Boss McCormick's Patriot, exudes counsel and inspiration for the first voters in an appeal to them to turn to the Democratic party as the ark of safety, the sanc tuary of every good thing, including an "invincible" candidate for Gov ernor. The esteemed Patriot tells the young men who will cast their first votes in November, who want to start right and to align themselves "with the forces that make for the better ment of humanity," etc., etc., that the Democratic party "offers inducements they can find nowhere else." Note the kampalgn kitty of $33,000 for in stance. "It is the party of accom plishment. the party that does things for all the people." continues the or gan of the Invincible One. But the word "for" in this sentence should read "to" in the interest of accuracy and exact truth, because what the Democratic party under the present dynasty has done TO all the people is quite some. Further, we are assured in this same editorial paroxysm that the Demo cratic party is now "under the leader ship of men who have no superiors In the world to-day." Shades of Jeffer son and Tilden and Cleveland and Bandall look down upon the leaders of this day as they pass in review— Wilson. Bryan, Daniels, Redfield. Pal mer. McCormick—look upon them and hang your diminished heads! Hear the esteemed Patriot further declare In its own shrinking, modest way— In the State Its leaders are men against whom the breath of scan dal Is impotent because they are clean. They are the kind of met! who cannot help hut appeal to those who In the freshness of youth seek leaders who are clean and capable. There you are—capable, invincible, Napoleonic, and Waterloo Just a few weeks off. Parrot-like, the White House twins. Palmer and McCormick. continue their prattle about "Penrose and Penroseism" in the vain hope of stemming the ava lanche of public disfavor which Is mov ing rapidly in their direction and which Is certain to overwhelm and engulf them a little later. They say not a word about Palmerism and McCormick- Ism and the other little isms that are filling the air with sounding brass and tinkling cymbals. THRIFT IN THE SCHOOLS thrift taught in the schools? I It ought to be, but how?" This * is the response made to Presi dent S. W. Straus, who recom mends in a bulletin of the American Society for Thrift that thrift be em phasized in the public schools in the systematic activity and training of the pupils. With the opening of schools the awakened public feeling in regard to the imperative need for thrift teach ing is expected to make the year of 1914-5 a decided improvement over the past. C. P. Briggs. principal of the high school, answers at the request of Mayor W. W. Bennett for the city of Rockford. 111., and at the same time meets the argument that public schools of to-day arc undoing rather than preparing their graduates for their life work. Three hundred pupils of his school "got out and hustled" during the past summer vacation did ail kinds of work from hod carrying to office clerking—and the aggregate of their earnings was about $10,500. One of the boys, who had three years' experience in the manual training department at the high school, earned $3.50 a day. He started work the day school was dismissed and missed only one half day during the summer. Several worked as chauf feurs and made about $lO and sl2 a week. One worked on a farm and re turned to school on the opening day with $82.80. Many preferred to work in the «pen. on advice of their foot ball coach. Some, therefore, went Into partnership in h-uck gardening, and one was the proud possessor of $149, earned in ten weeks. Many of the girls also were busy. MONDAY EVENING, inside the home and out of it, and! some were able to show jreditaftle! vouchers in actual cash. Some worked j in factories, stores, and others took j entire charge of the household af-; fairs, nursed and cared for children. In his letter, forwarded by Mayor Bennett, Mr. Briggs says: Social workers, parents, educa tors—all alike have been interested in this data, if we are to Judge from the inquiries that have been received. • • • I do not uieftn to say that such facts have never been collected before, but the facts brought out In a very striking; way that not all 6t our high school boys and girls are rendered unfit for the active duties of life because they are attending: or have attended the high school. You doubtless have read the dastardly criticisms pub lished early in the year of 1»12, and wondered whether or not we ought to pay our good money to support such an institution as our free public schools if all that was said of them was true. To satisfy* my own mind, if possible, and jus i tify myself for being a party to such an infamous institution, for such It is if it is ruining the youth of our country, I decided to collect some data. I the pupils what i they had been doing and what they j had earned in this doing. • * There were practically no wane earners of any consequence in the i beginning class, and the earning capacity increased in proportion to i the length of time spent in the high school. Here in Harrisburg many of our high school boys and girls work, not only during vacation, but during the j school term in their hours out of school. What our boys and girls need ; to be taught is not so much how to ' earn money, as how to save It. A ■ high school course has come to be so expensive that many a poor man hesi tates to shoulder the hurden. Boss McCormlck said at Washington, Pa., that "no advances looking towards | fusion were being made by the Demo crats.'" State Treasurer Young, a prominent leader of the Progressives, says the Democrats are doing the fusion talking. And there you are. NO PARADE TO-DAY THERE was no Labor Day parade in New York to-day. For the lirst time in years the ranks of labor did not throng the streets of the metropolis. stayed at home and devoted its parade money to the relief of unemployed men and their families. In times past, in New York city, many thousands of union men have marched on the first Monday in Sep tember. The parades have been spec tacular. No money was spared in making them a success. The horses in the parade were union-shod and the men union-equipped. There were union bands and union badges. There were union-made uniforms and union refreshments. So that the expense to the union men for their Labor Day parade, in one way or another, led to an expenditure of a large sum of money. To-day the money must be saved that starving ones may have bread. How does this condition comport with President Wilson's assertion that hard times are "merellv psychological?" NO PRESIDENTIAL fPEECHES PRESIDENT WILSON has wisely decided not to make any cam paign speeches this Fall. Un questionably, as j ) says, his place is in Washington during the critical period through which the country is at present passing. The President is doubtless glad of so good an excuse to remain off the stump. In the light of his intention to run for a second term, any cam paigning he might do this Fall could be nothing but disastrous. The Dem ocratic party is headed toward defeat and if the President went out on the stump in defense of its candidates he would have to accept the decision of the voters in November as a personal rebuke. The President very likely sees the handwriting on the wall. Doubtless he is beginning to understand that the legislation he has heen forcing through is not so popular as he thought it was and that the Underwood tariff is to play a big part in the campaign. The proposal to apologize to Colombia and pay her $25,000,000 has not set well with the American people generally. The breaking of platform pledges to reward Democratic henchmen for po litical work is another thing that has set the people back home thinking. All this has caused a heavy dis affection in the Democratic ranks. Coupled with this, is the terrific Bull Moose slump the country over. There has not heen a primary, a bye-elec tion. or a registration that has not shown that the Bull Moose party has gone all to pieces. For instance. Ohio, which gave the head of the Progres sive party ticket 229,3 27 votes two years ago. gave Garfield, the Progres sive candidate for governor, only 8.167 in the primaries the other day. This Is less than one twenty-sixth of the vote cast two years ago. Democrats know that the Progres sives are going back to the Republican party. They also know disgruntled Democrats are going to vote where their votes will have the greatest force. That means they will vote the Republican ticket. So it Is these facts that have thrown such a scare into the Democrats. It is "a condition, not a theory" that confronts them. Voters at large know by the feel of things that there is trouble ahead for the Democratic party. Democratic Congressmen themselves have this "hunch." but what makes it worpe is that they are now hearing from their constituents who are writing letters in no uncertain terms. To make it still worse, the Democrats in Congress have been doing a little figuring on what actually happened two years ago. They know many Democrats were elected to Congress wholly through Republicans who voted with the Bull Moose and also that many other Democrats were elected by dis satisfied Republicans who voted the straight Democratic ticket to make their protest more effective. But this year the shoe Is on the other foot. Hence It is not to he wondered at that President Wilson Is well content to remain at his post and let the Demo crats of the country get along without the personal aid he might have been able to give them. Evidently he wants to be as far removed as pos sible from responsibility for the defeat that Is In store for the party this Fall. f EVENING CHAT 1 I 'ln till of my experience 1 have | never known as rigid application of | censorship on war news as we are t experiencing In the great war now in I progress in Europe." said a man ex [ perlenced in newspaper work and a wide traveler while here a few days 'ago. "I recall distinctly the days of the Civil War because 1 was a young man then and it was from twenty-four to thirty-six hours before we got au thentic information from the righting zone and It was within a few hundred miles of us much of the time. We did not know until after midnight of the day of Lee's surrender that he had given up, hut when we got it it was straight. The Franco-Prussian war was marked by prompt enough dis semination. but the news came from French sources, not from German, just the reverse of the present. We knew of Sedan In interior towns of Penn sylvania as soon as we knew of Lee's surrender. I recall, too, the rapidity with which we got news from the war In Turkey in the late seventies, but that was probably due to the splendid English correspondents in the field and to the fact that London was not as vitally interested in the war as she is to-day. In later days do you remem ber that it was not until twelve hours after the Spanish fleet had been de stroyed that Washington turned loose official announcement of the success of our navy and that, too, in the face of the fact that the streets were full of rumors in the afternoon that there had heen a battle? Then, too, re member how we got news on the night of May 1 that it had been "a sad but glorious day for Spain" long before we received official announcement from Washington that Dewey had per formed a wonderful feat? In this case the censorship is put on as a mat ter of protection to the warring na tions. but the trouble is that it is so complete that a very important object of censorship is defeated—preparation of the people for news of an official character. This war has been pro ductive of everything except news, and you have to dilute what comes about 50 per cent. To meet the demand for news the news associations have to take reports which are brought by soldiers, refugees or residents, and that is unconsciously colored and of such a nature that in ordinary times it would never be used without being closely followed up. Hence the stories of one day are denied the next. But most official announcements are just as bad." One of the most notable things about Harrisburg's success in the race for the Tri-State pennant is that the per cent, of the club !s over .700, a record that is unique in the country. Search of the standing of the leading leagues of the eastern part of the United States does not show any club with so high a rating. The peerless Athletics lead the American aggregate with a percentage considerably below that held by Harrlsburg and It is doubtful if any of the western leagues or any of the "bush leagues" can show a victorious team with such a high per centage as has been won by Cockill's men. "Ah. Some immigrants?" asked a man of one of the Union Station force the other day as he saw some for eigners flocking around. "OnCe. They're movers," replied the railroad man. "What are they?" "Oh. They are people who would like to go back because work Is slack in this country, but who do not want to return because they will he put into a uniform and sent to charge a ma chine gun. So they move from place to place hunting work. I'll bet that band has been in every steel town between Bethlehem and Gary," said the railroad man. Unless the county commissioners and the interested township authorities avail themselves of the contract sent to them for approval by the State Highway Department for improvement of the Union Deposit road, this county may lose a share of State money set apart for construction of highways on the State aid plan It is stated at the Capitol that the funds necessary to construct the State's 50 per cent, share of the highway will revert to the State Treasury and the county be deprived of their use unless the contract is signed. This is due to the fact that money not used or requisitioned within a certain period goes back to the gen eral funds automatically and some other county will get the benetlt. A good story is being told about a man who applied to be registered last week and who became insensed when asked his politics. He had answered the other questions put to him bv the registrars, but bucked when asked his politics. He did not know of that refuge of the man who does not want to tell which goes by the name of Nonpartisan and his gorge rose. "It's none of your business what I am." he retorted. "Well, there's a place here for it," said one of the officials who knew the v oter as an ardent reformer. "Don't care," replied the voter. "Say 'nonpartisan'," promoted a friend. "Nonpartisan? Nothing. Put me down as Nonvoting." said the dis gusted one. 1 WELL KNOWN PEOPLE 1 —Henry C.

That some of tlie machinery for the great locks of the Panama Canal was made in Harrisburg from llarrlsluirg-made steel? BRUMBAUGH AND THE FARMERS Doctor Brumbaugh tells the farm ers that what we need is "vocational training" in our country schools. Breaking that long word into small bits, the doctor means that the coun try school shall teach tbe country boy and girl the very things which they should know to keep them on the farm and to help them make the farm both a Joy and a profit. The doctor never made a cleaner bull's eye than that. We can talk "back to the land" until we are blue in the face, but nobody will go back except under two conditions, to wit: That the farm be made more agreeable 'socially, and that il pro duce more cash. Boys and girls who live in the country must be taught how to raise an entirely new crop of joy and a bigger crop of dollars. That knowledge will keep them on , the land and nothing else will do it. Harrisburg IjrfEjjftfr telegraph FUSION SCHEME IS n HIIIB MPS McNair Joins With Other Leaders in Criticising Dickers to Help Out McCormick DETRICH GETS A BIG JOLT Dr. Brumbaugh Simply Says Some thing Isn't So; McCormick Bund Beaten in Erie In spite of indications which they helieved would lead to an announce ! ment by William Draper Lewis that he would drop his Kubernatorial as pirations and allow Vance McCor mick to take his place as the Washing ton party candidate for chief execu tive of Pennsylvania, Democratic ma chine men were to-day confronted with the announcement that the dean inten'ded to keep a speaking date at Arnot. TioKa county, and might make more speeches later in the week. Con sequently the call for a meeting of the Democratic State executive com mittee to pass on the formalities of the deal will not be issued. The Bull Moose bosses have not said anything to-day and about all that has been given out is an interview with William Klinn, in which he says he is about ready to accept fusion. On the subject of fusion the Phila delphia Press of to-day says: "Hull Moose-Democratic fusion was attacked last night by William N. Mc- Nair. Democratic candidate for Secre tary of Internal Affairs, on the ground that it savored too much of a politi cal deal. Mr. McNair said he was in favor of every party fighting its own issues to the finish without attempting amalgamation with another party whose tenets must differ to some de gree. Regarding his own withdrawal in the interests of harmonious fusion, should such action be agreed upon by the leaders of the two parties, Mr. Mc- Nair declared that such a course would seem to him a betrayal of the people who had supported him in the primaries. This would especially ap ply, he said, to the Single Taxers. to whom he stood as an exponent of a vital principle." Dr. Brumbaugh and Senator Pen rose were out on the stump on Satur day at different ends of the State anil both received notable receptions. The Sen nrutnhaugli ator spoke to large Restates audiences in half a Platform dozen towns in the Allegheny valley and addressed two big meetings in Tarentuin and New Ken sington. He will be in Pittsburgh to day and go to Philadelphia on Wed nesday. Dr. Brumbaugh toured Bucks county, where he addressed • Jrange meetings and other gather ings. reiterating his stand for local option, recasting of the child labor laws, justice to workingmen and a workmen's compensation that will stand the test of the courts. The doctor received a notable reception and in districts which have been claimed by Democrats most of the population turned out to greet him. Palmer-McCormlek men were routed In their attempt to secure an endorse ment of the State ticket at the annual meeting of the Erie county Democratic com mittee at Erie on Satur- Eric Men day. The Eiebei faction Jump on steam rollered the "re- Machine organizers" as neatly as the McCormick machine ever did the "Old Guard." Not one word was said in the resolutions adopted regarding the State platform, and it was but a left-handed offer of support that was given. L.iebel and his followers went into the conven tion with the slogan "remember Ryan and Budd," and the meeting proved to be anything but harmo nious. Eighteen of the delegates upheld th« Palmer-McCormick end of the Democracy, while sixty-eight voted for Frank Enswort for county chair man, he being candidate of the Liebel faction of the party. The supporters of the State ticket attempted to put up a fight, but the steam roller, ably engineered by Can didate Eiebel and his first lieutenant, Joseph Rogan, completely flattened out the reorganization end of the party. Efforts to harmonize the contend ing factions of the Blair Democrats were conducted from Democratic State headquarters, even to the extent of sending Blair's one of the officials to | Democrats Altoona, but failed, and I Arc Split on Saturday the small faction adhering to A. V. Dively, who claims to be the representative of the machine, elected L. O. Burkett, the brother of a man recently named postmaster at Roaring Spring. The majority fac ! tion elected Thomas Lawley as chair j man two weeks ago. The two chair ! men are clamoring at the Democratic State windmill for recognition and a situation much like those in Hunting don and Susquehanna county, where the Democrats are at each other's throats, pre\<ails. Efforts have been made to smooth over the rows in the two latter counties, but even a spe cial committee which has never re ported, has been unable to do any thing. Dr. Martin G. Brumbaugh. Republi can nominee for Governor, last night i refuted a charge made by State Chair man Detrich, of the Washington party, | Brumbaugh that the "schoolmas- I Shatters ter" became a candi i Detrich diJate "when .last Spring he met Sena tors Penrose and Oli | ver in the home of Eouis Kolb in ! Philadelphia." Dr. Brumbaugh himself disliked to engage in a controversy with Mr. Det rich. but authorized a statement to be made on his behalf. This statement was: "There was no such meeting. It is doubtful if Mr. Kolb ever at any time had Senator Penrose in his home. At any rate Dr. Brumbaugh never met the Senators in Mr. Kolb's home as alleged by Mr. Detrich. Senator Pen rose had absolutely nothing whatever to do with the doctor's candidacy. He became a candidate when his friends In the Huntingdon Valley urged him to enter the race. Previously he had told fellow educators at Richmond that he would run if the 'folks in the valley' desired him to do so.'." Berks county Republicans started off their campaign with a meeting of the county committee which re-elected Chairman C. D. Worley and adopted resolutions endorsing the Republican | ticket. The speeches criticised the President sharply for the war tax. WINCHESTER PAIR Th<* C. V. n. R. will sell excursion t|rW»ts to Winchester.

A FIRE INSURANCE WARNING (United States Review) In view of the present abnormal financial situation in this country in- | cident upon the war in Europe, special effort is being made by fire underwrit ers to arouse the public to the im portance of exceptional care for the prevention of fires. All reasonable safeguarding in that direction is in order, of course, even under normal conditions, but at this particular time it is of the greatest public concern. No man can foretell when the next great conflagration is to come and add one more to the lurid catastrophes of the past, but every underwriter and thoughtful observer well knows that it may occur at any time. If it should happen to come while present conditions prevail, with the stock exchanges closed and the money market abnormally tight, the result to the fire insurance companies would in evitably be most serious, because in order to pay their losses they would be compelled to sell large amounts of their securities at lamentable sac rifices, which In all cases would add heavilv, and in some cases, perhaps, disastrously, to their aggregate money losses.

That means a short haul and a big price for produce. Philadelphia reaches over the heads of dozens of smaller towns to a dis tance of 275 miles for some of the milk it drinks. It reaches still farther for eggs and butter, and apples and for a part of its bread. With all its fine fields, it seems ridiculous that anyone in Pennsyl vania should ever have to cross the Atlantic to buy potatoes in Ireland. They won't when the rural school has made its curriculum in agriculture as good as its course in arithmetic, and when boys aiyj taught as much about soil as they are now taught about the rules of grammar. Hence when Doctor Brumbaugh, ex cellent school man that he is, tells men and women farmers that he stands for a system of schooling which puts money into the pockets of every farmer, he has come down to the sort of brass tacks which country people like to see driven home with a sharp blow.—"Girard" in Philadolphja Led ger. Thin Blood and Dyspepsia Thin-blooded people generally have stomach trouble. They seldom rec ognize the fact that thin blood is the cause of the indigestion, but it is. Thin blood Is one of the most com | mon causes of stomach trouble. It af fects the digestion at once. The glands that furnish the digestive fluids are diminished in their activity, the stom ach muscles are weakened and there is a loss of nerve force. In this con dition nothing will more quickly re store appetite, digestion and normal nutrition than good, rich, red blood. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills act directly on the blood, making it rich and red, and the enriched blood strengthens weak nerves, stimulates the tired muscles and awakens to normal ac tivity the glands that supply the di gestive fluids. The first sign of re turning health is an improved appe tite and soon the effect of these tonic, pills Is evident throughout the system. You find that what you eat does not distress you and that you are strong and vigorous Instead of irritable and listless. You are now on the road to health and care in the diet is all that you need. The Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Schenectady, N. Y.. will send you a little diet book free on request.
