WELCOMING THE PRESIDENT
THE most distinguished baseball Tan In the
country Is talking of coming to Philadel
phia, on Friday to see the opening of the
world's series. That this fan occupies the
position of President of the United States,
and that his mind, of recent days, has been
perturbed by wclt-polltllc and note-wrltlng,
will have very little effect on the essential
thing. The great fact Is that he will coma
here purely as a fan, Interested In a great
American sport, partaking of the thrills and
the Joys of the people to whom he owes his
eminence and his service.
No politics, then, In this welcome. Brother
fan Wilson Is wanted here to see the
Phillies win.
WHAT THE LAW SAYS
A Voluntary Contribution to the Repub
lican Central Campaign Committee for
campaign expenses will be much appreci
ated. A LETTER of which the above Is a copy
has been sent out to city and county
officeholders. It Is signed by David H. Lane
as city chairman, and countersigned by Ed
win H. Varo aa chairman of the Finance
Committee, and, quite significantly, has
stamped on it "10."
The first section of the article In the elec
tion laws dealing with election crimes and
penalties declares that it shall be unlawful
for any committee or any member thereof,
directly or Indirectly, to demand of any pub
lic officer or employe of any city or county
any assessment or percentage of any money
to be used for any political purpose whatso
ever. Tho second section of the law forbids any
officer of the Commonwealth or the head of
any department In any city to make or to
permit to be made any assessment for politi
cal purposes upon thoso under him.
The third section reads in this way:
Third. That no officer, clerk or employe,
under the Government of any city of the
first class within this commonwealth, shall,
directly or Indirectly, solicit, collect or re.
celve, or bo In any manner concerned In
demanding, soliciting or receiving, any as
sessment. subscription or contribution,
whether voluntary or Involuntary, intended
for any political purpose -whatever.
The proper penalties are provided for vio
lation. Senator Varo was doubtless advised that
he was within his rights as an officer of tho
Commonwealth when he signed his name to
this indirect demand for contributions from
city and county employes, but as Pudd'nhead
Wilson said, "It Is difference of opinion that
makes horse races."
PLOUGHSHARES AND ABSINTHE
THE changes which the Great War has
made in the minds of men cannot be
better symbolized than by the insignificant
incident of absinthe. The liquor was consid
ered by Frenchmen and foreigners alike to
be the curse of Paris. Today It is being
turned to uses of war.
The Important thing, though, Is not the
change In France, That country Is suffl
elently hard put to it to go to any extreme.
The truly significant thing is that the world
which waa won, to praise, with a deep sin
cerity, those who beat swords into plough
shares, will now praise those who distil ab
sinthe) into ammunition.
We have come to understand that war,
whs It is necessary, has its triumphs no less
than peace.
A FALL JN OSTRICHES
WHILE Bethlehem Steel and General
Motors go up, ostriches go down. They
re way below par now, and while every
thing Is asked, nothing is offered. In Blooms,
burg. Pa., the African Ostrich Farm and
Teather Company has departed this life and
.there is no Olive Bchrelner to make it Im
mortal. A pair of ostriches sold for as low
Ostriches are great birds, but they are
known to the world for but one habit.
It would be pleasant to think that the pres
ent decline and fall of ostriches is due" to
a. decline and fall In the habit of sticking
one's bead in a sand heap and believing that

BOOM TRANSIT, NOT TARIFF
"M"0 PHILADELPHIAN can be deceived by
' the pretense that It Is necessary to elct
Smith as Mayor In order to prove that this
Is a Republican city.
Porter Is a better Republican than Srallli.
He believes more firmly than Smith In the
principles of the Republican party, because
ho Is a man with fixed political principles
and does his own thinking.
The determination of the Organization to
bring hero a lot of Republican orators from
other States nominally to fight the first
skirmish In the battle of 1916, but really to
assist It In getting control of the local gov
ernment once more, Is part of a general plin
to confuse the voters.
The burning Issue here Is not protection,
because both Porter and Smith nre protec
tionists. The Issue on which the election
must bo decided Is the development of the
rapid transit system so that a man can ride
quickly and comfortably anywhero for a
flve-ccnt fare.
Unless the man In the Mayor's chair Is
honestly and heartily In favor of the transit
plans obstacle after obstacle will be put In
the way of their execution. Pretexts will bo
found for delaying new contracts. Excuses
will bo framed for continuing the three-cent
transfer system, and nothing will be left
undone to protect the financial Interests that
have fought the new plans and to contlnuo
tho Inconvenience from which the great mass
of the people are suffering.
Philadelphia cannot grow as it should If
such a conspiracy succeeds.
The great commercial organizations of the
city have plans under way for Increasing the
number of Its big industries, and for -developing
the water front and linking all Interests
more Intimately with the vast commercial
territory north, -west and south of us with the
nations of Europe and South America.
An indication of what the future holds ap
peared in the advertisement of a large de
partment store In the Sunday papers, where
much space was given to the prospects ahead
of this, the most American city on the con
tinent. The estimate of 4,000,000 population
in 1950 is not exaggerated. If the population
should lncreaso only 35,000 a year, as It Is
now doing, there will be 3,000,000 people
living here In 35 years.
The number of new Inhabitants each year
Is going' to increase with the growing city,
and plans for transit must be made long
years before 1950 if an intolerable congestion
is to be avoided.
Thirty-five years Is a short time in the
life of a community. The elevated railroad
system of New Tork Is only about 35 years
old. The subway system there has been
built within 15 years, and It was no sooner
completed than new subways had to he
planned.
Unless some unforeseen check shall stop the
growth of Philadelphia, the new transit llns
included in the Taylor plan will bo crowded
to their capacity within a year of their com
pletion and there will be at once an insistent
demand for more subways and elevated
railroads connecting the outlying districts
with the heart of the city.
Philadelphia will not tolerate any short
sighted, dog-in-the-manger policy In the
City Hall. It demands the adoption of a
policy that takes into account the inevitable
growth of the community and provides for
the future In a broad-minded and unselfish
manner.
Tariff talking is nothing but an effort to
divert attention from the burning issue.
AN ILLUMINATING INCIDENT
s
OME years ago the late Senator McCarty,
Syracuse, N. Y., met the late Senator
McCarty, a professional Democratic poli
tician of of Brooklyn, N. Y., for the first
time on a train on the way to Albany. The
professional Republican politician asked the
professional Democratic politician to what
party he belonged.
"I am a Democrat."
"Which party is in the majority in Brook
lyn?" asked the Syracuse man.
"The Democratic party."
"That is right. So long as Brooklyn stays
Democratic you must be a Democrat. Syra
cuse is Republican, and that is why I am a
Republican. It Is the only way to get on."
The Franklin party will, no doubt, be early
to rise.
Friday will be a lucky day for the league
champions.
Yale, after its defeat on Saturday, Is con
fident of a come-back somewhere In Massa
chusetts. Now if Joftre and Hindenburg could only
meet as frankly and simply as Lansing and
Bernstorffl
Mr. Garrison said too rnuch or too little
in his statement about why he believes in

rpHEY, too, are a people without a coun
X try those Armenians whom Ambassador
Morgenthau, according to reports, would help
emigrate to the United States. There are
nearly 8,000,000 In the world, almost as widely
dispersed ns the Jews, and like them pos
sessing a remarkable tenacity of raco and
faculty of adaptation to circumstances.
Frugal, sober, Industrious and Intelligent,
their sturdtness of character has enabled
them to preserve their nationality and re
ligion under the sorest trials. They are most
numerous In Asia Minor, tho seat of their
nnclent kingdom, but even in the district
known ns Turkish Armenia they comprise
but a fifth part of the population,
The Glory and the Grandeur
Armenia Is at present only an hlstbrlcal
conception, but In that character It is one
of the most Interesting countries on tho face
of tho globe, so closely Is It associated with
events narrated In the Bible nnd In the an
nals of early contacts nnd conflicts of rival
civilizations. Occupying a high tableland
which lies southwest of tho Caucasus and
stretches southward to tho Mcsopotamlnn
valleys and tho Garden of Eden, tho Armenia
which Is now nothlnn but a namo embraces
tho northeast corner of Asiatic Turkey, the
southern part of Asiatic Russia and the
northwest corner of Persia, with famous
Mount Ararat at the triple Junction of tho
frontlrrs. For n long time It endured tho
cxperienco of a "buffer Stntc," tho Roman
Empire on one side and tho Parthian power
on thn other, and later It went through, ns
often happens with "buffer States," a long
succession of conquests and partitions. But
beforo all that It has a history of Its own,
to the grandeur nnd glory of which tho dis
coveries of archaeologists, delving among tho
ruins of superb palaces nnd temples, aro nn
eloquent tribute.
Ancient Armenia, now one with Nineveh
and Tyre, was once peopled by the Hlttltcs,
who battled often nnd anon with the Baby
lonians and Assyrians and who wrested from
old Rameses tho Second, something more
than 3000 years ago, that treaty which gave
them possession of all northern Syria nnd
which today may be read on the walls of a
temple at Thebes. And these Hlttltcs, before
their effacement from trie tablets and scrolls
of history, dominated the peninsula of Asia
Minor and helped In the transmission of Ori
ental civilization from East to West, passing
on what they had learned from their Semitic
neighbors to the Lydlans, who in turn" com
municated their culture to the Greeks. For
tho Armenians are of a very old branch of
the Aryan stock, with which In later genera
tions Turanian and Semitic elements have
been mixed.
The antiquity of tho race Is unquestioned.
The Armenians of today trace their ancestry
back to Haig, grandson of Japhet. Ararat, in
the time of Noah, was the name of Armenia.
In Genesis it is recorded that "In the sev
enth month, on the seventeenth day of the
month, the ark rested upon the mountains
of Ararat," and on the slope of Mt. Ararat
Itself is a -village which, says tradition, was
founded by Noah when he landed after his
memorable experience with tho flood and the
doves. So, says tradition again, this Is the
oldest town In existence. Here Noah and his
family made their home, and from this place
his family scattered to obey the divine com
mand. The name of the little village is
Nakhtkhevan and It means In the Armenian
tongue, "He descended here."
The Armenians, so beset and persecuted
now for centuries, have therefore a very old
title to the country which tho survivors of
the massacres of this and other years may
finally abandon. From the South, from
Kurdistan, come their enemies to burn their
houses and to murder. These are the Kurds,
not their only enemies by any means, but
their enemies relentlessly on the Job. The
Kurds are almost the only race left that still
lives solely by the sword. They are nomadic
and not half-clvlllzed, and proudly claim to
be descendants of the concubines of Solomon,
It has long been the practice of their
marauding bands to levy tribute on the Ar
menians, breaking agreements over night and
carrying off their property and their wives
and children. They have had all sorts of en
couragement from the Sultans and the Turk
ish soldiery, as everybody knows, and when
an Armenian was murdered or robbed his
assailant was rewarded. The more Chris
tians a Kurdish chief could kill the more
rapid was his promotion In the favor of the
Ottoman Porte. In the reign of Abdul
Hamld nearly 100,000 Armenian Christians
suffered martyrdom, and it is believed that
as many more who fled to the mountains per
ished from exposure- and starvation.
Like the Children of Israel
No people have suffered so much for their
religion, not even the children of Israel, as
the Armenians, and the atrocities committed
upon them are the most barbarous that mod
ern history has recorded. The massacres
which reddened the years of 1895-6 and 1909
can never be forgotten, oven in the horrors
that have marked the past twelvemonth. Tho
Armenian outrages havo been mostly the
fruit of Moslem fanaticism, though It muat
be said that commercial Jealousy has had
something to do with it all. The Armenians
who inhabit Asia Minor by the Black Sea
are a simple, quiet, primitive people devoted
principally to agricultural and pastoral pur
suits (under such handicaps as a cruel des
potism has Imposed), but their brethren
who have gone out Into the countries round
about have displayed a wonderful aptitude
for commercial pursuits and in many cities
of the Near East they are the chief mer
chants and money lenders. They have been
more enterprUlng and successful Jn Turkey
than the Jews and Greeks, Their worst
enemy, Abdul Hamld, had such faith in their
sagacity and integrity that he Intrusted his
finances entirely to Armenians.
Most of the Armenians belong to what Is
called the Armenian Church, which origi
nated in the first national Christian church
in tho world, Tho King Tlrl dates adopted
the Christian religion 30 years before It was
accepted by Constanttne.

RIGHT NAME IN THE RIGHT PLACE
The Man Who Gave It to the "Franklin Party" and Who Is to
Manage the Campaign Against the Organization Made a
Good Beginning in the Fight
By HERBERT
D
ID you ever try, without Inspiration, to

how would you go
about picking out
Just the precise, In
evitable and indel
ible word or words
to fuse forever the
minds of all men
with your great
idea?
If you had been
HERBERT D. ALLSIAN
crossing Chestnut street bridge last Wednes
day morning about 9 o'clock and happened
to pass a middle-aged gentleman on the
south side, right near the B. & O. station,
you might have seen the light ot an inspira
tion flash across his countenance.
Two or three hours later on that same
morning, Herbert D. Allman, who had had
the inspiration, was in the whirlpool of mad
ness that Is called a political meeting. Three
hundred men from all parts of the city were
packed into the Independent headquarters
at 213 South Broad street, and none of
them knew what was to be the name
on the banner they were to light under n
the campaign against the Organization.
What was to be the name ot the new parly?
Eight or ten men of a subcommittee thought
they knew because they had voted almost
unanimously for a certain one of 20 names
that had been suggested the day before.
Among these names were "Union party,"
"Civic party," "Public party," "Liberty
party," and, others even worse. It was neces
sary to keep the name secret till It was actu
ally pre-empted at City Hall, because the
Organization would steal it and pre-empt it
In a minute If the name became known. It,
was necessary to pre-empt it that afternoon.
The 110 papers were all ready for the 300
citizens to sign. Then the news came on the
phone from City Hall that the Organization,
"or somebody," has pre-empted a party name
like the one chosen, with a prefix evidently
Intended to confuse the voter and rob the in
dependents of votes. It was necessary to get
a new name in a hurry.
Ready for the Emergency
Mr. Allman had forgotten his inspiration.
In the nerve-racking emergency came his
opportunity. "Franklin" was the word that
came to him on the bridge. "Franklin" was
written on the 110 papers that were rushed
to City Hall, and the Organization was out
witted. "By this sign ye shall conquer,"
The name took like wildfire. Everybody
shook hands on It. Even the clerks in the
Prothonotary's office, where the papers were
filed, couldn't help saying, "That's a peach of
a name!"
Franklin! "What a thought for him to
have had that day he trudged up Chestnut
street, in his dusty shoes, at the threshhold
ot the city he was to help make mighty, If
he had fancied that his mere name should
one day, 192 years later, strike a new fire
of hope into the hearts of those who had
vowed to carry to Its fulfilment that city's
baffled magnificence!
Mr. AJlman, now In harness, followed
up his "one-word ad" for his party with a
good "five-word ad" for the' man who Is to
head that party's ticket Mr, Porter. "The
man With the Punch" waa his next effort,
and the pictures of the Independents' can
didate for. Mayor, showing him In the act
of punching an extended palm with ener
getic et, are the result of this apt slogan.
Mr, AUman was the man, by the way, who
Invented the phrase "We know how," which
has beva so important a part of the" publicity
history of the Arm of which he was formerly
a member.

artist. His employer went to California for
his health and gave Mr. Allman his great
chance. The latter conceived the idea ot
establishing a mail-order system, which had
never been done beforo In that kind of busi
ness. Everything went so well that next
year, when he was 21, he got an Interest in
the business. He retired five years ago and

the necessary funds and did a lot of work

ber of the Executive Board of the Commit

the work, of engineering Director's Taylor'rt
Transit Committee of 1000. The businesslike
way in which he has done public-spirited
work of this kind commended him to the in

campaign and he was chosen campaign
manager last Friday. But there are many
