RED CROSS RELIEF WORK
THE Red Cross Division of the
Harrisburg Emergency Home
and Foreign Belief Committee
makes an eloquent appeal for
assistance. The members set forth the
needs of the situation as urgent in the
extreme and quite as worthy of atten
tion as any of the oilier branches of
the relief work that has been necessi
tated by the war in Europe.
"Perhaps the destruction of life and
property has been so tremendous that
it has appeared to some of us at a
distance of little use to try to give
relief," says the local committee's ap
peal. "It's not only very needful, but
a bounden duty for everybody to do
his utmost, no matter how trivial that
utmost may seem, to ameliorate the
suffering of the fallen brother." Then
the committee tells how much even
the very smallest contribution will
purchase, among the Items being
these: One cent will buy iodine to dis
infect a wound, one cent will pay for
cotton to dress the wound, five cents
will buy the bandages, eight cents will
pay for the temporary splint, ten cents
will provide chloroform for the op
eration and twenty-five cents may save!
a litnb or life.
Just think what that means! A small j
donation may result eventually in the
restoration of a father to his chil
dren or of a son to his mother; and
it is not only the wounded soldier of
whom one should think in helping the
Red Cross finance its relief work
abroad, but the hundreds of thousands
of helpless noncombatants, particular
ly the dependents of the men at the
front, whose acres are laid waste,
whose domestic animals are command
eered or confiscated for food, and
whose homes are burned or sacked.
Contributions may be designated by
the donors, if they so desire, for the
aid of any special country, and will lie
used for the country designated; but
assistance will be given to all, in the
true spirit of the Red Cross repre
sented by its motto, "Neutrality—Hu
manity."
We have given so much thought to
the helpless and the homeless that
perhaps we have neglected to some
extent the Red Cross and its work.
Wc cannot lay down the duties already
assumed toward the women and chil
dren driven from their homes by tho
encroachment of war, but we must
take on this new burden and bear it as
best we may.
A TRAGEDY OF TEMPER
IN the suicide of an Allison Hill man
and the shooting of his wife Sunday
afternoon lies ft. lesson in temper
control for every man.
The mental processes which would
prompt a man to shoot his wife during
a quarrel over a pet poodle dog are
hard to understand. But one thing is
sure—that man had never learned
self-control. His master was his tem
per. He was accustomed to flying into
a rage at every provocation. And the
rage channels of his brain finally be
came so deep that nothing but mur
der could satisfy ills last outbreak.
The fact that he had been separated
from a faithful, hard-working wife in
dicates that he was given to losing his
temper. Divorce court testimony
month in and month out proves that
family quarrels are nearly always the
forerunner of separations.
Every time a. man allows himself
to fly Into a fit of temper he is lessen
ing his self-control. He is making
himself a weakling and scientists say
he is shortening his life.
SAUCE FOR THE GOOSE
GENERAL CARRANZA teiis the
State Department that "any use
of force by the American troops
at Naco, Ariz., in their efforts to
keep Mexican bullets from American
soil will be considered an act of hos
tility." But General Carranza, while
regretting the killing of Americans by
Mexican shots flred from the other
side of the border, makes no promise
that the practice will he stopped.
Neither does he wish this careless,
shooting to be regarded a's a hostile'
demonstration on the part of the
Mexicans.
Evidently Carranza has not learned
that "what is sauce for the goose is
sauce for the gander."
Of course a volley or two from the
United States troops might start all
manner of complications, but the Mex
icans could hardly object if a few bul
lets fell among them quite by accident,
as it were. We recommend that Gen
era! Bliss set up a few targets near
the border and start practicing on
TUESDAY EVENING,
them with his machine guns. If. per
chance. a few score of the murderous
souls on the other side happened to
get In the way of stray shots, why we
could follow the custom of Carrailia
when he kills un American and extend
our profuse apologies.
"T\\V> Americans killed in Mexico;
Bryan has ordered an investigation."
Where have we heard those words be
fore?
GREAT DISTRIBUTION CENTER
ALMOST every week brings an
nouncement of some big firm
locating a distribution agency
in Harrisburg. Last week it
was the Loose-Wiles Biscuit Company,
one of the largest Jn the country, that
decided upon this city for its whole
sale and warehouse branch in I#'-
East. This week the Hercules Motor
Car Company selects Harrisburg for a
factory branch with warehouse and
reshipplng facilities for the Western
Pennsylvania field.
The Chamber of Commerce, which
was instrumental in bringing these
concerns to Harrisburg. in its De
cember Bulletin mukes plain why so
many large firms are using this as a
distributing point. The Bulletin says
that "in the .Pennsylvania transfer
freight station Harrisburg has; an as
set that relatively few people know
much about or appreciate." That is,
few who are not acquainted with the
transportation problems of tho East.
Shipping agents know that in Har
risburg is located tills great "heart"
through which the arteries of traffic
are fed, and their choice of this place
for rcshipping and warehouse pur
poses has followed logically. Says the
Bulletin:
The Pennsylvania transfer sta
tion is one of tile reasons why Har
risburg is throbbing as "The Heart
of Distribution." No other city can
so easily and cheaply reach Penn
sylvania and other remote points
as Harrisburg. National distribu
tors recognize it. their number be
ing steadily Increased, Local capi
tal is realizing more and more that
fortunes can lie made in distribut
ing merchandise from Harrisburg.
Any man desiring to enter the
wholesale or distributing business
need seek no farther than Harris
burg. Within a limited radius, a
buying population equal in purchas
ing power to many States in other
sections can be reached with a
freight service that no other city
lias available for reaching the same
territory. The field is open and
money is to be made In it by those
who take advantage of it.
When to our present facilities are
added those of the new million dollar
Pennsylvania freight station now in
course of construction, 110 city any
where will be able to compete with
us in the bundling, reshipplng or
prompt transportation of freight.
Have a heart, Mr. Weatherman, have
a heart! We admit you know what
you're talking about when you fore
cast a cold wave. But don't pile It on.
TIIE DECIDING FACTOR
THE French announce that
they have 3,000,000 more men In
the training camps who have
never been under fire. These are
being held back until they are thor
oughly fit. They are being drilled and
hardened. The English have an army
of another million in the process of
being welded Into an effective military
machine. These troops will be able to
take the field very shortly. Some of
them are already on their way to or
are In France.
These two great forces will be the
deciding factors in the struggle now
being waged In Flanders.
According to all indications the
Germans are on the defensive. Appar
ently they have spent their force.
Their attacks have failed almost en
tirely since the point of their flying
wedge started to backtrack from the
outskirts of Paris. At every point they
have been driven back. What the
allies need now is a fresh army—over
whelming numbers, in other words—
and these will be provided by the
great reserve forces of England and
France, if Russia can keep a sufficient
number of German army corps busy in
the east.
But the Kaiser's forces are not
beaten—far from it. They are making
a losing fight, but making it gamely
and only the force of superior num
bers will finally defeat them.
Judging from the Casualty reports
from Eurone these must be busy days
along the Biver Styx.
"ECONOMY"
EVERY day brings fresh evidence
of an attempt in one way or an
other on the part of the Demo
cratic administration nt Wash
ington to "square itself" with public
opinion. Yesterday the ' legislative,
executive and judicial appropriation
bill was reported to the House after
the committee on appropriations had
lopped nearly $2,000,000 off the esti
mates of the department heads.
The Democrats cite this as "econ
omy." They are anxious to impress
the voters with the idea that money
is to be saved this year by the party
in power. They realize that their
stamp act is unpopular and that the
President and his friends are being
blamed for extravagant expenditures
at a time when every appropriation
should have been pared to the quick.
Therefore the present cry of "econ
omy."
But while the appropriations com
mittee makes much noise over its
$2,000,000 reduction of the estimates
submitted, it is discreetly silent as to
totals. This is because the bill sub
mitted yesterday, which appropriates
a total of $38,744,753, shows an in
crease of $1,128,843 over last year's
measure.
The Democrats are practicing that
rare sort of economy known as burn
ing the candle at both ends. AVith a
steadily decreasing national revenue
, they are increasing their expenditures.
Perhaps their idea is to enact another
"war tax," based on the trouble in
Mexico or Haiti. Under the circum
stances the cry of economy Is about as
appropriate as that of tho pickpocket
in tho crowd who cries "thief, thief,"
thereby hoping to attract attention
from himself.
Walter Johnson nays he Is "out for
the money." This striken us as a
strange admission. We thought base
ball players and magnates always
thought onlv of the "good of the game."
Johnson's honesty Is almost painful.
i EVENING CHAT I
Dr. Martin O. Brumbaugh will he.
n "majority" Go\ernor when he as
sumes office about a month from now.
The official returns llled at the Capitol
show that he received more votes than
all of his opponents combined and he
will not he referred to as have been
certain Presidents and Governors as
officials elected by a minority. The
plurality of Dr. Brumbaugh over Vance
C.MqCormick was 137,819 and the ma
jority over the whole six candidates
against him was by a singular circum
stance just half of the plurality. The
total vote cast for Governor was con
siderably larger than that cast at any
other gubernatorial election in years,
amounting to 1,112,207. Of this total
Dr. Brumbaugh got 590,701. The re
sults of the election have been rather
hard to obtain, as there has been an
unusual number of errors turned up in
the reports of various counties, some
of them of the inexcusable variety.
The State will have to reprint Its offi
i tia! statement of the vote as the result
of some of them.
Another Interesting reference to ai
man much in public life is contributed
by William Perrine in the Philadelphia
Bulletin-. It is about Senator Penrose,
whom, it will be recalled, predicted
while in this city last winter that he'
would win by hundreds of thousands. |
This is what Mr. Perrine writes: "On
a quiet anil rainy Sunday evening last
Spring I casually met Senator Penrose
in the lobby of the Union League. He
bad just come in from a journey to
some inland part of the State while
carrying on his canvass against Dlin
mlck for the Republican nomination
at the primary election in May. What
he said in response to a question con
cerning the general outlook in politics
is now not unworthy of reproduction
as an instance of a forecast that has
been pretty closely verified. 'I want
to say,' he said, 'that I have every
reason for believing that I will be
nominated. I also am entirely confi
dent that if 1 am nominated, 1 can
be elected.' When he was pressed for
the reasons on which ho based his
judgment, he went on to say that they
were national, as well as local, in their
character. 'I think that you will lind
next Fall,' he explained, "that this Is
going to be a great Republican year.
There will be an end to the Progress-i
ive party not only In our State, but
elsewhere. You are likely to see a
revulsion all over the country on ac
count of the tariff and the disaffection
of businessmen over tlie meddling in
Washington with their affairs, and In
Pennsylvania there will be enough
workingmen out of employment to
n ake the change even if there wore
no other causes of discontent. Don't
lie surprised next November if Uncle
Joe and,' he added with a facetious
grin, 'all the rest of the bad men of
1912 shall float back, or if there should
be a Republican House of Bepresenta
tives once more.' This was said about
seven months ago, with all the out
ward form of the wholly easy assur
ance that a man might feel If he had
been examining next year's almanac
for the exact time of the sunrises and
|the tides; and the facts to-day are cer-
Itainly in accord, substantially or for
the most part, with the forecast,
whether Penrose made it instinctively
or conjecturally, or as a matter of
reasoning from causes to effects. It is
curious now—when it is recalled that
at this time a year ago, and, in fact,
through most of the early part of this
year, the prevailing feeling even
among Penrose's friends was that It
j was highly doubtful whether he could
Ibe elected —that he should be the
j most conspicuously successful of all
the candidates for the United States
Senate."
A. E. Buchanan, division passenger
agent, of the Pennsylvania Railroad,
with headquarters in Harrisburg, is
responsible for the following tongue
twister, which he was passing out in
typewritten copies to friends yester
day:
Sister Susie's sewing shirts for soldiers.
Such skill at sewing shirts our sly
young sister Susie shows,
Some soldiers send epistles,
Say they'd sooner sleep on thistles
Than the saucy, soft, short shirts for
soldiers sister Susie sews.
One of the veteran conductors on
the Steelton lines of the Harrisburg
Railways Company has readily solved
the problem of "cold feet." During
the severe weather of the last, couple
of days the conductor put his Inven
tion into effect and the result, attracted
the attention of regular passengers.
His plan for keeping his feet warm
was very simple: He got a piece of
carpet, placed it over the car radiator
until it became heated; then he took
the bit of warm carpet to the vesti
bule of the car, made a little pocket
for his feet to stand in. When the
carpet grew cold at the end of a trip,
he 1 ung it over the radiator awhile,
repi itlng the performance whenever
necessary.

they have been given with such

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
SPEHKERSHIP IS
THE GOAL OF M
Declarations That It Should Come
From the Country Attract At
tention of Candidates
WILSON ENTERS THE FIELD
Baldwin's Friends Working Hard
For Him; Habgood Will Have
Headquarters Here
Declarations by Republican leaders
in Philadelphia that the speakership
of the next House should come from
the "country" have had the effect of
stirring up tremendous activity among
the partisans of various candidates and
at the Capitol where each aspirant has
| friends there is much discussion and
| preparation for the gathering ot' the
lawmakers. legislators coming to the
city to look after their seats and board.
( ing places have been eagerly question
led as to whom they favor.
—Thus far friends of Richard J.
Baldwin, of Delaware county, have
been the most active and are well sat
isfied with the prospects of his can
vass. They predicted to-day that he
would be found to be the most popular
when he opened headquarters on New
Year's day. ' Robert P. Habgood, of
McKean county, will establish his
headquarters about the same time and
as lie has strong backing among .pub
lishers throughout the State he will
be a formidable candidate.
—Henry I. Wilson, of Jefferson
county, member in 1899 and 1911, and
Journal derk of the Senato in 1907,
announced his candidacy for speaker
here last night. He said: "1 am a
candidate subject to the Republican
caucus. 1, have been about the State
considerably and feel encouraged at
the interest taken in my canvass. The
'speakership should come from the In
terior and I have determined to ask
my friends to support me." Mr. Wil
son served as speaker several times
during 1911 and was an active mem
ber on the tloor.
—The boom of Representative
Charles A. Ambler, of is
to be brought to town within a few
(lays and a headquarters will be locat
ed for him. William 11. Wilson, Phil
adelphia; Fred C. Ehrhardt. Laeka
wanna, and A. C. Stein, Pittsburgh,
talked of for speaker, have not yet
announced their candidacies.
"Jlr. Wilson is a good man; he was
given the chair frequently when the
late John F. Cox was speaker and he
presided with credit," remarked Sena
tor Penrose, in commenting upon the
Wilson boom at Philadelphia. In re
ply to a query as to whether (he proxi
mity of Delaware and Philadelphia
counties would not act as a handicap
on Representative Baldwin, Senator
Penrose replied: "No, I don't think
so. The thing cannot be run with a
yard stick. I believe the next speak
er will come from a county outside of
Philadelphia and Allegheny, but It
does not matter how close to these
cities that county uftiy be."
—The Philadelphia Ledger says re
garding yesterday's conference on leg
islation at Philadelphia: "Hut while
Philadelphia occupied a leading po
sition in the conference because of
the attention given to port develop
ment and also to Director Taylor's
comprehensive plans for modern and
high-speed subway and elevated tran
sit. Pennsylvania, the 'Greater Penn
sylvania,' also was fully considered.
This may be appreciated from the fact
that it was the consensus of opinion
of those in the conference that 'ninety
nine per cent.' of Governor-elect's leg
islative program would in all proba
bility, be enacted into law. Dr. Brum
baugh's program comprehending the
State at large, includes such social
measures as child labor and work
man's compensation laws. The 'one
per cent.' which the leaders feel that
the Doctor may not. win. was taken to
refer specifically to local option. The
Doctor is for local option; the Organi
zation Is not.
• —The reappointment of Secretary
of the • mmonwealth Robert McAfee
is expected, especially as the Allegheny
county legislators asked for it at a
meeting and influential friends ail over
the State are urging his retention in
the office he has filled since the death
of Frank M. Fuller. Mr. McAfee is
one of the best known men in the
State and second to none in political
sagacity. ' ,
—The decision of prominent Repub
lican loaders in Philadelphia yesterday
not to make any changes in the Phil
adelphia city government and to re
tain the present bi-cameral council
system is expected to be followed by
decisions not to make sweeping
changes in either the second or third
class city laws. In a short time Pitts
burgh and Scranton leaders will get
together and determine upon legisla
tion affecting their class and it is pre
dicted that there will be little do
ing. *
—The legislative committee of the
city solicitors of the third class cities
are scheduled to meet here on Decem
ber SO to discuss proposed bills and
it is expected that there will be a pro
position advanced to increase the term
of councilmen and to provide for po
lice magistrates. This committee met
here some time ago and named sub
committees to draft bills.
—Figures giving details of the vote
U-ast at the recent election for State
'officers, for candidates for the judi
ciary, Congress and legislature are to
be issued by the State In the form of
a pamphlet ill a few days. It will
! present the revised figures of the re
; turns and clear up the doubts which
i have been caused by the mistakes in
I the returns in several counties. The ]
complete figures will be issued in a
week.
—The question of congressional re
apportionment is to be taken up with
in a few weeks by Republican lead
iers throughout the State and it is the
'plan to get together when the legisla
ture meets to discuss the sentiment
ascertained in the various districts.

MR. HUSTLER!
Do YOU Want to Make More Money?
Europe ia now crying for American foodstuffs and Amsrlc®
can hardly supply her own demands.
Everybody knows that, a big boom has Just started 1n the
Cattle and Hog Raising Business In this Country. Thinking
people all over the United States see in present conditions that
livestock raisers have the GREATEST MONEY-MAKING .
OPPORTUNITY IN THE HISTORY OP THE NATION,
and meat prices keep on soaring.
A group of business men. Including Western bankera and
Eastern brokers, have recently formed a large Company and
have purchaaed over 37,000 acres of fine land in the famous cat
tle and hog raising State of Missouri, within sixty miles of the
great St. Louis livestock market.
This new $2,000,000 corporation plans to RAISE CATTLE
AND HOGS ON A LARGE SCALE, and additional money is now
being raised by disposing of some of the Company's shares to
