MONDAY EVENING, APGI'ST 24
FAKE PATRIOTISM
IT Is announced this morning in the
court bulletin of the Democratic
candidate for Governor that he and
his associates of the Democratic
State committee are about to launch
Bn organization of hoys as a nonpar
tisan league, to he called "The
Friends of Pennsylvania." He ex
plains that the organization is to
"make permanent the downfall of cor
rupt politics," presumably through
the election of McCormiek and other
Democratic candidates. The man who
wants to be Governor states that there
is nothing in its nature to tie up the
organization exclusively to any one
party, as "we want to increase pride
in Pennsylvania and so to purify the
State politically that nobody will have
reason to blush for his citizenship in
Pennsylvania."
In the pledge to which the members
of this wonderful organization are
supposed to subscribe is a promise "to
use my sincerest aVid most intelligent
efforts to learn the facts concerning
political conditions and candidates for
public office."
Nothing is said about the out
rageous use of money in politics by
the Democratic candidate for Gov
ernor, who is back of this remarkable
movement, or of the breaking down of
the system of merit in appointments to
office by the Democratic machine, or
of the insincerity and hypocrisy of
the men who are seeking to mislead
the boys of the State by fake appeals
to patriotism.
It's a fine Mttle game to arouse some
enthusiasm for a dying cause by dis
tributing a few thousand buttons to
the hoys in the hope of having them
yell for the little men who are now
wabbling around in an effort to dem
onstrate their fitness for high office.
It is quite probable that they will find
the boys of Pennsylvania more fa
miliar with the real conditions in this
State and its splendid history than are
those who propose to use them in
booming small men for big offices.
Doubtless impressed by the scandal
ous use of money in forcing unpopular
candidates on the party in Pennsylva
nia. the Democrats in Congress are
(taking action. Drastic amendments
•looking to the elimination of the use of
'large sums of money in political cam
paigns were adopted in the Rucker bill
'by the Senate privllrges and elections
committee, in reporting the bill favor
ably to the Senate. There is said to be
little opposition to the bill.
THE ENTERING WEDGE
IN order to establish and have paid
by this government millions of
dollars of Civil War claims in the
South, the leader of the Demo
cratic majority in the House of Rep
resentatives has proposed that it shall
not be necessary to prove the
"loyalty" of the claimant to the gov
ernment at the time of the war.
This Is the entering wedge. Once
this proposition passes the Congress,
the Treasury will be swamped with
(Claims from every cross-roads south
of Mason and Dixon's Line, and Uncle
•Sam will be fotjeed to pay what
actually amounts to a money premium
.upon the disloyalty of men who are
no longer content with his generosity
In long ago removing all civil dis
abilities that they incurred by their
rebellion against him.
AN AGGRESSIVE FIGHT
AS was recently indicated by one
who is more or less familiar
with the history of Pennsyl
vania politics, the Republicans
of this State twice lost the governor
ship since 1860 by making defensive
campaigns: but if the Democrats and
their allies have any idea that the
campaign of 1914 is to be defensive
they will awaken to a realization of
the fact that the Republican host
■which Is now being mobilized in every
section of Pennsylvania is going to
make the most aggressive fight in
,the history of the party. There will
be no defensive tactics at any stage
of the battle and the little men who
are hopplpg about like corn on a
griddle will know a lot more about
politics when this campaign Is over.
It was the hope of these little man
that they could befuddle the voters by
frequent yells about a platform,
wholly unmindful of the fact that the
Republican nominees made their can-,
MONDAY EVENING.
vara Before the people in an open
primary on a fair and square declara
tion of their principles.
As the Telegraph has said before
on this point, the people of Pennsyl
vania are not so much concerned In
this year of our Lord about bigh
falutln and spectacular declarations
of alleged principles as they are re
garding the qualifications of the men
who are now seeking office.
Party platforms are interesting in a
way, but they are not vital under the
present primary system. At all events,
Senator Penrose, Dr. Brumbaugh,
Mayor Frank McClaln, Henry Houck
and the other Republican nominees
will have ample time to meet the peo
ple of Pennsylvania face to face be
tween now and election day and
discuss with them the issues—the real
issues of the campaign.
THRIFT HAS ITS OWN REWARDS
FROM newsboy to president of a
corporation with an annual
business of $1,000,000 in four
teen years, is the record of Max
McGraw, now. at the age of thirty
one years, one of the leading business
men of the Middle West and president
of a manufacturing company with of
fices In Sioux City, Omaha and Los
Angeles
And Mr. McGraw got his start by
saving money, having embarked in
business at seventeen years of age
with SSOO which he saved from the
earnings of a newspaper "route" which
he "carried" for five years and a half.
The route was seven miles and a
half long and young McGraw covered
it twice a day on horseback, summer
and winter, all those years, and stud
ied evenings.
Is it any wonder that such indus
try and thrift have so early won suc
cess?
Alluding to the fact that so many
Greek immigrants here find employ
ment as bootblacks, a newspaper wit
said: "The Greeks did not do very
well at the Olympic games, but they
shine in America."
The story of Gus Travlllas, of Chi
cago, shows that grit and thrift are
not the exclusive possession of any
one nationality, and the Greeks can
succeed here as well as persons of
any race In America, which is the
'melting pot" of many nationali
ties.
Ten years ago Gus was a newsboy
on one of the busy street corners of
Chicago. He early became a savings
depositor, and as his balance in the
bank grew, he kept his eyes open for
opportunities, and with the timely aid
and counsel of his banker he made a
number of successful deals.
He now owns six nickel moving pic
ture theaters and other property. Any
time he wants it, he can borrow
money at the bank on his note.
Colonel Mayo, the richest man in
Kentucky, died a few weeks ago.
Twenty-five years ago he was a
struggling school teacher in Eastern
Kentucky. At forty-five he had a for
tune of $20,000,000. His fortune grew
from the meager earnings he saved
from his salary as a country school
teacher.
In teaching in various districts Mayo
had gained an intimate knowledge of
the mountain country's mineral and
timber resources, and became ac
quainted with those sections richest in
mineral wealth.
He discovered that thousands of
acres were occupied by "squatters,"
many of whom would give options for
$5. Later he borrowed all the money
he could to put into these options.
When the development of the Eastern
Kentucky coal fields began he was
able to interest railroad officials and
to enlist capital to work his mines,
and was soon on the road to fortune.
Thrift always pays dividends.
THE LAST GREAT WAR?
THE feeling Is growing that the
war now being waged in Europe
will be the last great conflict of
its kind. It is doubtful If this
much to be desired end will be real
ized. The longer it goes, the greater
the slaughter and the more extensive
the destruction, the more likely is it
that some agreement as to at least
partial disarmament will be reached,
but to believe that the end of all war
is in sight is too much. We must not
forget that there is Mexico and South
America at our own borders; that
there is India, with its teeming mil
lions discontented with their condi
tions, and Africa with its savage peo
ples, not to mention a host of other
places scattered all about the globe
where the spirit of arbitration will be
slow to penetrate.
The European war will make for
international peace in Europe if it
goes to the length of arousing each of
the countries involved to the enormity
of entrusting their lives to the crea
tors of great militafr machines, but it
will not end bloodshed between clash
ing peoples the world over.
CARE FOR THE FARMERS
IT must be an awful jar for those
Democratic four-flushers who are
going up and down the State decry
ing the Republican Administration
and alleged indifference of Republican
officials for the farming class to be
confronted with the truth concerning
the situation.
More than 500 bulletins have been
issued by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture on farm topics
and thousands upon thousands of
these bulletins are going into the
hands of the farmers who will bo
benefited by the expert advice therein
contained. And, on top of all of this,
the State Department of Agriculture
is doing as much more for the agri
cultural interests of Pennsylvania.
These bulletins are of practical and
educational importance and have
been prepared by the leading experts
of the X'nited States.
The Democratic campaigners found a
beer keg in a tent at the Lebanon fair,
and were naturally Indignant. Vou
"see, the blame thing was empty.
AN EVENING THOUGHT
Genius can never despise la
bor.—Abel Stevens. j
f EVENING CHATI
.Masons of Harrisburg are mourn
ing the death of Charles J. Riesling,
which occurred at his home in Mari
etta last Thursday. Mr. Klcaling, who
was a member of many branches of
Masonry, was well known here, hav
ing frequently attended ceremonial
sessions of the local Masonic bodies.
Mr. Kiesling was also a member of
the Philadelphia Rifle Club. In Ger
man societies he was very active, be
ing affiliated with the Cannstatter
Volksfest Verein, Columbia Gesang
Verein and many others. He was a
manufacturer of cigars sold all. over
Pennsylvania.
The hay fever season is on. and a
large number of Harrisburgers who
are atllicted with this peculiar mal
ady aro m the throes of sneezing,
with the accompaniment of red eyes
and a tickling palate. Some of the
victims make a pilgrimage to Kane.
Pa., or to other spots that are also im
mune from the malady. The other
day, in a downtown quick lunch, two
men were discussing the curious end
of-summer affliction, and one of them
ventured the theory that it was
caused by a germ, and that if one
could destroy the germ the sneezing
would cease. "This theory Is about
as interesting," said the hay fever
victim, "as the man with a cure.
Everybody you meet will tell you how
to relieve the frightful affliction. Dur
ing the past twenty years 1 have tried
nearly everything, and I find that the
only jcure Is to get away to an im
mune spot. That differs, too, for dif
ferent constitutions. For instance,
persons in the mountains may be
benefited by a visit to the shore, and
those living at or near the shore
would be immune when they went
to the mountains."
One sport the war is not having
any effect on is trap and live bird
shooting. Within the past twelve
months Interest in this pastime has
increased so rapidly that at present;
100 per cent, more shooters partici
pate in the weekly and monthly events
than one year ago. Ammunition, fire
arms, targets and everything needed
by a shooter are made in America.
There is not a State in the Union that
does not have its sportsmen's associa
tion. Pennsylvania leads for shooting
associations, and each week trap and
live bird events are held at a dozen
or more places. Live bird shooting
is not so frequent as in years past.
This is due to the offer of special
prizes by powder and firearms manu
facturers for target scores. However,
during the Spring and Fall seasons
live bird events are h#ld, as this is a
good time of the year to get fast
flyers.
The deep hole Just below the breast
of the nearly completed dam across
the Susquehanna at the lower end of
the city Is rapidly becoming one of
the most popular swimming holes
near Harrisburg. Almost any hour of
the day and any day of the week. If
you look out along the breast of the
dam you will notice at least a dozen
sunburned boys disporting themselves
about the deep water Just below the
dam. One of the most popular spbts
is just off the breast where r it crosses
Peace's Island. Here the currents,
swipling through one of the gaps in
the dam, have washed out a deep
hole. Some of the hoys have built a
springboard, using the top of the dam
as a fulcrum and some of the concrete
slabs that will be used to close the
gaps in the dam as weights. It is an
ideal swimming place. Many even
ings there are more than two-score
boys from 7 to 17 bathing there. It
isn't necessary for them to have a
boat, as they can wade out to the end
of the dam and then walk out to the
swimming hole along the breast.
The Rev. Harry E. Ulrich, a young
minister who is filling his first charge
since graduation at college at the In
tercourse United Brethren Church,
Intercourse, Pa., is a Harrisburg lad
who is rapidly making good, accord
ing to all reports in the circles of his
denomination. He Is now home on his
vacation and he's telling all his old
friends this little story on himself:
"Soon after I took over my charge
at Intercourse. Lancaster county, I
had occasion to drive over to Green
bank, which is several miles away.
Somehow or other, I got lost on the
Lancaster county roads and finally I
stopped a hoy of about ten years who
was trudging along the dusty highway
and asked him if he could tell me
the way to Greenbank.
" Sure I can tell you." said the
youngster, 'Fact is, I'm on mv way
to my grandpop's over at Greenbank
myself.'
"So I picked the youngster up and
used him as a guide. While he was
telling. me when and which way to
turn I said, 'Boy, what do you do?'
"'Go to school.' grunted the lad:
'what-a you do?'
" 'l'm a minister of the gospel,' I
explained.
" 'Yes, hut what work do you do?'
Insisted my guide.
" 'Well, I try to show people the
way to heaven.' I further explained.
"For fully five minutes the lad was
as quiet as the grave. Then all of a
sudden he blurted out:
" 'Do you know, parson. I think
vou re a of a fellow to show any
body the way to heaven. Whv, you
don't even know the wav to Green
bank!"

speech was made by A. Mitchell Pal

considerably flabbergasted
Protest when a delegation of Beth
lehem steel workers, who
formed part of the audi
ence. varied the demonstration bv
booing Palmer when he declared
himself the friend of the Bethlehem

of the senatorial candidate remem

asserted that he was doing his best to

men lost their jobs in a week.
Evidences of that overwhelming
harmony of which we read so much
in the Harrisburg Patriot multiply.
Saturday State Senator
Richard V. Farley
sharply criticised the Farlev
reorganization leaders Itaps
for their management Reorganl/eiV
of the Democ ra 11 e
campaign.
"While I was a Ryan man at the |

primaries, I am for the ticket nomi
nated in November," he declared.
However, I am greatly disappointed
that the Slate leaders have not been
big enough to invite the Ryan men to
co-operate with them and appear to
be more concerned about strengthen
ing their faction than In promoting
party harmony.
"The latest efforts of the reorgan
izes—to establish a new city commit
tee and to make a bipartisan deal with
the Washington party on a Stat©
ticket—have undoubtedly hurt the
Democracy. There is no need for a
new city committee. The city com
mittee was good enough for Rudolph
Blankenburg in Iflll and it ought to
be good enough for Roland S. Morris
in 1914. It declared for Wilson for
President at the time that prominent
reorganlzers were for Clark. Last Fall
it stood up nobly for fusion and had
three places of magistrates stolen by
our Rull Moose allies, while we were
fighting side by side with them. To
establish a new city committee will
only keep the factional feuds alive and
will do the party no good. It Is the
essence of stupidity to cultivate fac
tional discord while seeking party suc
cess.
"The proposition for fusion Is ab
surd. It is unfair to the Democrats to
ask them to agree to fusion with the i
Washington party, while the Bull i
Moose platform denounces the Wilson i
administration and its policies. The
party ought to be big enough tq stand
up and fight for the President without i
entering into a deal with men who are
denouncing him."
On top of the Philadelphia outbreak !

supporters of President Wilson and

were defeated in the or-

sonal friend, stated that
he represented the na
tional administration and the State i
central committee, and both had
asked him to have the meeting ad- |
journed because only a week's notice
had been given. Ex-Police Chief B. J. j
Clark, Berry's friend, after calling at- I
tentlon to the fact that Dlvely had no
voice In the meeting, declared he did :
not propose to allow the State chair
man to dictate to the committee. ]
Whereupon Dively, carrying out a pre- I
vious threat, asked all friends of the
administration to follow him and left :
the hall. Among the dozen who left
were Democrat officeholders or expect- j
to-be officeholders.

I'REE TRADERS HOIST BY THEIU
OWN PETARD
[From the Philadelphia Public I„edger.]
Never at a loss to exploit a fallacy,
the free traders are vociferously declar
ing that the war has erected a barrier
against foreign competition, and pro
tectionists should be reveling in milk
and honey.
Yet about the only prices which the
war has sent sky high are for goods
which come in free. .Sugar, which the
Democratic tariff was to send down to
almost nothing. Is the chief offender.
There has been no corresponding ad
vance in American manufactured goods,
although, as the free traders say, they
have now absolute protection.
"Reveling in milk and honey!" Who
ever supposed that capital would Invest
in an industry requiring protection if
the protection were not assured for a
definite period? There have been two
or three weeks of war. and free traders
ask sn astonished country why it Is
that there are no new factories in op
eration as a result. Well, one to cm
ploy 4,0(V0 men is about to be built in
Philadelphia. If anybodv can give as
surance that the war will last long 1
enough, there will be many others.
A long war will compel America to
become self-supplying. That is the pur
pose of protection. That it is effec
tive free traders admit when thev sol
emnly announce that the withdrawal of
European goods from our market ren
ders manufacture by us of the articles
In question not only requisite but feas
ible. They are relying on the war to
save the country from the effects of.the
Democratic tariff.
