That the moving picture production

The district attorney was reluctant!
to discuss the question, feeling as he I
said, that it is without his iurisdiction
to act. He based his opinion however,
on the character of the advertising
posters and on the action of the New '
Vork courts recently in upholding the 1
police and refusing the theater man
agement an Injunction restraining the
city authorities from suppressing the
reels. The picture that was stopped
by the police of New York was "The

"What, then," the district attorney
was asked, "do you think should be
done in the matter?"
Should Be Suppressed
"I think," he replied, "that it should
be suppressed. This picture," he went

CITIZENS MOBILIZED
IH SOUTH AFRICA TO
PROTECT PROPERTIES
! Striken Hare Tied Up Traffic
in the Transvaal and
Orange State
FEAR UPRISING AMONG MINERS
Infantry, Cavalry and Artillery
Forces Are Ready
For Action
By Associated Prts.r
Cape Town, Union of South Africa, j
Jan. 10. —Drastic measures have been
taken by the government of the Union
of South Africa to prevent serious
trouble arising- out of the strike of
railway men in the Transvaal and
Orange State provinces. The entire
defence forces of South Africa, includ
ing the regulars and the citizens re
serve, are being' mobilized foh the pro
tection of property, which the govern
ment believes to be threatened.
The strikers have tied up railroad I
traffic in the Transvaal and the Orange i
State, but have not yet succeeded in !
interfering with transportation at
Cape Colony and Natal.
The authorities in mobilising the
forces are looking toward a much
greater danger than that of the strike.
They fear a possible uprising of the
thousands of native laborers in the
mines, some of whom have already
shown signs of tinruliness. The na
tives are likely to become still more
intractable when they learn that pro
visions may run short owing to the
impeded communications.
Tn Natal alt the infantry, cavalry
and artillery comprised in the forces
of the Union of South Africa were
Mobilized this morning. The forces
available at Bloemfontein, capital of
i the Orange State, have been sent off
ito Jagersfonteln, whose diamond
I mines rank in value next to those of*
i Kimbcrley. The native laborers there
| had already adopted a threatening at
i Jitude this morning.
| Some further arrests of labor lead
| ers were made this morning, among
them President Connerty and Secre
tary Dawson, of the railway men's ex
ecutive committee, and Buckley and
Riley, members of the executive eom
[ mittee.
Seven Native Laborers
Killed Daring Outbreak
Ry Associated Press
Jagersfontoin, T'nion of South Africa.
Jan. 10.-—Seven native laborers In the
diamond mines were killed and thirty
six wounded in the course of an out- <
break to-day. A few whites also re- |
ceived injuries. The trouble had no |
connection whatever with the strike j
of railway men. it arose in a dispute i
about the death of a Basuto which)
was said to have resulted from the ;
kick of a white overseer.
The whites -were driven by the na- |
tlves to a tunnel of a mine, where I
they defended themselves. In the
meantime the natives destroyed the
hut in their compound.
A body of 500 armed whites then
came onto the scene and dispersed
the natives after a sharp fight.
The town is now under the control
of detachments of armed farrpers
from the surrounding country, who
are supported by a small force of reg
ular troops.

"The Front Steps of Harrisburg "
In the old world cities much attention is given to the permanent im
provement of the streets and parks and the development of the artistic
as well as the practical features of the several municipalities. This is
especially true of Germany.
In city planning as in other things Germany calls In her experts,
just as has been done In Harrisburg. Town planning, according to Fred
erick C. Howe, has become a science, and It is treated as such. A school
lias recently been opened in Berlin devoted to the subject.
The railway stations open into spacious plaaas adorned with flower
beds and fllanked with public buildings which conform to a uniform
style. Most large cities have one or more show places. There Is the
Bruhl terrace in Dresden —"the Balcony of Europe," with its boule
vard prospect far up the River Elbe. The bank of this river at Dresden
is one of the best, examples of river front development In Europe.
It Is now up to Harrisburg to establish once for all a distinctive
public feature which will give the city fame wherever It is known, and
there is no better possibility at the p.resent time than the remarkable
river front wall now In course of construction. This wall is being built
in the form of reinforced concrete steps running from the foot of the
terrace to the low water line of the river, and extending for three
miles along the water front. Why, then, should not this wall become
famous as "THE FRONT STEPS OF HARRISBURG," just as the ter
race at Dresden is famous in the old world as 'The Balcony of Europe?" I

Selling Electricity
By Co-operative
Advertising
The Public Service Corpor
ations In the largo cities are find
ing; It. Is good business to de
velop the co-operative spirit.
Acting as a leader It is the gen
eral rule for the lighting com
pany to get together with the
manufacturers of supplies, the
dealers, and the contractors, and
plan united action.
Each helps the other t to get '
business. For instance, when the
contractor wires a house he at
once makes business for the sell
er of electricity and a customer
for the seller of appliances.
In many cities the electrical in
terests have got together on co
operative newspaper campaigns.
The chief Idea of these Is to
spread the desire for eiectrlcltj»—
by showing how It can be made
to save time or labor or money.
As the uses and the oaera of
electricity Increase there is more
business for all concerned. Be
sides evidencing a coinmendfcble
spirit, these co-operative electri
cal campaigns have been goqd I
business getters. I
Manufacturers and dealera gen- |
erallv might .study them with
profit.

American Newspaper Publishers
Association, World Building, New
York, will be glad to answer any
questions about co-operative
work with dealers In newspaper
