THF. CITY MOURNS TO-DAY
TWO ot the most prominent and |
useful citizens of Harrisburg |
were removed front their
spheres of activity by death to
* Jay. Both had contributed much to
the betterment of this community and
•the city has sustained a great loss that
must be felt more and more as the
■work of these men is better under
stood and appreciated.
John Y. Boyd and Professor L. S.
Shimmell were typical of the finest
litizenship of Harrisburg. They had
given to the community that which
•was best in them and civic, religious
snd educational 'circles will feel the
departure of these excellent citizens
in many ways.
They were men of the highest chris
tian character whose ideals found ex
pression in the support of men and
measures in the up-building of the sub
stantial and esthetic interests of the
city.
Mr. Boyd was greatly interested in
civic affairs, and was one of the earnest
group which assumed leadership in the
great improvement campaign in 1901.
He was also foremost in the erection
of the present Y. M. C. A. building
and was also active in the work of tho
Y. W. C. A., having presided at tho
noonday luncheons which were a fea
ture of the campaign that resulted in
providing funds for the new building.
He was also general superintendent of
ono of the larger Sunday schools of
the city and was a ruling elder in one
of the churches. His most important
public service was as a member of
the first State Railroad Commission.
He likewise had demonstrated his in
terest in that which is best for the
community in serving as a road super
visor In one of the contiguous town-
Chips.
' Mr. Boyd was sympathetic and cor
dial in his associations in life and he
gave freely and generously of his time
and means to the advancement of the
public welfare. ■ Only those who were
close to him can appreciate best the
nobility of his character and the
hreadth and depth of his human sym
pathies. The loss of such a man is so
overwhelming as to make difficult a
Sjroper tribute to Ills worth and use
fulness as a citizen. He achieved much
in a quiet and unostentatious way
which will constitute the best record
of his life.
Professor Shimmell was most con
spicuous in his career as an educator.
He was essentially a scholar and as a
member of the faculty of the Central
High school and later as a city super
visor of the schools he gave to Har
risburg the fruits of liis more mature
experience and learning. Through
out the city to-day there is deep sor
row, not only among tho staff of
teachers, but also among the thou
sands of girls and bovs who learned to
love and appreciate the modest, pa
tient and devoted exponent of that
■which is best in our public school sys
tem. He was known far and wide as
a broad-minded educator whose writ
ings and teachings made his name a
household word far beyond the limits
of the city in which he did his splendid
•work.
Professor Shimmell was an authority
in history and the files of the Tele
graph contain many Important articles
on historical subjects which will prove
to be of much value In the years to
come. A kindly, unobtrusive and
excellent gentleman has passed out,
and like Mr. Boyd, that which he was
doing in a quiet way will be best un
derstood when there shall be oppor
tunity to study the career that has
now been closed.
When any community loses two
Bitch men in the same hour it is
stricken indeed, but such lives do not
«nd with the passing; they live on and
the indelible Impress of their service
will remain throughout the years.
DON'T GKT EXCITED
NEWS dispatches tell us that Mrs.
VV. K. Vunderbilt, Jr., has set a
style for simplicity at Palm
Reach by appearing in a flu
anit which she selei ted in preference
t« mors elaborate sannents submit
ted for her approval. After returning
the <-o»tl> clothing sin- walked into a
MONDAY EVENING,
i small shop and bought a black dress
of conventional cut. With the ex
ception of a collar of green and white,
it was severely plain in comparison
with the very elaborate suits being
worn this season.
Possibly Mrs. Vanderbllt felt as
pleasurable a thrill In her $lO dress as
some of her $lO sisters would in one
of Mrs. Vanderbllt's gorgeous crea
tions. Let us not believe that demo
cracy lias been born suddenly full
grown in our millionaire set. The
lady was enjoying a new sensation;
that was all.
GOOD ADVICE
THE Telegraph has had always a
strong admiration for tho care
ful, conservative policies of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive En
gineers, unquestionably one of the
most ably managed labor unions in
the world. The following, from a re
cent speech of Thomas Fitcli, vice-
J president of that brotherhood, but
1 adds to that good opinion:
If you don't like the law, then
use your votes to change it. But
while it is a law, drop the club and
knife and tho gun and the dyna
mite bomb and obey the law. If
there is a worker who has what
you consider to be bad taste and
the poor judgment not to belong to
a union, you are not obliged to as
] sociate with him or greet him with
friendliness when you meet. But
you are obliged not to assault or
molest him. He may be, in your
opinion, a scab, but he has a legal
right to be a scab If he chooses. He
lias a legal right to work for
whomsoever he pleases, and for
whatever number of hours in each
day he pleases. Persuade liini to
stand by his fellow-workman if you
can. That is your right. But keep
your hands off him. Tou may bo
sure that if you attempt violence
there will step to the front a Dep
uty United States Marshal who will
say to you with a voice of 75,000,-
000 of people, and with the bayo
-1 nets of an army behind him, "Let
that man pass to his labors."
j I say to you, gentlemen, and I say
) it in all seriousness, that if tills
Government is to endure, this thing
must stop, for no Government can
permanently endure which long
permits bands of insurrectionists to
override the constitutional rights
of its citizens, as this body of vam
pires has been doing.
Spoken like an American citizen and
| a far-sighted patriot. Violence and
[ mob-rule may be in entire accord with
such organizations as the I. W. W.,
but they have no part in any trades
union that has for its purpose the
true interests of its fellows and the
advancement of civilization.

CHINA AND OPIUM
WE should not judge too harshly
of the new Republican form
of government in China be
cause of a recent press dis
patch setting forth details of the exe
cution of several violators of the new
opium regulation. Nobody unacquaint
ed with present day conditions in that
country and the difficulty of blotting
out the opium curse is in position to
pass upon tho manner of punishing
those who refuse to be bound by the
mandates of President Yuan and the
national congress in their efforts to
annihilate the drug scourge of the
nation.
Yuan Shih-kai is seriously deter
mined opium smoking shall cease to
be in China. Elaborate stops have
been taken to continue the "empire
days" propaganda against opium, to
prohibit and suppress opium-growing
and the use of the drug. In order to
make it perfectly clear that he is in
earnest, Yuan Shih-kai decreed that
deliberate violation of the anti-opium
laws should be punished by the ex
treme capital penalty.
China, unfortunately, in earlier
times was afflicted by too great fa
miliarity with the public executioner.
A certain not very considerable, but
still hurtful, proportion of the Chinese
populace has been taught through
generations to regard all punishments,
short of death, much as many of our
own gunmen in the big cities regard
all but the electric chair or hanging,
with the sangfroid of ignorance or de
pravity.
Yuan Shih-kai and his representa
tive council In Peking realize this.
Without exception every political and
social entity in China recognizes the
opium evil and lauds President Yuan
for his vigor in coping with it. And
they laud him the more because he
lives up to the letter of his decrees.
From quite reliable sources, It seems!
that several executions have taken
place in several widely distant parts
of China —about four or five, to be
precise. Will it not be worth while if,
through the decapitation of four or
five incorrlgibles, President Yuan
Shih-kai can save China's 4 00,000,-
000 men, women and children from
the awful curse of the opium habit;
and, like another Moses, lead his peo
ple out of tho worst possible sort of
slavery?
Now that he has consulted a Phila
delphia eye specialist, possibly Presi
dent Wilson will be able to see a way
out of the Mexican muddle.
HOUSING OUR GUESTS
THOSE in charge of the State
firemen's convention here next
Fall do well to lay their
plans now for the accominoda
dation of visitors who are expected by
the thousand to attend the great gath
ering.
On ordinary occasions, with no big
meetings in town, it is not uncommon
to have all the hotels filled by 8.30
in the evening. We must have room
for the many who will be with us in
October. There is only one way to
make sure of this. Owners of private
residences must be prepared to "throw
open" their homes to the strangers.
In no other way can we hope to
properly house the city's guests on
that occasion.
We would like to know why that cor
respondent felt called upon to announce
a revolution in Brazil and the fact that
Colonel Roosevelt is having an enjoy
able experience bolli under the same
dale line
Popular dames have taken the Na
tional Capital by storm says a society
item in » Washington newspaper. The

CEATI
One of these days, when Uncle Sam
commences to get rid of lost motion
in the postal service, the wisdom of
the people who ure arranging for a
larger government building in this city
will be apparent. The plan to spend
considerable money in making the
addition to the big white federal build
ing two stories beyond what was
planned by the architects of the de
partment is by 110 means caused by
deslro to have a largo structure or to
make the district loom up among those
which have received appropriations,
but is in fact based 011 a careful esti
mate of what is coming in the llarrls
burg Post Office. The average man
who sees the bags being thrown in
and out of the temporary building at
Third and Locust streets probably
never thinks that this office is the
distributing point for a number of
smaller towns and that it is the place
where the supplies for many offices
arc kept. As a matter of fact, this
city's post office handles the mail l'or
thirty-live other post offices, the bags
being handled by trolley. The mail is
made up for them .lust like it is made
up for the Hill or Maclay stations and
as it will bo made up for the new
post office in tho Capitol. Thus the
Harrisburg Post Office is the center of
a network of lines, and one of these
days Uncle Sam is going to abolish tho
expensive system of separate offices in
the surrounding towns and is going to
have the whole business handled here
with substations in various convenient
neighborhoods. The stamps, envelopes,
blanks and other things needed to run
offices are all sent from hero to the
neighboring offices, together with the
mall, and the organization will be
made closer one of these days. In fact,
it may not be so far oft.
Capitol Park was the happy hunt
ing ground of the amateur photogra
phers on Saturday morning when the
trees and shubbery were white with
the clinging masses of the snow. Right
after the ghostly mist that accom
panied the dawn began to disappear
and people saw the beauty of the
snow-covered trees and bushes in the
park thero was no time lost to get pic
tures before the sun got to work. The
Barnard statuary was adorned in the
most remarkable manner, most of the
snow clinging In masses that made '
grotesque objects out of the "frozen 1
emotion" of the worker in marble
The HartruHft statue as shown by tho
Telegraph photographer on Saturday
looked like a spook on horseback and
the Mexican monument resembled 1
Cleopatra's Needle frescoed in dazzling
white. Some exceedingly fine views ot
the park ore being shown by people
who were fortunate enough to snap
them before 10 o'clock.
No announcement made by the new
City Commissioners since they have
assumed office will create more appre
ciation outside of Harrisburg than
that the stretch of Derry street be
tween Eighteenth and Twenty-third
streets is to be paved this year. Hun
dreds of people in Philadelphia, Pitts
burgh, Heading and other cities, to say
nothing of numerous visitors from
other States, will hail this announce
ment with pleasure, and as for the
people of this city who have a jealous
pride in the magnificent area of paved
highway, they will no longer have to
dodge the oratorical brickbats of peo
ple who have come into Harrisburg bj>
Its eastern gate. This portion of Derry
street connects within a quarter of a
mile with the main highway of the
State system to the east, the road over
which comes the bulk of the heavy
automobile travel from the eastern
and northern parts of the State and
over which travel the great majority
of visitors going to Philadelphia. The
portion to be paved is one of the worst
stretches of highway of any city in
the State, a street whose condition
Is in such sharp contrast to the re
mainder of the city that It has brought
down maledictions on the city from
people who had otherwise found every
thing to praise. With the Cumberland
highways improved, the Riverside
road made one of the best in the ;
country and the lower end connecting ;
with the long stretch of pavement in
Steelton, Derry street furnished one
of the singular examples of municipal
neglect that overcome many other
commendable features. Maybe some
of the new councilmen have ridden •
over it lately and can appreciate what
it is like.

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPfI
DETRIGH AFRAID
OF PARTIT MACHINE
Seems to Think That It Is in Danger
of Being Stolen Some
Dark Evening
DEMOCRATS ARE UP IN THE AIR
Various Men Likely to Take Notion
to Enter the Primaries
Against Slate
Judging; from the remarks being
made by A. Nevin Detrlch, chairman
of the Washington party State com
mittee, the Chambersburger is very
much afraid that some one will walk
off with the remnants of the party of
which he is the titular head. There
has been such a heavy movement
among Bull Moosers to return to their
former allegiance that the movement
inside of the Washington party to
name Brumbaugh for Governor has
scared the young Franklin countlan.
A statement issued yesterday de
clares that there is an effort under
way to take away what is left and a
frantic appeal is made for the Bull
Moosers to stand firm. Yesterday word
went out from the headquarters that
the Bull Moosers needed money to run
their campaign and needed it badly.
Pllnn is still in the South and no one
seems to be coming across.
William Abbot Witman, of Heading,
and Judge John M. Garman, of
Wilkes-Barre, may be candidates for
the Democratic nomi
nation for Senator
Witman und against Congressman
(iaiinan May A. Mitchell Palmer.
Enter Race Papers for Witman
are now in circulation
in Berks county, but it
is said that they are not being taken
seriously. Garman will be a danger
ous antagonist if he gets into the
light and Palmer is said to be worried
over such an outcome. The Demo
cratic ringmasters will be here on
Thursday to talk over matters and will
probably frame up the rest of the
slate. Saturday a meeting was held
in Philadelphia to boom Palmer and
McCormick, Col. "Bill" Fairman, of
Punxsutawney, being one of the prime
movers.
G. Dallas Fox, a Milton merchant,
and a past exalted ruler of the order
of Elks, has announced himself as a
candidate for the Demo
cratic nomination for the
office of State Senator to Lively Days
succeed John T. Fisher, Coming Up
of Shamokin, who died tlie River
in office. The district
includes X o rthumber
land, Snyder and Union counties. With
ex-Senator William C. McConnell,
Shamokin, a candidate for the Repub
lican nomination and F. M. <Reber, a
Milton lawyer, seeking the Washing
ton party nomination, politicians say
there will be an exciting race for the
office. Fisher defeated William H.
Haekenberg, Milton, the Washington,
and McConnel, who was the Repub
lican candidate, at the last senatorial
election two years ago.
In commenting upon the statement
issued by Representative George 15.
Alter, of Pittsburgh, declining to be
come a candidate for the
Republican nomination
Should Be for Governor, Mr. Dim-
Separate mick, candidate for the
in Fight United States Senate,
made the following state
ment yesterday:
"As far as my own candidacy is con
cerned, Mr. Alter thought he could
' be of greater service than if he would
run for office himself. And there are
very many of my friend? who think
th it the contest for the United States
Senatorship should be kept free from
the gubernatorial fight."

—Nevin Detrlch ought to lock up
his party at night when he leaves the
office. Some one might steal It.
—"Bill" Falrman will lend pic

some bets will have to be changed.
—Wonder what Palmer thinks
about Witman as an opponent.
1 —Dlmmick says he is for woman
suffrage.
—Light. Yeager and Focht make a

licans to think over.
—Roper apparently does not think
it impropeP for a federal office holder
to boost the Jersey slate for Pennsyl
vania Democrats.
—Mayor Royal is secretary of the

slate. But he'll be busy enough at
home with that State committee
boom.
—Senator Heacock will fight DilT
enderfer for the Democratic nomina
tion for Congress in the Montgomery-
Bucks district.
—Congressman Butler says he is
for national prohibition.
—Harvey J. Steele will run against
Palmer's slate for Congress in his

PRESIDENT WILSON
[From the Philadelphia Public Ledger.]
The President has done nothing as
yet to check the extravagance of his
party, which threatens to swamp the
Treasury. His recommendations for
further anti-trust legislation have been
followed by the introduction of bills the
text of which is in many cases ludic
rous. He has, by intimation, acquiesced
In a series of wild attacks or business
as such, for a word from him would
have been sufficient to restrain the
mad hysteria of the demagogues. It is
probable that he will veto arty wanton
legislation or prevent it, but he has
erred grievously In not taking a posi
tive stand to prevent the harassment
to which business is now being sub
jected. Nor is it evident that he used
his undoubted inlluence to prevent the
passage of the good roads "pork bar
rel." and there is nothing to show that
the Alaskan railway project is repug
nant to him. Tho tight rein which he
held until Christmas lias been loose
since then.
