RIDIXG FOR A FATjTJ
AS the breach in the Democratic
party in Pennsylvania widens
the Republicans are closing up
their ranks anil preparing to
administer a sound drubbing to the
little group now in control of
the Democratic machine. When
Democrats In a public meeting de
nounce the methods and practices of
the* Palmers and McCormicks as dan
gerous to the future well-being of
their party it is little wonder that the
Republicans who sought false gods in
1912 and gave comfort and support
to the common enemy are now return
ing to the colors in large numbers.
It is manifestly the hope of the
White House slated candidates that
the patriotic sentiment of the country
back of the President in the Mexico
embroglio will aid them in some way,
but while standing shoulder to shoul
der with the President there is among
the people a strong undercurrent of
protest against the administration for
the fatuous policy that contributed to
the intolerable conditions in Mexico.
Every patriotic citizen of the United
States will do his duty without ques
(ion, but the fact that a different atti
tude upon the part of the government
at Washington a year ago would, as
experienced statesmen assert, have
made for peace and order in the dis
tracted republic on our southern bor
der will not be forgotten in the gen
eral preparation for hostilities. Fine
phrases and epigrammatic philosophy
will not gloss over self-evident truths
regarding the whole unfortunate busi
ness nor sh6uld the patriotic support
of the administration in this State be
mistaken for endorsement of the Wil
son ticket here.
There are even now unmistakable
evidences on all sides of the getting
together of Republicans. Taft men
and Roosevelt men are casting aside
their differences, and while the Demo
cratic factions are rending each other
there is increasing good feeling among
the Republican voters of all shades of
belief.
And in proportion as the cementing]
of the strength of the majority goes i
on the accidental party in power loses ]
its hope of further hoodwinking the
people In Pennsylvania or elsewhere.
Rreaking down of the civil service
safeguards of good government, bar- I
iering political patronage for cash or
Its equivalent, violating every principle
of fair play, contemptuously ignoring
the open primary and denouncing nil
who object to their arbitrary and
high-handed course, the Wilson repre
sentatives in Pennsylvania are riding
for a fall.
When Colonel Roosevelt emerges
from the Jungles of South America and
hears about the twenty-five millions
gratuity to Colombia as a salve for the
taking of the Panama strip, there will
be something doing in the line of
vociferous and emphatic denunciation.
A GOOD SIG\
THE ENGINEERING NEWS calls
attention to the remarkable in
vestments of United States
Steel Corporation employes in
the securities of that company, no
less than 46,498 officials, clerks and
workmen having purchased a total of
42,926 shares of preferred stock and
47,680 of common since January 1 of
this year. The News sees in this
merely a continuance of the plan ob
served in previous years, beginning
with 1903, offering to the employes
the privilege of stock subscription.
The subscription price was fixed at
$lO5 per share for the preferred and
$57 ner share for the common stock.
The annual balance allowances for
five years for special compensation or
bonus to be paid subscribers who re
tain their stock at $5 per share for
the preferred and $3.50 per share for
the common stock. The conditions
attached to the offer and subscription,
aside from the features of subscrip
tion price and the amount of special
compensation or bonus to be paid
were substantially the same as those
under which stock has been offered
to employes in each of the previous
ten years.
These remarkably large purchases
at a time when the steel business is
aQytirtng but good and when some of
TUESDAY EVENING,
the (firmest iron manufacturers in the
country are passing their dividends
indicate that the men who know the
steel corporation best ha\e most con
fidence In its future. It is a pretty
good sign when the employee of any
concern are willing to invest their
savings in it. Evidently they feel
pretty certain that the tide of business
is at 4 Its ebb and that.the steel cor
poration is so firmly grounded that
when it swings back on the returning
wave of prosperity, with the election
of a Republican administration to of
fice. its shares will be among the most
desirable securities on the market.
Superintendent of Public Works
Lynch Is probably taking account of
the street paving conditions, especially
the disregard of the repairs which
characterized his immediate predeces
sor in the department of highways.
There is plenty of work for the re
pair contractor chis year and in some
cases it will mean whole blocks Instead
of a few patches here and there of new
asphalt. *As a city having a wide
reputation for the high character of Its
paved streets, it is necessary to keep
the paving in first-class repair.
"BAILEY THE BAGMAN"
WILSON BAILEY ought to be
assured of a life job as col
lector iu chief for the reor
ganized Democracy—that is.
if the reorganized Democracy con
tinues in existence after the Kilkenny
cats affair now in progress.
Bailey, according to the Ledger, is
known in the reorganization camp by
the appropriate and euphonious title
of "Bailey the Bagman."
To sensitive ears "Bailey the Bag
man" may sound harsh and crude.
"Bailey the Bagman" may savor of
ill-gotten spoils, of unwilling victims
held up in the dark byways and maced
into giving lip their hard earned coin.
But not so: No such "roughhouse"
methods for the gentlemanly agent of
the reorganlzers whose duty it is to
make country postmasters contribute
toward campaign expenses. Instead
of the club he employs the smile.
Says the Ledger:
Wilson Bailey is the acknowl
edged bagman of the committee.
Due to his persuasive arguments,
his cogent reasoning, his winning
smiles, the fiscal agent has well
idled the coffers at the Harrlsburg
•headquarters. Bailey is a master
in his line. His chief character
istic is a wide, open, frank, sincere
smile. When Bailey smiles It is al
most impossible for an appointee
of the Palmer-McCormick organiza
tion not to contribute. His appear
ance. too, weighs heavily in his I
favor. It goes with his calling.
Ballev, who is now personally ac- j
quainted with the majority of the
country postmasters in the State, Is
visiting others in Representative A.
Mitchell Palmer's district.
But the Ledger neglects to point
out the fact that back of "Bagman
Bailey" stand the grim and sinister
figures of the bosses. The Ledger
does not state that if the applicant
for a postmastership fails to "fall for"
the grin of the "Bagman." if he re
fuses to "give up" before the hypnotic
smile, the stuffed club is ready for
swift and certain descent. Bang, biff,
and away goes the job to somebody
who is willing to pay for it.
And the agent for the sale of post
masterships goes merrily on his smil
ing way.
"Fighting Jack" Robinson more
formally ex-Congressman John B.
Robinson —has filed his nomination
papers as a candidate for Congress-at
contest with his usual fire and en- j
ergy, the bald eagle of the Media dis- ;
trict will give the other aspirants for j
Congressional honors at large plenty |
to do. He is a fine campaigner, and his
long experience in public life makes
him a formidable candidate in the free
for-all race this year.
Those Lancaster tobacco growers
who have never before rece.-\ d such
low prices as now prevail, the average
price being hardly more than enough to
pay for fertilizer and work, are not
strong admirers of the present national
administration and its free trade poli
cies. Experimental theories in govern
ment involve untold disaster and dis
content.
Maybe some of those scrappy politi
cal bosses in this State can find room
for their pugilistic abilities in Mexico.
They have declare< with great fre
quency that they "are on the firing
line" and "will light to the finish." First
call for volunteers should reduce the
number of champions of the "dear pee
pul" north of the Rio Grande.
Perhaps there are still a few Bull
Moosers who believe that there is hope
of electing a United States Senator and
a Governor in Pennsylvania, but they
I must be mighty lonesome. About all
that the Washington party can do in
Pennsylvania this year is to reduce the
Republican majority.
Protection of the shade trees of the
city from the vandal hands of the tree
butcher Is a duty which now confronts
the City Council. Appointment of a
competent shade tree commission, with
some authority over the trees, would
prevent further destruction.
Those unsightly poles still standing
in the central part of the city without
excuse should go quickly. In the mat
ter of the elimination of the poles one
corporation is no better than another,
and it is up to the City Council to put
the kibosh on all of them.
President Wilson could hardly expect
the country to grow very enthusiastic
over his Mexican policy, but it is
another case of the family standing to
gether against the outsider and all
Americans will back the Stars and
Stripes against the world.
Coxey's army, numbering seventeen
last Saturday, should now be recruited
to full strength for service in Mexico.
But Coxey's order to "cut out booze"
has had a depressing effect on his war
riors.
Suggestion for speech by Secretary
Redfield: "Hurrah! Hurrah! The coun
try is prosperous. There are only 4,000,-
000 men out of work, and we're going
to give them Jobs In the army."
What a chance this Mexican affair
offers for a joyful reunion of the
Rough Riders.
And Roosevelt 6,000 miles away!
I EVENING CHAT i
National Guardsmen are talking
about the possibility of a coincidence
in the summoning of the Pennsylvania
organized militia to war sorvlce with
the time when the Harrlsburg soldiers
lett the cits' to enter the Federal ser
vice tor service in the Spanish War.
If a call comes for Pennsylvania
Guardsmen to enter the United States
service the men could be ready in the
short period that has characterized
them when summoned for duty in
strikes or for war service. In
fact. some of them have al
ready gotten ready to answer
a call and a few have begun
to study Spanish words because the
taking of the militia into the Federal
'service with authority to send over
the border is regarded as certain.
Hack in IB9S the Governor's Troop
and Company D of the Eighth ln
! tantry left the city on April 28. It
j was a morning marked by one of those
wet, clinging snows of late Spring, but
tlie people of the city more than made
lip for tho weather by turning out by
thousands by ringing of bells and
blowings of whistles. The Governor's
Troop left about 7.20 o'clock in tho
morning, entraining before daylight,
and Company D was escorted to the
station by Governor Hastings and
many prominent men about 8 o'clock.
L>otli organizations went to Mt. Gret
na, which will probably be the mobili
zation point again, as it has been of
ficially designated as such. However,
Adjutant General Stewart says that
all depends upon what the government
I orders. The infantrymen were mus
tered into the United States service
at Mt. Gretna on May 12. after being
put through examination and training
at Camp Hastings, and the troop was
mustered In a day later. The two
organizations went to Camp Alger, the
troop later going to Xewport News
and thence to Porto Kico with Miles,
while the Eighth came back into
Pennsylvania with the Second Army
Corps and encamped at Camp Meade
until it went South in the Fall. Com
pany I, of the Fourth, went into the
Federal service in June, when four
companies were added to Colonel
Case's command. It got to Porto Rico
Case's command. It got to Porto Rico.
It is interesting to note that the
plans made call for the taking In of
the Pennsylvania regiments, as was
done in the Spanish War, keeping the
State name and organization, al
though, of course, the mustering is apt
to drop out a number of men. If the
Eighth Infuntry and Second Squadron
of Cavalry are summoned for duty
both will be recruited to war strength,
which will mean that they will have
quite a few places to fill and young
men anxious for laurels will be able
to gratify them. Should there be aj
call for State troops not only will liar
risburg give a number, but there will
be numerous men on Capitol Hill who
are connected with the organizations
of the Guard, among them Auditor
General A. W. Powell and Major E.
M. Yale, of the State Public Service
Commission.
One of the oddest of the petitions
filed at the Capitol for public office
appeared yesterday when a man from
the coal regions tiled a paper with the
word "white" written after his name.
His name was a foreign one, redolent
of Poland, and just why he placed the
color after it no one could say. It was
the firs ttime anything of the kind had
been done.
Lots of war talk was heard about
the city yesterday and to-day, and the
youngsters appeared to catch the fever
promptly. Late yesterday afternoon
half a dozen kids were marching
arc-und in the rain with broomsticks
and going through evolutions. When
asked what was doing they said that
they were "drilling to fight Greasers."
Patriotism starts at an early age and
on slight provocation in Harrisburg.
It would be interesting to hear from
survivors of the Mexican War, if there
are any living in Harrisburg or its vi
cinity, just now. These veterans are
few and far between, the deaths of a
number having been chronicled lately.
The Americans, It will be remembered,
took Vera Cruz.
Usually the reading of the minutes
of a previous meeting is the driest
part of any program. Not so, how
ever, in the case of the Harrisburg
Rotary Club, Howard C. Fry, the
well-known coalman, is secretary of
that organization and his minutes are
so far out of the ordinary that the
members look forward to them with
keen interest. Mr. Fry has developed
a literary style that is the Joy of the
members. His friends are urging him
to write a series of short personal es
says for publication in the Tacho
graph, the original club publication,
and if he consents Walt Mason, Will
'lrwin and Sam Blythe will have to
'look to their laurels, for Fry can take
ias many liberties and get away with
I the same as any one of those slingers
| of picturesque English.
-Misfortune has set hard on men
well known ir the United Evangelical
Church within the past year. The ill
ness of Bishop Swengle, In Dallas,
Oregon, recalls the fact that his own
home in Harrisburg is under quaran
tine and one of the members of his
family is very ill with German
measles. Bishop Swengle's cancella
tion of his Pacific coast dates falls
just a year after a similar action on
the part of Bishop AN'. H. Fouke, for
merly of Harrisburg; following tho
death of his wife and daughter within
♦he space of a very few months. Dr.
C. Newton Dubs, also at one time a
resident of this city, and now head of
the United Evangelical mission work
In China, is at present on his way from
Shanghai to the mission headquarters
nt Changsha with the body of his wife,
who died in a hospital at the former
city some weeks ago. Bishop Dubs, h's
father, is just recovering from a very
protracted illness.

[From the Erie Dispatch.]
Those who saw Mai tin Brumbaugh
yesterday agreed that he surely looks
good. He has the appearance of a
strong man, an intelligent leader ana
a fearless exponent of the public wel
fare. After meeting a man like him,
one would not be in the least bit afraid
to entrust the guidance of the affairs
of the Commonwealth into his hands
His record shows, also that he has
those qualities which his splendid ap
pearance indicates.

PENROSE ENTERS
MONSTER PETITION
All Records Broken by the Papers
Entered For the Senator's
Renomination
BIG BRUMBAUGH PAPERS
Trexler Files Papers With Every
Lehigh Minister on the
List To-day
The greatest petition ever filed since
the practice of filing nominating Pa
pers in advance of the primary was
prescribed by law was entered at the
Capitol shortly before midnight in be
half of United States Senator Boies
Penrose. It was proof conclusive of
an advocacy of his candidacy against
which not even the snorting of the or
gans of the Democratic machine can
be raised.
On one batch of the papers were the
names of 100,000 residents of his home
city of Philadelphia. Papers from
sixty-six other counties contained
65.000 additional names and it was
stated that by to-night over 50.000
more names would be put on file. The
Penrose petition made the Democratic
scouts weary when they sighted it.
The papers for Dr. Martin G. Brum
baugh, Republican candidate for Gov
ernor, were filed shortly before the
Penrose papers. They contained 65,000
names from all over the State and
15,000 more from Philadelphia alone
will be put on record.
The rush to file nominating papers
kept up until midnight last night and
it is expected that by the time the
office of the Secretary

strong support of their can
didate right In the home Trexler's
district of Thomas J. Pra- Petitions
ther, of Meadville, whose Notable
candidacy was announced
the other day. A paper
signed by many prominent lawyers
and bankers of Crawford county was
entered this morning and with it were
papers signed by Judge George S.
Criswell and most of the members of
the bar of the adjoining county of
Venango; from McKean county, signed
by Judge Bouton and many lawyers
and business men; from Mercer,
signed by many lawyers; three from
Warren county and others from But
ler. Lawrence and others in the vicin

Trexler from Washington. Jefferson,
Blair, Philadelphia. Adams, headed by
Professor J. A. Slngmaster. of the
seminary; Lebanon, with G. H. Moyer
and many prominent men supplement
ing that filed yesterday, and Cumber
land. The most remarkable of all
these petitions, which were filed In
addition to the dozens already filed,
was from Lehigh county. It contains
the names of seventy-seven men, all
clergymen. No paper like It has ever
been filed at the Capitol and it Is a
remarkable tribute to Judge Trexler's
standing. Bishop Talbot. President
Haas, of Muhlenburg College, and min
isters of every denomination signed
the paper.

—Perhaps it will be admitted in
Market Square that Penrose's petitions
break a record.
—That machine slate meeting in
the Democratic Club of Philadelphia
seems to have created more stir here

—Judge Trexler appears to have
many and strong friends all over the
State.
—Manufacturers qf Northampton
strongly urge support of Penrose.
—Palmer and McCormick are going
ito tour Montgomery county to-day
and to-morrow.
—They are now talking about audit
ing the expense account of Mavor Jer
myn, of Scranton.
—lt's a little late for the Palmer-
MeCormick league to be decrving a
mud-slinging campaign.
According to Rviin men. the mud
slinging started in Market Square
—The row in the State Bull Moos
ers. especially the assaults against the
Van Valkenburg faction, are making
the adherents of the party here rather
nervous.
—Trexler's friends appear to have
been busy right in Prather's home dis
trict.

, had ever undertaken the booming of
I candidates for nonpartisan nomi-
I nations the way the Democratic State
headquarters is doing there would
| have been wails from Market Square.
WHEN YOU GUESS RIGHT
| When you guess right, you are a
.great man. When you guess wrong,
you are a dub.
Fortunately for the heirs of D. Og
den Mills, he made more good guesses
than poor guesses, hence their $35,-
j 000,000. But he made a great many
bad guesses at that.
I count upward of 450,000 shares of
various stocks which the appraisers of
his estate say are worthless. Mr. Mills
received much credit for his long
|headedness in getting a big slice of
the renowned Comstock 'silver mines.
That was his best guess.
But the world never heard of his
124,000 shares of valueless Bessemer
Consolidated and his 115,000 shares of
worthless British Guiana Gold Min
ing or his 102,000 shares of Brunswick
Consolidated, which are not worth a
street car fare.
James Keene, the renowned Wall
street operator, said the man who
could guess right four times out of
seven was sure to win In the stock
market.
It is like that in business. Mills
guessed atrociously In many Instances,
but he made up for It and more by
making good guesses that netted him
more money than Croesus ever saw
"Glraid" in Philadelphia Ledger. j
