GOOD ROADS CLUB
AOOOD roads club has boon
formed In Perry county with
Ngwport as Its headquarters. It
•tarts with thirty-five members
.tindar the title of the Juniata Valley
Good Roads Association and not only
but Juniata county people will
bo eligible for membership. Its gole
purpose Ig the onoouragement of good
roads and the formation of a program
that Will glva tho next Legislature
something definite upon which to base
Its good roads discussions.
Thg organisation Is only ong of many
suoh springing up all over Pennsylva
nia. Apparently the voters are be
ginning to realise that they were led
Into making a serious blunder when
they voted against the road loan last
Fall, or at least are Interested In flnd
lng soma way out of the unfortunate
condition the defeat of the good roadß
proposition has left them.
The Pennsylvania Good Roads As
sociation is back of the movement
that la rapidly swinging the counties
Into line and It will not be many weeks
before the whole State will stand
solidly behind a petition to the next
£tate Legislature to provide funds
sufficient to carry forward the work
of road Improvement on a liberal and
comprehensive sca'e.
There may be no such thing as the
Wild March hare, but surely most folk»
have found a hair in the weather thla
month.
TOO EARLY TO Jl'T'E
THE first anniversary of >.he inau
guration of President Wilson has
given his admirers occasion for
most uproariously Jubilating
ovgr what they regard as the splendid
aohlovementg of the Democratic ad
ministration of national affairs.
Without desire to minimize any
good thing the President has done or
any reform that lie has accomplished,
ig it asking too much to be permitted
to withhold Judgment until the lapse
of time shall give us a better perspec
tive Of happenings at Washington and
until the results of legislation enacted
during the past year shall have be
come apparent? There is an old ad
ftft that he who laughs last laughs
beat, and a Republican smile or two
marmot be so much a matter of the
dim and distant future us some of our
Democratic friends seem to Imagine.
In the first place, nobody can as yet
foresee the full effects of the Under
wood tariff act. That business has
suffered under It is apparent, but
■whether or not It will be permanently
injured remains to be seen. There are
Indications that in this respect the low
tariff will not be the unlimited bless
ing that its sponsors declare It will be.
At all events, If it has not injured u*
much, neither has It brought about the
■barp and immediate reduction of
prices that the President and his
friends claimed for it when they were
making their election promises. Hav
ing failed In this respect, where do we
a* a people benefit thereby and why
all this rejoicing over the lowering of
the tariff wall?
The Income tax law is a masterpiece
of confusion. If It had been designed
to render Its operation difficult and
make possible all manner of court ap
peals as to legality, the Job could not
have been done better. Whether or
not it will provide the government
with the revenues necessary for con
duct of its rapidly increasing expendi
tures or leave the national treasury to
face a deficit remains to be seen. It
la too early to judge.
The new bank law seems to be all
right In the main and will doubtless
work out to the benefit of national
banking conditions, but It must not be
forgotten that this bill Is not entirely
a Democratic measure, and that had
It been passed in the form originally
Intended the efTects would have been
quite as bad as they now appear to be
good.
There Is Just one activity of the
President that has not been touched
I upon by his newspaper admirers. They (
|l|ave had nothing to say concerning
IMlltlcal activities. In this line he has
fegen as eminently successful as any
partisan boss ever was. He has "reno
tated" the Democratic household In
FRIDAY EVENING, HARRJSBURO TELEGRAPH MARCH 6,1914.
New York State and has personally
picked the candidates whom he would
i like to see United States senator and
I governor in Pennsylvania. No Presi
dent has been more successful In dic
tating State politics than President
Wilson, but even here the final results
are not apparent and there are many
who entertain the suspicion that per
haps they will not be entirely pleas
• Ing to the resident of the White House.
1 Meanwhile the armies of the unem
ployed grow dally and new orders for
manufactured goods are pitifully
|' small. The President's friends would
do well to pause in their rejoicing un
-1 til the final accounts shall have been
l entered and the ledger balanced at
the close of a four-year term. Twelve
months constitute a rather brief period
i in which to judge the ultimate suc
cess or failure of an administration as
yet in its infancy.
If the suffragists do not want the
Chief Executive of this fair land to be
so "sick" again that he will have to
stay in his own room, they had better
not send any more delegations to sco
him while he is President.
THE CURFEW MEASURE
DUE to the activity of the Civlo
Club a "curfew" ordinance pro
viding that children under si*-,
teen years be off the streets at j
night will soon be introduced in Coun
cil.
Tiie City Commissioners will be
shown statistics and reports by the
Civic Club's committee to prove the
good effects laws of this kind have had
in other cities of the State. Mrs. A. L.
Martin, chairman of the committee,
will produce evidence that a curfew
law has been strictly enforced In
Wilkes-Barre for nearly fifteen years
with beneficial results, and this with
out the addition of a single policeman
to the force of that city. Other sta
tistics to be presented to the commis
sioners for their cinsideration will show
that most of the juvenile crime
brought to the attention of the courts
is committed at the time of night
when youngsters should be In bed.
■ Council already has passed an ordi
nance forbidding unaccompanied chil
dren In places of amusement after 8
o'clock. This ordinance becomes a law
to-morrow. Now the commissioners
will be asked to go a step farther and
forbid the boys and girls of the city
to "run the streets" after dark, and
the matter Is of such Importance that
councilmen should give it full atten
tion and consider the ordinance in all
Its aspects and effects before • acting
upon It. On Its face It looks like a
good thing, but there may be excep
tions here and there, and at all events
It must be fully understood that once
adopted the regulations must be strict
ly enforced, or conditions will be worse
than at present
Down Camden way It was reported
to-day that a "Journalist" was over
come by gas. Impossible! !
SAVING THE SUSQUEHANNA
BOTH the Wilkes-Barre Times-
Leader and Scranton Tribune-
Republican discuss very Lerlous
ly Congressman Moore's recent
speech In Congress In behalf of a
navigable Susquehanna river. They
put it on a purely economical basis
and attempt to show that not only Is
the Improvement feasible but that
millions of dollars would be saved
yearly to Central Pennsylvania by
opening the river to shipping as far
north as Wilkes-Barre.
The Times-Leader quotes authori
ties to prove that "$35,000,000 a year
in transportation of anthracite coal
would be saved if the river could be
made navigable" from that city to the
Chesapeake Bay. The writer ex
presses the belief that the numerous
plans for deepening the stream that
have marked the .years have been
blocked by lobbies at Washington
whose interests lie In preventing the
use of the river for navigation on a
large scale.
It is unquestionably true that if
the Susquehinna could be opened even
to boats of only medium size as far
north as Wilkes-Barre, and the old
North Branch canal reopened between
that city and Sayre, hundreds of thou
sands of tons of coal that are now
transported to the seacoast by rail
would be brought down the river in
boats, at a great saving of transpor
tation charges.
The Tribune-Republican, which lias
not the same dollar and Cent Interest
in the project as has the Wilkes-Barre
newspaper, nevertheless expresses the
belief that in any event something
ought to be done to rescue the beauti
ful stream, which, from Pittston down,
has become practically a sewer, and
State pride, if nothing else, should be
Interested in saving the Susquehanna.
Thank goodness, it will soon be six
weeks since February 2.
THE M'CUAIG LECTURES
THE McCuaig lectures, which came
to a close on Wednesday even
ing. have unquestionably made a
deep Impression In Harrisburg.
Coming immediately after the talk on
sex purity by Dr. Howard A. Kelly,
Dr. McCuaig found the ground broken
for him and the people much Inter
ested In the subject he came to dis
cuss. Harrisburg Is notoriously neg- I
lectful or the speaker who comes "with
a message" of any sort. Even the
worldfamous Dwight L. Moody, who
drew thousands and tens of thousands
the country over, was permitted to ad
dress a mere handful of people here.
This is something to be ashamed of,
but It is true. All the more notable
is it, then, that Dr. McCuaig- drew so
many to hear him during the nearly
three weeks he was here. Magnetic
speaker that he is. he could not have
held his audiences so unless there was
In the minds of the masses a new and
deep Interest in the sdbject matter of
his lectures.
i A dispatch says Thaw got mixed up
over his Income tax statement. Now
does that prove he ought to be in Mat
teawan, or doesn't it?
L W. W. seems to mean in most In
stances "I Won't Work."
ctvenin& CEATI
Mute evidence of the severity of
Sunday's blizzard is still apparent from
the car windows of trains passing to
and fro upon the Rockvllle bridge.
That Sunday mgnt will go down in

Biorma as one of tne worat; from day
to day the toll ig being reckoned in
repair bills and maintenance requi
sitions. Tne average traveler in one
of tne Pennsy's swift trains doesn't
ponuer over tuat pnase of tne storm's
trail; he has tne severity of the
weather more forcibly impressed upon
hiin, nowever, as he nues over tne
briage and IOOKS out upon the frosen
expanse of tne Susquenanna beneatn.

in the ice. is tne evidence—half a

of treight cars that were blown from
the cars during tne groat blizzard as
the trains passed over the briuge.
From time to time old Telegraph
readers ana subscribers bring In copies
of the newspaper of tne uayß when
Lincoin was tne man of tne nour. Tne
papers are always a matter of inter
est, especially to Telegraph readers, it
lor no olner reason tnau purposes ot
comparison. Just such a copy was re
cently unearthed from a lot ot old
treasures of tne kind by Frank N.
Templar, recently promoted to the
chief clerkship of the Department of
Public Safety. Mr. Tempiar lias had
.he paper tucked away for a number
of years and it is in an excellent state
of preservation. Tne paper is es
pecially interesting in that it contains
tne story of the death of Abraham
Lincoln, it is dated April 15, lSt>s.
Another Telegraph of September 2u,
iSbi, exhibited by Mr. Tempiar con
tains an account of tne death of Presi
dent James A. Garfield.
Tho parcel post is saving money for
Father and it may amount to
tiiousands of dollars at the end ot the
•>ear. hi tne Hlgnway Department ail
automobile tags have been going par
cel post, a ruling to this etteci having
been made last April, and the numer
ous bulletins and other publications
above four pounds have been going
the same way. in years gone by the
express payments of the state mounted
into high figures, but now Uncle Sam
gets the business wherever possible,
and after tho middle of this month
probably more will go under the new
ruling from Washington. The experi
ence of the Department of Agriculture
Illustrates the way it has been saving
money. On a shipment of 143 bulle
tins the other day the department
saved $28.21 as compared with express
rates, while on a shipment of 147
bulletins it saved 133.54. Another ad
vantage In the shipment of such pub
lications which go mostly to farmers
and people in rural communities, is
tnat by the parcel post the rural mail
delivery man carries it right to hi&
"ox within a short distance of tho
house, whereas before It went to the
nearest express office and the farmer
nad to go and get it. Secretary N. B.
Critchfleld has been pushing the dis
tribution end of the department to an
oxtent never dreamed of two years ago
oy means of the parcel post system
and Is doing it cheaper than under the
old plan. If the ruling to admit books
>s made the State will save still greater
sums of money because the 19X3
Smull's Handbook and the pamphlet
.aws are going out.
The snow which fell yesterday at
tracted much attention among the
weatherwise because someone had fig
ured out that It was the "Onion" snow,
or the snow which ordinarily ends the
lall for the year. However, It Is said
by some of our rural friends that the
onion" snow comes about the firs*
week in April and is so named because
.t falls right after the new onions have
been set out.
Although automobile licenses have
oeen Issued from the office of the
division at the Capitol by the thou
sands lately, people are still asking for
special numbers. One man has asked
tor 40,Q0u, while another who follows
the issuance of tags has stated that
nasmuch as it does not look as though
traveling would be good for some
weeks to come, he would be glad if
when 50,000 is reached it should be
put aside for him.
"i Council is getting
ready to rename some of the streets
which have been going about under
names of the fishes and fowls, the
ierrles and the flowers," said a man
•vho follows such matters pretty
closely. "Now why does not the Coun
cil of the capital city of Pennsylvania
adopt the -lan of Philadelphia and
name its streets after the counties and
the Governors? Surely there is no
more approbate place to have the
names of counties and the men who
lave been Governors than right here
at the capital. It Is worth while con
sidering instead of taking fancy names
and putting them on streets. Phila
delphia laid out streets for miles
around and they are now building up
or built up.. They bear the names of
counties and Governors and our city
planning commission could give the
Council some good suggestions."
Nathan R. Buller, the State Com
missioner of Fisheries, who returned
to the State Capitol yesterday after
having been snowbound for several
days, said that ho never wanted to go
through the experience again. "We
had snow drifts thirty feet high in the
streets of our town and I saw them
twenty feet high In many places. One
woman was frozen to death going to
a barn and two boys who got lost may
die as a result of exposure."

PILiyER FAILED
TO SEGIE PEACE
Congressman Said to Be Disap
pointed as a Result of West
ern Invasion
CONGRESSMAN LEE IS HIT
Fight Among the Democrats Be
coming Very Bitter in Every
Part of State
Tho Pittsburgh Dispatch, which oc
cupies about the aame position in re
gard to Independent politics as is oc
cupied by the Public Ledger In Phila
delphia, and which has been, if any
thing, favorable to the Democratic
State machine, gives the following In
side story of the invasion of Western
Pennsylvania which turned into a re
treat from Moscow:
"Congressman A. Mitchell Palmer
found the Democratic situation here
so involved and the feeling so bitter
that he refused before departing for
the East to make any comment on
existing conditions. Whatever efforts
he may have put forth to harmonize
tho warring factions In Allegheny
county were unavailing and It Is prob
able that his efforts to heal up the
differences in the Erie-Crawford Con
gressional district were quite as un
availing. In the Northwest a big
Democratic row was precipitated by
the appointment of Assemblyman E.
Lowry Humes as United States prose
cutor in the western district here. Tho
county organization in Crawford gave
notice of Its displeasure by defeating
the Palmer-McCormlck candidate for
county chairman by an overwhelming
vote. The Humes faction Is now be
hind the candidacy of S. 8. Bryan, of
Tltusville, for the congressional nomi
nation, and the opposition is prepared
to line up behind ex-Mayor Liebel, of
Erie. The fight will go on down the
line Into the legislative and other
battles and will have a direct effect
upon the county fights of next year.
Federal patronage will probably be
shoved out to help the Bryan-Humes
cause, as a number of Post Office
appointments are now being held up
in the district.
"Congressman Palmer left Western
Pennsylvania convinced that the chal
lenges shot out from the rival countv
committee meetings In this county last
wee! were not mere flashes In the pan.
It Is to be a bitter battle to the finish,
for even now the rival leaders aro con
ferring with their followers, and each
side will have a complete set of can
didates for every nomination to be
made In the county."
According to Philadelphia news
papers, Speaker Alter has not yet
decided what he will do about the In
vitation of the
Dlmmlck boomers
Gubernatorial to become a can-
Sltuatlon Is dldate for the Re-
Inteireating Now publican nomina
tion for Governor
on an antl-Pen
rose platform. The Speaker Is com
mitted to the Dimmick candidacy and
is being urged to stand, but does not
appear to be anxious to make the fight
for personal reasons. In Philadel
phia Senator Penrose let loose a
broadside at J. Denny O'Neil yester
day, declaring him an opportunist.
Dr. Martin G. Brumbaugh Is getting
hundreds of letters and telegrams urg
ing him to be a candidate for the Re
publican nomination for Governor,
but he will not announce himself until
he is formally requested by people in
his home county of Huntingdon,
where a big movement for him has
started. When Penrose was asked
about Dr. Brumbaugh he said that he
would be glad to see him and anyone
else In the race, as a lot of candidates
would express the spirit of the State
wide primary. This attitude, needless
to say, is In sharp contrast to the sav
age resentment shown by the reor
ganization Democrats against Michael
J. Ryan for daring to run against the
Jersey slate. The Bull Moosers are
expecting Brumm to get into the fight
against Lewis and will welcome the
chance for a fight.
The troubles of the reorganisation
bosses of the State Democracy in the
Montgomery district have been inten
sified by the refusal
of Henry Wilson
Bergey, a member Bergey Will
of the last House. Not Play the
to lie down. Ber- Dead Man Part
gey Is a natural
born kicker, and
the story goes that when he said he
wanted to be senatorial choice of the
reorganizes they responded by slating
Edward Ingersoll, a close friend of
Congressman R. E. Dlefenderfer, who
wants to be re-elected. This did not
deter Bergey a bit and yesterday he
announced his candidacy from the
metropolis of Lansdale. Senator Jo
seph Heacock will probably be a can
didate for renomlnation, and thus the
Democrats are split right off the reel.
E. W. Patton will run for the Repub
lican nomination to succeed John O.
Sheatz In Philadelphia, and Sam Scott
yesterday announced that ho was
ready to be promoted from the House
to the Senate If the Germantown peo
ple wanted him. Representative C. C.
Hoover, a good, strong member from
Clearfield, will be a candidate for tho
Republican nomination in that dis
trict.
The Philadelphia Record of to-day
makes this statement In regard to a
situation recently given attention here:
"Announcement was made at the
Ryan headquarters yesterday that
Henry J. McAteer, of Huntingdon,
who had been groomed by Palmer for
State Senator In his district, had de
clared for the City Solicitor for Gov
ernor. Mr. McAteer repudiated as un
true a report from Palmer sources
that the Huntlngfidon county com
mittee had endorsed McCormick."
Reorganization Democrats here to
day were amazed when they heard
that the fight in Schuylkill county had
resulted In D. F. Gui
nan, of Mahanoy City,
Opposition being brought out as a
Starts to candidate for the Dem-
Robert Lee ocratlc nomination for

NEWS stand for the initials of
the four points of the compass.
What the news does is liter
.ally to put you In touch with
( the four quarters of the whole
world every day In the year and
, almost every hour of the day.
The advertising has come to
be an essential part of the news.
It covers the entire oompass of
I the business world-
It tells of the currents of
I trade.
It tells where things are made,
what they are for, and what
they cost.
It deals with facts—facts that ,
concern the well being of the
people.
Tako It from tho standpoint
I of actual helpfulness—and there
I is, on the whole, little news In
' tho newspaper that 1b as lmpor
| tant as the advertising.
