THE NO-LICENSE LEAGUE
DAUPHIN county has at last
Joined the ranks of communi
ties In which serious efforts aro
being made to prevent the sale
«f Intoxicants. With the organiza
tion of the Dauphin County No-Li
tsense League yesterday the fight was
'"begun. It will be continued, say those
back of the movement—and they em
brace ministers, lawyers, professional
men generally, women of the W. C.
T. U. and laboring men—until the
last saloon door In the county shall
•have been closed.
The No-License League has under
taken a work that will require cour
age, persistence and executive ability
of no mean order. That other leagues
of the kind have been successful has
been due to the predominance of
these qualities in their organizations,
together with an aroused public sen
timent In favor of prohibition.
That the public in general and em
ployers of men in particular are
thinking deeply on the temperance
problem is evident from the wide
spread anti-liquor movement that has
sprung up over the country. The
last Legislature would have needed
very little encouragement to have
passed a local option bill and it will
only be a short time before the States
will be called upon to cast their votes
for a national prohibition amendment.
Big corporations like the Pennsyl
vania railroad and the Hershey
Chocolate Company, in which the
highest state of individual efficiency
Is required, have absolutely forbid
den their employes to drink, under
pain of Instant dismissal. More and
more the economical side of the
drinking habit is being emphasized.
So long as drinking was regarded
only from its moral standpoint, com
paratively little public attention was
paid to It, but since It has been found
to figure largely In the dollars and
fcemta of the earnings of industrial es
tablishments hard-headed business
men have come to the conclusion
fhat they have a very material Inter
net In the restriction of its sale.

CAPITAL
CAPITAL Is a very much abused
word. Say "capital" and we are
apt to conjure up visions of a
Money Trust or the life-time
accumulations of a Standard Oil mag
nate. But for YOU, Mr. Wage Earner,
capital is no such thing. It is your
savings from your daily and your
. weekly wage.
A Pennsylvania girl lias won the
prize that the American Society for
Thrift recently offered for the best
definition of Thrift. "Thrift," she
wrote, "is management of your af
fairs in such a manner that the value
of your possessions is constantly being
Increased."
The girl has come pretty close to
hitting the nail on the head, and In
simple language she has told the se
cret of how to create personal capital.
This would be a discouraging world
for the man compelled to start life
without financial resources if it were
not possible for him to create capital
for himself.
Every man has the glorious privi-
lege of work, and not the least of the
- rewards of labor is the satisfaction of
producing something, and turning part
of one's earnings Into capital.
Don't misunderstand the meaning
of the word capital. It Isn't neces
sarily a big sum acquired at one stroke
of fortune. In most cases it Is the
bis aggregate of little sums, saved by
Blow degrees.
Money begets money, but those

Such persons also seem to overlook
the fact that by hard work and thrift
they themselves can build up the nu
cleus of a fortune and put themselves

is to save systematically a portion of

STATE COLLEGE
DR. EDWIN E. SPARKS, presi
dent of State College, has out
lined an ambitious program for
that Institution, but one that
should have the hearty support of the
people of the State and of the Gover
nor and the Legislature in its enact
ment.
"The biggest college In the United
States" is his aim. Here is the plat
form of his administration:
Not to aspire to the much-abused
title of "University" since the lo
cation precludes professional and
graduate schools; but to aspire to
be the most thorough and, perhaps,
largest "college" in the United
States.
To use every effort to foster
State pride in the college and not
to be content until a permanent
means of income is provided by the
State.
To search for every channel of
usefulness to the people of Penn
sylvania; to benefit in some way
every taxpayer; and to make the
college the vital center of radiation
for information and resulting pro
gress of the Commonwealth,
To continue the policy of uniform
support for all schools and depart
ments of the college, taking into
consideration the number of stu
dents and consequent needs.
To modify and adjust the courses
of study to the shifting demands of
public life and occupation; at the
same time not to lose sight of the
cultural and the higher ideals of
life.
State college Is the only educational
institution of its kind in the Common
wealth justly entitled to aid from the
State government. When the Legis
lature is brought to a full understand
ing of this, with courage enough to act
accordingly, State College will be as
sured of that permanent and adequate
income Dr. Sparks sees as one of the
prime necessities for its development
and growth. Western States are mak
ing much of their colleges and uni
versities. Pennsylvania, with all of
its vast agricultural interests and in
dustries demanding expert engineering
and technical knowledge, should be
able to train her own sons to her
needs.
The fact that more than 200 boys
were turned away from State last
Fall because the college had not ac
commodations for them demonstrates
the necessity of extension. The Legis
lature has the remedy and friends of
the school have it in their power to
bring the matter before the next ses
sion in a way that will win it the
recognition it merits. '
We hate to dissipate false hopes of
an early Spring, but the weather man
believes this is merely the annual
January thaw.
I'ENXSYLVAN IA'S PART
ASIDE from the fact that two
Harrisburgers had a large part
in setting "The Star Spangled
Banner" to music, Pennsylvania
at large, from the very nature of
things, ought to take a deep interest
in the plans of Baltimore to celebrate
during next September the victories
of the American forces that were co
incident with the composition of Key's
famous ballad.
Pennsylvania had a prominent part
in the War of 1812. When the States
of Massachusetts, Rhode Island and j
Connecticut came out in opposition to
the war, the Legislature of Pennsyl
vania rebuked the action of the three
New England governors and resolved
that "The Declaration of War was the
result of solemn deliberation, sound
wisdom and imperious necessity."
Moreover. Pennsylvania supplied
troops the following years.
When the British burned Washing
ton in 1814 and attacked Baltimore on
the route of their campaign toward
the North, troops from Southern
Pennsylvania were hurried to Balti
more and they took a valiant part in
the victories that were won there, the
Battle of North Point and the de
fense of Fort McHenry, events which
turned the tide of battle and led to the
Treaty of Ghent and a hundred years
of peace.
By this time President Wilson must
have awakened to the fact that Colonel
Goethals is himself "some politician."
Anybody that can get a Democratic
appointment without any strings to
It is.
GROWTH OF THE CITY
THAT the growth of the city is
proceeding at a substantial rate
is evident from the report of
the Building Inspector, sub
mitted to Council yesterday.
During the nine months immedi
ately preceding January 1, 1914, the
new buildings erected were valued in
the permits issued at $1,467,040, which
is naturally considerably less than
their actual value on the real estate
market. Nearly 300 brick, frame or
stucco residences were erected during
that time, which means that there are
nearly that number more families re
siding in Harrisburg now than last
year this time.
The suburbs that should' be a part
of the city proper have grown even
more rapidly, which leads to the
thought that If we are to reach the
100,000 mark by the time the new
census Is taken it must be by annexa
tion as well as by natural expansion.

One of the incidents of the Gettys
burg reunion last summer was the call
paid at the home of George D. Thorn,
chief clerk of the State Department,
who is a native of Gettysburg, by Con
federate soldiers who confessed to
having robbed the Thorn yard of bee
hives and honey and the garden of
onions during the battle. Mr. Thorn
spent some of the time close under
the maternal wing during that engage
ment and Is not qualified to give ex
pert testimony as to what really was
taken. Anyway, the story got abroad
last July and was printed in due form
in the Telegraph and also in a paper
in Fairfax county, Virginia. Yester
day Mr. Thorn got a letter from L. R.
Houchens, a member of Company H,
Fifth Virginia Cavalry, who was men
tioned as one of the men who annexed
something liko five hives and the
honey therein. Mr. Houchens wrote
that he was not prepared to stand for
the larceny of five hives, but that he
could plead guilty to being one of five
men who took one of the aforesaid
Ave hives. He also gave the infor
mation that his squad studied some
time between taking the hive or some
guineas which were roosting on a tree
in the Thorn yard and that the hive
won. Victory, however, was dearly
bought. The hive, bees and all, was
thrust into a saek, but the man in
charge let some bees get out and the
whole squad was stung. The only way
they got the honey was to stupefy the
bees with tobacco smoke. Incidentally,
the veteran says that the Beau Brum
niel of the party in attempting to eat
a piece of the comb failed to notice a
bee and that the bee stung him on
the tongue so that he could not talk.
This was all the more painful as soon
after the party met a number of
pretty girls, some of whom proffered
milk and pie, which the lady-killer
was unable to eat or to express appre
ciation over. The Virginia gentleman
informed Mr. Thorn further that he
thought the statute of limitation had
expired on the honey theft and that
he wished to state that as compen
sation he desired to offer the following
thefts from his place by bluecoats
during the war:
One old sow and nine shoats, six
female and three male.
A sack of potatoes.
Ninety chickens, more or less.
One setting hen with full quota of
eggs.
James C. Deininger, Governor Tener's
executive clerk, was the recipient of
an original opinion of the State gov
ernment of Pennsylvania yesterday
afternoon from a young woman whose
garb looked like the Spanish flag and
whose command of language was
notable. During the afternoon a young
woman, attired mostly in orange with
a red and yellow head scarf, appeared
In the Governor's suite and presented
a petition. The petition started in
Chester county and wound up with a
prayer to be allowed to tell fortunes
in Harrisburg. It likewise set forth
that the presenter was a Cherokee,
although as a matter of fact she did
not look the part, but more like a
gypsy. When she was told that she
could not tell fortunes around here
she glared at the executive clerk and
informed him that this is a "low down
government."
The Public Service Commission gets
some odd complaints, or rather some
inquiries which have complaints at
the other end of them. The other
day a man called up and said that he
wanted to enter a complaint against
the Pennsylvania. He asked the clerk
to kindly take it clown from a tele
phone message. When he was in
formed that the commission did not
do business that way. but required all
complaints to be sworn and signed
and witnesses given he snorted. "The
people s don't get any rights." was his
opinion.
The fact that the last Legislature
did not provide very well for the repay
ment of counties which pay bounties
on the scalps of foxes, minks, sharp
shinned hawks and a couple of other
varieties of birds and beasts that are a
nuisance to the farmer has caused ces
sation of demands for payment at the
office of the county commissioners.
When the last Legislature enacted the
bounty act some people got the im
pression that all they had to do was
to hunt and scalp tfre vermin. The
county commissioners had their hands
full to look after some of the more
importunate ones. Finally they be
came convinced and dropped off. The
other day one of the hunters hap
pened to be here for court or some
thing and poked his head in at the
door. They knew what he wanted and
he knew that they knew. This was
his query: "Loosened up yet?" He
took headshakes for an answer and
left.

to Be Much Enlarged
Over 2,800 students, all but 225
residents of Pennsylvania, were re
ported as attending State College in
the annual report of President E. E.
Sparks, submitted to the board of
trustees last evening. The attendance,
he reported, has doubled in four years,

a college developed that will take
front rank. Dr. Sparks said that he
did not favor the university idea.
At the meeting last night nineteen

Coincident with the announcement
that Congressman J. N. Langham, of
Indiana county, would not be a candi

the nomination for the Judgeship In
his county in 1915 comes the state
ment by friends of Representative S.
Taylor North, of Punxsutawney, that
he may enter, the race for Congress.
The district is composed of Jefferson,
Indiana, Clarion and Armstrong coun
ties and the last time Jefferson had
the congressman was when W. O.
Smith, the Punxy editor, filled the
chair.
Mr. North has been a member of
the Legislature for years, sitting in
tho sessions of 1905, 1906, 1907, 1911
and 1913. He was the leader of the
"country members" in the session of
1907 and organized the "country club"
which threatened to make things
stormy for a time. Last session he
was chairman of the appropriations
committee of the House. He is an
active legislator and aroused the ire
of some of the insurgents last session.
Some of Mr. North's friends have been
urging him for the nomination for
Lieutenant-Governor, but he is said
to have said that Congress suits him.
Armstrong county will likely make
a bid for the nomination, as ex-Sen
ator G. W. McNees. who wanted to
run a couple of years ago, is a candi
date.

It is expected that Senator Penrose

by many of the Democrats who would
like to get a fair chance to express
their opinion of the methods by which
the county machine has been run. The

the revenue jobs has made the re

THE STUART SEN TIM EXT
[Philadelphia Bulletin]
Senator Crow, chairman of the Re-j
publican State committee, declares
that "there is a strong sentiment!
throughout the State in favor of the
nomination of ex-Governor Stuart for
Governor at the primary election In
May." This report concurs with nu
merous other opinions that have been
expressed in the interior counties. In
fact since the ex-Governor was defi
nitely proposed for the nomination
there has been no particular uttention
given to anyone else in the field so far
as the expression of sentiment is con
cerned. To the extent in which It has
taken form it means that the Republi
can politicians appreciate the neces-,
sity of playing the very strohgest card I
which they may have in reach for
helping Penrose. In the response
which it has also received from those
Republicans who are chiefly con

There's a talking machine, Democratic,
That's been playing a record of late.
And the song that It sings to the voters
Is entitled "There Isn't a slate."
Its words are most cleverly written.
To convey the Impression to all.
That non-partisan doctrines must gov

And forever "Bosslsm" must fall.
But It's lately cropped out that this
record
Is one of the double-faced style.
And some one unconsciously changed It,
Which the feelings of many did rile.
For when all of the workers assembled
To hear the sweet song once again,
There burst on their ears as they
listened,
The strains of a brand new refrain.
Which ran much like this: "We've de

BATTLE OF THE FLAGS
By GEO. M. PARDOE
Twelfth Pa. Reserve Corps
Ever since the Civil War, Pennsyl
vania's flags,
Shot full of holes and torn with shell—
hanging in rags,
Have stood where placed on Capitol
Hill —standing in ranks
Faithfully guarding good old Susque
hanna's banks.
Thus time passed on. Old soldiers view
ed them there one day,
And talked of Gettysburg before they
went away.
That night, as *Comrade Russel slept,
he heard a crash,
And from a fancied signal gun there
came a flash;
He heard the drums beat the long for
gotten "long roll,"
And "boots and saddle" sounded through
his very soul.
Then forth the flags all marched and
formed in battle line—
The cavalry flags on either flank—
drums beating time.
The hills of Gettysburg then came
within his view—
A cheer went up as the band played
"Red, White and Blue."
The battle at McFherson's farm where
Reynolds fell
Was hot and fierce. where flags fought
flags—a very hell.
The stars and bars were driven from
the Devil's Don;
The cavalry flags drove Stuart far
away, and then
Came Pickett's furious charge of brave
Vlrgina. men;
The flags rose up hurrahed, and hurled
them back again;
The battery flags In action went with
such a roar
That Comrade Russel fell from bed
upon the floor.
The battle ended, but not Comrade
RusSel's fright
As he lay sleeping on that dreadful
July night.
He sought the flag room at an early
hour next day.
There stood the flags, the brave old
flags, as placed away.
" 'Twas but a dream," he said, and as
he turned to go
He seemed to hear a voice which said,
"How can we know?"
These flags have souls, old soldiers
think, the same as men—
Hlse why risk their lives to bring them
home again?
