WANTED —TRIED MEN
P ISP HA PS no feature In the pres
ent contest for United States
Senator in this State Is so con
spicuous as the demand of the
people for experienced men In public
station. We have had so much of
political hysteria and insincere propa
ganda that the people are surfeited
with fake reform and now insist upon
constructive and substantial work.
This fact counts more largely than
any other one thing In the increasing
strength of United States Senator Pen
rose. He has demonstrated over a
long period of years his familiarity
with the needs of Pennsylvania and
without frills of any sort he has con
tinued to stand at Washington for the
policies that have always counted in
the prosperity of this imperial Com
monwealth.
Wherever he goes nowadays Senator
Penrose finds among those who are
pledging him their support men who
frankly admit that they have not been
on his side for several years. These
do not hesitate to say that they have
learned through severe personal ex
perience that statesmen and not theor
ists are now required in the counsels
of the nation. Business men declare
openly that they are for Senator Pen
rose because they believe him to be.
qualified as no other individual In
Pennsylvania Is qualified to represent
this State with all Its great interests
at Washington; that the election of
one not ln touch with the needs of
Pennsylvania would be a positive
menace to Its future prosperity and
development.
This name attitude Is observed on
the part of the tollers of the State
who have discovered through a woeful
experience that theories do not fill
the dinner pail or clothe their chil
dren. Impractical and visionary lead
ers succeeded in misleading a large
part of our population, but a great
light has broken upon thousands of
voters who have learned for them
selves that theory is one thing and
practice Is another.
Senator Penrose doubtless realizes
the personal hostility of a few men to
himself as a party leader, but indiffer
ent to their bitter attacks he is going
on hia way meeting the people, talk
ing with them, and learning at first
hand the conditions which have come
about through Democratic fallacy and
the free-trade experiment.
There are great masses of men who
had been acting out of harmony with
are Republican party and who are say
ing little about their Intentions, but who
will give vigorous expression to their
views at the ballot box in November.
No doubt remains of the election of
all the Republican nominees in the
general upheaval against an adminis
tration of the affairs of the country
which has been so disastrous to its
welfare.
Colonel Roosevelt Is strongly of the
opinion that the Monroe doctrine has
been largely responsible for our peace
with the world. He pointed out In his
Hartford speech Saturday night that
without this safeguard we would prob
ably now be at war owing to the dis
position of foreign countries to colo
nize on the American continent. The
Colonel also took a fall out of the
worthless treaties which have been
snapped as a Bplder's web during the
last two weeks. He stands for a navy
that will mean business and which will
prevent the encroachment of the out
side nations.
CONTROLLING OURSELVES
BEFORE the French Revolution
France was divided Into three
classes, or "estates"—-the No
bility, the Clergy and the Com
mon People.
We cannot close our eyes to the fact
that In America to-day, as far as
money matters are concerned, society
Is again divided Into three classes —
the Rich, the Poor and the Great
Middle Class, neither rich nor poor.
The very rich have their troubles,
such as unwelcome publicity and the
annoyances and insults of agitators of
one kind or another, to say nothing
of the burdens imposed by the care of
their fortunes and the enforced main
tenance of an elaborate scale of living.
The disadvantages and discomforts
of poverty aje too well known to need
more than mention as we pass on to
consider the sorrow* of the Great
MONDAY EVENING.
Middle Class, to which the great bulk
of our citizens belong.
At the present time this large part
of our population Is being ground, so
to speak, between the upper millstone
of the necessity of keeping up appear
ances and the nether one of the high
cost of everything.
Our grandmothers wore calico
dresses costing not more than 75 cents.
It would now take the price of ten to
twenty such dresses to buy a hat for
one of our daughters in the high
school. What Is more significant, our
grandmothers earned the dresses
themselves by working perhaps a
whole week at housework. Do our
young girls earn their hats?
Of course, times are different and
we don't expect our young daughters
to earn their millinery. But the fact
remains that the present generation
must pay exorbitantly for its clothing.
There seems to be something like a
conspiracy between the designers and
the manufacturers of women's hats
and dresses to prevent the develop
ment of a standardization of styles.
Every year brings a radical change
In cut, color and texture, compelling
the purchase of complete new outfits
unless a woman wants to be out of
style, which is nothing short of a
calamity from the feminine point of
view, or the masculine either, for that
matter.
This is one thing which for the time
is beyond our control, but there are
many others involving our expendi
ture of money which we can regulate,
and doing so is the only hope of eco
nomic salvation for us of the Great
Middle Class, for by so doing we are
enabled to save some of our resources
and build up a reserve fund the earn
ings of which will eke out our own.
Those who are wondering about the
high cost of sugar might inquire why
the Democratic tariff reformers de
stroyed the American sugar industry
for the benefit of the foreign sugar In
terests who are now unable to supply
the demand, compelling the American
consumers to pay war prices.
SUGAR PRICES
REDUCTION of the tariff on |
sugar Is blamed directly for
the present prohibitive price of
that commodity by Facts
About Sugar, the official organ of the
beet sugar Interests in the West, ac
cording to a dispatch from Denver.
This is something new. We have
long realized that the Democratic low
tariff has not brought with it the
promised reduction of prices, but we
had not suspected that it was directly
responsible for advances. However,
t is argued that with a protective
tariff which would Induce the develop
ment of beet growing sections, the
nited States would not be at the
mercy of the world's market and
would be able to supply itself with
sugar, irrespective of European and
Insular producers. The article in part
follows:

These arguments were referred to
, M CratlC pres9 when the
tariff bill was before Congress as the
pleas of the Sugar Barons." The
enemies of the people" and "friends
of high prices" were "making their
last stand," we were told.
Now that the actual conditions out
lined by those who knew the sugar
business a great deal better than the
little men who framed the tariff bill
have come to pass, how can the Demo
crats responsible for the Underwood
law hope to dodge blame for the
present high prices of sugar?
There Is no doubt that all the canoe
ists of the city win enter heartily Into
the plans for the big river ca'rnival
which will take place to celebrate the
completion of the River Front Im
provements on the 4th of next July.
Carnival associations should be organ
ized during the winter in order to work
out comprehensive plans for the biggest
day since Old Home Week.
UNCLE SAM'S CHANCE
WE print elsewhere to-day a
most interesting speech by
James Keeley, editor of the
Chicago Herald, before an
advertising association of that city.
His keen observations respecting
America's opportunity in the foreign
trade field are worth reading. If
there Is one bright gleam out of the
war cloud abroad. It Is the opportun
ity of an enormous trade expansion
for this country. Those who are able
to speak by authority declare from
official statistics that out of three
countries ln South American there
could be diverted to this country or
ders for goods amounting to almost
$500,000,000. In short, the prodigious
loss to Europe In the way of trade
would result ln an increase for Uncle
Sam of over two billions a year. It
is stated that the entire export trade
to South America from the whole
world Is worth about $900,000,000 and
that we should capture practically
the whole of it. In addition, the far
Eastern markets are being opened to
us as never before.
It's not going to be possible for the
Democratic bosses to escape under
cover of the dust of the European war.
Within the next few weeks the people
will have learned that the war In Eu
rope has simply aggravated a condi
tion which ought never to have ex
isted in this country.
["EVENING CHAT]
Governor John K. Tener, who fin
ished what will probably be his last
big public function before next Janu
ary, when his successor will be inaug
urated, when he Inspected the Na
tional Guardsmen at Mt. Gretna on
Friday, has made a record in sharp
contrast to one made by ex-Governor
Edwin S. Stuart. Mr. Stuart never
put on his high hat to officiate at any
ceremony that It did not rain. Mr.
Tener did not get his silk hat wet
once. Friends of the Governor are
congratulating him upon his record
and asking him If he hopes to inaugu
rate his successor In a day as bril
liant for sunshine as that upon which
he took the oath of office. It seems
that, barring his inauguration day,
when showers fell after the cere
monies, all Mr. Stuart had to do was
to put on his high hat and the
weather man did the rest. It rained
on him when he reviewed the troops
at camp, It rained when he spoke on
various occasions when procedure and
proper dress required a high hat, and
it rained when he went away to dedi
cate mounients. Incidentally, a story
is told on Capitol Hill, of how on
one occasion, when he hoped to es
cape the ducking which appeared to
come whenever he appeared with the
silk tile, fate spoiled all hopes, in
Winchester a monument was being
dedicated and the Governor was rid
ing from the site wearing his high
hat and enjoying the pleasant South
ern sunshine. He had referred earlier
in the day to cloudless sky when he
put on his hat. Everything was lovely
and the station was in sight when a
hose used for sprinkling the street
burst beside his carriage and show
ered everyone. Thus far Governor
rener has missed the rains, although
he has worn his high hat when occa
sion has demanded it.
Half a dozen Germans and some
men who looked like Austrians, but
who spoke an outlandish dialect, were
at Lnlon Station on Saturday night
J 1 ? V »? ry mucll disgusted state. They
had been summoned to return for
war service and some time ago had
packed up, kissed their friends good
by and started for New York. They
waited around New York for a time
an .,. found that the ships had quit
sailing for their lands. Most of them
used up what money they had keep
alive while waiting for ships, and
as there were no accommodations
tney Just came back to Pennsylvania
and were headed for the coal regions
to go to work in peace.
The golden road is commencing to
make Its appearance along the roads
nea,r the city, and some splendid
specimens of the typical American
flower are to be seen within a few
minutes walk of the built-up portion.
The golden rod makes a most attrac
tive autumn decoration and the won
der is that It is not more generally
employed. Some of the stalks to be
seen along the roads are four feet
high.
The last week or so has brought
more people to the city on automo
bile parties than in any previous pe
rod this summer, and judging from
what they tell the hotel clerks, it is
because the roads are being put into
shape. The enforced cessation of
maintenance work last Fall cost this
city a large amount of patronage, be
cause the highways toward Fall got
into a state that made traveling any
thing but enjoyable. But the High
way Department appears to have
wrought wonders in many localities in
spite of the short time it has been at
work, and travel is booming with
hundreds coming to Harrlsburg to see
the State Capitol and to look over the
city.
Folks on Capitol Hill are congratu
lating E. A. Jones. Deputy State
Highway Commissioner, on the issu
ance of a patent to him and his
brother, John E. Jones, for an auto
matic stoker which will solve a prob
lem that has long vexed manufactur
ers and others who use the fine coal
recovered from washeries of anthra
cite. An Immense amount of carbon
has been wasted because the very
tine coal, some of which Is ln minute
particles, puts out most of the fires on
which it is employed. It has a ten
dency to become so closely packed
that there Is no air space left. The
stoker invented by the. Messrs. Jones
will feed the coal and spray it over
the surface of the fire evenlv and in
such quantity as to aid combustion.
has been tried out in Scran'ton
where the waste dust from washeries!
which is much smaller than buck
wheat coal, has long been wanted for
fuel.
Some of the grocers of the cltv have
been victims ef practical jokers since
prices began to fluctuate and they
have to be on the watch for hoaxes.
The other day some jokers called up
a grocer in one of the outlying dis
tricts and, taking the name of a rival
began to give him tits for cutting the
price of sugar. As a matter of fact
both had advanced It and talked
about going up some more. The
"other man" fired back that he heard
that his rival had been doing some
cutting in other lines, and for a time
there were sharp Interchanges Then
the Jokers got the man they had im
personated on the telephone and
started to "jolly" him. He got mad
and called up a third grocer and
complained about the wav he was
being treated. Just then the jokers
got No. 3 grocer on another tele
phone, using the name of the man
who was talking to him. The first
grocer will not believe that he was
being "kidded" yet.

THE CHAP OF IRON NERVE
By Wing Dlncrr
Tou talk about the chap who has
A lot of iron nerve,
Because in war on land or sea
He leaves his home to serve.
>
I will agree It takes a heap
Of grit to ntand In front
Of belching guns and cannons to
Help bear the battle's brunt.
But in this war we're Introduced
To men of sunny France.
Who volunteer for work in which
They haven't got a chance.
It is the chap who aeroplanes
Some thousand feet in air
To ram the enemy's balloon
Which may be scouting there.
He knows before he leaves the earth
Just what the end will be—
That he's the nerviest of them all,
I think you will agree.

County Will Give Republican Ticket
Substantial Majority at No
vember Election
M'CORMICK IS GOING SLOWLY
Unable to Make Much Impression; |
Dean Lewis Continues Ac
tive on the Stump
• '
Franklin county will give a substan
tial majority for the Republican State j
ticket and It is a question whether
Democrats or Bull Moosers will run
second. This was demonstrated on
Saturday when the Penrose party
spoke at half a dozen places and re
ceived the greetings of many men who |
had been active in various insurgent
movements, the welcomes extended to
the Senator being in striking contrast
to the manner in which the Demo
crats lined up by bosses received the
McOormlck party.
The tour of the county by Penrose,
was too much for McCormick and he
also invaded Franklin, going to places
where he liope(| that his " presence
would arouse some Interest. He found
the Democratic machine in bad shape
find so rusted and disjointed that it is
doubtful if financial lubricants can get
it back into running order.
Senator Penrose, ex-Congressman
Focht and others spoke at Chambers
burg and Dry Run. being well re
ceived everywhere. McCormick trailed
along and being prevented by the rules
of Dry Run from making a speech
broke loose at Chambersburg. Among
other silly things he did was to "chal
lenge" Dr. Brumbaugh to tell if he
was for the remainder of the Repub
lican ticket nominated with him at the
May primary.
Senator Penrose's speech at Cham
bersburg was a vigorous denunciation
of the men who are assailing the Re
publican party after
having been its bene-
Penrose Hits ficiaries. He did not
Hard at the pay any attention to
Machinists McCormick, which
probably accounts for
the savagery of the
Democratic candidate's newspaper to
day. The senator went after William
Flinn and other Washington party
men in the home town of A. Nevin
Detrlch. who is the chairman of
Flinn's machine committee, and it is
believed that from now on he will give
the Pittsburgher something to think
about. The senator also plans to make
some remarks about the Democratic
machine's workings, the post office
appointments having been under in
vestigation lately. The senator is to
speak at on Thursday, which
will be a big time in Iyebanon county.
Democratic machinists who have
been hoping: for fusion in order that
the defeat of their State ticket may
not be so overwhelming
were given a jolt by the
Bull Moosers on Satur- Tjetrls Keeps
day when the whole Actively On
State ticket, with excep- the Stump
tion of Gifford Pinchot,
who was fretting mar
ried on that day. turned out to make
speeches at the Progressive rally in
Lehigh county. The rally was not
attended by more than 600 persons,
but the sentiment appeared to be dead
agafnst any fusion with the embar
rassed Democratic machine. Dean
Lewis was the chief speaker and
no indications of ceasing his activity
on the stump. Many of his hearers
urged him to remain on the ticket and
fight the Democratic administration,
which has been denounced by Roose
velt.
I POUnCAI SIDELIGHTS I

with the Patriot's story of the visit of
McCorniick to Franklin county.

REVENUE
[Philadelphia Public Ledger]
The clearest lesson of the war Is
that the United States must not con
sent to abandon the sound protective
policy Intended to make It sufficient
unto itself. The war interrupted all
trade with Europe. It has deprived
lour manufacturers of material with
out which they cannot operate. Some
have already closed and others must
shut down unless a way is found to ob
tain the needed materials.
The tariff policy of the present ad
ministration, however, was based on
the theory that there was to be no
war, that the avenues of trada were
to be open continually.
It was on this theory that the pro
gressive reduction in the sugar duty
was arranged. When the final and
last reduction takes effect the domes
tic sugar Industry will disappear, just
as when the first reduction became
effective the thriving and prosperous
beet sugar business was hit a stag
gering blow. The production of sugar
in the continental United States will
be a thing of the past If this policy Is
allowed to reach its ultimate consum
mation.
The leaders In Washington should
come to their senses in time to pre-|
vent that disaster. If they cannot re
verse themselves on the question of
principal they can easily turn about'
face on the question of policy. The
country Is confronted with a serious
falling off In the revenues from the
tariff because of the cessation of Im
ports. Sugar, however, comer from the
countries with which trade can be
malntilned. For the purpose of con
serving the revenues, the sugar du
ties should be restored at once. If this
be done the revenue of $50,000,000
produced will cover nearly 40 per

cent, of the apprehended deficit;
i oreover a protective and revenue
producing tariff on sugar will preserve
the prosperous cane industry of Louis
iana and will encourage the beet
sugar growers to continue to produce
their profitable crop for the supply
of the home market.
THE BATTLE OK BLENHEIM
(August 13, 1704)
It was a summer evening—
Old Kaspar's work wus done.
And lie before his cottage door
Was sitting in the sun;
And by him sported on the green
His little grandchild Wilhelmlne.
She saw her brother Peterkin
Roll something large and round
Which he beside the rivulet.
In playing there had found;
He came to ask what he had found
That was so large and smooth and
round.
Old Ivaspar took it from the boy,
Who stood expectant by;
And then the old man shook his head,
And, with a natural sigh—
'"Tis some poor fellow's skull," said he,
"Who fell in the great victory.
"I find them in the garden.
For there's many hereabout;
And often, when I go to plough,
The ploughshare turns them out;
For many thousand men," said he,
"Were slain ln the great victory."
"Now tell us what't was all about,"
Young Peterkin he cries;
And little Wilhelmlne looks up
With wonder-waiting eyes—
"Now tell us all about the war.
And what they fought each other for."
"It was the English," Ivaspar cried,
"Who. put the French to rout;
But what they fought each other for
I could not well make out;
But everybody said," quoth he.
"That 't was a famous victory.
"My father lived at. Blenheim then,
"Yon little stream hard by;
They burnt his dwelling to the ground.
. And he was forced to fly;
So with his wife and child he fled,
Nor had not where to rest his head.
"With Are and sword the country round
Was wasted far and wide;
And many a childing mother there,
And new-born baby died;
But things like that, you know, must
be
At every famous victory.
"They say it was a shocking eight
After the field was won—
For many thousand bodies here
Lay rotting ln the sun;
But things like that, you know, must be
After a famous victory.
"Great praise the Duke of Marlborough
won,
And our good Prince Eugene."
"Why, 't WHS a very wicked thing"
Said little Wilhelmlne.
"Nay. nay, my little girl!" quoth he,
"It was a famous victory..
"And everybody praised the Duke
Who this great light did win."
"But what good came of It at last?"
Quote little Peterkin.
"Why, that I cannot tell," said he;
"But 't was a famous victory."
—Robert Southey.
