FILLING MATERIAL
CITIZENS and taxpayers of the
western section of the city—the
Important territory north of
Broad street—are watehing-with
much interest the River Front devel
bpment. They believe that now is the
•time to complete the work and are
decidedly of the opinion that the op
portunity to obtain the filling material
necessary from the excavations for the
Bubway at Second and Mulberry
streets should not be neglected. Fill
ing material is about as hard to pro
cure in Harrisburg under present con
ditions as gold in Alaska and this fact
should be, considered in any nego
tiations for the transfer of the ma
terial in sight for the grading of the
elope in the narrow stretches north of
Calder street.
The rapid progress of the con
tractors on the river wall suggests the
necessity for immediate action to the
end that the material from the ex
cavations for the subways shall be
made available without further delay.
Inasmuch as the; last park loan is
available for park purposes, Superin
tendent Taylor will be Justified in mak
ing any reasonable arrangement for
utilizing the 20,000 or more loads of
dirt that will come from the Second
and Mulberry street excavations.
The esteemed Palmer-McCormick
bulletin of this city says that Dr. Brum
baugh must be defeated because he Is
the choice of an alleged political ma
chine, but not a word about the hand
picked candidate of the White House
machine in this Stats.
WHO HAS BEEN FOOLING HIM?
WHO has been misleading Presi
dent Wilson?
Or has he, like an East
Indian fakir, been gazing into
the dream mirror of his own making
until he has hypnotized himself Into
a world of fancy and hallucination?
In an effort to bolster up his own
courage and to let the people of the
country know that business may ex
pect no mercy at his hands, he took
occasion, on the day of the greatest
mercantile failure in the history of the
United States, to tell a party of visit
ing editors that his game of badgering
is to continue unabated. Not one word
of sympathy for the head of the great
bouse that fell yesterday, or the hun
dreds of creditors who stand to lose
heavily, but fatuous reiteration of the
assertion that the administration is
determined, willy niliy, to put through
the program of experimental legis
lation upon which it has decided.
The President says that he is "in
formed" that "Congress and the na
tion are with him."
Cengress certainly, for the Presi
dent has it bound hand and foot. But
the nation, never. There never was a
more unpopular President than Wood
row Wilson is to-day. He has wrecked
U? e nation's prosperity at home and
has made it the laughing stock of gov
ernments He will learn how
much the nation Is with him when the
.November elections overturn the Demo
cratic majority In the House and put
an end to the one-man rule that has
been the bane of the country ever
tinre the last inauguration.
"The nation is on the eve of a busi
ness revival." he told those to whom
he spoke. This Is in sharp contrast
■with hia attitude of a week ago, when
he asserted that no business depres
sion exists, except in the imaginations
of buainess men. And, he continued,
"when the tariff was passed it was
found that the readjustment was pos
sible without any serious disturbance
whatever."
Wa« ever a supposedly intelligent
jman guilty of such stupid assertions?
I Business revival! No serious disturb
ance! As well say the San Francisco
[earthquake shook down no buildings!
The Iron and metal market is the
(barometer of trade In this section. The
.official records show that of the 423
.coke and anthracite furnaces In the
■.United States only 197 were in blast
.June 1. Eighteen additional furnaces
■went out of blast during May; among
those blown out were three at Buffalo,
N. Y.; one at Steelton, two In the
Pittsburgh district, two "in the She
nango Valley, one in West Virginia
and the rest in Ohio and the West.
The production last month, accord
ing to The Iron Age, wu at the rate of
pjM than 25,000,000 too* & year. To*
FRIDAY EVENING
day it ia at the, rate of lew than
24,000,000 tons a year, showing a fall
ing off of about 30 per cent below the
same period'last year.
The dally pig Iron production dur
ing the month of May averaged less
than at any period since 1907, except
during May, 1909.
The railroads show a continued fall
ing oft in traffic, the Panhandle passed
its dividend this week, there have
been bank failures in Chicago and else
where, and a great mercantile failure
in New York affecting thousands of
banks all the United States. Our
local steel mills are working on a
20 per cent, basis. Business men say
they will be content If they weather
this year without a loss; their thoughts
of profit are for the most part gone.
Textile mills are closed or operating
on quarter time. Our exports are fall
ing off and our imports are increasing,
which means that foreign laborers at
starvation wages are supplying our
wants while our own workingmen are
idle.
And the reductions in living ex
penses which the low tariff were sup
posed to bring have not materialized.
Prices are just as high now as ever
and work and wages are hard to get.
in the face of all this Wilson
sa ift "the country is on the eve of a
great business revival."
Somebody has been fooling the
President, or he has been fooling him
self, and now he wants to fool every
body else. Unfortunately for the ad
ministration, the White House "dope"
loses its potency outside of the imme
diate official circle. Every new dose
of It teaches a normally Republican
country the futility of entrusting Its
affairs to men antagonistic to business
principles and reckless of its interests.
Now that the improvement of the River
Front between Paxton street and Iron
alley 'is nearing completion, all Inter
ested citizens will be able to Bee for
themselves just what the treatment of
the river frontage means.
BE CHEERFUL
A NOTED physician gives as his
chief means of keeping cool
these hot days this brief but
■">mprehensive bit of advice:
"Don't worry; be cheerful."
u. ...jgiu have gone further and
said that cheerfulness is not only con
ducive to mental and physical comfort
in summer, v but a promoter of good
health all the year around.
The habitual "grouch" is sowing
the seeds of 111-health in his own
body. Bad humor gives imperceptible
strokes,to the delicate fibers of our
beings and the human machine suf
fers to a degree so minute that we
do not at the time note it, b'ut which
persistently followed will in the end
result in the disaster of physical
breakdown.
It isn't always easy to be cheerful,
but the greatest means to that end
is a habitual consideration of one'j
many blessings and constant repres
sion of the tendency to dwell on
wrongs or misfortunes.
Next Tuesday the Chamber of Com
merce will have a luncheon meeting at
the Board of Trade building, and E. S.
Herman, president of the City Planning
Commission, and one of- our best
known business men, will outline a plan
of action during the fall and winter
for persons Interested in sales and ad
vertising. Mr. Herman is a student of
publicity In business, and his talk at
: the luncheon will doubtless be well
worth hearing. Members have been In
vited to bring guests, and while many
of the members of the Chamber of
Commerce are out of the city there
will be a good attendance notwith
standing.
GOLD EXPORTS
WRITING to the Telegraph a
correspondent asks:
Why Is It that the ex
port of gold to Europe Is
causing so little concern now,
whereas a few years ago the coun
try was threatened with a panic
whenever gold was sent abroad in
large quantities? Doesn't this show
that business is on a sound basis?
The answer is simple', and it does
not indicate a sound condition of
business.
On the other hand, it shows that
business is so slack in the United
States that money is plenty and cheap.
The manufacturer is clearing his
decks, rather than creating new obli
gations. He is out of the money
market. Consequently he doesn't
care where the gold supply goes. A
few million, more or less, means noth
ing to the business of the country to
day.
But if trade were booming and gold
were being exported at the prese it
rate we might be having full oppor
tunity now of testing the elasticity
of our currency system and the prac
tical benefits of the new banking law.
HUNTING FOR AN EXCUSE
THERE is more than a difference
of views in the refusal of the
•Democratic City Committee of
Philadelphia to endorse the
Palmer-McCormick platform al
though that would be serious enough
in Itself to excite comment.
Democrats in Pennsylvania have been
known to overlook more than is in
volved in this platform controversy.
If the Democratic leaders of Philadel
phia had been really desirous of giv
ing Palmer and McCormick their full
and unqualified support there would
h»ve been no open row over resolu
tions.
The truth is, the Ryan leaders of
Philadelphia are looking for an ex
cuse to desert the heads of the State
Democratic ticket who maligned them
in the primary fight. And the dis
interested voter will wonder why Pal
mer and McCormick are so anxious
for the support of men who only a
few weeks ago they were calling
"party traitors" and "corrupt poli
ticians."
Banks are almost choked with fundk,
but what good is money when capital
has lost all confidence In investment
under the present administration.
Jack Johnscn is going to fight as a
, Frenchman. No protest from this tilde.
I EVENING CHAT I
One of these days the men compos
ing the Grand Army of the Republic
will be so diminished in nurpbers that
many of the posts will go out of exist
ence. Of course, we all hope that the
day may be long deferred and that the
veterans will be with us years to come
and that they may be enabled to par
ticipate in ceremonies as interesting
as the battle flag transfer exercises
on Capitol Hill some ten or fifteen
days ago. But some there will be
a passing of the organizations of the
veterans of the great war and many
objects of patriotic interest and relics
of great sentimental as well as his
toric value will then be In danger of
dispersion. Some of the posts have
collections which should as a matter
of public concern become the property
of the Commonwealth in whose regi
ments the veterans won imperishable
glory, but unfortunately nothing has
been done to prepare a place for such
things. Even the battle flag collection
which has been so much in the public
eye lately is not complete and there
are' flags which properly belong to it
which are owned by posts and individ
uals, who are disinclined to present
them at this time because of desire to
retain them longer or because they
do not deem that the means afforded
for public display in the Capitol ro
tunda are adequate. The State Mu
seum, which has been developed in
the face of considerable discourage
ment, to be frank about it, is going to
be very much crowded within a short
time and the space left by the transfer
of the flags will be quickly taken up.
The Museum is not large enough for
its purposes now and if these relics
of war days, which stir the blood of
everyone and which form a mighty big
factor of interest to the boys and girls
at school, were to be offered the State
could not display them as it should do.
The Capitol is overcrowded and some
day the departments housed outside
will have to be concentrated. When
the time comes to extend the wings of
the great granite pile into what will
be park extension some thought
should be given to providing fireproof
quarters for a Museum worthy the
name and of the State.
There is a good story back of the
appearance, in this city yesterday of
J. A. Shindler, member of the govern
ment inspection party that is going
over the proposed Lincoln Highway
frqm the Atlantic to the Pacific ocean.
Only a few years ago Shindler, who is
still quite a young man, was an ap
prentice boy in the office of the Sun
day Courier, and, tradition has it, was
one of the most mischievous boys that
newspaper ever employed. If there
was anything about the office that was
amiss it was safe to lay the blame at
Shindler's door. But the lad was am
bitious as well as active and his sur
plus energy prompted him to try his
fate in Washington, where after a
hard struggle he won a clerkship un
der civil service rules in the Treasury
Department. No sooner had he be
come acquainted with his duties there
than he entered a Washington engi
neer school for a course as geograph
ical engineer. After a year and a half
of study, during which he worked all
day in the office and nearly all night
over his books, and during which
time he spent most of his money for
books and tuition and only a mere
trifle on food and clothing, he was
granted his diploma and at once pre
pared for government service as geo
graphic engineer. He passed his ex
aminations and was sent to Ohio,
where he was mixed up in the great
floods that over a year ago devasted
that State and was for a time reported
dead. Recently for good work he was
assigned to the Lincoln Highway in
spection party and will assist in the
survey of the route to be laid out be
yond Ogden, Utah, the present term
inus of the route. Shindler wears a
handsome uniform and is to-day the
envy of all the printers' apprentices in
town who know his story.
Last Monday was the fourth anni
versary of the nomination of Gover
nor John K. Tener. It took place in
the Majestic theater on a day- about
as hot as those we have been having
lately. It is also of Interest to note
that the year before that the Gov
ernor was the chairman of the com
mittee on resolutions of the conven
tion which named Auditor General A.
E. Sisson.
Work on the River Front attracts
the attention of almost every man in
terested in municipal affairs who
comes to the city. Lately because' of
numerous conventions there have
been many men active in the affairs
of their home cities and they have
taken trips over the park system and
along the River Front. One man who
had walked along the whole River
Front asked the cost of the parking,
paving, river sewers, wall and dam
and when an approximate figure was
given he remarked: "It would be
cheap if it cost three times as much.
Just look what you've got. There's
nothing like it possessed by any other
city in the State and Trenton's just
waking up to what can be done."

PENROSE CRUSHED
TFrom the New Sun.]
In the whole gallery of political vir
tue, no deed more elevating, no example
more inspiring, can be found than the
stern rebuke administered by Herbert
Parsons, of this fortunate. State, to the
wicked and abandoned Boies Penrose,
of Pennsylvania.
Himself the product of a purity in
politics that dazzles with Its whiteness,
the practitioner of a partisanship Im
maculate In its idealism, the supporter
of a factionalism irreproachable in Its
methods, Mr. Parsons finds the narrow
fields of the Empire State too small to
contain his natural and carefully cul
tivated superior righteousness.
How heartening to the Hon. Gilford
Pinchot must be the knowledge that
he commands and receives the unquali
fied endorsement of Mr. Parsons; how
crushed must Mr. Penrose be to learn
that he Is not fit for the chaste society
of this phenomenon of New York!

McCormick-Morris Plan to Rip Out
the Philadelphia Committee
is Not Favored
MORRIS SAYS HARMONY SOON
Detrich Did Not Have His Wireless
Working and Stirs Up Dust
to Hide Troubles
Some of the Democratic machine
bosses are reported as losing their
nerve over the plan of Candidate Mc-
Cormick and State Chairman Roland
S. Morris to rip out the Philadelphia
Democratic city committee, elected by
the people at the primary on May 19,
and there may be objections to be
smoothed over before Morris can get
revenge for2Hls frequent defeats at the
hands of the old organization and Mc.
Cormick for what was said about him
in 1911 and 1914.
It is pointed out by some of the
cooler heads in the inside ring of the
Democratic machine that to throv
out a committee elected at the pri
mary when McCormick ran woold
have a bad effect on many people
and attract attention to the split.
State Democratic headquarters de
clines to make any statement about
the matter.
A Nevin Detridh, chairman of the
Washington party State committee,
did some beautiful sidestepping yester
day when his opinion
was asked about the
Colonel's espousal of Unhappy
Perkins in the fuss with Days For
the Pinchots. Detrich Detrich
said that the Colonel
could not make a mis
take. This is taken to mean that
Detrich, the State chairman, does not
stand with Pinchot, his senatorial can
didate, and shows the disruption in the
Bull Moose party very plainly. Detrich
is now stirring up a lot of dust with
the Health Department to hide his dis
comfiture since Senator McNichol said
he should go to Pittsburgh to be told
how to think and since he got in bad
by lining up with Pinchot without a
tip as to how the Colonel would stand.
In Philadelphia last night Mr. Mor
ris was asked if the executive com
mittee would hear the appeal of John

"If Mr. Hill files an appeal," he re

hear any appeal from any part of the
State. In fact, there are differences in
one or two other counties which must
be straightened out. That is part of
the'executive committee's routine busi
ness. The committee has not been
called for that purpose, however, nor
for any other special purpose, merely
for the transaction of general busi
ness. If you will trace these stories of
disruption to their sources you will find
that they are put out mainly by Re
publicans who want to se the Demo
cratic party split. Ours will be a har
monious party this Fall, flgliting
against a disrupted opposition. There
are no underhand plots afoot, as has
been charged."

come to light that
Steel got out be

held behind closed doors. It lias leak
ed out that Steel took umbrage at
Brumm, who "bossed" the party in
this county, notwithstanding that Wil

assert. Speaking in the House yester
day, Representative Humphrey, of
Washington, said:
"If a man wants to go away during
the heated term, I do not know that
he can be criticised. We are being
kept here by the dictation of the White
House, and looking on the Democratic
side of the chamber I note the distin
guished gentleman from Pennsylvania,
Mr. Palmer, is absent. He so seldom

White House dictation? They are out
preaching the doctrine of repudiation.
They are tellipg the peqple what a
grand thing it is under the British
flag and domination of the transcon
tinental railroads, under the direction
of the White House, to repudiate their
platform. They are telling the rest of
us to stay here the rest of the summer
while they are looking after fences."

—The mint appointment in Phila

—Detrich ought to have had a wire
less connection with the Imperator.
—Pretty nervy for Democrats to try
to fuse with Bull Moosers on Con

—PJnchot has not yet answered the
.Colonel's stand for Perkins.
—Wonder If Detrich will follow the
Colonel If they read him out -of the
party with Perkins.
—No one seems to have any more
doubt that there is a good referendum
clause in the third-class ctty act.
• —The remarks In Washington yes

were not given much space in the
Patriot to-day.
—Berry can give Palmer some
points on long distance job holding.

THE HOBBLED SENATE
A lamentable state of feeling has
grown up In the Senate. The attitude
of some of the members toward pend
ing legislation is one of fatigue. These
Senators recognize that their opportu
nities of usefulness are limited to
pruning away excessive evils. Feeling
that as regards the main issues they
:an do nothing but submit to pres
sure and ratify the program forced
upon them they are beginning to
clamor l'or a hasty release from their
humiliating plight.—New York Sun.
SUBMARINE BELLS FOR LIFEBOATS
[From the Engineering News.]
Submarine signal bells as equipment
for ship lifeboats are suggested by the
experience of a lifeboat of the burned
transatlantic steamer Columbian. This
boat drifted for two weeks directly in
the path of transatlantic liners, and her
occupants saw several steamers, but
were unable to signal them. There
were fifteen men in the boat, and eleven
died before rescue came. Had ships
been equipped with submarine signal
receiving apparatus and had the drift
ing lifeboat of the Columbian been
equipped with a submarine bell, it
could have signaled passing steamers a
long distance away. It is stated that
the sound from a submarine bell rung
by hand can be detected at a distance
of several miles.

A friil,l to Stand lip
[From the Outlook.]
Business is disorganized. New en
terprises are not begun; pld enterprises
are curtailing their business; willing
workers are laid off; every morning
newspaper reports the cry of the un
employed; dividends are reduced or
passed altogether. The crops are prom
ising; conditions demand prosperity.
But business is not good; prosperity is
conspicuously absent.
Why?
Mexico does not want war; the
United States does not want war; and
yet we are in a state of restrained
war with Mexico. American property
has been looted; scores of American
3ltlzens have been killed. The Ameri
can flag has furnished no protection;
for protection Americans have fled to
English and German flags. The hos
tility of the Mexicans to the United
State* is increased; their respect for
the courage and efficiency of the Unltett
States is diminished. That our re
ations with England, Germany and
spaln are not more seriously strained
is due to their unparalleled patience.
I'hat we are not embroiled In actual
warfare with Mexico is due to the
tindly offices of our South American
iclghbors. No one wants war, and yet
we are on the edge of war.
Why?
We have had the responsibilities and
luties of sovereignty thrust upon us

lave substituted law for anarchy, and
