local. One of the Philadelphia
newspapers has a correspondent in
vestigating conditions in various
States. He writes from Chicago
that a State street property has just
toeen leased for ninety-nine years for
$30,000 a front foot a rental which
Is without precedent, even In Chi
cago. In view of these facts, It seems
little short of a crime for Demo
cratic leaders and newspapers to be
continually harping on tho dangers
of a panic. If they keep it up long
enough they may 'bo able to produce
one, but it will he a panic with
which Republican policies and the
Republican Administration now
closing will havo nothing to do.
Republicans everywhere are exert
ing themselves to the utmost to keep
business in a proper frame of mind.
The only panic talk one hears now
adays comes from tho Democrats.
A YEAR OF THIRTEEN MONTHS.
An international conference was
held In Switzerland for the consider
ation of the adoption of a perpetual
calendar. The change proposed
would make the year consist of thir
teen months of twenty-eight days
each, making a total of 304 days a
year. The day left over would not
be counted In any month, but would
precede January 1, and he called
Now Year's Day. In leap year the
extra day would not be counted In
any month, hut would follow the last
day of December. The new month
would occur between June and July.
As an illustration of how this
would work in practice, let us be
gin with the year 191C, which will
commence on Saturday. This day In
the now calendar would bo simply
tho opening day of tho year; Sun
day, would then be the first day of
January.
Each month in the year would
have an equal number of days
twenty-eight; the months and the
weeks would always begin on Sun
day and end on Saturday, so that
any particular week-day of the
month would fall on tho correspond
ing day of the next and of each
succeeding month. It would then
not be necessary to have a calendar
for each month, as the days of each
month would be Identical with those
of the first month. Harper's Week

IS WELCOMED.
Harrisburg, Jan. 27. Anticipating
the filing of charges of mismanage
ment of the State Highway Depart
ment and a request for an investi
gation of the conduct of the office,
State Highway Commissioner Bige
low has announced that he Is pre
pared to submit to the Legislature a,
detailed report of his stewardship
since his induction into office.
Investigators have been at work
for weeks probing tho department,
and Flinn sympathizers have been
predicting that damaging evidence
will be submitted to justify their e
mand for a probing commission.
Commissioner Bigelow made his
statement regarding his readiness to
open up the books of his department
following the Introduction In the
House of a resolution by Horace C.
Earner, Democrat, of Cumberland
county, which was unanimously
adopted.
The resolution recites tho fact that
no report has been mado to tho
Legislature of tho work of the State
Highway Commissioner since the last
session of the general assemhly, and
sets forth that largo sums of money
have been spent by tho department
and that a full knowledge of the
work done is desirable In order that
tho Legislature may bo enabled to
consider intelligently legislative mat
ters affecting the department.
Then follows a call upon the com
missioner for information covering
all expenditures, the names of all
contractors, the location of roads and
other details, Including a full list of
employes with salaries paid and ex
penses of all kinds, including cost of
materials.
" I shall cheerfully give all tho in
formation desired," said Chief Bige
low, last evening, " and welcome
any investigation of the administra
tion of this department."
While from tho Flinn camp come
Intimations that an effort Is being
made to forestall the attack which
the Independents aro expected to
make upon tho department, the ad
ministration leaders say Chief Bige
low is prepared to meet any movo
that may be made against him.

Jn a recent article under this cap
tion wo called our merchants' at
tention to parcel post and what It
would mean to them providing the
privileges offered vero carried out.
This subject Is so important and
timely that wo feel tho storekeeper
who does not tako advantage of the
parcel post to extend his business
will loso money. You can develop
your business among the rural dis
tricts by advertising what you have
for sale In tho papers (wo, however,
would like you to patronize The Cit
izen.) Almost every farmer has the
telephone In his home over which
he can conneot with your storo and
order his goods. Many stores have
given the parcel post a test and are
satisfied with results. It has made
many happy and pleased customers
and this counts.
After all ono of the most suc
cessful methods of using tho parcel
post is by advertising. By display
ing your wares in The Citizen in an
attractive stylo you can bring the
purchaser direct to your store.
Every day can be made a bargain
day through tho parcel post.
Direct connection between tho con
sumer and the producer may be es
tablished by this system. In Eng
land the business possibilities of tho
parcel post are well understood. The
London newspapers run a depart
ment headed " Bargain by Post."
The Parcel Post Department of The
Citizen will answer the same pur
pose for you.
Department merchants In Hones
dale, the milliner, tho haberdasher,
the druggist, tho shoe dealer and
the hardware merchant will show
the farmer that he can select his
purchases from the more ample
stock of their stores and get these
goods through the parcel post ser
vice at prices which will fairly com
pete with the metropolitan mall or
der -houses.
The Citizen has a select numher
of parcel post advertising cuts in
stock for the use of the local mer
chants to boom their trade through
the new parcel post system. We
have the exclusive use of these cuts
in Honesdale. In order that you
may have some idea of what the
cuts are wo herewith reproduce one
as a sample. Proof sheet may be
seen at The Citizen office.

TO IMPROVE STATE HATCHERIES
Representative Peters Has An Inter
esting Interview With tho Com
missioner of Fisheries.
Harrisburg, Jan. 27. During an
interview with N. R. Buller, Com
missioner or msneries, relatlvo to tho
establishing of a Stato Hatchery for
tho Delaware Valley Water Shed be
tween Bushklll and Lackawaxen, I
drow from him tho following facts
which may be of interest to tho read
era of your paper:
Mr. Buller Informs mo that the
old hatcheries have to 'bo entirely
reconstructed on now lines, incur
ring a largo expense, for which ho
expects to ask an Increased approp
riation of $G5,000, from the Legis
lature. Ho expects to confine his
work to six hatcheries, the ono at
Pleasant Mount, Wayne county, is
whero he expects to furnish tho fish
for our district. Hero ho expects to
Increase tho output to a very great
extent. Sixteon acres aro to be de
veloped in ponds to give the fish tho
proper growth, so that when they are
planted, they will bo a'blo to take
caro of themselves. From here he
expects to supply tho adjoining
counties with Trout, Bass, Wall-eyed
Pike.
At Bellefonte, Center county, will
bo tho central distribution of the
stato. This will bo enlarged and
will bo used exclusively for Brook
Trout, as will the ono at Corroy,
Erie district.
At Erie City an auxiliary hatchery
will ho constructed exclusively for
lako fish.
Union City, Erie, there will ho
also another auxiliary constructed
for tho purpose of propagating lake
fish. Tho llsh Industry of that lo
cality for lake fish Is very large.
Mr. Buller says that ho wants the
State to take active measures In pur
ifying tho streams and prevent adul
teration. There aro now ton con
stabularies or wardens to look after
these Interests. He wants that num
ber increased to thirty (30) and havo
a careful report mado from each
county of all pollution. For this ho
expects from tho Legislation an ap
propriation of $80,000, an increase
of $50,000 'from tho present appro
priation. At the present time he has plenty
of trout and hass for planting, and
la anxious to have the applications
for their distribution as quckly as
possible.

VOGEL'S MINSTRELS COMING.
An occasional visit of a minstrel
show is a good thing for the thea
tregoer. Wearied by a continuous
course of problem plays, lurid melo
dramas and musical comedies, the
stately presence and sparkling con
versation of tho interlocutor appeals
restfully to him, while tho familiar
quips of the end men are hailed as
old friends returning from a long
journey and it is very lovely. This
statement is especially true of as
good a minstrel show as John W.
Vogel's Big City Minstrels are pre
senting, which comes to the Lyric
next Monday, Jan. 27. There is just
enough newness about It to please,
and just enough of tho old-time fla
vor to relieve it from any charge of
iconoclasm.
Remember that ' Bunty" will bo
at the Lyric on Wednesday night.
