TELEGRAPH TRAVELOGUES
THERE can be no question as to
the educational value of the
moving picture. They bring to
the largo majority of us whose
of travel must be necessarily
•mall glimpses of scenes, llfo and
•venta in far-away climes that other-
Vise would have to remain as closed
hooks to us. To be sure, the inven
tion has been misused. But it is not
tho fault of the moving picture Itself
that it haa been made to serve evil
purposes.
Greedy film producers have held
that they must produce "thrillers" In
®rder to attract the crowds—Just ns
years agono the theatrical managers
told us the blood-curdling melodrama
■was necessary to get people into their
playhouses. Yot the day of the melo
drama haa passed and tho theaters are
Btlll operating on a profit-making
basis. So It will bo with the Wild West
and Nick Carter forms of moving pic
ture entertainments.
Tho Telegraph believes that the
public Is ready for a change. It be
lieves that Ilarrisburgers will attend
moving picture shows that have edu
cational as well as entertaining quali
ties. To that end it is ready to pay
the expenses of making a test. Next
week it will bring to Harrlsburg the
noted Niblo talks and moving pictures
of distant lands. Without question
this is the most extensive, expensive,
rare and remarkable collection of
strictly up-to-date travelogues and
moving pictures ever presented.
Chestnut Street Hall has been en
gaged for the week. Every afternoon
and evening performances will be
given. The regular admission fee is
25 cents and tho entertainment Is
(sufficient to occupy a full evening. To
bring the price down to something like
the sum usually charged for admis
sion to moving picture theaters the
Telegraph has arranged that by pre
•entlng a coupon clipped from this
newspaper and 10 cents additional tho
price of a ticket will be reduced
15 cents. In other words, the coupon
end a dime will be received as full
admission fee.
The Telegraph is not attempting to
rompete with the moving picture the
aters. It Is Amply trying to demon
strate what It has long contended—
that the public Is not clamoring for
blood and thunder in Its "movies,"
that it is ready and anxious to patron
ize places presenting such films as are
herewith described.
What will tho answer be? It Is up
to the readers of this newspaper.
GOOD WORK OX Tin; STREETS
THE snowfall of the past week
the heaviest in many years—has
been admirably handled by Com
missioner Lynch. Tho task that
ronfronted him was gigantic, but ho
■went at it in a manner that brought
•words of praise from everybody who
observed the well-organized force of
men and carts that has been digging
tho city out of the drifts that were left
■when the clouds swept by and th<*
■winds ceased to pile up the accumu
lation of whiteness.
Mr. Lynch has long been noted for
his ability as a street cleaner. Under
his previous administration Harrlsburg
attained a fair reputation for tho spot
less condition in which its highways
were kept. He has demonstrated that
he Is the man for the Job and that ho
has lost none of his cunning in the
few years that intervened oetween his
occupancy of the office ns Highway
Commissioner and now as City Coun
cilman.
e.
MEXICO
EVERY indication points to the
ultimate intervention of the
United States in Mexico. The
outrages against foreigners that
have culminated in the shooting of a
prominent Englishman and tho hang
ing of a well-known American rancher
cannot be tolerated. Neither the Fed
erals nor the Revolutionists have any
regard for human life. Both Huerta
4ind Villa display what may be cither
c ontempt for American arms or a de
liberate attempt to compel the sending
of American soldiers lntn Mexico. II
Is difficult lo decide which, in view of
the meager information concerning
the relations between the strife-ridden
THURSDAY EVENING,
republic and the United States that
tire permitted to leak out of the White
House.
The Wilson administration has
proved Itself pitifully weak in dealing:
with this situation. It has not meas
ured up to either American or foreign
expectations. It has failed to find any'
way out of the dilemma. Its policy of
"watchful waiting" means little more
than procrastination waiting and
Watching because those who should
j know do not know. Before the final
j step is taken —before the state of war
that would necessarily follow the
crossing of the Rio Grande by our
troops—it might be well to permit
the Senate to take a hand. The dis
cussion of the situation by Secretary
Bryan with the Senate committee on
foreign relations is a step in the right
direction. ,
Nobody wants to see the nation
shoulder a big war debt or engage
unnecessarily in warfare, but if inter
vention must come it may as well be
before countless Jives of innocent and
unoffending persons have been sacri
ficed.
NAV IGABLE SUSQI EIIANXA
MANY will no doubt smile Indul
gently over Congressman
Moore's expressed belief that
the Susquehanna will be 0110
day a navigable stream. Congressman
Moore Is so much impressed with the
idea that ho has askod Congress to
revoke the War Department ruling
recognizing the stream as open to com
merce only as far north as the Mary
land line.
So many attempts have been made
jto devise a way of making the Sus
quehanna river a navigable stream and
so many difficulties stand in the way
that it is little wonder that those who
know most about the subject are In
clined to be doubtful. It must not be
forgotten, however, that Mr. Moore
has made a deeper study of inland
waterways than almost any other man
who has ever sat In Congress. He is
acquainted with all the conditions of
which he speaks. He has personally
gone from one end of the Susquehanna
to the other and he has the reports of
waterway experts who have acted as
his advisers. He knows the obstacles
that stand In the way and he is never
theless of the opinion that some day
the river will be open to the commerce
of the world.
With the opening of the Panama
canal we are ready. to«bolieve almost
anything in the way of proposed en
gineering undertakings upon which
men who should know set the stamp
of their approval. It is entirely pos
sible that a series of dams and locks
could be devised that would permit
the bringing of the ocean liners, or at
least large coasting vessels, up the
Susquehanna as far as Harrisburg. It
is reasonable to suppose that, the feat J
being possible, It will be accomplish
ed whenever the need shall bo deemed
sufficient to warrant the tremendously
heavy expenditure that would be en
tailed.
IMMIGRATION TESTS
THE Telegraph has received an
unsigned communication evi
dently from the pen ol' a farmer
—upholding the literacy lest for
immigrants, against the adoption of
which by Congress this and many other
right-thinking newspapers have pro
tested. In part it is as follows:
There can be no excuse for over
loading our country with ignorant
foreigners. You do wrong to try
to help open our gates to them.
What good are they to the farmer,
for instance? Do we get any bene
fit from them? Do they go to the
farm to work, where men are
needed? Tell me that.
Our correspondent is mistaken in
believing that no immigrants go to
the farms. Government statistics
show that thousands of them do, and
that many such are now operating In
dependently and accumulating wealth.
And Isn't it very much the farmer's
own fault that more of the newcom
ers do not go to the soil? What sort
of organized effort does the Pennsyl
vania farmer, for instance, make to
obtain immigrant labor to take up the
work that he cannot find native-born
men to perform?
But there is another side to the
matter, and a very practical one, too.
Discussing it the New York American,
a Democratic newspaper that has lit
tle sympathy with the Underwood
tariff slashing, says:
.Tust lately this country has done
about all that it could to injure
the farmer with so-called "tariff
reform." Whatever the farmer
produces now comes without any
taxation. Cattle from Mexico como
across the border without any tax.
farm products from Canada and
from all over the world—and our
wise Government did not even tako
the trouble to demand reciprocity
for our farmers.
With the European. Canadian,
Argentine, Mexican and all other
farms 1 competing with our own, and
with no tariff to protect our farm
ers—the men who pay high duties
on what they want—what is to be
come of the farms?
Would it not be a good idea, at
least, to permit the immigrants to
come in to eat the things that the
farms produce?
A hundred thousand immigrants
eat a good many bushels of pota
toes, a good many pounds of pork
and beef.
If the farms of this country have
been growing, if the wealth pro
duced from the soil has so far ex
ceeded all other wealth—lt Is be
cause we have had here people able
and willing to buy that farm pro
duce and eat it up.
Farmers might Interest them
selves In this Immigration proposi
tion, for what they need is popula
tion, men that work hard through
the day, eat heartily at night and
make farming worth while by buy
ing farm products.
The farmers of Pennsylvania are
not so far removed from the days of
their own immigration that they have
been able to get rid of tho language
of the fatherland their own forebears
left for the greater opportunities of
the new world. As a whole, they are
by no means In a position to condemn
the ambitious European of to-day to
forego the chance for advancement
offered In this country and we do not
believe that many of thorn are so
soltish or so ignorant as to do so.
AN EVENING THOUGHT

Hut wo hae meat and we can eat,

-—Burns.
evening chAT
The conference of the adherents of
the Washington party here yesterday
is likely to be the last of the political
meetings here until after the pri
maries In May and It seems rather
strange not to have State conventions'
In a gubernatorial year and to have
meetings of committees instead of the
old-time, picturesque gatherings of
leaders and men who want to lead.
Under the direct primary law the con
ventions were made a thing, of the
past and it was contemplated that
such things as siatos should be for
gott< n along with the conventions. But
political methods do not change with
laws and some of the advocates of the
change are rather busy nullifying its
provisions Tho next meetings of any
Domical atanlflt .aice will be held here
the primary law the
conij-ol of Stat ■ committees was taken
out of tho handj of parties and placed
under tho 'aw Just as the primaries
were yenio years ago taken from con

committees, prescribes when the-, -.hall

When tho committers meet after the
primary if will be for organisation and
tne auoptibn of declarations of prin
ciples. Tho successful candidates will
be summoned to address the commit
teemen and when it is all over the
resemblance to a convention will be
marked.

? r ; "J"hnson hfis written for the'
' iiihidelphia Evening Bulletin an
article on political conditions in 1882,
recalled to his mind by the death of
General Beaver In the course of which
he writes of people well known to
Harrisburgers. He says in part: "Re
gardmg some of the personnel of some
™ working forces In the campaign,
David Martin was a member of the
Republican State committee; and Ed
gar Plnchot represented Pike county.
I thin ; the present Mr. Pinchot claims
to hail from Pike county. Perhaps the
county committeeman of 1882 was
the father of the gentleman who now
wishes to appear in the United States
senatorial toga, and Senator Penrose
may need to revise his assertion that
brother Pinchot did not know Penn
sylvania was on the map six months
ago. In that same year Daniel H.
Hastings was chairman of the Center
county Republican committee. A. S
_ \hi®lds represented Philadelphia,
and \\illia>m U. Hensel was chairman
of the Democratic State committee.
James Gay Gordon was elected sena
tor from the Third Philadelphia dls-
TA,* . an( ' U1 Reyburn. from the
I'ifth; and Senator Lewis B. Emery,
who many years afterward made the
battle for governor and against Edwin
"tnart, was elected as a regular Re
publican from the Twenty-first dis
trict. comprising the counties of
Tioga, Potter and McKean. John W.
Morrison, who is now deputy banking
commissioner, and is at present a resi
dent of Delaware county, was that
year elected to the State House of
Representatives from tho Fifth Alle
gheny district Among the indepen
dent Republican candidates for the
Legislature was A. Lewis Smith, the
venerable and distinguished lawyer,
who resides in Media, and still prac
tices law, with offices in Philadelphia.
More refnarkabic, however, is it that
Samuel W. Pennypacker ran for the
Legislature ns tile Independent Re
publican candidate against, the regular
Republican candidate In the Twenty
eighth Philadelphia district."

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
LEWIS WILL LEAD
THE BULL MOOSERS
Selected to Be Nominee For Gov
ernor at Secret Conference
in Gty Hotel
McCORMICK GETS BUMPED
Philadelphia's Big Democratic Club
Fails to Endorse Him For
Governor
i It looks as though a compromise
I waa reached last night between the
! Flinn and Van \ r al ken burg factions
jof tho Washington party. William
>Draper Lewis, the scholarly West
| Phlladelplilan who has been much In
! tho public eye since tho Roosevelt
| movement began, wan selected as can
didate for Governor. He got 21 votes
to 17 for State Treasurer Robert 'K.
Young. Young is close to VanValken
burg and probably coitld have been
nominated If he had gone out after
tho prize and taken the chances of a
factional fight. Flinn backed H. D. W.
English lip to the last week and went
away, leaving English so high and dry
that ho did not think It worth while
to come here.
The Bull Moosers picked a slato in
tho fashion approved by President
j Wilson, only, for the sake of appear
ances, they had more people present
than at the recent Democratic White
House primaries. Fifty members of
various committees met behind closed
doors in the Commonwealth Hotel and
with much oratory "invited" various
men to become candidates. It was all
very amusing because when the last
conference was broken up in a snarl
the men suggested for Governor were
told to meet and eliminate, reporting
one man. Yesterday the aforesaid
suggested ones reported back, asking
the conference to do it. Then the
conference did. In addition to the
votes for Lewis and Young, English,
Wllhelrn and Cauflfiel got a few. Some
one wanted to have a second ballot
because some late members arrived,
but it was defeated 24 to 22.
The ticket as slated by the Wash
ingtonlans is as follows: Governor,
Dean Lewis, of the law school of the
University of Penn
sylvania; Lieuten
ant-Governor, Percy Slate Made
F. Smith, jury com- l T p For the
missioner of Alle- May Primary
ntiiy county and
old - time reformer;
Secretary of Internal Affairs, Con
gressman Fred E. Lewis, Allentown,
switched from Congress-at-large, and
l'or Congress-at-large, In addition to
Rupley and Walters, bidden to be
candidates again some time ago. Rep
resentative C. F. Swift. Beavef, a
member of the Anti-Saloon League
staff, and Lex N. Mitchell, the Punx
stawney lawyer. Pinchot was invited
sonic time ago and is about ready
with his declaration.
Dr. J. H. Krelder yesterday di
vorced himself from the county chair
manship of tho Washington party in
this county, but con
tinued to hold fast to
Kreider to his lucrative job in the
Hold to u Auditor General's De-
Capitol Job partmcnt and to his
ambitions and hopes
to be nominee for Con
gress. The Doc was the only one of
ull the valiant Bull Moosers In this
county to grab oft' a nice place when
places were to be given out. and when
he also wanted to run for Congress it
was suggested that he let go of some
thing. Charles H. Landls, who has
been on the hopeful list for some
years, will likely succeed the canny
doctor as chairman. The Doc'a papers
for Cohgress are to be on exhibition
soon.
The sorrows of the Democratic
bosses are multiplying and the man
ner in which organizations through
out the State are re
fusing to play the
selfish game of the Philadelphia
Palmer - McCormlck Club Refuses
faction, is one of the Endorsements
most striking things
that have occurred
since the Jersey slate was made for
Pennsylvania at the White House. The
Democratic Club of Philadelphia,
heretofore bossed by the reorganiza
tion chiefs, last night actually declined
to endorse McCormlck a# a candidate
for Governor. This is the club which
has been held up by reorganlzers as
the greatest organization of its kind
in the State. The West End Demo
cratic Club of this city has thrown
into the waste basket a similar resolu
tion, and efforts to have representa
tive Democratic clubs in Pittsburgh,
Scranton and elsewhere go on record
in favor of McCormlck have been
knocked higher than a kite on the
ground that clubs should not take
such action in advance of primaries.
The Central Democratic Club stands
almost alone in endorsing the fac
tional candidate before the primaries.
Tho election of a Republican to
succeed Enos M. Jones as Senator
from the 1-luntingdon-Blair district is
said to be assured by
prominent residents of
Huntingdon that district because
Democrats of the bitter factional
Are Wary fight which has broken
out among the Demo
crats. Efforts have
been made to heal it, but the follow
ers of Ryan and McCormlck are at
daggers' points, and the state of mind
of Democratic workers in Huntingdon
county was Indicated yesterday when
a meeting of men friendly to the Mc-
Cormlck candidacy held at Hunting
don failed to adopt a resolution en
dorsing the llarrisburg man. The
best that could be done was to en
dorse H. J. McAleer for the Demo
cratic nomination for Senator, which
will have the effect of irritating a lot
of Blair county Democrats. The Re
publicans will nominate either George
C. Irwin or Samuel Stoner and elect
him to the Senate.

WHERE ARE THEYf
By Wins Dinger
Since 010 Bre'r Groundhog came out,
and
His shadder he saw on <tho ground.
There's one set of people been miss
ing—
These days you ne'er see them
around.
They're the folks who i>trulled about
town
Last December and put up a howl
'Bout the weather because 'twas so
balmy,
Upon which they all looked with a
scowl. *
"Why can't we have winters," they
queried,
"The klncf that we had long ago,
With ice In the streams and the land
scape
All covered with beautiful snow?"
"This weather is bad for one's system,
It ought to be cold," they would say,
"With the mercury down below zero,
As it was back in our younger day."
Where are they, these cold weather
fiends,
Who wanted some real winter stuff?
Hugging stoves, I'll just venture to
wager,
Since Boreas, ot al. called their bluff.

"Their Second Flight," by Louise
Winter, opening novelette in March
Young's Magazine, is an absorbing
story of a man who contracts a second
marriage with a little grass widow of
whom ho Is passively fond, but whom
he regards as more or less of a top.
Gertrude or "Trudel," as he calls her in
accord with her Gerniun coloring, is a
swoot, somewhat simple little woman
endowed with the Teutonic \;irtuo of
domesticity. She has lost her first hus
band through the fascination of a bold
stage beauty and with this second la
confronted by ti similar problem her
rival, this time, being a keenly Intelli
gent society woman. Gertrude is intro
duced into her husband's set but is
only tolerated by them for his sake.
Gault, a friend of Trevors' Is kind to
her, and when an estrangement comes
between the two, he endeavors to guide
them back into the channel of under
standing. Trevors' son by his first
wife is injured in an accident and this
draws the man Into close communion
with the mothur of his boy. Gertrude,
left to enervating doubts, resolves to
go away and leave her husband free.
One of her friends of the old days, a
physician's wife, guesses at the cause
of her restlessness and when Trevors
roturns Gertrude reveals to him a
mighty bond—a bond that has tho
power to weld their union securely.
"The Queen of Harmonj'," by Winona
Godfrey, is a tale of primitive people.
It tells the story of a man whose wife
deserted him In a moment of anger,
taking their child. Later he meets a
girl who fills his heart completely, but
before their marriage she is led by the
child to her lover's wife. Through this
girl's nobility a reconciliation is effect
ed between the couple.
"The Yellow Door." by Eugene A.
Clansy, depicts the struggle of a drlnlc
tortured soul to assert its better self.
The climax is tense, terrible, but full of
vital interest.
In "The Woman In the Park," Jean
Carmichael gives a delightful whim
sical portrayal of everyday characters.
