to observe what is going on in other

who closed the segregated district here

the evangelist:
"I have been keeping in touch with
affairs In Wheeling from time to time
through the daily press and through
friends, but nothing has given me more
,loy than to note your recent action
in cleaning up things over there. It
takes backbone to go after such evils,
but I know you've got the right kind of
stuff in you to do things, and when
once such a campaign is stated, it is
up to the decent people to a city to get
bacw of a man and stand by him. '
"I remember you well, as you stood
at the door near Fred's room. Be
sure and come around where X can
have a handshake and express in per
son my appreciation of what you are
doing.
"With kind regards to all the crowd.
"Cordially yours,
"WILLIAM A. SUNDAY."

REDUCTION OF CITY
TUX RATE IS LIKELY
ID ISIHOIM
City in End Will Gain Largely
Through Extension of
Capitol Park
City Commissioner Bowman holds
out the pleasing prospect of the re
duction of the city tax rate next year.
He believes the rate for 1914 will be
the same as last year.
Incidentally, it is stated that valua
tions of city property will be reduced
to the extent of nearly $200,000 by
the elimination of property in the
Capitol Parle extension district. There
is some difference of opinion on this
point among those who have observed
the course of events since the move
ment of enlarging the State park was
started about two years *go.
It is contended that already one
million dollars has been paid out by
the Commonwealth for the various
properties that have been acquired
and that most of this money has been
reinvested in new plants, improved fac
tory buildings and dwelllnghouses. It
Is also pointed out that under the pol
icy of the Capital Park Extension Com
mission many persons have been per
mitted to occupy their premises after
the State had paid for the same, with
the understanding that all the city,
county and school taxes should be paid
as before, pending the actual removal
of the buildings.
Among some who were discussing
the question to-day, it was contended
that in the end there will be a sub
stantial gain in the valuations through
a better class of business and residen
tial properties; that while the city
seems to have lost in revenue for a
time, it will In the end have gained
not only in the improvement of the
city Itself, but in the actual returns
from Increased valuations.
There haa been general commenda
tion of the commission for Its fair
treatment of property owners In allow
ing them to retain possession of the
buildings for a year or two while they
were relocating their business places
and homes. It Is also stated that the
city has been protected In the taxes
under this arrangement, Inasmuch as
the property owners paid the city,
school and county taxes for a year or
two after the properties had actually
been conveyed to the State.
As an illustration of the Increase in
I values, property Interests formerly lo
cated In the Capitol Park extension
zone are the six-story elevator
and warehouse of the Brandt
Flour and Feed Company in South
Harrlsburg, the fine concrete and steel
factory building of the Moorehead
Knitting Company, In Cameron street
the Harrlsburg Light and Power Com
pany's handsome new plant In Ninth
street, and other Important structures
that have been moved out of the park
district and have added greatly to the
realty valuations.

jMoyer May Direct Strike
of State's Copper Miners
Houghton, Mich., Jan. 9.—Governor
Ferris wound up his personal work
in the copper strike district to-day
I and left for his home.
"I got what I came for," he said.
"This strike cannot be settled in a
week or a fortnight. I think that if it
were left to the miners and employ
f ers themselves that :'t would be settled
very quickly."
Charles H. Moyer, president of the
Western Federation of Miners, prob
ably will decide to-day whether he
will remain here to direct the strike
in the copper country or go to Wash
s ington to petition the executive com
" mittee of the American Federation of
• Labor to call a general strike of min
" ers in Michigan.

Give Your Blood A 603 D
Searching Bath
An astonishing? record of serlou*
blood poisoning; is dally brought to
our attention. And most if not all
these conditions could bo averted were
the blood primed, toned and purified
In advance by that wonderful remedy
known everywhere as S. 8. 8. ?w
people realize how quickly the
becomes infected with the acids and
ferments from undigested food, con
stipation and inactive kidneys.
The symptoms of fever, thirst, ex
citability, dry skin followed by rash,
and rryny indications are often wrong
ly diagnosed as Ptomaine poisoning
Many people who act hastily frotn
violent temper are simply suffering
from the effects of poisoned blood,
produced by faulty elimination. But
by far the greatest peril Is the daily
danger from bruises, contusions, the
scratch of a rusty nail, and vocational
poisoning.
The medicinal properties of S. S. 8. ar® rela
tively jn3t as essential to well balanced health
a« are the nutritive properties of the meats,
grains, fata and sugars of our dally food. And
if you will hear this fact in mind and get youi
blood under tho dominating Influence of S. S. 8.
you will not only drive out those Impurltlei
that cause Rheumatism, Catarrh, Eczema, Plm
plea, Bolls and thin anemic blood, but yon will
feel anew the thrill of health than can com«
only from a purified blood stream.
Do not accept anything else in place ol
8. 8. It. ; pay no attention to the "Just as Oood"
claims of those who would sacrifice your healib
to mako an extra profit. 8. S. S. contains nt
minerals, no crude drug*, nothing but the mosi
beneficial materials. So be sure and get 8. S. 8.
and avoid disappointment. Get a bottle to-dnj
