TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 1913.
THOUGHT FOK TO-DAY.
I believe that the mind can be
profaned by the habit of attending
to trlval things, so that all our
thoughts shall be tinged with triv
iality. II. D. Thoreau.
All hail to Representative Lewis
of Schuylkill county, who, It Is
claimed, will present a pure coal bill
In the legislature this session. One
of the provisions of the bill is that
coal sold at retail must not contain
more than five per cent. Impurities.
The Legislature of the State of
Washington, which went strongly for
Roosevelt at the last election, 'has
just rejected a bill providing for the
recall of Judges next year, If the
voters desire to do so. It Is becom
ing dally more evident from such
acts as this that there is a remark
able, discrepancy between the vote
cast for the Bull Moose candidate
and the influence which his follow
ers can exert in legislation, Our
own State Legislature gives proof
of this. Tho Judicial recall was one
of the Colonel's pot Ideas, but It is
making very slow progress, if any
at all, throughout tho country. A
number of recent events, such as the
Impeachment of Judge Archibald and
the conviction of Becker in New
York, show that the Courts can be
stirred by public sentiment to
prompt action, and that an unfaith
ful Judge can be brought to book
without great delay. The vote of
more than three-quarters of the
States for an income tax amend
ment to the Constitution is also vir
iually a recall of the decision of the
United States Supreme Court, which
had held, by a vote of five to four,
that such a law was unconstitution
al. These aro more satisfactory
methods of accomplishing results
than the Colonel's quick-action
schemes.
WOMEN OF PENNSYLVANIA
-MAY SOON BE AISLE TO VOTE.
Woman's suffrage gained a very
important point by tho passage on
Wednesday of a woman's suffrage
amendment by the legislature. There
is not a state In the union so im
portant to tho movement as Pennsyl
vania. The rights of man were pro
claimed from this state in 177G.
Historically and sentimentally Penn
sylvania should proclaim the rights
of women.
The very large vote by which tho
bill was passed in tho assembly Is
significant of the wide-spread agita
tion throughout this state for an
equalization of the suffrage. It has
been felt that the women are en
titled to suffrage as well as the
men and that It should be given
them. If they want to exercise it,
all right. If not, thoy will not be
committing any greater breach
against citizenship than tho thous
ands of men who after more than
a century of suffrage for men aro
still not educated to tho point of ap
preciating the right of suffrage.
From all indications Pennsylvania
women will soon be able to vote. Two
years more remain for agitation of
the subject. This period will bo val
uable for more thorough educatioh
and certain it will ho that tho wom
en will bo more qualified for exercis
ing suffrage than the great mass of
men were when granted suffrage.
THE CHAUTAUQUA MOVEMENT.
The Chautauqua Association of
Pennsylvania has sent a representa
tive to Honesdale to consider the ad
visability of establishing a Chautau
qua In this community next summer.
So far as our information goes, wo
do not know of any movement which
would bo of more substantial bene
fit to tho community and would
leave a more lasting impression be
hind it. Tho program offers tho very
best talent In oratory, music and en
tertainment, and the prime consider
ation with the management in form
ing it is Its beneficial effect upon tho
community which ls served. Any
one who will take tho trouble to
investigate can convince himsolf that
the Association ls both reputable
and reliable. It has tho support of
a large number of tho leading busi
ness men and financial leaders of
Philadelphia and vicinity. It should
the Citizen Publishing Company.

K. B. HAKDENBERQII
W. W. WOOD
bo stated, however, that these Chau
tauquas are not conducted for profit.
Tho Association is chartered as a
"iNo Profit" stock organization and it
seeks simply to provide .a high grade
program which shall be of real value
to the community with the 'hope of
covering the expenses only. This
should appeal to our citizens as most
of the organizations which seek to
operate In our town desire to make
is large profits as possible.
Dr. A. E. Turner, associate direc
tor of the Chautauqua Association,
spoke to a small number in the li
brary room of the high school Fri
day evening and his manner was
convincing. It certainly would be
a good thing for the town and Its
cost would not exceed seven cents for
each feature on the program. Little
more than the price of a ticket to
the moving pictures. Yet the citi
zens of Honesdale would get everlast,
ing benefit and bo privileged to hear
great orators. Some of the noted
men on the Chautauqua program are
Governor Hadley of .Missouri; Pres
ident Taft, William Jennings Bryan
and others. This is an affair for
which the business men as well as
the citizens of Honesdale should
strive to bring here for a week dur
ing tho summer. It would bring in
tho people from 'all parts of the
country and advertise Honesdale as
a good place to go at other times
as well. Dr. Turner will come here
again on Tuesday evenlnfl, Feb. 25,
when a larger meeting Is hoped for.
Come and help organize.

sponsible for three of them, com
pelling physicians to report occu
pational diseases to the Bureau of

tho now system even morfe desirable
than at present by adding to the sal
ary of $5000 all tho actual and
necessary expenses involved in tho
transaction of their business or tho
course of their duties.
For Industrial Relief.
Seven proposed laws providing for
workmen's compensation, employ
ers' liability, liability insurance, pre
vention of Industrial accdents, limit
ing the hours of employment for
women and minors, and 'proposing a
constitutional amendment permitting
the enactment of a compulsory com
pensation act, all originating with
the Governor's Commission on In
dustrial Accidents, were introduced
into the House by Representative
Daniel J. Shern, of Philadelphia.
The bills aro based on the princi
ple of optional compensation, as pro
vided In most of the States, the em
ployer and employe being permitted
to forego the stipulated compensa
tion in the act, provided they defi
nitely reach such an agreement, and
file it with the State, but all the old
defenses against employers' liability,
such as the fellow-servant rule, the
assumption of risk by the employe,
or the negligence of the injured him
self, short of drunkenness or reck
less disregard of danger, are remov
ed, practically forcing tho employers
to come in under the law.
Installment .compensation, paid
weekly, and based on a percentage
of the wages paid to the injured em
ploye, is also adopted, in the place
of lump payments. The act gives a
schedule of compensations beginning
with 25 per cent, of the weekly wa
ges to the employe who leaves only
a widow or widower or one depend
ent, and ranging to GO per cent., ac
cording to the number of depend
ents remaining. Compensation for
a child ends at 1G years of age. Tho
compensation is reckoned on salaries
ranging from a maximum of $20 a
week down to $10.
Bill Will Abolish Negligence Pica
If the bill Introduced by Repre
sentative Shern of Philadelphia, be
come a law a defense setting up neg
ligence of the victim as cause of an
accident will rarely avail in damage
suits. The hill was prepared by tho
Industrial Accident Commission.
Only where tho employe himself
is intoxicated or recklessly indiffer
ent will a defense of negligence bo
allowed. The employer, by the
Shern bill, is made liable for the
negligence of all employes while
they are employed.
An elective system of compensa
tion to be paid to the employe in
the event of death or disability is
provided. This contract made be
tween employer and employe, if con
taining a clause that the employe is
not bound by the act, must be filed
with the Bureau of Industrial Sta
tistics. If such a contract is not
filed the act is held in force.

TOO CROWDED AT SING SING.
Two Men In Cells Six Feet by Three,
Commissioner Reports.
Albany, N. Y Feb. 10. Crowding
two men in a cell 3 by (1 feet, necessi
tated by the Increasing population of
Sing Sing prison, is a condition which
Henry Solomon of the state prison
commission says should not be permit
ted to exist. Ho recommends tho erec
tion of a now prison to take tho place
of the present overcrowded institution.
The prison population on the day Mr.
Solomon Inspected the institution was
1,102. "There aro 1,200 cells, each
measuring about a by 11 feet, which is
not nearly large enough for ono occu
pant," says the commissioner in n re
port, "so one can easily imagine how
terribly unhealthy they must be when
there has to bo two lu n ceil, which
must happen so long ns tho population
is greater than the normal accommoda
tions." Army Worm's Deadly March.

TUBERCULOSIS CURE.
It ls reported that President
Charles Finley, of the Aetna Nation
al bank, of New York, is very much
disappointed that Dr. F. F. Frled
mann, the Berlin scientist, has not
started for this country to lay claim
to Mr. Finloy's offer of $1,000,000
for a positive cure of tuberculosis.
Mr. Finley has made the generous
offer in order to demonstrate wheth
er tho claims that Dr. Frledmann
has a cure for tuberculosis are true.
As ho states It, ono of two things
is true; either Friedmann's cure is
a cure or It ls a failure. Mr. Finley
ls willing to spare no expense to get
the German doctor hero and have
the matter settled beyond a doubt.
This effort to determlno whether
thoro is a remedy that will check
tho great whito plague other than
tho slow open air methods that are
bringing many back to health, is
certainly ono of the most commend
able undertakings of tho modern
philanthropist. A euro that would
work against tuberculosis as tho
vaccine and serums have operated
against smallpox and diphtherln,
would be a boon of Immeasurable
good.
