M. SEIDEL 344 MILL STREET A SLANDEROUS STATEMENT The Scranton "Truth" Says That Not a Mill I or a Furnace Exists in Danville. Among the newspapers printed in Scranton is one called the The "Truth" is published by the Scranton Truth Publishing company, of which Hon. Louis A. Watres, a candidate for the governorship of Pennsylvania, is president.

And the motto of this paper, as shown on the top of its editorial page, is A Square Deal for Whether or not the name 'Truth' has been applied to this sheet as an ironical contrast to its real character there is no way of knowing, except by the matter that finds its way into the of one thing there is a "Truth" is an adept in the energetic use of the "big and also that its proprietor and editor are not very careful where they strike. Recently the following bit of malicious defamation appeared in the "Truth." "It is worthy of note that Danville, the town where the Zehnders first learned the steel and iron business, is no longer a factor in the industry. a single mill or furnace exists where once there were half a dozen or prosperous enterprises. The population of Danville has decreased several sands from what it was at the time the town's greatest prosperity. In early eighties Danville was an portant centre of the iron and manufacturing industry.

The flames from its furnaces lighted up the by night and the black smoke darkened the atmosphere by day. Of all river towns in that section of the State which once were the scene of prosperous iron and steel industries, Berwick is the only one that has benefited the great movement of. consolidation which has since been effected in branch of the manufacturing business. The immense plant of the American Car and Foundry company, which established on the foundation of old Jackson Woodin car shops, made Berwick one of the most prosperous towns in the State. It was from this manufacturing establishment that Charles M.

Zehnder came to Scrantn to take charge of the Dickson Manufacturing company." It is, however, interesting to note that there is another newspaper Scranton called the 'Times, that called the its right namethe -in the following editoricomment: A Scranton newspaper, in an article yesterday, in commenting upon Danville, said the steel and iron business no longer a factor in the town "Not a single mill or furnace exists where once there were half a dozen more prosperous enterprises. The population of Danville has decreased several thousands from what it was time of the town's greatest prosperity." The fact is, the Reading company has a rolling mill in operation employing one thousand men, and another of the largest and oldest rolling mills has been in operation continuousand the population is constantly on increase."

A team of horses in a lively dash that ended in the demolishing of an awning pole in front of Jacobs' upper store caused considerable excitement on Mill street yesterday afternoon about 5 o'clock. The horses, which belong to G. W. Hoke, had been in use, during the afternoon, at a funeral, and were being driven, without a vehicle, across the tow path from Ferry to Mill by fred Hullihen, when the beginning of the trouble occurred. The animals were evidently in a hurry to get back to the stable.

When they got to Mill street the driver lost control of the animals and they dashed off up the street at a wild pace. The Adams express wagon was stand ing, backed to the curb, in front of the express office, and the horses swerving to keep away from this, one of the team collided with the wooden post that supports the awning in front of Jacobs' store. The post was broken off, the horse thrown off his feet and the team captured. MANY FARMERS OF THIS STATE Are Directly Interested in the Passage of Three Measures Now Before Congress CHAMBERSBURG, April 27. -Believing the passage of three measures the 55,000 farmers of Pennsylvania to be in doubt, and for the purpose of urging the members of the 600 granges throughout the state to petition their congressmen to support such measures, Grange Master W.

F. Hill has sent notices to each granger to take action on the railroad rate bill, the Heyburn pure food bill and the free alcohol bill. Master Hill says: Each grange will be asked to petition the congressmen to help pass the bills. The state grange legislative committee, composed of Master Hill, Assemblyman W. T.

Creasy and E. B. Dorsett, have been in correspondence and have decided to warn each grange that the bills are in danger. INDORSES ROOSEVELT'S STAND. The notices set forth that the state grange is in accord with President Roosevelt's position on the rate measure.

The congressmen will be told that agriculture furnishes a larger proportion of freight for transportation over the railroads than does any other industry, and that the discrimination practiced by railroad corporations results to the disadvantage of the farmer, both as a producer and consumer of the transported goods. Concerning the Heyburn bill, the proclamation of the committee sets forth: "For years the nefarious trickster and adulterator of food products has plied his nefarious traffic, and there has been no adequate legislation to stay his avarice or to protect the people. Such legislation is urgently demanded at this time." Concerning the free alcohol bill, the committee says there is urgent necessity for the enactment of such legislation as will enable the farmers to use untaxed denaturized alcohol as motor i fuel in farm engines and for lighting and cooking purposes.

F. Good, and fatally injuring Fireman C. H. Lefever, and Brakeman J. J.

To the lumbermen of Maine are due the discovery and production of the now famouse goose bean.

The real name of the man who planted the first crop this vegetable is not known, of but there are two rivals for the honor, and each has a most plausible version of his discovery of the bean. John Goddard, afterward colonel in civil war, told this story of how bean the was first found and grown by him: He had charge of a gang of lumbermen during the spring of 1846. The soft, slumpy snow made the roads impassable for a "tote team." and the men had been without fresh meat for more than al week. Colonel Goddard gave the cook orders to take his gun and go out to see if he could get a shot at the wild geese which were flying north 1 in great flocks. The cook wis lucky enough to being back several birds for supper.

When he was dressing them be noticed from the lack of food in their crops that they had been on short rations during their journey north ward. In the crop of one young gander were three beans, which Goddard saved and planted in his garden that summer. From these three beans he barvested about two quarts of beans, and from that first crop came the sup ply which has since gladdened the hearts of lumbermen throughout the country.
