CARNEGIE S CONSCIENCE It is a mistake to think that a great captain of industry and finance is uot subjected to the annoy ing recoil of his conscience if at any time he may find he has stretched that elastic constituent of all human make-ups to a point beyond certain popu larly prescribed limits. We often have been told that the Rockefellers, the Yanderbilts and the Carnegies have no such thing as a conscience. We often have gained the impression that these great masters of finance and industry are immune to the influence of the whis perings of the still small voice if by any accident they deviate slightly from the straight and narrow path. We have often, perhaps, conjured up mental pictures of men of this type as absolutely heartless fellows, entirely selfish.—at least until their years are well advanced and they begin to think of other things than business,—and as men who never pause to consider, while amassing millions, that perhaps there is a limit which should be recognized in the amount of wealth that one individual may accumu late without trespassing on the rishts of the people as a whole. But it suddenly has been impressed on us how unjust we have been in harboring at least some of these ideas. We at last are forced to the realiza tion of how easy it is to misjudge men in such lofty stations of wealth and power as the Rockefellers, thf \ anderbilts and the Carnegies. Our altered opinion of thes< men s consciences comes with read ing quotations from a letter of Mr. Carnegie which were read at the hearing in Philadelphia yesterday iu the Government suit designed to dissolve the I nited States Steel Corporation. These quotations show that Mr. Carnegie wrote from Skibo Castle, Scotlaud. on August 12. ISM, that if prevailing steel prices were maintained in the following year it would be possible to* rr have at !fast s4O.o<H>,(' 0 profit.—but it may be $50,000,000." "To want more than that." he added, "seems wicked." This note, besides removine all doubt that Mr. < arnegie has a conscience, reveals another interest ing trait of his character.—the modesty of the man. ADVANTAGES OF BUYING AT HOME U is not by any means a new and original pro cedure to enumerate reasons why the business o* a city should go to the merchants of that city. Ye> 1 since persons need not so much to be instructed ' as to be reminded, occasional recurrence of the ! subject should be beneficial. Everv good citizen \ of Harrisburg knows that hi> patronage is due to j local dealers handling the commodities which he j buys, since upon the success of these merchants 1 depends largely, very largely, the prosperity of j ■.He eit\ which he calls home. the. city from which i ' he geu his substance, ami he is not fair to his fellow citizens unless he practices that which his reason tells him is the proper spirit of co-opera tion. •lust as the purchasing of products in America instead of abroad benefits business conditions iu America, so the patronizing of local merchants iu Harrisburg. rather than of mail-order dealers in otKer cities, favorably affects the prosperity of Harrisburg. The present conditions in Europe are doing a great deal for American commercial in dependence. and this exterior influence is keeping many American dollars in United States. However. . the war does not make it any more difficult to trade by nrnil between Harrisburg and oth«»r cities of the country. The parcel post has been a boon to i HARRISBHRO STARTyPEPEXPKVr. WEDNESDAY EVENING. OCTOBER 21. 1914 i the mail-order business and encourages the pur | chase of merchandise at uiail-order centers. These . advantages afforded by the pareel post, however, I are more than offset by benefits of home dealing, as presented time Ad again. Merchandise bought in Harrisburg stores ean be seen before it is paid for, and if it proves to be unsatisfactory after purchase there is little diffi culty in remedying the trouble. Delays in making purchases and in getting satisfaction in case of error are annoying and often cause great incon venience. Such delays are many times necessary in mail-order dealings, because personal contact between patron ami salesman is replaced by cor respondence which is often misunderstood at both I ends. Harrisburg dealers aim to give value received. They handle grades of merchandise to suit all pock et books and they must please their "patrons 111 their dealings because they are transacting business with these customers face to face. Increased business for the local merchants encourages them to keep larger and more assorted stocks and gives the pub lie advantages of wider selection in buying goods. The merchants of Harrisburg pay a large part of the city taxes ami in other -ways contribute largely to the city's welfare. They support institu tions of the city and ghe it the life which "only active business can gi\e to a municipality. They deserve the patronage, not iu part but in whole, of the citizens of Harrisburg. Dollars which go out of Harrisburg seldom return. When desired mer chandise can be purchased from retailers in this city, the local merchants should receive the benefit of the business. Dealings will be more satisfactory, money earned iu Harrisburg will stay iu Harrisburg and the city will prosper.

All are looking forward to ;» strenuous session in till 5. but are t 1 of opinion that V will not be prolonged until the latter part of June, as was that of 1913, when during the closing hours the weather was so warm that . staid and dignified Senators sat around . in their shirt sleeves and didn't care a _ rap tor appearances.

General Sissou entered into the social ' life of Harrisburg more than any oth , : <r. With his wife, he was a welcome „ guest at many Harrisburg homes and as entertainers General and Mrs. Sis son were well known in this city.

Governor Hastings was. perhaps, an exception, as he took part in the famous anti-Quay contests I during his administration, but after [ ward was a Quay man and put the Beaver Senator's name before the Chi oairo convention in for nomina . tion for the Presidency. Governor Stone presided at one political meeting. I Governor Penny-packer took small part in the game* Governor Stuart made a few speeches for .he ticket at the dose of the campaign, but evidently • disliked it, and only his friendship for the nominee, John K.
