SEPT. 29 DRIVING CONVENTIONS AWAY ALL loyal Harrisburgcrs must have been seriously Impressed with the statement of those who have just returned from the sessions of the State Medical So riety that next year's convention would have come to Harrisburg by a unanimous vote and that this city had lieen agreed upon for the meeting until It was discovered that our hotel facilities are inadequate. How long must the city suffer from a condition that could be easily remedied? We are making Harrlsburg attractive in many ways and then driving conven tions, strangers and tourists away through lack of proper hotel accom modations. Nine more counties of Kentucky have (Tone "dry." Evidently the people down there have concluded to take their mint In chewing gum instead of Juleps. LEANING ON WILSON T is manifestly the purpose of the I Democratic bosses to manufacture sentiment for the hand-picked can didates for United States Senator and Governor in this State through praise of President Wilson, their Sponsor. But as the analysis of the Wilson administration and its policies pro ceeds the Influence of that adminis tration is not likely to be of any great assistance to the candidates in ques tion. Forcing a great tax bill of $105.000,000 upon the people of the Country so that extravagant appro priations can be continued is not going to help either the President or his ciaquers. When such men as Representative IFitzgdrald, of New York, chairman of the House committee on appropri ations. denounce their fellow-Demo crats for their profligacy and their rapacity it is time for Republicans and independent voters to get over their temporary hypnotism. Fitzgerald declared in a recent speech castigating his Democratic colleagues that "they have unnecessarily piled up the public expenditures until the Democratic party is becoming the laughing stock of the country." It is stated that the only reduction effected by any executive department at Washington was $l2O reported to have been saved by the Secretary of State. This statement is made by Colonel Harvey in an analysis of the Wilson administration to date. And he further declares that if President Wilson has ever tried to check the extravagance of Congress it has not heen shown and that "the appropri ations recommended with his acqui escence far exceed those ever before submitted." It is agreed upon all sides that the practice of reasonable economy would jnake unnecessary the increase of taxation now proposed, but the waste fulness of the Democratic majority goes on against the protest of the chairman of the House appropriations committee, himself a Democrat. It is pointed out that the per capita appropriations have already increased from $5 in the Fifty-eighth Congress to $7 in the present Congress. But the wave of protest from all parts of the country has caused some of the more intelligent Democrats in Congress to hesitate. President Wil son's insistence upon a government controlled steamship line is being re sented and the debate on the war revenue bill has increased Democratic opposition to the shipping bill. Re publican charges that the Democrats were preparing to spend $30,000,000 or more on a hazardous scheme of government ownership, while levying simultaneously a tax of $105,000,000, have had their effect, and there are many recruits to the insurgent cause. Meanwhile A. Mitchell Palmer and the other White House twin, the Democratic candidate for Governor, are going up and down Pennsylvania begging the support of the people on the basis of their loyalty to President Wilgon. This very fact Is alienating hundreds of voters who might other wise h»ve given the Democratic ticket their support. Colonel Roosevelt's at- TUESDAY EVENING, BXBRISBURG TEIJXJRAPS SEPTEMBER 29, 1914. tacks upon the Wilsou administration uro still further decimating what la, left of the Washington party tied to the McCormick chariot wheels. Sin cere Washington party voters can see no reason why they should support a candidate who represents in his own candidacy the principles of an ad ministration criticised by their own national leader. It is inconceivable that any consid erable number of intelligent men will combine to aid in the building up of a Democratic machine which would bo used to further the Wilson cause two years hence. Rather strange that the Democrats in Congress are side-stepping the resolu tion to probe Senator Penrose a cam paign expenditures after all the decla rations of A. Mitchell Palmer that the light would be turned on. These Demo crats have now discovered that it might be inexpedient to hector Senator Penrose and ignore the charges against Roger Sullivan, the Wilson choice for United States Senator in Illinois. OWNING YOUR HOME , , |-T is cheaper for the city man to I rent than to own his own 1 home," said J. D. Bressler be fore a real estate convention in Brooklyn recently. I This is on a par with the Joke about it being "cheaper to move than pay rent." Every man who is paying for a home saves more than he other wise would and that many people do not hold the same view as Mr. Bressler it may be pointed out that one of the objects for which thousands in this country are saving Is the own ership of their homes. This is a pur pose which bankers and buildtng as sociations are always glad to encour age because the home-owner is an especially desirable citizen and he usually calls upon the bank or build ing association to aid him In attain ing his purpose. In the owned home the ideal family life Is found. Children are brought up in the most wholesome surround ings. The man who owns his home has increased his assets of self-respect and independence. He has high ideals and a deep sense of the responsibilities of life. He is generally optimistic and bears the troubles that come during a lifetime more easily than the man who is living for the moment. He studies civic problems; he wants to know "who's who" in municipal af fairs. as he pays taxes directly out of his pocket, and thus the matter is brought closer to him than in the in direct way of paying rent. He takes comfort in the fact—and his wife sleeps better for it—that if he is taken away his wife and chil dren will have a roof over their heads. The family is kept intact through the ownership of the home. The widow keeps the children' in school and gives them a better start in life. Many cases of this kind are known. So, if you are reasonably sure of being located permanently in one place of business, it will pay you to save money and buy your home, re gardless of what you may be told to the contrary. How McCormlck does hate a saloon man—when he is not getting a cam paign contribution from him. THK ANTI-SADOON LEAGUE THE Pennsylvania edition of the American Issue, the organ of the Anti-Saloon League, con tinues its remarkable attitude of insincerity and inconsistency toward Dr. Martin G. Brumbaugh, the Re publican candidate; for Governor. In its issuo of September appears the following paragraph: We realize that there are still a few sincere temperance folks in the State who wonder why the con ference of anti-liquor workers at liarrisburg on September 17 should have, by practically unanimous vote, declared in favor for Mr. Mc- Cormlck. This organ of the Anti-Saloon League movement is manifestly out of touch with the great body of temper ance workers and it will doubtless discover that what it terms a "few sincere temperance folks" are really an army of fair-minded people who will jolt the political bosses who have taken over the management of the league. In the satne article it is stated that on the day following the so-called conference in this city, which was dominated by the McCormick Demo crats and the bosses of the Washing ton party, "the executive committee of the Anti-Saloon League of Pennsylva nia gave its most emphatic endorse ment to the action taken by the con ference. Of course, the executive committee of the Anti-Saloon League gave its "emphatic endorsement" to the action of the conference of the day before. Inasmuch as the same men who con trol the management of the league were also head and front of the move ment to drag the temperance people Into the support of the Democratic candidate for Governor, no other re sult could have been expected. We do not believe that any consid erable number of the sincere tem perance people of the State are going to be corraled for a partisan candi date who is doing his best to capi talize the sentiment of the decent people of Pennsylvania for himself while berating and assailing all other good men. We shall not be surprised to see a revulsion among the tem perance people of Pennsylvania against the men who are attempting to use them for political ends. The local option cause will not be helped by such tactics as those of the bosses of the Anti-Saloon League. That four-leaf clover the Kaiser car ries la bearing an awful load of respon sibility Just now. Steelton Is enjoying another period of Democratic prosperity. Knowing Villa, and with Madero in mind, if we were Carranza we would send our resignation by special delivery letter and telegraph that it is on the road. AN EVENING THOUGHT Love never faileth.—l Cor. 12:8. I EVENING CHAT l) Offer of a Market street moving Picture theater of a prise for the most appropriate name is a refreshing change from the ordinary method of bestowing a name on a theater, gome time ago in this column comment was made upon the surprisingly few names appropriate to Harrishurg, the State capital of Pennsylvania, the county seat of Dauphin and the center of the lower Susquehanna valley, were borne by its numerous hotels. There are about a dozen which are distinctive, localized or which mean something. The tendency In larger cities and in many of the growing towns of the State is to give names to hotels and theaters that mean something. But not here. We have named hotels aft er hostelries in many a land and our theaters likewise. Hotels and theaters called Majestic, Colonial, Metropoli tan, Star, Plaza and the like arc to be found in a thousand places in the United States. Senate, Commonwealth, Dauphin, Harris, Bolton mean some thing here and the use of a proprie tor's name lends personality to an en terprise, but it does seem a little hack neyed to put up a $20,000 theater on the latest ideas of safety, convenience and comfort and then call it National. For all the originality some of our names for more or less public places we might as well call them the Green Pine or the Ripened Corn. Purchases of mileage books at the Union Station and at the Reading ticket office here Indicate that there are a good many thrifty persons in this city and vicinity who do not pro pose to contribute any more to the railroads than necessary. On October 1 the rate for the "thousand mile books" will go up $2.50 and the way they are being bought indicates that some people are stocking up for months ahead. The books are good for a year and two cents a mile looks good to many. Some of the depart ments at the Capitol have taken Fath er Time by the front hair and bought books for those who must travel in official business, among them men connected with the Public Service Commission which has charge of the railroad end of affairs. Business houses and manufacturing companies are also getting stocked up with transporta tion. Did the stork five or six years ago backslide a trifle on his Job? School Board authorities are loath to go on record with such an accusation, but they do contend that there must be some answer to the unusual difference in the number of six-year-olds who enrolled at the opening of school this month as compared to that of other years. The returns of the various primary grade teachers have just been compiled and they show that only 915 small men and ladies were enrolled at the beginning of the present term. And in 1913, for instance, there were 942 —twenty-seven more! Some automobile thieves are going to be bored full of holes If the con versation of a couple of owners goes for anything. One man was sitting in his car In Market street yesterday when another car owner came out of a store with a small box. Man No. 1 asked if he was buying a gun. "I am. and It's a big caliber," was the reply. "I bought one Saturday and two other fellows I know have been prac ticing at marks on their garage doors," said No. 1. One of the things noticeable among the crowds which gather around bul letin boards and eagerly discuss the war news is that nine-tenths of the arguments, outside of the fact that this or that side is going to win, are over pronunciation. Apparently every one seems to know where the points of interest are to be found and their relative position to Paris, Brussels, Berlin or other big cities, but no one seems to accept the other fellow's style of pronunciation. Leaving out such impossible places as Przemysl and the like there appears to be no end of room for argument about the way names of French rivers, German cities, Belgian provinces are pronounc ed and the man who has been abroad has a big advantage. However, no one can convince another just how to pro nounce some of the names in Austria and the Balkans. That Is where the gazetteer comes in. Not long ago a native of Belgrade was appealed to for the correct man ner of pronouncing some of the names figuring in the Austro-Servian end of the row. He started off by calling down his questioner for putting a v in Servia, insisting that it must be called Serbia and then proceeding with such weerd naming of towns, provinces and rivers that one of the men said that he intended to Americanize the names and let It go at that. Which, it might be added, miffed the man from the country of the Karageorge vitch. who has trouble saying Sus quehanna and who could not say Con odoguinet to save his life. 1 WELL KNOWN PEOPLE I —Dr. H.

BRUMBAUGH DEXOUKCES THE BIG DEMOCRATIC TAX In a recent speech Dr. Brumbaugh, the Republican candidate for Governor, said: "We are fortunate. Indeed, that we can gather here in the peace of our valley under the shadow of the moun tains, with no disturbing influences at work In our Industrial or national life. Across the seas there is raging a war that is drenching the fields with blood, where last year grew the crops of an in dustrious husbandly. We are now face to face with the unique spectacle of a financially incompetent national admin istration resorting to a war tax of a hundred million dollars. We are not at war with any people in the world. Let us hope that we never shall be. Why, then, shall our people be asked to pay a war tax? Would it not be infinitely better for the welfare of all our people to re-establish a protective policy adequate to the needs of our Government and mindful of the inter ests of our working people, so that we shall have resources of our own with which to maintain our Government and conduct all its different affairs and not resort to the subterfuge of imposing a burden of a hundred million in taxes upon a peaceful people, in the name of a war tax, "Surely our industrial life has been shocked sufficiently with the present tarllT law: must It he further harassed with a tax upon our people at a time when they can least altord to be taxed and under the name of a war tax when • *rm at nan,-a vultll all llu WttrlH f" CITIZENS BOOST 1 THE BIG EDUCATOR Prominent Men of the State Show Faith in Brumbaugh and Dis trust of McCormick Organization of the Brumbaugh citizens' committee was completed at Philadelphia last night with Dirnner Beeber, formerly of Williamsport and one of the leading lawyers of Phila delphia, as president and many promi nent men enrolled as members. The league will promote the candidacy of the doctor in every county and men of activity in business and profes sional affairs will serve as members throughout the State. The committee is one of the most notable ever organ ized for a State campaign and shows very plainly that the friends ol the educator consider that he is the man to fill the chair of Governor, and that they resent the campaign of abuse poured out on him by his wealthy Democratic opponent. Thtf manner in which encourage ment has been given to the league by | people all over the State Is a. cause of pain at the Democratic State head quarters, especially in view of the awful frost with which the strained effort of the Independent Republican League was greeted. D. F. Lafean, ex-Congressman for the York district and candidate for Con gressman-at-large on the Republican ticket, predicts an over- whelming victory for the party candidates In gen- Ijafean Is eral. Pleased at When seen by the Prospects Telegraph re pr esenta- tlve at the Stewartstown fair, the day following the resigna tion of Dean £,ewis of the Washington party, Mr. Lafean was In the happiest of moods and was accompanied by C. W. Beales, of Gettysburg, present can didate for Congress. "Dean Lewis' resignation," replied Mr. Lafean, when asked what effect it would have in the Republican vote, "means an Increase of at least 50,000 which we did not expect, in place of assisting the Democratic candidate for Governor, It will be the reverse. The resignation affords a chance for members of the Washington party to get back to their first love and they'll waste no time In doing it and it will lie a straight ticket, not only for Governor. You can say for me, and I've been over the State considerably, that the election this Fall will be a veritable landslide and it looks to me as if York county would be in the Re publican column, I am satisfied that Mr. Beales will at least carry the dis trict —I can see It In no other light at this time and It is getting better daily." Fresh cause for worry was fur nished to the Democratic State wind mill force last night by an endorse ment given to Dr. Brum baugh by Edwin S. Stuart, and a terrific Painful blast against the sincer- Days at ity of any fusion between Windmill Democrats and Bull Moosers by the Phila delphia Evening Bulletin, the big: in dependent evening newspaper. Both of the big- Independent newspapers of Philadelphia are now denouncing the fusion dickering. Another cause for pain came when Gustav Rumpf, presi dent of the Brown Knitting Company, sent a letter to Congressman A. Mit chell Palmer. Democratic candidate for Senator, directing his attention to a communication Just issued by the Richmond Soup Society, of 2652 Ann street, Philadelphia, and inquiring whether Mr. Palmer would be so kind as to give a few moments of his time during the present campaign to an ex planation of the conditions described in the circular, which conditions Mr. Rumpf ascribes to "Palmerism." State Chairman William E. Crow, coming in from Uniontown, Fayette county, arrived in Pittsburgh about the same time as Sena tor Penrose, yesterday, and the quarters of the Penrose two, in the Kort Pitt Visiting Hotel, were continually Allegheny crowded, although Sena tor Penrose spent little time in his rooms. Ex-Secretary of State P. C. Knox will take the stump for the State ticket. The former pre mier in President Taft's Cabinet has resumed the practice of law, and has voluntarily offered his services in be half of the Republican ticket. To day Senator Penrose and State Chair man Crow are meeting district leaders in the Republican ranks in Allegheny county and canvassing the local situa tion, later meeting county chairmen and others from surrounding counties. The Republican county committee of Carbon county has re-elected Rob ert. Bacon, a former Assemblyman, of Lansford, county chair man. and Harry Houser, of Summit Hill, secre- Carbon tary. The meeting in- Re-eleots dorsed every candidate Officers on the Republican ticket, as well as the platform adopted at Pittsburgh. It also strong ly indorsed Senator Penrose for his defense of Republicanism and for the great good he has accomplished for the State and nation since he has been at. Washington. E>r. Martin G. Brumbaugh was lauded as one of the cleanest and ablest men the Republi can party ever nominated for the office of Governor, and his election was predicted by all. I POLITICAL SIDELIGHTS —lt is quite a joke on the Demo cratic machine when a collector writes to a hotolman to please help along a candidate who is yelling local option. —Wonder if any Luzerne county brewers, liquor dealers or hotelmen are contributing to the Democratic State campaign funds. —The war is a very convenient thing upon which, to lay blame. It is blamed for the tax to cover up the deficiency of the Palmer tariff and it is used by the Patriot to excuse the shutdown at Steelton. —McCormick appears to be likely to be greeted by a few more shutdowns as he goes about the State. —ln an unguarded moment the other day McCormick let slip the fact that he "conceded" Dr. Brumbaugh to be honest. —Some one at the Democratic- head quarters ought to edit the Colonel's speeches. They're hitting Wilson every day. —Quite some contrast between the Brumbaugh and McCormick meetings up In Clearfield. Clearfield knows McCormick and his ways and stays at home when he comes around. —The organization of a Palmer- McCormick League at Steelton has been postponed. •—Enthusiasm is hard to find at the Pa-Mc League meetings In Enhaut now. —Fayette's fusion deal appears .to have made it a cinch for Crow. —The Colonel will be here October 27.

H has said that, if success ful, lie would recognize the fact that is was by the votes of Washington party men as well as those of Demo crats." In other words, if McCormick is elected he will "recognize the fact" that he was elected by the votes of Bill Flinn and Company.

What a pretty burden that would be on the backs of the taxpayers'.—Altoona Tribune. Some idea of the annual American tribute to Europe paid in the form of tourists' expenditures may be formed from the announcement that 95,000 person have been repatriated via Lon don alone since the beginning of the war. To these must be added several thousands who made their way home from Continental ports, also some thousands who still remain in Europe. Further, there were many on the sea who did not reach Europe, and still more who planned late summer or au tumn trips but never started. Alto gether it is not unlikely that the total of visitors for the season would have been at least 125,000. What their average expenditure would have been THE TRADE CIRCULAR that escapes the wastebasket is the exception. Soliciting letters largely go the same way. No one disregards a telegram.
