Aided Government Reforms
"Between 1803 nrfd ipid the Presi
dent made me a member of the United
States Commission te reorganize the
Government service, of the Commission
te Reconstruct the Business Methods of
the Departments at Washington, which
was in every way similar te the com
mission headed by Senater Woodward.
which is new nt work reorganizing our
Pennsylvania government.
MI ,was a member of the Cemmls.
alen te Investigate and Recommend
.Measures of Relief for the Condition
of Agriculture and te reform the Land
Administration of the Government.
"What I, regard, though, as the one
great achievement of my years of serv
ice In Washington came in 1010, when
I defeated the efforts of Secretary Bal
linger te turn Alaska, with its won
derful coal mines and its millions of
timber' lands, ever te the Guggenheim
banking interests. A congressional in
quiry was ordered, with the result that
Ballingcr, who was Secretary of the
Interior, quit his office.
"Since 1010 I have been president
of the National Conservation 1lssecla
tlen and n member of the Commhlen
for Amending and Revising the Con
stitution of Pennsylvania. Since my
record Is under scrutiny, It might be
well te recall that I was partly In
strumental in the creation of the Bu
reau of Mines.
"It was with the support nnd co
operation of President Roosevelt that
Jehn Mitchell, Jeseph A. Helmes and
myself were able te secure the creation
of the Bureau of Mines.
"I think that with this frank state
ment I have answered the criticism that
I have no experience in executive work
and knew nothing about the affairs of
the Government."
"Wiat about the allegation that
you're an Idealist? That you are im-
SracUcal. That if you ever became
roverner this trait will qrep out con
spicuously," I asked.
The question seemed te tickle the
risibilities of the gentleman from Pike.
He confessed that it" was an old and
familiar criticism of his personality.
Then he began te answer It with state
ments of fact.
What Roosevelt Said of Him
"I am an idealist. I am what Theo Theo
eore Roosevelt described as a 'practical
idealist.' Roosevelt said that of me. He
was also kind enough te say that I net
only had ideas and Ideals, but that I
knew hew te put them ever.
"De net forget," and again that long
right forefinger shot out, "that Mr.
Roosevelt was the author of that very
remarkable declaration, 'I regard ag
gressive fighting for right Ideals the
tincst sport in the world.'
"I am State Ferester of Pennsyl
vania. When I was appointed In 1020
by Governer Sproul I decided te place
Pennsylvania nt the head of all ether
States in the matter of the care and
administration of Its forests. Today
Pennsylvania has the finest system f
forestry In the country.
"Ne ether deportment ln the State
Government is managed as efficiently
nnd administered as carefully as that of
forestry.
"Anether charge brought against me
Is that I can't work with ether peeple:
that I will net play the game: that I
am bullheaded nnd ebstlnntc. I'll have
te deny that charae.
"Millions of dollars have been lest te.
rarmers ana iami owners in past years
by forest and farm fires from locomo
tive sparks. It has taest the railroads
millions.
"Last year I Invited the president of
every railroad In PennsyUnnla te come
te Ilarrisburg, or send a representative,
and talk ever this very vital matter.
We held our meeting. Wc talked the
situation ever. We mutually agreed
upon what should be done. What was
the result? v
"Thirteen hundred miles of fire lines
were laid and cared for by the rail
roads. The result of that meeting meant
te the farming and lumber Interests of
the State n snvlng of millions of dol
lars." Is He a Radical?
"Are you a Radical? That Is one of
the assertions against you," I inquired,
taking up the last objection te his can
didacy. "Why don't you put your question
ln full force as some of my friends of
the opposition have done?" asked Mr.
Plnchet quizzically. "Whv don't you
ask if I am net only n radical but n
populist, a communist?" And once
mere Plnchet indulged In his expan
sive smile. Then he went en :
"Three courses pursued by me in
recent years have given rise te this
unique conception' of my character.
When President Roosevelt was putting
ever certain of his Ideas he wns de
nounced as n 'radical. .Yet Mr. Reese.
velt saw thesv principles ultimately
win. Today they arn everywhere re
garded us triumphs of administration,
while Roosevelt himself will go down In
history as the Oreat Republican.
"I presume I am denounced as a
'radical' because I steed for the people
of the United Stares against the com
bined Interests that sought te filch the
wealth of Alaska. I have advocated
equal suffrage. I have been opposed
te tha liquor traffic all my life and at
a time when it was politically danger
ous te de se. I have advocated the
enactment of anti-child labor laws, the
protection of women in Industry nnd
compensation for the working-man.
"If that is held te he radical, then,
by heavens. I'm radical," sold Mr.
Plnchet with emphasis. -
"I have the support," he went en.
"as a result of all this, and I am proud
of it, of the Women's Temperance or
ganizations, of the Women's Christian
Association, of women's organizations
generally. Why? Because of my per
sistent stamr In favor of their recogni
tion In the affairs et government, a
square deal in labor and the protection
of their children'.
"Every saloonkeeper in Pennsylvania,
I presume, Is working teeth and nail
against us. Every man who desires te
exploit the labor of women and children
has hH hand against me. Why? Ho He
cause Pin out In the open against them.
"I.et'me say that when this primary
fight is ever no voter ln Pennsylvania
will dare say thnt Glfferd Plnchet
evaded an issue. I want every voter
te knew just where I stand."
He towered ahove me as he uttered
these words, and I felt convinced that
he meant every word that he uttered,

Continued from Fate On
of Alter would force the withdrawal of
Fisher. Fisher, however, refused te
withdraw and his friend are loudly
charging treachery en the part of these
who were supposed te he In favor et
the nomination of the State Banking
Commissioner.
The sleting of the Attorney General
was accomplished en the lest day pos
sible for the filing of nomination peti
tions. '
.The "bossing" which has resulted in
the slating of Alter nnd the frantic ef
forts which were mode te try te in
duce Fisher 40 withdraw hnve aroused
deep resentment in nil parts of Penn
sylvania, say lcndern of the Plnchet
cnmrmlgn, which In bound te send the
stock of the Ferester booming te the
pellticnl heavens.
Frem new en support is expected te
pour Inte Plnchet headquarters, new that
the lines hnvc been pretty clearly defined.
Women voters, who have been acting
with rcmarkabic independence and po
litical sagacity In the preliminaries te
the primary election, ere counted en t
submerge the bosses in nu avalanche
of votes. It is pointed out thnt when
no such crucial issues were nt stake"
Mrs. Leah Marien Cobb, of the Women's
Christian Temperance Union, polled
about 130.000 votes against Senater
Penrose when he wns a candidate for
renomlnatien for the Inst time.
It was the fear of these Independent
votes, which arc sure te be greatly in
creased by the publicity attending the
work of the bosses, that spurred the
leaders te try te get a complete con
centration en n harmony candidate
against Plnchet.
Mrs. Wnrburten's Statement
They failed in I his, and new Mrs.
Barclay It. Wnrburten. vice chair
man of the Republican Stntc Commit
tee, n champion of Plnchet, has made
this significant statement:
"In view of the announcement that
a compromise candidate for Governer
has been agreed upon, it is only fair te
inform the women of Pennsylvania that
their representative was net included
in the negotiations conducted by the
State lenders. The women will net be
deceived into lM-licving that a com
promise candidate will be free te net
for the best interests of the State, and
they will recognize in this action nn
effort te break down the direct primary
in the interest of a small group."
The passing up of Mackey by the
Vnre organization in favor of Alter, a
development net at all surprising te
these who have been following the
course of the lenders, wns received by
ninny Vnre lenders today as glad tid
ings. Many of them did net llki Mack
ey and they did net hesitate te state
their views with clearness. Richard
Wcgleln, president et Council, for ex
ample, preerred Ilcidlemnn, Council
man Hall ami "Tem' Cunningham ere
pleased that they arj net called en te
roll up their sleeves for Mackey.
In announcing his candidacy, Alter
said :
"Friends whose judgment I cannot
disregard have fe urged me te have my
name go before the Itcpublicnn veteis
for nomination for the office of Gov Gov
ereor that t have felt Impelled te con
cur. This I de with icluciuuce, bemuse
it docs net fit in with the future ns I
had planned it.
"At first thought it seemed unfor
tunate te be in competition with ether
candidates, with whom I am most
friendly. It Is apparent, tiewcver,
that we are merely affording the voters
an opportunity te select such ene of
us as they may see fit and thnt no ele
ment of personal stilfn ls involved.
"Prier te the pilnuiry I expect te
be pretty fully occupied with the du
ties of my department, wheic I hope
te maintain business ns usual. 1 shall
net go much from place te place, hut ,
shall tuke early opportunity te state I
my views upon such questions as seem '
relevant." )
Docter Examines Alter
Befere announcing his candidncy,
Mr. Alter was examined ns te hi phy
sical Illness for n campaign by Dr. Ed
ward Mnrlin, State Health Commis
sioner. ,
In cnntiecllnn with thn fact that
Philadelphia is only icpi fronted by one
place en thu Organization slate, 11 fact
which is fiuisiiic much comment in Or
ganizatien circles In t lie light nf the'
boasted Vare strength is the story that
if Dr. Edgar Falls Smith, former pro
vost of the University nf Pennsylvania,
had been in the ity, or in reach Inst
Wednesday, he might have been slntcd
instead of Alter. Dr. Smith was in
Alabama and could net be reached by
Governer Sproul and W. Harry Baker,
who tried te get him en the telephone.
Vernen F. Tayler, Western Pennsyl
vania director f the Fisher campaign,
arriving here after a conference with
Fisher in Ilarrisburg, said:
"The trenchery of seme elements op
posing the Fisher candidacy is without
parallel in political history.
"The pcople of Pennsylvania will
never countenauce n candidate bem !n
such iniquity ns the present situation
reeks of, and Jehn S. Fisher will net

Attorney General Alter, by consent
ing te run for the Republican nomina
tion for Governer, is being used by the
hespci ns nn instrument te destroy the
open primaries, Frank M. Ritcr. chair
man of the Voters' League, declared
today.
"It is clear." Mr. Riter said, "that
Mr. Alter in te be made the instrument,
if lie should be elected, of either re
pealing or emasculating the open
primary law and again placing the
bosses in the saddle se they can ride
ever the people, of Pennsylvania."
Mr. Riter also said that "the Beidle
mans, the Snyders nnd the Maclteys
will fnde nwny at the mere order of
political leaders," proving that "Mr.
Mnckcy's overlord Is Sennter Vero."
Jle said Stntc Banking Commissioner

eats and their se-called tax lawyers
and experts In the case of the Income
tax unit.
Mr. Harding is trying te nnd a com
promise, te get rid of the Inefficient, te
satisfy the politicians and nt thn same
lima nnr neatrnv inn pivii service reierni
sytsem nor .yield utterly te spoils. It
Is a. difficult course te steer.
It has brought nbeut a conflict be
tween Secretnry Mellen, who wishes te
run his own department 'free from
political Interference, and Assistant
Secretary Dever will have te go.
Income Tax Werk Slopped
"The row has pretty nenrly stepped
all work In the income tnv section of
the Treasury, n high official said yes
terday. "Since the trouble began net
fifty cents' worth of work haa bcn
done. Everybody Is looking for a job
somewhere clue or trying te line up
friends and influence te keep his present
Jeb." The servlcn Is demoralized. This
is one reason why Mr. Mellen has had
his way and hirs sent te his empleyes
a circular letter saying that no reor
ganization is contemplated.
There are possibilities of a great
scandal ln the collection of income
taxes. It is net certain that it will
be avoided by keeping the present em em
peoyes. They proceed entirely in the
dark, in secret. They change assess
ments. They change the rates under
which thev are made. It seems all
guess work. v
Through the bankruptcy of the Lin
coln Moter Company it came out that
this company had been chnrged with
a $4,500,000 tax which broke It. A
little later the tax was! reduced te
about $500,000. This sort of thing
hnnnens Hnllv nil In nrlvnte. It is
an immense power te put ln the hands
or 50UUO men, wnetner peiuicni ap
pointees or civil service rate appointees.
Naturally there nre grent many forces
which would like te control tne. men
who sny whether n corporation should
pay 84,000.(10(1 texes or only f)W,-
000 taxes.
Hew Trick Was Turned
Seme notion of the background of all
this mnv be cot from a ceillilc of stories.
A corporation president who had assets
thnt. lin wns overtaxed tells this. e
ifitrn nrtviftfwt in put nn nnrl SO th renrC-
nt ns. t liiul n talk with him. 1
thought he was net much of a lawyer
and had mlscivlnss. but I went ever
mlth lit m lin illfl nAt VlflVP te b a laW-
ycr. It turned out all he did wns talk
about what lie was going te de for thnt
particular branch of the service, men
tiening prominent names. After a
friendly chat we went out with our
Income tax reduced."
A mnn who was nt. the Mnrien head
quarters during the cnmpalgn, an Ohie
lawyer and politician, moved en the
4h nf Mnrch Inst venr te Washington
and established himself ns one of the
"close-ups." He did a rushing busi
ness, se erent n business that n few
weeks age he wns requested te lenve
Washington by powerful friends of the
Administration and did se.
A llttle before he left here this man
met en the street another Marien at
tache who has net established himself in
Washington.
Their Stock in Trade
"Helle, Bill," snld the close-up
these are net the true first names
"mnking any money?"
"Ne, Tem, hew about you. nre you
mnklne any.'" asked the ether.

Seeing and being seen is the stock
ln trade of tic close-ups, te be ciiisht
by the mevlen emerging from the Ex
ecutive Mansion is weith thousands, te
be seen dining at a hotel with an im
portant Senater means clients.
All the clde-ups arc interested in the
income tax section. eL have pelitlail
appointees in it. even if tnesc nppelntei s
nre honest and emcicnt, means thou
sands te them. The people who buy
pull de net require proof that it ex
ists. The Issue that has nrlsen if the met
dangerous one that confronts the Hard
ing Administration.
