They have weighed the question carefully andilie deei ion to vow for a trr niter Harris jT Ss a lteical re suit.

Owners oi houses have asked themselves The "a wcitcn is tetter, to pay tor he reconstruction of water pies and other plumbinc difficulties, the result of culm sediment, or the slipht tticrease1 ol tax nicli win proiue pure water and remove this expense and their answer has been in favor of improvements. Housekeepers have asked themselves whether it is better to pay additional rent, if necessary, or endure the constant nuisance of elop'ped water pipets nnd foul water in kitchen and bath room and tthey have decided in favor of clean water. Citizens everywhere throughout the city lia.ve asked whether it is better I to continue the present unsatisfac i lory piece meal sewer system at (in expense of more than $25,000 a year or reconstruct the system on modern lines a't an annual saving1 of $10,000, and they have sensibly decided in favor of pood serwerag'e and health. Landlord and tenant iave investipat ed and they now realize that it. is up I to them to remedy the evils of which the people complain and they will do i so at the polls on election cay.

The ice on the river may look like a nice place to skate, but the young people who dislike funerals in the family had better keep off for a day or so. The ''Erie Morning DLspaitch" has issued a creditable "Fiftieth Anniversary Number, Prosperity Edmon," which places that city as well a.s its ileading newspaper in a most favorable lipht. In the enumeration of the attractions of the city, the churches and schools are first mentioned and Then this fact, "Beautiful parks and summer resort." The city boasts $17.273. S30 capital invested, with the ra hie of the product, a't $20,637,247, and the number of men employed 10, :79. More attention seems to have been paid in this edition to exploit ittp the city as a pood place for business and residence than to any exploitation of what the Dispatch has done.

The "Dispatch" speaks for itself. It is a good newspaper. The Venezuelan revolutionary steamer, that was reported to have been sunk several days ago, and is now said to be cruising around looking for trouble, must be something of a Jonah. And the reading public cares as little about its mission as did Ninevah when Jonah came to them after his sojourn in the whales ucti When Mr Bryan said that the nation's remarkable prosperity has had no effect upon the agriculturalists of the country he epain showed that his principal ability lies in being able to talk without a knowledge of the facts. The statement! issued by the Treasury Bureau of Statistics shows that of the spring and winter wiheat there were Teceived at the five leading markets last year an excess of 131.662,04'i bushels over 1900.

Cotton growers and stock raisers fared equally as well and the fact that counts more than anything els is that the prices in each case were above those of 1900. We have not heard of any farmers hereabouts complaining of not receiving their share of prosperity. The board of health of Chambers burg has filed a criticism, in their annual report, of the newspapers and the school board of that town for object in to a eneral vaccination ordinance. In the board's objection the other towns in the State will heartily aree. For the food of all the towns in the State it is necessary that eerr man, woman and child be vaccinated.

No community during the past year has been entirely exempt from the ravages of small pox. VVjrh the prowing intercourse now eristiisr between it is em ybatically teeary that every precaution be taken. Vaccination is cheaper than sanitary hospitals.

Tha Man With Small Capital. Chicago Tribune. In an article in the Outlook, it is asserted that, "'the man with small capital has been crushed in bis effort's to compete with gigantic, masses of corporate wealth." This a sert ion, which is by no means new, is nor devoid of truth. It.is diltvult for a man with small capital to compete with rival, whether that rival le an individual or a corporation, that commands unbounded wealth. A person of limited means who undertiook to manufacture steel rails or billets in competition with the United State Steel Corporation might get along nfcer tw lion in seasons of prospeir ity, but he would be unable to live throngh hard times.

The man who wishes to be his own 'master to le employer instead of employe neea not. despair, even thouglli he have but. little capital. He can have his wish if he will keep out the comparatively small number of industries which demand great capital as a conditioner of cheap production, and confine himself to some one of the myriads of minor industries which do not excite' the cupidity the. great manufacturer or attract the attention of the promoter.
