E. Sawyer, 2 home- ' opathic physician of Marion, Ohio, to the rank of Brigadier General and then hark back to its bickering and grudging consent to make Dr. Cary T. Grayson a Rear Admiral we are all the more convinced that during the past eight years the Senate acted more on the instigator than the suggestion | itself. —1If the industrial stagnation is to last throughout the summer there will be more personal return for the un- employed man in an intensively worked garden than there was during the war when wages were high and jobs were everywhere. Then he had money to buy potatoes and onions and cabbage but he doesn’t have so much of it now and a good garden will pro- duce many a meal for the family that has no where else to look for one. —Governor Sproul is most persist- ent in his determination to put a tax on coal at the mouth of the mines. His first proposal to tax only anthracite died a bornin’ because it would have | been adjudged unconstitutional, as was a similar bill passed several years ago. Attorney General Alter has evidently come to his rescue with a draft of a bill that is believed would pass the acid test of Supreme court analysis. The latest plan is to tax all coal that is sold for five dollars or more a ton at the mouth of the mine. This would insure revenue from all anthracite and catch bituminous should it soar again as it did last year. The founder of the “Watchman” years ago publicly advo- cated a tax on natural resources. His ideas were based almost wholly on personal knowledge of lumber and coal fields; their development and de- cadence. During the development and operation thriving communities are built up requiring vast outlays for roads, schools, homes, etc. Then when the lumber was cut off or the coal worked out, all the natural wealth gone, the community becomes pau- perized because its location is often not fitted for any other industrial ac- tivity and those who can move out, leaving a burden too great for those who have put all of their savings into homes, to carry. Of course, Governor Sproul’s idea of where such taxes should go is very different from that of the late P. Gray Meek and in that difference there is possibly less justi- fication for his proposed tax on natur- al resources. The former would scat- ter it broadcast through the State’s varied appropriations. The latter would have refunded the major por- tion of it for the schools, roads and welfare work in the townships from which it accrued. STATE RIGHTS AND FEDERAL UNION. NO. 12. VOL. 66. Cause of the Change. The new Secretary of the Treasury appears to be following closely the office. seems to think that the policies pur- sued by his predecessor are in the in- terest of the country. The new Sec- retary of War and the new Secretary steps of their predecessors and the on certain foreign policies adopted by Woodrow Wilson. Even the League of Nations is now treated as an enter- prise of possible merit and though the title is offensive the purpose is admit- ted as within the pale of reason. What has caused this change in the official mind ?

It was a terrible po- | sition for any mere man to occupy. Probably to no human being in all his- | tory did the hopes, the prayers, the ' aspirations of so many millions of his : fellows turn with such poignant inten- ! sity as to him at the close of the war. ! At a time of the deepest darkness and | dispair he had raised aloft a light to | which all eyes had turned. He had | spoken divine words of healing and i consolation to a broken humanity.” The denunciation of Wilson follow- ing this frame of the public mind was simply an expression of the conspira- cy of the small minds of Lodge, and Taft and others who envied the dis- tinction Woodrow Wilson had attain- ed. They couldn’t endure the light which his name gave to the world and set out to destroy him by malice and falsehood. Everything he did they de- nounced bitterly and with such per- sistence that finally the public mind was perverted into the belief that charges against the President were true. The adoption of his policies since the change of administration is proof positive not only of the falsity of the charges but the insincerity of : those who made them. The emergency tariff bill is to be rushed through Congress at high speed, according to Washington dis- patches. The Republican leaders seem anxious to check the downward tendency of necessaries of life. Able to Pay and Must. i When the German army was run- "ning its devastating course through , Belgium no questions were asked as , to ability to pay the heavy tribute ‘levied on the stricken cities. It.was a (billion francs in one place and twice that amount in another and the time limit for payment never exceeded a couple of days. It was a case of pay or suffer and the operation involved “both. But the conquering Huns felt no sympathy and expressed no com- passion. They were proceeding on { the high tide of prosperity and gave no thought to the future. The work | of destruction seemed like a labor of love to them and they rejoiced in the ' distress which their cruelties entailed. the work of a cruel War Lord whose | absurd ambition to dominate the world { blinded him to the consequences of ! the cruelties inflicted. The German | Kaiser was not entirely responsible | for the atrocities that attended the | German invasion of Belgium and i France. He was urged on by the craf- “ty and covetous junkers who hoped to ' coin profits for themselves out of the ! miseries they were inflicting. The : Kaiser may be as black as he is paint- | | ed and as cruel as imagination makes him. But the atrocities of the Ger- | ity for the war is on the German peo- where it belongs. The council of the victorious allies ! have appraised the damages of the war and fixed the terms of payment. den upon a people who seemingly had little to do with the cause. But it is just and justice is quite as great a virtue as generosity. The German junkers will have to pay and they are not only able to pay but should be willing. They engaged in a specula- pay the damages. generously treated in matter. ilization, of course, terest of commerce. It will not do to say that this was The women temperance workers of | the State have been trying to force Governor Sproul into an ugly hole. Some months ago, in a speech deliv- ered in Pittsburgh, the Governor de- is one deformity in Pennsylvania which must be erased. The State is licensing people to do a thing in violation of the laws of the Republic. We will have to change that. Our enforcement laws must conform to the national law.” He was speaking of the enforcement of the Volstead act of Congress. The wom- en workers interpret his statement as a declaration in favor of the repeal of the Brooks’ high license law and are trying to hold the Governor to his self-imposed obligation on the subject. For some reason the Governor has changed his mind on the question. He now declares that the Brooks’ law ought to be amended but not repealed. He has not given his reasons for this change of front on the subject of vi- tal interest, other than that he was not fully informed when he made his Pittsburgh speech. The women are not inclined to accept this excuse. In a circular issued recently and widely circulated among the law makers of the State at Harrisburg they quote his Pittsburgh speech literally and ex- tensively and claim the Governor's support of repeal measures they are pressing. And this fact is in the face of a declaration to the contrary made to them a week ago. The women temperance workers may be wise in thus pilloring His Ex- cellency. - In most instances they have shown considerable sagacity in polit- ical operations and hoped to put this one over on the Governor. Recent in- cidents in his party relations with Penrose indicate an absence of that vertebrae that wins victories. But at this distance from the scene it looks as if they have organized a bitter fight that will end in disaster. Upon the question in issue there is not the unanimity in public sentiment which carried everything the Prohibitionists desired a couple of years ago and the women workers have been going a tri- fle strong during the present session of the Legislature. —Centre county is lagging lament- ably in the drive for the relief of Eu- - ropean children. We have done our share to the starving tots of Armenia, but we haven’t helped Mr. Hoover out with those three million other ones that he set out to feed. ——————e meee: Unjust Complaint of Favors. Complaint is made in various sec- tions of the country that Pennsylva- nia is getting more than a just share of the spoils of office under the Hard- ing administration. The State gets two members of the cabinet, which is out of proportion but not without precedent, but that fact is not the dis- turbing element. It is the other offi- ces that are being handed out to Sen- ator Penrose’s friends that are object- ed to, for some of them are peculiarly attractive. Among those in this class is that of Ambassador to Spain, which is one of the highest salaried diplomat- ic posts in the service and one of the softest. The Ambassador to Spain has little to do except enjoy himself and the best environment for doing $0. But Republicans have no right to complain because the followers of Sen- ator Penrose are being favored in the distribution of patronage by the Harding administration. Senator Pen- rose is not only the inspiration but he is the inventor of the Harding admin- istration. Of course our big Senator had willing and efficient help in his enterprise to make Harding President through the co-operation of Attorney General Daugherty, of Ohio, and chairmaan Hays, both of whom have been rewarded by cabinet appoint- ments. But reduced to the last analy- sis it was Penrose who picked, groom- ed and nominated Harding and it is ' eminently fit that his efforts in that | man army as well as the responsibil- ple and the penalty should be placed direction should be generously reward- ed. Besides in the selection of Cyrus E. Woods for the office of Ambassador to Spain Senator Penrose chose so wisely It may seem hard to put such a bur-- of the accounts and we can see no rea- | son for sympathy or relaxation in the | of that sort must give way in the in- as to command assent. Mr. Woods is a diplomat by nature and has cultivat- ed the art to a degree. He has served as Secretary of the Commonwealth under the administrations of Governor ' Brumbaugh and Sproul and though these chiefs are as opposite as the ' poles he has managed to give entire satisfaction to both of them. He has even managed to retain the personal tive enterprise that was as wicked as support of Senator Penrose while sat- it was wanton and there is no reason isfactorily serving Brumbaugh and why they should not be compelled to ' Sproul and it must be admitted that They have been that is a great achievement in diplo- the adjustment macy. No other politician has been able to accomplish it. ——Let us hope that the sly French | diplomat, Viviani, will not put any- ——Great Britain is strong on civ- | thing over on President Harding, dur- but considerations ing his coming visit.

The League is composed of fifty or more ' Representatives in the Legislature known as “up-State” members. At a meeting held on Tuesday morning Auditor General Snyder informed these gentlemen that unless additional revenues were provided for not more than $100,000,000 would be available for appropriations this year. The Auditor General suggested various subjects of taxation that might be in- voked. Among them is the infant in- dusty of “boot-legging,” in which he said, one-fourth of the citizens of the State are engaged. He also suggest- ed taxing gasoline, municipal utility plants, coal and royalties on oil and gas lands. The “up-State” law makers didn’t give full assent to the taxing program of General Snyder. to tax royalties probably jarred them. But they went voraciously for a man- ufacturing capital tax, a tax on coal and the Phillips’ natural resources tax, which includes taxes on oil, cement and other mineral products of the soil. Out of a levy on all these objects it ought to be possible to raise enough revenue to give every member a local appropriation of one kind or another and establish his reputation for states- manship. That the burden would be upon the ultimate consumer makes no difference to the urban or suburban Legislator. What he wants is “the old flag and an appropriation.” At the suggestion of Governor Pennypacker some years ago the Leg- islature levied a tax on anthracite coal which was collected by the coal mine owners with much care and as- siduity for some time. But the money was never paid into the State Treas- ury. It was simply held until a vast amount had accumulated and upon the petition of the mine owners was declared unconstitutional by the court. But it was not handed back to those who had paid it. It was divided among those who had collected it with the addition of an enhanced price, and that was the end of it. Are the “up- State” law makers preparing another bonus of that sort for somebody? If so the public ought to be taken into their confidence. —Our friend Al Dale thinks that the editorial “And Nero Fiddled” that was published in the “Watchman” last week was a classic. We can under- stand this decidedly flattering com- ment only in the light of bread cast on the water. Some years ago Al was the Memorial day orator in Bellefonte and his oration so impressed us that in a news story of the day’s observ- ance we stated that it was the best one ever delivered in the Union ceme- tery. We hadn’t heard them all, of course, but we meant what we said all the same. Al must have believed us for after reading “And Nero Fid- dled” over again we can’t understand how else the bread could have return- ed. ——We notice that our old friend, John F. Short, of Clearfield, has eight hundred cases of bonded whiskey, val- ued at eighty thousand dollars, for sale. John, you know, is United States marshall for the western dis- trict of Pennsylvania and by order of Judge Orr, of the United States dis- trict court of Pittsburgh, the eight hundred cases of whiskey recently seized by prohibition agents at Pitts- burgh have been turned over to Mar- shal Short to be sold. —S.

The suggestion ! Tariff and Taxation. From the Philadelphia Record. Our esteemed contemporary, The Literary Digest, advises us that as Congress will meet in a few days, “now is the time for the press of the country to declare its views, while the program is in a formative stage, and before it is too late to influence it by public opinion.” Wherefore it asks us to contribute to a symposium our answers to these questions: Which do you think Congress should take up first, the tariff or taxation? If the tariff, what sort of a measure do you favor? If taxation, what change do you advo- cate? Should Congress abolish the excess- profits tax? Change the income tax? Raise the exemption limit? Reduce the surtax? Enact a sales tax or other taxes to make up revenue loss? > Prefacing our answers with a mod- est disclaimer of the idea that an over- , Wwhelmingly Republican Congress is ' breathlessly awaiting the advice of a Democratic newspaper, we endeavor | to reply categorically: We think Congress should take up | taxation first. Obviously, any change lin the tariff will be in the direction of | an increase of duties. Equally obvi- i ously, any increase in duties will tend | to diminish imports. Europe owes us, iin addition to $9,700,000,000 of gov- ! ernment loans, a sum variously esti- ; mated at from four to nine billions. | She cannot pay itin gold, and we ! would not wish her to. She can only ‘pay it in goods. If we cut down the | volume of our imports, we cannot go | on exporting. And our future pros- | perity will largely depend upon our | export trade. There is a serious flaw ; in the economic reasoning which seeks . to improve our position by preventing gay creditors from paying their debts 0 us. | As to taxation, we occupy a waiting { and receptive attitude. The new Ad- | ministration was elected on a pledge | to reduce taxation, and we would be ‘ the last to wish to put any obstacle in the way of fulfillment. There are i sound reasons for lightening the ex- cess profits tax and any others the ef- forts to evade which tend to divert money into unproductive channels; but until the Republicans achieve the economies which they promised, the ! reduction of the sum total of taxation | must prove extremely difficult, and any effort to make up a deficiency in i the revenues from direct taxation by { a resort to high protective duties is bound to add to the complications al- ‘ ready attending our enormous “favor- able” balance in foreign trade. If there is anybody who believes i that the Republican party is really ' going to reduce taxation, ner is the i time for him to prepare himself for a ‘ crushing disappointment. If there is i anybody who believes that the collec- | tion of our foreign debt will be facili- ! tated by rejecting the only currency i with which the foreigner can pay, he tis in for a disillusionment that is | going to be very costly to the world’s | greatest creditor nation. In the Matter of George Harvey. i From the New York World. What is the meaning of all this talk ‘about Republican opposition in the | Senate to the appointment of Colonel George Brinton McClellan Harvey to Ambassador Extraordinary and Plen- ipotentiary to the Court of St. James? How can a Republican Senate repudi- ate Colonel Harvey without repudiat- ing itself ? Colonel Harvey framed the foreign policy of the Senate. He wrote the “Hymn of Hate” against Woodrow Wilson and set it to music and taught Henry Cabot Lodge to sing itina high falsetto voice for greater dramat- ic effect. It was in Colonel Harvey’s room in the Congress hotel, in Chicago, that the best minds assembled on that his- torical June night when they “put over” Warren Gamaliel Harding—to use the eloquent words of the Hon. Harry Daugherty. During most of the campaign Colonel Harvey was the Mayor of the Front Porch, author and censor alike of the candidate’s speech- es and public statements. Indeed, it is whispered about in the higher spheres of the Republican party, and commonly believed by the Republican intelligenzia, that it was Colonel Har- vey who prepared the Harding speech of August 28, defining the foreign pol- icy of the Republican party, and that he had much to do with the inaugural address, which still stands as the clas- sic of Pollyanna politics. The Republicans won the election by capitalizing the national grouch, and George Harvey is the super-grouch of the Republican party. Some of his critics pretend that he has not been a Republican long enough to have earn- ed the Ambassadorship of St. James, but they forget how quickly the bal- ance can be redressed by the zeal of a new convert. George Harvey embodies the foreign policy of the Harding administration, and if he is not fit to go to London the policy itself is not fit to go there. Who else is so well qualified to tell the British government what Mr. Harding thinks as the man who told Mr. Hard- ing what Mr. Harding thinks? ——Since Harvey is to get one im- portant diplomatic post it is just as well that Hearst shall get another. That will make a clean-up of newspa- per scavengers. ——Mr. Bryan is sixty years old and if he will take his proper place on the retired list some of his past blun- ders will be forgotten and all of them forgiven. ; SPAWLS FROM THE KEYSTONE. —As George Sheets, 81, was mounting the steps to the entrance of the Williams- port hospital to undergo treatment for heart trouble, he dropped dead. —The body of Edward F. Seibel, of Sayre, was found on Monday suspended by three ropes in the upper floor of a barn near his home. There was a rope around each foot and the third rope was twice wound around his neck. Friends say he had been testing a physical train- ing device and that death was accidental. He was 45 years old, a tinsmith and active in fraternal orders. —Two four year old boys, George, son of Andrew Toth, and Alfred, son of J. H. Career, of Jorytown, Northampton county, were burned to death last Saturday when a building in which a motorcycle was stor- ed was destroyed by fire. The children climbed through a hole in the rear of the structure, and it is believed they were playing with matches and set fire to gas- oline that had been stored there. —The contract for the sinking of the twin shaft at Cramer, Jefferson county, by the Northwestern Mining and Exchange company, has been let to a Scranton firm, and work has been started on the job. This coal operation, the company states, will be the largest in the United States, and $1,500,000 will be expended in complet- ing the mines. It will be equipped for an out put of 3000 tons every eight hours. —With the river at Clearfield at flood stage, Thomas, Melvin and Robert Graham, Lawrence and Cecil Cupler and Clyde Wal- lace, dropped into the Susquehanna in a cage ferry Thursday morning when the ca- ble broke. Fortunately the top of the cage was open, and as it struck the water the men were floated out on top stream. Two of the men could not swim, but Law- rence Cupler succeeded in landing them safely on the shore. —David Brandt, who was found dead in bed at Meyersdale, on Saturday, a short time ago, fearing the security of his mon- ey in a bank, drew out his savings, said to have amounted to $1000, and is thought to have buried the money. He died with his secret, as his relatives have been unable to locate the hidden hoard. He leaves his mother, aged 96; a brother, Ludwig Brandt, of Pittsburgh, and a sister, Mrs. William Daberko, of Meyersdale. —Mrs. Frank Loy, of Houtzdale, while working in her kitchen last Thursday saw a child sink in Beaver run, which passes her house. Without a moment's hesita- tion she rushed from the house, vaulted the five foot fence, and rushing to the stream’s edge dived into the ice-cold water and res- cued the 18 month old child of Mrs. Jules Frelin, which had fallen into the rushing waters. The baby had gone down for the third time when the woman rescued her. —Judge Cummings, of Northumberland county, on Friday directed the sale of the Sunbury and Selinsgrove Electric Rail- road company, the Sunbury, Milton and Lewisburg Railroad company and the Chillisquague Connecting Railroad compa- ny which have been in receiver's hands for more than seven years. The ordgr of sale of the three properties was made (o satisfy mortgage bond claims of more than $600,000 upon which interest has been de- faulted for eight years. —Mrs. Laura M. Pressler, of Mount Un- ion, has been awarded $9000 for the death of her husband, killed in the performance of his duties as a cerpenter near Mapleton, October 13th, 1919. He was repairing water troughs for the Pennsylvania Rail- road and was run down by a train. After action for damages had been brought in New York State, allowable under Federal control, a compromise was reached. Un- der Pennsylvania compensation laws the widow would have received $3500. —William W. Wirtue, of Pittsburgh, was arrested at Lebanon last Friday by the police, after a spectacular chase. When located in the home of his mother-in-law in that place, Wirtue leaped from a second story window and avoided the police, only to return there and be apprehended by po- liceman Reed, who disregarded Wirtue's threat of violence and followed him into the cellar of the home. Wirtue is wanted in Williamsport for forgery and may be also wanted for automobile thefts. —REight dozen raw oysters, according to spectators, were gulped down after a Sun- day dinner by Anthony Cataldo, a machin- ist, of Elwood City. The feat was per- formed on a bet of $5. Cataldo was one of several dinner guests at the home of Peter Lassari, who mentioned that later on there would be a little oyster supper. This prompted Cataldo to declare he could eat more raw oysters than any other man present. A bet was arranged between the host and his guest. The sixth dozen was Lassari’s Waterloo. Cataldo dropped twenty-four more oysters down his gullet. —Two widely known men of Buffington township, Indiana county, killed them- selves within ten hours by shooting them- selves with shotguns. William Campbell, of near Dilltown, a farmer with a large ac- quaintance, took a gun out into his barn, rigged it up so that he could touch the trigger with a pick, and later his wife found him dead. James Cravens, a merch- ant of Creekside, was the other unfortu- nate individual. He had been ill, but he seemed to have been in such excellent spir- its just prior to the time of his death that has friends believe that his death was due to accidental discharge of the gun. Mistaken for a burglar, Harold, 18 year old son of Councilman Commodore Bodine, of Berwick, was shot late Satur- day night and is dying in the Berwick hospital with a revolver bullet in a lung. He was accompanying Miss Margaret Smethers to her home, and as he stepped around the cornér of the house, Guy Smethers, the girl's brother, fired at him, A man had been heard on the porch a mo- ment before, and Smethers’ father had called for him to bring the revolver. Just as Smethers stepped on the porch Bodine, with Miss Smethers, came in sight and be- fore he recognized the visitor, Smethers fired. —On Monday the Lewistown Gazette passed into new hands with Hon. F. C. Bowersox as its editor. The Gazette, 2 weekly newspaper, was founded in 1811 by Major William P. Elliott and James Dick- son, Esq., but the partnership was tem- porarily severed the following year when Elliott became a soldier in the war of 1812. In 1846 it was purchased by George Fry- singer, who moulded its destiny for 39 years, when it was purchased by George and James Stackpole, who operated it un- til a few weeks ago when it was bought by the Lewistown Sentinel. Mr. Bowersox, the new editor, is president of the Roose- velt Republican club of that place. George F. Stackpole, former owner and editor is to be retained in the employ of the Dally Sentinel company.
