DAUPHIN COUNTY 10 SHARE IN CASH State Prepares to Distribute Large Sums of Money For Firemen and Townships Dauphin county will share in the distribution of hundreds of thousands of dollars by the State Treasury next week and more than 2,500 warrants are now being prepared by the auditor general's department as the first step. Fully 900 of the warrants will be for payment to cities, boroughs and first class townships of their shares of half of the income from State tax on prem iums of foreign fire insurance com panies. The city of Harrisburg and other places receiving this money ap propriate it to the firemen's relief funds. This year Harrisburg will get $2,053.78, and Steelton $223.77. Last year the city got $2,070.81 and Steel ton $232.28. Foreign fire insurance companies are taxed two per cent, per annum on their gross business in this State, and the tax from this source for the cal endar year of 1913 amounted to $411,- 059.02. Fifty per cent, of these re ceipts, or one per cent, of the gross business.is paid by the State to the in corporated municipality in which the business was transacted which gave rise to the revenue. The amount to be distributed among almost 1,000 cities, boroughs and incorporated towns, therefore, is $205,529.51. In the larger centers of population the checks will foot up some thousands of dollars and will be well worth receiving, but in smaller places some of the checks are as low as ten cents, while lots of such municipalities get nothing as no for eign fire business is done there. The remaining 1,600 or more war rants will be drawn in paying town ships the cash bonus from the State for maintaining the township roads; certification Is made to the Auditor General's Department by E. M. Bige low, the State Highway Commissioner. The township road payments come under the act of 1911 which abolished the work tax and provided that each township should get from the State an amount equal to fifty per sent, of the cash road tax it levies and collects, with a provision that not more than S2O per mile should be paid by the State in any one year. The Auditor General must pay the townships when the Highway department certifies the ; amounts due, as the townships report annually on the extent of their work and the cash road tax collected. Commercial Travelers Give Democrat Hard Jolt Perhaps one of the most significant incidents showing the rising tide of Republicanism in Pennsylvania was a little occurrence at the recent State convention of the United Commercial Travelers of Pennsylvania, which was held at Harvey's Lake, the popular resort near Wilkes-Barre. At this con vention were delegates from all the local branches throughout the State and the business situation was, of course, seriously discussed during the sessions. Perhaps the most delightful affair of the event was the annual banquet, at which Mr. Evans, a prominent Democrat of Wilkes-Barre and active In the association, was toa&tmaster. In the introduction of the several speakers he was most happy with one exception, and that was when he in troduced Postmaster Long, who had recently bp n appointed at New Castle. He extolled the new postmaster in elo quent phrases and especially dwelt upon the fact that not only were there Democrits present from the eastern part of the State, but Postmaster Long represented a body of Democrats in the western part, and he was particu larly glad because Postmaster Long was such a prominent Democrat. Before concluding his remarks he asked all who were Democrats t(« stand up and was shocked to find about the same representation as a stray timothy stock in a pasture field. The. small showing of Democrats was so marked that someone called for a rising vote of the Republicans present and practically everybody was on hrs feet with a cheer. Postmaster Long was so embar rassed by the small representation that it was some time before be obtained his balance and was able to proceed with his remarks. He cautioned the toastmaster that never again should he refer to politics in presenting him to an audience. This incident has been a. matter of much discussion among the commer cial travelers all over the State inas much as th«v had found in going about that the Incident at Harvey's Lake was simply an example of what is transpiring throughout the Com monwealth. BATTLE OF MILLIONS ON WATERLOO FIELD [Continued From First Page] describing what has happened to every German brigade, regiment, squadron, troop and battery mentioned. One is convinced from the official attitude at the Ministry of War and the Foreign Office that when their silence is heav. iest there is really no news of a deci sive character. They will not allow the world so have what Is indefinite. Now, from all along the fighting line the messages indicate very distinctly that the attempt to crush Germany Is in progress. One thing is certain, as the War Office has definitely announced. All engagements up to this time, with the exception of the siege of Liege—Ger many's great initial blunder—have been mere skirmishes between the out posts of great masses of men maneu vering for position. Even the drama tic march into Alsace, which has strengthened the moral effect of the French army wonderfully, was en tirely for the purpose of destroying the intelligence base at Muelhausen and occupying a strategic base for a flank movement on the Germans when the present greater battle to the north shall be well under way. Course Is Changed The best method to follow the pres ent fighting at long range is to draw a line on the map due south from Liege through Neufchateau to the Belgian frontier, then continuing south but de finitely eastward in the direction of Metz, then dropping more directly south through Nancy and strongly for tified Epinal and the impregnable Bel fort, where Bartholdi's huge crouch ing lion stares grimly out over Ger many to commemorate the city's re sistance in 1870. Then the line veers due east. A portion of the line from Liege to a point directly west of Metz—a distance of more than 100 miles—is likely to be the scene of the greatest conflict. Along this line are massed the great est part of the 2,000,000 men of the opposing armies. Following the German blunder at Liege all dispatches indicate that their latest attempts are directed to cutting through the north and west between Liege and Brussels. • Jumping on the may to a line south of Metz, according to French aeroplane This Monday Will Be Ribbon Day at!

The Germans also have apparently aban doned temporary any idea of advanc ing south of Liege into the valley of the Meuse. _ Should the line permit any German center advance for the purpose of closing in their right flank, we may see a second battle of Sedan.
