BOltodal Room 6M. Job Dept. JO»J MONDAY EVENING. JUIjY « NOW IS TIPE TIME NO time is to be lost in arranging for the dual celebration con templated for next Fourth of July. This is to be the biggest jubilee In the history of Harrisburg. It will mark the completion of the vast chain of public improvements started away back in the . early 'nine ties, when the Telegraph first pub lished a few suggestive sketches of the wall along the river and the In tercepting sewer. The Harrisburg of to-day is a vastly different city from that of those days. It is bigger and better, a more prosperous commun ity, cleaner and more attractive. It has everything a modern city should have and it has set the pace for muni cipalities the country over. It is altogether appropriate, there fore, that Harrisburg should put on her holiday dress, let the neighbors know that her house is In order and invite them around for a friendly call. A year is not too long a time to ar range for a festival of the magnitude planned. It must be on a scale com mensurate with the greatness of the public improvements, the completion of which it will mark. It's not too soon for the organization of boat clubs and other associations for the big river carnival of July 4, 1915. Men, women and children should have a part In the festivities and now is the time to plan for the city's biggest event since Old Home Week. WILSON-IAN PATRIOTISM CAREFUL, reading of President Wilson's address at Philadel phia—his Fourth of July mes sage to the people of the United States from the very cradle of Amer ican liberty—compels the conclusion that the President is a victim of self hypnotism; that he is incapable of un derstanding the motives and forces which are controling and influencing the development and destiny of the Republic. Throughout the speech is an under current of pessimism and distrust which shows itself In a forced and impossible interpretation of patriot ism, the Wilsonian idea of this lofty attribute of the human heart. He would revise the Declaration of Inde pendence to suit modern conditions. His "New Freedom" is given fresh Inspiration and a more extended defi nition, but behind and back of it all is the tendency of the distinguished orator to befog the realities of his day and generation with glittering sophistries and clanging phrases. He Insists that the enforced stay of the members of the Senate and House in Washington "to maintain a quorum of the houses and transact public business" is an act of patriot ism and declares with some conde scension that he is "mighty glad to stay there and stick by them until it is over." How considerate of the President, but if, as he declared, "it is patriotic also to know what the facts are and to face them with can dor" it is also fair to call attention to the fact that the "patriotism" which is holding the two houses in session when the people of the country are urging adjournment is the brand of "patriotism" which has characterized the present administration through out; the "patriotism" which usurps the functions of one important de partment by another—the arbitrary control of the legislative branch by the executive; the "patriotism" based upon public patronage used where it will do the most good, the kind that sees a menace in every act that is contrary to the theory of the Presi dent and which is the embodiment of his views. Distrust, suspicion and criticism ap peared in almost every paragraph of the speech. "Are they Khose who insist that things are going wrong] trying to put hope into the hearts of men who work and toil every day, or rather are they putting discourage ment and despair into these hearts?" asked the President. And in this question he betrayed the whole weak ness of the Wilsonlan philosophy—the MONDAY EVENING. HARRISBURG SgsSsgS TELEGRAPH . JULY 6, 1914. failure to realize the incapacity of an administration whose policies . are crushing the hope and "putting dis couragement and despair" into thou sands of hearts. Again the President speaks of the inadequacy of the immortal Declara tion in that the ideals of 1776 will not fit Into present-day circumstances, suggesting as he has done frequently, that we must use our great power and Influence as a nation for the better ment and welfare of other peoples. In brief, the Americans who extend their energies and activities outside the boundaries of the United States do so at tbetr own risk and should not expect the protection of their own government. It has not been forgot ten that early In the Wilson admin istration Americans In Mexico were advised by the Washington authori ties to abandon their important inter ests and leave the country, when firm ness and a straightforward declara tion of purpose would have safe guarded these Americans and their interests and prevented the unspeak able horrors which have marked our alleged diplomacy south of the Rio Grande. The "patriotism" which yearns for the downtrodden of other countries and advocates an altruism that is as beautiful as it is impractical, which would relieve suffering abroad while responsible for greater suf fering at home is not the patriot ism which the average American ex emplifies and President Wilson is go ing to learn in a day not far distant that he Is not in step with the Amer ican people, that he Is a dreamer whose head is in the clouds and whose feet are upon, shifting sands. Nor does it follow, as was suggested fn this speech, which sounded here and there like an apology, that "the most patriotic man is sometimes the man who goes in the direction in which he thinks he is right." Patriot ism may have nothing to do with it. Pride of opinion may have much to do with It. Even stubbornness and inexperience are elements in the situa tion. Fanaticism is sometimes called patriotism and the President's "in sidious lobby" and "conspiracy of business" and his other* doubts and fears are not in tune with the spirit and aspirations of a loyal and patriotic people. As the editor of "Outlook" observes, "those who believe that all business has become so corroded with dishonesty that there is no way of making it clean, except by a process of distrust, suspicion, investigation and dissolution, are in duty bound by their conscience to favor the policy of the present administration. Those, however, who believe that modern business is essentially clean and hon est, and that the tendency to combina tion in business is as wholesome and beneficial as the tendency to combina tion in religion, philanthropy and edu cation are in duty bound by their con science to express their disapproval of the present administration's policy and to do what they can to substitute for it a policy of regulation and co operation." "All over this land," says the same writer, "thousands are suffering from the loss of income. Some, dependent j on profits from shares in business en terprises find their dividends re duced or cut off altogether; others, dependent upon wages, have had their wages reduced or have been dis missed because there was no employ ment for them. This is not a theory, it is a fact. It cannot be changed by the quotation of statistics about bank clearances or crop reports. It means worry and hunger." President Wilson is fast giving em phasis to the homely verdict of a Democratic supporter out of a Job \vho said: — "Our party don't know how to run things and I'm through votin' the Democratic ticket." It was some celebration of the Fourth here, but wait until the next anniver sary of Independence Day Then the eagle will scream! SVX YAT-SEN'S I/ATEST DR. SUN YAT-SEN wants Amer ica to contribute $1,000,000 to finance a new revolution in China. America may sym pathize with Dr. Sun, but not to the extent of a million dollars. The man who was prime mover in the overthrow of the Manchus may have been very shabbily treated by those who suc ceeded him in power, and he doubt less was, but the new government seems to be succeeding much better than anybody anticipated and Dr. Sun is barking up the wrong tree when he tries to keep himself in the lime light and better his own personal con dition by starting a new war in war ridden China. THE SWALLOW FOUNTAIN PUBLIC spirited citizens of this community might do well to emulate the recent act of Dr. S. C. Swallow, of Camp Hill, long the exponent of cold water as the ideal drink, and one time candidate of the Prohibition party for the Presi dency, in placing a public drinking fountain on the highway between this city and Mechanicsburg. Nothing Dr. Swallow might have done could have shown more clearly his, public spiritedness and at the same time his position on the drink question. While people may not agree with the Doctor on many points po litically, nevertheless all will admit that he has done a lasting good for both man and beast who trudge the weary high road. Hotel keepers long have been clever enough to place inns midway between i towns as an enticement to the foam ing glass; it remained for Central 11 Pennsylvania's foremost Prohibition ist to adopt the cleverness of the J enemy and place a watering place at | a strategical point on the Mechanics-'' burg road. HEALTH BOARD'S GOOD WORK IN refusing to grant licenses to res taurant keepers and milkmen of this city whose places of business are in an unsanitary condition, the Board of Health at the same time pro tects the health of the community and hands other restaurateurs and milk men a lesson that will doubtless be productive of good results. The time Is past when dirty, ill smelling, disease-breeding eating places can do business in Harrisburg. If people will insist on patronizing such places and Jeopardizing their health and the health of the commu nity in general, it Is necessary that the authorities close such restaurants. If milkmen continue to dispense Im pure milk after they have been warned, it is right that the health de partment should refuse to let them sell their product. Dr. RaUnick, the man who is per haps doing more than any other in making Harrisburg a cleaner and bet ter place in which to live, was sus tained in his position of refusing such dealers licenses, and rightly so. I EVENING CHAT I There was the usual array of lost articles displayed at the offices of the Harrisburg Railways Company to-day, the fact that there were two big travel days causing more than the ordinary number of things to be turned in at the office. It is a rule of the company, and rigidly adhered to by the men, that everything found on a car shall be turned into the office immediately upon the completion of the trip. As a result everything from umbrellas and parcels to hair combs have been handed in at the window by con ductors. On one trip recently a con ductor got a well-lillcd market basket and a bag of pretzels. Another man turned In a hair comb studded with brilliants and rhinestones that it hurt his eyes. Lost, strayed or scared kids are nothing unusual and once a man got off a car leaving a dog on the front end. They thought at first that he was trying to lose the animal, but ho came around half an hour later and relieved the company's officers of a dog that was making itself heard. The dog was owner of a pedigree that was something worth while. Two ducks in a box were forgotten by a lady who later called up on the tele phone and displayed a knowledge of Herman that refused to bo translated in the excitement. Another man left a casting weighing sixty pounds on a car and oftentimes men get so inter ested in newspapers or conversations that they have to hustle for the door and leave the meat for supper on the car seat. Not long ago a youth called up the office and asked if a package of cigarets had been turnd in. But they I drew the line there. Speaking of cars and objects that ride on them, the funniest was when a couple of boys who had been roaming about on the First Mountain allowed a land tortoise to take a stroll in a Rockville car. This was some time ago, but it's still good. The tortoise was somewhat startled when he opened his door and got his bearings. Then he started to walk. His first lap took him over the foot of a girl of about eighteen. She shrieked and took to the seat. By that time the turtle had gone under the next seat and was trying to knock out of his way the brogans of a colored laborer. He hopped into the aisle. When the tortoise had gone under the third seat he came into contact with the hand of a woman who had proceeded to get ready to move some bundles on the floor. She nearly fainted. Then the conductor captured the animal and the boys, who had been looking so innocent, asked to be given the reptile to "take home." And the conductor gave it to them. When it is considered that more than 2,000 candidates' names were classified and listed after being verified at the State Department before the pamphlet giving names of state, con gressional and legislative nominees was issued it is astonishing that there were practically no errors, in one in stance it was found that a man's name had one too many letters and another kicked on the use of a letter left out. The funniest one in the list, however, was a man who called up and com plained about a wrong initial. "You've given me the same name as my cousin." the candidate complained. He s a nice fellow, but he's a Demo crat. It's rather surprising, when one thinks about it, that there are no Hags of light batteries of Pennsylva nia's volunteers in the Civil War dis played in the cases in the Capitol rotunda. Almost every other organ ization is commemorated—infantry cavalry, heavy artillery and signal corps—but for some reason there are none of the familiar red guidons bear ing the crossed cannon which were such a feature of the Pennsylvania militia in the great war. The names of Rickett's and other batteries are great in American history and it's rather odd that none of them has a flag in the State House. The "jag list" provided by the county poor authorities to prevent liquor be ing sold to persons who are depend ents or beneficiaries of the county is the successor of a similar list made out in the nineties. In that period there were a good many men who could not find work and who had, much against their Inclinations, to ac cept the bounty of the public. At the same time there was the usual number of "regulars" who accepted the aid without any qualms and who when they got a dollar ahead spent it for rum. Now it happened that some of the beneficiaries became known for their bibulous ways and it caused some complaint from those who had to ac cept county aid. So a list was made and passed around. It resulted in some vigorous "flagging" at bars. People have to take their hats off to Denver. It has a number of Penn sylvanians in its make-up and it cer tainly has some Keystone State meth ods coupled with Rocky Mountain en terprise. Take, for Instance, the let ters being sent out by firms in that city. They announce that business is Rood and looks better; that the strike has not bothered any one at all and that Uncle Sam's probe has proved that a lot of people who traduced the State were in the same class as those who throw mud at Pennsylvania. They have had a lot of rain and the farmers are happy. Incidentally, the letter asks that the good word he passed along. When It comes down to boosting those Denver men KO some.

SIXTY-TWO CENTS DlPll'S RITE | Philadelphia Paper Analyzes the Expenditure of the McCormick Committees Here DEWALT BUMPS PLATFORM Lehigh County Committee Lines Up With Clearfield—Dr. Brumbaugh Is Gaining Sixty-two cents a vote was what it cost to get out the votes for McCor mick in this county at the May pri -1 mary, according to an article pub lished in the Philadelphia Inquirer yesterday morning. The article gives figures from the accounts of the Dem ocratic Citizens' League and the Pal mer - McCormick League, which handled the campaign work for the Harrisburg candidate, and says: "The organizations, one known as 'The Democratic Citizens' Committee of Dauphin county,' and the other as 'The Palmer-McCormick League of Harrisburg," acknowledge having ex vended $2,184.23 In the single county of Dauphin. And there are sixty-six other counties in Pennsylvania. "As Palmer and McCormick polled in round figures 3,500 votes in Dau phin county, the two committees alone expended an average of 62 cents for each vote recorded for these candi dates, aside from any other expendi tures that may have been made for a like purpose and not reported. "Dauphin has never been distin guished as a cheap county for candi dates in whose behalf it was consid ered necessary to make a money cam paign, but the heavy cost of the Pal mer-McConnick campaign last month, and in a primary election at that, is still the talk of the county. "The omission of the names of the 'watchers' practically makes the ex pense account of little value. The publication of the names of the 'watchers' in Clinton county, where the expense of polling the Palmer- McCormick primary votes was about $1.47 each, was a revelation to the citizens who did not share in the dis tribution of the reorganizers' cam paign funds." A statement issued by the Dimmick campaign committee last night strik ingly shows the strength of Dr. Mar tin G. Brumbaugh, the Republican candidate Brumbaugh for Governor. The Strength statement gives a com- Is Shown pllation of the vote for the doctor in various counties. It says In part; "Dr. Brumbaugh polled 253,788 votes out of 320,097 cast for Republi can gubernatorial candidates and Senator Penrose 219,871 out of 332,- 265 cost for senatorial candidates. In Philadelphia the Brumbaugh vote was 87,075. In Allegheny county, the Brumbaugh vote was 47,180. Brum baugh carried every county carried by Dimmick, including Cambria, the home county of Mayor Cautfiel, of Johnstown, who was Brumbaugh's leading opponent. Brumbaugh had 3,369 votes in Cambria and his vote in Lackawanna county, the home county of Dimmick, was 6,248." Democrats all over the State are rubbing their eyes over the perform ance of the Democratic county com mittee of Lehigh on Saturday. Coming so soon after the thrash- Dewalt Hits ing given to the friends Platform of of the State candi- McCormick dates in Clearfield county, and the public denunciation of the activity of the McCormick postmasters, the Lehigh action has furnished fresh indication of the divisions among the Democrats. Ex-Senator Arthur G. Dewalt, the nominee for Congress, who was guillo tined by the reorganization commit tee headed by McCormick, controlled the committee and slated all of the officers. His supporters got out of hand, incidentally, and jeered and hooted the supporters of Congress man Rothermel, who was defeated by Dewalt and then refused the mint su perintendency. Attention was called to the Industrial depression in the region and then Dewalt made a speech that was ripped to pieces by the Roth ermel men in the meeting. He plead ed for support for the National and State platforms, and for the State ticket from Palmer and McCormick down to Congress and Assembly. He then turned around and In spite of the fact that the platform of McCormick as a candidate for Governor declares for local option and woman's suffrage, announced that such declarations aro undemocratic. Two speeches and four receptions is the record made by Senator Boies Penrose on Independence Day at Ephrata. One of the speeches and two of the Penrose Is receptions were purely Greeted in political, while the Eplirata principal address of the day, delivered on historic ground, was a historical review, punctuated with pa triotic sentiment. He spoke from a grandstand in Ephrata Park, and that interest had been stimulated to an acute pitch is shown by the fact that more than 3,000 persons, men and women, paid 25 cents admission each to "sit under him" and hear what he had to say of the development and glory of the American Republic. It was evident that Senator Penrose did not know an admission was to be charged until he reached the gate, and there was some foreboding among his retinue lest the audience would be small. This uneasiness was not well founded. A constant stream of people flowed through the gate and they were still arriving when he was introduced by the Rev. Dr. Zerfass, a public school teocher, a Seventh Day Bap tist and, as he expressed it, "a Repub lican stump speaker ever since he was in his teens." Democrats throughout the State are manifesting considerable uneasiness over the meeting of the executive committee at the State Windmill in Market Square on Wednesday. Democrats It is feared that the Uneasy at row in Philadelphia Prospects may arouse resentment in other counties, and it is possible that a scheme may be worked to have the whole thing re ferred to a committee for investiga tion so that it can be held over the heads of the Old Guard. The Hunt ingdon county contest is expected to bet settled pretty speedily, as It Is a local tight and the county is bound to go for Brumbaugh anyway. The com mittee will talk finance, campaign plans and other things and be given a chance to Inspect the candidates, i Gates open at noon.

ROOSKVKI/r'S HEALTH [From the Phlla. Public Ledger] Ex-President Roosevelt's health causes considerable anxiety. He re turned from South America bearing teh marks of the insidious jungle fever. His once vigorous bodily health was much reduced, and his medical advisers have urged him to take a long rest. It Is sincerely hoped that he will obey the doctor's orders, and return to public life with renewed health and enthusiasm. Theodore Roosevelt, more than any American since Lincoln, appeals to the popular imagination. Many of the characteristics which men admire are expressed in his aggressive person ality, and whether one agrees with him or not one must admire the dra matic action of the man. For some years he has been the most striking figure on the American stage. If com pelled to retire for a season he will be missed by all classes of his country men. Mr. Roosevelt has been a Presi dent, a typical expression of individual Americanism, and a party; he Is more widely known and respected through out the world than any other living American. In this period of pause and physical disability, he has the sympathy of the entire nation. The American people may dlqer widely in their political opinions, but they all agree in admir ing a good fighter and recognizing a real man. Proclaim we are glad we were born In a land The best that Is under the sky, And are proud of that truly Ameri can day.
