TUESDAY EVEXING, FEB. 2.
A <IVSTIFIABLE FILIBUSTER
THE Republican minority in Con
gress has been engaged in a pro
longed filibuster to prevent the
Democrats from passing tho ob
jectionable ship purchase bill. Ordi
narily filibusters are of little value and
not to be countenanced generally as
good form in legislative procedure.
They are obstructive rather than con
structive in their objects and rarely
achieve any worthy end, but that until
yesterday in progress is an exception
to the rule.
Just now the Democratic force
seems so divided that the Republicans
may not find further effort necessary,
but if they do they will hold out as
long as physical endurance will pcr
• mit, and it is to be hoped that this
limit will not be reached before
March 4 next and that the fighting
minority will be thus able to prevent
Democrats and the President from the
frightful blunder of adopting a piece
of legislation that has in it all the
potentialities of international discord,
if not actual warfare.
We have seen in the Dacia incident
tho possibilities of this kind of legis
lation. We may not agree in all of
the claims that England has made in
this relation, but we cannot shut our
eyes to tho fact thpt there are two
sides to this case and that our British
friends have some pretty weighty ar
guments with which to confront us
should the matter come before a court
of arbitration. This ono misunder
standing on our hands is had enough,
but to multiply it by scores through
tho passage of such a bill as the Presi
dent Is urging would be the most fool
ish kind of policy and one which the
country at largo would oppose most
vigorously had it the privilege of
registering its opinion.
IXTKRCOL'NTY BASEBALL
DAUPHIN and Perry county base
ball fans have the diamond
fever in such a violent form
that they have called a meeting j
to be held at the Courthouse in Har
risburg on Wednesday, February 10,
to discuss the formation of a twin
county league.
It is to be hoped that the effort will
be successful. Marysvillo, Newport.
Duncannon, Millersburg, Halifax and
Dauphin, which towns it is proposed
to include in, tho new organization,
would be much benefited by amateur
baseball next summer. An intercoun
ty league of this kind would do much
to bring together on a friendly basis
the people of those communities and
would establish social and business
relations of inestimable value. Base
ball in instances of this kind is not
only a form of wholesome sport, but a
leaven that injects life and activity
into communities otherwise more or
less inclined to be somnolent during
the summer months.
THE ANTI-SMOKING ORDER
THE State Industrial Board of the
Department of Labor and Indus
try has done much since its or
ganization for the benefit of th«
working people of Pennsylvania, but it
never issued a better order than that
which forbids smoking in workrooms
or stockrooms in which there is kept
inflammable material. There may be
thoso who look upon this as a hard
ship, and the Industrial Board is per
fectly willing that any such may lay
their claims before it, with the assur
ance that modifications will be madt,
in all cases, where they are deserved
within a reasonable limit This rule
is intended for the benefit of both the
employer and employe.
The pipe, the cigar and the cigaret
have been responsible for many flres.
The frightful holocaust which took to
their deaths some 300 employes of a
New "York shirt factory several years
ago was the result of hot cigaret ashes
dropped Into combustible material.
Carelessness in throwing away half
burned matches has also cost thou
sands of dollars in property and lives
In Pennsylvania and the State Eoard
is Justified in taking whatever action it
deems necessary to guard against a
peril that has been so costly as this
and which can be so easily avoided.
There can be no objection to any
individual smoking until the air is
blue so long as ho docs not endanger
the lives and property of others or
indulge in the practice to the extent of
decreasing his own efficiency as a work
man. It is difficult to understand why
a man should he permitted to smoke
constantly at. his work any more than
. that ho should be permitted to keep
TUESDAY EVENING,
beside hts machine a box of oranges or
apples with which to satiate his stom
ach's cravings at intervals of five or
ten minutes. The man who interrupts
his working movements to light his
pipe, to put it into his mouth and re
move it as often as the notion strikes
him is not giving the attention to his
work that he should. He is not as
good a workman because of this, and
for his own good as well as for the
safety of himself and his fellows he
should not complain if the order of the
Industrial Board Interferes with his;
indulgences In tobacco during working
hours.
GOOD WORK
THE Roberta Disbrow Lloyd Sun
shine Society does not figure
much in the newspapers. Its
members evidently believe in the
biblical injunction not to let their left
hands know the good works their right
hands do.
An example of the kind of charity i
in which they are engaged leaked out
on Saturday when the Telegraph was
permitted to tell the story of a little J
crippled girl who is being brought back
to life and health in one of the great
hospitals of Philadelphia through the
beneficence of this organization. Had
it not been for tho Sunshine Society
this little one would have gone hob
bling through life a burden to herself
and her friends, if Indeed she escaped
an early grave. As it is. indications
are that she will be brought back to
full vigor of youth. If this were the
only good work the society ever per
formed, its existence would have been
well justified, but It Is ony one of J
many.
' I
TIIE HERSHEY TABERNACLE
RELIGIOUS activities of all sorts
are conducted to-day on a scale
of vast proportions. It is an
nounced that a large force of
men has begun work already on the
erection of a great steel and tile taber
nacle at •fclershey, in preparation for
the international gathering of the
Church of the Brethren at that place
next May. When the Brethren met in
Harrisburg some few years ago the
temporary structures erected for their
use at Paxtang were the marvel of the
thousands of visitors who attended the
great gathering, but they were mere
pigmies compared to that now going
up. To-day little Hershey thinks
nothing of putting up a building with
a seating capacity of 5,000 for the
purpose. This is not only an indica
tion of the increased interest mani
fested in recent years in religious
meetings of all kinds but it is a tes
timony to the generosity and progres
stvencss of those In authority at the
chocolate town.
MORE GOOD NEWS
TWO more items of good news of
an industrial nature appeared in
the Telegraph yesterday, namely,
that the Central Iron and Steel
Company is working full time night
and day and tile other that the Penn
sylvania Railroad Company has or
dered steel for its new bridge across
j the Susquehanna at Mulberry street.
However things may be going na
! tionally, and there are indications that
all is not as well as it might be in
some phases of the steel Industry, con
ditions are unquestionably improved in
Harrisburg and vicinity. More men
are at work now on the railroad and
•in the mills of this locality than at any
time for the past year. Mill managers
and officials may be as pessimistic in
their views as they like, but when the
payroll is going up business is on the
increase, and the fact that the work
ing forces are larger now than they
were a year ago is proof positive that
business conditions are better now
than then.
YOUR PACKAGE OF SEEDS
YOU will get your little package
of seeds this year, if your name
appears on the list of your local
congressman. You may not have
any use for seeds and you may not
know a cucumber seed from a lima
bean, but you will get your little pack
age just the same. After a hard fight
and strong opposition Congress has
passed a bill appropriating $252,540
for free seed. In the old days of Re
publican supremacy Democratic poli
ticians and Democratic newspapers
used to shed tears annually over what
they termed "this waste of public
money," but they have failed to change
matters now that their own party is in
power.
There never was any excuse for
broadcast distribution of government
seeds. The idea originated at a time
when the United States Department of
Agriculture decided to introduce new
and superior qualities of seeds to the
farmers of the country and to induce
them to experiment with certain other
varieties of plants, grain and vege
tables and to report their results to the
national authorities. This was all very
wellrin that it turned every farm into
a government experiment station at no
cost to the country, induced farmers to
give thought to the quality of their
seeds and made them acquainted with
standard varieties. But the distri
bution as at present conducted ap
proaches graft as nearly as anything
can and escape the stigma of that
term. The free seed is now used
merely to advance the political pros
pects of congressmen and the pack
ages very often fall into tho hands of
people who have no earthly use for
them. The system Is all wrong and
should be abolished.
The fllabuster seems to have been a
buster, Indeed.
A scientist cornea forward with the
idea that after the war. In order to re
populate the earth, each man be com
pelled to have three wives, the
war go on.
Don't put on your Spring underwear
just because Mr. G. H. didn't see his
shadow to-day.
That bill for automatic bellringors
on locomotives may be all right, but It
is to be hoped nobody will amend it to
include trolley cars
1 EVENING CHAT 1
The secret is out about Governor
Brumbaugh. It has been known that
he was wood cutter, school teacher and
other things that fitted him for the
place he occupies, but it also trans
pires that once he was connected, as
were all great men, with the art pres
ervative of arts —printing. The Gover
nor "knows the case." He admits it.
It seems that when he was a young
ster in Markeisburg, liis native town,
he wandered into the village printing
office where The Pilgrim, a church pa
per, was published, und got a job. Me
washed rollers, made the (Ire, "swept
out" and did other things connected
with rural printing offices and recalls
the work required to make the old Hat
bed press run. When he was not do
ing that he was sticking type and he
is proud of the fact that he learned
how to set type. The Governor's career
has been well rounded out as far as
the formative stage goes and he is
going some now and will go in the fu
ture.
The discussion of the bill for exten
sion of Capitol Park has caused many
of tho members of the Legislature to
take a big interest in what has been
done and a number of them went to
upper stories of the Capitol yesterday
and noted how the buildings had been
taken down in the forty-one blocks in
the district. Some of theni were sur
prised at the progress made in remov
ing tho old structures and the various
plants and the fact that not one case
has ever been appealed to court is not
without an impression upon the law
makers. The pork extension is gen
erally regarded by the legislators as
good business.
People who went along Front street
yesterday were rather surprised at the
number of squirrels to be seen in the
city's riverside parks. These animals
came from the Capitol, seeking homes
in the big trees along the Susque
hanna, probably because of the view.
The cold rains and the snow prevented
tliem from getting their usual supply
of food and they came down to the
pavements to do some begging.
Among visitors to the city yesterday
was W. L. Petriken, who come here
accompanied by his daughter, to see
his sister. Miss Margaret Petriken. He
lias just come from a trip to Kurope
[which has a great industrial interest.
In Denver Mr. Petriken is head of the
Great Western Sugar Company which
has done much to develop the beet
sugar industry and he went to Hol
land and Germany to purchase beet
sugar seed. ITe bought 115,000 bags,
making an outlay of J650.000 and they
will be used in the west. Germany
anil Holland are the centers of this
industry. Mr. Petriken was aided by
the national administration and on his
return he called at the White House
to thank the President for help given.
Paul H. Furman, of Philadelphia,
who is here in the interest of child
labor legislation, used to he a news
paperman in Philadelphia. He had
charge of the city desk on the old
Philadelphia Times years ago.
The letter A caused some excitement
in Market Square this morning. The
letter was a part of the big sign on top
of the Kaufman building and took a
notion to break loose from its moor
ings. It hung by a single wire and
swayed and swung for half an hour,
causing passersby to look nervously
at it. Finally r.-orxmen engaged in
clearing out the burned building took
it down.
The fact that to-day was the anni
versary of the. burning of the old Capi
tol was recalled by some of the old
timers on the "Hill" to-day and they
remarked the similarity of the weather
on that day eighteen years ago and the
atrocious variety to-day.
George F. Watt, who has just been
re-elected president of the Elliott-
Fisher Company, is being congratulat
ed by his friends upon the honor given
him and upon the progress made by
the company in the last year. The
Elliott-Fisher is no longer a mere in
dustrial establishment in Harrisburg.
It is a Harrisburg institution and is
products are known the world over.
The splendid plant at Locliiel and the
wide reputation of the book typewrit
ers and billing machines show what
Mr. Watt has accomplished.
The Harrisburg Public Library has
added to its collection of books on
Kurope the handbook of the Euro
pean war. Tho book was recently is
sued for quick answering of questions
about the conflict and there have al
ready been calls for it. One man want
ed to know how much wheat Germany
raised and another wanted data on the
standing of tho army of Holland.

Lord, the new life of a new day. My
path will be the busv thoroughfare;
walk with me unseen. My thoughts
will bo of my business. Let not my
heart cleave to these things, hut
through the sweet influence of Thy
Spirit incline me to seek things that en
dure.
"I shall he tempted to-day; I may be
drawn to the verge of some awful mis
take, in the swift moment when I can
not withdraw to my closet of prayer—
give me to know the right and the
power to do it. I*et not trifles ruffle
my temper, nor disappointments unman
me; let not exacting duties make me
f-ellish and churlish; give me rather a
sunshiny face, and tho Joy of a word
fitly spoken to some timid, discouraged
soiil.
"Strength for the day's service give
me in such measure as Thou wiliest:

when the shadows fall, bi'ng me again
unsullied by word or deed to sweet, re
freshing sleep. For Christ's sake.

Dr. Brumbaugh Called Upon to Do
Something That No Governor

STATE BOARD SELECTIONS
Hensel Named For the Valley
Forge Park Commission; Legis
lative Gossip Today
—Governor Brumbaugh last night
appointed men to fill his own place
three times. It is probably the first
occasion on which a Governor has been
called upon to name his own successor
so many times and the fact attracted
much attention on the "Hill," especially
as he named a Democrat to one of the
positions.
—The Democrat chosen was ex-At
torney General W. U. Hensel, of Lan
caster, one of the foremost historians
of the State, who was appointed to
succeed the Governor as a member of
the Valley Forge Commission. Dr.
Brumbaugh was named to the. place by
ex-Governor Samuel W. Pennypacker
and he took great pleasure in naming'
his old county friend to the
commission. Mr. Hensel has been ill
and the appointment will doubtless
give him great pleasure.
—The vacancies on the State Board
of Education • because of the resig
nation of the Governor and Dr. G. M.
Phillips, now principal of the West
Chester State Normal School, were
filled by appointment of Dr. W. C.
Jacobs", who succeeded the Governor
ns superintendent of the schools of
Philadelphia, and James M. Coughlin.
superintendent of the schools of
Wilkes-Barre. Dr. Coughlin was a
member of the commission which
drafted the school code, serving with
the Governor, and is a close personal
friend and as widely known as an edu
cator as Dr. Jacobs.
—Dr. Samuel Hamilton, of Brad
dock. superintendent of the schools of
Allegheny county and one of the well
known educators of tbe country, for
mer president of the State Educational
Association and a frequent visitor
here, nnil Dr. W. P. Crawford, presi
dent of Allegheny College. Meadvilje,
were named to fill vacancies on the
College and University Council. One
of these vacancies was due to the re
tirement of tho Governor.
—Judge C. E. Terry, of Wyoming
county, is likely to have a fight for're
election this Fall. Bradley W. Lewis
is one of the men mentioned as likely
to enter the race.
—Appointment of a judge for Phil

—Democrats in the Legislature are

trict, were House visitors.
—Representatives Hibschman, Lan

sick and unable to attend this week's

—Representative Dell. Huntingdon,
presented the bill for the Blair Hos
pital at Huntingdon last night. It car
ries $ 16,000.
—Numerous committee meetings are
scheduled for to-day.
—Apparently the House is not to be
deluged with bills as it was last ses
sion. A number of members have de
clared that they have Governor Brum
baugh's admonition rot to force laws
on the people when they have more
than they know what to do with and
there is a disposition to let the big bills
have attention and not to clutter up
the lists. More appropriation bills
have appeared than usual at this time.
—How the Democratic machine
bosses and henchmen must gnash their
teeth as they think of Republicans
holding the places on Capitol Hill dur
ing the new administration and during
the Legislature. Some evidences of
the feeling were given this morning
and there was a good bit of speculation
about the legislative halls as to what
hungry machine Democrats would do
if they got a chance. It will be re
called that there were some Democrats
on the legislative payroll last session,
but the money they returned to the
Treasury did not amount to so awful
much.
—Some of the bills making their ap
pearance last night were old friends,
visitors from last session.
—Tho hunters' license repealer pre
sented by Senator Sehantz. of Lehigh,

REUNITED lIKI'I'BLICANISM
[From tlie Philadelphia Public Ledger.]
One of the unfortunate features ot
our form of Government is that the
will of H. majority of the people may be
frustrated. In 1912 there were 2,450,-
504 more votes against Woodrow \\ il
son than for him. The Democratic vote
was 6.293,019. The Republican. Pro
gressive, Socialist and Prohibition
combined total was 8,743,523. Suppos
ing the vote is analyzed from the
standpoint of an important policy of
Government. Mr. Wilson stood for a
low tariff, and both Mr. Taft and Colo
nel Roosevelt stood for a high tariff.
The combined Republican and Pro
gressive voto was 7,604,463, which
means that 1,311,444 more votes were
cast for a high tariff than for a low
tariff. Yet Congress immediately re
vised the tariff down-ward.
A powerful third party does not make
for truly representative Government.
Although Taft and Roosevelt together
polled 1,311,444 more votes than Wil
son they could count only ninety-six
votes in the Klectoral College against
Wilson's 435. It is obvious, therefore,
that in the interest of representative
Government, which involves the pass
ing ot ießislation consonant with the
belief anil will of the majority of citi
zens. the Republican and Progressive
parties must come together.
Kdward Randolph Wood, of the
city, has rendered a distinct service in
bringing the subject to the members
cf the national Republican convention
of 1912. Their responses indicate a
deepening conviction that the differ
ences which brought about the Repub
lican defeat should be minimized, and
that a basis of agreement can be found
upon which the liberal and conserva
tive elements of the party may stand.
This is bv no means impossible.
The splitting of the Republican party
was not caused by a divergence of
views upon the distinctive and his
toric Republican principles. If the
clashing of personalities is left out it
will be found that the Progressive
movement was the expression of im
patience with overcautious legislation.
There was no repudiation of Republican
policies, but a demand for new legisla
tion that went far beyond what the
conservatives thought wise or neces
sary. I'nder such circumstances it
ought not to be difficult to rehabilitate
the Republican party and present a
united front to the Democrats in 1916.
All who seek to bring this about are
performing not only a party but a iia
tlnnal service. .

STORY RITEN'
By the Messenger lJoy
«-
I By the Messenger Boy
I Yesterday bein the first of the month
was a tipickal Feb. day and very mean
for messenger boys to get about on
their bikes, so we had to tramp
through six inches of snow, water,
etc., to carry messages for the Assoc.I
and United Presses nnd other corres
pondents and newspapers; also tele
grams to the Chamber of Commerce
maktn otters for new factrys and in
distrvs to move here; and also dis
paches to the new Gov. suggestin state
flowers and legislative bills. Most oth
er people had more sense than to
bother boys with messages on such a
bad day.
It was very nice for folks to stay in
their front parlers and watch through
the winders at other people wailin
through the puddles, and listen to em
swear when a sixteen-mile a hour auto
come along and splash muddy slush
all over their coats and trouser legs,
their spectacles and collars.
Of course it makes more work for
the steam laundries, and the automo
bile drivers, too, thinks it lots of fun to
smutty up a couple of perdestrians
every block along a street. But such
things is hard on the good effects of
the Stow campaign, and the Kernel
and the Mayer ought to stand out on a
corner some wet day and put a stop
to it.
Automobiles as a rule has too much
license in runnin as fast as they please
and they ought to be charged more
license taxes by the treasurer of the
road department so he could spend
more repairin country highways for
the farmers.
The other day there was a Cap.
park squirl got out of his bounds and
went to cross the 4 street car track in
front of a car comin down the grade.
Tie stopped right on one of the rails
and the inoterman jammed his brake
jist in time to stop the car three feet
away from the little fool.
Then the squirl moved out of danger
