BRY AN AND PEACE
APPARENTLY Secretary Bryan
Intends to have world-wide
•peace even though ha has to
fight the wholo world for It. At
least that seems to be the attitude he
has assumed. Perhaps a more chari
table view of the present unpleasant
situation In which the nation finds
Itself Is that Bryan has been so busy
lecturing on universal peace that he
has allowed an international snarl to
develop without understanding just
what was occurring about him.
At all events he has aroused the
animosity of Japan, England, Ger
many, Russia and nearly every other
power of Importance, and has per
mitted our relations with them to
drift Into channels so turbulent that
not the President has cared to
assume the responsibility alone, and
has invited the Senate committee on
foreign relations to act with him and
his Secretary in pouring oil on the
troubled waters.
Indications are that Bryan has not
sized up to the position of Secretary
of State. He has made one serious
blunder after another, and he has not
one noteworthy achievement to his
credit. It is not to be expected that
the country will be plunged into war
with Japan or any other nation as a
result of his worse,
for wiser heads than his, that have
been called In, will pr/event such an
issue. For the first time In his life
the Commoner has been given a bigger
job than bossing a Democratic na
tional convention or voicing high
sounding theories of government, and
he has not displayed any of the keen
ness or ability of which he gave
promise.
Our foreign relations policy under
the Wilson administration has been
distinctly weak In comparison with
the brilliant accomplishments of im
mediately preceding administrations.
The Chicago man who gave the
weather as an axcuie for frequenting'
saloons at all hours will be giving the
same excuse next summer.
ELECTRIFIED RAILROADS
MANIFESTLY there is opening a
new era 1n the operation and
management of the railroad
systems of the United States.
Recently the government has given a
grant to the Great Kails Power com
pany of Montana to transmit over
public domain power for ihe electri
fication of 460 miles of the Chicago,
Milwaukee and St. Paul road. This is
i Ift line with what has been going on
In Pennsylvania for several years. Al
ways In step with every important de
velopment in the matter of railway
operation and development, the Penn
sylvania Railroad company is pre
paring to utilize water power for the
electrification of many miles of its
lines In this State.
Water power is bound to revolu
tionize the present system of railroad
ing and a great river like the Susque
hanna with its branches is bound to
. . play a very considerable part in this
marvelous change.
Millions of dollars are being ex
pended for fuel for locomotives, the
cost of which, It Is believed, may be
wonderfully reduced through the in
troduction of water power.
The great McCall's Perry dam and
other large dams which are being
constructed in the rivers of Pennsyl
vania will -produce enormous power
and the electricity thus generated is
likely to make possible the readjust
ment in operation made necessary
through the increased labor and other
costs under the present system.
; • It is also pointed out by John D
Ryan, head of the Great Falls com
pany, that the wear and tear upon
v the machinery of an electrically op
erated railroad is so much less than
that of the steam road that the op
erating expenses can be greatly re
duced. He estimates that tho electri
fication of the Chicago, Milwaukee &
St. Paul lines for a distance of 460
miles can be done at an expense of
$8,000,000 and that this amount can
be saved in five years by reducing
1 operating expenses,
i- . One of the interesting features of
the movement is the attitude of the
government toward the public utili
tiea In this innovation. Instead of
attempting to defeat the purpose of
«*-••• ■' , , • . ' .V . .......... v ' • / ■

the railroad companies the disposition
In the Northwest la to aid them un
der proper regulations designed to
protect the interests of the public.
It is probable that the electrifica
tion of the northwestern lines and
the work that has already been done
and Is now under way In Pennsyl
vania will mean rapid development In
the use of electricity for the operation
of railroad systems. If it is possible
to electrically operate, as predicted
by Mr. Ryan, all the railways west of
a line drawn north and south through
the center of Montana and north of
a line drawn from the southern boun
dary of Colorado to the Pacific Coast,
then it should be entirely possible to
operate most of 'the lines In Penn
sylvania by the use of electricity gen
erated by the abundant rivers which
traverse this great State in every sec
tion.
Ryan believes that no less than
10,000 miles of mountain railways in
the western States will be electri
fied in the next few years. It is rea
sonable to expect that hundreds of
miles of railroads In Pennsylvania
will be electrified within the same
period.
It has been previously noted that the
Japs are always more than ordinarily
anxious to gain a naval base in Mexico
about the time our own naval program
comes up in Congress.
MOTHERS' PENSIONS
PHILADELPHIA has been allotted
SI,OOO as its share of the
Mothers' Pension Fund set aside
by the last Legislature.
Dauphin county has not received
one penny.
This is no fault of the State. The
County Commissioners are entirely re
sponsible. It is up to them to take
the necessary action to bring this
county's share of the State money for
the relief of widowed mothers who
need it.
To do so the commissioners must
set aside a like sum for pension pur
poses. If provision for this Item has
not been made in the annual budget
no time should be lost In making the
appropriation.
There can be no excuse for delay.
The Auditor General says he has no
thought of making a test case to
ascertain if the law is constitutional.
It Is good in Its effects and injures
nobody and he is quite content to let
It stand. The county authorities may
well follow his example.
It Is altogether certain that the
mother*' pension plan will in a few
years ba in operation In all of the
States of the Union. It is progressive
legislation of an intelligent sort. In
stead of voting large sums to the
maintaining of private charities the
States propose to appropriate sums
which will permit widowed mothers to
keep their little broods together under
the home roof-tree and amid home
Influences. Surely this is better than
to separate mother and children, es
pecially since the work of charity can
be accomplished as cheaply one way
as another.
The next Legislature will unques
tionably Increase the amount avail
able for this purpose. The question
Is, how long is It going to take Dau
phin county to get into line?
A West Virginia Justice fined a man
for "cussing" his horse, but nobody has
as yet found It in his heart to blame a
man for saying words at a balky auto
mobile.
DR. McCASKEY'S PLAN
DR. DONALD McCASKEY, of
Lancaster county, enthusias
tically recommended the adop
tion of the "split-log drag" as
a remedy for all the road evils of
Pennsylvania in an address before the
members of the State Board of Agri
culture yesterday.
Dr. McCaskey's plan is a very good
one, so far as It goes. No doubt the
"split-log drag" can be used to ex
cellent advantage in the repair and
up-keep of some dirt roads. But he
should not lose sight of the fact that
it affords at best only temporary re
lief. The "drag" con be made to turn
a bad dirt road into a good one —for
the time being, but its value in per
manent roadbuilding is nil.
And It Is in permanent road con
struction that Pennsylvania's Interest
now largely lies. Of course, the State
Highway Department Is putting the
roads under Its control Into as pass
able condition as is possible with tem
porary repairs, but the big problem
that confronts the roadbuilding au
thorities of the State and the public
at large Is the devising of a financial
system that will provide sufficient
funds for road construction on a scale
commensurate with public needs.
Witnesses testified that they tried to
get rid of Judge Bpeer by endorsing
him for a Federal Judgeship in Texas.
Probably had hopes that Huerta would
annex him.
COMPUTING FARM COSTS
WITH 259 pounds of chickens,
or seventy-five bushels of oats,
the latter raised on 2.6 acres
of land, the American farmer
can hire a laborer for a month. This
interesting estimate of the cost of
farm T\'ork appears In a recently Issued
bulletin of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.
Of course the figures are based on
the average wage paid throughout the
nation, which makes one month's
wages of a farm laborer worth 90
dozens of eggs, 101 pounds of butter,
43 bushels of potatoes, 89 bushels of
buckwheat, 2.4 tons of hay or 37 bush
els of wheat.
These quantities vary with the cost
of labor and the prices of commodi
ties In various localities and are not
intended so much as an absolute guide
as to teach "hit-or-miss" farmers how
to estimate farm costs and profits in
an intelligent, businesslike manner.
They are Interesting to the consumer,
however, as throwing a few sidelights
on the high cost of farm products.
Confusion is becoming worse con
founded with regard to the Income tax
law. Such a hod<re-podge of incon
sistencies and impossible provisions has
never been enacted into law by any
Congress in the history of the country.
It is almost unworkable and to impose
upon the people such a statutory mon
strosity Is as unreasonable as it is in
excusable.
i&venine' cbaii
Any doubts people of Harrisburg or
vicinity may have had regarding the
field of activity awaiting the new Har
risburg Public Library will be dis
pelled by to-morrow, when the total
registration, book service and refer
ence of the first month can be ascer
tained. Judging from appearances, the
book circulation will be In the neigh
borhood of 12,000 volumes. This num
ber is far in excess of all expectations
and may be surpassed, but it is a fair
estimate, and indicates very clearly
that the Hilary has a sphere In Har
risburg an<gthat popular interest and
support toi> this newest public insti
tution Is assured. When the library
was being built and, Indeed, about the
time it was opened, people in this city
wer * a HttU dubious as to whether It
would be used extensively in view of
the fact that the State has a mas
nlflcent library here anil that the city
had not especially manifested much
desire. The record of what the library
has done since January 3, and ex
cluding four Sundays. Is the answer.
The registration has gone far beyond
all expectations and the circulation,
especially in the children's depart
ment, has reached such a point that
•f re ser 'ous embarrassment to pro
vide the books. They are being pro
vided as rapidly as possible, but the
youngsters have "taken a shine" to
the library and its books devoted to
children are no sooner in the cases
than they start out again.
Speaking of the library's work among
children. Miss Josephine Meek, who
h«B charge of part of that activity,
was waiting for a car the other even
ing when a "newsie" came up and
said: "Say, I've got to page 161 In
that book." He had recognized Miss
Meek as the librarian who had given
him the book and he wanted to report
progress, \ Miss Meek inquired the
name of the book. "Ther boys ov '61,"
replied the lad. "An, say! didn't that
Monerter soak that Merriinac."
A Harrisburger who has sailed the
Caribbean was chatting yesterday
about the isles in that part of the
world and Incidentally mentioned
revolution-torn Haiti. "I'm reminded
of a couple of stories 1 heard about
that nation from some sailing men,"'
said he. "One story is about a re
view held by the president of the re
public. He was rigged out like a czar
and his army, with almost as many
generals as soldiers, marched by, the
officers with much gold lace and big
swords and the men without shoes
and guns carried any way. The pa
rade went by a group of foreign naval
men and one wag from Germany with
malice aforethought chucked a hand
ful of silver change in front of a squad
that formed the backbone and the ribs
and almost everything else of the in
fantry division. In a flash that army
was on all fours, guns thrown away,
all scramblirg for coin. The next day
a colored gent, in whom he recognized
the gaily dressed admiral of the day
before, sold us some potatoes. I was
also told about the way Haiti officially
gave aid to the earthquake sufferers
of Jamaica and I tell It for what It Is
worth. Haiti voted $20,000 for relief
and the "government" went to hand
it over with ceremony. The officials
were shy on navigation and they
landed up around Nipe Bay, on the
north coast of Cuba, and on their sec
ond dash for Kingston they hauled
up in the harbor of Santiago de Cuba.
They were entertained and also enter
tained in that city, to the depletion of
the cash voted for relief. Finally they
had to make a bold front and sailed
away for Kingston. When they got
there there was so little money left
that they went ashore and spent it
without the formality of any presen
tation of even good wishes. Inciden
tally, they ran their 'navy' on a reef
and it stayed there."
James M. W. Newlin, the Philadel
phia lawyer who died a few days ago,
was the youngest man In the consti
tutional convention of 1873 and is well
remembered by the men who sat in
that body and who attended its ses
sions as spectators. He was of short
stature and once attempted to attract
the attention of the chairman. He
was ignored and when he protested
the chairman declared that he would
not recognize any man who did not
stand to address the chair. Mr. New
lin protested that he was standing and
was told to go Into the aisle so that he
could be seen. "When he was barely
twenty Mr. Newlin was made Deputy
Attorney General and served at the
Capitol as successor to the late B F
Etter in the late sixties. He was well
known in the Auditor General's De
partment.

YOUNG STRENGTH
Will p LEWIS
Believed That Philadelphia Pro
fessor Will Be Favored For
the Nomination
YOUNG UNLIKELY TO RUN
Ryan Announces That His Head
quarters Are Open and That
the Fight Is On
State Treasurer Robert K. Young,
although conceded to have the Inside
track for the Washington party nomi
nation for Governor, is not likely to
be a candidate. The looming up o<
ex-Governor Edwin 0. Stuart ae the
likely Republican nominee, fear of
trouble Inside the progressive party's
State organization if the nomination
goes to the Tioga county man and a
desire on the part of the treasurer to
work out a system In appropriations
for the State are said to be causes
leading to Mr. Young's determination
not to be a candidate.
Stuart and Young were candidates
on the same ticket In 1908 and have
always been olose personal friends;
there Is smouldering discontent in the
Bull Moose State organization over its
domination by Fllnn and Van Valken
burg, who are friendly to Young, and
If he should be a candidate he would
draw the Are of those opposed to the
two leaders and put them into an un
comfortable position, and lastly Young
has for a couple of years been study
ing the State's financial affairs and It
Is one of his hobbies to devise some
appropriation policy. Hiq speeches
and remarks have been all along that
line and it is said by his friends that
he prefers to do that to running for
the uncertain gubernatorial chair.
This being the situation, it Is prob
able that the eastern wing of the
Washington party at least will turn
toward William Draper
Lewis as its candidate
for Governor. It was Lewis NoW
settled at the recent con- In Favor
ference in this city that for Place
Glrford Plnehot should
be the candidate for sen
ator and tentatively agreed by some
of the leaders to boost Judge James
N. Galbreath, of Butler, for Supreme
Court, although the strength of Frazer
and Kunkel was admitted on all sides,
Congressman M. Clyde Kelly's antics
in Washington make him too great a
burden for the party leaders to carry
and Julian Kennedy and H. D. W.
English are not known enough outside
or Allegheny county to appeal to the
rank and file of the Bull Moosers, es
pecially in a year when William Flinn
says the 125,000 militant Washington
party men will bear the expense of
the coming campaign and not his own
long-suffering pocketbook, which was
so feelingly referred to by Editor M.
T. Stokes, of Coudersport, at the Con
ference. The truth of the matter is
that with Flinn reluctant to "unbelt"
and Young thinking how to put the
State on a business basis, the leaders
are pushing forward a candidate
whose brains are expected to make
him attractive.
Every day witnesses the growth of
the sentiment for ex-Governor Edwin
S. Stuart for the Republican nomi
nation, his record as
Governor being eon-
Stuart is stantly referred to, and
Looming Up men from Interior coun-
Over State ties who have been hqro
this week for the nu
merous meetings and
doings at the Capitol are talking of
him as the man of the hour. There Is
mention, more or less individual, or
Speaker George E. Alter, Dr. Martin
Brumbaugh, Health Commissioner'
Samuel G. Dixon, ex-Auditor General
A. ®. Sisson, Lieutenant-Governor
Reynolds and ex-Senator L. A.
Watres as available men, but it seems
to come back. In the conversations of
those who have been here, to a sit
uation wherein a man more directly
In the minds of the people is demand
ed and Stuart is put forward. Senator
Penrose on his visit to Pittsburgh was
impressed with the growth of the
Stuart sentiment and people all over
tlje State are urging that the former
Governor be asked to run.
The prominence of Stuart in the
gossip attending the campaign haa
caused some of the Progressives to
hint about getting to
gether on a State ticket
and there is consider- Democrat*
able talk to that effect In Unhappy
in Philadelphia. The Situation
Democrats are worse
split than ever and thus
far Ambassador Guthrie has shown no
inclination whatever to come home
from Toklo to enter the lists aa the
party candidate for Governor. Palmer
is being annoyed by the friends of
Michael J. Ryan, who are writing him
letters urging him to recognize Ryan's
worth, and has as yet kept the cloth
on his candidate, if ho has picked one.
Ryan opened' his headquarters In
Philadelphia yesterday and In an
active candidate with backers all over
the State.
Herr Moeslein, Democratic county
chairman, is now said by his admirers
to prefer to crown his career in the
service of the reo-bosses
by becoming a member
Moeslein of the State Democratic
for State committee and the boom
Committee for him for member of
the Legislature has been
sent back Into storage.
The genial county chairman has not
had a happy time of It because of the
slating of Vollmer and Hoffman for
the revenue jobs when other Demo
crats who have labored In the heat of
campaigns have been sidetracked or
offered minor places. The candidacy
of Bert Fritchey for State committee
means that the bosses will have a
straight-out fight and they will put
up Moeslein as the goat.
