THE DIFFERENCE
DR. MARTIN O. BRUMBAUGH,
in a speech in the upper end of
Dauphin county on Wednesday,
said that he "dnes not believe
nny man should pay more to be
elected to an office than he expects
to receive in salary from it," doubt
less referring to Vance C. McCormick's
expenditure of $33,000 for the pur
chase of his nomination. That was
ns near as Dr. Brumbaugh came in
this county to referring to his oppo
nent on the Democratic ticket.
Dr. Brumbaugh's campaign is of
a constructive character. Personal
abuse does not enter into it. Mc-
Cormick summed it up well when he
paid: "Dr. Brumbaugh can preach,
hut I can light." And fight ho can—
with a bludgeon stuffed with dollars—
while Dr. Brumbaugh preaches the
gospel of .fair play and clean govern
ment.
Every speech by Dr. Brumbaugh
has been not only more than appro
priate, hut so tactfully has he handled
every situation as to win nothing but
admiration. The result has been con
stant additions to the ranks of his
followers and pledges of loyalty and
support, even when the gatherings
have been of other than a political
nature.
From the outset Dr. Brumbaugh
has insisted that he has no alliances
or agreements with any man or set
of men. His utterances have carried
conviction with them by the very es
sence of the truth which they con
tained. Every suggestion of making
deals has been spurned by this man
of impeccable integrity, who has stood
like a rock against every entreaty to
swerve from the course he mapped
out for himself. The latest evidence
of his immovable adherence to right
nnd determination has been his decli
nation to become a party to a deal by
which he might obtain newspaper
support for Governor.
This true Republican of the ideal
type has refused to be coerced, ca
joled, coaxed or badgered into mak
ing any sort or a deal with any fac
tion or combination which would re
sult in his going into office without
Bbsolute freedom to he his own Gov
ernor in his own way.
Dr. Brumbaugh's course in the
campaign, more clearly than anything
else, has stamped him as the sort of
»nan that Pennsylvania needs for
Governor. He has passed from his
lips the cup that contained the bribe
of powerful support if he would agree
to do the bidding of the Flinn-Van
Valkenburg clique, and stands before
the voters still pledged to do all that
Is In his platform and unhampered by
secret or public promises to do the
underhand work for any man or set
of men.
T>r. Brumbaugh stands for local
option and has said so repeatedly and
In language that was capable of only
one Interpretation by a man with an
unbiased mind. He stands for the
most advanced Improvement In the
laws governing the welfare of work-
Ingmen, women and children of this
State. He is the real candidate of
the plain people and his every act
has shown that he will be a Governor
they can trust, as he will hold them
and their interests above every other
consideration once he becomes their
chief executive, and he will not stoop
to the petty practice of personal abuse
in which his opponent is such an
udept.
Palmer says It "cost more than $14,-
000 to nominate Penrose." How much
more than *33,000, then, did It require
to nominate McCormlck?
TRAVEL AT HOME
EUROPEAN travel should give
people broader views and more
general intelligence. For some
it has been mere extravagance
«nd useless spending. It may be worth
nil it costs, yet it does drain hundreds
of millions of dollars annually from
our country.
On August 1 Europe closed up Its
hotels and railroads, opened Its ceme
teries. and went into the killing busi
ness. if the war ends soon many
curiosity seekers may then go over,
murh as the ghouls flock to a rail-
FRIDAY EVENING HAKRISBURG TELEGRAPH SEPTEMBER 18. 1914.
road disaster. Normal people will
tind Europe In turmoil for several
years. Everyone having leisure and
money for travel may well take this
time to familiarize himself with the
wonders to be seen at home.
The war should teach a renewed
respect for American ideas and Insti
tutions. While the powers of Europe
have been loading themselves up with
the barbarous Implements of slaugh
ter, America has been making better
highways, educating its children, re
moving disease and improving its
farms.
While Europe is now destroying
matchless relic# of the past, Ameri
! cans have been erecting churches and
| monuments, painting pictures and
Carving statues. Much of this work is
j crude, but much is very wonderful,
like that of our own State Capitol,
for instance. While foreign powers
are working off the cruel fevers of
barbarism, let us. here at home value
at its true worth all that our own
builders and artists have done.
There ougljt now to be in every
I American heart a renewed affection
for his native land. It should stand
for him as the home of peace, as the
land where love and science and labor
are the ideals, not blood and iron.
fine should realise better the gor
geous scenic beauty of our fair land,
and f.eel deeper interest in the abound
ing energy of American achievement.
Let the traveler then, until Europe
repents of its wild Insanity, seek to
learn more of what God and man
have done for his own native land!
THF CITY'S "FRONT STEPS"
NOW that the Susquehanna river
has dropped to Its lowest sum
mer stage and the opportunity
is ripe for clearing away the
refuse outside the "Front Steps," we
shall doubtless see all sorts of activity
in that direction.
It would be most unfortunate should
the tine improvement of the wall and
steps be marred In any way by failure
to remove the rubbish which has accu
mulated over a long period of years
along the shore line. Much of the
silt and accumulation of the years has
already been removed by the contrac
tors on the River Front improvement,
but there is still hundreds of tons of
this matter that ought to be eliminated
without delay.
When the dam shall have been
finally closed and the higher level of
water established 11 will not be so easy
to get rid of the rocks, trunks of trees,
old stumps and other materials which
will be a menace to those who are
fond of canoeing and motorboating.
But the more serious phase of the mat
ter is that the wall will lose somewhat
of its attractive character as a perma
nent improvement so long as the dirt
is permitted to obstruct the free flow
of water nlong the steps.
The contractors have made splendid
progress during the summer, and it is
now practically certain that the en
tire undertaking will be completed at
least to Maclay street before cold
weather. This means that arrange
ments for the big river carnival next
summer will go forward during the
winter.
It is also the Intention of Commis
sioner Taylor to put the slope in pre
sentable "shapei as rapidly as possible
and to follow with the-'-planting of
hardy shrubbery for the protection of
the embankment.
Altogether the improvement is
bound to attract the thousands of vis
itors who come our way every year.
More and more the citizens of Harris
burg are appreciating just what the
great work along the River Front will
mean for the future of the city, not
only in the esthetic character of the
improvement, but in the actual com
fort and pleasure of the people.
INVESTING MONEY AT HOME
1r is interesting to the newspaper
man, as he reads his exchanges, to
see how sharp the competition is
for new manufacturing industries.
Cities from far and near tumble over
each other with special inducements
the moment they hear that any con
cern contemplates a move.
Our town should be active in this
game, difficult as it is. Meanwhile
the fact is worth attention, that many
a town while campaigning earnestly
for distant concerns, is neglecting
chances that originate at home.
There are young men in this place,
as there are everywhere, who would
be perfectly competent to manage a
business proposition if they had capi
tal. They would like to start a new
industry here. Meanwhile money is
being sent away, because our people
don't know of hopeful chances to in
vest at home.
The concern from a distance that
may be attracted by special induce
ments may or may not stay when the
inducements expire. The concern
backed by home enterprise and capi
tal is rooted In home soil.
To many people the distant invest
ment looks more attractive. But it
might not seem so if examined on
the spot. Money invested at home
is under close Inspection, which
should prevent losses. Wherefore,
when our young men want a little
capital to start a new enterprise
their claims should have the most
careful consideration.
GOOD BYE DERBY
A GOOD many members of 'the
male sex will find at least one
pleasing result in connection
with the European war. This
is that the perennial derby hat, for
which no excuse has ever been found,
may be difficult or even impossible to
purchase this winter.
Practically everything that goes in
to the construction of a derby hat, to
say nothing of the velour and some
other kinds of head gear. Is import
ed. This applies not only to the rab
bit's fur from which the hat is woven
but to dyes, shellac for stiffening,
trimming of bands and braids, and
even sweatbands. One large Importer
believes that the supply of furs for the
manufacture of hats now on hand will
not last more than three months.
While on the other hand, the manu
facturer is of the opinion that we may
eventually come to wool hats and
these of light colors, because of the
lack of dyes to give them the somber
tones now most generally effected.
At any rate the derby will Have few
mourners If It disappears, and Amer
ican head gear may finally develop
something new to take Its place.
1 EVENING CHAT I
The recent fire at Penbrook has
drawn attention to a matter which is
commencing to agitate the minds of
many of the people living In the bor
oughs and countryside that ring about
Harrlsburg and which are a part of
the greater city, although differently
administered. This subject is fire
protectiom Steelton and some of the
West Shore boroughs have lire com
panies and apparatus which can
cfceck a bad fire until help can be
sent from Harrlsburg, but there are
others which are dependent on bucket
brigades or what assistance can be
summoned from the city. And the
way to get help is involved in much
red tape, although never has a re
quest been refused or service stinted
in any way. In fact, Harrlsburg fire
men have striven to reach scenes of
distress quickly and havo given ad
mirable aid. But the fact remains
that fires near the city can sometimes
get headway while the necessary pre
liminaries are being worked out. The
authorities of the boroughs and town
ships ought to have either their own
fire protection or else have an ar
rangement with the city whereby a
part of the expense is borne, with
understanding that aid is to be given
as promptly as is extended when a
call Is rung in from Third and Market.
If there is any book in the Harris
burg Public Library on Germany and
Austria that has not been looked over
a score of times this month it is not
known. The war in Europe has caused
no end of demand for books on Eu
rope and some of the Inquirers have
been school children and aged men.
The reference question bureau has
answered questions all the way from
the armed strength of Russia tp the
national debt of Servia.
Girard, in the Philadelphia Ledger,
pays this tribute to a man well known
here: " 'Everybody seems to be happy,
but nobody is doing much,' replied
Senator William S. Sproul when I
asked him how things were in Ches
ter. The Senator himself always ap
pears to be one of the happiest men I
know, and yet—well, you can now
Judge for yourself. Newspaper pro
prietor. political leader and successful
business man, the Senator has always
been a. stout and trusted Republican.
But here comes his best chum. A.
Mitchell Palmer, classmate at Swarth
more, fraternity brother, best man at
the wedding and all that, and runs for
United States senator. How Senator
Sproul can keep up that amiable
smile and say everybody in Chester
seems happy puzzles me. I don't see
how he can, under these difficult cir
cumstances, remain cheerful. Party
loyalty, party beliefs, and all that on
the one side; deep personal friend
ship and old college associations on
the other side—can't you see what
this keen-witted, jovial gentleman is
up against?"
C. Tyson Kratz. the man who put
the "pep" into the meeting of the
anti-liquor people yesterday and made
it such an entertaining event, is well
known to many Harrisburgers. For
years he has been a fighter for tem
perance and has been in the forefront
of every reform movement. He is the
man who upset the reduction of the
school appropriation ten or twelve
years ago and filed a series of suits
in court which everyone laughed at
but which resulted in victories. Mr.
Kratz has been bucking the powers in
Montgomery county so long that yes
terday's buttle was just amusement
for him.
Ex-Senator John A. Kisher, presi
dent of the Pennsylvania Good Roads
Association, was here yesterday at
tending to matters on the "Hill" and
looking over politics. He gave up
politics for business some time ago
and the state lost the services of a
valuable legislator. This coming ses
sion the former senator will take an
active part in behalf of better high
ways.
Third class city officials who are
discussing proposed changes to the
Clark act are going very slow about
the matter and some of them have
told City Solicitor D. S. Seitz that they
are watching the way llarrisburg
works under the new act. The truth
is that this city was such a conspic
uous success under the old act and
has buckled down to business after
fighting the present that everyone is
disposed to stop and watch. This city
has always been noted for the com
mon sense in which it has adminis
tered the third class city laws and
other cities have been following its
example and not bucking against
statutes unless they are well tried out.
Speaker George E. Alter, who was
here yesterday on business at the
Capitol, was tied up all day with
cases and remarked last night that, he
was as tired as though he had been
threshing.
"Treshing? What do you know
about threshing?" was asked.
"T was raised on a. farm and I can
farm yet," was the reply.
The Speaker Is noted as a lawyer
and legislator, but this was the. first
time that he developed a reputation
as a farmer.

PALMER INVITED
TO GET OFF EARTH
Pinchot and McCormick Sentiment
Swept Through the Anti-
Liquor Gatherings
STEAM ROLLER CHARGES
McCormick Gets Endorsement
After Some Very Harsh
Things Are Spoken
Congressman A. Mitchell Palmer
was invited to get off the Democratic
ticket and allow his place as candidate
for United States Senator to be taken
by Gifford Plnchot, the Washington
party candidate, as a square deal for
the action of William Faintheart Lewis
in stepping aside for Vance C. McCor
mick. at yesterday's conference of
anti-liquor forces. Thus one more
turn is given to the pressing machine
that has been erected to create senti
ment for fusion.
Yesterday's meeting was composed
of some splendid men, men who have
been in the forefront of reform and
temperance battles and the whole
thing would have been impressive if
there had not been such remarkable
unanimity of sentiment for McCor
mick and Pinchot. Only C. Tyson
Kratz and Jacob Snyder, of Blair
county, stood out for Brumbaugh and
they only made themselves trouble
some without affecting the result. -B.
Stiles Duncan, Democratic county
chairman of Perry; John T. Matt, of
Bedford, a revenue collector; Dr. R.
M. Little, a Philadelphia Democrat,
and John Brooke, who is helping
Frank Rhodes run the Delaware
county Democratic machine, were the
only backers of Palmer and they did
not work at it very hard.
C. Tyson Kratz openly .charged
that the delegates appeared at the
meeting set up for McCormick and
E. R. Buckalew, formerly of this city,
and now secretary of the Scranton
Y. M. C. A., who presided, always had
the iron hand behind the velvet glove.
Buckalew Is a new rival for the czars
of the gavel. He wore a sad smile
and had the appearance of endeavor
ing to make the unfortunates realize
that he was hitting them over the
head with the same feelings that ani
mate a father when he takes his erring
son into the woodshed.
With such a line-up it was not as
tonishing that the very excellent peo
ple comprising the conference forgot
the way they com
ported themselves at
home and howled in a Acted Like
manner more betitting a McCormick
a session of the Me- Committee
Cormick machine
Democratic State com
mittee than a sober conference of
earnest thoughtful men with their
minds and hearts bent on county local
option. Kratz said that they ran the
steam roller over him and that he
was given h dose of "gag law." Cer
tain it is that the meeting was very,
very disorderly and that some pillars
of propriety acted like ward heelers
and shocked the good gentlemen of
the Anti-Saloon League and various
other organizations who appeared to
be so eager to help McCormick. The
conference endorsed McCormick and
Pinchot. told Palmer he was a dandy
local optionist but should get off the
ticket and let there be union on Pin
chot; endorsed Creasy and McNair,
Democrats and the four Bull Moose
Congressmen, including Arthur R.
Rupley. The Rev. J. H. Daugherty
tried to get the conference to endorse
J. C. Clark who is a candidate for Su
perior Court, judge, but there was such
a rising of the friends of Judge P. M.
Trexler all over the hall that Daugh
erty's seconder withdrew his second
and the suggestion was dropped like a
hot poker. The conference declaration
was silent on the judgeships.
The Democratic and Washington
party State committees will handle
many of the details of their campaign
work together in the
next six weeks and the
Bi-Plwtjr spectacle may be pre-
Bosses in sented of Theodore
Agreement Roosevelt speaking in
Pennsylvania on an
itinerary arranged in
the Democratic State headquarters and
possibly with the Democratic-Wash
ington party gubernatorial candidate
by his side. State Chairman Roland
S. Morris and A. Nevin Detrich have
completed the series of conferences
commenced yesterday morning by
William Plinn and it was stated to
day that a thorough understanding
now exists regarding the campaign,
although when finances are mentioned
the folks at the State headquarters
say they do not know anything about
it. Dean Lewis will be sent out
through the State as an auxiliary to
the McCormick campaign party and I
Gifford Pinchot will be entrusted with
the job of getting, the dates from the
Colonel. Ijewis will keep going
through the campaign on a separate
trail from the Democratic and Wash- |
ington candidates unless a complete
fusion should be effected. Things are
stated to have been pretty well plan
ned out whether Palmer gets off the
ticket or not the Democrats and Bull
AFTER YOU ARE FORTY
Forty years is middle age or should
be. People who squander their youth
are old at forty; everybody needs to
give a little more caro to health and
careful living after passing the for
tieth milestone.
The reserve of strength is not what
it used to be. Nature needs a little
help If we are to continue the work '
and worry of modern life. To most
people Dr. Wlllams' Pink Pills, nonal
coholic. but a supporting tonic, gives
just the necessary assistance.
These, pills make the thin blood rich
and red, carry nourishment to weak
and inflamed nerves, increase the ap
petite and make digestion normal,
correct sleeplessness and most forms
of headache. Try them for any trou
ble caused by thin blood or weak
nerves such as anaemia, rheumatism,
neuralgia, sciatica, lumbago, indiges
tion, sick headache or St. Vitus' dance.
It Is surprising how many diseases are
due to thin and impure blood, how
quickly they yield when by proper
treatment the blood is built up and the
starved nerves nourished. Dr. Wil
liams' Pink Pills contain no poisonous
or habit-forming drugs and cannot do
harm.
Pamphlets on the treatment of dis
eases of the blood and nerves will be
sent free by the Dr. Williams Medi
cine Co., Schenectady, N. Y. Your
own druggist sells Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills.—Advertisement.
HEADQUARTERS FOR
SHIRTS
SIDES & SIDES
Aloosers expect to make a vigorous
tight at Washington by means of a I
Senate resolution investigating cam- !
paign expenditures.
There was some little apprehension
about the Democratic State windmill
to-day over reports that the Palmer
and McCormick primary
expenses might be drag-
ged into the limelight Dragnet
and that if the Penn- May Swing
sylvania Protective Union Too Far
is called up that other
organizations which took
sides with McCormick may get into
It. The Washington stunt Is one
which is very much boomed by Wil
liam Flinn. He went through it and
would like to turn it on his enemies.
The Democrats are afraid that he will
get the dragnet going too wide and
the head of the mule ticket have still
more to explain.
I POLITICAL SIDELIGHTS 1
—Wonder if the visit of the Cen
tral Democratic Club to Palmer at his
home will be intended to commiserate
with him after being kicked in the
face by the fusionists who are exert
ing pressure on him.
—lf it is not, why not postpone the
funeral services until after Novem
ber 3 ?
—Senator Penrose appears to be
well acquaitned with one Vance C.
McCormickk, judging from his speech
yesterday.
—Some of William Flinn's field
marshals appear to be studying nat
ural resources in other states.
—McCormick might stop asking
questions and answer a few of those
hurled at him lately. Especially the
Quay charge that Flinn is to benefit
through the highway deportment in
event of McCormick's election.
—Some very interesting McCormick
meetings are being held in this city
and county. The field committee ap
pears to lie well supplied with energy
at least.
That anti-liquor meeting had no
time for such sentiments as those ex
pressed by Henry Wilbur, one of the
most noted temperance men of the
State.
The McCormick roller was dented
some before it finally flattened out
Tyson Kratz yesterday.
—lt remains to be seen whether the
Colonel is as strong as an advocate of
someone else as he is as a candidate.
—Rumors that the Democrats who
did the applauding for McCormick in
Chestnut Street Hall Wednesday are
to form an association are unfounded.
—lt is not true that a picture show
ing Bill Flinn and Vance McCormick
shaking hands is to be put on the Bull
Moose banner.
—How different the Patriot of 1912
and 1914 in regard to one W. Flinn.
—McCormick's declaration that if
elected he will consider that Washing
ton party men as well as Democrats
elected him means, a division of pie
beyond what the Democrats planned.
