The National Guard of the State of New York is the only rival Pennsylvania has as far as organized militia Is concerned and it is a matter of pride with a good many Pennsyiva nians to feel that their State is a big factor in the line of first defense. The proposed military code now pending In the Legislature would con fer upon the commander-in-chief the authority to raise organizations to the standing of a complete division. The Importance of this can be appreciated by those who went through the Span ish war and saw organizations created after months of work. But in addi tion to providing a way it is up to the Legislature to provide the funds. If tho military establishment is to be put up to the mark and kept there, and Pennsylvania included in a na tional scheme of defense, the appro priations should be made to do It within a year. If the time for lining up to defend comes it will come swift ly and militiamen properly encourag ed will be something to fall back upon. It is predicted that women will wear extremely short skirts next Spring, but not because they can thereby do housework more easily. THAT HERNDON BRIDGE WHEN the Chamber of Com merce trade expansion ex cursionists visited Herndon the other day the spokes man for that town called the atten tion of the visitors to the need of a bridge over the river at that point, stating that while Herndon is a center of transportation for the district sur rounding it, it is greatly handicapped by lack of means of getting its traffic across the Susquehanna. Forty-five miles is the distance between bridges, the speaker said, which is little less than a disgrace, in view of the popu lation and the interwoven interests of the communities thus separated. State Senator TV. C. McConnel has introduced In the Legislature a bill for a bridge at this point to cost $250,000. Farmers and others of Northum berland, Union and Snyder counties would certainly welcome the passage of this bill. The girls would probably be willing to knit socles for the Belgians, if the boys would come around and keep them company. LIVING UP TO HIS NAME SHELDON LIVINGSTON, of .'orcu plne. Wis., is living up' to his name. Livingston lives four miles from a school house. He has to walk both ways. Yet in four years, through rain and sun, wind and snow —and they do have some weather in Wisconsin about this time of year— Livingston made the trip. For four years he has not missed a day. Like Livingston of African fame hardships, hard work and the wilderness have no terrors for him. Parents whose little boys make ex < use to "stay at home" rainy days in districts where the school houses are only a block or two apart, ought to read this little story to them. Young Livingston may not win the renown of that other Livingston, but it is a safe wager that any boy who is living up so consistently to so diffi cult a program as he has laid out for himself is going to develop into a pretty good citizen who wilt give ac count of himself in some sphere later in life. Modern dancing la mostly sitting around watching some one else do It. INFLATED PRICES WHEAT prices ought to come down to normal with a bun..> hard enough to rattlo the teeth of those speculators who have been responsible for present conditions. The only possible reason for raising prices was the prevailing opinion that the vast quantities of wheat being shipped out of the coun try might put the country on short bread rations. Now we learn, from a FRIDAY EVENING HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH FEBRUARY 19, 101?. no less authority than Secretary Red field, that we can continue to export a million bushels of wheat a day every day until the new crop is available and still eat as much as usual. That being true, measures should be taken to knock the props from be neath tho artificial prices now pre vailing. This country will not stand for six-cent bread or smaller loaves with our granaries teeming with tho crops of the biggest wheat harvest the country has ever known. It Is not right that our people should be ♦axed with high prices to put dollars into the strong boxes of unscrupulous brokers and speculators. President Wilson has dwelt so much and so frequently upon his desire to protect tho people from the operations of dishonest and grasp ing businessmen that It Is hard to un derstand wny he does not take soma drastic action at once to bring about the readjustment in the wheat market to which the consumers are entitled. It is claimed that the United States la defenseless, but anyway the army is scattered around at inaccessible spots whore the enemy can't get It. There is a widespread feeling that it would be healthful for Mexico If a few shots could accidentally cross the border from our side. FARR AND PALMER REPRESENTATIVE FARR beard ed the Democratic congressional lion In his den yesterday and dared to voice on the floor of the House some of the things that heretofore have been but tdlo rumors In the corridors referring to alleged affiliations between tho aforesaid lion, one A. Mitchell Palmer, and some of the trusts that—in hispoliticalspeeches —the defeated senatorial candidate has been expressing so keen a desire to "bust." In short, Mr. Farr called Mr. Pal mer a "lobbyist," and gave what might appear to the lay mind to be some very cogent reasons for his accusations. But Mr. Palmer came right back at him. Yes, indeed, he did. He called Mr. Farr "a tadpole." Just like that, he said, "You're a tadpole." With which dignified reply and logical argu ment he was content to let the charge stand. Thus did tho representative of Penn sylvania again display his wonderful qualities of oratory and statesmanship. Some people will k'ck on Increased railroad fares because it will hinder them from going to some big city and buying goods that they will afterward want to return. Some one asks what has become of the girl who used to wear a woollen scarf about her neck in winter. Well, about now she is wearing a low neck ' waist, and stopping In at the drug- i gist's to get some cough cure. RIVALS TO THE THOLI.EV THE well established electric car systems are facing two rivals, the so-called "trackless-trol leys" and the "jitney cars" that have turned up In large numbers in many Western and Southern cities. Of the two the last named is prob ably the most serious. The "jitney car" is nothing more than the taxi cab reduced to a five cent fare basis and operated over regular routes by individuals or companies. They swarm the streets of some cities to such ex tent that the trilley lines are putting on larger automobiles to compete with them and street car managements are not a little concerned as to the future of their business. Perhaps their alarm is justified. More likely it resembles that of the proprietors of scores of print shops all over the country when the typeset ting machines first appeared in the shops of competitors. The analogy, of course, is not applicable in a gen eral sense, save that the printers, like the street car operators, feared for the future of their business as the result of the newcomer in their field of oper ations. The result have been, how ever, that the printing business has grown by leaps and bounds. Probably that will be the effect on the street car business. The five cent "taxi" will do nothing more than encourage people to ride instead of walk, and when they are not in autos they will be on the trolley cars. The trolleys may even profit to the extent that the five cent automobile service will take up surplus traffic in [crowded cities and prevent a demand for elevated lines or subways, the coming of which invariably relegates surface travel to secondary Import ance. In view of the protests of our Gov ernment against interference with our commerce, it is believed that the war ring powers will let hymn books be ex ported as not contraband. CONTEMPTIBLE TEM ITERS BECAUSE a Chicago school teacher flirted with one of the girls in his classes he has been dismissed. Nothing could be I much more ungentlemanly than such a breach of conduct as that with which the Chicago instructor was charged. Just one other thing along this line is possibly more contempti ble—the effort of an employer to take advantage of a woman in his shop or office. That some employers do take, or make an effort to take, such liberties is, unfortunately, true. Contemptiblo Is the only word that describes the character of such a man. Just how many girls yield because they fear to lose their jobs no one knows. But doubtless most of those who do give in are dragged down be cause they fear the club of the dis charge silp. Having offered valuable criticism of the way the war relief and other charity work Is carried on, many peo ple feel that they should be relieved | from contributing any money. A correspondent asks what has be come of tho old-fashioned boy who used to walk three miles to school to get an education. Well, just now he Is sitting on a rock at the cross roads waiting for the transportation wagon to take him half a mile to the school- I house. fTVENTNGCHAn Friends of Dr. Nathan C.

Men stood riveted to the spot, women screamed in ab ject terror, and pandemonium reigned. To increase the realism of living death that seemed to be enshrouding the sepulchral aspect of the place, a de monical guard of barbarous foreign countenance, and accent in gutteral tones, ordered the transoms closed. I knew the end was nigh, and with calm indifference devoid of hope awaited the last gruesome catastrophe." .Mr. Perkins withholds the name of the witness.—New York Sun.

ONE OF VANDYKES ■ WILL GET A PLUM Revenue Collectorship Likely to Be Settled by President Within a Short Time KIRKENDALL MOVES ALONG Bryan Beats Out Palmer and Morris in the Selection of a Western Officeholder —The appointment of Fred C. Kirkendall, of Wilkes-Barre. collector of internal revenue in the Ninth dis trict for some time by grace of the Democratic machine, to bo collector of the reconstituted Twelfth district, is taken to mean that within a few days President Wilson will decide what to do about tho collectorship of the Ninth as now made up. The leading candi dates arc Warren Van Dyke, secretary of tho Democratic State committee, and candidate of the bosses, and T. I<. Van Dyke, old-time Democrat and can didate of tho plain people. There are some others but it Is Intimated that I they need not come around. Palmer is said to be Inslstont on Warren and Bryan is said to see many good points in T. K. No matter who is chosen, a lot people will be mad. —Kirkendall was named as collec tor of the district as President Taft made it when he consolidated it for economy. Palmer needed more jobs and got the President to agree to split ting it up again. Thus Kirkendall is able to be near homo by having head quarters in Scranton and Lancaster will be the seat of the new collector. For the present Kirkendall will prob ably run both jobs. His appointment never was a popular one for the Demo crats in this district who wanted the job. One of the Interesting stories is that Palmer did not consult Congressman Cas>jy, of Luzerne county, Kirkendall's home county, about the appointment at all, but just went over his head in revenge for Casey's defeat of Palmer's man for the ways and means commit tee. —The city of Lancaster is preparing for a big loan election next month, and it is of interest to people at the Capitol because Lancaster still oper ates under its old 1818 charter. The amount of the loan is $395,000 for im provements. —The usual crop of candidates for the Superior Court is being heard of and men prominent in tho law are be ing told that their friends are active in their behalf. The general opinion appears to be that the successor to Judge Rice will come from the anthra cite region and Judge H. A. Fuller is prominently mentioned. —The selection of the postmaster at Huntingdon is keeping a good ninny Democrats about the State amused. No matter how the appointment finally goes there will be a bitter light among the Democrats in that county. The situation is typical of the Palmer lead ership. —Between now and March 5 at least 300 postmasters will be named in this State and Congressman Palmer will have his hands full trying to keep the peace in the machine ranks. I Democrats are wondering whether the selection of Grovcr Cleve land Buser to be postmaster at Hum melstown means that tho Williams town muddle will be settled and whether it does not foreshadow the selection of C. W. Rubcndall for Mil lersburg. —Judging from Washington dis patches Secretary William J. Bryan has won his tight with Representative A. Mitchell Palmer to name the next Collector of Customs at the port of Pittsburgh to succeed M. M. Garland, whose resignation is on file at the Treasury Department. It was official ly stated last night that Mr. Aeklin, Mr. Bryan's personal and political friend, would be named by President Wilson before the adjournment of Congress on March 1. William C. Mc- Adoo, Secretary of the Treasury, lias decided finally that Mr. Bryan's wishes in this particular case will be re spected and ho will send Mr. Acklin's name to the President within a few days. The collectorship, which has been held by Mr. Garland for sixteen years, has been one of the most sought after offices in the State. Representa tive Palmer and Democratic State Chairman Roland S. Morris, indorsed George W. Deeds, of Ligonier, West moreland county. Then came along Vice-President Thomas R. Marshall and suggested that the quarrel be end ed by the appointment of John P. Bracken, of Carnegie, a delegate from Allegheny county to the Baltimore con vention. Secretary Bryan refused to have Acklin sidetracked and Messrs. Palmer and Morris stood by Mr. Deeds. When Secretary McAdoo received Col lector Garland's resignation and found Ills cabinet colleague standing firmly by the man who had befriended him as far back as 1896, he decided that Mr. Acklin should have the place. —Senator James P. McNlchol, in the first formal statement of the present legislative session, yesterday, announc ed that the Workmen's compensation and child labor bills presented by Gov ernor Brumbaugh would have the full support of the Republican Organiza tion. The statement was issued by the Senator a half-hour before his depar ture for Florida, where, in company with State Chairman Crow and Sena tor Edwin H. Vare, he will spend ten days. "Governor Brumbaugh will have tho hearty support of the Republican majorities in the House and Senate in and of his Workmen's Compensation and Child Labor bills," said tho Tenth ward Senator. "I cannot speak with re gard to the details because the Gover nor has not yet set these forth speci fically. but I feel satisfied that in the essentials they will meet with the ap proval of all parties concerned.
