PENROSE DEMANDS
BUSINESS SAFETY
Asks That Attacks and Harass
ment of Business by Adminis
tration Cease
Sf*cini to The Telegraph
Pittsburgh, April 28.—Declarations
that harassing attacks on business
must cease were made by Senator
Boies Penrose at the Americus Club
dinner last night and cheered to the
echo. The Senator remarked on the
absence of confidence and charged
that the Democratic party had bun
gled.
Senator Penrose in part said:
"Probably in no other country in
the world in time of peace has the
business, commercial and industrial
system received the rude assaults and
attacks to which our American busi
ness, commercial and industrial sys
tem has been exposed. It is even
doubtful whether in ordinary civilized
warfare business could have been more
ruthlessly shaken. It is extraordinary
that we have survived and that the
country is even enjoying a measure
of prosperity.
"Not only has much been done al
ready to undermine the foundations of
prosperity, but the uncertainty as to
what may be in store tends still fur
ther to retard and ourtail all enter
prise. Confidence is absent.
"We are having too much govern
ment from Washington. Congress has
presented to it more bills at each ses
sion than a generation oould dispose
of. We are suffering from excessive
legislation and we are not governed
by a majority of the people."
The Senator then reviewed the
method of amending the Constitution,
each State having one vote, and showed
that five large States have a larger
voting population than thirty-six that
might amend the Constitution to the
serious disadvantage of the whole
people.
Continuing, he among other things
said:
"We were assured before the last
presidential election by the leaders of
the party now in power, and by the
standard-bearer of that party espec
ially, that no legitimate business in
terest would suffer In the revision of
the tariff. So gTeat had been our
prosperity, and for so long a period
had It endured, that the majority of
the electors forget the experience of
the past prior to 1896. It was the
general opinion among the heads of
industries and among the employes
that the foundations of our industrial
greatness were so deeply laid that no
ordinary adverse legislation couid
c-hoke or undermine them.
"Lulled Into a sense of security by
the assurances of political leaders the
great Republican party, under which
the country had reached such a height
of prosperity, became divided for the
time being and the Democratic party
■was again restored to power without
any great amount of apprehension.
The desire which always prevails for
a change contributed to the result
New Tariff a Menace
"Notwithstanding the pre-election
assurances, however, the country soon
awoke to the fact that the tariff was
being revised upon very radical free
trade lines and with a strong sectional
bias; and we are now realizing an In
dustrial depression, not sudden and
precipitate, as has happened often
heretofore under like conditions, hut
ns sure and as steady in its progress
in its destructive course as the de
scent of a glacier on the mountain
side.
"Innumerable investigations have
introduced an espionage into every
business house and every corporation
office such as= hardly would have been
tolerated in the darkest days of Rus
sian despotism.
"A multitude of bills are pending in
Congress regulating and curtailing- in
every conceivable way and degree the
activities of business. Some of them
are part of the plans of the Demo
cratic majority controlling the gov
ernment for enactment into law.
Much legislation is inevitable, and the
uncertainty of more to come has near
ly paralyzed enterprise in the United
States to-day."
In closing an eloquent tribute to
Grant, Senator Penrose said:
"How fortunate it was for the Re
public to have, at a time which seemed
to be Its death agony, a commander

M'DEVITT SURPRISES
THE FIRSTHIIGHTERS
He Is a Monologuist of No Mean
Ability and Keeps Things
Moving All the Time
"Bueh" McDevitt was a hobo, a
"traveling man", he terms it. "Butch"
McDevitt was a millionaire for a day.
"Butch" McDevitt was an alleged
statesman with the ambition to pre
sent a statue of himself to the United
States. And now "Butch" McDevitt
is an actor.
"Butch" opened a week's engage
ment at the Orphenm theater yester
day and It must be said for him that
he surprised the regular Monday,
crowds. He appears in a monologue,
following the showing of moving pic
tures made of his trip to Washington
when he attempted to have Congress
accept his statue. "Butch" is natur
ally funny and the dozens of stories he
tells about himself keeps the audience
in almost continuous laughter. "But
ch" brought his statue to Harrisburg
to help him In his first appearance in
vaudeville.
The Orpheum bill, as a whole is
good this week. Dunbar's band of
| nine men is perhaps the best musical
act of its kind seen here for a long
time. Catchy popular airs and stan
dard marches make up the program.
The band men had a difficult time se
parating themselves from the audience
last night and the separation was only
effected after the introduction to the
following act had been stopped sev
eral times.
Thea Lelghtner and Dolly Jordon,
the former a Harrisburg girl, make a
distinct hit with' the audience, not be
cause of their voices, however. It is
purely the manner In which they offer
their songs.
Alexander Brothers, billed as the
world's greatest ball bouncers, open
the show and introduce a number of
new feats in their line. An Italian Min
strels, Webb and Burns have few
equals on the vaudeville stage. Maria
Lo and Company present a number of
living tableaux, depicting the most
famous Dresden and other China.
The living models are well fitted for
their respective parts, and their work
Is among the best ever seen here. The
other numbers include moving pic
tures and Wlllard and Bond In "De
tectivlsm."

Husband a Drunkard;
Wife Will Get $5,000
Washington, D. C., April 2 B.—Find
ing no constitutional objection to a
law making saloonkeepers liable for
damages resulting from their sale ol
liquor, the Supreme Court to-day dis
missed the appeal of Louis W. Prenica, j
a saloonkeeper, of Nebraska City, Neb.,
from a judgment of the Nebraska
courts holding him liable in the sum
of $5,000 to Mrs. May Bulger for her
husband becoming a habitual drunk
ard.
A Nebraska law gives the wife and
children of men who become habitual
drunkards an action against saloon
keepers who sell them liquor. Mrs.
Bulger got verdicts against saloon
keepers who had sold liquor to her
husband, a paperhanger, and an ap
peal was taken by Prenica and his
bondsmen.

IF SKIN BREAKS
OUT AND ITCHES
APPLY SULPHUR
Use it like a cold cream and dry
Eczema eruptions
right up.
The moment you apply bold-sulphur
to an itching or broken-out skin, the
itching stops and healing begins, says
a renowned dermatologist.
Thir remarkable sulphur made into
a thicrf cream effects such prompt re
lief. even in aggravated Eczema, that
it is a never-ending source of amaze
ment to physicians.
For many years bold-sulphur has
occupied a secure position in the treat
ment of cutaneous eruptions by rea
son of its cooling, parasite-destroying
properties, and nothing lias ever been
found to take its plac > in relieving
irritable and intlammal try affections
of the skin. While not always es
tablishing a permanent cure, yet, in
every instance, it immediately subdues
the itching irritation and heals the
Eczema right up and It is often years
later before any eruption again mani
fests itself.
Any good pharmacist will supply an
ounce of bold-sulphur cream, which
should be applied to the afTected parts
like the ordinary cold creams. It isn't
unpleasant and the prompt relief af
forded is very welcome, particularly
when the Eczema is accompanied with
torturous itching. This is published
for Walter Luther Dodge Co., Cin
cinnati, Ohio.
