POLITICS AND BrSINESS
THE Pennsylvania Steel Company
Is a fine example right here at
home of the direful effects of
Democratic business tinkering
at Washington. The company earned
8.08 per cent, last year on its preferred
stpok compared with 5.1 per cent in
1012. The last half of the year was
so dull that it wiped out the greater
part of the profits of the first half. The
Maryland Steel Company's plant was
closed down the first of December on
account of lack of rail orders. In his
remarlis to the shareholders President
Felton stated that not only was the
deorease in profits due to lack of or
ders, but to the higher cost of produc
tion and lower prices. Prices lor steel
for the Inst six or eight months are
close to cost for even the most modern
and economical plants.
Democrats tell us that the Wilson
Administration is not responsible for
this condition. But isn't it peculiar
that mills are closed, workmen are
thrown out of employment and busi
ness In general goes to rot every time
the Democratic party has an oppor
tunity to put its policies into effect?
And isn't It strange, if politics has no
effect on business, that the oountry Is
generally prosperous when the Re
publican party is in control? There
would seem to be subject for a little
experimenting here that the voter
should not neglect at the polls next
November.
Judge Witmer this week fined a man
for shooting a skunk In the Gettysburg
Government reservation, declaring
"though a skunk be a skunk the law is
still the law." But still It's a question
whether the culprit shouldn't have been
rewarded, in the opinion of those who
know the skunk better than they do
the law.
GUN-MUZZLE- DIPLOMACY
HE United States needs at Wash-
Tington more of the type of diplo
macy displayed by Great Britain
yesterday in dealing with Haiti.
The English government had de
manded that the Haitian government
reimburse an English subjeot to the
amount of $62,000 for property wan
tonly destroyed. The Haitian govern
ment refused. The English foreign
office set 6 o'clock last evening as the
time for payment of the money, the
penalty for continued refusal to be
the taking over of a customs house.
Needless to say, the sum demanded
was handed over at the hour named.
How different has been the policy
ot President Wilson with respect to
Mexico. A similar attitude toward
Huerta, following his assumption of
power, would have placed this country
on a very different footing in its rela
tions to Mexico and its dictator, and
would have prevented much of the
embarrassment of the past few
months, to say nothing of millions of
dollars property loss to American oiti
sens in Mexico and the death under
mysterious circumstances of Ameri
cans who have fallen under the dis
pleasure of Huerta.
Lieutenant Becker, the dispatches
state, has asked to be placed in the
upper tier of cells in the Tombs to es
cape being struck with crockery that
other prisoners who have a spite at him
throw at him while he is exercising in
the hall. This is a plain case of
Becker's trying to get "from under"
the "man higher up."
BACKYARD GARDENS
THE Harrisburg Civic Club never
attempted, in all its active and
useful career, a better piece of
constructive work than the
backyard flower garden contest it has
organized for the coming season. Its
popularity is attested by the fact that
the remarkably large number of 540
boys and girls have entered.
This means that 540 backyards in
Harrisburg, in a measure, at le&st, will
be redeemed from the waste places
and made to bloom like the proverbial
oasis in the desert. In truth each will
ba an oasis In its own particular little
desert, for the backyard* Harris
burg are notorious for their neglect
and unsightliness.
Time was, away hack in the days
when Harrishiurg was no more than
«n ovar-grown country town, that the
THURSDAY EVENING,
resident who neglected to whitewash
his fence and plant seeds In the
Springtime was regarded with suspi
cion by his neighbors and lost prestige
in the community. Such a one »lld
not stand well with the great majority
who took it for granted that a family
that wi.s content t live In slovenly
surroundings was all too likely to be
equally careless of its habits of life.
Hut with the growth of the city, the
crowding together of the houses and
the steady trend toward a "hurry-up"
mode of living, the backyard fell into
neglect until to-day, with a compara
tively few very laudable exceptions, it
has become the abiding place of the
tramp cat. the rusty tin can and the
garbage pall.
Now comes the Civic Club to sow
the seeds of a renewed civic pride and
Just as a little leaven leaventh the
whole lump, so will these 640 beauti
fied backyards prompt the making of
flower beds broadcast throughout the
city. This aside from the very bene
ficial effect of teaching children the
gentle and wholesome art of growing
things.
THE HABIT-FORMING DRUG LAW
AT the suggestion of Dr. Samuel
Z. Shope, the Medical Club of
Harrlsburg has passed a series
of resolutions asking the United
States Congress to vote down certain
amendments to the bill now before
J that body having for its purpose the
restriction of the sale of habit-forming
| drugs.
i The club believes that the amend
ments would be of little value In car
rying out the objects of the measure
and would work a severe hardship
upon suffering humanity. The bill as
amended would forbid the physician
from prescribing narcotics except for
administration by him personally to
the patient. The club believes that
"if this amendment is accepted it be
comes an offense against Federal law
for the doctor to send a cough tablet,
a throat lozenge, an antispasmodic for
asthma, or an anodyne for the relief
of diarrhea, neuralgia or any other
I painful condition to a patient through
a third person; and it is a serious
question whether he can legally place
such remedies in the patient's own
hands or that of a nurse to be admin
istered to the patient in the absence
of the physician."
The club also believes that the bill
as amended discriminates against the
physician in favor of the druggist by
compelling him to keep a written
record of every dose of medicine con
taining narcotics administered.
Possibly the Harrisburg physicians
are right. Some times it is possible
to make a law so strict as to be un
enforclble or bad In its effects if en
forced. Too stringent restrictions as
applied to physicians may be harmful,
but on the other hand the doctors have
themselves to thank for the present
wave of public feeling against the in
discriminate use of. habit-forming
drugs, and it Is agreeable to note that
they favor legal restrlctidn of the sale
of such.
Hundreds of "drug-fiends" all over
this country owe their present degra
dation to the carelessness of their fam
ily doctors. Opium and kindred medi
cines are not remedies. They are pain
killers—rather pain-soothers, for the
pain comes back when the effects of
the drug wear off. They are Intended
for use in rare instances only. Much
better to bear the suffering of cramps,
or headaches or similar discomforts
than to win temporary relief by use of
medicines that do not cure and merely
deaden. The wise physician does not
treat symptoms, but causes, and pains
are merely symptoms. Of course, there
are many times when the narcotic is
necessary, but It should be given in
very small doses and prescribed m
very small quantities, and It should be
made necessary for the physician to
re-write the prescription every time it
is to be filled. Too many physicians—
although the number of such is hap
pily on the decrease—are only too
ready with the "dope bottle."
STANDING TOGETHER
IN his speech before the manufac
turers who met at the offices of the
C. Day Rudy Company yesterday to
consider ways and means of bring
ing business back to that high state of
prosperity from which it has drifted
under the Wilson administration, S. F.
Dunkle, of the Harrisburg Manufac
turing and Boiler Company, summed
up in a single paragraph the whole
political situation as it applies to the
attitude of Republicans with relation
to the coming elections when he said:
We in Pennsylvania have passed
through the fire and we are the
better for it. We now see issues
clearly, and those of us who were
arrayed one against another on
personal grounds are prepared to
give and take in order that we mav
stand shoulder to shoulder for the
preservation of those political prin
ciples which are equally dear to all
of us.
Mr. Dunkle \ was frankly and
avowedly of the opinion that con
ditions in the national capital make it
imperative that Pennsylvania be rep
resented by an able, experienced man
of strong.protective tariff principles in
the Senate, and he naturally turned
toward Senator Penrose. But personal
preference aside, it is true that the
Republicans of Pennsylvania have
"passed through the fire" and have
been united anew by the strong ties
of adversity. Pennsylvania is an over
whelmingly Republican State. Its in
terests have always been and will
always be identical with the principles
of the Republican party. When the
Republicans are in control at Wash
ington we of the Keystone State are
prosperous and enjoying good govern
ment. When the Democrats are in
control we suffer; times are bad for
the business man and the working
man alike.
The great majority of our people,
who go to make up the rank and file
of the Republican party, realize this
as never before. They are just now
engaged in a primary contest, it Is
true, but it is a very clean, clear-cut
contest, with none of the bitterness
and personalities that mark the
free-for-all between the Ryan and
McCormlck -factions on the Demo
cratic side. As Mr. Dunkle says, Penn
sylvania Rttpublic&os aio united, and
that is the big difference between them j
and the Democrats. Whomsoever may
be nominated at the primaries by the
Republicans will receive the solid sup
port of the whole party, but the
Democratic nominees, whoever they
may be, will continue to be the can
didates of a faction.
1 EVENING CHAT 1
Commencement of the railroad im
provements along Mulberry street is
being awaited by a number of Harris
burgers with considerable interest be
cause it will be the inauguration of
what will be a notable change in the
character of the district below Chest
nut street. Ever since the year of the
Dauphin county centennial, or there
abouts, people have been predicting
that Second and other streets between
Chestnut and Vine were going to be
the center of a big warehouse and
wholesale business. The movement
of warehouses to that district appears
to have started, judging from the big
establishments already in business or
being erected in Second street, but the
development has been slow and people
have been rather cautious about doing
much owing to the frequent holdups
of the railroad plans, IN'OW that the
subways are to be constructed and the
State has authorized the start of the
addition to the bridge folks can be
assured of the manner in which the
district is to be laid- out and projects
can be undertaken. Front street, of
course, will not be changed, the river
front settling but Second will
soon take on a new lease of business
life, fronting as it will a solid two
blocks of railroad buildings and being
the thoroughfare for all of the freight
deliveries. Meadow lane will be wiped
out and the very oldest part of Harris
burg will retake its place in business.
Next Monday will lie the ninth anni
versary of the famous Lochiel wreck
and according: to its custom the Penn
sylvania Railroad will place tiowers
on the graves of the unknown dead
who are buried here. The funerals of
the unsnown took place from Market
Square Church after one of the most
impressive services ever held in the
city, many prominent men attending
them.
Harrisburg educators and many in
terested in school affairs will be inter
ested to learn that Dr. Samuel Hamil
ton has been re-elected superintendent
of the schools of Allegheny county after
a service of twenty-eight years in that
position. The election at Pittsburgh
on Tuesday was unanimous. Dr. Ham
ilton has served as president of the
State Educational Association and on
all of its committees, while he had
upon a number of occasions spoken at
meetings in this city. Like Dr. Martin
G, Brumbaugh, he has been a tower
of educational strength and his work
is known beyond the borders of the
State.
It is not generally known that Ly
man D. Gilbert, who was buried yes
terday after a long life spent in Har
risburg, was one of the greatest lovers
of the Susquehanna. Born along its
banks, he used to delight to explore it
in his younger days and to tell of its
beauties as he passed the meridian of
"*e. \\ ith John. B. McPherson, now
one of the judges of the federal court,
Mr. Gilbert owned the (irst scull to
be used on the Susquehanna. After
he returned to the city front college
Jir Gilbert maintained the interest he
had felt in the river as a boy and
brought here the first of the light craft
that used to be used in races along the
stream. It was quite a curiosity in
those days and was tho predecessor of
the craft that twenty years ago were
not an uncommon sight.
Dr. E. N. Kremer, pastor
of Reformed Salem Church, will go
to the general synod at Lancaster next
week with particular interest because
it is just forty-nine years since he
graduated from Franklin and Marshall
College in that city. Dr. Kremer is
looking forward to attending the com
mencement next year when his golden
anniversary will be celebrated. Dr
Kremer has represented his church at
a number of meetings of the svnod.
n. ?. work on the reconstruction of
the line of the Harrisburg Railway
Company along Derry street attracts
many sightseers and the men who run
the concrete mixers and other para
phernalia'of the construction gang
have a good many "assistants" from
the people who gather about,
evening the men worked until late and
people for blocks around came to see
the men. One man stepped up and
told a man stamping concrete that he
was not doing it right. The man
promptly told him to chase himself
The "assistant" got the loan of a
stamper and showed the man how he
would do it. It happened to be a
concrete engineer.
Painting of the benches in the
Riverside Park last night caused an
overcrowding of the benches in Capi
tol Park. The city benches were given
new coats or green and the spoony
ones, who read the newspapers, head
ed for the State park. As a result he
fore 8.30 every bench was filled and
those in the more secluded sections
had a couple of pairs. Some pairs
were even noticed sitting on the gran
ite steps to the Capitol.

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
DAUPHIN LEAGUE
GIVES RYAN BOOM
Takes Action Just as McCormick
Returns From the Juniata \
Valley Tour
BONNIWELL RAPS CREASY
New Interchange of Remarks by
the Spitfires of the Oppos
ing Factions .
New and interestins moves were
made last night in the family war
which Is splitting the Pennsylvania
Democracy and all of them Indicate
that there will be more entertainment
to come.
The Dauphin County Democratic
League celebrated the return of Vance
C. McCormick and his caravan from a
tour of the Juniata Valley cpunties by
adopting strong resolutions in favor
of the nomination of Michael J. Ryan,
of Philadelphia, for Governor. The
resolutions were long as well as strong
and set forth the fact that Mr. Ryan
had always been a Democrat and that
Mr. McCormick had been a party
bolter. Other gentle things were said
about the Harrisburger by this organ
ization of men opposed to him in his
own county. A. W. Hartman, presi
dent of the league, made a rip-snorting
speech in which he denounced McCor
mick as being active in the party only
when his own ambitions were con
cerned.
William K. Meyers, candidate for
nomination for Congress-at-large, was
given an ovation when he spoke on
the campaign and was promised en
thusiastic support. The Democratic
clubs all over the city will support
Mr. Meyers regardless of how they
feel on the gubernatorial row.
While the McCormick caravan was
eating dinner here the Ryan aggre
gation was holding forth at Reading
and hearing predictions that
Ryan would carry that city,
Hroßrh although the county is a
Grows toss-up. Tt was claimed for
Daily HcCormick a week ago.
Ryan assailed the men fight-
ing him and Judge Bonni
well added some additional hot shot
to what he has fired at '"Farmer"
Creasy. The McCormick caravan ap
peared tired after its visit to Juniata
Valley towns, where its visits were
scheduled during: court week so that
crowds would he found. At Reading
last night Ryan railed against Palmer,
Creasy and Berry for their hypocrisy
in having accepted financial assistance
from Colonel Guffey and Senator J. K.
P. Hall and now would ride into power
and place hy denouncing their former
benefactors. "If I ever accepted one
dollar of the money of these men,"
said Ryan, "my tongue would drop
from my mouth before I uttered a
word against them."
Judge Bonniwell at Reading; last
night answered and denied the charges
of William T. Creasy.
In this connection he
cited Creasy's opinion Bonnhvell
of him in 191 .*? In the Turns Light
form of the following On Creasy
letter: *
"Catawissa, Pa., June 12, 191-R.
"Eugene C. Bonniwell,
Philadelphia, Pa.:
"My Dear Friend Bonniwell—Tour
letter arrived in my absence. In reply
will say that 1 would be pleased to see
you receive the appointment of judge
for the Kastern District of Pennsyl
vania.
"I am loathe to write- my recom
mendations to the President, as they
seem not to get any further than to
Mr. Tumulty; but, should you desire
it. I will cheerfully write one for you.
Respectfully yours,
"WILLIAM T. CREASY."
Then the judge said: "I notify you
now that unless you retract your slan
ders that I shall proceed to make pub
lic your financial dealings and your
record in the Legislature in such
fashion as will drive you into the ob
scurity that the people of your district
intended you should be when they re
pudiated you for State senator."
I POLITICAL SIDELIGHTS
—The dictionary is being worked to
find words for the rival Democrats to
hurl at each other.
—Judge Bonniwell remarked the
other evening that it could be shown
that Creasy was once "a fawning de
pendent" on certain Democrats he now
denounces.
—The McCormick caravan is headed
into the post office belt of York and
Adams counties to-day.
—Ryan is campaigning in Mont
gomery county to-day and will be in
Norristown to-niKht. McCormick is
going there Saturday.
—When It comes down to making
slates certain men now on the stump
for Democratic votes appear to have
shown much skill, especially In getting
themselves on the slates.
—Oh! Only wait until the expense
accounts are filed for the guberna
torial primary campaign.
—A whole day has passed without
a squeak from the Pa-Mc league.
—Dlmmlck is on his way into Bed
ford and Somerset.
—Dean Lewis is making speeches
rapping the Supreme Court.
—Pinchot plans a motor car tour to
five counties.
—"Big Bill" Hollenback, the foot
ball star of State College, is out in a
letter favoring Penrose.
—There may be idle machine's in
industrial plants due to the Demo
cratic tariff, but there is no sign of
idleness about the well oiled Demo
cratic machine.
—Judge Bonniwell and 'Farmer"
keep on saying things about . each
other.
—lt sounds rather strange to
the men on the White House
talking about other parties violating
the spirit of the primary law.
| —The Democratic State bosses flg
ure out that they can do anything and
say it is proper, but that such things
done by other men in the past are ab
horrent.
—Creasy was not featured very
much by the caravaneers yesterday.
—lt must have been funny yester
day to hear the two Democratic bosses
telling the Juniata Valley folks that
the day of bosslsm is over in the Dem
ocratic party.
—The Palmer-McCormick slate was
not only dictated at Washington in
defiance and violation of the spirit of
the primary law of Pennsylvania, but
by a man who is not even a resident
of the State.
—The chief thing of Interest about
the McCormick caravan trip yesterday
was the number of prominent Demo
crats who did not turn out.
WILSON DIPLOMACY

Abjdulla Sada, Just back in New York

"BOOST"
By Wins Dinger
George Heckert's crew of baseball
playerH
Came up here yesterday,
They won the game and back to York
Proceeded straigrhtaway.
But everyone who saw the game
Went home quite satisfied.
Because class A baseball had been
By both the teams supplied.
And what if one game Was lost.
Who knows but what to-day
Our team will turn the trick at York
And bring the game away.
One team must loose, they both can't
go
As victors to the roost.
And if the home team loses out
Don't be a knocker—boost.
The game that's lost to-day is gone.
So let's forget it, and
Assist the boys In future games
By giving them the hand.
,
baseball, as all things else,
A 'man will do his best.
If h*'s encouraged Just a bit,
\V|ien he's put to the test. j

The Colorado situation evidently
needs a strong hand. It is to be hoped
that some honest, competent and well
informed historian will tell the country
the true story of this disgraceful inci
dent In the history of an American
Commonwealth. As for young Mr.
Rockefeller, he might as well stop his
habit of mouthing moral platitudes.—

Married men need not join the mili

It is fitting indeed that clean-up
week should be preceded by a go-to
church Sunday, for literally then clean
liness is next to godliness and the
proper order is followed. Of course,
this is a mere coincidence, but both
projects are quite exemplary and both
will be ma'de successful by Just a little
good-natured co-operation on the part
of everybody. Cleanliness is essential
to health, and this is true whether ap
plication of the rule is made to the
mental or the physical side.—Wllllams
port Sun.
Again some Congressman has faintly
broached the subject of a nation-wide
campaign for the conservation of life
and health. He revives the agitation,
in a mild way, in favor of the creation
of a national department of health or
the consolidation of the existing agen
cies under one head, so that they may
work more effectively.—Wllkes-Barr'e
