MONDAY EVENING. FEB. 16
BACK TO THE PARTY
MUCH significance is given
throughout tlio oountry to the
speech or United States Senator
Borah at tho Lincoln dinner in
New York city. As one of tho most
forceful and practical of the Pro
gressives who hus remained inside tho
Republican party to effect the reforms
■which he believes are necessary to its
future usefulness. Senator Borah has
aroused greater interest in the work
of the Republican party during the
last few weeks than any other distin
guished statesman of his day. Perhaps
the most striking sentence of his Now
York speech was this:
"No ono was tliero lat Chi< agoj
seeking honor and place at the hands
of the convention who would not havo
been glad to utilize the party as a
party had tho results been satislac
tory."
No ono will doubt tho truth of this
statement. Had Roosevelt or Had ley
or Cummings or any other qf tho emi
nent Republicans who were discussed
for the Presidency at that time been
nominated by tho convention then in
session there would liavo been no
question raised as to tho fairness or
legality of tho nomination. In short,
the Republican party would not lravo
been divided and the Democracy would
not now be In control of the govern
ment.
Senator Borah pointed out in his
New York address the substantial
achievements of the Republican party
and (he progressive character of the
legislation under Republican adminis
trations. lie also indicated very clearly
that those who persisted in maintain
ing a separate organization under tho
plea that tho Republican party is
decadent aro doing so for no other
purpose than to achieve their own
selfish ambitions. As one of tho men
who stood with Roosevelt at Chicago
Vntil the Colonel bolted the party,
Senator Borah's conclusions will have
unusual weight. Ho was in close
touch with all that transpired ill the
convention of 1912 and his statements
regarding its work must convince
many who have honestly believed that
the'o was something very unfair in
the construction and conduct of that
body. He pointed out that the con
vention was conducted under the same
rules as the conventions of 1904 and
1908, In both of which Colonel Roose
velt was a dominant figur^.
All over the country there Is n
strong undercurrent of common sense
■which is sweeping back Into the Re
publican party those who were carried
away by their admiration for Colonel
Roosevelt in 1912. Practically every
election that has been held in the last
few months shows the back-to-the
party movement everywhere, lit Mary
land, lowa, Kansas, Michigan, Califor
nia—in all sections the rehabilitation
of the party is proceeding along sane
and reasonable lines. There has been
no growth of the Democracy in any
quarter. "Whatever of success has
come to the party now in power has
been through the division of the Re
publican forces.
Those ambitious gentlemen who
imagine that they can destroy the Re
publican party for their own selfish
purposes cannot have studied the
enormous vote given for President Taft
under conditions which were discour
aging from the very outset of tho cam
paign. In short, there is a great body
of Republicans which has not and
cannot be swerved from the standards
of the party.
But there will be no permanent
restoration of the Republican party
unless and until the party leaders
everywhere recognize the mistakes of
the past and turn their faces toward
the new standards and the principles
■which aro inherent in the Republican
faith.
The young man who Is content to kiss
a girl's hand may be gallant, but he's
seldom popular.
SAFETY FIRST
THE employment by the Pennsyl
vania Steel Company of a
"nafcty first.'' engineer and the
promulgation of a I>-j< >k uf nafcty
rules foi employes it only another
step in the nation-wide movement for
the protection of the men who work
MONDAY EVENING,
In what are, under the very best of
circumstances, dangerous conditions.
| But the idea is not new with the
Steel Company. In the early days the
i mill was first, the safety of the
I tor a secondary matter, if it was
I thought about at all. In recent years,
I however, every addition to the plants
I of the big corporation at Steelton has
j been built with the welfare of the op
■ erator in mind. Designers of recent
j enlargements have devoted quite as
| much thought to the man behind the
I machine as to the machine itself.
, This is not only right from a hu
. nAnltarlan standpoint, but it ought to
i pay in dollars and cents. It is only
■ reasonable to believe that a device
that Is constantly menacing the life or
i limb of the employe will be less effec
! tive from a producing standpoint than
; one which offers no perils to the man
in charge. In the flrat instance tho
workman must think more of his own
safety than upon the task he is per
forming, In the second he can give
his whole thought to the work. An
efficiency engineer Is not n'etded to
figure out the answer.
A Unlontown man named Burr is the
possessor of a green bull pup. Add
"bank" to his name and we will under
stand.
SUBSTITUTE FOR INSTITUTE
IN view of the wonderful success of
the short winter courses in agricul
ture at State College, the proposal
of a western State to present spe
cial short courses for teuchers along
the same line ought to be Interesting
to Pennsylvania educators.
!„ "Farming has been benefited by
'short courses;' why not school teach
ing?" Thus argues Dean George F.
James, of the of education
of the University of Minnesota. By
adopting the short-course plan of the
agricultural colleges to the needs of
teachers, Dean James hopes to Im
prove the teaching standards of
his State. On March 23 school super
intendents and principals from all
parts of Minnesota will gather at the
Stato University for a week of special
courses, designed to put them in touch
with the latest developments In edu
cation.
"This seems to be a new- and inter
esting development in higher educa
tion," says Dr. P. P. Claxton, United
States Commissioner of Educutlon, in
discussing their plan. "It would be
worth while for other universities to
investigate its possibilities.''
Minnesota's "Short Course for
Teachers" will offer real university
opportunites so far as these may bo
obtained in tho short space of one
week. Tho corps of instructors will
include Dr. Lightner Wltmer, of the
University of Pennsylvania; Dr. L. D.
Colfman, of tho University of Illinois;
Secretary C. A. Prosser, of the Na
tional Society for the Promotion of In
dustrial Education, and Commissioner
David Snedden, of Massachusetts.
Such a plan for Pennsylvania ought
to prove far more beneficial than the
annual "Institute" of doubtful results.
A new interest is being shown in
verse-writing, says the Outlook.
Which will probably bo sufficient rea
son for editors to requisition the busi
ness ofllce for larger waste-baskets.
DEER IN PENNSYLVANIA
THE always interesting and usually
accurate Toledo Blade in a re
cent editorial comments upon
the disappearance of deer from
tho forests of Pennsylvania, Ohio, In
diana, Illinois and lowa, leaving the
impression that deer are on tho de
crease in this State. Pennsylvania is
also "closed to the American elk," we
are told.
The truth of the matter is that thero
aro at the present time thousands of
deer in Pennsylvania, more than there
were fifteen years ago, and they aro
on the increase. Also, the State is
engaged in repopulating its forests
with elk, several hundred of them
having been brought to this State
from the Jackson Hole country some
yeas ago and liberated. These elk
have taken to their new home sur
prisingly well and are increasing rap-
Idly In numbers. They are wild elk
In every sense of the word, the State
extending to them no other protection
than that of barring gunners from
their pursuit until such time as they
can gain a firm foothold here.
The Blade notes with surprise that
wild deer within recent years have
"come almost to the outskirts of De
troit." Twice in the past five years
the city limits of Harrisburg have been
invaded by wild deer that successfully
eluded all pursuers and made their
way back to the hills, it lias not been
so long, either, since a Rockville man
captured an exhausted doe as it came
out of the river not five miles north
of the city.
Dr. Knut Hjallnor Hainmarursk
jolrl has accepted the task of form
ing: a new Swedish Cabiitet.
Glad Dr. Knut is not now figuring in
the Pennsylvania campaign. Linotype
operators have enough trouble as it is.
Don't mind the fellow who is con
tinually howling that the chances
to-day are not what they were fifty
years ago. That man was here fifty
years ago and will be here fifty
years from now. 1 tell you it Is not
the famous or prominent men in
this world who are the greatest. It
is very often the little nren who do
the big things.
So declared former Governor Edwin
S. Stuart In a speech before the Nor
rlstown high school, Saturday. And
everybody will endorse his statement.
When the record of this old world
shall have been completed it will be
found that the modest, quiet, unassum
ing men and women were the silent
forces for the welfare of humanity.
Little Highsplre has beaten Harris

Trolleymen declared that the snow
of Friday and Saturday Waß the hard
est they have had to light since the
days of tho great blizzard in the early
part of February, 1899. This storm
will be remembered as upsetting
everything In the way of transporta
tion In this section and piling the
streets with about three feet of suow.
It was marked by the same high
winds that characterised the recent
snow and paralyzed outdoor business
tor a full twelve or fourteen hours
after it had ceased to blow. Every
one was occupied in digging out or
being dug out. The storm of a few
days ago, which has left abundant
traces all over the State was marked
by considerable drifting, and that 1b
what made it diflleult for the trolley
men to buck. Cars had to be run
continuously for forfy-eight hours to
keep tho tracks open and often opera
tives had to leave the cars and go out
with shovels to get the tracks cleared
only to have them covered a few min
utes later worse than ever. What
made much trouble as well was the
frosting - of the windows. The moist
ure Inside the cars congealed on the
windows and the inotorinon had to
keep bunches of waste handy so that
their view would not be obscured. And
when they opened ventilators to lower
Li *®niperature inside passengers
kicked. In some instances defective
panes of glass in windows of cars
were broken by the combination of
Jrost and jolting and the repairmen
hud their hands full.
Speaking about trolleymen, it is sin
gular that In spite of the signs painted
on the Hides of the cars warning pas
sengers to have exact tare ready, com
paratively few people make a point of
having tho necessary nickel handy.
On Saturday utght sixteen pooplc sot
on one car at a single stop and every
last one of thorn presented a dime or
a quarter and not one a nickel. Dol
lar bills rain on conductors on Sat
urday nights, and occasionally they
are asked to make change for "a live
dollar bill and even for a yellow
backed X. The company rules do not
require change beyond a certain
amount, but it is up to the operatives
to maintain tho good will of the pub
lic, and a lot of them do it at Incon
venience to themselves. Hut it seems
tough to be digging for change when
half a dozen people are waiting to
board a car and the doors are open.
1' ew people know that Harrisburg
contributed not a little to the found
ing of the great fortune which enabled
Frank M. Woolworth to erect that
$13,000,000 building in New York,
with its record of being the highest
in the world and also of being abso
lutely free of debt. This building rep
resents the last word In skyscrapers
and there is not a dollar against It.
\V oolworth has made all of his money
In less than thirty years and he lias
fifty millions or so. Ho started in
business for himself in Utica, but
where he got Ills real start mx* in
Laneastor. Tho third store was opened
in Tlatrlsburg and now he lius about
i 40 stores.
The Market Square Presbyterian
Sunday school anniversary yesterday
was not allowed to pass by without
grateful remembrance to the splendid
services of Judge S. J. M. jrcCarreli
as superintendent. The Judge is ill
at liis home, but the esteem in which
he is held was shown by printing of
his portrait on the front page of the
program and this note of service:
Forty-three years at the Sun-
Iday school desk is the grand
record of Mr. MeCarrell, the
present superintendent of the
Market Square Sunday school.
Seven years assistant superin
tendent to the beloved James W.
Weir and thirty-six years super
intendent of the senior depart
ment. Forty-three years faithful,
efficient, prayerful service for the
Master in the Sunday school. And
with it, thirty-seven years a rul
ing elder In the Market Square
Church, to which he was ordained
in 1877. Congratulations from
congregation and Sabbath school
go out to Mr. MeCarrell on this
our ninety-eighth anniversary.
A Harrisburg lady on her way to
the South dropped her leather bag on
the floor of the car in which she was
traveling and it was promptly picked
up by an old gentleman who was sit
ting on the chair opposite. She gave
him a comprehensive glance, and said,
"£ thank you very much, Mr. Can
non." He lifted his fedora with the
remark. "Pardon me, have I met vou
in Washington?" "No," said she,
"but I have seen your counterpart so
frequently in newspapers and maga
zines arid became acquainted in that
way." To which the ex-speaker re
plied, "Vou are observing and your
memory is such you should have been
a politician." The lady replied, "I
should have been inasmuch as I come
from a family of them." This was the
beginning of a very pleasant little
chat on the way to Washington and
the Harrisburg lady was quite pleased
that she had been able to recognize
the famous statesman from his cari
catures in the newspapers.

LOOKING FOR AN "ANGEL"
Ryan Denies He Is Mixed Up in
Liquor Business and Will
Speak in Monroe
Dauphin county Washington party
men are trying to figure out which
way the gubernatorial nomination cat
is going to jump, and preference in
regard to Lewis or Young or English
is as hard to extract as dandelions
from a Capitol Hill snowbank. The
Daupbin Bull Moosers suffered con
siderably when William Fllnn an
nounced that the rank and file was
going to finance the campaign this
year aiul intimated that his days as
the cheerful giver were over.
A week ago the local Washington
ians Were all for William Draper
Lewis, but they have evidently heard
something, because soinq of them arc
now asserting that KobeVt K. Young
and 11. D. W. English arc well quall
flold. Young has a lot of friends here,
most of whom turned In • for Lewis
when the recent conference was held
In this city, but they are now on the
back track.
The same situation prevails all over
tho State and between now and the
conference here on the 26th there will
bo some tall fencing. It may even bo
possible that a faction might go into
the conference oposed to the slating
of any candidate for Governor, as re
quired by the resolution adopted here
recently.
City Solicitor Michael J. Ryan, can
didate for the Democratic nomination
for Governor, yesterday Issued a
sweeping denial of
the charge that his
candidacy Is in the Ryau Makes
Interest of the liquor Ilot Itetort
Interests and a de- to Chalfant
nunclation of those
responsible for the
allegation. Ho , links reorganized
witli the attack.
Mr. Ryan's statement reads: "There
has been sent into every newspaper
otflco in Pennsylvania a statement by
Harry M. Chalfant. editor of the
American Is3tie, In which I am held up
as 'the candidate of the liquor inter
ests of Pennsylvania,' and in which it
is declared that the 'liquor interests
have decided to stake their future on
tlio hope of winning a battle' under
my leadership. I would not. lead such
a battle. I denounce the charge as
absolutely destitute of truth, and I
assert that its falsity was known to
tho writer of the attack and to those
who inspired its writing. The news
papers of Philadelphia, on Wednes
day last, reported a meeting of the
day before at the Hellevue-Stratford,
attended not only by tho men who
claim to own absolutely tho Demo-
party in Pennsylvania, but also
by this Harry M. Chalfant. At that
meeting this scheme of attack was
concocted, and its execution is now
In progress. I repeat that so far as it
relates to me it is, in its entirety and
in its details, a wicked and malicious
falsehood. I have no relations —-per-
sonal. professional or political—with
the liquor interests of Philadelphia
or Pennsylvania, and I never did have.
Surely my opponents must bo hard
driven when they are compelled to
resort to such despicable tactics."
A pretty kettle of fish has been
found In Monroe county, the home
of Congressman A. Mitchell Palmer
and the county where
tho candidacy of Vanco
Ryan Will C. MeCormick was
S|>ealt iii endorsed for the Dem-
Old Monroe ocratic nomination for
Governor. Right on
top of the endorse
ment the East Stroudsburg Board of
Trade, composed of some of the big
gest men in the county, invited Pal
mer to speak at its annual dinner and
also invited Michael J. Ryau. Ryan
has accepted the invitation and the
friends of Palmer are tilling tho air
with protests, claiming that it. would
look as though Monroe was not solid
for MeCormick after all. It is ex
pected that within a fortnight a big
meeting will be held at Clearfield, at
which Ryan will be the chief speaker.
This county is one in which the re
organization clique has been unable
to secure anything but noise.
The Philadelphia Press of to-day
says: "Failure of potential Republi

11am C. Sproul, of More Boomed

Indications pointed strongly to the
nomination of ex-Governor Edwin S.
Stuart. But. his known disinclination
to again seek the office, together with
the launching of the Brumbaugh can
didacy, tended to broaden out the field
of possibilities. Senator Sproul is not
disposed to run, though it is believed
he could be prevailed upon to do so.
Four years ago the Delaware Senator
was far more ambitious for guberna
torial honors than he is at present. In
fact, two weeks ago he positively an
nounced that he would not be a candi
date. That declaration was made,
however, at a time when everything
indicated the nomination of Stuart."

"BI.UIC MONDAY''
Hy Wine Dinger.
There aro some folks who scumble on
Monday,
No matter what they have to do.
Or whether tho sun may be shining—
With them Monday always is blue.
Thoy start out to work with a grouch
on,
They spoil the day ere It's begun.
They see nothing good neath the hoav
ans,
From the rise to the set of the «un.
Then others I know, who are different,
On Monday they start to their work
With laughter that urges performance
Of duties that grouches would shirk.
With them there's no difference twlxt
Monday
And the six other days of the week;
They \ro happy and cheerful at all
times.
No matter when to them you speak.
So I looked into matters a wee bit,
The reason I wanted to know.
Why some should be grouchy on Mon
days
While others good spirits should
show.
And I fpund that in nearly all cases.
That those on whose daya there's a

Stick around In their homes all day

REPUBLICAN PARTY'S FI'TUnK
[From the Philadelphia Press.]
It is a bright future that Senator
Borah sees for the party. All of the
signs are favorable. In tho first call
to arms after the defeat, in the State
of Michigan, which in 1912 was car
ried by the Progressive party, thou
sands who had cast Progressive ballots
in tho preceding November returned to
tho fold and the State was won by
the Republicans. The same thing hap
pened in Maine, in the Congressional
elections. Last Fall in Now Jersey
nearly 100,000 who had voted the third
ticket returned to their old party al
legiance. In Maryland, at the same time
60,000 out Of 57,000 left the Progres
sive party. The recent registration In
several States discloses the same home
ward bound march.
In Senator Borah's mind there is no
doubt as to what this signifies. It
moans that even the men who voted
agaiifst the Republican ticket because
of what they conceived to be a mistake
or a wrong, are too wise to abandon
permanently tho name, the traditions,
thp prestige and honor that thev and
their forbears have established and
built up through fifty years of relent
less political warfare. It means that
such voters are convinced that the Re
publican party is to be the militant real
progressive force of tho future.

I love to sit by the embers
As they sparkle, and fade, and creep.
While Twilight gathers her children
And tucka them away to sleep
When the noises of Day are softened
To a soothing, mellow croon,
Ere the reign of the Night is ushered
By her herald, the weird-faced moon.
There's a magio balm In the gloaming
For the day-racked weary brain
And my care-freed fancy wanders
In the paths afar from pain.
•
The visions and dream of boyhood
Pass before me clear and bright.
In the changing coals and ashes,
As twilight fades into night.
The pillar of Are before me
Takes a deeper and stronger glow;
Calling me onward and upward
As It did In the long ago;
And I know that my heart grows
younger.
That my soul climbs nearer the
Truth.
