Complaint is made that many
books in the Homestead Free Library
are soiled and injured by pntronp
who take thorn out. This public
institution is a great bonefit and
convenience to the town and should
be regarded with especial favor by
all who patronize it. The books are
kindly furnished without any cost
or .expense whatever . and thosi
taking them should properly con
sider the favor, and exercise sorupu
Ions care in keeping the books neat
and olean. Rules and restriction
are perhajjs obnoxious but may b
made absolutely necessary by lack
of care of those who return book in
a defaced condition. The practice
of carelessly handling books is n
great detriment to the appearance of
the library and is also a wrong
against those who do appreciate the
benefit and who try to exercise care
with them.
If privileges are curtailed it U
with regret and not with any desire
to limit the. use of the books bat
only because it becomes necessary
to protect the property and safe
guard the rights of others against
those who do not properly regard
their duty respecting the free enjoy
ment of this benefaction and misuse
their privileges.
The ladies of Honesdale are now
busy making some article which will
be sold to add to the funds of the
Village Improvement Society, The
Maple City is adorned by the handi
work of a number of philanthropic
ladies who undertake the task of
beautifying the public park and the
streets. Inasmuch as the citizens
litre have made liberal subscrip.
tions toward advertising this locality
we wonder why our ladies, always
alert in good deeds and benefactions
and who display such excellent taste
do not follow in the footsteps of
their Honesdale sisters and take in
band the adornment of our streets
and public square. A little done in
this direction would add greatly to
the appearance of the town and
would demonstrate in a practical
way our desire to entice summer
guests, and it would al3 be duly
appreciated by the citizens who
have an eve for neatness and beauty.
We hope the Indies will promptly
act in this matter. "
Since the Pennsylvania democrats
refused to instruct forjudge Parker
and the Tammany orowd was so
contentious over' the leadership of
Hon. D. B. Uill under whose direc
tion the New York" delegates were
instructed, there is fear in oertnin
quarters that the way at Bt. Louis
will not b'3 rose strewn and there is

THB CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR
I the Movement a Ppent Force P
Reasons Showing Why It Is Not
The moderator of the Presbyterian
Assembly, Dr. Robert F. Coylo, of
Denver, declared in n speech in
Philadelphia not long bro that ho
rognrded the Christian Endeavor
movement as a "spent force. It
had over-emphasized the spectacu
lar in religion, and, now that the
inevitable reaction has come, the
organization is found lacking in
vitality, and, the speaker implied,
it.s end is within the range of present
vision.
The Preshytorian Fhrner (Pitts
burg) comps to the defense of tin
Christian Endeavor movement in n:
editorial which is cordially imhwse !
by The Christian Endeavor Worl 1
(Boston) and which we reprint tv
follows :
"During tho fi'-st ten years ( t
Chrif.tinu Eiule.ivor it was a map
niHcent outburst of youthful enthu
siasm. It swept over onr cliurcu
and some other churches in grew'
waves, practically submerging oppn
sitlon, swallowing up hesitation,
and rising to floodtide. Banner:,
badges, and conventions were its
symbols and means. The life of
youth, long dormant or restrained
in the church, found itsoly suddenly
freed and had to express itself juhi
lantly, ns the disciples flung thcii
palm branches on the road and the
children cheered when Jesus made
his triumphal entry into Jerusalem.
The beginning of a great movoment
is nsually attended with such or
outburst of enthusiasm. Christiani
ty itself leaped into full life. at
Pentecost, when thousands were
intoxicated with the Spirit. The
Reformation filled a whole century
with splendid enthusiasm. The
Wesleyan movement in England
was a sudden fire of fervency. The
birth of a political party that has 11
great idea for its principle is an
outburst of enthusiasm and express
es itself in 'banners, badges, ami
conventions.' But after this initial
period of youthtul fervency and
fireworks a movement usually settles
down to quipt, steady work. The
mountain stream is more noisy and
picturesque and spectacular as it
comes dashing and foaming down
its rocky declivities, but whet, it
strikes the plain it quiets down to
the steady work of feeding the
meadows and turning mills and
bearing comuieroe. Such a stream
is not 'a spent force' because it no
longer leaps down the mountainside
rather, its true work begins at the
plain.,
"V7e think Christian Endeavor,
instead of being spent, has only
reached the plain. Its days of
youthful spectacular dash and dis
play are over. It has decked itself
with badges and marched under its
banners and had its great conven
tions flooding the largest cities : now
it is settling dowu to more quiet but
not less useful work. For the first
ten years these youthful hosts
mounted up with wings as eagles ;
for the next ten years they ran and
were not weary j now they have
reached .the point where they are to
walk aud not faint. Walking is less
conspicuous and exciting than fly
ing, but it lasts longer and in the
end will go farther. Christian
Endeavor is young people organized
in worship and work. No doubt
they were worshiping aud working
in tha church before the Endeavor
movement cam, as they still are in
many churches where the Endeavor
Society has not been accepted.
Christian Endeavor is not an inspir
ed movement enjoined upon ua by
authority. But it has proved itself
an effective means, of getting the
young people to work. It binds
tiidm dimu tU of worship, bud
it gives thbra deflmto means and
opportunities of service
"Having got through with tho
youthful period of enthusiasm, of
'banners badges, and cou vantions,'
CurislittU Endeavor must now settle
down to quiet, stuudy service. It
hears about the same relation to
worship and work as tho Habbath
school bears to the study of God's
Word, and it bus a permanent
placo iu the life and work of tho
church. At first the ohurch and
Christian Endeavor hardly knew
how to rtgard each other. The
church was somewhat suspicious of
Christian Endeavor as an intruder
and a usurper, and Christian En
deavor w&s somewhat impatient of
the church as imposing restrictive
control. But all this has passed,
and the church is row exercising
rightful rule over the Endeavor
j Society as a part of itself, aud the
j Endeavor Society is loyal to the
ehurcu. eieiieve ine inueavor
movement is today a quieter but a
more powerful f jrce than ever be
fore ; thht its principle is One of the
gie.itetit ideas that have stirred the
j church iu our ih.y ; and that it is a
! l.i.Miitg contribution to eP.h.ieut and

OBITUARY
JAMKS HARRISON WIU.tAM-o
J. II. Williamson died at the home
of his daughter in Brnnchvillu, N.
J., last Sunday night nflr a Ions
illness. He was a son of Set h and
Catharine, r-vsnhiongh, Williamson
and was born st Kcotchtown, N Y.,
July 17th, 1825. His ancestors came
from Devonshire, England. His
early life was passed here where he
was well known, mid In 1811 he
went to Unionvillo, N. Y., where he
learned ns tvado, that of a carpen
ter. He then went to Sussex county
and engaged in tne business of a
huibhrand contractor and erected
many edifices, churches and other
Imihlings, nmong them the Presby
terian and Methodist churches here,
several private dwellings and the
Blooming Grove Park club house.
Of a family of six children he was
the youngest and hist survivor. In
1617 ho was united in marrinpe with
Amanda Coss who died several years
ago. One dnaghtnr, Anna, wife of
W.H. l)alryrnple,snrvi ves. William
E. and 8. W. Smith of Port Alle
gheny and Cnrleton A Smith of
Atlanta, Ga,, are nephews, and
Bertha Williamson of Lakewood, N.
J., is a granddaughter. The funeral
services were held Wednesday and
interment at Brauehville. -
"Purifying Polities"
When in was reported . that the
recent election frauds in Denver were
committed mainly by women, the
opixdients of equal rights said this
proved that women ought not to vote.
When it turned out that the frauds In
question were committed mainly by
men, with only a very small sprinkling
of women, the opponents shifted their
ground and now say that final suffrage
is a failure ltc-cniise the women have
not prevented fill men fnti)i cheating
and completely "purifying polities."
Politics might lie purified complete
ly by adding to the electorate a body
of ungels who not only never cheated
themselves but were able by magic
Itower to keep everylxxly else from
cheating. That would le very con
venient, but unluckily it is imtoasible.
On tho other hand, polities may be
purifltnl to some extent by adding to
the electorate a large body of voters
among whom cheating is compara
tively rare. Hint is what has happen
ed in Colorado.
The female population of Colorado Is
241,3C8. During the first ten years
after equal suffrage was granted, only
one woman was convicted of illegal
voting, while a great number of men
indulged in it. In the recent Denver
case, ex-Gov. Adams of Colorado says
in the New York Sun that out of 5000
fraudulent votes, only alxtut 100 were
cast by women. And yet the ennnrd
has been spread broadcast that "the
women did it!"
The "Indirect influence" of women
is much vaunted as a purifying power
by the op)oneiits of equal rights; but It
has not completely purified politics in
the states where women do not vote.
The election frauds in New York,
Philudelphii, St. IiOuis, etc., have
been much bigger and more chronic
than in IX'nver. In Colorado, woman
suffrage has not completely purified
politics, but it has had a good in
fluency as far as it has gone, and no one
bears more emphatic testimony to this
than Hon. John L. Shafroth himself.
Kllis Menedilh of Denver, at the
recent National Suffrage Convention
illu-strated the situation by a story
She said "A chronic toper w as brought
to the hospital with a bad case of
delirium tremens. The doctor examin
ed him carefully. Tho man asked;
Can you cure me'." 'No,' answered
the doctor, 'but I can reduce the size
of the sniikes.' Equal suffrage has not
cured the corruption of olitiw, but it
has distinctly reduced the sie of the
snakes. Alii-e Stone Black well.
