UNCLE SAM AND THE BANKS
UNCLE SAM believes In adver
tising. Possibly we should say
for publicity—for advertising
is ordinarily paid for at space
rates, and Uncle Sam does not con
duct his advertising campaigns that
way. When ho wants to boost some
thing he gets out a neatly prepared
Imitation of typewriting and forwards
It to the newspapers with a request
that it be printed "for the informa
tion of the public." Any other ad
vertiser who put his copy up like that
to the publisher would be laughed out
of the office, but Uncle Sam often "gets
sway with it."
He did this recently in the matter
©f the postal savings banks, with the
result that deposits have been largely
Increased. The only benefit the news
papers got was the lesson taught to
the managers of other banks concern
ing the direct and material benefits
to be derived from a Judicious use of
printers' Ink.
Harrisburg won't have to wait for
the invention of a wireless telephone
and electric light system to become a
"wireless city." We are "on the way"
right now.
TIIE MUMMERS' ASSOCIATION
THE Mummers' Association should
have all the encouragement nec
essary to enable It to give the
kind of parade it plans for New-
Year's Day. The Mummers' Associa
tion can be made a very useful organ
ization in the affairs of the city. If It
■works out successfully the program It
has outlined it will be in position to
extend its activities. If it shows that
It is capable of doing big things in a
big way it should be entrusted with
the task of designing and producing
a historical pageant to be part of the
big public improvement celebration to
be held next summer. Those at the
head of this movement will watch with
keen interest the outcome of the New-
Year's celebration under the direction
of the Mummers' Association.
We imagine the teachers and school
directors of the State will be able to
gather something of interest from the
addresses of Governor-elect Brum
baugh when he speaks to them in this
city on February 4.
A BI'SINESS SESSION
THERE is a manifest disposition
among the Republican leaders ol
the State to organize the ap
proaching Legislature for n
purely business session. Everywhere
the sentiment is expressed that the
session should not be prolonged one
day beyond the actual period necessary
to gtve consideration to the measures
for which the party has been pledged
and the enactment of the usual appro
priation bills.
Of course, there may be some differ
ence of opinion as to what
a short session, but those who know
anything whatever about the operation
of the legislative branch of the State
government will not question for a
minute that it would be a compara
tively easy matter to adjourn not late,
than the middle of March. Usually
the Legislature convenes for a day or
two at the time fixed by the Consti
tution for organization and then takes
a long recess of ten days or two weeks
for the alleged purpose of giving the
presiding «officers of the Senate ami
House sufficient time to make up the
standing committees. This is a sheer
~ waste of time, as has been demon
strated on more than one occasion
when for one reason or another the
committees were not ready after the
recess. Instead of taking the long
recess and wasting at least two weekt
of time, the introduction of bills and
such other matters as could be dis
posed of without the action of com
mittees would save time later and
place the legislative machinery in good
shape for a business session from the
■tart to the finish.
There is no occasion for the long
period usually granted for the selec
tion of committees. It is this waste
of time that causes the turmoil ant»
rush and ill-digested legislation toward
the end. It will be not only the part
of wisdom for the Republican leaders
to agree at the outset that the session
shall not be prolonged beyond the lat
ter part of March, but it would meal,
better work throughout.
J Since the legislator receives a fixed
J salary, which is neither increased nor
'' diminished by the length of the ses-
SATURDAY EVENING,
sion. It would seem to be to the Interest
of all concerned to arrange before the
meeting in January for a prompt,
earnest and consistent legislative pro
gram.
Of course, this would probably be
very distasteful to the political fakir
whose game depends upon the ma
terial upon which he can feed during
a session of the Legislature; but b
business session will appeal to all who
have the real welfare of the Common
wealth at heart. Business has been
nagged at Washington and also In
Pennsylvania to the point of distrac
tion. It is time now for a rest.
It seems to us altogether proper
that the Chief of Tammany Hall should
wed an Indian Princess.
RAILROAD CONDITIONS
WHILE there are many cars up
on the sidings and the rail
road business Is not as good
as the prosperity of the State
would demand, there Is a hopeful tone
In the official statements and the econ
omies of the last year will undoubtedly
make their impression upon the net
earnings.
Harrlsburg is deeply Interested In
everything that Involves the prosperity
of the railroad system which con
tributes so materially to the welfare
of this community. We shall hope
that nothing will Interfere with the
prosecution of the great improvement
undertakings which embrace the new
bridge at Mulberry street across the
Susquehanna river and the much
needed union freight station In South
Second street. These projects are re
lated to the subways In Mulberry street
at Second and Front streets, anil are
part of the original program of rail
road development in that section of
the city.
There Is no doubt that the railroad
officials realize .he importance of pre
paring for the future of this central
distributing point, and it Is probable
that the progress of this work will not
be Impeded In any way by the railroad
dep- sslon. Fortunately, provision
was made for financing this work a
year or two ago and in this respect
Harrisburg is lucky.
A more sane and practical view of
business conditions by the Interstate
Commerce Commission will probably
result in greater activity on the part
of the railroads and activity in this
quarter means activity throughout the
whole business world.
Hash day.
PUSHING THE WORK
BEGINNING next week the Depart
ment of Parks and Playgrounds
will employ a considerable force
In the rough grading of the river
slope in those sections which have not
yet been prepared for the planting
next Spring. Now that the City Coun
cil has agreed to take over thos • strips
owned by individual property owners,
there is nothing In the way of final
park treatment. It is expected that
this work can continue for some weeks
and there Is enough of filling material
now in sight to carry out the plans ap
proved by Warren H. Manning, the
city's landscape architect.
There has been left outside the river
wall at several points masses of stone
and debris which will have to be re
moved by the contractors before their
work is accepted. It Is believed that
some of the more conspicuous ob
structions. as for Instance, the large
concrete sewer outlet off Peffer street,
can more easily be removed on flats
during the slightly higher stage of
water.
FOOD FOR BONFIRES
WOOSTER COLLEGE the other
evening had a bonfire In
which were cremated every
vile picture and nasty piece of litera
ture about the school.
Here we have an example that ought
to be before the eyes of every maga
zine editor In the land. That even our
young boys have become disgusted
with the current flood of sex and
problem rot in printed word and illus
tration inflicted upon us by as un
scrupulous a coterie of writers and
publishers as ever wielded a pen or
issued v .nagazine, is an Indication that
this hectic brand of fiction is doomed.
Much of it is just beyond the border
land of decency. Its licentiousness is
apparent, but veiled sufficiently to let
it pass the postal censor's eyes un
checked. It is written merely to sell.
It serves no good purpose. It caters to
the worst elements in human nature.
It is not even well written. Its proper
use is that to which it was put at
Wooster College. Let us have more
bonfires of the kind.
EXTENDING LIGHTING SYSTEM
THE opinion of experts, quoted by
the Telegraph yesterday in an
article on placing electric wires
underground in Harrisburg, is
that a gTeat step forward in this di
rection can be accomplished by the
city itself gradually extending the
ornamental lighting system that has
met with so much favor in the central
part of town. It is the unanimous
opinion of men who have given
thought to the matter that the present
radius of ornamental lighting should
be enlarged, rather than that the addi
tions be made by the patchwork plan
advocated in some quarters.
This is common sense. Xot only
would the harmony of city lighting
thus be maintained, but the central
district, about the Capitol and in
streets most frequented by the largest
number of people, would receive the
attention it deserves. We owe some
thing to the State, which is doing so
much in the way of public improve
ment. The Capitol Park district should
have our most careful attention. Third
street the length of Capitol Park and
all of the thoroughfares approaching
the park should have the ornamental
system.
Of course, all of this cannot be ac
complished at once, but city council
would do well to set aside a specific
amount each year for the purchase
end erection of ornamental standards
and the lowering of the old, unsightly
[arc light poles.
EVENING CHAT
The shadow of the federal war tax
has fallen across Capitol Hill and peo
ple connected with the various
branches of the State government
which have to do with receiving of
certified papers are boning up on the
requirements of the act so that they
can be sure of what Uncle Sam de
mands after next Wednesday. For
instance, each surety bond that may
be tiled at the Capitol to cover a bid
on a State contract will have to con
tain a fifty cent stamp as well as the
various requirements of the State.
This line will not affect so many pa
pers, but the ten cent tax will be re
quired on everyone of the hundreds of
certificates. This will require stamps
on scores of incorporation and other
like papers handled each day and will
run up the cost to people doing busi
ness, as the State will be required to
charge for the stamp in transacting
business. Papers on which stamps
are required will not be received for
filing at the Capitol on and after Tues
day unlesg. the stamps are affixed and
on papers going out the stamps wilt
be charged with the official fee against
the person getting the papers.
Pennsylvania's National Guardsmen
will have to go through two inspec
tions again this coming winter and the
men connected with the various or
ganizations have commenced to drill
and overlook their equipment in an
ticipation of the ordeals. The first
inspection will be conducted by United
States army officers and will begin
soon after the new year. The object
of this inspection Is to determine
readiness to take the field and has
been dubbed by some of the men "the
war scare'' Inspection. The second in
ispection, which will be conducted by
the regular Inspection officers of the
S»n»« militia will be along the same
lines as heretofore. It is expected to
be very strict In regard to the school
of the soldier, a line upon which in
specting officers have been critical of
late. It Is expected that the new
organizations will be ready for this
inspection.
j John Barrett, the former minister
to Siam, Argentine and Panama, who
was here this week, talked entertain
ingly of Lord Kitchener, whom he
met while In India and of whose party
to inspect frontier forts he was a mem
ber. He remarked that Lord Kitchener
wits immensely popular in India and
the reason for it was his uniform
courtesy. M% Barrett smiled when his
hearers broke in to say that they had
never heard the English general ac
cused of being courteous and said that
he showed the greatest consideration
for the natives, the lower the caste the
more consideration. For this reason
many men fairly worshipped him.
Mr. Barrett also told how he came
to go on an exploring trip in South
America when the government to
which he was accredited and the
State department at Washington had
refused permission. He wired at his
own expense, which was $137, to
Theodore Roosevelt and from the
White House came this answer: "Go
ahead."
The foot and mouth disease has stir
red up quite a number of jokers, who
see in the name a subject for merri
ment and who do not know about the
sickness it causes. The other day a
hungry tramp appeared at a residence
in the central part of the city and
told a story of a long, long walk and
great hunger. At once the joker got
busy and announced that a man "suf
fering from foot and mouth disease"
was at the door. The tramp got chas
ed away and the Joker was told to for
get himself.
Howard M. Hoke, secretary to the
Genera! and the beacon light
of the esperanlsts in this section, says
that the believers in Esperanto In Ger

Every week since the commencement
of the war he haa received a summary
of the official bulletins in the best Es
peranto. They gave the German gov
ernment side, of course, but they serv

the language alive and at the same
time putting out the Kaiser's side of
it.

servation Association a few days ago.

that he is a receptive candidate for

"representatives of the State commit

committee, though Chairman Wescott
announced that he was in favor of its
program. The meeting was unusually
bitter.
—Bull Moose plans for the light at'
the next Presidential election will be
discussed at a national conference ex
pected to be held next month, and
later at a meeting of the State leaders,
aays the Philadelphia Record. The
movement locally is regarded as dead
for the present, though the political
clique now in control Is already plan
ning to grab six minority magistrates
at next Full's election. In 1916 the
party will be a factor of more or less
degree in this State in the Presidential
election, as, under the law, it will
choose delegates to a national conven
tion, the nominee of whlrh nominates
the Presidential electors for his party.
Under these circumstances, tlie Bull
Moose men from this State, at least,
must hold a national convention of
some kind, if the opportunity to run
Progressive Presidential electors in
this State Is to be utilized.
—One of the dojubtful Republican
States rather than Pennsylvania will,
in the opinion of Senator Penrose,
furnish the next Presidential candi
date. Denying the report that he had
committed himself to the support oi
Ambassador Myron T. Herrick, of
Ohio, for President, or that the bee
was buzzing about his own ears, Sen
ator Penrose suggested that it was rare
that a candidate brought out two years
before election became the party nom
inee. He added: "There is every in
dication that two years hence the Re
publican party will again come into
control of the nation. It is perhaps
fortunate that the Democrats still re
tain actual control of Congress, for
they cannot escape full responsibility
when the electors two years hence
make their choice. Third, party side
shows by that time will completely dis
appear and I have no doubt there will
be ample material for selection by
Republicans of a Presidential candi"-
date."

YPREB. THE HARASSED
The Belgian town of Ypres (Flem

and Germans have fought so hotly, is
■ In the province of West Flanders," of
which It was formerly considered tho
( capital. It has a population of more
i than 17,000. "It is situated,'' sa>H tho
i Encyclopaedia Britannica, "thirty-fivi;
! miles south of Ostend and twelve miles
I west of Courtrai, on the Yperlea, a
'small river flowing into the Yser, both
|of which have been canalized. In the
fourteenth century it ranked with
Bruges and Ghent, and its population
in its prime reached 200,000. It is
remarkable chiefly for its fine Hallcs
or cloth market, wjth a facade of over
150 yards in length. The main build
ing was begun in 1201 and completed
in 1304. The cathedral of St. Martin
dates from the thirteenth century,
with a tower of the fifteenth century.
Janson, Bishop of Ypres and the
founder of the Jansenist school, is
buried in the cathedral. The Butch
ers' Hall Is also of interest and dates
from the fifteenth century. Although
Ypres is unlikely to regain the im
portance It possessed when Its •red
coated" contingent turned the dav in
the great battle of Coutral (1302), It
has an Important linen and lace trade
and a great butter market. The Bol
glan cavalry training school Is estab

urged us to "stand up" for the State.
Let us see why:
For growing' more corn than any
other of the twenty Eastern and South
ern States.
For supplying more bread than any
other of these twenty States.
For giving the nation half its supply
«of coal.
For turning out more steel than any
other State.
For the fact that it is the only great
Commonwealth without a debt.
For having nearly double the popu
lation and live times the known wealth
of the entire country when Jefferson
balked on a Thanksgiving.
For the best progress In good road
making which this State has ever en-
Joyed.
For the gradual elimination of the
barbaric tollgate.

New Notes to Customers
We believe in giving our customers money that's
tit to handle.
In fact this feature of our banking service has
won for us popular recognition as the bank that
always has a supply of new one and five dollar
notes, h-ven in pay rolls we do not give torn
bills.
This service involves extra work and expense to
sort out all the old, torn notes and express them
to Washington, but*the satisfaction it gives our
customers justifies it.

"It will contain." General H. S.
I Muldekoper told me yesterday, "the
I namo of every soldier from Pennsylva
i nia who fought in the battle of Get
tysburg."
I It is true that volumes have been
j issued made up of lists of Union gol
i diers in the war, but this Pennsylvania
I book is to have something more than
i the name of every Pennsylvanlan who
j carried a musket or saber or manned-a
, gun. There will be a great number of
| illustrations and other matter, making
I it for all time the auihorltative book
lon the part which this plaved in
; the war's greatest single battle.
I Since the tight occurred on Penn-
I sylvanla soil and the Union army was
led by a Phlladelphlan, and the most
, distinguished soldier who was killed
there—Reynolds—was a Lancaster man,
this State has a real right to own such
a book.
