THT'RSDAY EVENING, SEPT. 24
PATRHOT "PATRIOTISM"
WITH that curious obsession
which is inseparable from
the exaggerated ego. the per
sonal newspaper organ of
the Democratic candidate for Gov
ernor says to-day:
The action of Dean Lewis in
withdrawing from the race for
Governor and throwing his sup
port to Mr. McCormick. and the en
dorsement of this action by the
Washington party committee, meet
with the hearty approval of the in
dependent voters of the State every
where. The only ones who object
are those curious political perverts
who are so saturated with the virus
of Penroseism that they cannot
comprehend the patriotism involv
ed in these acts.
This is of a piece with the same
newspaper's comment upon anything
and everything which is contrary to
its ideas of "patriotism." Everything
Is "patriotic" which tends to help the
McCormick cause; everything is "cor
rupt arrd indecent" that is contru.y to
the preconceived notions of the little
men who are floundering around in
their own inconsistency and hypocrisy.
The statement that the deal in this
city, whereby McCormick was pre
sumed to take over the assets of the
"Washington party, has met with the
"hearty approval of the independent
voters of the State," is refuted daily
■ln the protests and return to the Re
publican party of hundreds who iden
tified themselves with the third party
movement two years ago. Palmer's
attack upon Pinchot and Roosevelt's
assaults upon the Wilson Administra
tion demonstrate quite clearly how
harmonious are the elements of the ,
alleged fusion in Pennsylvania.
Instead of the independent voters of
the State being in accord with the
outrageous political deal that is char- ,
acterized by the Harrisburg Patriot
as a fine example of disinterested "pa
trlotism," they are showing their dis
gust in every county throughout the ,
Commonwealth. Scores and hundreds
of decent Democrats are also out- ,
spoken in their opposition to the ■
Palmer-McCormlck outfit.
MADE IN HARRISBURG
THE "Made in America'"* dele
gation of Lehigh Valley Rail- .
road officials that has been visit
ing towns and cities along the
line of that road, urging manufac- ,
turers to enter the foreign field, is
doing a great piece of constructive
■work.
We in Harrisburg long ago rec
ognized the fact that the export mar
ket offered quite as many opportunl- j
ties as that at home. Our steel plates
buffet the waves In ships under many
flags in all parts of the world. Our
tinplate ware is used in a dozen .
countries. Our pipes carry water in
the Philippines, Spain, Mexico and
China. Our engines pump mines and
provide light and power in Mexico,
South America, Cuba and other far-off
lands. Our turbine wheels generate
power for the Panama canal, the great
continent to the south and in many
foreign countries. Our shoes have
long been favorites in the tropics and ,
Bemi-troplcs. Our bridges span the
gorges of India. The whole world has
been our patron. Yet we have barely
scratched the surface of market possi
bilities.
There is much room for missionary
work here such as the Lehigh Valley
is doing for the patrofis who con
tribute to its freight receipts. The
manufacturer and the railroad are
inter-dependent. Neither could get
along without the other. It would
seem good business, therefore, for the .
Pennsylvania to pattern after the
Valley In this matter. The
"Made in Harrisburg" tag is pretty
well known abroad, and while we
ought to have and will have more for
eign business than we have, there are
other communities along the main line
that need Instruction far more than we.
A BIG DEMOCRATIC-TAX
TRY as they may, the Democratic
party bosses cannot escape the
wrath of the people in the mat
ter of the enormous taxes which
are now about to be saddled upon
them under the pretext of a war
necessity. This country is not at war
with anybody, but nevertheless we are
THURSDAY EVENING, OXRKISBURG ££l|& TELEGRAPH' SEPTEMBER 24, 1914.
advised from Washington, from day
i to day. that the program involving ad
ditional taxes of *105,000,000 will be
forced through, perhaps during the
I present week. Senator Burton In the
j Senate, and Representative Mann in
!the House, strong Republican leaders,
| have been doing their utmost to stem
; the tide of Democratic extravagance
! at the expense of business and lnilus
• j try, but the juggernaut of Incompetence
• rolls on. Not even the approach of an
. election—which It might be thought
would have a tendency to check the
| orgy of expenditure—has had any ef-
I feet upon the hungry horde now en
!! gaged In the big taxation program,
i Discussing the unusual situation
and the utter disregard of the Demo-
I cratlc party for its pledges of economy
| and reduction in the high cost of liv
ing, the New York Sun says:
But will the House, fresh from
the passage of the new tax bill,
with the elections only a month
away, be in a mood to advertise Its
contempt for economy and Its vio
lation of its platform pledges after
the surrender of the bill's defender
in the Senate and the scarcely
veiled opposition of the President
to Its reckless provisions? We
doubt It.
Senator Burton has won a splen
did victory. Perhaps its full ef
fects may be displayed In a new and
proper system of river and harbor
Improvement. Should this not turn
out to he the case his brilliant
struggle has been amply repaid and
the admirable rules and customs of
the Senate which made his stand
for Justice to the taxpayers pos
sible have been abundantly Justi
fied.
From all parts of the country are
going up protests against the Infamous
plan of Increased taxes when business
and industry are lagging, but the ad
ministration leaders, indifferent to the
approaching storm, go on their way,
laughing at a burdened people and
striving to hide behind the European
war.
There never was a better Illustration
of the truth of the old saying, "whom
the gods would destroy they first make
mad."
JOHN GRIBBEI/S SACRIFICE
A RECENT utterance of TaJcott
Williams, head of the new-
School of Journalism of Colum
bia University, is recalled by
the resignation of John Grlbbel, vice
president of the company publishing
the Philadelphia Public ledger. Mr.
GribbeL conscientiously opposed the
endorsement of Mitchell Palmer for
the United States senate by that news
paper. The endorsement was made,
nevertheless, over his head, and his
resignation followed.
Mr. Grlbbel made a great sacrifice
for the principle involved. He could
not stand as a newspaperman for
something in which he did not be
lieve, no matter what the pecuniary
rewards might be. He is the type of
Journalist Mr. Williams had in mind
when he said:
I have known many newspaper
proprietors to make immense sacri
fices in the cause of truth. And,
on the other hand, I have known
men who have given up their posi
tions rather than do the things
asked of them. Of all secular call
ings Journalism has the most
martyrs.
Sane in his views and true to his
convictions, John Grlbbel could not
lend himself to the endorsement of a
candidate who is no more nor less
than a professional politician pledged
to every policy to which the Public
Ledger professes to stand opposed.
He is a type of which Journalism may
well be proud.
THE NEGRO'S PROGRESS
UNDER the heading "A Half
Century Anniversary of Negro
Freedom," the State of Illinois
announces that in August, 1915,
it will celebrate in Chicago the birth
day of full liberty for the negro in the
United States. The commission having
the celebration in charge has gathered
'much enlightening Information as to
the manner In which the colored race
has responded to its emancipation.
The commission finds that freedom
has done much for the American
negro. It has given him over 20,000,-
000 acres of land to till for himself,
according to the report. It has
reduced the percentage of illiteracy
from 90 per cent, to 30 per cent.,
while the black population has been
increasing from 4,500,000 to nearly
10,000,000. In half a century the
number of negro churches has In
creased from a little over 400 to
31,000 more than that number, or
7,850 per cent. In 1863 there was but
one periodical published by negroes.
Now there are 398. Negroes operated
100 insurance companies _ and 72
banks in 1913. A score of other in
stances of the material prosperity of
the negro race are cited In the report.
But, great as It has been, it is not
the material progress of the negro
that astounded the commission most.
To quote the report: "Our information
blanks have gone and returned from
every part of the world where civil
ized negroes live. They prove beyond
a doubt that the intellectual, moral
and spiritual uplift of this Important
portion of the human race exceeds its
material growth. Especially Is this
true in the American republic, where,
from former contempt and ridicule,
they have passed to the sympathy and
wonderment of their white neighbors,
while from their own souls the negro
people have arisen from apathy and
self-depreciation to more and more
just and manly self-assertion."
These are facts that should encour
age every negro to better efforts. No
men anywhere are doing nobler work
under more difficult conditions than
are the leaders of the colored race
in America to-day, as typified, for in
stance, by the late lamented Professor
Day or our own Dr. Marshall.
Looks like President Wilson will
have a fine opportunity for more
"watchful waiting."
Time for Diaz and Huerta to Join in
a hearty laugh.
W"e have the dustless sweeper, the
tireless cooker and now the Iceless re
frigerator is announced. If this thing
keeps up we may soon have a houre
keeperless house.
If the proposed Harrisburg Tennis
Club does as much for tennis as the
Park Golf Club has done for golf, the
organization will be well worth while.
Don't forget that the Wharton School
enrollment lists are still open to ambi
tious young men and women.
EVENING CHAT I
One of the things that people fa
miliar with Harrlsburg's remarkable
transportation facilities and its impor
tance as a shipping center do not un
derstand is why some effort is not
made to establish a cold storage ware
house or place where fruits and agri
cultural products may be stored. Here
is Harrisburg, pointed out a man who
deals in fruits on a large scrfle. within
a short distance of the greatost apple
district in this part of the country and
close to the famous York county
strawberry farms and the South
Mountain peach belt, and yet while
hundreds of cars of fruits pass
through the city on their way to
cold storage warehouses in Philadel
phia. New York. Baltimore and even
Reading none stops here. Fruit rais
ing has been stimulated very much in
this district lately and commercial
orchnrds have been planted within
thirty miles of the city and there Is
no place to store the fruit when It is
gathered. The owner must either sell
It to commission merchants and ship
It away or depend upon the local mar
kets. Some years ago a study of the
problem was made and attention vas
called to the fact that a cold storage
warehouse here would enable farmers
and fruit growers to store products
and would Increase the business of
the city and at the same time be a
source of greater interest to buyers
and shippers as well as furnishing a
convenience. Now with the greatest
peach crop known in years and all
kinds of fruits and vegetables In
abundance there is no place where
the 'stuff can be stored here. It all
goes away.
Firemen here are wondering If they
can get back to the city for the State
convention some of the old Are en
gines that helped put out blazes In
this city years ago. The old Citizen
engine was sold to Ohio and there are
hand engines at Newville and Cham
bersburg which it is thought came
from this city, but their history is not
accurate. The Good Will engine was
sold In an eastern county. In all
probability the oldest hand engine
here will be that now in Northumber
land. It dates back over 15<? years.
There has been a revival of gossip
about hook nnd ladder companies as
a result of the gathering of the con
vention. The Mount Vernon, which is
No. 5 on the city list, is officially hook
and ladder company No. 1. It was
the first hook and ladder to be organ
ized, but the Hope had a truck before
the Mount Vernon came Into being,
say old firemen. The old Hope truck
had a history. Years ago. according
to tradition, the Hope members under
took to sell their old truck, whtch was
painted white. Permission was re
fused and one night the truck dis
appeared and Is said to have been sold
at a place down the Cumberland Val
ley. It was a forerunner of the con
troversy over ownership of fire appa
ratus which got into court when
Vance C. McCormick was mayor and
he tried to discipline the Paxton
company.
fffloers and men of the National
Guard are commencing to take a big
Interest In rifle practice work because
of the changes made in regulations
and the steps being taken to encour
age the work at the targets and the
chances are that there will be some
busy days at the range on First Moun
tain. The local cavalrymen and in
fantrymen have been working all
summer, but In October Is when they
put in their best lick®.
State Commissioner of Fisheries N.
R. Buller is being congratulated by
friends upon the action of the au
thorities of the directors of the Con
neaut Lake Association, which held
a big fair In Crawford county and
which attracted exhibits from far and
near. The commissioner has received
a formal resolution of thanks from
the directors for the "splendid fish ex
hibit at our fair, which was. without
doubt, the most complete exhibition
of fish shown here." The resolution
also commends the educational value
of the exhibit and the care shown by
Superintendent Phil Hartman.
In a. short time the authorities of
Paxtang will take some steps to im
prove the State highway which runs
through the baby borough from end
to end. Unfortunately for the bor
ough. the new municipality was
erected before the State's repairmen
could get to work and nothing could
be done, the State not handling re.
pairs on highways where they go
through boroughs. Consequently, it is
up to the new borough fathers to fix
up things for the traveling public, it
bids fair to be an expensive Job, but
It will be done to show that Paxtang
is on the job and to gently call the at
tention of Camp Hill, Penbrook and
other nearby towns to the necessity of
fixing up State highways.

ATTACKING ROOSEVELT
[From the New York Sun.l
The Democratic Congressional cam
paign committee la making a great
show of energy and has compiled the
usual farrago called a campaign text
book. What genius conceived the idea
of attacking Mr. Roosevelt and his ad
ministration? If the Progressive party
Is declining, why should the Democrats
think It a stroke of wisdom to abuse
the Progressive idol and to drive the
Progressives into voting for Republican
candidates?
j EDITORIAL COMMENT!
The Republicans would give too much
to a few-men, while the Democrats
would not give enough to any man.—
From Colonel Roosevelt's Kansas City
speech.
Judging from the way thev crowd
around the "pork barrel" in Washing

more than enough to their friends
that 1s to say, more than enough of the
public money.—New York Sun.

Palmer Makes Savage Attack on
Pinchot in Speech Delivered
in Carbon County
M'CORMICK CONTINUES MUM
Munson Unites With Brumbaugh;
Local Fusion Close to
the Rocky Shores
Instead of there being fusion be
tween the Democratic and Washing
ton parties In Pennsylvania this fall
It looks as though an open row was
about to break out between the lead
ers and that Vance C. McCormlck's
assumption of the burden of financing
the Bull Moosers as well as his own
party will be the sorriest spectacle
ever seen in a State campaign. Not
only have people commenced to smile
sneerfully, as might be said, over the
attempt to beat Penrose by fusing on
a nomination for an office for whtch
Penrose Is not a candidate, but McCor
mick is. but there is a roar from Bull
Moosers to know what they are going
to get in return for putting McCor
mick on their ticket. And now Pinchot
and Palmer are commencing to say
things about each other.
Tuesday Pinchot commanded Pal
mer to withdraw as an answer to the
Monroe man's assertion that he would
not quit. Yesterday Palmer came back
this way: "Mr. Pinchot says, accord
ing to this morning's papers, that I
ought to withdraw. He says that many
Democrats and some Democratic
county chairmen have told , him I
should withdraw from the race. I do
not belong to the withdraw family.
Mr. Pinchot represents a party that
was organized as a protest against
Penrose and Penroseism in the Re
publican party, but I represent a party
that not only has been opposed to
Penrose .but which also has more ad
vocates now in the nation than those
of any other party. I would be untrue
to that party if I did not continue to
carry Its banner, and I believe I will
carry it on to victory. Not a single
Democrat has suggested to me that I
ought to withdraw from the ticket,
and I challenge Mr. Pinchot to pro
duce the name of a single Democratic
county chairman who has asked him
or me to take my name oft the ticket.
If anyone thinks that Mr. Pinchot rep
resents better government than I, let
him vote for' Mr. Pinchot."
The effort of the Democratic city
machine to bull through a fusion
dicker on legislative candidates has
not yet borne fruit,
but it was stated this
morning that Herr Fusion Not
Moesleln had hopes Working in
that when Boss Mc- the City
Cormick came home .
next time he would '
be' able to report to him that it had
been worked. Wilmer Crow, one of
the Washington candidates, has been
asked by many of his friends in his
party to stand fast and it was re
ported- this morning that John A.
Marshall considers his brief from the
people at the primaries just as good
as that given to Jesse Joyful Lybarger.
In political circles it is believed that
the whole fusion game in the city is
nothing more than a scheme of the
Patriot to help Lybarger. It threw
him into the Forgettery one evening
and has been trying to square things
ever since. The only trouble Is that
every time a race is run Jesse is put
up against faster horles.
The Philadelphia Press to-day says:
"Ex-Secretary of State Philander C.
Knox completely denied the published
story that he was a
candidate for the place
Knox Says of United States Sen-
He is Not a ator George T. Oliver
Candidate at the next senatorial
election in 1916 when
a Press reporter inter
viewed him yesterday afternoon on
the shaded veranda of the golf house
of the Merlon Cricket Club. Mr. Knox
had just returned from a round of
the course. As he leisurely smoked a
cigar and rested he commented upon
manufacturing development in this
country with a view to extending our
foreign trade, the growth of manu
facturing in Japan, and like the diplo
mat that he is. barely touched upon
«uch subjects as the European war
and political developments in this
country."
Larue Munson, of Williamsport,
who could have had the Democratic
nomination for Governor in 1910, yes
terday met the Re
publican candidate
and pledged his sup- Munson Says
port to Dr. Brum- He Favors Dr.
baugh. Mr. Munson Brumbaugh
said that the people
were tired of politics
and wanted a business administration,
which he was confident Dr. Brum
baugh would give to Pennsylvania.
He declared that the Republican
ticket would carry Lycoming county
by a substantial majority in Novem
ber. Mr. Munson stated that many
Democrats were dissatisfied with their
party and would turn in for Dr. Brum
baugh and the entire Republican
ticket. A similar view was expressed
by Clarence E. Sprout, a prominent
attorney of Williamsport.

The So-Called Era of the Ren
aissance of History
Larned Includes It In His Fourth
Epoch
Larned'B division of all History into
six great epochs is logical as well as
interesting. His fourth epoch is one of
the greatest of all historical eras. In
that period, for instance, appear Gut
enberg, the inventor of printing; Co
lumbus. who discovered the new world;
Copernicus, who first demonstrated that
our earth was a sfttelite of the sun;
Kepler, who learned the secrete of the
planets, and formulated the laws of
their movements: Galileo, who anticipat
ed the methods of modern science; Cer
vantes. who wrote one of the world's
masterpieces; Raphael and Michael An
gelo, who raised painting to a height
not known before; Loyola, who founded
the great order of the Jesuits; Luther,
who wrought a change in the religious
faith of Europe; pnd Shakespeare, per
haps the mightiest human Intellect the
world has ever seen. These are among
