THOUGHT FOR TO-DAY.
Ut Is usually not so much the great
ness of our trouble as the littleness
of our spirit which maKes us com
plain. Jeremy Taylor.
HONESDALE'S FREE LIBRARY.
Wo all believe In public libraries.
We frequently discuss the library we
are to get "bye and bye." We do not
find that it Is helping the boys and
girls who are growing up In our town
now. Will the next generation need
it more than this? Will the children
of the next generation be dearer to
us than the boys and girls that now
cheer our firesides? Will they use
a library better because their par
ents have not had such privileges?
We all want a library, for. our
selves, for our neighbors, for the
good name of our village. Why not
get it now and be getting the good
out of it?'
It is only a question of method.
The library when built should
benefit all tho people, and therefore
it should be built by all the people.
Give us all a chance to help, and then
the library will belong to all of us.
Honesdale and the immediate vi
cinity has been divided Into districts
and solcitors have been appointed to
make a house to house canvass for
tho .purpose of securing a free will
contribution for the benefit of the
school library. This is an exception
ally worthy cause and should be giv
en the hearty support of the com
munity at large. Bo liberal. We
should all work In the interest of
this institution. Co-operation is
what counts.
A public library Is tho flower of
the modern forms of co-operation,
which secures for the individual lux
uries which he could not afford oth
erwise. Instead of buying so many books
and magazines which wear out on the
shelves after one reading, let us
"pool our issues" and put the multi
tude of small sums in one fund, buy
the best at tho lowest prices, and
then use the volumes so brought for
the good of all. We need spend no
more money each year for literature,
but wo need to save the wastage due
to unused books, foolish purchases,
book agents, commissions, and need
less profits and we can have a pub
lic library without other cost.
A good public library In this town
will help our neighboring farmers as
well as our townspeople. They can
not support public libraries in their
small communities. Their small
school libraries give tho children a
taste for reading, but give them
nothing to giatify that taste when
they leave school. Let us join our
forces for mutual advantage and get
a better library and a wider commun
ity of interests. Again we say, be
liberal.
THE INCOME TAX NOW POSSIBLE
Tho adherence of Wyoming, unex
pectedly in advance of that of either
New Jersey or New Mexico, makes
the income tax amendment a part of
tho Federal Constitution. Congress
at last has tho constitutional power
to lay a tax upon incomes, from
whatever source derived, without ap
portionment among tho States.
The exercise of this power, Is with
Congress which submitted the resol
ution to tho States on tho general
theory that It was a power to be used
in an emergency, as a last resort, and
not in tho ordinary business of pro
viding ways and moans.
How far tho new Democratic dis
pensation will depart from this origi
nal attitude toward tho Income tax
Idea, how strong will be the effort
to make it the Instrument of odious
class discrimination and Inequality
for socialistic or near socialistic pur
eposes wholly apart from the question
of revenue, now remains to bo seen.

"PURE SHOES."
A "puro shoo" bill is before the
legislature at Harrlsburg, fathered
by Representative Charles J. Hom
mlnger of Somerset county. Tho
Somerset statesman declares that
the people ought to have exact
knowledge of tho kind of stuff their
shoes are made of. Ho proposes to
have a tag placed on every ehoe re
citing the Ingredients of which it is
composed. Jfi there are leather
the Citizen Publishing Company.
E. B. HAKDKNBEROII
W. W. WOOD
scraps, cement or other substances
besides .puro leather, the tag shall
say so.
It Is all right to guaranteo to the
people purity In all the goods they
purchase, but this thing of attaching
to every article of manufacture a
genealogy, an affidavit and a certifi
cate of character is going to add to
the complications and tho high cost
of living. Think of a shoe carrying
forward through all the intricacies
of manufacture a daily increasing
series of labels and tags certifying
to the character of tho materials and
to tho honesty of tho numberless
people who have worked thereon.
And think how tho whole process
would be simplified by an adult dose
of common honesty to begin with in
all of the people who made the shoe.
It Is to bo doubted whether the world
Is to be made good by investigation,
affidavit and exposure after all.
AGAINST FRAUDULENT ADVER
TISING. Every merchant in Wayno county
should write to Hon. H. C. Jackson,
a 'member of the House In the Gen
eral Assembly, also to Senator Har
vey Huffman of the Senate of this
district requesting them to support
the Alter bill against fraudulent ad
vertising, drafted by Hon. George E.
Alter, now speaker of tho House.
The bill will prohibit untruthful an
nouncements of bargains, prices,
values and cures.
It will enable people to believe
what they read because the fake will
not be allowed to publish lies.
It Is therefore to the Interest of
every honest merchant and every
consumer to have tho bill passed.
Write to Hon. H. Clark Jackson in
the Pennsylvania legislature, Har
rlsburg, and get your friends to
write also. Time Is short act now.
Tho following bill nas been draft
ed to the request of tno Pittsburgh
Publicity Association, an organiza
tion composed of 300 advertising
men. Other states, Now York, Mass
achusetts and Iowa havo such laws.
Why should not Pennsylvania get in
to lino also?
We herewith present a suggested
letter:
The following may do used as a
form in which to address Senators
and Representatives:
Hon. H, C. Jackson,
Harrlsburg, Pa.
Dear Sir:

DIRECT VOTE BILL PASSED
HOUSE
Rati lies Popular Election Amend
ment to Constitution by Over
Whelming Majority Big: Clinngo
In Sentiment.
Harrlsburg, Feb. 4. By a vote of
193 to 3 the lower house of tho
Pennsylvania general assembly rati
fied the popular election amendment
to tho United States constitution pro
viding that United States senators
shall be elected by direct vote of the
people of the several states.
Tho decision of tho House follow
ed a debate of two hours, In which
J. Baldwin, of Delaware, made a
number of speeches against the
amendment. E. E. Jones, of Susque
hanna, the author of the amendment,
in an address to the house said that
as a candidate on tho Republican
and Democratic tickets in his district
and as a member of the state grange
ho felt in duty bound to present the
resolution to the house.
In his talk Mr. Jones replied to
an argument of Mr. Baildwin to the
effect that a constitutional provision
good enough for 124 years ago was
good enough now, and said that un
der tho present system of electing
United States senators the evils of
bossism ihavo arisen. An additional
reason offered by Mr. Jones for the
passage of tho amendment is that the
election of United States senators by
direct vote would divorce tho sena
torial issue from the candidacy of
representatives.
Stand Solidly for Resolution.
All the Northeastern members
voted for the resolution. The six
Lackawanna members, two Bradford,
one Susquehanna, one Wyoming, one
Wayne and eight Luzerne members
standing solidly for the bill. Tho
104th vote was cast by John F. Man
nlon, Democrat, of the Fifth Lacka
wanna district. The house gave
eighty-nine votes more than a ma
jority. The overwhelming decision of the
house this year In favor of tho di
rect vote resolution is all the more
significant when It is known that in
the session of 1911, two years ago,
it was not possible to get tho reso
lution out of committee and bring it
to a voice.
Representative John F. Mannion's
bill appropriating $160,000 to the
state bureau of mines for the pur
pose of extinguishing the Carbondaile
mine fire was Introduced in tho house
of representatives. Tho bill pro
vides that before any of the appro
priation shall be expended by the
chief of the bureau of mines the
county of Lackawanna shall "obli
gate itself to this commonwealth in
such a sum, form and such security
as sha'll be approved by the attorney
general of the commonwealth, that
if the sum appropriated by this act
shall be Insufficient for the payment
of such expenditures said county will
pay such additional amounts as shall
bo required."
County Must Givo Bond.
The act would give the chief of the
bureau of mines power to condemn
land, to destroy, appropriate or uso
such material as necessary to carry
out the provisions of the act, and the
attorney general is authorized to sue
for and recover from the property
saved from loss or damage by reason
of the state's activity, all or as much
as may be recovered of the expendi
tures made under tho provisions of
tho act.
Tho local option bill endorsed by
the Anti-Saloon league and provid
ing for units of counties and munici
palities of over 10,000 population
was Introduced in tho house by Mr.
Rockwell, Tioga. An election is to
bo held on petition of a per cent, of
tho voters according to the bill.
Tho Democratic "corrupt practice"
act was presented by Mr. Matt, Bed
ford. It limits expenses of candi
dates $12,500; governor $10,000;
congressmen, $3,'500; senators, $1,
000 and as follows; United States
Senators, representatives $500 and
all other candidates not over 50 per
cent, of salary for first year. 'News
paper advertising and personal let
ters are permitted and all other ex
penses are stipulated. Candidates
not filing accounts can . not have
names printed on tho official ballot.
Speaker Alter announced that 'ho
had received the petition of Thomas
D. Shea, Wllkes-Barre, asking for tho
Impeachment of Judge Henry A.
Fuller, of the Luzerne county courts,
and referred it to the judiciary gen
oral committee. Allegations that
Judge Fuller had failed to decide
cases and committed various acts In
offlco which the petitioner deems Im
proper were made by Mr. Shea.

TWO COUNTIES TO BE
ADDED TO FOURTEENTH,
By Proposed Cliango in Congression
al Apportionment 'They Aro
Tioga and Sullivan Four
More Congressmen for
State.
The proposed changes In the con
gressional apportionment of tho state
will effect the Fourteenth district
among others. Four new congress
men are alloted to Pennsylvania un
der the present population figures.
One of these goes to Philadelphia
county, one to Allegheny, tho third
to a new district formed by parts of
Lackawanna and Luzerne, while the
fourth Is secured by a redlvision of
the northern and central groups of
counties into one more district. To
the present fourteenth district, com
posed of Wayne, Susquehanna, Wyo
ming and Bradford, is added Tioga
and Sullivan; to the balance of the
Sixteenth district, Columbia, Mon
tour and Northumberland is added
Union and Snyder; iPerry county is
added to Dauphin and Cumberland,
while Lebanon' and Lancaster are
united, and Franklin becomes part
of a district with Adams and York.
Under tho census figures, Lacka
wanna county Is entitled to an add!
tional state senator, and so is Alle
gheny county, but there is a strong
likelihood that the senatorial reap
portlonment will not bo considered,
unless, the leaders say, " There is a
public demand for It.
No change will tako place in tho
representation of Lackawanna and
Luzerne counties in the lower house.

The presumption that tho new
congressional district would bo made
up of the upper end or Luzerne and
tho southern end of Lackawanna,
Pittston city, Plttston township,
Avoca, Jenkins township, Lackawan

West Plttston, Wyoming, Exeter
township, Hugliestown, Duryea and
a few small Lackawanna places,
would make up tho new district,
