JUDGE KUNKEL'S CANDIDACY
IT must have been with a feeling of
gratlflcatibn that the people of
Dauphin county learned last night
that George Kunkel, president
judge of the courts of this district,
had consented to be a candidate for
the Supreme Court in response to the
request of the lawyers of the Dauphin
bar without regard to political affilia
tions. Judge Kunkel so strongly
typifies what the people of this county
expect of a judge that the support that
-will be given to him will be virtually
unanimous. The Judge has the friend
ship of every man in the county worth
having and his candidacy will be a
matter of local pride.
Under the nonpartisan judicial elec
tion act, the two candidates receiving
the highest number of votes will he
placed upon the ballot for the Novem
ber election, providing one candidate
does not receive over 50 per cent, of
the votes cast at the primary, in which
event his shall be the only name
placed on the ballot. Last Fall the
people of Dauphin county renominated
and re-elected George Kunkel judge of
this county without a vote in opposi
tion, a tribute to the magnificent
record he made upon the bench in his
first term of ten years. It would be to
the credit of Pennsylvania if its voters
should place Kunkel's name alone on
the ballot.
It is not worth while to remark
upon the knowledge, courage and ju
dicial poise of this man born and
reared in our midst. They are known
from one end of the State to the other,
appreciated by thousands of lawyers
In Pennsylvania who have practiced
In the courts of this county or by rea
son of their study of the decisions of
our court which have been sustained
in a measure almost unparalleled in
the records of the State. When it is
stated that in addition to these strong
reasons. Judge Kunkel has had an
experience In State cases, taxation and
others, not possessed by anyone else;
that he Is an authority on ballot laws
and knows the processes of lawmak
ing from service in the legislative
halls, the presentation of cases both as
district attorney and as defender, and
is swayed by nothing but his own con
science, he stands pre-eminent even
mnong the ablo men mentioned for the
Supreme Court this year.
If "9pug" meant Society for the Pre
vention of Useless Grouches, who
wouldnjt join?
GKNERAL TERRAZAS
ONE of the most pathetic figures
in the world to-day is that of
General Louis Terrazas, once
the richest man in Mexico, now
a tottering, enfeebled, poverty-stricken
fugitive from his native land, plead
ing pitifully for the life of his son,
held prisoner by Villa for a sum the
father cannot pay.
Terrazas' fate symbolizes the reign
of terror in Mexico. We, north of the
Rio Grande, with our long inherited
Anglo-Saxon respect for law and or
der, cannot imagine the conditions
that prevail just across the line from
Texas. Some day the literature of the
Mexican revolution will be written and
the bloodiest days of its French coun
terpart will furnish no redder chap
ters. It is only in such glaring in
stances as that of Terrazas and his
family that we obtain a glimpse of the
ruthlessness of the bloodthirsty ban
dits who for their own selfish pur
poses, behind the mask of liberty, are
laying waste all Mexico.
There was a time when the name
Terrazas meant the possession of
practically the entire State of Chi
huahua, aside from the fact that Gen
eral Terrazas was its Governor and
autocrat. His estate was valued at
more than $500,000,000, because his
family and those of the Maderos and
the Creels owned nearly all of North
ern Mexico, with Terrazas by far the
chief proprietor. Over his 8,000,000
acres ranged herds of the finest cattle
and sheep, with an army of more than
2,000 cowboys and riders to guard
them. His "ranch house" . cost more
than $1,500,000 find was a palace ca
pable of accommodating 500 guests.
Naturally, when the present revolu
tion shook Mexico the eyes and grasp
hands of the revolutionists turned
SATURDAY EVENING,
to the vast Terrazas fortune which
other revolutions had already under
j mined. As far back aa 1912 the down
-1 fall of the great house of Terrazas had
, practically been accomplished, and In
that, year the aged general fled to Los
Angeles. His estate had been confis
cated and whatever money he had was
said to have been taken by him In gold
when he made his escape. Owing to
the haste with which he had to leave
and what little the revolutionists had
left him, this could not have been a
very large amount —a mere pittance
of the vast wealth he had controlled.
| It was during the thirty-six years
of the rule of Diaz that General Ter
razas was able, as the right hand of
the dictator, to amass his vast wealth
and to make himself a power in the
northern part of the country.
But so bereft has the old man been
of both wealth and power that he has
been unable until now even to treat
with General Francisco Villa In the
maiter of the ransofti the latter de
manded as the price of his BOII'S life
and liberty. For months young Don
Luis has been a captive and subjected
to all sorts of torture to wring the
ransom from his father, or at least an
Inkling of the hiding place of some of
the money the old man was thought
to have saved from the wreck of his
fortune.
Possibly Terrazas wrung his fortune
from an oppressed people. At least
In return he guaranteed that people
protection and peace, whereas those
who have succeeded him know no limit
to ravage and rapine, and they have
laid his rich and prosperous acres in
waste and have scattered his retain
ers and have slaughtered his herds.
Terrazas was at all events a builder,
a constructionist. Villa is a looter, a
destroyer. Freedom never lights her
battles in the garb of a butcher or a
bandit, and the wrongs the Mexican
revolutionists have done to Terrazas
and hundreds of others in northern
Mexico will be visited upon their own
heads. History is replete with tyrants
—and headsmen.
A Norrlstown jury lias decided that
it is not "spooning" for a young man
to sit on a girl's lap if lie does so for
the express purpose of keeping Ills im
maculate white trousers clean. But how
can a jury decide when this is the "ex
press purpose" of the young man.
\V ORMLEY SBURG'S ENTERPRISE
WORMLEYSBURG will have
Harrisburg's best wishes in
its efforts looking toward the
erection of a suitable town
hall. It is to be hoped that
the little town across the river will not
have to wait as long as Harrisburg has
for suitable quarters for its municipal
government. Its residents are appar
ently much more interested in the
enterprise than Harrisburg is in the
frequently discussed project of uniting
the city and the county offices under
one roof on the site of the Court
house. It is not pleasant to think
that they have a greater pride ia their
town, but the suspicion arises that
they do have.
The fire company of Wormleysburg
has shown its own public spirit by
taking the lead, offering from its own
treasury the sum of SSOO toward the
proposed building, with the under
standing that it shall have quarters on
the first floor. Residents of the town
have agreed to assist in the enterprise
as soon as the borough is assured of
clear title to the site in mind, a minor
technicality to be settled by the courts.
The success of the enterprise seems
assured.
The proposed improvement is in
line with the spirit manifested by
Wormleysburg along other lines of en
deavor in recent years. From a mere
collection of houses facing unkempt
highways the borough has become one
of the best kept, cleanest and most
prosperous looking of Harrisburg's
many suburbs.
AGAIN, THE FLY
WEATHER conditions are any
thing but summer-like, hut
while old winter is still doing
his best to make us believe
that Pennsylvania has been transport
ed suddenly to the latitude of Alaska,
the committee on sanitary affairs of
the Merchants' Association of New York
Is sending broadcast over the country
the first of its anti-fly campaign bul
letins. With the snow a foot deep on
the ground the well-known swat-the
fly slogan is raised with undiminished
energy.
"Flies cost the United Stales an
nually $350,000,000," says the bul
letin, which, by the way, fails to
quote authority for its figures. But let
that go and listen to this as a har-1
binger of Spring: "The present is the
time to kill flies, before the weather
becomes warm and the 'hold-overs'
begin to propagate. One fly now means
innumerable millions later on."
The author of the bulletin is strong
on figures. Higher mathematics and
the mysteries of Calculus have no ter
rors for him. Read for yourself:
A single fly is capable of deposit
ing 150 eggs at one time, and of
producing five or six batches dur
ing its short life.
The progeny of a single pair of
flies, assuming that they all live,
if pressed together at the end of
the summer, would occupy a space
of over 14,000,000 cubic feet.
This would be equivalent to a
building as large as the Woolworth
Building.
These figures show the incalcu
lable possibilities of a single fly and
liow vital it is to destroy the winter
flies.
Don't think because the flies do
not annoy you now that they should
not be "swatted;" now is when
"swatting" Is most effective.
Perhaps we may pause a moment
before accepting these figures at their
face value, but when we consider that
one fly may be responsible for a half
dozen cases of typhoid and that no
baby, or adult either, is safe where
a fly exists, the excuse for swatting
both early and late is plainly evi
dent. We In Harrisburg enlist. Bring
on your files. And the fewer the lialrs
on our venerable gray heads the more
enthusiastically and frequently will we
swat.
The country displays strong symp
toms of having been kicked by a mule.
Democratic.

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPfI
leveninfr char
| The curious requests made of the
j Department of the Secretary of the
I Commonwealth have lately been ln
creased by a number of letters from
persons aspiring to become detectives,
jwho write for information as to the
-method of securing licenses, but the
I banner letter was received yesterday
; from Washington. This letter was
addressed to William Jennings Bryan,
Secretary of State, by a resident of
the upper end of York county who
requested that the Secretary send him
some books on how to learn to be a
detective. He stated that he had been
; working on some cases in his neigh
[ borhood and desired further informa
tion, especially about securing a li
cense. Many of the letters received at
the Capitol come from people who
want State licenses as detectives and
there has been such a notable increase
in their number recently that officials
are wondering as to the cause. The
applicants are Informed that the
fjf an if n ® of licenses to detectives is In
the hands of the courts of common
pleas in each county.
Judge Kunkel is the first candidate
Dauphin county has had for the Su
preme Court bench in many years, al
though Judges Slmonton and McPher
son were mentioned for the honor at
one time or another, but their candi
dacy not pushed the way the mem
bers of the bar and the people of the
county have put forward. This county,
in spite of the importance of the State
cases tried in its courts, which are
constantly growing in number and
scope, has not been represented on
the Supreme bench.
Prominent among visitors to the
city yesterday was Burd Patterson,
secretary of the Western Historical
Society, of Pittsburgh, who came here
to attend to some matters at the Cap
itol. He was the guest of the Rev.
Dr. M. D. Lichleiter, one of the vice
presidents of the State Federation of
Historical Societies, who escorted him
about the city.
Some of the fruits being sold about
the city are not only remarkable for
their cost, but for the fact that they
are here at ail. The fruits include
peaches and pears and come from far
away sunny climes, wrapped up as
carefully as though the} - were babies.
They are brought in refrigerated ships
and cars and packed in boxes that are
specially prepared.
The retirement of Miss Buelah Ken
nard from the Pittsburgh Board of
Education to engage in work in New
York City will take away a prominent
ligure at educational and women's
meetings and at the same time deprive
the State of the services of an un
usually gifted woman. She is about
to make her home in Manhattan.
The Harrisburg Pipe & Pipe Bending
Company is the second concern to
place a large order for pig iron for
delivery during the second quarter of
the year, the Central having placed
its order some time ago. The pipe
company has ordered 2,500 tons from
eastern makers. It appears that iron
can be bought from the furnaces in
the eastern part of the State cheaper
than it can be produced along the
banks of the Susquehanna.
According to a general belief of
country people in the city for market
to-day, 1914 will be a good year for
fruit. As a result of the snow of yes
terday, they contend, the trees will
be laden with apples, peaches, pears,
cherries and similar crops to an ex
tent unknown in recent years. When
a March snow clings to the branches
as that which fell yesterday and last
night did, an old weather adage has
it the signs are all for an abundant
yield. The weather man says he
knows not whence the belief came,
how it originated or how much of
truth there may be in it, but certainly
so far as the weather bureau is con
cerned there is no scientific basis for
it. "My father told me always to
watch the last snow of any depth In
March," said a Shiremanstown man
yesterday afternoon, "and if it clings
to the branches of the trees to look
out for a heavy crop of fruits and nuts
of all kinds. I myself have observed
that this is true. This seems to me to
be about the last chance of a heavy
snow this Spring and I am basing my
guess on it."

WHAT THE BLIND DREAM
Of what do blind men dream, who never
saw
The beauty, light and glory of God's
day;
Who entered life, despite of Nature"*
law.
Destined to darkness all the weary
way?
I asked one. and his face shone with
delight:
His dreams were ever of an angel
choir
And organ music that to heaven invite
To realize dear hopes and soul-de
sire.
In dreinis he felt the touch of hands
he knew,
Gentle caresses he had learned to
love,
And heard words spoken beautiful and
true—
His blindness he was never conscious
Of-T-
Around him were the fragrances of
flowers,
Though he ne'er saw their beauty,
grace and hue;
A moment's dream would seem like Joy
for hours.
Nor mourned he for the sense he
never knew.
No vision could disturb him as he slept
Nor sight of suffering. So was nature
kind,
Thus giving compensation, though she
Her face of loveliness turned from
the blind.
In the hereafter, when the grand sur
prise
Of glory-light gives us new power
to see,
We'll gaze on all with new, unclouded
eyes,
And know that we on earth were
blind as he.
—George Birdseye in The Christian
Herald.
AN EVENING THOUGHT
Charge once more then and be
dumb,
Let the victors, when they come,
When the forts of roily fall,
Fihd thy body by the wall!

SPEAKER ALTER IS
NOTA CANDIDATE
Says That He WiD Not Enter the
Contest For Republican
Gubernatorial Job
GIVES HIS PERSONAL REASON
Brumm Will Enter the Race For
the Bull Moosers Nomination
Very Speedily
Speaker George E. Alter, of the
State House of Representatives, last
night announced In Pittsburgh that
he would not be a candidate for the
Republican nomination for governor.
The speaker said that personal rea
sons impelled him to this decision, but
he intimates pretty strongly that he
Intends to continue in politics, but is
not now a candidate for anything.
The speaker's announcement has
been awaited with much Interest as
he has many friends in this commun
!lty, who would have been glad to take
off their coats in his behalf.
In his statement the speaker says:
"It is well known to my friends who
have talked to me about the matter
that the suggestion of my being a can
didate for governor at the coming
election has never appealed strongly
to me. 1 have now decided definitely
that I will not be a candidate. The
very strong tenders of support which
come to me have been extremely
gratifying and many of my friends
have suggested reasons for my candi
dacy, to all of which I have listened
and given full consideration, but I can
not agree to be a candidate at this
time. Reasons ol' a personal nature,
apart from public or political con
sideration!, have all along weighed
against the thought of my candidacy
and mainly control this llnal decision.
I have deferred this announcement
because of my reluctance to disappoint
some of my friends who have been
most kind in their advocacy of my
candidacy and who insisted on my
giving the question further considera
tion.
"While about it I might as well
say that I am not a candidate for
anything. I have always advocated
the duty of taking an active part in
political affairs, and shall continue to
take such a part, but continuous hold
ing of public office is not essential to
public usefulness."
Judging from appearances, the
mlkeryans are going to make a con
test with the reo-gangsters for control
of the Democratic State
committee at the com-
To Contest ing primary and in ad-
Control of dition to the light over
the Macliinc the nomination for Gov
ernor the opponents of
the bosses will face a
light all along the line. Five hundred
nominating petitions have been taken
out for State committeemen by the
faction opposed to the reo-bosses and
they will be filed in due season, say
tho leaders of the other crowd. In
addition it is said that a candidate to
oppose A. Mitchell Palmer for the
senatorial nomination is to be uncov
ered and men will be named to oppose
the slating of Creasy for Lieutenant-
Governor, Meclillng for Secretary of
Internal Affairs and Bright and the
rest of tho Jersey slate for the con
gressional posts.
According to information from
Philadelphia, nominating petitions in
behalf of Judge C. N. Brumm for the
Washi n g to 'n party
nomination for Gov
ernor will be started Bull Moosers
out within a few days Split Over
by friends of the tile Slating
Schuylkill judge and
around him will rally
all of those opposed to the Flinn-
Van Valkenburg domination of the
remnants of the organization. State
Chairman A. Nevin Detrich is now
sitting as chairman at Philadelphia
and is making a valiant effort to keep
up courage by whistling and slamming
Penrose. There are so many inside
fights in the Bull Moose organization
that it is almost in the same class as
the faction-rent Democracy of Penn
sylvania.
The Philadelphia Ledger says to
day: "Superintendent Brumbaugh,
whose candidacy for the Republican
gubernatorial nomina
tion will be announced
Brumbaugh next week, will declare
Favorable in favor of local option,
to Option This was clearly lndl-'
cated yesterday when
friends said that 'Dr.
Brumbaugh will be sky high and true
blue on everv moral question." Fur
ther impetus to the Brumbaugh boom
was received yesterday when friends
of the 'schoolmaster,' attorneys in
Blair and Cambria counties, came here
to call upon him and to offer their
support. These friends were J. Banks
Kurtz, a former school teacher and an
ex-district attorney of Altoona, Blair
county, and J. W. Leech, of Ebens
burg, an ex-superintendent of schools
of Cambria county and an ex-district
attorney. They came to the city to
tell Dr. Brumbaugh that the people of
their counties, regardless of party ties,
were 'for him for Governor'."
rOLItICAL»SID6b.Iftbr«SI
—Market Square will learn in a few
days that Judge Kunkel is a candidate.
—Being sure that the executive
committee will not get away, the
bosses have decided to have the mem

draft of rules.
—Nevin Detrich always could be de
pended upon for the unique in politics.
—Eugene Bonniweli's name is not
mentioned In certain buildings in Mar

—Dr. Brumbaugh's announcement

—The Democratic executive com
mittee will meet here Thursday to ar

—Various men are now being "sug
gested" and "mentioned" for nomina

making was too raw even for the Pal
mer people to stand for.
—Judge Bonniweli's remarks have
started a lot of talk all over the State
and the fact that there is no denial Is
being commented upon.
—J. Benja»mln Dimmlck in a state
ment issued last night expressed regret
that Speaker Alter did not see his way
clear to stand for Governor.
—R. L. Emerick has been elected
chairman of the Indiana county Pro
hibitionists.

Pour salesmen to-day sat together
In hotel chairs covered with leather.
They were gloomy and sad,
And said, "Gee, it's too bad
That we've got to have this kind of
weather."
The one chap sells bathing suits trim,
And I really felt sorry for him.
When he said, "I should
For every snow flurry
Makes my chances look very dim."
The next chap had his troubles, too.
He sells waists that are real peek-a
boo.
He said, "If the women
Right now won't go swlmmin',
With my stuff what is there to do?"
Another who on the trade calls
With a line of select parasols,
Said. "You'd better go alsy
With me for I'm crazy
From seeing so many snowfalls."
The other chap sells little guards,
To place about flowers in yards.
He asked of the bunch,
"How is this for a liuncli,
Let's go up to my room and play cards."
Later on still another strolled in,
On his face was an ear-to-ear grin.
He said, "I can't lose,
For I sell overshoes,
Whatever the season we're in." j
