QUARANTINED BEEF
THE epidemic of foot and mouth
disease that has resulted In a
cattle quarantine of four States
* is really of serious proportions.
The end is not in sight. New cases
are reported in large herds almost
every day and a-spread of the quaran
tine would add jto the price of meat
beyond question.
Grave as the situation is, however,
it would be far more so did the quar
antine apply to dressed beef as well as
to livestock. Were the supply of killed
animals cut off the East would be in a
short time face to face with a meat
famine of gigantic proportions.
Government officials, beyond whose
decision there is no appeal, are un
willing to express an opinion as to the
duration 01" the quarantine, but if it
continues there will be a sharp ad
vance in beef both East and West, and
the packers, for once at least, cannot
be held to blame. Possibly a vege
tarian diet would not be so bad lor
some of us, but It Is not pleasant to
contemplate. A juicy steak after a
chill Fall day is far more alluring in
Its prospects than a dish of mock
duck or cereal pudding.
After the election of Tuesday Presi
dent Wilson need not worry much about
that one-term plank in the Baltimore
platform.
What has become of that Democratic
peace triumph in Mexico? Which one
of the three capitals does President
Wilson recognize?
GEORGE V. COIIL
IN the death of George V. Corl, for
mer fire chief of Harrisburg, the
city has suffered a real loss.
Through the efforts of Mr. Corl
as chief engineer of the fire depart
ment and as a member of the City
Councils many valuable improve
ments were made in both the fire
equipment and regulations. Mr, Corl
Joined the Friendship company way
back in '59 and ho saw the volunteer
department's growth year by year un
til the Harrisburg department became
one of the most important in the
State. One of the very last things Mr.
Corl did before his death was to ride
on the Friendship company's new mo
tor truck during the big firemen's
convention.
Not only was Mr. Corl an efficient
official, but he was a good private
citizen, a brave soldier and a man
honored by one of the most Important
secret orders in the United States.
That he was a man who could be
depended upon is seen most clearly In
the fact that for fifty years he stood
at the forge of his blacksmith shop
attending to the work of his trade and
the details of his business.
The Telegraph feels his loss par
ticularly because during the last years 1
of his life he was the man who had
charge of the roasting of the corn at
the annual corn roast of the Telegraph
Family and was the life of many a
pleasant outing party on McCormick's
Island, a friend and cheery companion
of everybody present.
The Colonel says that he Is not going
back Uo the Republican party. Well,
the party seems to be doing very well
without him.
The pity of It Is that Santa Claus',
reindeers will not dare risk the rapid
tire guns of the war zone.
IF AN ENEMY INVADED
THE sensational English rovellst,
and of late days essayist, H. G.
Wells, pokes fun at the Idea of
a German invasion of Great
Britain. In a letter to his country
men he bids them be of good cheer;
** that the Germans will never dare at
tempt a landing on British soil and
that not a single company of trained
troops should be held at home as a
result of the Kaiser's threat.
Mr. Wells proceeds to explain what
would happen if an Invading force did
land in England. He says there would
bo no question of international rules
of war. Every Englishman capable of
bearing arms would rush to the de
fense of his home. The sniping of
Germans in Belgium would pale into
insignificance beside the armed resist
ance of Britishers against the dese
cration of their hearthstones by the
traditional enemy.
It Is altogether likely that Mr. Wells
has sized up the situation very well.
Wo are Inclined to believe that an
invading enemy in England would And
himself In much the same position as
we Imagine an armed force would did
it try to penetrate the Interior of the
United States. Americans may be
slow to go to war, but we cannot think
of a man capable of shouldering a gun
' or leveling a revolver who would not
place himself with his neighbors 'in
the path of an invading army. We
FRIDAY EVENING, HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH NOVEMBER 6, 1914.
imagine in such an instance that there
would be no asking or giving of quar
ter, and what would happen here
would very likely be the case in Eng
land under similar circumstances.
A noted general wan once* asked,
"Would it be possible for an Invading
army to enter the United States?" And
he replied: "To be sure an invading
army could come in; its great trouble
would be to get out." Perhaps the
same applies with respect to Germany
and England In the present instance.
Dr. W. C. Farrabee has been forced
to discontinue liis explorations in South
America. And just when he was get
ting into the region of the River of
Doubt, too.
TWO SIDES TO MATRIMONY
THE funny weeklies love to depict
husband at home with the ba
bies and mother out at a blub
meeting, but the ' other way
around is the usual thing in
households. There is the instance re
cently of man of high position who
sued his wife, the mother of his three
children, for divorce on the ground
that she was extravagant and refused
to permit him to help choose her
women friends.
Replying, the woman admitted that
her fondness for beautiful things did
lead her Into debt at times, but in
stead of reasoning with her, telling
her just how much money he was
earning and how much he could af
ford to have her spend, the husband
cursed and raved and threatened to
divorce her everytlme she contracted
a debt or made a new friend. "I
wanted him," she told the judge, "to
tell me how much money I ought to
spend. He didn't want me to spend
any. I wanted a little more freedom,
and not have him question me at every
turn—it made me feel so like a pris
oner."
But the husband, she continued,
after every fresh "outbreak, left home
at a time and she did not
know where he spent his time. She
never made complaint nor asked him
how much money he spent nor who
his friends were.
Of course, the end was certain. No
two people can long continue to live
under the same roof with such condi
tions prevailing.
The husband, however, felt himself
the only injured party and he was
the one to bring suit for divorce. And
what do you thing the court's decision
was? What would yours have been
under the same circumstances? Would
you have agreed with the husband or
have pitied the wife?
The judge must have been a rather
exceptional man. He granted the
woman a divorce with alimony and
the care of the children, and here is
what he said:
It is inevitable that the effect of
the present radical changes, giving
woman greater .economic and po
litical independence, recognizing
her rights as a human being of
self-direction, should be an in
crease in divorces. The new and
loftier conception of equal rights
and duties lias naturally rendered
the wife more sensitive to en
croachment, and the reaction is
bound to make Itself felt.
Alarming as that may seem, It
must be clear that it is only a
period of transition from an old
regime to a new; a struggle of ad
-1 justment preceding more whole
some conditions In the family,
placing marriage upon a better
basis and with a sure guarantee of
its permanency.
There is a lesson in this for many
a husband and wife in Harrisburg.
There can be no two standards in the
home. The wife Is entitled to the
same freedom of thought and action
as the husband. She ought to know
her husband's finances to the penny.
A little reason, a little thought one
for the other would keep many a
home together that is split on the rock
of the divorce court.
"Back to the farm" Is the title of an
editorial in a leading magazine. Our
experience is that the average farmer
needs a back about as much as any
thing else.
Ed. W. Howe, in his Monthly for No
vember, says that "reformers, with all
their talk of honesty, have made ex
travagance a greater menace than graft
ever was." If he is talking about the
Democratic rivers and harbors bill he
could find considerable of both in It.
ELECTION RESULTS
LEADING Progressive newspapers,
like the Philadelphia North
American and others through
out the country, agree that the
real cause of the Democratic defeat
| last Tuesday was the revulsion of pub
'lic sentiment against the Wilson Ad
; ministration. There can be little
doubt that the opposition to the tariff
tinkering of the present administra
tion produced the landslide. The
North American says "that public
opinion was overwhelmingly against
the Democratic party and the policies
of the President was perfectly plain
during the first half of the present
year. Open expressions of it sub
sided, however, during the threatening
crisis over Mexico, the general view
being that patriotism demanded the
quieting of partisan criticism."
Discussing the meaning of the elec
tion further, the New York Sun says:
Business demands to be let
alone, to make money lawfully, to
go its way on Its own initiative and
without the everlasting Injection
of Federal Interference. Politics
has been kicking business for
years. Business took its revenge
by kicking politics last Tuesduy.
Everybody is ready to do justice to
Mr. Wilson's admirable arid noble
dualities. But the work of Con
gress Is bis work. The renaissance
of the Republican party proves that
that work has not satisfied, has
greatly dissatisfied, millions of
voters. And they are dissatisfied
because they see that with ail this
tine intention and all these, tine
woTds at Washington. It is to be
come harder and not easier to make
a living.
Already the beneficial results of the
overturn of the Democracy is shown
in a better business sentiment and
greater confidence among the people
generally.
Every man Is doubtless entitled to his
own opinions, but he ought to make a
pretty careful examination of them be
fore he airs them In public. A man Is
much more likely to be Judged by his
expressed opinions than by the clothes
he wears.
Cheer up, there is one hopeful gleam
along the horizon. Cranberries are
cheap and turkeys are said to be plen
tiful.
EVENING CHAT 1
Harrisburg people will be Interested
to know that in the coming year one
naval officer whose home is in this city
and a number of others well known
will retire. The Harrlsburger is Pay
Director John N. Speel, a member of
an old family of this city and related
to a number of residents of Dauphin
county. He will retire July 30 after a
long term of service. Reali Frazer,
also a Ponnsylvanian in the pay corps
of the navy, will retire In August,
itear Admiral George S. Willetts. now
at Philadelphia, is also duo to retire
with Admirals P. K. Beatty and Al
fred Reynolds, well known to many
Pennsylvanians. The only rear ad
miral from this section is now retired.
He is Edwin Longnecker, who now
makes his home at Wernersville. He
comes from Cumberland county and
married a daughter of the late Jacob
S. lialdeman. who was for years a
member of the diplomatic corps.
Karl Steward, the well-known up
town resident, is being heartily con
gratulated these days, but he does not
like it. Mr. Steward is being taken for
Congressman Aaron S. Kreider. The
resemblance between the two is
marked and Mr. Steward began to no
tice It two years ago when the congress
man ran. At that time he was stopped
In the street and talked to. This year
it was wor.se. and now that Mr. Kreider
has been re-elected he is hearing from
the people who want to tell him how
happy they are at the result of the
election.
When the Supreme Court meets
next, which will be In Philadelphia,
there will be no chief justice. The
term of Chief Justice D. Newlin Fell,
of Philadelphia, will expire on the first
Monday of January, and whether It be
our own townsman, George Kunkel, as
everyone about here and in many other
counties hope, or Judge R. S. Frazer,
he will go to the extreme left on the
bench and Justice J. Hay Brown, of
Lancaster, will become chief justice.
Both Justices Brown and Mestrezat
were commissioned in the same year,
but the Lancaster jurist is senior in
commission.
Some odd bets are being heard of.
One was reported last night when a
mar. turned over 1,000 bright new pen
nies to a friend who had bet him that
Dr. Brumbaugh would have over
100,000 majority.
According to a story which is going
the rounds, the elevatorman who is
general manager of transportation be
tween the floors of the Patriot building
in Market Square is going back to Vir
ginia for a visit.
The elevator magnate Is a colored
man and the story goes that an en
thusiastic McCormick partisan offered
him a five-to-one bet the day before
election. Now neither the McCor
mick man or the elevator man were
aware, any more than most of the resi
of us, that this county was going to
join the state in doing something
awl'ul. So the conversation might be
put down this way:
"I'll bet you five to one, hundreds,
that McCormick wins."
"Go 'way, man. Wheah'd I git a
hundred ?"
"Go, dip it up. The bet'll be wait
ing." *
The man went, "dug" and came
back with one hundred begged or
borrowed and put up the money.
Recent information is that he con
templates going down to see his old
home. He never had so much inoncj
in his life.
One of the stories about the election
that is going aronud is a good one and
illustrates that people have gotten ac
customed to exercising the referendum
in Pennsylvania, although some of the
radicals say that we have no such
liberties. This man went to the polls
early Tuesday and fussed around, look
ing at things and acting as if he were
hunting something.
"What are you looking for?" asked
a friend who had watched him.
"Why, the amendments we have to
vote for." was the answer.
This man had become so accustomed
to voting for the numerous amend
ments that we have had lately that
he expected another.
The banks of the Susquehanna and
the small creeks in this county are
just now bright with the leaves of the
sumac and they are attracting much
attention from the lovers of leaves
when the color pot of Jack Frost has
been at work. Many of the small trees
lining the river are covered with leaves
with the most delicate of pinks, while
there are some which are brilliant red
in one place and almost orange In
others. In fact, the appearance of the
trees now is a delight to the eye in
every way.

WHAT THE ELECTION MEANS
[New York Sun.]
The Bull Moose has vamoosed. Mr.
Wilson, whose seal and certificate were
everywhere relied upon the primei
credentials of Democratic candidates,
appears again in his actual position as
a minority President. These Inelucta
ble facts stand out to every eye in the
election returns.
SECOND DEGREE VERDICT
Special to The Telegraph
Hagerstown, Md., Nov. —-John H.
Wlngert, who shot and killed Police
man John C. Middlekauff in tills city
last August while the officer was try
ing to arrest him, after being on trial
for a day and a half at Cumberland,
was found guilty yesterday afternoon
01 murder In the second degree. The
jury considered the low mentality of
the prisoner in reaching a verdict.
Wingert's case was removed from this
county to Cumberland on the ground
that he could not get a fair and Im
partial trial here. The maximum pen
alty for second degree murder here is
eighteen years.
MAJORITY REALLY
PICKED PENROSE
Results of Election Show That the
Senator Was the Choice of
the People
DEMOCRATS ARE STILL DAZED
But Laugh at the Piffle of Josephus
Daniels; Windmill Folks
Guessing Now
Although the official count will be
required to show just how great the
plurality of Senator Boles Penrose
really is and whether It will approxi
mate the quarter million which he
predicted for himself some months
ago, the returns printed this morning
demonstrate that the Senator, who
was the target of the most virulent
abuse ever poured out in the State, is
actually the choice of almost a ma
jority of the voters of the State. When
one considers that for four years the
mud batteries of the Democratic and
Progressive papers and orators and
candidates have been working twenty
hours a day against the Philadelphia
leader, and that yards and yards were
written by Democratic folks at the
Market Square windmill about the
Siege of Penrose, his vote Is astonish
ing. The latest figures show that
1,026,569 persons votdd for Senator
and of this number 606,135 voted for
Penrose. It is certainly the expres
sion of the voice of the people In a
direct primary which was conceived
to defeat him, and which men pre
dicted would prove his Appomattox.
In the same tones the voice of the peo
ple gave Pinchot 260,602 and Palmer
259,832.
—Senator Charles H. Kline, of
Pittsburgh, president pro tem, of the
Senate, will be re-elected when the
Senate meets. The Senate is heavily
Republican and no one yet knows how
big the Republican vote in the next
House will be. Anyhow, It's not going
to be any long session." It will be
short and active. C. J. Roney has
been added to those who have been
talked of for Speaker. Philadelphlans
now talked of are W. H. Wilson, T. F.
McNicliol, John Reynolds and Roney.
James F. Woodward, of McKeesport,
who was chairman of appropriations
committee under Cox, wants it; Fred
C. Ehrhart, of Scranton, oldest Re
publican member, is after It, and R. P.
Habgood is also out for it. Had R. S.
Frey, of Wrightsville, been elected, he
would have been a contender.
—Down in Congressman Palmer's
county of Monroe a spirited woman
elected a temperance candidate for the
Legislature by the free use of stickers.
Old-time politicians of both Republi
can and Democratic parties looked on
and laughed, but she won out.
—John M. Flynn will come back to
the Legislature from Elk county.
Representative Flynn is "the Father of
the House' and had a tremendous ma
jority this year.
—Among the new members of the
House will be Fred T. Fruit, who
comes from Mercer county and who
was a boy in Harrisburg when his
father, Senator James Fruit, repre
sented the Mercer district in the
Senate.
—C. William Beales, ex-Postmaster
of Gettysburg, will take the place of
Congressman Brodbeck In the York
district.
-—Robert P. Habgood will come
back to the Legislature after serving
a term as postmaster at Bradford. He
has been secretary of the Stale Edi
torial Association for ten years and is
widely known among newspapermen.
He was strongly urged as Speaker of
the House about the time he retired
from the Legislature in 1907. Mr.
Habgood is also chairman of the ex
ecutive committee of the Pennsylvania
Associated Dailies and was one of four
delegates-at-large to the Republican
national convention in 1908. One of
the points urged In his favor for the
speakership is the fact it has been
twenty-three years since the northern
tier has had the chair.
—William S. Lelb, resident clerk of
the House, was given a good many
congratulations on the way Schuylkill
behaved in the election and members
elect are pledging him their support
for rc-electlon. This is the way
Schuylkill voted: Brumbaugh 16,121,
McCormick 13,103. Heaton won over
Lee for Congress, receiving 17,213
against 12,416, Thorn, the Washington
candidate, getting only 816, while
Thomas, Socialist, got 1,619. McClaln
got 14,246 and Houck 14,688. There
will be only one Democrat in the leg
islative delegation, the members-elect
being A. C. Schaeffer, A. B. Garner,
Christ Becker, C. M. Palmer and J. E.
Sones. Becker is a Democrat, who
was abused by the Patriot last session.
John Robert Jones lost by 600.
—Senator William E. Crow, who
was defeated regularly by the Demo
crats and Bull Moosers before the
election, won in the Fayette district,
receiving 9,903 to 8,539 for the hand
picked fusion candidate. Represen
tative C. C. Goss, Democrat, was de
feated.
—Ansel Ulman, Democrat, lost in
Lycoming county. For the first time
in years both members from that
county will be Republicans.
—Democrats who heard Secretary
of the Navy Josephus Daniels speak
here last Spring are commencing to
laugh at the efforts of the piffling
North Carolina man, who tried to tell
Pennsylvania how to vote. Now he
says that the effects of the war de
feated the Democrats.
—People who noted the activities
of the Rev. Dr. C. F. Swift, the
preacher - lecturer - representative of
Beaver county, at the snap temperance
meeting here last September, will be
interested to know that he was de
feated for re-election as member from
Beaver county. Beaver Is one of our
leading insurgents, too.
—Late returns confirm early reports
that Penrose and Brumbaugh carried
every ward In Philadelphia.

WHAT IS THE REASON?
By Wfnit Dinger
"Purely psychological,"
To this they all did cling.
When Democrats explained the cause
Of the hard times last Spring.
Then, when the big campaign was on,
The past few months or so,
"Twas purely local—just set up
By foes, so votes would grow."
Now they sing a different tune,
Since the election's o'er.
They say "Hard times are brought
about
Through European war."
But I'm inclined to think the cause
la what it was before.
When hard times reigned wilh Demo
crats
And no one was at war.

I EDITORIAL COMMENT!
Philadelphia North American. —The
outstanding fact in the results of last
Tuesday's elections is the nation-widi.
sweep of anti-Democratic sentiment
No logical discussion of local or state
results anywhere can be had without
lirst considering the unmistakable con
demnation of the Wilson policies.
Philadelphia ledger. These two
powerful factors —a European demand
for enormous supplies which we alone
can furnish and the elimination of all
fear of more radical laws —unite to
day to put a new face upon almost
every form of trade. Every business

The Heights.
The heights by great men reached and
kept
Were not attained by sudden flight,
But they, while their companiona
slept.
Were toiling upward in the night.
Standing on what too long we bore
With shoulders bent and downcast
eyes.
We may discern—unseen before —
A path to higher destinies.
Nor deem the irrevocable Past
As wholly wasted, wholly vain,
If, rising on its wrecks, at last
I To something nobler we attain.
I —Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.
