The business success of a town does not tl«vend entirely upon the amount of money this or that particular man may be worth, nor the amount of money on deposit in the several banks of a town, so much as a Judicious and systematic employment of a part of it for th»- betterment and improvement of the town.

It is my opinion, after having obtained the expression of a considerable number of your influential citizens, that by putting the matter of having a baseball team or not having one to a vote of the pe-ople, that tight out of every ten people in the town and surrounding community would vote far baseball.

FOR HO OOADS Fifteen hundred pages of testimony have been taken, and much of the evidence is circumstantial, depending upon inference for Interpretation.WASHINGTON, D. C.. March 10.— The Ballinger-Pindliot "prosecution" was practically concluded with the testimony of former Secretary of the interior Garfield, who was on the stand today. By United Press. STIU LOOKING FOR TMIE One of the two thick volumes of the brief is devoted to an analysis of testimony taken in the Circuit Court of the United States for he Eastern district of MIssouurl, which declared that "Standard Oil" be dissolved. • It represents year* of governmental investigation of the oil business. WASHINGTON, MarchlO—"Either the Sherman act should be repealed or it should be enforced in a manner to make the people respect It." With this declaration of Its guiding principle, the Department of Justice today filed with the Supreme Court of the United States a. thousand page brief in support of Its petition that "Standard OH" be dissolved as In violation of the Sherman anti-trust law. The brief will be the government's oral argument at the hearing of the case by the Supreme Court next Monday. It bears names of Attorney General Wickersham and of Frank B. Kellogg,,, Charles 13. Morrison and Cordenio A. Severance us special ussistancts.Judge Reed's decision will probably settle the matter since neither side will probably appeal the case if it goes against them. The decision rendered In this case means a great deal to the borough financially. If lost the borough stands to pay out a tidy sum in costs, witness fees, etc. There is at present due the borough a sum aggregating over $2,000 for street curbing, etc., and should the Carmalt case go against the borough these will be hard to collect. On the contrary should the borough win the money will be forthcoming immediately. Judge Reed Is now in Warren Co. and will probably remain there for several days so that It is not likely that a decision In the Carmalt case will be rendered before next week. With the exceptions of the immediate decisions made following the arguing of cases on the argument list no decisions have as yet been tiled by Judge Reed on the cases argued before him at the recent term of court. IIIEKEN TEARS OF MICE "If necessary I shall go to Washington with Principal French and my dughter and her husband to see Secretary Knox ubout this mutter," she said. The attitude assumed by the Kjiox family In refusing to receive the bride was the subject of sevoTe strictures by Mrs. Daniel Oilman, the young woman's mother. "Yes, dad told me yesterday In Washington that he would give no more money, but would lot me shift for myself," said the >outhful husband tonight. "However, I have enouugh income of my own to keep me until 1 get a Job. My grandfather on my mother's side left me enough to give me an Income of about $100 a month, and this I am to receive from my mother, who Is trustee of the money until I lam of age." PROVIDENCE, Jt. I., March 10— Standing beside the pretty bride that his father. Secretary of State Knox, has refused to receive. Philander C. Knox, Jr. tonight admitted that as a result of his elopment with Miss May Holer, his family had cut him oft, leaving him dependent upon a legacy and what he can earn himself. [HMtlT <1CLOE C. P. MUNCH MIMED This alone was enough to cause the strikers' committee of ten to regard thljft as their most successful day. The success of the strike leaders In Inducing more than 1,000 employed of the Baldwin locomotive worlu» to qiit yesterday afternoon, following the early morning desertion of as many more, was the most striking development of the day. A labor campaign which yesterday gave every sign of waning received its strongest Impetus yesterday from the action of the State Federation of Labor convention in New Castle in declaring that a State-wide and even nation-wide tie-up of Industry would not be too great a price to pay if neo«'.K.sury to Insure success to the local cause.

The roar of a dynamite explosion last night marked the climax of a most eventful day In the street car strike situation. A stick of the explosive with a percussion cap attached to it was placed Just after nlcbtfull on the tracks of the Oermantown Avenue car line at Logan Street, a quiet spot in the Northwest euburb. The strikers declare that the bakers employed by the Itolbs Baking Company, the largest In the city, have gone out. The leaders of the strikers declare that a thousand more men have quit at the Baldwin locomotive plant. The management, however denies this and states that a number of those who quit yesterday have returned to their places. The officials of the company do not believe that their men will quit. If the men do strike It would delay the completion of several government The Cramps shipyards have been picketed by hundreds of strikers who are attempting to get the eighteen thousand men employed there to stop work. warships.

By United Press. The patent for this Invention Is owned by Geo. B. McCiellan and Clarence Markle and is manufactured by the Punxsutawney Foundry and Machine, In which are employed the following Clearfield people: Geo. B. McClellan. superintendent of both shops. Clarence A. Markle. foreman, Henry King, Hay Gearhart, Edward Cooper, George Owens, Frank Plympton, James Ogden, Hoy Reed. Thus It will be seen that Clearfield has something to do with the industrial life of Punxsutawney and the mechanical genius of her sons being duly rewarded. The press box Is In use by buchflrms us the Harbison-Walker Hefraotorles Co., Blckford Brick Co., Queen's Run Fire Brick Co., Garfield Fire Brick Co., Pennsylvania Fire Brick Co., Federal Refractories Co., I«ock Haven Fire Brick Co., Chester Fire Brick Co., and many others. "It is generally known that in the industrial movements of Punxsutawney Clearfield forms an honorable part. This has been brought about by the employment of (leo. B. McClellan, who begati with the Punxsutawney Foundry and Machine Co. in 1903, when he directed the building of the shops and was made general superintendent of the same. Mr. McClellan, prior to that, had received a good training; in the business, having, worked with Bigler, Heed & < "o. for seven years and following this worked for John E. DuBois as fore- V»an of the locomotive department for a period of four years. So it will be well seen that he was well equipped for hlA Punxsutawney job when it was assigned to him in 1903. While he has been delving in the management of the shops he has employed his mind in the Invention of a briek press box, in which patent Clarence Markle associated his genius and shares in the eolumentfr. Accompanying a cut of George B. McClellan, the well known general superintendent of the Punxsutawney Foundry and Machine Co., the Clearfield Raftsman's Journal prints the following; 61 SECRET BALLOT PROGRAM FOR EOIICATIOKAL DAY I THE PUBLIC SC10BL WASHINGTON.

During the afternoon session Philip Penna, commissioner of the Indiana operators, presented what is considered the view of the operators' side of the question. In his speech he stated that the increasing of the miners' wages would not mean sL reduction in the cost of living, about which they had been talking so much, but that on the contrary, it would mean an increase in the cost of coal to the consumer who, in turn, would demand an increased price for his product and the afternoon session continuing uni til 5 o'clock p. m.

These are some of the important demands presented at the joint conference of the United Mine Workers of America and the operators yesterday morning.

Within a few days the firemen of the Central company will give a demonstration of the practical use of a net in saving lives. A further step toward improving fire protection in Punxsutawney was made yesterday, when arrangements were made whereby fire alarms may be turned in over the ©ell Telephone. The installation of many new Bell phones here this year makes this practical.Alarms can now be turned in over both the Summerville and Bell telephones.

At that time my mind was fully made up to make the building of good roads the aim of my administration in the event of election. 1 believed then, as I do now, that our people want good roads and would welcome any reasonable and practical plan having this result in view. Unfortunately, our constitutional limitations as to Indebtedness stand in the way of a bond 'Issue. However, this must be overcome by an amendment, and 1 thought then, and still think, our people would adopt such an amendment, if the question were properly presented to them. We should have a bond issue of $50,000,- 000 at least for the express and only purpose of building roads in the first instance. if more is needed when this is exhausted, let it be provided in the same way. • • • Let future generations help to pay the expenses, as the bonds mature from time to time, but let the present generation enjoy some of the benefits and conveniences.
