ELIMINATING HTKRTA
THE most intereating development
of the Mexican controversy Is
the proposal of the mediators
that Huerta step down and out.
No doubt the elimination of the dic
tator tinder certain circumstances
would go a long way toward establish
ing at least temporary peace in Mexico,
but It would not solve all the prob
lems that confront that troubled
country under present conditions. It
would result immediately In a new
scramble for power In which Villa,
Carranza, Zappata and the remnants
of the Huerta faction would be fac
tors.
But. first of all, Huerta's opinion in
the matter must be taken into con
sideration. It must be realized that
Huerta is a desperate man, playing for
high stakes. His methods in the past
have been those of the ruthless buc
caneer, with thought only for the suc
cess of his own enterprises and hold
ing- his life very lightly in the balance
where his ambitions were seriously
concerned. He has lived in an atmos
phere of constant peril to maintain
his place in Mexican affairs and it is
not to be presumed that he will re
linquish witho it contention that which
he has striven so vigorously to win.
If It is to be a mere matter of trad
ing Huerta for A'illa, then the march
to Mexico City may as well be started,
for Villa in the capital will be no bet
ter than Huerta. Instead of simplify
ing the Mexican situation, the demand
for the retirement of Huerta promises
only to tend toward further complica
tion.
Labor controversies are always re
grettable. and as Harrlsburg has been
remarkably free from differences be
tween employers and employes it is
generally believed the railroad mis
understanding will soon be adjusted
satisfactorily.
TWO CANDIDATES
UNFORTUNATELY for the Har
rieburg candidate of the Dem
ocracy for Governor, the appeal
in his behalf for local support!
on the score of pride for the home
candidate is falling more or less flat
among his neighbors by reason of the
fact that his newspaper has studiously
avoided any reference to the nonpar
tisan candidacy of President Judge
Kunkel for the Supreme Court, not
withstanding the fact that a large non
partisan meeting of the friends of
Judge Kunkel was held weeks ago,
when he was given unanimous en
dorsement, and the further fact that
the Harrlsburg candidate for high ju
dicial honors is being supported with
out regard to party affiliations. It is
largely on account of this attitude of
the McCormick newspaper that ap
peals for support of its owner on the
score of neigliborllness has had no re
sponse.
Isn't it about time for business men
and workingmen and professional men
and the people generally to administer
a lasting rebuke to the theorists and
political mountebanks who have had the
stage so long in this country. What is
needed most of all is peace and pros
perity.
HIGH SCHOOL MKET
THERE will be a fine turnout of
the high school boys and girls
of Pennsylvania at the annual
high school track meet at Island
Park next Saturday. Already from
twelve to fourteen schools have en
tered for the various events of the
meet and the Harrlsburg Track Ath
letic Committee is rapidly completing
the arrangements. Superintendent of
Parks Taylor, with his engineer, Mr.
Hoffert, is co-operating with the
committee in placing the track and the
grounds in the best possible shape for
the hundreds of young athletes who
will be here for the day's program.
One of the interesting features of the
occasion is the rivalry for the shield,
which becomes tho permanent pos
session of the team winning it three
years. Already the Central Manual of
Philadelphia and Reading teams havw
each won the shield two years and the
Central High. Harrisburg, and Steel
ton have each won it once, and there
is natural interest in the result of the
competition this year. Rut there is a
n«w Richmond in the ileJd In tho Tech-
THURSDAY EVENING,
nical High School team, which Is said
to be a very promising aggregation of
athletes. Should Tech win the shield
the rivalry will he oven more Intense
hereafter.
The annual high school events have
come to be regarded as the most in
teresting athletic contests of the year
and all of Harrlsburg will turn out
to see the runners and jumpers and
hanimerthrowers and other athletes
do their stunts. All that is necessary
to assure a successful meet Is a little
co-operation on the part of Jupiter
Pluvlus.
Every paved street In this city must
be in fine shape before the big fire
men's convention, and as City Commis
sioner "Billy" Lynch is an old fire
fighter himself, he will see to it that
the Harrlsburg streets are all right.

P.VRROT CRY
THERE r.e hosiery and knit goods
factories in Harrisburg and
throughout Central Pennsylva
nia. Employes of these plants
are watching the operation of the
Wilson free trade policy with increas
ing contempt for an administration
that will deliberately destroy Ameri
can industry. Commenting on the sit
uation, the Philadelphia Public Ledger
says:
When the hosiery and knit goods
manufacturers told Congress that a
reduction in the tariff on their pro
duct would seriously injure their
business and benefit no one but the
foreigners, the Democratic Con
gressmen derided them. The tariff
was to be reduced at all hazards
and the manufacturers must sub
mit. They have had to submit, but,
to Judge from the remarks of those
attending the convention of the
National Association of Hosiery
and Underwear Manufacturers this
week, they do not propose to sub
mit tamely. The president of the
association expressed the general
sentiment when he said that they
should organize and work to elect
a protection Congress that will
keep ruin from their mills.
The manufacturers are not con
tent with generalizing. They sub
mit facts in support of their con
tention that their business has been
injured. One man. who has never
run his factory on half time save
during one year of Cleveland's sec
ond administration, asserts that he
Is now confronted by a similar
slump In business. The owner of
another mill sold out his machinery
and closed, rather than attempt to
do business under the existing
tariff. Other manufacturers state
that many hosiery buyers, accus
tomed to make heavy purchases in
May and June, are in Germany
seeking to make there the pur
chases they usually make here.
They have already been buying
abroad in large quantities, for the
imports of hosiery in March were
72.8 per cent, greater than in the
same month last year. And the
rush of foreign goods has not really
begun. The German manufacturers,
who have not been catering to
American trade, are waiting to
ascertain whether the exlsiting
tariff Is likely to continue long
enough to make it worth their
while to buy the necessary ma
chinery for American styles. If the
reduced tariff should continue the
American hosiery business will be
practically destroyed, or there must
ensue a deep cut in wages.
Tet the price of hosiery is no less
than it was a year ago. Everv
extra pair Imported has displaced a
pair knit by American workmen in
American mills. The money for
them has been paid to foreign labor
and the profit has gone into the
pockets of foreign manufacturers.
The American workmen have been
discharged or are working on part
time and the manufacturers are
facing the future with deep misgiv
ings.
But notwithstanding these convinc
ing and incontrovertible facts, the
White House twins —Palmer and Mc-
Cormick—the personal selections of
President Wilson for United States
Senator and Governor of Pennsylva
nia, are rushing up and down the
highways of the State bawling for
support of an administration that
seems Immune to reason or common
sense.
President Judge Kunkel will be
given almost unanimous support for
the Supreme bench in this part of Penn
sylvania. His distinguished service has
commended him throughout the Com
monwealth and his friends are more
than confident of his success, not only
in the primary, but in the general elec
tion next November.
DEMOCRATS HEDGING
THE Democrats in Congress are
evidently endeavoring to avoid
an open declaration on woman's
suffrage and prohibition. In
their caucus the other evening they
avoided discussion of both these issues
—issues that are among the most im
portant and pressing before tho na
tional lawmaking body to-day. If the
present Congress takes no action on
them the blame will lie at the doors
! of the Democrats, for they are so over
whelmingly in the majority that tliqy
can pass any measure upon which they
| set their minds or throttle any project
not favored by their leaders or the
White House.
The prohibition and suffrage amend
ments to the national constitution were
not considered by the caucus, it was
explained, because they were not party
measures. The action of the caucus,
Democrats tried to show, does not pre
clude their consideration in the House
IF they can be reached AFTER the
DEMOCRATIC PROGRAM has been
disposed of.
Was there ever a better example
of political hedging than this? And
President Wilson lends himself to it
by agreeing to the terms of the caucus.
By the way, where does President
Wilson stand on suffrage and national
prohibition?
Doesn't It begin to look as though
he and the other Democrats at Wash
ington are trying to postpone any
definite action on these important mat
ters until after the November elec
tions in order to carry water on both
shoulders and appeal to both sides?
Appealing for support of an adminis
tration which has done so little to de
serve support is the up-hill job of the
White House twins who have already
torn the Democracy of Pennsylvania
asunder.
After this week the political pot
ought to be permitted to cool ofT and
give baseball a chance.
AN EVENING THOUGHT
The fear o' hell's the hangman's
whip
To haud the wretch in order:
But where you feel your honor
(trip,
Let that 'aye be your border.
—Burns.
1 EVENING CHAT I
Chestnut street between Second and
Third on a market morning is about
the meanest stretch of highway in
Harrißburg and trolley cars have to
elbow their way through the farmers'
wagons and the delivery teams which
cluster about. And yesterday morning
there was added to the conglomeration
of traffic a steam shovel, going east,
under its own steam. A traction en
gine working its way uround a street
is bad enough, but a steam shovel is
somewhat larger and harder to handle.
Well, traffic stopped when the machine
poked its nose around the corner. A
few farmers' horses danced and a pair
of chauffeurs promptly ran their cars
into Court street. Three trolley cars
sat down to wait on the east side of
Third street and a hundred people
turned out to see it. And the man
operating the machine piloted It
through the Jam, worked his way to
the side in front of Salem Church and
with a jet of steam bowed his big
shovel arm and gave the right of way
to traffic. He never hit anything and
everyone was so busy watching the
maeuverlng that few noticed that it
had taken five minutes to make the
two blocks.
Along the shore of the river just
above tho pumping station Is a whole
lot of undoubtedly good firewood —sev-
eral cords of it in bulk, in fact—ready
and waiting to be taken without even
the asking. Father Susquehanna pro
vided it. The half-dozen or mora cords,
of prime kindling, furnace or boiler
wood is contained in a giant tree
twenty-five or more feet in length and
at least four feet in circumference.
The tree has been lodged against the
embankment since the Spring freshets
and it doesn't help the scenery alon&,
the river front a bit. A couple of
cross-cut saws, an ax or two, and there
is enough winter's wood to fill an ordi
nary cellar. He who strolls along the
bank may see it, and if ho wishes to
obtain his next season's wood supply
free there is none to say him nay.
Fishermen in this section of the Sus
quehanna Valley have been watching
with a great deal of Interest the result
of the planting of salmon fry by
United States government experts.
Some of the fry are said to be in good
shape, but there has been objection
that some of the consignment con
sisted of fish too small to take care of
themselves. The State Department of
Fisheries some time ago gave up the
idea of planting the very small fish
and in the case of trout only well
grown specimens were put out. The
State planted many trout and bass in
this section last year and with the
government contribution fishing ought
to be improved.
Speaking of fish, there is the usual
demand made at the State Department
of Fisheries for young sunfish by
people who have ponds near their
homes and who are going to spend the
summer in localities where there are
bodies of water offering good breeding
grounds for mosquitoes. Young "sun
nles" delight in a diet of infantile mos
quitoes and the State has aided as far
as possible localities where the "skeet
ers" have been pests. Well authen
ticated records show that mosquitoes
are not numerous where there are
many suntish.
One of the noticeable things about
the convention of the street railway
men here this week was the general
approval of the course of the Public
Service Commission. To put It mildly
the commission has gone into prac
tices of the traction lines pretty lively
and some of Its rulings have been
rather expensive. But the traction
men have not only submitted, but
named a committee to work out uni
formity in reports In conjunction with
the commission. In this enlightened
and wise acceptance »f the act the
traction men are rather distinct from
some other interests which object to
State regulations. Apparently it was
realized that regulation was bound to
come and that it was best to "make
the best" of it.
Among visitors to the city to-day
was ex-Congressman D. F. Lafean, of
York, one of the candidates for nomi
nation for Congress-at-large on the
Republican ticket. .Mr. Lafean is a
well-known manufacturer and was
elected for several terms from the
lork-Adams district.
It s odd how people will flock to the
Susquehanna river when there are re
ports of a possible flood. Last night
word got about that there was danger
of high water at Wilkes-Barre This
morning scorns of people lined the
river bank watching the stream.

CULLED TO STIITE
Desperate Machine Ticket Drafts
the Secretary of Labor to
Explain McCormick
BRYAN CAN'T STEM THE TIDE
City Legislative Nominations Bone
of Contentions Among the
Democrats Today
Secretary of Tjabor "Billy" Wilson
has been drafted from Washington to
help the Palmer-McCormlek ticket in
the Democratic primaries next Tues
day, and will pay particular attention
to explaining McCormick'slabor record.
Even the p ,- esence of Secretary of
State William Jennings Bryan at
Wilkes-tiarre and AUentown yesterday
and his speeches about upholding the
President l.>y voting for the machine
ticket failed to dtvert attention from
the attacks on McCormick, and the
Secretary of Labor will come In on
Saturday for the finishing speeches up
in the hard coal region.
McCormick's defensive play has been
weak and even Palmer's interference
has not checked onslaughts. Now they
have brought in "Billy" to form a
flying wedge in the hope that they
may get McCormick across the line.
Bryan had a fine time yesterday.
He had crowds out all along the line.
The machine Democrats passed along
the word and lots of other
folks turned out to see and
Bryan hear the Secretary of State
Asks in the hope that he would
Votes say something that would
clarify the Mexican mess.
Bryan was sent in by the
President not only to lend a hand to
Palmer, but to try and set him
straight. The administration is thor
oughly alarmed over fear of a rebuff,
and it was significant that Bryan men
tioned only Palmer in his speech.
Some got the idea that McCormick
was regarded as too hot a potato for
Bryan to handle. Throughout Bryan
pleaded for support for Wilson. Ho
spoke from a train at Allentown and
in an armory at Wilkes-Barre.
Senator Boles Penrose spent last
night in the city so as to get an early
start on his way to Bellefonte, the first
stop In his final primary
campaign tour, and smiled
Penrose broadly when asked about
Smiles the entrance of Secretary of
Broadly State Bryan and other Cabi
net officials into the Demo
crat fc primary fight. "Yes,
X see they are taking a hand. The
last time an administration took a
hand in a factional contest in a State
was in New York and we know what
happened," said he. The senator ap
peared to be in fine fettle and well
pleased with his prospects. He will
visit State College to-day and then go
to Bellefonte, being in Phillipsburg
and other places to-morrow and wind
ing up the week in Johnstown at a
meeting. Sunday he will come here
and remain for the family party of
the Harrisburg Republican Club on
Monday.
Members of the committee of ar
rangements for the dinner in cele
bration of the twelfth anniversary of
the incorporation of the
Harrisburg Republican Club
have completed their plans Prepare
for the family dinner which Family
is to be held on Monday Dinner
night at Chestnut Street
Hall. The dinner will be
limited to members and a few guests,
as it is to be solely a club affair. Sen
ator E. E. Beidleman will be toast
master and the speakers will include
Senator Penrose. Congressman Kreider
and the Republican candidates. Gov
ernor Tener will attend if possible, but
he may have to leave Saturday for
Charleroi.
Democrats in the city legislative dis
trict have gotten into a brawl which
threatens to complicate matters in the
Democratic gubernatorial
contest. This citv is a
Democrats point which will be
Get Into watched with great in-
City Kow terest all over the State
and as the machine has
openly espoused the cause
of Jesse J. Lybarger the friends of the
other three candidates will concentrate
tire on him. Dybarger has been noisier
than ever known in his previous cam
paigns, none of which landed him in
the Legislature. Calder B. Sham mo
has come out against the machine and
Marshall and Kinsinger are wondering
where they are going to get off. The
city legislative situation is badly mixed,
just as are the Democrats.
rqUTICAL SIDELIGHTS
—Curious, the only candidate Bryan
mentioned by name was Palmer.
—The Patriot says that when Bry
an spoke of candidates he made a ges
ture that took in McCormick. But he
did not name him.
—They say Bryan has a long mem
ory about those who voted against him
in the years of his crusades.
—Bryan must have lost his punch
that they have drafted "Billy" Wilson
so soon.
—Ryan appears to have been study
ing McCormick at close range.
—Mayor Warman, atlTnlontown, had
to prevent John O'Donneli, a newspa
perman, from attacking Ryan last
night.
—Federal officeholders in Philadel
phia have been notified of a "meeting"'
at the Democratic Club to-morrow.
State Chairman Morris will speak.
—Pinchot is touring Bucks county
and enjoying the scenery.
—The McCormick '-aravan touched
five counties yesterday. The coun
ties will do their touching later on.
—ln McCormlck's ads he is called
the "rescuer and reviver" of the Dem
ocratic party. Wonder where Palmer
comes in.
—Dimmick expressed himself as
well satisfied with his campaign in
Pittsburgh yesterday.

IT CANT HE DONE
By Winn Dinger
The editor Is yelling
For my poem for to-day,
And as It is nine thirty
I'll write it right away.
Now let me see, what subject
Will likely bring a smile.
I have it—b't excuse me
For just a little while.
Someone came in to see me
On business, that was why
I asked you to excuse me,
And now to write I'll try.
I've got to do some hustling,
Because it's half past ten.
Well, here goes—but pray pardon,
There is my phone again.
I have fust two more minutes
To write this verse of fun,
And I've forgot my subject—
By jove, it can't be done.
I,et Papa Alone
f From the Pottsville Journal.]
Now what kind of a llower would
we wear on Fathers' day if such a day
were designated? Koine_lH)dy_^iaH__^jji2
