AS was to have been expected, the great Commonwealth of Penn sylvania has come out of tho political hysteria and folly that took possession of her people in 1912. Nobody who really understood the people of the Keystone State ever supposed that their desertion of tho sound principles of Republicanism was anything but temporary. Thou sands of our voters were swayed by the extraordinary personality of Theo dore Roosevelt into momentarily iden tifying themselves with a third party. But when the last vestige of an excuse for tho maintenance of a separate party for the promotion of progres sive principles had disappeared, it was inevitable that those who were Re publicans at heart should return to the party that now more than ever embodies their ideals. It was alto gether out of the question to suppose they would align themselves with the party that has only now once more demonstrated Its utter incapacity. Another important factor in bring ing about the result so * overwhelm ingly registered at the polls yesterday, •was the natural revolt of the decent people of Pennsylvania against the unconscionable campaign of personal abuse and misrepresentation that was "waged in opposition to those who stood in the way of the gratification of an inordinate ambition for power. This campaign of abuse started away back in the primaries, when distin guished citizens and life-long Demo crats were subjected to a tirade of billingsgate because'they dared ta of fer themselves as candidates before the members of their party without the consent of the arrogant represen tatives in Pennsylvania of the school master at Washington. Later the guns of mud were trained upon the candidates of the Republican party chosen by tho people in full accord with the fair-play spirit of the uni form primary law, which law was flagrantly outraged by the notorious deal in which the bosses of two de generate machines undertook to thwart the expressed will of the vot ers through the arbitrary taking down of one candidate and setting up of another. Thus in the very first appli cation of a notable reform in the statutes governing the nomination of candidates, those who had been loud est in demanding the reform were foremost In breaking down its pro visions. Could the honest voters be expected to glvo their approval to the Inherent political Immorality of this transaction? Incidentally tho right answer has been given to the question raised in this campaign as to whether the Christian voters of Pennsylvania could be corralled for the promotion of purely personal greed for office. It is doubtful whether any candidate or group of candidates in the future will have the presumption to lay. public claim to the possession of the church vote. Pennsylvania has once more reg istered its tremendous protest against Democratic maladministration at Washington. The whole country will ■understand just what Pennsylvania means. After to-day the Telegraph promises the good women of the many house holds where It Is a twilight visitor that there will bo more attention'given to the intercuts which concern them than those of the politicians, who have had the right of way for months. WEDNESDAY EVENING, OUR NEXT GOVERNOR PERHAPS nothing In the whole campaign of Dr. Martin G. Brumbaugh so endeared him to the people of Pennsylvania and contributed so largely to his triumph ant election as his steadfast devotion to the State and his patriotic defense of the Commonwealth against the as persions of its traducers inside and out. Big of mind and heart and achievement, he will come to Harris burg fully equipped for the discharge of the important duties devolving up on the head of the State government. We of Harrisburg and Dauphin county who have demonstrated In the casting of our ballots our appreciation of the man, will give him a cordial and hospitable greeting characteristic of the good people of this community. He will be one of us for a period of four years, unless the nation shall call him to still higher honors, but wher ever he serves them the people will know that one of Pennsylvania's most distinguished sons is doing honor to the State which has honored him. Meanwhile, if you have not yet planted that tree which you thought of planting, it is not too late. Old and broken trunks should be removed and roplaced by the right sort of shade trees that will add still more to the comfort and beauty of Harrisburg. BUNGLERS. THANKS to the blundering tabtics of the astonishing individuals temporarily in control of the Anti-Saloon organization in Pennsylvania, that organization is confronted with the awkward task of seeking the enactment of a local op tion measure at the hands of a Governor and a legislative ma jority which have come into office despite the misguided efforts of the Anti-Saloon bosses. It is quite evident from the election returns that large numbers of earnest and intelligent advocates of local op tion do not take the present leaders of their movement seriously. With a depressed or sunken walk along the River Front at the top of the slope from North street to Maclay there will be harmony of treatment from one end of the city to the other. And when tills work shall have been completed the peoplo will begin to see for them selves what a wonderful improvement has been under way without the public fully realizing what was going on un der their very eyes. HIS HOME TOWN PRESIDENT JUDGE GEORGE KUNKEL must have a pleasant sensation in the region of the heart as he contemplates the splendid tribute of his home commun ity as displayed in the election returns to-day. He has so conducted himself in the honorable office of judge as to have won the respect and esteem of men of all parties who have given him, with practical unanimity, their vote of confidence in his integrity, ability and devotion to the highest ideals of the judiciary. Senator Penrose was the target for the most bitter and malignant opposi tion that any publio man has ever suffered in a campaign before the peo ple. His triumphant election has dem onstrated again the futility of per sonal abuse, misrepresentation and slande*. He will return to Washing tan for another period of six years to uphold the policies of the Republican party and aid in the inevitable over turn of the free-trade legislation which has plunged the United States into a business and industrial depression. THE RED CROSS SALE PRELIMINARY plans are now being discussed for the annual sale of Red Cross seals for . . Christmas. The thousands of dollars raised annually throughout the United States for the relief of suf fering among the tubercular poor could hardly be devoted to a better cause. » The Red Cross has done more, per haps for the dissemination of knowl edge on how to combat the disease, than any other organization. And it is this knowledge which fundamentally is worth more than the money spent in the actual relief of the white plague victims. But to continue Its good work the Red Cross must have funds. It is not so much how much you give, but that you give something. Every stamp bought means a cent in the Red Cross treasury. And a hun dred pennies mean a dollar. Show that you have within your heart the real Christmas spirit this year by sticking each of your gifts with Red Cross seals. City Commissioner Harry F. Bow man is not strong for geysers when they break out without notice in the midst of a busy street Intersection, as happened yesterday when a great water main blew up at Cameron and Paxton streets. His force was Immediately on the job, however, and comparatively little inconvenience was suffered as a result of the accident. TREES AND SHRUBBERY. IT is not generally known among the people of Harrisburg that the municipal nursery at Island Park Is full to overflowing with trees and shrubbery that will fill up all the open spaces of the park system and pro vide abundant material for planting the river slope. It Is expected that a great deal of planting, including many trees, will be necessary In the wide park that has been created on the River Front south of Paxton street. This park has been growing almost imperceptibly for Beveral years and since the beginning of the excavation for the subways on Mulberry street, hundreds of tons of material have been secured for the filling necessary to grade and put in shape this park. City Commissioner Taylor, as head of the Department of Parks, has also cleaned out the underbrush and ragged planting along the river slope elsewhere, and when the necessary filling shall have been done and the proper grade established, there will be splendid opportunity for still more planting of hardy shrubbery that will not only protect the slope but give It a more attractive finish. When the granolithic walk along the river wall is finished next spring, still more planting will be done along the depressed park at the foot of the slope. This park is in some places quite wide and it will be an easy matter to produce a green sward that will gradually hold the dirt and although it may be flooded at the high stage of the river, no serious damage will result. Those who are familiar with the conditions along the river north of Division street realize that grass will grow luxuriantly cvsn though the river does occasionally sweep over it. It appears to grow as a result of the nourishment that comes from the deposits at high water. Now that the grading is going on along the river front the people are able to see Just how attractive will be this long stretch of park. With abundant planting and care for a year or two the slope and walks will fur nish a delightful resort for thousands of our people. Colonel Theodore Roosevelt will not find much comfort in tho election fig ures to-day. He greatly misjudged the temper of the American people when, putting aside tho principles for which lie has pretended to stand, he broke Into Pennsylvania and advocated the election of a free-trade Democrat as Governor of this Commonwealth. THE TORCH LIGHT PROCESSION JHAT has bece'me of the \l/ old-time torch light pro- W cession?" asks an up-State exchange. Answer—it has emigrated to Ann vllle. At least that Is the last place we heard of one this campaign. Torch light processions used to be pleasant and picturesque featuces of our State and national campaigns. Where is there a man of middle age who has not at some time in his youth shouldered a torch, donned an oilcloth cape, put on a pair of white leggins, a red helmet and went forth to show his colors behind a brass band and dizzy transparencies? And where is the young man, then a boy, who has not stood on a street corner until his ears smarted with the frost and his toes felt like ice.v waiting for the torch light procession to pass? But it is all over. The torch light has been driven out by the electric light. In the glare of a street arc the old-time torch would look like a tal low candle at noon time. Perhaps somebody will invent an electric torch, in which case maybe we shall witness a renewal of these picturesque fea tures of old-time campaigns. Millard F. Saul is Riving a fine exhi bition of hustle in the extension of the important new water main down Front street and out 'Market to the subway. He is not only making' remarkable head way, but Is showing proper regard for the convenience of the people in clos ing up the trench and putting the street in a presentable condition. Mr. Saul will lose no time in having the trench promptly tamped and the street re-* paved. It would be a good thing for the city if all contractors showed the same energy and public spirit in their work. Have you noticed that the Telegraph's circulation has been climbing steadily and that It is higher now than ever be fore in its history? And we shall hope, by printing a better and still better newspaper from day to. day, to merit the continued confidence and good will of a constantly increasing family of readers. This newspaper alms to stand for the progressive and better things of the city, and the co-operation of the people is invited to this end. When the City Council established the cluster lighting system for the cen tral business district it did a splendid thing for the city. One gocd thing deserves another and it is to be hoped that the cluster area will be extended from y.ear to year, so that the attractive feature of this system of lighting may be even more widely appreciated. Those Cumberland Valley Railroad engineers appreciate the fact that the Susquehanna river is now at a lower stage than it is likely to be, perhaps, for years. They are hustling their piers for the new bridge above the level of the stage of the river which is prom ised on completion of the dam. and, unless severe weather Interferes, all the old piers will have been reconstructed before the season for'outdoor work closes. I EDITORIAL COMMENT] New York Sun—Reports from Oyster Bay agree in regarding the Colonel as wholly dissatisfied with the conduct of the campaign and frankly distressed over the condition of the country. In spite of his most valiant efforts he has not been ablfe to get on the front page, a fact which he attributes to malefactors of great wealth, who have entered into a con spiracy to ignore him. Reading News-Times—The Board of Health it appears is embarrassed by the discovery of 57 barrels of ancient and over-ripe sauerkraut, which is held in storage in Reading. We were unaware that any sauerkraut could be too strong or odoriferous for the palates of those who are fond of that highly popular fodstuff. Philadelphia Record—Every lime the Turk has been Involved in war for a century there have been reports that he was going to declare a "Holy War." Either he didn't do it, or the rest of the Moslem world paid no attention. Outside of the Sondan there has been no Holy War. I [From the Telegraph of Nov. 4, 1864.] Captures l'irate Ship Boston.

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH EVENING CHAT Commenting upon the reference in this column the other night to the arch I carrying Kront street over the long buried run which-used to How ioto the Susquehanna near the Olmsted resi dence one of The older Harrisburgers, who probably knows more about the topography and geology of the city than any one else now living, said that he doubted whether the average person realized that there used to be half a dozen creeks or runs that periodically made trouble for the people of Harris burg. 'lYou must remember that this city wui laid out on bottom land, and 100 years ago there was a pond In Market Square, which an old-timer named Agnew used to make John Harris, the younger, about as mad as he ever got," said he. "This pond was due to the liow from a spring about where the Shelter printinghouse sands, and you will tind in old books and newspapers references to the •swampy' condition of the Square in Harris' city. One day Agnew got mad and, taking his fishing line, went ang ling in the Square and told people who thought he had been smitten by the moon that he was fishing for bass in the cenifcr of Harris' State Capital. Where State street grass lots now or nament the city was a plain swamp then, and some thriving, pretty parts of Harrlsburg owed their boggy condi tion to creeks which traversed the land now covered by homes." The Paxton creek in those days was the father of mischief, much as It used to be in the days before a score or so of public-spirited men of Harris burg put the improvement loans through and councils . passed them, with William Jennings as pilot. The creek used to roam all over the valley, winding from the line of the old canal to the base of the bluff Just east of Cameron street. City Engineer Cowden says many men now living recall when its course was straight ened. Spring creek was not in Har risburg then. The worst creek, next to the troublesome Paxton, was known at Tannery run. It is the creek which went into the river near Walnut street, according to City Clerk Charles A. Miller. The run started up about where the Verbeke street market houses stand and meandered down the line, of what is now Third street to near Forster, and then cut across to Grace Church site, thence across Sec ond just below the synagogue and un der the present Elks' Club, turning into the river between the Olmsted and McCormiek residences. It was called Tannery run because there were sev eral tanneries along it, among them Zinn's, where the Academy of Medi cine now stands; Greenawalt's, where the Olmsted residence stands, and an other. This creek also received the flow from the spring which kept Mar ket Square so wet for a long time. About 1820 the branch was walled up and covered over. Once In a while Tannery run is uncovered and traces of both it and its branch have been found in digging cellars or sewers. Foundry run, another nuisance, started up around Seventh and Reily streets and came down east of the Sixth street ridge. It made a turn near State and Cowden streets and had a deep gully, especially where St. Lawrence's Church stands, says Dr. Hugh Hamilton. It probably went just above the Market street subway and was such an annoyance that they built a culvert to carry the canal over it. It wits called Foundry run be cause several foundry plants were lo cated near it, especially in the district now being cleared for extension of Capitol Park. Up town there was a run which is recalled by many as pass ing into the river near the Schudde mage property. It drained some springs over in what was known for years as the Reily farm. The creek valley and clown town had numerous small runs. Indian run rose from a big spring just south of Paxton street and flowed into the river when It did not, overflow and go into the Paxton. It was just beiow Harris' ferry and tradition says that it had very line water and was a favorite with the Indians, hence its name. Brookwood run started out in the East End, on the old Rudy farm, and went down Mish's Hallow, passing through what use to be known as Hanna's woods, one of the beauty spots of Harrisburg before the Civil War and the great picnic place. It had a branch that rose, in what is now Beverly Place. There was another run that went down the line of Crescent street to the creek, arising somewhere about Thirteenth and Derry, probably from the spring which was succeeded by the Thompson pump. Haehnlen's run went down the bluff about on a line of Walnut street and got its name because it rose on the Haehnlen farm along tne old Jonestown road. It is recalled by some old residents that there was an other run that starred from a spring near the State Arsenal and went through the Forster property about Herr street, being called in later year's Sibletown run. Farther up was Asy lum rtin, which still exists, although now sewered. Traces of these old waterways are found from time to time and generally I some masonry or brickwork in good j condition is discovered showing that they presented in old days the prob lems which we are solving by paving and walling Paxton creek. In days goncby many a bullfrog was'"spear ed'' along their banks, and possibly the kids of those times dammed them up and got their feet wet walking on [the ice. Paxton and Spring creeks will go the same way some time and ! maybe it will not be long. 1 WELL KNOWN PEOPLE ") —Lindley M.

UNCLE SAM'S SHREWDNESS "Girard" in the Public Ledger says: "Here's a crumb of comfort that looks like at least a billion dollars. If Europe does sell back to us the stocks and bom's which our daddies sold to foreigners, we will get them at the lowest price of 15 years. "That's one tlgure to remember when you talk about this matter. An other is this: The commodities we are selling to Europe are stimulated by war so that many of them, liko wheat, are bringing about the highest price in as many years. Result: If we can sell the products of mine, fac tory and farm for these high prices and pay off our debt to Europe at the low figure prevailing, Uncle Sam will have made a bargain quite worthy of all his traditional Yankee shrewdness. "There could be worse things for the United States than swapping high priced commodities for low-priced se curities." EXPENSE ACCOUNTS ARE NEXT IN ORDER Some Interesting Statements Are Expected to Be Filed at the Capitol Very Soon Now that the election Is over the next thing in order will be the filing (.f expense accounts and they must be put on record by the evening of December 3. In case no expense ac count is filed the person offending can be stopped from taking the oath of office and if a defeated candidate should tail to file and should be elect ed to an office in years to come pro ceedings to stop him taking the oath can be taken. There is no way of r.voldtng the expense account. Under the law the expense accounts must be filed by candidates and poli tical committees within thirty days and there is general interest in what the candidates will return. Men run ning for State offices must file their ac counts at the Capitol and district can didates must file in the office of the clerk of the courts of their home county. The Palmer-McCormick league, which did not file expertse accounts frt-m all of the counties receiving con tributions from the boss league in be half of McCormlck In the primary, must file expense accounts this time. In the next few days there will prob ably be a bunch- of preemptions of party names for next year's elections. The fact that there will be no State election next Fall, but only the Preemptions county ;i,nd municipal Will Blossom will make no Very Shortly difference. There will be some enterprising citizens who will preempt names of various kinds and there will be the •usual rivalry to see how quickly names likely to be catchy will be clamped down. Last year a dozen or more party names were preempted within a fortnight of the election. Inci dentally none of them appears to have been used this year. The Democrats will continue to hold first place on the ballot forms Issued by the State government until after the election for Presi dent in 1916. Under the Ballot law the party winning Order out in a presidential elee- Staiuls tion has the right to lead the ballot and that is why the Democrats led the ballot this year. The Washington party was second for the same reason and the Republicans third. This posi tion is believed to be worth hundreds, maybe more, votes and has been a feature of the law now governing the printing of ballots. On the nonparti san ballots the. names are arranged In alphabetical order. The extent of the disorganization prevailing in the Democracy was strongly illustrated yesterday in Phila delphia. On Monday night for the first time in many years the Democrats Democratic city com- Shattered mittee difi not have a in Phila. meeting and many of the Palmer - McCor mlck leagues failed utterly to meet. When the polls opened there were no Democratic watchers in some districts, the Democratic machine having relied on volunteers, who of course, fell down at the start and who were dis concerted by the tremendous Repub lican vote in the early hours. Then the Old Guard Democrats came out and proceeded to vote the Republican ticket. In no place was the disorgan ized condition of the Democratic party under the Palmer-Morris-McCormiclt leadership so apparent. Some of the results in the counties of the State paralyzed the folks at the Democratic State windmill and they were gasping to-day. Most of the people Results frankly admitted that Daze the it was a landslide and Losers laughed at the plight of the remnant of the Washington party. The j Central Democratic Club will now pro ceed to get down to earth and the Palmer-McCormick league will fade away, taking with it the hopes of some folks of landing in nice fat berths on Capitol Hill. The gloom at the Wash ington party headquarters was so thick this morning that no one could get through It to open the door. The few followers of Teddy the Terrible in this city will commence to ask how they came to be fooled by McCormlck.

Millions of her people are homeless or shivering In the remnants of their homes, without work, without food, without clothing for the winter brawing near. This desolation of a State, this beggary of a people, this wide mournful range of misfortune is spread before the eyes of the American people, soon to keep public fes.tival of their prosperities, their merciful exemption from the dis asters that darken so much of the world. On Thanksgiving Day, on this ■jay, on every day, and most of all In this sad time, it is not with ratting of comfortable stomach and Tharlsaical appreciation of our isolation fr«m the sharp sufferings of others that we can thank and remember God. Let the old text rise up in the memory from forgotten youthful Sundays, from the dimmed clean sanctuaries of child hoob: "For I was an hungered, and ye gave me meat; I was thirdly ar-d ye gave me drink; I was a stranger, and >c took me in: "Naked, and vc clothed mt: 1 was sick, and we visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unt > me." No question of nationality, no opin ion as to the causes of the war, clogs the sympathies whk-h eve-y generous heart, feels for the Helgians. They mus: be fed or they will starve. Help them all you can. YOUR KIND OF HEADACHE The headache which In addition to the pain, gives the impression of a tight band about the head, is caused by nervous exhaustion. It is a bless ing in disguise because it gives warn ing that you are overdrawing your supply of nervous energy. Unless you stop the mental fatigue and build up your nerves you will be fortunate if you escape nervous breakdown, some form of paralysis or other severe nervous disorder. Rest is, of course, desirable but not I always possible and liable to be de ferred. With sufficient rest the nerves will build themselves up. Failing in this, you need something: that will build them up and sustain them while they are kept moderately at work. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are probably un equaled for this purpose. They build up the nerves in the only possible way, by enriching tho blood with the ele ments the nerves need. The treat ment is one of nutrition of the nerve cells, requiring a nonalcoholic tonic and Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have proved useful in so many severe cases that every sufferer is justified In giv ing them a trial for any form of nervous debility. They contain no opiate or harmful drug. A little book on Nervous Disorders will be sent free on request by the Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Schenectady, N. Y. All druggists sell Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.—Advertisement. Q.OO- Round Trip New York Sunday, Nov. 22 Special Train Leaves Harrisburg 5.45 A. M. RETURNING, leave* Pennsyl vania Station, New York.

War is destructive, wasteful, brutal, yet The energies of men are brought to play, And children valor by occasion met Leaps to the light, as precious jewels may When earthquakes rend the rock. The stress and strain Of war stirs men to do their worst and best. Heroes are forged on anvils not with pain And splendid courage comes but with the test. Some natures ripen and some virtues bloom Only In blood-red soil; some souls prove great Only in moments dark with death or doom. This is the sad historic jest which fate Flings to the world, recurring time on time Many must fall that one may seem sublime. 11. Above the choas of impending ills. Through all the clamor of insistent strife. Now while the noise of warring na tions fills Each throbbing hour with menaces to life, I hear the voice of Progress! Strange indeed The shadowed pathways that lead up to light. But as a runner sometimes will recede That he may so accumalate his might, Then with a will that needs must be obeyed Rushes resistless to the goal with ease. So the whole world seems now to re trograde. Slips back to war, that it may spei.d to peace. And in that backward step it gathers force For the triumphant finish of its course.
