JUDGE SEARLE'S ADDRESS AT
GURNEY OPENING
Ladles and Gentlemen:
It Is related oi a London divine
that he was so frequently called up
on to make speeches that he conceiv
ed tho plan of procuring a substitute,
and he found for that purpose a man
who resembled him in size, features
and voice, and when he was unable
to be present at any function he sent
his substitute with the direction that
in case he were called upon to make
an address, he should simply say, "So
much has been said and well said,
that I have nothing further to add
on this occasion." The plan worked
successfully until the substitute was
called upon to make the first speech
of the evening and then, when he
delivered his customary short ad
dress, the fraud was discovered.
It might, however, very appropri
ately now be said, "So much has been
said and well said that there is noth
ing to add thereto upon this occas
ion." The Chief Burgess of our town,
with his usual neat words, has made
the public welcome. Ho has discours
ed upon the advantages of Honesdale
as a manufacturing place and stated
her present nd future prospects.
Judge Carey has given a very com
prehensive, full and complete ac
count of the inception, plan and his
tory of this plant, and certainly
nothing could bo added in the lino of
his remarks.
My friend, Dr. Greene, has clothed
this very building and shafting and
machinery with eloquence and poe
try, and -when he has touched upon a
subject, further words are mere sur
plusage. It seems there Is little for me to
say except a benediction and so,
therefore, I will very briefly refer to
the past, present and future of
(Honesdale as an industrial town.
Honesdale was started In 1825
when contracts were let to dig the
D. & H. Canal, and this canal fur
nished employment, in Its erection
and construction, to hundreds of men
who later found employment UDon
the canal or the gravity railroad or
cleared up land and made farms for
themselves in Wayne county. The
canal was finished in 1828 and the
gravity road in 1829, the coal being
taken over tho D. & H. Gravity and
tho Pennsylvania Gravity in the win
ter ana loaded in tne summer, which
made this borough for many vears a
busy place, and it was a distributing
center ior an tms part or tho coun
try for merchandise of every kind.
Tho coal waB taken to Roundout
by, the canal and nany merchants
brought back and carted over the
mentals., tcuCArbondalo and.Scraa-
iuu imen tsiocum tioiiowj sugar,
flour, rum, molasses and all kinds of
goods and wares, long before the
Lackawanna Railroad waB dreamed
of and Honesdale was quite a con
siderable town while tho frogs in
the ponds where the Scranton Court
.House now stands made the night
.lively with their music.
Honesdale was tho homo of those
connected with and employed by tho
Canal Company and the merchants
who sold goods in this entire vicinity.
It was Incorporated as a borough In
1831 and It was not a manufactur
ing but a residential place.
We all remember the gloom.whlch
settled over us when the last canal
boat left hero on November 5, 1898,
and tho canal was forever closed af
ter a most honorable and useful ca
reer. Property depreciated in value
to such an extent that houses and lots
in Texas township were sold for $400
and $500 which cost $1500 and
$1800.
It was then, however, that the citi
zens of Honesdale said "we cannot
die," and as an indirect result of the
establishment over fifty years ago, of
that plant at White Mills which has
done so much for Wayne county in
an industrial way, other glass con
cerns were started in Honesdale and
other factories were erected.
Wo recall the old play houses! the
rink, never thoroughly warmed un
til burned by fire. How we pitied the
actors in their fruitless efforts to
keep warm. Liberty Hall, difficult
of access and dangerous of egress;
and the old armory, where the voices
of the speakers were lost amongst
tho vacant rafters. Yet in spite of
all these discomfitures, many a
pleasant and profitable evening was
spent in each of these houses, and
when the old armory became a glass
cutting establishment, public spirited
men said that we needed a house in
which to entertain, instruct and
amuse the people of the town, and
the result is that we have one of the
finest opera houses of its size in the
whole state of Pennsylvania.
A new high school building was
erected, an. armory procured, and in a
period of eleven years, from 1898 to
1909, so many glass factories were
started that Honesdale and Wayne
county became one of the most pros
perous places in the state of Penn
sylvania, and at that time was mak
ing and cutting more and better glass
than any county in the world. Many
buyers came here and the reputation
of Honesdale glass extended over the
whole country.
The unfortunate occasion and
troubles which caused the removal of
one of our glass factories to De
posit, one to Towanda, one to
Stroudsburg, one to Barryvllle and
another to Hallstead are still fresh in
our minds. Again property depre
ciated in value, the glass cutters be
came scattered over the country, and '
those who had endeavored to start
the factories and those who had tak
en an Interest in our industrial wel
fare felt much discouraged.
Industrial conditions remained at
a standstill and little effort was
made by the people of Honesdale to
get other factories here until it was
announced that the Gurney Elec
tric Elevator Company, which had
become well established and had a
splendid career and excellent reputa
tion, must have new accommoda
tions and if they could not get them
here would go elsewhere.
It was then that the Board of
Trade, the citizens of Honesdale, two
names of whom especially should be
and have been mentioned, Mr. L.
Blumenthal and Mr. Robert Murray,
and the banks of our town all said
that the elevator works must not
leave, and the result of the work of
the Board of Trade, of the banks and
of our public spirited citizens is
shown" in this building, of which you
have heard so much and which you
now see, and which will give employ
ment to several hundred good men.
The' glass factories are again being
filled and some of the wanderers are
returning home, property Is again in
creasing in value and at present
Honesdale and all of Wayne county
is in a most flourishing and prosper
ous condition.
Our industries are not so large as
to create monopolies; none have be
come so rich that they are in danger
of being Indicted for " predatory
wealth," and none are even accused
of having become too wealthy nor of
having acquired ill gotten gains.
Enough has been said of the past
and present industrial condition of
Honesdale, but what of the future?
At tho present time much uncer
tainty in manufacturing and other
kinds of business is experienced by
reason of tho possible effect of tho
Wilson tariff. Wilson, however, is
now our president, and his policies
should be given a fair trial and an
I tt$ mm Made in Syracuse '
honest effort made to succeed with
them. Thero must bo competition
with brains. Certain industries in
this country probably will be closed
but if, however, hiB policies and his
tariff should not prove for the great
est good of all, then the people will
again change It as they have changed
it in tho past. So we should fear no
Jermanent nor lasting injuries from
any tariff legislation.
Wo still need other things In
Honesdale. Our Btroeta should bo
paved and suitable drinking foun
tains located thereon. Occasionally
we see some unfortunate person be
ing taken to Scranton to leave a part
of his anatomy in some hospital. We
need a hospital; not so large, but one
large enough for Honesdale and
Wayno county.
We need an active and energetic
Young Men's Christian Association
for the improvement and uplifting of
every denomination. A very good li
brary Is being collected in the High
school building and the Old Ladies'
Home will come with these other Im
provements. I believe the Industrial future of
Honesdale Is bright. The location
has been spoken of; only one thing
is needed to make it an almost ideal
location for factories and that Is the
extension of the main line of the Erie
through the town. This would short
en tho distance between Lackawaxen
and Lanesboro about twenty-four
miles and the grade would be much
improved, and had Harriman lived,
this change would doubtless have
been made.
I believe the same energy and the
same determination to succeed which
has been used in Honesdale already,
if used in the proper direction would
result in putting Honesdale upon the
main line of the Erie railroad. Our
location would then be almost ideal.
With the climate, good water, and air
cooled by tho mountain tops, the
place unsurpassed for health, with a
farming community surrounding us
which could easily support 50,000
people, the future of Honesdale
would then be secure.
This building represents the union
of capital and labor. Look about you
nnd examine these works and every
thing you seo here Is a union of capi
tal and labor. There is nothing use
ful which does not represent these
factors which control the world.
Capital and labor enter Into every
thing which we use, occupy and en
joy. An injury to one is an injury
to the other, and a blow at either is
a blow at both.
We are proud of our factories and
of our hundreds of men who work
therein. Man represents also in him
self capital, and a man who can earn
one thousand dollars a year has in
himself assets worth at least twenty
thousand dollars so long as he is oc
cupied, and every man should guard
well and not impair the capital with
in himself. .
There is no place in Honesdale for
tho lazy person. Idleness, at what
ever end of the social scale, is a vice,
and he who, by education or habit,
becomes so refined that he is unable
to engage in the work of every-day
life, Is not a good citizen.
Tho erection of this building and
the other matters of which I have
spoken, recalls the duty of all to be
good citizens. Not only should
every good citizen obey the law but
he should see that others obey and
respect it, and he is a good citizen
who lives a decent, honest, honorable
life, endeavoring to be true to him
self and to the community in which
he lives, and trying to make the
community better for his living, and
none Is so high that he Is excused
from tho duties of good citizenship,
and none so humble that thero is
nothing for him to do.
And may all our industries, and
capital and labor, each have due and
proper respect for tho rights of the
other, and work together In peace
and harmony.
And may you and I all play the
part of good citizens and so act our
part that Honesdale may continue
to grow and may be a "still better
and happier place in which to live,
and may Industrial strife and
troubles never be our unhappy lot,
and may thero be no drones, pessi
mists, cynics, carping critics, breed
ers of discontent and unhappiness In
our midst, but may we all put our
shoulder to the wheel, and with hon
est effort and hard endeavor make
this town one of tho most prosper
ous, most happy and contented
places In which to live in this grand
old Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
