Job Dept. 20& FRIDAY EVENING, OCTOnru 9 THE FTREMEN'K PARADE THE State firemen and those who engineered yesterday's gigantic parade are to be congratulated not only upon its size, but upon Its success from every standpoint. Not only was It the biggest thing of its kind this city has ever had, but It was one of the most pleasing. Tho paraders formed a picturesque and dignified assemblage. Some of the companies marched with all the mili tary precision of carefully trained sol diers and there was a gratifying ab sence of roistering and objectionable hilarity. Considering the length of the pro cession it was handled with surpris ing precision and promptness. All told it was a display of which the I city and the visiting firemen may both be proud. One of the best known clergymen of Pennsylvania writes the Telegraph that the "Anti-Saloon League of Pennsylva nia has seriously injured its influence with many staunch temperance people" by the course of its leaders in dragging the organization into the support of the Democratic candidate for Governor. He believes the result will be wide spread reaction against the candidate the bosses of the league conspired to elect. A POLITICAL EGOTIST THOSE thousands of good men and women of this city who participated in the main Im provement campaign of 1901 and In the several public Improvements since that time will be surprised to learn that they had nothing whatever to do with these improvements. All the credit for the great advanco of H&rrisburg since 1901 is claimed by a single Individual —Vance C. McCor mlck. In the literature which he is sending out he modestly claims in his usual shrinking way to have done the whole thing; all the rest of the peo ple were simply part of his decorative scheme. In a campaign handbook issued by the Democratic State machine, the candidate for Governor, chosen by himself and two others and hand ■tamped by President Wilson, refer ence is made to McCormick's election as Mayor of this city In 1902, in which he Is alleged to have "converted a nor mal Republican majority of 600 into the amazing majority of 2,200." Not a word is said about the outrageous boodling of the voters in that cam paign, but the handbook says McCor mick "discarded practically all the ac cepted methods of campaigning." The people of Harrisburg have not forgotten that campaign nor have they overlooked the colossal expendi tures of thp recent primary in which McCormick barely defeated a Demo cratic rival for the gubernatorial nomination. He will have a fine time convincing some thousands of voters of Pennsylvania that he Is the virtu ois and righteous individual he so brazenly paints himself in his own newspaper and the literature with which he Is flooding the State. This shrinking and self-effacing candidate doesn't take the people in to his confidence and tell them that he was a mere incident in the im provement campaign of this city nor that he instructed those who befriend ed him in the newspapers to refrain from mentioning him as in. favor of the great improvement program of 1901 for fear he might lose the votes of thousands who were opposed to the Improvement plans. Now he takes all the credit and pats himself on the back at every opportunity. He doesn't tell the people how he rewarded those who had a prominent part in the corruption. of the voters by appointment to places in his ad ministration, nor how he endeavored to convict his predecessor in office of malfeasance so that any statement by this same predecessor regarding ths enormous and corrupt use of money for his election might be dis credited In advance. It is manifestly the purpose of the Democratic candidate for Governor to throw dust in the eyes of the people wherever It' is possible to do so, trust ing that they will not learn the truth FRIDAY EVENING, until after election day. Unfortunately] for him, perhaps, the preachers and the forces of righteousness within the Commonwealth are alicady resenting the prostitution of temperance and religion to base partisan uses. But of all his amazing performances nothing has so disgusted the people of llarrisburg as his vainglorious claim of credit for the parks, the play grounds, the filter plant, the paved streets, the improved sewerage facili ties and all the other good things , which Harrisburg now er.Joys, which were obtained not by this egotist, but by the people themselves co-operating in every part of the community. He has gone one step too far in this per sonal campaign eulogy of himself and the voters of this city will place their seal of disapproval upon the candidate and the kind of a canvass which he has been making since the microbe of ambition and the greed for power took possession of htm. Probably no Incident of the big dem onstration yesterday caused more of a sensation than the destruction of the banners carried by boys in the employ of the Democratic machine. Some outraged firemen and their friends in Second street ran umbrellas through the ban ners and 'drove the boys from the street. It was of a piece with the tac tics of tho Democratic gang under its present leadership. OUR PAVED STREETS IN no other city of anything like Its size in the State could the firemen have paraded over nearly ten miles of paved streets, past almost every fire house in the department, as-they did in Harrisburg yesterday. The fast was commended upon by thousands of the visitors. It was a tribute to the systematic and comprehensive scheme of public improvements the city has been following for years. Another feature of the parade was the. fact that everywhere the asphalt was as clean as brooms and water could make It. The marchers did not require so much as a brushing at the end of the long walk, for there was no dust. Superintendent William H. Lynch was on his Job as usual and had the highways of the city looking as though they had just come from the laundry. The audacity of Palmer and McCor mick talking about primary campaign expenses. We should like to have a thorough investigation of the way in which that portion of McCormlck's $33,000 nomination purchase money al lotted to Harrisburg was spent. The man with the million has been so long accustomed to buy what he wants that he has come to believe that any way he chooses to spend his money Is all right. But living In a glass house, why throw stones? IjEWIS AND MeCORMICK WILLIAM DRAPER LEWI S, who sold out the Washington party and seems to glory in his performance, thus speaks of Dr. Brumbaugh, the splendid Re publican candidate: The man nominated by Penrose and backed by the liquor interests, the exploiters of child labor, and the slums and tenderloins of every large and small city in the State cannot give this State what it needs. This is on a par with the cant and sniveling hypocrisy of the Democratic candidate whose personal newspaper organ In this city refers to him as Vance C. McCormick, Washing ton and Democratic candidate for Governor and supported by the de cent elements of all parties. Strange how all the decency In a great Commonwealth has been mono polized by the hand-picked aristocrat and millionaire, whose shameless ex penditures In his ambition and greed for power have become a nation-wide scandal. Over -250,000 citizens of Pennsyl vania voted for Dr. Brumbaugh in the primary election, and these and thou sands upon thousands more will re sent the outrageous Insult of Lewis in November. The magnanimous and patriotic action of the Washington party has without question of doubt made certain my election as the next Governor of Pennsylvania. I realize the great responsibility and trust Imposed upon me and my hope and prayer Is that I may be worthy of It. The foregoing from a speech of Vance C. McCormick, In Philadelphia, Indicates the confidence and modesty of the Shrinking One. That Flinn gold brick was nicely polished. THE CHAMBER'S WORK JUST what the Harrisburg Cham ber of Commerce has done dur ing the first nine months of its existence is concisely stated in the annual report of Its retiring president. George B. Tripp. And the recital of those results show more than any other statement could that the Cham ber is indeed made up of "live wire" men, alive to present day needs of the city and anxious to take the initiative in things pertaining to its develop ment and business interests. Perhaps the greatest achievement of the year was the procuring of the passage of the "Hardscrabble" ordi nance which means the wiping out of the last encumbered section of the city's river front. But little less Im portant was the organization of a traffic committee to look after the city's shipping interests on the Penn sylvania and Reading railroad lines. It is as a distributing center that Har risburg stands out on the map of the State and country and any move to make Its distributing facilities better Is for the good of the entire commun ity. The blasting of the river rocks, the Fourth of July oelebratlon, the aid given the Wharton school, the elimi nation of the nuisance of soliciting— all show that the Chamber of Com merce is made up of the stuff that counts for a bigger, hetter Harris burg. Secretary McAdoo might help out the man who is holding the dough bag for the Pemocratlc machine In Pennsylva nia and "is not stuck on the job." He gave Tennessee a lift by depositing $400,000 in gold In a New York bank so that his native State could raise the wind for October Interest, and the Wil son hand-picked candidates need as sistance,' 1 EVENING CHAT 1 Harrisburg certainly does like to cut up and last night it Joined its thousands pf visitors in having a good time regardless of police prohibitions of various actions which are com monly classed as annoyances but which in carnival spirit are over looked. The city had been having a pretty good time in the evenings this week because of the presence of the firemen, but last evening it started out to have fun and not since Old Home • Week have the streets in the business section of the city been so thronged or the fun so free. The fun began about the time the weary marchers finished the parade and the youngsters had bought up all of the nuisances offered by the fakirs. Then confetti began to be thrown and pounds of it were scat tered over everyone. Young and old appeared to be having a good time and Harrisburg and Steelton folks and people from nearby towns were hav ing Just as much fun as the visitors. Toward the late hours men belonging to bands began to give Impromptu concerts and some of them loaned their instruments to worse perform ers and the latest popular airs were mangled in a laughable way. It all goes to show that Harrisburg likes to cut loose and that the idea of having some event every year at which the spirits of the young and old can be free and a good time had is rather strong here. The firemen's convention coming after a lapse of so many years offered a good occasion. I No one in Harrisburg seems to be able to find anything to compare with the firemen's parade which was held here yesterday and the Old Home Week processions which were as much record breakers in their way as the parades of the centennial in 1885 wore in their line have been surpassed. The length and variety of the parade and above all the number of bands and drum corps made people sit up and take notice. In fact, it rather aston ished the men who had planned the demonstration. No one here ever heard of a parade line eight miles long and it was called too extended, but when the last company had reached Locust street on Its march down Second the head of the line was at State and Second on its way to the river and firemen were strung all the way out on tjie Hill, back again and up into Camp Curtin. So the critics of the parade route, were silenced. Next to the length of line the splendid order maintained attracted tho atten tion of everyone and expressions of admiration for the deportment of the firemen were general. The parade simply broke records in every direc tion. Another thing that won comment in the line was the fact that so many of the smaller towns displayed motor'fire apparatus and when tt comes down to dots Harrisburg did not oomrfare so favorably in that line. The city is well provided with fire apparatus "and has spent lots of money in that direc tion. but we like to be up to date, and when Lebanon, Carlisle, Huntingdon and other towns show up with motor apparatus as good as that we have just bought and York shows three or four times as many pieces as we have and Ardmore displays the same as we have, it furnishes food for contem plation. Horse-drawn apparatus can put out fires as well as motor, no doubt, but the motor apparatus gets there quicker and we like to be a little ahead of our neighbors. Some of the railroads entering Har risburg might provide passenger ears for rush days that are more comfort able than those in which folks went to the centennial in 1876. Yesterday the railroads entering the city were taxed to haul the excursionists and they probably did not realize what they were up against. If they did, some of the cars that brought poopie here could have been improved upon. There were some comments that could hardly be classed as gentle made about the cars used to bring people here. Some of the letters being delivered at the post offices of Harrisburg and Steelton indicate more plainly than by stamps or post marks that they come from abroad. They show evi dences of having been opened. The other day a man from somewhere be yond Breslau received a letter at the Harrisburg office that was a sight. This man, like a good many other foreigners, had his own post office box, and when he got out the letter he wanted to fight. It had been opened and was written over and stamped over and then tied with a piece of thread. He showed It to a companion and they jawed over it. Finally another foreigner who wore a velvet hat came along and the trouble was told to him. He looked at the letter, fished one with simiiar injuries from his pocket and the three proceeded to consign 'censors to the first Tophet elevator, going down. Apparently, the censors in some of the countries fear that the United States may be a clearing house for information and want to be sure that none leaks out in the form of mis sives to ,Tan or Ivan or some other man asking when work will boom in America and he can send some morn money because the baby has begun to walk or his father is too old to work any longer. • 1 WELL KNOWN PEOPLE "] —Frank W.

The Senator left this morning for Blairsville and before leaving said that he intended to get back to Wash ington for Monday and would fight the tax as unnecessary and that he found the people all over the State against it. Between the war tax and the tariff, he said, there is nothing but trouble ahead for the Democrats. To-night Senator Penrose will be in Indiana and Westmoreland coun ties and to-morrow will bo in Arm strong speaking to-morrow night in Kittaning. He will be in a section of the State which ha*, been hard hit by the Democratic tariff tinkering. Dr. Martin G. Brumbaugh also spent the night here, arriving late from Lititz, where he spoke to a big audience. He left early this morning for Blairsville where he is to speak this afternoon. The Philadelphia Public Ledger says all Philadelphia is laughing over a break' Wednesday night in Scottish Rite Hall, when Vance McCormick, Demo- McCormick cratlc and Washing- Tramps on ton party guberna "Vic's" Toes torial nominee, ad dressed a gathering of • Washington party workers. Among those seated on the stage WHS "Vic" Hamilton, Washing ton party leader, who helped swing the McCormick endorsement by the Bull Moosers. Near him were Dr. William Draper Lewis and Mr. Mc- Cormick. When Mr. McCormick arose to speak he denounced, for one thing, the liquor traffic. Mr. Hamilton con ducts a saloon. Another Washington party leader thereupon asked, "Is he treading on your toes?" Michael J. Ryan, late candidate for Governor, and all of his supporters on the Philadelphia Democratic State committe.e ignored invi tations to a dinner given last night at P'.iiladel- Ryanttes phia, at which A. Mit- Pass Up chell Palmer and Vance TalkfpHt C. McCormick, Demo cratic nominees for Sen ator and Governor, respectively, were the most conspicuous figures. It was a State-wide gathering 6t Democrat! under the auspices of a Committee of One Hundred, of which Colonel Thomas J. Keenan, of Pitts burgh, -is chairman. It is reported that the primary purpose was to raise funds for the campaign. There were some present from the interior of the State who backed Mr. Ryan at the primaries, but they rep- resented a very small minority. Messrs. Palmer and McCormlck, State Chairman Morris, H. C. Niles and Russell Duane were among others who made speeches. A letter was read from Director of Wharves, Docks and Ferries George W. Norris, of the Blan kenburg administration, in which he contended that many who have en rolled as Republicans in this city will not vote the Republican ticket this Fall. "The Republican ticket," he wrote, "will be lucky to get any sub stantial majority in Philadelphia." The Democratic gangsters who hired a lot of boys to carry banners through the crowds last night and kept them up until hours when they Lybarjrei' Is as should have been Inconsistent sound asleep, were as His Boss condemned right and left among the tire- men and visitors to the big convention, and there was no end of criticism of the violation of the nonpartisan spirit, in behalf of Jesse J. Lybarger, the gang candidate for the House in the city district. The Patriot said this morning that firemen are not going to allow themselves to be made political tools and has been cackling about the nonpartisanship of the association. In view of this posi tion the use of an advertising automo bile for Lybarger, which gave the jonly political note to the parade, fur ! nishes an example of Vance McCor- Imick machine inconsistency only j counted by the publication of a child 11 "r cartoon this morning within a few hours after boys were kept up !until all hours of the night carrying around political banners on a non partisan occasion.

When a woman who had Doctor Brumbaugh since boyhood asked the men what they would do at the polls. "If we don't elect 'M. G." we might as well quit pray ing," one of the leaders replied. BRUMBAUGH FOR PRESIDENT .(From the Philadelphia Inquirer.] Dr. Brumbaugh is a man who is a natural leader of men. There Is no guesswork about his makeup. His career has been notable. He has de voted his life to the public. Pennsyl vania has been made the great battle ground by the choice of President Wil son. He has chosen Palmer as the can didate for Senator and McCormick for Governor. The attention of the whole United States Is centered upon Penn sylvania. Dr. Brumbaugh has become a national figure. Dr. Brumbaugh, In spite of all that the combination between the forces of free trade and of William Flinn can do to the contrary, is about to be elect ed Governor of Pennsylvania. It Is not merely a local, but a national cam paign In which he is engaged and In which he will be successful If the tre mendous Republican registration means anything at all. The Presidential cam paign is two years distant, It is true, but is there any Republican wno Is looming up any more conspicuously for the Presidential nomination to-day than Martin G. Brumbaugh? Dare to be true, nothing can need a lie; A fault which needs it most, grows two thereby. —Herbert. DEMOCRATIC FOLLY [Philadelphia Ledger] In the first place, the removal of the duty on wool deprived the government of $20,000,000 revenue, without bene fiting the consumed in any way. Woolen clothes are selling at the same price that they brought before the tariff was removed. Clothing Is no cheaper and dress goods cost as much. The revenue loss must be supplied by extraordinary war taxes. In the second place, the long con tinued agitation for free wool has been accompanied by a progressive decline in the number of sheep pastured. In 1912 there were 38,481,000 sheep in the oonntry. In 1913 there were only 34,- 319,000 and according to the estimates of the Department of Agriculture, the : number has again fallen this year 1 There has been a loss of nearly 4,000,-' 000 sheep since it became certain that the Democrats would remove the pro-1 tective duty on wool. This has re duced the wool clip by 65,000,000 pounds, and ft has decreased the sup ply of mean by 150,000,000 or 200,. 000,000 pounds. Meat cost more be cause of It. American workmen have been deprived of employment because of the Increased import of woolen goods, and the country finds Itself less able to supply Its own needs In thia European crisis when Great Britain discovers that it must use all the avail able wool for its armies in the field. But what rights have the wooi growers in comparison with the sab red privileges of the cotton growers? And when did a President ever buy a bale of wool to keep up the price and prevent the producers from losing hall the value of their crop? The em bargo which Congress has put on American wool production is of much greater significance than the action ol the British Government. OUR DAILY LAUGH QUESTIONS fFREE.
