we demand for the prenervatlon of our
health or for the direction of the technical
branches of our own private business.
The dawning of the day will be hastened
when successful business men brltfft
tho pressure of their great Influence
bear upon the politicians to force tho se
lection it experts to do the work for
which expert knowledge Is required In the
pUblle onlces. Such discussions as have
been going on at tho University yesterday
and today ought to impress on these busi
ness men tho necessity for action.
A GOLDEN ERA OF PltOGRESS
rpitn independents of this city and
State, together with tho Independently
minded Itopubtlcana and Democrats, have
tho chanco of their llvci to force through
tho Loglslaturo the greatest progressive
measures In a generation.
The Governor, Penrose nnd tho Varci
have felt the groundswell of a rovolt that
la natlon-wldo. They see as who can
not seo? that each Slato has boon put
on Its mettle by tho national voice to de
clare Itsolf progressive or pultback, to
write Into Its lawn measures for tho up
building of Its stamina, of Its health, com
merce, highways nnd ports. Tho two
factions are rushing to get on tho band-
'wagon with rival programs of roform.
Pennsylvania can no longer hold aloof
from the national swing. The Stnto thnt
gavo Koosovolt 500,000 plurality because
It believed ho was moro progronslvo than
Parker cut that majority down to a min
imum because many thousands of Its citi
zens believed llughcn was not so pro
greRslvo as olthor Roosevelt or WIlBon.
Tho Evenino IiEDOEn bolleves thoy crrod
In judgmont about Hughes. But It can
not Beo the heavy Wilson vote nearly
50,000 above the normal Democratic voto
In this city as anything but tho effoct
of the samo moral Impulso that elected
Blankenburg, an Impulse to repudiate
ganglsm, though It broke tho voting
traditions of n llfcttmo to do It.
For tho time thero are no parties. We
are all awaking tp tho fact that wo have
been through a revolution. 'Who will
say to the ninety-odd thousand Phlladcl
phlans who aligned themselves with tho
man who declaros ho has put Into law
most of tho Roosevelt platform of 1912;
who will say to the State that gave Its
thirty-eight votes to that Progressive
platform when It rejected" both Taft and
vWllson as too conservative, that it is to
go backward?
Already two leaders have hastened to
accopt proposals that(have como from the
people and not from politicians. Senator
Varo and Governor Brumbaugh have
taken the least contentious proposal to
begin on, It is truo; but still It Is a sign
that thoy see the need of doflnlteness
that they Indorse the antl-narcotlc-drug
movement Tho Govornor Is less doflnlto
about the rest of his announced program
a great highway system, social legis
lation that will strengthen and widen
child, labor and compensation laws, and
laws to bring labor and capital closer
together.
But tho people.aro ready with pertinent
amendments and with reforms he does
not Insist on;
Freeing of the highways from tolls.
Unshackling this city from its me
dieval minor Judiciary. (
Giving this city homo rule and
tying the rest of the State up to Phil
adelphia Industrially.'
Pressing forward the woman suf
frage amendment anew, so that this
State will pot havo the humiliation of
being outvoted by smaller western
Commonwealths.
Urging tho democratic principle of
local option, which spreads beyond
tho liquor question to all other home
rulo community questions.
Abolishing dual office-holding,
Revising the Insurance laws. '
The Governor has a legislature In
which tho Republicans greatly outnumber
the Independents and Democrats, but the
tVare and Penrose factions are so evenly
divided that even a small body of Inde
pendents should be able to hold over
either faction a sword of disaster. Fall,
ing that, It could put both factions to
shame and whip them Into line behind a
progressive program.
Brumbaugh has the chance to write
himself down the exeat Governor who
saw the changing of the times and who
was so youthful and adaptable In, mind
and so quick In perception and sympathy'
as to catch the drift of thought in the
hearts of all men who unite for progres1
rtveness Wilson - faen, Hughes men,
Roosevelt men, The three "types of
mind that have battled for supremacy
In the nation may differ greatly on na
tional issues, but they do not differ on
the management of States, They are all
three progressive.

Knocking the M. D.'a
While hiding from my physician long
enough to recover from a long-drawn-out
but simple Illness, I entered one of those
mountain retreats called a sanatorium, In
that part of Pennsylvania where the boy

bell7 Veil, somebody belled I" ,
Soon I fell In with a number of other
"hide-outs" and entered with seat upon for.
bidden topics, especially the discussion of
tne symptoms 01 our respective aliments.
One fellow was telling us about an M. D.
who had apparently cured a friend, and who
had then been kindly sent by the friend to
"cure" the narrator of the story, In the
letter's case, however, the doctor signally
failed to slie up the situation and finally
side-stepped the case. Another of our
group commemea mat mey should both
have known that an l. D, who ever succeeds
in curing one case has doubtless fully
served his purpose, and like certain other
poor fish and Insects which die after laying
their eggs, should then make his exodus
from the profession while he has eome
laurels to rest on.
Then a poor, long-sufferlns Invalid tnid u.
that he once called upon an M. D. vitio had
been recommended as possessing special
skill In diagnosis, and when his turn arrived-
Introduced himself to the medico

"I am dyspeptic, neuralgic, rheumatic"

"Isn't that rather high, doctor?" said the

"Nol" replied the Doctor; "Anyone skill,

THE VOICE OF THE PEOPLE
A Suggestion to Congress and the State Legislatures to Designate
October 27 as "Fraternal Day" and an Antidote
for Socialism
FRATERNAL DAY
To the Editor of the Evening T.cdger:
Sir In viow of tho fact that the Na
tional Fraternal Congress of America, the
National .Fraternal Press AsaoclaUon arid
the Pennsylvania Fraternal Corjgress have
accepted tho cordial Invitation of Mayor
Smith, together with that of the Philadel
phia Chamber of Commerce, suitably to
commomorato tho .fiftieth annlvorsary of
the founding of tho American Fraternal
Beneficiary system In Philadelphia In the
last week of October, 1018, and that this
Is now suro to no an ovent of not only na
tional but also International Importance,
as well as of deep Interest to countless
millions, would It not be eminently proper
and right for the Congress of the United
States and tho Legislatures of tho various
States to pass a law or to take BUch other
action ae may be deemed both proper and
best In order to designate October 27 of
each year hereafter as "Fratornal Day," to
bo devoted to the Interests of tho Home,
Fraternallsm and Happiness?
Congtess has already given some consid
eration to this subject, and it only requires
the concerted efforts of those who believe
In these blessings In comparison with thi
contrary tendencies to volco their sentiments
In order to secure tho enactment of this
annual celebration, which would bo on tho
natal day of the founding of the fraternal
beneficiary system In America, by John
Jordan Upchurch, of Meadvllle, Pa., the fif
tieth anniversary of which Is to be cele
brated In Philadelphia In October, 1918, as
stated. B. N. IIAAG,

A BOUQUET FOR McCORMICK
Mr. Vance McCormlck Is certainly en
titled to congratulations, and so are Mr.
Morgenthau and the other men who con
tributed to largely to the Buccess ,of the
campaign, It is to their credit that they
conducted a remarkably clean and
straightforward canvass, unusually free
from personalities and abuse of the other
fellow. We believe that they would wel
come an inquiry Into the conduct of their
aide of the campaign. It Is true that the
real strategy of the battle came from the
White House. It Is also true that they
urged upon the President a round of stump
speaking, which would have been a mistake.
Mr, Wilson, too, was in a sense their cam
paign. None the less, it was a clean, hon
est aboveboard. legitimate bit of political
work, Mr. McCormlck himself Is the type
of man who ought to leau in our political
life. New York Evening Post

RUBBING IT IN
To the Editor of the Evening Ledger:
Sir You wanted to havo things come
your way. You can't always bo too sure
of a thing, ,
Magnetic Magician Wilson performed two
"Impossible" feats, firstly winning his
election as Governor of Republican New
Jersey, and secondly, tho late remarkable
election remarkable because of the united
Republican Party, as the Republican vote,
divided between Taft and Roosevelt, ex
ceeded that cast for Wilson overwhelmingly.
The balance against Wilson was over
1,300,000 votes an apparohtly hopeless
handicap for"any party. It fell to Wilson
to overcome this, up-hill handicap and to
t,urn the adverso balance Into a credit A
remarkablo feat this. Wilson Is a great
man Tho country has approved his lid
ministration. Like "fall" there should be
no such words as "Impossible" nnd "too
sure." Unforeseen things will not always
come your "sure" way. The election result
of Tuesday haa happened Wilson's "Im
possible" way. M. P. L.

NATIONAL POINT OF VIEW
Wc han nn adequate paper defense.
Theoretically wo are competent to expel an
enemy. On our statute books we have a
fairly Impreestvo army. And nowhere else,
Chicago Tribune.
Both Wilson and Hughes were pledged to
tho policy of appointing postmasters of all
tissues through competitive civil service ex
aminations Any memfcer of Congress who
delays thlf Veform ought to be squelched,
and If It Is dolayed it will be known It Is
for a eelflsh purpose. Ohio State Journal.
California mokes the trouble' and expects
tho rest of the country to protect It. It
may make a war and drag the rest of the
country into It. California Is our Junker
State In all except willingness to strengthen
tho ability of the Federal Govornment to
meet the trouble It may make and Is per
fectly willing to make. California ought to
havo glvon the Republican tfeket a great
majority. A State which demands the
privilege of making trouble ought to be
wlllngto meet It. It ought to be wjlllng
to take ordinary precautions against con
sequences. Chicago Tribune.
A new situation has been created by one
of the most remarkable elections In the
history of American politics. A solid South
and a nearly solid West now confront a
nearly solid East. To that complexion Old
Guard Bourbontsm has at last reduced the
once-powerful Renuhlfrnn nn.iv -kt.

Indubitably, Congress will gain by Miss
Rankin's appearance, bu,t for her It will
doubtless be a great ordeal to be the first
woman to appear in one of tho greatest par
liaments in th world. The fact that she Is
the first woman to receive such an. honor
will surely help her over the embarrass
ments of her position. Now York Evenlne:
Post.
AMEN!
If all the bad things Republicans have
said of Democrats and all that .Democrats
have said of Republicans during the cam
paign' that has Just passed are true, this
dear old country Is In a bad fix and needs
a great deal more prayer than It doeegis
latlon. Of course, not half was meant that
was said, and It was all utterd ,tn
the offices and not to glorify the Republic

will and to practice that frajernlty which
is better for a. country than armies or
tariffs. Ohio State Journal.
