NOW FOR REAL WORK
WHATEVER may be said for or
against the changes made by
Council in tho municipal work
ing forces, the new governing
"body of the city has at least now
gotten down to a practical working
basis. It lias reorganised the city ser
•vloe along lines laid down by itself
according to its own views of effi
ciency. Its own appointees will take
•their places in every department on
March 1. Councilmen will no longer
And themselves besieged by Job
liunters. That phase of the new gov
ernment was settled finally when they
passed tho Lynch resolution yesterday.
The people of Harrisburg ore much
more deeply interested in how their
lity government is to be administered
than as to who administers it. What
they want is results, and they will
look to the commission to produce
them. The councilmen have all the
opportunity in the world to make such
improvements in the municipal ser
vice as they may deem desirable. They
are bound by no precedents and they
are to a very large degree a law unto
themselves. By their accomplish
ments they must be willing to be
judged, so it behooves them to bestir
themselves in undertaking the serious
work that confronts them.
It is true that considerable has been
done along this line, but the new form
of government is still very much in
its experimental stage, and while a
majority of Harrisburg people ac
cepted it under protest they are atix
lous that it shall be given a fair trial
under the most favorable circum
stances. Harrisburg bore a good repu
tation as a well-governed city under
tho old two-council system and the
cities of the State have their eyes on
us now.
Big tasks loom up before the now
Council. Thcro are streets to pave,
the river bank wall and parking to
complete, the Hardscrabblo problem to
solve, the Paxton creek Improvement
to complete, sewers to be constructed
to the amount of SIOO,OOO, parks and
playgrounds to be extended by the ex
penditure of a similar amount, an
Isle of safety and public comfort sta
tion to be erected in Market Square,
$25 ,000 worth of new fire apparatus to
be purchased and a number of bridges
to be erected. A city planning com
mission Is to be created, the work of
the Health Department extended and
Improved, a new building code adopted
and scores of other things to be done
Incident to the change of government
that will require the careful and con
stant consideration of the commission
ers if they are to be done as tht,
people expect them to be done.
It was natural that there should be
changes in the city's working force
under the new commission form of
government. The councilmen have
settled that question and there should
he no more occasion for bickering oi
controversy over the matter. It has
been settled according to the views ot
a majority of the councilmen and it
should now be forgotten. The time is
here for real action and not a moment
should be lost in taking up the im
portant work of the year.
The Electrical World is discussing
the "possibilities" of a servantless
home. Evidently the printer made an
error. It should have been probabili
ties.
GOOD ROADS; GOOD SCHOOLS
THE United Status Department of
Agriculture is engaged in an
effort to illustrate the relation
between bad roads and poor
schools. In a voluminous report just
issued it Is shown that the rural popu
lation Is more willing to support bet
ter schools to-day than at any pre
vious time. It is being realized that
all educational activities or agencies
must be more or less correlated, and,
more than all else, that they must bo
made accessible to the children.
In many counties where bad roads
prevail, most of the schools are of the
antiquated one-room variety.
are usually located along bad roads
which, during ihc winter, when the
schools arc usually in session. become
BO nearjv impassably a.i t<> make il
difficult for the children tu reach
WEDNESDAY EVENING
them. This condition causes irregu
lar attendance and restricts the edu
cational opportunities of the child.
Not only this, but it often impedes
the economic consolidation of these
smaller schools Into larger, stronger
graded schools, with high school
! courses, directed by a competent prin
cipal arid corps of teachers, according
|to tho Oflice of Public Roads, United
States Department of Agriculture.
On the other hand, in counties
which have improved their roads, tho
(schools are easily reached, the aver
age attendance RTeator, the efficiency
largely increased and economic con
! solidation made possible.
Regular attendance at school means
consistent and regular growth of
both school and pupil, and consolida
tion of schools means a maximum of
efficiency at a minimum of cost.
It is also noteworthy that there is
a marked tendency for the consoli
dated school to become tho social and
intellectual center of the community.
Most modern rural school houses are
so constructed as to serve the com
munity as gathering places l'or various
kinds of public meetings, and whero
vans are used to convey tho children
to school during the day they are
frequently pressed into service to haul
the farmers and their wives to insti
tute work, lectures, or entertainments
at the schoolhouse.
The consolidated school beeomes a
sort of community center where all
educational and social activities con
verge, and in order that it may prop
erly perform that function all of the
highways leading to it should be so
Improved as to render it readily ac
cessible throughout the year.
Oh, come on out, Mr. Groundhog.
We're satisfied. You're vindicated.' We
were only joking about It. Honest we
were.
THE UITERACY TEST
ALL good Americans will approve
the reported intention of Presi
dent Wilson to veto the new
immigration bill if it comes to
him with the literacy test clause at
tached.
In all Washington there Is possibly
no greater or more sincere advocate
of education for the masses than the
President himself. His long identifi
cation with college life would natur
ally lead to the supposition that he
would place educational qualifications
on a very high scale, and doubtless he
does. But evidently tho President is
not quite ready to take the position
that they are all in all; that they off
set good character, a strong body and
a determination to "get there"—quali
ties that a very large number of our
illiterate immigrants unquestionably
possess.
Such a test as those v?ho are back
of the clause in question propose
might bar from our shores the father
of a Lincoln. It would certainly keep
out hundreds upon hundreds who are
looking to this country as the haven
of their hopes, as the one spot in all
tho world where their children may
have the education and the opportuni
ties for advancement which they them
selves have never known.
The United States is not in need of
clerks or bookkeepers from abroad.
We have an overstocked market of
this kind at home. But we do need
sturdy men to till our soil and strong
muscles to take up the manual labor
that our own people decline to do,
and we ought to stand ready to ex
change for these the advantages of our
country to the individual and the edu
cational facilities of our schools to
his children.
It begins to look as though a certain
eminent forester will have to take to
the woods.
CAKE OF HORSES
THE Anti-Cruelty Society of Phil
adelphia has caused to be widely
published a list of "Dont's" for
those who care for or drive
horses during cold weather. Here
they are:
Don't use cold bits in cold
weather. Heat the bit before put
ting it in the horse's mouth.
Don't clip the horse when weather
is at the freezing point.
Don't fail to put a blanket on
your horse when he stands In cold
weather.
Don't force horse to back a heavy
load over a snow bank. A shovel
and a little energy will make it
easy for your horse and your con
science.
Don't try to convince your horse
that he Is on skates when his feet
strike the slippery asphalt.
They apply quite as well to Harris
burg as to Philadelphia. Too often
we forget that dumb animals, like our
selves, are extremely susceptible to
hardships of the weather. The dog is
leftyfo sleep in a cold place or the cat
is allowed to face the snow and gale
of a winter's night, not because we
would have them suffer, but because
we do not think of them at all.
In the case of horses thtre is a pure
ly selfish reason why they should be
cared for to the best of their owner's
ability. If they are cold, or sick, or
beaten, or poorly fed they are Ineffi
cient and the owner loses thereby.
The best cared for horse Is the horse
that will bo able to work longest and
hardest and for which there is always
a ready market at a price no half
famished or ill-cared for beast would
bring.
If this growing use of concrete fences
continues, what will the rail-splitting
candidates of the future do for ma
terial?
"Railroads require large quantities of
sand," says the Electric Railway Jour
nal. In which they differ In no wise
from men.
A NEW BUILDING CODE
BUILDING INSPECTOR GROVE
Is unquestionably right In his
opinion that the building cod«
of the city is In serious need of
| revision.
The rules governing architects and
builders are so voluminous as to be
cumbersome. Their very number mili
tates against their usefulness. They
are so minute in detail HB to be prac
tically impossible lo follow. N T o build
| ins Inspector could bo expected to
master thera in their entirety. The
builder or architect who consulted
tliem in ever} point of construction
&AF.RISBURG cfijiflg TELEGRAPH
would find llttlo time for anything
else. The result has been that Instead
of being- generally obeyed, they have
been generally violated, except possi
bly in their essentials.
There is no reason why a code of
building rules for Harrisburg should
be other than very simple in form.
The building Inspector should be given
wide powers of discretion. The de
signer and contractor should be per
mitted scope in which to work out
their own details, always subject to
the approval of the Inspector.
The underwriters have had a good
deal to say recently concerning fire
and building conditions in Harrisburg.
The National Hoard of Fire Under
writers has devised a code of its own
for cities the size of Harrisburg. In
view of this, might it not be well to
have this set of rules at hand when
the work of revision Is undertaken'.'
evening CPAI
Thomas H. Ilarter, publisher of the
Beliel'onle Keystone Gazette, the lirst
man in Pennsylvania to bring Penn
sylvania Herman into the modern
newspaper's columns and whose Botii
steol letters have furnished delight to
thousands, has condensed his knowl
edge of the vernacular into a paper
recently presented .before the Belle
fonte Study Club. • I-ike every other
man versed in the study of languages,
he calls attention to the confusion in
tho popular mind between the German
and Dutch elements in Pennsylvania
and, remarking that while the excel
lent Germans we know came from the
Palatinate, their dialect came from
northern Germany, says: "Had Luther
translated the Bible into the dialect of
lower (or northecn) Germany, the
Pennsylvania German would have
been classical, or, putting it better,
the dialect of lower Germany, instead
of southern Germany, would have been
tho literary language of the great Gfr
luun-speaking people." The. literature
of tho Pennsylvania German, hence,
has been "scant and altogether local,
confined mostly to newspaper and
periodical publications." Air. 1 Tarter
pays a high tribute to the Pennsyl
vania German in the Keystone State,
to his characteristics and his four
squareness. "Take the Pennsylvania
German out of the history of tho State
a/id you remove Hamlet from the
play," says he . And then following
out this idea he takes the words of
Polonious, one of the greatest char
acters of "Hamlet," and shows how
the Pennsylvania German measures
up. In tho course of his remarks the
Bellefonte editor says: "He has never
proclaimed hiS deeds from the house
tops. and perhaps, until very recently,
has regarded tho record of his ances
tors as not calling for particular men
tion. While the Puritan, the Cavalier,
the Knickerbocker, the Huguenots
and the Scotch-Irish have each had
their praises sung by their writers, the
field is still open for a no less Interest
ing story: that of the "Pennsylvania
German." miscalled the "Pennsylvania
Dutch."
The meetings of Harrisburg's new
City Council, although it has been in
existence for almost three months,
continue to attract popular attention,
far more so than in the days of the
old councils. Jn those times no one
appeared to have much interest in the
doings of the lawmakers except when
some big proposition came up. The
meetings of the new Council, aside
from the political features, attract a
number of people to every session.
Harrisburg people will be interested
to learn that T. Larry Eyre, the Ches
ter county Republican leader and for
mer superintendent of public grounds
and buildings, is going to have a pub
lic sale of all of his properties in tht
vicinity of West Chester, valued at
over SIOO,OOO. The sale will include
Mr. Eyre's handsome home, the Vil
lage Record property, the farm which
has been Mr. Eyre's hobby and its
stock and machinery. No reason is
given for the prospective sale, but
friends of Mr. Eyre say that he is
away from home a good bit and wants
to reduce his holdings.
State Zoologist H. A. Surface ex
pects a unique convention to be held
at the Capitol within the next few
days when tho State bee keepers
gather. He says that the ordinary
person does not have much idea about
the size of the bee industry in the
State and that instead of it being a
side line it is a business in which
farmers have invested thousands of
dollars and they are building up a
trade with the largo cities that is not
to be despised. The zoologist is the
originator of the investigation to show
that stings are good for rheumatism,
and while that has not been heard of
much lately the honey Industry is com
ing to the front.
Memphis, Tenn., the largest city
governed under tho commission sys
tem in the United States, issues an
official magazine every month that is
unique among publications of its kind.
Literally speaking, the paper is the
city's official organ. It is attractively
bound and profusely Illustrated with
cuts of the city commissioners, the
police and fire stations and other pub
lic buildings and views of the parks.
Official city government news that is
of particular interest in municipal
circles is reprinted in tabloid form, re
ports are tabulated and condensed,
and there are some helpful hints and
suggestions as to future operation of
various branches of the city govern
ment.

RYAN IS THUMPING PALMER
Says Sharp Things About the
Veracity of the National
Committee Member
William Flinn, chairman of the ex
ecutive committee of the Washington
party, will not attend the second con
ference of the State committeemen
and county lenders 1o he held here on
February 26 for the purpose of mak
ing a State ticket and there is a possi
bility that a big- light may be made by
the advocates of an open field instead
of an agreement upon any candidates.
The men mentioned for Governor at.
the conference, with the exception of
Congressman M. Clyde Kelly, who has
quit, and posHibly Judge Charles N.
Brumm, of Pottsville, who won't run,
are expected to meet in Philadelphia
within a few days to discuss the sit
uation as they were directed to do by
the resolution of the conference. This
meeting is for elimination purposes
and things will narrow down to three
candidates, Young and Eng
lish. While Young says emphatically
that he never has sjought and will not
seek the nomination, his friends are
■nighty active in the central portion
of the State. English is regarded here
as a compromise candidato in the
event of the rivalry between the parti
sans of Young and Lewis getting 100
hot and he has Fllnn's blessing. Kelly
has been "persuaded" by Fllnn to run
for Congress again.
Flinn is at Palm Beach, where he
plans to stay until March.
Michael J. Ryan, candidate for the
Democratic nomination for Governor
in his own right, as his friends put It,
Intensified the row in the
""lurratic camp yester
day by going to Hjust Uyan I fits

homo community, and Car Fare
making a speech. lie
had the good taste not to
talk politics, but he did some tall
mixing among the Democrats in that
district where Palmer failed to get
across his candidate for judge last
year. Mr. Ryan also challenged Pal
mer's veracity, saying that in spite of
the national committeeman the Demo
cratic textbook of 1912 showed him a
member of the advisory committee,
that his name was used widely and
that he did what he could do to carry
Pennsylvania for Wilson, which Pal
mer, in spite of speeches, failed to do.
Mr. Ryan also said he considered it
improper for the national adminis
tration to butt, into Pennsylvania
Democratic affairs and added: "I con
tributed to the Democratic committee
for the election of Woodrow Wilson
S3OO, but X never collected from a
Democratic national committee, a
Democratic State committee or a
Democratic city committee railroad
fares or telephone bills and if I were j
intrusted with the leadership of my!
party I would not further deplete a
bankrupt State committee by so do
ing."
Miles B. Kitts, who aroused tho ire
of the ringmasters committee of the
Democratic State machine last year
because of his refusal to
to take orders, has an
lvltts in nounced that ho will be
I'lglit in a candidate for renomi-
Kiie City nation to the House from
tho Second Erie district,
comprising a part of the
city of Erie. Kitts says that ho is a
Democrat and proposes to run on a
Democratic platform. He has started
on his campaign and thus far the re
organization gangsters have not put
up anyone against him. The Erie
campaign bids fair to be hot as the
Republicans are united and the
Democrats are split between Ryan
and McCormlck. Ryan's backers have
gotten busy and formed a committee.
Lebanon county people without re
gard to politics appear to be encour
aging the candidacy of Grant W.
Nitrauer, the Lebanon
attorney, for the Leg
islature and he is said Legislators
to be assured of con- in Sight in
slderable support in Old Lebanon
advance of the pri
maries as everyone
concedes that he will be nominated.
Mr. Nitrauer, who is a member of
the Panama Pacific Exposition Com
mission, comes of an old Lebanon
family and is widely known through
out the county by reason of his law
practice and ability. E. E. McCurdy,
former district attorney, who an
nounced himself as a candidate some
time ago, and Dr. X. K. Urich, of Ann
ville, are making a campaign for the
other nomination. The county is en
titled to two members. The Democrats
are up in the air as their strongest
man, Henry C. Snavely, member for
two terms, is ill. The Bull Moosers
have Harvey K. Bomberger, livestock
man; C. A. Bowman, college profes
sor, and F. S. Kaufman, physician, as
their candidates thus far. Kaufman
is a former member and wants to
come back.
