PASSENGER RATES
WHILE the railroads in raising
their passenger rates are onl>
following out the recommen
dations of the Interstate Com
merce Commission, there is danger
that they are proceeding in the wrong
direction when they make wholesale
advances in suburban fares. The sub
urban passengers are largely of two
classes, the men or women who live In
the small town or country and work in
the city and those who maintain sum
mer cottages in the country. In either
case a serious rise in fares will have
the effect in the end of decreasing the
total receipts of the company, unless
past experience counts for nothing.
It has been found invariably to be
the case that where suburban street
car lines have reduced fares, or what
Is in most instances equivalent, have
enlarged their transfer privileges, a
gain in earnings has immediately fol
lowed. The suburban steam line is no
different in this respect from the sub
urban trolley. Indeed, the steam road
has maintained its supremacy in many
quarters only for the reason that it
has been able to operate at less cost
to the passenger than the electric line.
A sharp advance In suburban rates
■xvill have several tendencies, none of
which promise to be of advantage to
•the railroad. If the commuting rates
are advanced to any considerable ex
tent the effect will be to drive many
commuters to residence in the city.
lAlso, such a condition will, beyond
doubt, deter many from building in the
suburbs who would otherwise do so.
The margin between living expenses
and salary In most families is so small
that five of ten cents a day difference
In car fare becomes an item of prime
Importance in the economy of the
household and one that enters largely
Into the calculations of even the more
prosperous. Suburban life has grown
because real estate values and rents
are less out of the city than in, but if
this advantage is nullified by any cause
the trend back to the city will become
at once apparent.
It is unquestionably true that the
prosperity of the railroads and the
country at large demands that the re
ceipts of the railroads be increased,
but it Is doubtful if the Interstate
Commerce Commission has taken the
proper course. The 5 per cent, ad
vance in freight rates asked for by the
railroads would have fallen largely on
about 90 to 95 per cent, of the entire
population in such small proportion
as to have been felt by very few. The
passenger rate increases must be borne
by about 10 per cent, of the people,
which constitutes the traveling public,
and in many Instances will mean real
hardship.
STEELTON'S STREETS
STEELTON is patterning after Har
rlsburg in the matter of street Im
provements. The borough has
now over seven miles of paved
thoroughfares, which places it well up
among the leaders of towns of its size
In this respect.
A peculiar feature of street paving
is that communities are induced only
after great difficulty to begin, but,
once started, and the advantages are
realized by the people, there is never
a moment of hesitation, and nearly
always more work Is done than was
(contemplated at the outstart. In these
days of motor-driven vehicles and
heavy traffic no city or town that
thinks anything of itself will long
: tolerate dirt streets. Steelton and Har
; rieburg are leaders in this respect, but
other places are not far behind, and
| we must keep right on Improving if
we hope to maintain our places.
"BOBS"
THE death of Lord Roberts brings
forth a note of tribute even from
Germany. While General Rob
erts was not so great a soldier as
Kitchener, he was far more popular
and In his way Just as efficient. The
two are so different in type that It Is
difficult to compare them.
In the present war Lord Roberts had
been a power for the English arms,
not only In the splendid service he had
rendered in recruiting and In obtaining
large sums of needed money by private
contribution, but by reason of his con
stant appeal to the government to pre
pare for what he fully believed was
the Intention of Germany to attack
England. These preachments of iye
paredness had their effect, although
not in the desired measure, to such an
extent that Great Britain was able to
throw an army into the field much
earlier than would otherwise have
been the case.
"Bobs'" died as he had lived —a sol
dier In the active service of his country.
! He woa headed straight for the front
' TUESDAY EVENING, 3
when his laat illness overtook him.
This is a younfc man's war. The hard
ships and responsibilities are tremen
dous even for the sturdiest. Lord
Roberts undertook more than his en
feebled constitution would permit. But
his example will doubtless set a new
standard for the men of the United
Kingdom who because of years or
physical defects have regarded them
selves as immune from service.
LIFE IN THE TRENCHES
WITH rain, snow and a wind of
blizzard proportions blowing
over the war zone In Belgium
and France, life on the battle
front must be an awful test of human
endurance. Dash and -courage are re
quired to lead or face a bayonet
charge, but to lie In water to the
knees, with temperature near freezing
and cold food as diet. Is an Infinitely
harder task to perform.
Picture the trench scene If you can
from a four days' description of it
given by a private named Cox, now in
the hospital with a wounded leg:
Then the rain came. In an hour
we were Kitting In puddles of wet
'clay. In three hours the bottoms
of the trenches were covered with
water.
You'd oughta heard us cough at
night. It sounded like a toober
cure. We barked like a dog show.
There was no protection for any
of us. There was no way of get
ting dry. For the four dayß we
lay "in these filthy trenches, soaked
to the skin. Here and there red,
oily streaks on the rain-pitted
water in the trench bottom told of
a wounded man. I held up my
wounded bunkle, shot through the
lungs, for four hours before he
died. If he had fallen forward he
would have drowned in the mud
and water.
Doubtless the enlisted men of both
sides will sit in the freezing: puddles as
long as their officers command. Doubt
less, too, many of them whom bullets
have not touched will never leave these
same trenches. Winter will claim as
many victims, possibly, as the rifle.
But of those who do survive, what?
What marks will such an experience
leave upon the men who are enduring
it? Our own Civil War pension list
is the answer. Hundreds of bent and
tottering veterans of that conflict
would have been straight and sturdy
old men to-day had it not been for just
such hardships as the soldiery of the
German and the allied armies are
undergoing now.
TECHNICAL EDUCATION
THE Harrisburg School Board has
undertaken an important work
in its plans to make the Tech
nical High School equipment
available for boys who work in day
time but desire to study mechanics in
the evening. The rapid growth of the
enrollment of the Technical School is
an indication of the large need it fills
in the community, and it is right that
the school should be made to work as
many hours a day as it can be of ser
vice to the youth of the community.
Not sufficient attention has been
given in America to manual training.
In this whole country, according to
the investigations made by the Com
mission on National Aid to Vocational
Education, there are fewer trade
schools than exist in the now unfor
tunate little German kingdom of Ba
varia, with a population but little
greater than that of New York city.
Until the outbreak of the European
war more workers were being trained
at public expense in the city of Munich
than in all the larger cities of the
United States put together, although
these American cities include a popu
lation of 12,000,000.
In a democratic country the educa
tion of Its citizens Is one of the most
Important functions of the state. A
worker who is not trained to work Is
not educated. Neither Is he educated
if he is trained only to work. The
state alone can give him the broadest
training possible in the given time and
without secriflelng the training for his
job.
From every side comes the Insistent
demand that this education be given.
It comes from the labor unions and
from the manufacturers' associations,
from the social worker, from the un
trained man who wants his son to get
a chance he never had, and from the
untrained woman who wants her
daughter to develop far beyond her
self.
We in Harrisburg are fortunate in
having a model school of the kind
and we owe it to the boys who cannot
remain at study until graduation to
give them its advantages at the only
time they are able to avail themselves
of them, in the evenings.
NO HIGHER TRIBUTE
O better tribute could be paid to
Nthe memory of the late Maurice
C. Eby, former mayor of Har
risburg, than the proposed erec
tion of a memorlul drinking fountain
for horses and dogs.
The beasts of burden had no
stauncher friend than Mavor Eby. For
many years he was connected with
the work of the Society for the Pre
vention of Cruelty to Animals In this
city and by his own personal work he
procured the passage of laws com
pelling owners to be kind and con
siderate of their horses. Ills entire
life was one of kindness to the animal
world.
AS THE LEAVES FALL
NOW that the cold blasts of winter
are beginning to tax the strength
of even the hardiest, scores of
the very aged people of the city
will fall "as the leaves." So It has al
ways been and so It will always be.
Having served their day and genera
tion there comes that "call home" Just
as the foliage of summer Is called back
to the bosom of mother earth after the
long hot days of summer.
Some approach this period of life
with Joy; some with dread. And here
lies the lesson for the youth of the
land, the men and women of middle
age, and even those whose hair Is now
silver.
Those lives which for three score
and ten years have veritably breathed
the "God-life," which have been at
peace w.ith their fellows and them
selves; have brightened and gladdened
the hearts of those about them by
their sweetness, sincerity and purpose
—these are the golden leaves. Those
lives which consistently have been
warp and woof of telflshness; which
have scorned God and man; have made
the world a darker rather than a
brighter place In which to live—these
are the seered and crumpled leaves.
"Whether your "golden age" be rich
and glowing; or whether It be seered
and crumpled—depends upon your
daily living.
I EVENING CHAT I
The Engineers' Society of Pennsyl
vania, which is co-operating with the
State Department of Labor and Indus
try in the Industrial Welfare and Effi
ciency Conference at the Capitol and
which organized the safety exhibition,
possesses a record for doing things
that is gratifying to its members and
to the city as well. The society was
organized less than ten years ago and
had Its first home in the Kreidler
building at Second and Walnut streets,
the first thing in whicli Its members
had a part being encouragement of
municipal Improvement campaigns.
Then it moved to the Gilbert building.
In Market street, and became so large
and influential that it was able through
the stimulus given by several notable
engineers living here to get the Bailey
mansion as its clubhouse. The society
was instrumental in having the first
exhibition of safety and other devices
ever held here, the car barns of the
traction company, then Just completed,
being the site. It aided in bringing
two conventions of engineers of the
State to this city and was behind a
general meeting of technical men here
a few years ago which attracted na
tional attention. Last year It united
to bring about the tlrst welfare and
efficiency conference and this year by
a happy conincldence its president is
also the Commissioner of Labor and
Industry, Dr. John Price Jaclistyi.
Dr. Jackson, by the way, is the son
of a man who was connected with the
Pennsylvania Steel Company. He was
Josiah Jackson, a noted educator and
mathematician. Dr. Jackson went to
school at Kennett Square and grad
uated twenty-five years ago from State
College, where he played football and
also made a record us a student. He
has numerous degrees and is a mem
ber of more learned societies than he
can remember, has written bodies, or
ganized the famous department of
electrical engineering at State College,
turned out some cracker jack students
and did a lot of other things In addi
tion to creating the Department of
Labor and Industry. The Governor let
him organize it the way he thought
best and they say that politics does not
go there.
One of the Capitol Park squirrels
has figured out a visiting place that is
good for a series of meals during the
day. This squirrel wanders far from
the park and has taken to perching on
top of one of the peanut stands In the
central part of the city. He hops up
and sits appealingly and It is mighty
seldom that he does not draw custom
for the peanut man and something to
munch for himself.
The passing of the Lochiel rolling
mill and the prospective sale of its site
and the famous or notorious Lochiel
row, as you may choose to designate
it according to remembrance, calls to
mind that the Lochiel furnace is the
only one of the old-time industries left
in that region. To the south the great
plant of the Elliott-Fisher company
and the electric company's station
have taken the places of the old mills
as industries, but there are a good
many who recall the days when
I-ochiei was a bustling part of the city
and Its fires illumined the skies for
miles around. The rolling mill was
torn away a few years ago, following
the removal of the old store, the
familiar mill office and the old "Hob-
Nail ' and other boarding houses which
were homes of puddlers and iron
workers who were noted through the
state for their skill. Lochiel furnace
dates from 1872 and was operated by
the Lochiel Furnace Company, oft and
on, until the nineties, when it was sold
to the Pennsylvania. Steel Company
under whose ownership it has known
three periods of activity. Whether it
will ever run again is a question.
The Lochiel rolling mills have a his
tory that is of great interest to the stu
dent of the iron trade. The mills were
built originally to roll rails and were
among the first in the country to make
them for the general trade. The Dull
family was prominently identified with
the management for a time. In the
nineties the control passed to the late
, Neal ' a member of a family
widely known in the iron business, and
continued under his ownership until
the fires were drawn for the last time.
Lochiel mills had a large trade and
sold bars for a time to British plants.
Whatever might be said about the
turbulent character of some of the
people who may have lived in Lochiel
row at one time or another, the man
ner In which they aided the victims of
the terrible wreck In May, 1905, liter
ally Riving the clothes off their backs
and the blankets from their beds, won
the commendation of the whole city
and more than one person accustomed
to refinements had occasion to remem
ber the assistance given in those
humble homes and the succor which
was extended was in many instances
never requitted.

RINGMASTERS GET BUSY
Plan to Push a Lot of Legislation
That They Want and to Call
It the People's
Representative John M. Flynn. of
Elk county, the senior Democratic
member of the House, will be the
Democratic nominee for the speaker
ship, If he wants It. The member
ship of the Democratic line-up In the
next House will not have any John
T. Matts, E. Lowry Humes or E. R.
Bensons to disturb it with reorganiz
es' schemes and will probably get
more accomplished. Mr. Flynn has
served since 1905 and has been a good
strong legislator with no time for
frills. It will develop upon him to call
the caucus.
Representative Richard J. Baldwin
claims to be making considerable hay
in his campaign for the speakership
and says that he has strong support
in the country and in the two larggs
counties. Baldwin Is a hard worker
and always optimistic. His friends
say that the fact that Thomas H.
Garvin, the chief clerk, comes from
Delaware, too, will not militate against
him because Garvin is a fixture In the
House and Is needed to run it right.
Up to date the Republicans men
tioned for the honor are:
Allegheny—J. F. Woodward and
A. C. Stein.
Delaware—R. J. Bal'dwin.
Jefferson—H. I. Wilson.
Lackawanna—F. C. Ehrhardt.
McKean —R. P. Habgood.
Philadelphia—W. H. Wilson and
S. J. Gang.
Tioga—G. W. Williams.
The Washington party strength will
consist of one Senator, J. L. Smith,
Crawford-Mercer, and one member,
T. B. H. Brownlee, Washington. The
Socialist strength will be the same as
in 1911 and one more than in 1913,
consisting of James H. Maurer.
A good bit of quiet smiling is going
on in the western part of the State
over the efforts being made to create
the impression that there is going to
be a battle organized at once against
the Penrose leadership. When the
Senator was re-elected the last time
the center of the campaign to unhorse
him was shifted from Philadelphia,
where it was virulent about 1900, to
Scranton. Now it is supposed to be
in Pittsburgh. With Penrose more
strongly entrenched than ever and
elected by direct vote of the people
it does not seem very plausible that
men with whom he has been aligned
would be apt to start anything, and
now, especially.
Western Pennsylvania Democrats
are commencing to snarl at each
other over the appraisership at Pitts
burgh. Secretary Bryan has been
trying to put over George W. Acklln,
one of the faithful ones who did not
get any pie. Some of the Democrats
are boasting of H. C. Staggers, a
Greene county reorganizes while one
wing of the Westmoreland Democ
racy, which is shot to pieces about
as bad as that of any county in the
State is yelling for G. W. Deeds, of
Ligonier.
In spite of the fact that they have
less than half a company of members
the Democratic State ringmasters
committee, which tried to jam
through a lot of legislation last year,
is going up to demand the adoption
of certain bills in the name of the
people. This game, which is planned
to make capital for 1916, will serve
to keep the Democratic machine in
the public eye and to furnish some
of the disorganized reorganizes' news
papers with topics. Just how they are
going to demand the legislation in
the name of the people in view of the
recent vote is hard to see. The Wash
ington party, which has two mem
bers in the whole General Assembly,
will also solemnly introduce some
bills for the purpose ol keeping itself
alive.
Reports that Dr. J. H. Krelder,
Washington party nominee for Con
gress, has been reappointed to a job
in the Auditor General's Department,
are untrue.
The Philadelphia Record to-day'
says: "Close friends of Mr. Palmer de
clared that he was in no sense a seeker
after a Job from President Wilson, and
was particularly disinclined to retire
from politics by entering the District
of Columbia judiciary. On behalf of
Mr. Morris, it was declared that ho
was equally unwilling to resign as
State chairman, and thus desert his
allies in the reorganization movement.
While the Palmer-Morris leadership
only recently provided fresh sorrow
for the Democrats of the State, the
reorganizes plan to retain their grasp
on the party machinery until 1916 at
least, with the intention of controlling
the Pennsylvania delegation to the
next national convention. It is gen
erally expected, however, that they
will at the time face the opposition of
a Democracy interested in party suc
cess Instead of faction triumphs. At
the present time the reorganizers are
well In control of the State committee,
and no serious effort to dislodge either
Palmer or Morris is regarded as
feasible."

Heinrlch von Treltschke has so far
been known to us only at second hand.
The historian-philosopher, whose views
on world politics and the Teutonic mis
sion have gained such wide acceptance
among Germans, has been extensively
quoted by General Bernhardi and
every other writer on the present con
ilict, but no English translations of
his works have- appeared 011 this side
of the Atlantic. As it Is manifestly
unfair-and misleading to Judge Pan-
Germanism and its foremost disciple
from scattering quotations, readers
will welcome the announcement of
Frederick A. Stokes Company that the
cream of Treltschke's important "Lec
tures on Politics" will be published be

GLEASON UNDER FIRE
The New York Times of October
26 printed a remarkable war story
from the pen of Philip Glbbs In which
he refers to "Mr. Gleason, an Amer

• thur H. Gleason, Yale, 1901, author of
NOVEMBER 17, 1914.
"The Spirit of Christmas," "Love,
Home and the Inner Life," and a well
known magazine writer. Close friends
of Mr. Oleason recently heard from his
mother that he had gone to Belgium
with an English hospital corps in the
capacity of stretcher-bearer but
nothing of his adventures around
Ghent and Antwerp, where, according
to Mr. Glbbs, "he has proved himself
to be a man of calm and quiet courage
at a critical moment, always ready to
take great risks in order to bring in a
wounded man." Glbbs accompanied
Gleason on an expedition Into Dlx
mude for wounded while the town was
tumbling about their ears from Ger
