PUUE ACROSS ON
FATHER SUSQUEHANNA
Concreting of C. V. Piers Started
to Prevent Interference by
Early Spring Freshets
Work has been started by the Cum
berland Yalley Railroad on the con
creting of the piers of the bridge over
the Susquehanna at Mulberry street
preliminary to the erection of the new
viaduct.
The contractor is eager to take ad
vantage of the extreme low stage of
the water by completing as much of
the concrete sheathing of the pier
foundations as possiblo so that an
early resumption of the job In the
Spring will not be interfered with by
freshets.
The present piers, it is understood,
will serve for the new bridge, but the
masonry will be covered with concrete
and extended in such a way ns to pro
vide room for the arches. To do this
it will be necessary to place the con
crete clear to the rock foundations of.
the abuttments.
Two gangs of men are busy on the
work, one at the city shore line, the
other at the shore line of the eastern
side of Hargest's Island.

NEW WIRELESS TIME STATION
Dlcner. the Jeweler, Receives Govern
ment Ttmo Flashes From
Washington
P. G. Diener, the Market street jew
eler. always has been a strong be
liever in the value of being "on time."
Ever since he opened his store fifteen
years ago he has acted upon that prin
ciple and never has lost an opportun
ity to introduce the new and unique.
His latest is the installation of a wire
less Time Receiving Station which will
enable him to give you the absolutely
correct time as flashed from the United
States Government Station at Arling
ton. Va., near Washington, D. C.
The Government's Station was built
at tremendous cost and is the most
modern and most powerful radio or
wireless station in the world. No
doubt Mr. Diener's generosity will re
sult in making his store the time
sotting headquarters for Harrlsburg.
Surely he is to be commended for go
ing to the expense of installing the

CHURCH MEN ENDORSE
UMUMBH
[Continued From First Page]
ent religious beliefs and political par-
I ties, desire to make this brief state
ment:
"We sincerely deplore any action
that may divide the real friends of
temperance or cause any radical de
parture from the fundamental position
of the Anti-Saloon League, which was
designed to be 'unsectartan' and 'oranl
partisan' in its character.
"The attempt to array the temper
ance forces of this State against Dr.
Martin G. Brumbaugh, the candidate
for Governor on one of the three great
party tickets now before the people,
we regard not only as most unwise,
but also grossly unjust. Doctor Brum
baugh, in hia platform anonunclng his
candidacy for Governor of Pennsylva
nia. under date of March 14, 1914,
said:
" '1 have no entangling alliances of
any sort. I am under no promise, no
agreement, made or implied. 1 shall
never bo a party to any such thing. If
elected, it must be with the definite
understanding that I shall be entirely
free to perform my official duties solely
and steadily for the people as a whole.
I shall reverently and humbly en
deavor to do my duty In harmony with
my conscience and under the guidance
Of the Divine. The problem of the
liquor traffic is a vital one facing thb
people and the Legislature to-day. In
harmony with many thoughtful per
sons, I submit that local option is a
practical solution. Any legislative
measure looking to an improvement
of the conditions regulating this traffic
will receive my approval.'
"Under date of March 27, 1914, in a
letter addressed to Dr. E. J. Moore,
superintendent of the Anti-Saloon
League, he said:
" 'I beg to acknowledge your letter
of March 26. and to say that In har
mony with the statement in my plat
form I should feel it my duty to do
what I honorably could to promote the
passage in the next General Assembly
of a county local option bill. I think
I may safely add that my whole life
would give you complete understand
ing of my attitude on the question sub
mitted to me.' ■
"In order to make it impossible for
any honest man to question his real
attitude. Doctor Brumbaugh has re
cently declared in an address widely
circulated:
" 'The great corporations, employ
ing thousands of our tollers, are In
creasingly Insisting that their employes
shall live soberly and economically.
They have added to the mot-al the eco
nomic argument for such regulation of
the liquor traffic as will secure the
highest efficiency of our workers. For
that reason, and because of its moral
meaning, I have declared for local
option in the matter of the sale of
intoxicating liquors. Furthermore, I
will use every honorable means at my
disposal to secure the enactment of
such a law. in order that the people
may, In the several counties of the
Commonwealth, determine for them
selves whether or not licenses shall be
granted for the sale of Intoxicating
liquors.
" 'I wish particularly to state that I
stand absolutely square and resolute
and unchanged in the position 1 have
taken in this matter, and I Invite the
sympathy and support of all fair
minded people. No candidate who is
honest can do more end no candidate
who is sincere can offer from his own
record a better guarantee to the people
of this Commonwealth of his honest
intention and determination to further
this Important measure. In this I am
confident of the support of all fair
minded citizens.'
"In view of the above clear and em
phatic expressions of Doctor Brum
baugh concerning his attitude toward
the temperance cause, and knowing
the personal characteristics of the
man, which make his personal word
better than any political platform that
could be framed, we believe that the
temperance voters of Pennsylvania, in
voting for Doctor Brumbaugh, will be
placing in the executive chamber at
Harrisburg a man who will be a per
fect Gibraltar of strength, not alone
to the great local option movement,
but to every other moral reform as
well.
"We desire to emphasize the fact
that seems to have been partially lost
sight of that, with both of the candi
dates of the two great parties out
spokenly in favor of the local option
measure, the really vital problem be
fore the voters this fall is to elect n.
Legislature—irrespective of party—
who shall be pledged to enact a local
option measure, so that our next Gov
ernor may be able to sign such a
measure."

"Clearfield Report That I Attacked

Stough has wired Dr. M. G. Brum
baugh as follows:
"Clearfield report that I attacked
your character not true. lam fighting
booze crowd. ' Will write you Monday.
"HENRY W. STOUGH."
Dr. Stough's letter to Dr. Brum
baugh is practically a reiteration of
what he in his statement in the
Telegraph on Saturday.
A Mountain City View
Further discussing the matter, the
Altoona Tribune says:
"The Tribune has known Dr. Brum
baugh almost all his life. It has fol
lowed his career with unceasing In
terest and constantly growing ad
miration. As a citizen he has always
stood for the right; as a teacher he
has been a fruitful source of In
spiration and betterment to the teach
ers of Pennsylvania; as a minister of
the gospel he has ever adorned the
sacred calling; as a worker In the
church and Sunday school he has
set a fine example to his fellow
laborers in this field of endeavor; as
the author of works on teaching,
whether in the public school or the
Sunday school, he has done much to
make the path of other teachers
easier. It is too late in the day to
accuse him of drunkenness upon elthei
a public or private occasion. The man
who makes such a charge for political
purposes ought to be made to retract
in the most public and explicit manner
or be prosecuted with the utmost
vigor. Sometimes It becomes a public
duty to do a disagreeably thing."

the commission holds that municipal
authorities are the representatives of

ment upon the authority of the com
mission Its jurisdiction would be in
definitely extended."

dato for Governor.
Party fences have fallen right and

been welcomed, no matter what the

and even Prohibitionists, have been
stamped O. K. by the men who are
lighting local option.
Some of the men indorsed are on
the Republican ticket, but the Demo
crats are pretty well represented and
the Washington party is not out In the
cold.

KREIDER'S RECORD IB
VINDICATED BY FACTS
Dr. Kreider, His Opponent, Un
truthful in His Campaign
Representations
Dr. John H. Kreider, Washington
party candidate for Congress, has
made assertions In a pamphlet issued
some time ago boosting his own candi
dacy that the records at Washington
prove to be not only misleading, but
absolutely untruthful.
Dr. Kreider in this circular and in
speeches has accused Congressman
Kreider of being absent from Wash
ing about two-thirds ol' the time and
asserts that lie failed to vote on such
Important measures as the banking
and currency bill, convict labor made
goods bill, antitrust legislation and
emergency currency bin.
Careful search of the records proves
that the statements made by Dr. Krei
der are false. The Congressional
Record shows that Congressman Krei
der was present and voted or was
paired on every one of the measures
enumerated. Jn fact, instead of being
guilty of absenteeism, the rolls show,
that Congressman Kreider has a very
splendid record for attendance.
The Record shows that from De
cember 1, 1913, to August 25, 1914,
therewere 200 roll calls instead of 118,
as quoted by Dr. Kreider. The one
hundred and eighteenth roll call oc
curred June 19, 1914. Up to this
time Congressman Kreider had missed
only one roll call on a resolution, and
that was the Hensley resolution pro
viding for a naval holiday. He missed
one roll call on ordering the previous
question under special rule. He was
present and voted or was paired on
every bill that came before Congress,
not only to the one hundred.and eigh
teenth roll call, but to the'two hun
dred and fifteenth as well.
I)r. Kreldor's Foolish Chatter
Dr. Kreider also asserts that had
the resolution "Justifying the Presi
dent in using the armed forces of the
United States in enforcing the de
mands made upon General Huerta,
passed, for which Congressman Krei
der Voted, we would in all probability
be at war with Mexico to-day." Un
fortunately tho facts and truth do not
bother Dr. Kreider in making his ar
guments. This resolution was passed
by 337 yeas to 37 nays, and we are
I not at war with Mexico. All of the
other assertions are equally as un
truthful and misleading, especially
so is that in which he refers to Con
gressman Kreider misusing his frank
ing privilege, in which there is not a
word of truth.
With reference to his expense ac
count, Congressman Kreider says that
Dr. Kreider can rest assured that 119
will not spend one cent in publishing
and circulating misleading, malicious
and untruthful statements.
Congressman Krelder's record is so
excellent, not only as to attendance,
but actual achievements, and so fully
meets the approval of his constituents
that he can well afford to ignore the
untruthful vaporings and tho "peanut
politics" in which Dr. Kreider is en
gaged.
Germans Being Beaten
Back on Western Wing
London, Oct. 26, 2.45 A. M.—Tha
Dally Mall's Rotterdam correspondent,
telegraphing Sunday evening says:
"Slowly but surely the Germans ara
being beaten back on the western wing
and old men and young lads are being
hurried to the front. The enemy were
in strong force at Dixmude where the
allies were repulsed once only to at
tack again with renewed vigor.
"Roulers resembles a shambles. It
Was taken and retaken four times and
battered to ruins in the process. Tha
German guns made the place unten
able for the allies.
"An Oosburg message says the firing 1
at Ostend is very heavy and that tha
British are shelling the suburbs which
are held by the Germans. Last night
and this morning large bodies left
Bruges for Ostend. It is believed tha
Ostend piers have been blown up.
"The German officers in Brussels
have been ordered to the western
front. The only points in Belgium
now held strongly by the German are
Liege and Namur."
Another Bribery Scare
to Cover
In order to cover up the usual dis
tribution of Democratic cash under
the reform propaganda of the Pal
mer-McCormick machine the usual re
wards for bribery of voters will ba
ottered in a few days. This is an old,
old game and it is not likely to de
ceive those who understand Its pur
pose. Most of the voters remember
1902.
SPECIALIST DECLARES
DIABETES CURED
Specialists advised the family of David
Brunner, of the Brunner Mercantile
Company, New Orleans, that he was In
a hopeless condition. Patient had had
Diabetes for tlfteen years and Neuritis
had developed. He could hardly sleep
and at times was delirious. The disease
was inherited, patient's father and
brother both dying of Diabetes. Hia
wife would not give up and sent for
Fulton's Diabetic Compound. Improve
ment came In a month, and live months
later patient "was doclared cured by
one of the greatest nerve specialist*
here." Patient writes: (July, 1914)
"You can refer people to me."
Please note that specialists deter
mined the hopeless nature of the dis
ease and later confirmed the patient'*
recovery.
In view of testimony like this from
physicians, how can brother physicians
hold Diabetic patients to Codeine and
certain failure with its unhappy con
sequences when there Is a vegetable
infusion that has the effect to reduc*
sugar in Diabetes and thUB permits re
coveries like the above in many cases.
