Taking just what you could carry And the country forced to roam— With no friend whom you could call on To grant shelter to your kin. But on all sides witness thousands Who the same sad plight were In. That's the fate of the poor Belgians, Who through no fault of their own Have been robbed of all possessions, I>eft to suffer and to moan. Without food and without shelter, And in many cases, too. With the father, dead, or facing Death with patriotism true. Think it over, do it quickly, Then dig down into your jeans, Give some coin to fill the "Thelma" You can help to be the means That will aid some fellow creature Who Is struggling now to live— Give a nickel, dime or dollar— Much or little —only GIVE, HARRISBURG t&SfsSg- TELEGRAPH CUNNINGIUM FOR ( MB GENERAL Westmoreland Attorney It Promi nently Mentioned For Place in Brumbaugh Cabinet MAN OF MANY ATTAINMENTS 1- " Lewis Files His Expense Account; ( Democrats Preparing to Show ' What They Spent The name of Jesse E. B. Cunning ham, First Deputy Attorney General and the right-hand man of James Scarlet in prosecution of the Capitol cases from start to finish, is being prominently mentioned for the attor ney generalship in the cabinet of Gov ernor-elect Martin G. Brumbaugh. Mr. Cunningham was formerly district at- « torney of Westmoreland county, where ' he made a notable record, and his ' work as Deputy Attorney General has t been watched by the whole State. As t solicitor for the State Board of Edu cation he has been thrown into inti- s mate relations with the Governor-elect. > If Mr. Cunningham should be named Attorney General and Mr. Hargest named judge in event of Judge Kunkel going on the Supreme bench, it would mean two places to be filled in tho legal department. The Inauguration is occupying much attention at Philadelphia and plans are being made to ask men from forty wards to march in one club. The Vare contingent will mako one of the most notable of demonstrations and the McNichol people will also make an effort. Senator Penrose is to bo given a complimentary dinner by the Clover Club In Philadelphia on November 13. Dr. Brumbaugh and his father will start for Florida late In the week. The new Governor has promised to take this trip for a long time, lie will be away until early in December and does not want to be bothered while In the South. Richard J. Baldwin, the war horse of Republicanism in Delaware county, is a candidate for Speaker of thfc House. Mr. Baldwin is one of the old members and will make a contest. The boom for George \V. Williams, of Tioga, and that of R. P. Habgood. of McKean, have collided in the interior counties and there will be some inter esting developments. The Philadelphia delegation is divided between Wilson, Gans and Roney, while Allegheny is Inclined to Woodward. Colonel James Madison Guffey, of Pittsburgh, former Democratic na tional committeeman, has declined to be interviewed on the result of the election, but it is stated that he smiled broadly when he declined to talk. Just what will happen to Congress man A. Mitchell Palmer is a matter of speculation. Almost every place is be ing trotted out for him, but neither he nor the President appears to be savins, anything. Palmer is mentioned for everything from a Cabinet office to a place on the federal district bench. Secretary Bryan appears to be thankful it was not worse, judging from the tone of his comment on the election. For the first time in many years Lycoming county will be represented by two Republicans in the Legislature. Ralph Gibson was re-elected without trouble and John Luppert, who de feated Ansel Ulman, well known here, is a former burgess of South Williams port and a manufacturer. He is a strong Republican. Mr. Ulman made many friends here last session. The Lycoming chairman is James C. Wat son. formerly assistant counsel of the Railroad Commission, and he is getting bouquets. The expense account of Charles A. Shaffer, Columbia county representa tive, shows that he spent but $1«4.5» to be re-elected. Clerks in Democratic State head quarters are hard at work on the making up of the expense account for the recent election and it will be tiled as soon as possible. The officials at the headquarters say that they do not intend to wait until the last day, but to get their reports on file promptlv. No intimation of the amounts involved has been given, but it is stated that the number of contributors to the Statb committee's funds will run over 3,000. The time for filing expense accounts will expire December 3. Fred E. Lewis, the Washington party candidate for Secretary of Inter nal Affairs, tiled his statement to-day, showing that he spent $1,789.57 and that nobody gave him any contri butions. He paid $1,500 to the State committee's treasury. 1 EDITORIAL COMMENT | Wilkes-Barre Record. —And we sup pose that President Wilson will define last Tuesday's rout as a psychological defeat. Philadelphia Press.—Now if the Washington administration will turn its attention to the pacification of Mex ico once more—or as many times more as may be necessary—and let business alone perhaps the country will be able to straighten up.
