A QUESTION OF CTjOTH
GOVERNOR BRUMBAUGH let it
be known yesterday that in
gpite of the popular attention
attracted to his pronounce
ments in favor of a county local op
tion law, a recasting of the highway
policy of the Commonwealth, tho en
actment of workmen's compensation
and other subjects discussed in his ad
dress, that he is not for an instant un
aware of the fact that the revenues of
Pennsylvania will bs less than they
were in tho last legislative appropri
ation period. He served notice that
lie did not propose to hear the whole
burden of apportioning the finances
when ho said that if the dsire was for
a garment that required more cloth
Jhan is in sight, more material must
■be secured.
It Is the intention of the Governor
to make an inquiry into the prospec
tive Income and to go carefully over
the estimates submitted to the Gov
ernor who has just retired by the fiscal
officers of the Commonwealth and
then to let the legislators know just
what is in sight. It is.apparent that
>lO does not intend to stand for thej
Ireatment John K. Tenor and Edwin
S. Stuart received at the hands of
legislatures which* did not pay much
attention to tlio cash in sight.
Tho apportionment of the revenues
of the State where they will do the
greatest good to the greatest number
ds an appalling task, but it is evident
that Dr. Brumbaugh intends to ap
proach it with the same care that he
has taken in considering his other
policies. This Is an administration
during which the fundamentals will
he considered first.
I-.VXDIS AND BASEBAIX
TRUIA" baseball as a national In
stitution ranks among the na
tion's greatest. Not only do we
have the Governor of a great
State like Pennsylvania retiring from
its executive chair to become the pres
ident of a "big league" at a princely
salary, but the same court judge that
earned his reputation by fining the
biggest trust in the world $29,000,000
is now to add a new feather to his
cap by trying the suit brought by the
Federal League against organized
baseball. Thus, does the national game
prove its rank among the big things
of the country.
Judge Keneshaw Mountain Landis
is not a foreigner to the sport
ing fraternity. It was he who
arraigned Jack Johnson on the white
slave indictment in Chicago, and he
has had more to do with antitrust
trials than any other federal judge.
He has had a picturesque career. He
.lumped into the limelight when he
lined Standard Oil for rebating. In
the history of jurisprudence this was
Ihe largest line ever imposed by a
court. Like most any other American
lad. Judge Landis has played baseball,
but not much of it. He was born in
Butler county, Ohio, and his father
thought he was out out for a farmer.
He was t'ond of the mountains—that
shows how he got his middle name.
He abandoned the farm when he was
about eighteen and carried a route for
ii small weekly newspaper in Logans
7)ort, Ind.
Then he began to study. Law did
not tirst attract him. He got into it
in a round-about way. He took a job
as an official court stenographer in an
Indiana circuit court; then his taste for
Blackstone, Kent and Marshall de-1
veloped. Secretary of State Gresbam,
under President Garfield, took a liking
to young I .and is and made him his
secretary in When Sec
retary Gresham died Landis went back
to Chicago, where he practiced law un
til President Roosevelt appointed him
lo tho place on the bench which he
now occupies.
Sine ) then he has won renown as a
"trust buster." Having done what he
did to Jack Johnson and Standard Oil,
it is interesting to speculate on his de
cision In the baseball trust case.
THE HEAJ7TH REPORT
FOLLOWING right on the heels of
Governor Brumbaugh's recom
mendation that housing condi
tions in Pennsylvania be investi
gated and improved, comes Dr. Ttau
nlfk, Harrlftburg'n health officer, with
iilllciu! condemnation of housing in
certain districts of this oily. Evident
ly the Governor observed on a State
wide scale during' his campaigning
what l>r. Raunlck has noted in the
more limited radius of his home town.
* Both do well in calling attention oc.
TFTTTR3D AT EVENTNX3,
the people and the authorities to the
existing evils, which should be cor
rected as promptly as possible. The
problem is big, but it is as important
as it is big and it must bo met.
The whole report of the health
board la worthy of study by council
men and the people at large. It shows
close attention to duty and keen
knowledge of the needs of the city
along the linos of health and sanita
tion. Sufficient copies of the more
important sections at least should be,
printed to mak» general circulation
possible.
WHERE TO GO FOR ADVICE
THE new Governor of Colorado is
something of a philosopher. In
telling the reporters how he ar
rived at his present proud sta
tion in life he laid much stress on the
aid his wife had been to him and ob
served that "failures come most fre
quently to men who do not tell their
business to their wives."
There is a lot to the thought that
does not appear on the surface. For
instance, the average man who wil
fully declines to take his wife into
j his confidence either does not have
a helpful wife or he has something
unworthy to hide from her. In these
days It is only the man whose charac
ter and activities will stand the
searching raya of publicity that gets
far either in private business or pub
lic life./ The longer he practices his
deceptions successfully the longer and
the harder his fall when he is found
out. So it is tho man who tells his
wife what he is about that is most
likely to succeed, no matter what his
undertaking, for he will not lay bare
his life to her unless It Is clean and
his intentions worthy.
A wife's advice has this to recom
mend it—that it is unselfish, kindly
and sincere. Sometimes it is given
without full understanding, but often
also It is that of a mind keener than
the husband's own. Some bigger men
than the Governor of Colorado have
owed their successes to their wives
and more men might profit by follow
ing the example.
NOT POSSIBLE HERE
SUCH a fracas as occurred at
Roosevelt, X. J., a day or two ago
when sheriffs fired upon a crowd
of striking employes of a chemi
cal company, killing sixteen and
badly wounding six, scarcely would
have been possible in Pennsylvania.
By special permission of the au
thorities the strikers had sent a com
mittee through a train supposed to
have aboard a number of men coming
to take their places. None such were
f-und and the strikers cheered. The
deputies, a lot of reckless personages
gathered up at random, mistook the
racket for a. riot and cut loose volley
after volley without investigation.
In Pennsylvania the eyes of a de
tail of steady-nerved, impartial State
police would have been on both de
puties and strikers and the shooting
would have been prevented. The
State police know neither striker nor
strike-breaker, employer nor employe.
[Their duty is to preserve order, and
they generally manage to do it. Had
New Jersey a State constabulary some
sixteen innocent men would not have
been shot by a pack of ruffians posing
as officers.
OSCAR IS RIGHT
< <1 F lam ® n> udgG of P u blic opin-
I ion the last thing the people
* want is an extra session of Con
gress," said Democratic House
leader Underwood, yesterday.
Which we submit Is a self-evident
proposition, the observance of vhlch,
however, we will admit scarcely was
to have been expected from the lips
of one who has been doing nothing
much since March 4, 1913, but keep
ing Congress in session. That others
in Congress have become aware at
that the nation's one desire with
respect to its lawmakers is to have
them go home and give the people a
rest, was shown by the fact that both
sides of the House loudly applauded
Mr. Underwood's remarks.
Yet the majority leader threatened,
unless there is better attendance at
this session, there will be an extra
session. That being the case, for
goodness sake, men, take your cots
along to the House chamber with you
if you must, have your ineals served on
your desks and change collars during
speech-making by the opposing side,
but don't miss a roll-call. Don't take
a single chance. The situation is the
gravest you have faced since '6l.
Cherk up, go to it and then go home.
Oscar is right, this time, right as the
moral code.
G EORGE FROTin XG HAM
THE death of George Frothing,
liam at Burlington, Vt., Tues
day night will recall to men
and women of middle ago and
some of less mature years, pleasant
I memories of the time when Frotliing
ham was one of the prominent figures
of the American stage and a member
of the famous old Bostonians. Froth-
I ingham created the role of "Friar
I Tuck" in the comic opera of "Robin
Hood" and during his lifetime sang
and played the role of the jolly
"Friar" more than 6,000 times, it is
said. Few, if any, of this noted com
pany of singers and actors, who did
so much for the American operatic
stage, remain alive. They saw comic
opera in the United States at its best.
Those who remember with affection
and tender regard their performances
cherish memories the like of which
theatergoers of the present day may
well envy. There Is nothing now be
ing produced that approaches, for in
stance, Frothlnghain and his. "Friar,"
"RoWn Hood" as a whole, nor any
of the goodly company of Operas of
which it was one.
It Is a happy thought that Frothing
ham had the pleasuro of appearing
for the last time in the part he loved
so well only the night before he died,
but it is to be regretted that he could
not have lived to perpetuate his art
to moving pioturee, as he had planned
fo do wtNj tb« coming of Spring. j
i EVENING CHAT I
No two people appear to have the
•ame idea about the number of vis
itors to the oity on Inauguration day,
but all seem to agree that it waß one of
the greatest crowds gathered for a
similar ceremony In years. Estimates
run anywhere from 20,000 to 40,000
people and you can take your choice,
because the railroads, trolley cars, au
tomobiles and carriages that brought
thrones will never get together on the
figures. One thing Is certain and that
is that the inaugural ceremony drew
about the stand at Third and State
streets a greater mass of people than
have assembled since the day Theo
dore Roosevelt dedicated tho Capitol,
and some think that the folks who
swarmed to the vicinity when the new
Governor was making his address was
larger than on the dedicatory day in
1900. It was a notable fact that Dr.
Brumbaugh attracted hundreds from
houses and sidewalks in the neighbor
hood when he began to speak and
thero were swarms of people who
came in late in the morning who made
a bee-line for the place of the cere
monies and arrived in time to hear
the lively parts of the speech. And it
might be remarked in passing that
the new Governor certainly had the
crowd with him. All along the line of
the parade there were thousands of
people, many of them townsfolk, of
course, but with many, many visitors,
"he idea of the inaugural committee
In placing the stand where It was
erected was splendid and was appre
ciated by thousands who got within
sight of the events and within hearing
distance without having to cluster
about tho Capitol or stand on the ter
races and lawns of the Capitol Park.
Everyone remembers the discomforts
of the last five inaugurations and it is
to be hoped that Third and State will
be selected for the next time and that
by 1919 there will be a new and a
handsomer formal entrance to the
State s park at that point.
General Edward DeV. Moirell, the
grand marshal of the parade, is not
unknown to many Harrisburgers, bnt
he has many more admirers now than
before the well-handled parade. The
general carried out his part in a man
ner befitting the occasion not only in
the parade but in taking a residence
for his headquarters and bringing of
his personal establishment to the city,
lie gave dignity to the post of honor
which he held and Governor Brum
baugh seems to have made a popular
choice.
The Telegraph had the honor of
publishing the first picture of Gov
ernor Martin G. Brumbaugh. The
photograph from which was made tht
three-column etching that appeared in
the last editions of the Telegraph of
Tuesday was made a second after Chief
Justice J. Hay Brown had read the
oath of office, to which the Governor
affirmed. The exposure for tho picture
was made by a Telegraph staff pho
tographer, Robert P. Gorman, mounted
on a tall ladder in front of the in
augural stand, ajid the plate was
rushed to the darkroom and thence,
after a wet print had been made, to
the engraving department of the news
paper. By 2.30 the etching was fin
ished and a few minutes later the page
was on the press and papers by the
thousands were being sold to inaugu
ration visitors who were eager to get
copies of the picture to take home as
souvenirs. So excellent was the repro
duction that figures in the background
could be easily distinguished and
recognized.
1 lie inauguration of Governor Brum
»aU live in moving pictures and
it will not be long before the new
Governor will be able to witness the
spectacle the standpoint of the
man in the audience, it he so desires.
At least two sets of films were exposed,
but until they have been developed
nobody will know what success the
photographer had. Scenes along the
route of parade wero snapped, as well
as the reviewing stands, sections of the
crowds and the taking of the oatli.
It is said that one set will be sent to
the Pan-American Exposition in Sun
f J/ 1 ." 0 ' B*'o 8 *' 0 to be made a part of the ex
hi bit of the State of Pennnslvanla,
along with the films of the flat? trans
fer ceremonies last summer, which
are already in the. hands of the ex
position commission.

street < ar this morning, "Spring is not
so very far away. 1 know because I
found in my mail this morning these
three seed catalogs," and he dis
played them for the pleasure of his
fellow-suburbanites, who grew inter
ested at once and asked to "look 'em
over. From now until well into the
summer poultry fanciers and garden
enthusiasts will have it out with one
another morning and evening on the
suburban cars. "It's like a. continuous
lecture on agricultural subjects," said
one observer this morning. "I wouldn't
miss that daily trip for anything. I
get more hints on chickens and garden
truck from my fellow-passengers than
out of the magazines. And," he con.
eluded, I also hear more lies about
egg and vegetable crops than anv
where else.

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
NEW GOVERNOR IS
WORKING ON PLANS
!
Intends to Have Them Ready For
I Incorporation Into Bills Within
the Next Month
NO APOLOGIES TO MAKE
Dr. Brumbaugh Says That He Is
Not Thinking of Washington
Trains Nowadays
Governor Martin O. Brumbaugh is
going to follow his own inaugural pre
cepts in regard to expediting legisla
tive work and no time will be lost in
drafting the hills to carry his ideas in
to effect, local option included. The
Governor is having studies made of
the principles underlying the big pro
positions which he set forth in his ad
dress on Tuesday and they will be
embodied in bills which will be in the
hands of legislative committees within
a month. The drafts of some of the
bills are said to have been made and
the Governor will be ready next week.
In all probability, to talk over matters
with the Joint committee to carry out
platform bills.
—Speaking to newspapermen for
the first time since his inauguration
yesterday afternoon the new Governor
said that he was giving more atten
tion to his legislative plans than to
appointments and criticisms or praises
of what he had done in that line and
that he had not taken up the matter
of more appointments or those made
by his predecessors. He said that he
was aware of constitutional rights of
the Senate and the Governor and that
he had not read the address of Lieu
tenant-Governor Frank 11. McClain.
The suggestion that he might find cus
|toms in regard to addresses at Wash
ington whicli would be different from
Harrisburg he met by saying: "Just
now I am not thinking of taking any
train out of Pennsylvania."
—The new Governor was much In
terested in the revenues to be appro
priated and said that he would make
a study of the prospective income for
the next two years and would make
an effort to verify statements made
about the difference that may exist
between those of the next two years
and the preceding biennial period.
"We must cut the garment according
to the cloth or else get new cloth" was
his way of putting it. On the uues
tlon of a constitutional convention the
Governor made this statement: "You
can change the constitution by a con
vention or by amendment."
—lt Is very apparent that Dr.
Brumbaugh is going to start out to get
his legislation framed early anil to
have it well discussed and then gone
over by Attorney General Francis
Shunk Brown. Then he will follow
out his ideas about the executive and
the legislative branches of the gov
ernment.
—People about the Legislature who
saw something in the make-up of the
House committee on law and order
discussing the predalictions of the
members of the Tlouse rules commit
tee which was announced to-day. This
committee is composed of Speaker
Ambler, cx-officio; E. E. Jones, Sus
quehanna; Viekerman, Allegheny;
Whltaker, Chester; W. 11. Wilson,
Philadelphia, and Shaffer, Columbia.
The latter is a Democrat. This com
mittee is all powerful as it makes the
rules for the House and it is said that
iit stands live to one in favor of the
"drys." This means the local option
bill will not be hampered while in the
House. The law and order commit
tee is now said to be fourteen to eleven
in favor of the "drys," which means
that it will also have plain sailing in
the committees. The Senate commit
tee is ten to one for the "wets."
—The Antisaloon League ueople,
who have turned in behind Governor
P.rumbaugli, are claiming greater
strength than in the last House and
so are the antilocal optionists. Local
option people say that if they can get
thirty-four votes they can pass the
bill and the strong declaration of the
Governor in favor of local option is
counted upon to bring some of the nec
essary number into the fold. The bill
is scheduled to be presented in a fort
night and no time will be lost by the
committee in getting it before the
House. The chances are that it will be
acted upon earlier than has been the
case in the last three sessions.
GOVERKOH BHI MBiUbH'S ADDRESS
TFrom the Phila. North American. 1
We consider it the best inaugural
delivered by a Pennsylvania Governor
in our time. And our judgment is that
so far as it went —and it went a long
way. considering conditions in the
State—it was all that any one could
reasonably expect.
Even standing alone, as the declara
tion of a sincere man aware of his re
sponsibilities, it would command ad
miration. But when read in the light
of iiis first important appointments, it
takes on a special significance.
Its most obvious feature Is the em
ployment of straightforward, Anglo-
Saxon terms, as to the meaning' of
which there can be 110 doubt, and the
deflniteness with which the Executive
declares himself upon the istfuqs most
prominently before the puplic. He
shows a proper appreciation not only
of the general duty of a public officer,
but of the obligation resting upon him
and his party, as when he insisted that
"we give the people the laws they have
demanded and we have promised."
SONG
I love were but a little thing—
Strangfe lovo, which, more than all,
is great—
One might not such devotion bring,
Early to serve and late.
If love were but a passing breath—
AVI Id love—which, as God knows, is
sweet—
One might not make of life and death
A pillow for love's feet.
—Florence Earl Coates.
