GOING TO THE I'EOPLE
GDVERNOR BRUMBAUGH said
when he was campaigning that
if elected to the highest office
in the State he would listen to
the voice of the people and upon more
than one occasion since he assumed
his duties he has asked the popular
opinion about things. He invited the
people to send to him their ideas on
workmen's compensation, conserva
tion, the highway problem and num
erous other questions. He has given
Interviews in which he has made de
sire to get the people's viewpoint and j
to do as they wish the keynote.
In issuing (Vie proposed legislation to
establish workmen's compensation in
Pennsylvania in pamphlet form the
Governor has practically called for a
referendum. He has done something
that no other Governor has done. John
K. Tcner personally encouraged wide
spread discussion of workmen's com
pensation last session and his commis
sion in charge of the act published its
bill. Governor Brumbaugh has gone a
step further. He has issued the whole
series of legislation with comments
for and against,and, besides furnishing
n copy to every newspaper, has taken
steps to put it into the hands of manu
facturers, labor leaders, everyone who
could bo expected to give an opinion
on it and asked that comments be
sent to him.
The Governor has placed everything
right out on the table. The people
of Pennsylvania know what he pro
poses and he has asked what they
tliTnT? about it. The' people owe it to
the Governor to give him their best
thought not only for his own guidance
but for the Legislature as well.
CLEARING THE RIVER FRONT
EVENTUALLY the entire River
Front, with one possible excep
tion, must be cleared of wharf
age. As the river coal supply is
exhausted the large coal fleets will j
gradually diminish in size and the j
traffic will be reduced finally to the
vanishing point. But the sand fleets
will continue to do business indefinite
ly, if anything increasing in numbers
with the growth of the city, so that
there will be always some river freight
demanding dockage facilities which
the city in some manner is bound to I
provide to a reasonable extent.
A start in clearing up the River
Front at Market street has been made
by the passage through council of an
ordinance transferring the docks of
the Ilarrisburg Light and Power Com
pany from Market street to the island,
and it is proposed to follow this piece
of legislation with another which in
effect will close entirely the obnoxious
wharves along the river promenade
between the two bridges, at a point
where the river park is most used and
where the unloading of coal would be
not only a nuisance but an actual peril
to women and children using the walk
nt the top of the steps.
The operations of the Bowman or
dinance to transfer the remaining coal
tratttc from Market street to Paxton
and Verbeke streets would transform
the Market street landing place from a
dirty, noisy coal wharf to a beautiful,
restful continuation of the river park
way, and would enable council also to
close permanently the docks and drive
way at Herr street. Thus all of the
traffic would be cared for at two
points, Paxton and Verbeke streets,
which wquld be a big improvement
over the present hap-hazard, hit-or
miss manner of handling the coal and
sand traffic.
A pen sketch of the proposed wharf
on the island, published on another
page of the Telegraph to-day, shows
how unwarranted were the fears of
those who opposed that change on the
ground that it would detract from the
beauty of the landscape. Scarcely
forty feet in length, not nearly so
high as the trees that fringe the island,
constructed in ornamental design of
stucco and painted to blend with the
greens of the plant life in the back
ground, the building will be obscure
and unobjectionable.
WHAT WILL THE ANSWER BE?
WHAT will the Church in Har
risburg do to help keep the
work oi the Home and War
Relief Committee going until
April 1 ?
This is the question hundreds u£
hungry and helpless poor in this city
arc asking to-night?
During the two months and a half
that the Relief Committee has been
helping the needy throughout the city,
more than 400 families have been kept
from starvation. Several hundred
SATURDAY EVENING,
others have been clamoring for as
sistance, but the funds of the com
mittee have been insufficient to meet
the cries of all. Nearly all of this
work has been carried on with money
given by individuals. Now the relief
fund Is down to the point where its
assistance must of necessity cease on
March 19, if more money is not ob
tained at once.
In this exigency, the Ways and
Means Committee decided to appeal to
the religious, organizations of the city.
Surely among those whose love of fel
lowman may be presumed to be sec
ond only to love of God will be found
willing hearts and open purses, the
relief committee believes.
Whether the committee is right or
not to-morrow —Sunday—will show.
The Ways and Means Committee, of
which W. M. Donaldson Is chairman,
has addressed a letter to the pastor
of every church asking him to bring
this urgent matter to the attention of
his Sunday school departments and
classes.
If the churches respond as nobly as
they did during the Stough campaign
there can be no question in the minds
of even those who "sit in the seats of
the scornful," that the church is really
fulfilling its mission in Uarrisburg and
is living up to those high ideals set by
Him in whose footsteps it professes to
follow.
Thousands of dollars were given dur
ing the Stough campaign for mere
running expenses. Nearly $5,000 was
given the evangelist for his seven
weeks' work.
Now from hundreds of homes comes
the cry of need. Those whom "ye
have with ye always" are without the
actual necessities of life. Money must
be had if they are to keep body and
soul together until the Spring im
provement operations give employ
ment to the men of these families in
distress.
As the church militant, Uarrisburg
proved its mettle.
As the church "merciful," as the
church "charitable" will it do as
nobly?
Hundreds without church connec
tion in Harrisburg are waiting for the
answer.
WILLIAM UHLER HENSEL
FOR years Harrisburg has regard
ed William Uhler Hensel as one
of its own. Through his ser
vice as chief law officer of the
Commonwealth under the second Pat
tlson administration, his frequent ap
pearances as attorney in the several
courts of Dauphin county, his learned
addresses at meetings and his visits as
an honored guest he won many ad
mirers and friends. He said that he
always felt at home in Harrisburg and
his liking for the city was returned
by its people who came to know and
appreciate him.
Mr. Hensel won so much fame as a
lawyer that his services as historian
and publicist were not as widely
known. From the time he began his
distinguished career at Lancaster's
courthouse he had a leaning toward
journalism and his writings speedily
attracted the attention of Charles A.
Dana and others whose names stand
high in the literary annals of Amer
ica. Had he chosen he could have
become one of the great editors of. the
country.
This State owes a debt to Mr. Hensel
for his researches and for the splendid
addresses he has delivered from time
to time upon subjects of interest to the
Susquehanna valley. The painstaking
care whlcit marked his legal work and
which shone through his writings was
bestowed upon his historical labor and
when he spoke or wrote it was with
the voice of authority.
It is a great pity that his health did
not permit him to continue the his
torical study he loved. His death takes
away a man who won high place by
devotion to duty and who used to say
that the way to succeed was by work.
Mr. Hensel will be sincerely mourned
In IJauphin county, for the loss of
Lancaster Is our own.
FIRE IiOSSES
NEW CASTLE has undertaken The
education of its people in fire
prevention measures. The first
six days of May will constitute
lire prevention week in that city. Ex
tensive plans for the observance of
this period are under way. A parade
will be a feature of one day, a part of
which will be made up of various floats
illustrating means for the prevention
of fires.
Several days will be given over to
removing from cellars and other parts
of buildings all rubbish and other ac
cumulations conducive to the origin
and spread of fire. Lessons will also
be given in the latest approved meth
ods of fire-fighting—particularly the
incipient blaze that might be easily ex
tinguished with little loss If caught in
time. '
The New Castle idea is a good one.
Harrisburg has had disastrous expe
rience with fires this year. The city's
losses have been unusually heavy. Our
fire insurance rates are higher than
many believe they should be, but there
will be little chance of any reductions
until some means is found to cut down
our losses. Anything with that in
view ou&lit to be welcomed by all of
our people.
REDFIELD, PROTECTIONIST
IK Secretary Ucdlield isn't careful
he'll be read out of Wilson
Cabinet as a rabid protectionist.
Within the past few days the erst
while champion of the Underwood
tariff law has given expression to such
opinions as these:
That America can make her own
dyestuffs if a way is found to prevent
German manufacturers from under
selling the domestic producers.
That American coke makers are
ready to enter this field of byproducts
if assured of a permanent market
with reasonable profit.
And finally, that a tariff protection
or privilege of combination like that
now permitted in Germany would
bring about the desired result of open
ing America to the manufacture of
dyes.
First thing Secretary Hedlield knows
he'll be recommending; the re-enact
ment of the DinKley tariff law.
["EVENING CHAT I
Almost without exception, the Ital
ian and Greek residents of the city
and Steelton look for their countries
to become embroiled in the war be
cause of the chance to even up old
scores with Austria and Turkey. In
Steelton the Rumanians and Bulgar
ians admit that It is only a question of
time until their home lands are mixed
in the war and they are showing no
disposition whatever to go back to par
ticipate. In fact, the attitude of the
foreign born residents hulling from
the Mediterranean and Balkans to
ward war and possible wars is entirely
different from what It wus a few years
ago. When Italy went to war with
Turkey a number of men went from
here to join colors and others sent
contributions and evoryone recalls how
the Balkan residents here were in
terested In the war in 1912. Now,
while they all admit that their coun
tries arc going to tight they say that
the.v are going to stay at home and
pray for success. The general Impres
sion among Italians is that it will not
[ be long until Italy strikes for the re
covery of the Italian provinces that
have long been under Austrian yoke
and the Greeks say frankly that the
Hellenic kingdom is just waiting for
the weather to get decent before en
tering the war against Turkey. The
Greeks show considerable feeling
about it too, just as do the Serbians.
People from this city who have
visited the navy yard at League Island
lately have been impressed by the
quiet sense of preparedness that pre
vails among the officers and men and
the big warships in "fighting gray"
seem to have brought home to the
minds of a good many that Uncle Sam
has gotten ready for eventualities no
matter what turns up. League Island
is always a favorite place for Harris
burgers and those who have been at
the island recently say that there Is
no question but that the navy has been
provisioned and fitted out for any
thing that may arise.
Captain Joseph A. Baer, son of the
former principle of the Uarrisburg
high school, who has been a member
of the faculty at West Point, will be
assigned to Fort Ethan Allen, Vt. He
will rejoin his regiment after several
years In the Academy where he was
instructor in chemistry.
The Harriburg Public Library has
added to its collection in the last
week a number of the standard and
popular books on the Balkans, Aus
tria, Russia and other countries which
are attracting attention because of the
eastern theater of war. These books
have been made very easily accessible
and afford a quick means of obtaining
accurate information about the places
now occupying the big place in the
daily news. The book of Sir Douglas
Mawson, the explorer who recently
spoke here, has just been added to the
list.
"Harrisburg's got a lot of things
that other towns of'lts size, even in
the progressive west, do not have.
Out west the.v start towns with paved
streets and lighting plants and wait
for building and you know what hap
pens," said another traveling man as
he stood at Front and Market and
looked at the Susquehanna. "Here you
have been putting on the trimmings
after it is settled that you have a
town. Harrisburg is. a well-rounded
out city, barring, of course, your lack
of a hotel that could compete with
some in smaller places. Otherwise
you've got a good town and it's nice to
visit here."
An interesting fact came to light
yesterday in looking up an address.
The city has a number of so-called
"long blocks" wherein there are long
rows of houses and the numbers run
up into the forties and fifties. It hap
pens that there is one block in the city
whose numbers very nearly reach the
hundred mark. This is In South
Front street, where there is a house
numbered 599. It is an old part of
the city where there has been no di
viding of the numbers, although the
rest of the city lias been carefully
split up into sections so that locations
may be more easily found.
A new bid for historical prominence
comes from Selinsgrove, where the
heirs of the Snyder family offer to sell
to the State the birthplace of Governor
Simon Snyder. The old house stands
in Market street in Selinsgrove nnd is
in a good state of preservation. Selins
grove people will ask that a bill for
the purcuase bo introduced in the
Legislature next week. Governor Sny
der presided over the destinies of
Pennsylvania during the troublous
times of 1812-1814.
Some of the members of the Harris
burg Chamber of Commerce are so
well pleased with the recent trade ex
tension trip that they will ask for an
other, to be held when cool weather
comes next Kali. There are many Har
risburgers who have no more than a
passing acquaintance, so to speak, with
the towns along the Cumberland Val
ley. Harrisburg business gelations
with these communities are extensive
and growing and it is believed that a
trade extension trip through that lo
cality would be beneficial.
A friend writes: "A year ago we
were having sleigh rides, the boys were
coasting on the side streets and skat
ing was fine. Washington's Birthday
last year was one of the snowiest days
ever known in Harrisburg and the real
winter lasted more than ten days."
Dauphin county lovers of trout are
arranging to ask tUe State for ship
ments of young fish to stock Arm
strong's, Clark's, Stoney and other
creeks in the county. The Swatara
will be looked over for places to
"plant" the fish.

Character and
Reputation
Every man has a character
but h*" has to make his own
reputation.
Character Is what you are.
Imputation is what others
think about you.
A manufacturer creates a
product with a definite character,
but until he establishes a repu
tation for it that character has
little profit making value.
He must make others see and
realize the character of his pro
duct.
He must tell them about it in
a convincing way In a medium
where his words will be read.
Ho must advertise. If he Is
wise he will advertise in the
newspapers, thus reaching con
sumer and dealer at the sumo
time.

Makes an Address at Reading
Which Gives His Viewpoint on
Many Propositions
FOR LATE INAUGURATION
Does Not Think Much of Taking
Office When the Legislature
Is in Session
—People on Capitol Hill and a good
many throughout the State read with
Interest the remarks of Governor
Hrumbaugh at the banquet of the
Chamber of Commerce at Reading last
night. The Governor has made sev
eral speeches in Philadelphia, but last
night at Reading he gave more atten
tion to State matters than In any of
previous addresses. Incidentally the
Governor told how it felt to be chief
magistrate and endorsed from his
own experience the recommendation
that the Governor should not be forced
to take office right at the start of a
legislaUve session.
—The chief features of his address
were:
All that makes for the progress
of Pennsylvania depends on you
men. You cannot legislate right
eousness into the people. You
can only legislate righteousness
into the law and if you want good
laws you must send good men to
the Legislature. Over a month
ago you changed the chief execu
tive of your Commonwealth and
also your Houses. X think it would
be better for this Commonwealth
if the Governor could be in office
a year before this Legislature
takes office so the chief executive
could study the problems of the
people before the laws are
changed. You ought to stand
with me for a civil service in the
State so that a good man will bo
protected against political fac
tions. I should not be allowed to
removo these men just because a
number of you voted for me.
—A number of Philadelphia ward
leaders have joined Senators MeNlchol
and Vare in Florida and tho political
program Is now being made up.
—Refutation of the story emanat
ing from Scranton on February 20, to
tho effect that Representative Farr
was forced to put up $7,000 to the
Lackawanna Republican County Cam
paign Committee, after he had de
clared for Roosevelt in 1912, is given
in tho official expense account tiled at
Washington. Mr. Farr's expenses
amounted to $2,135.55. Under the law,
a Congressman cannot expend more
than $5,000 in his primary and general
election campaigns. The Scranton
story went on to say that A. Mitchell
Palmer had knowledge of the large
contribution and was compelled by
Lackawanna Railroad influences to de
sist from lsing it against Mr. Farr in
the campaign. Mr. Palmer denied most
emphatically that ho ever knew of
such a contribution. He said the
Lackawanna railroad had never in
fluenced him in political matters.
—Governor Brumbaugh has re
ceived a letter from J. B. Carruthers,
State Secretary, stating that at the
forty-seventh annual convention of tho
Young Men's Christian Association,
held at Johnstown. Pennsylvania, Feb
ruary 19 to 22, the following resolu
tion was passed: "Resolved, that we
extend our heartiest congratulations
to our Governor, Martin G. Brum
baugh, on his splendid efforts in be
half of the young manhood of the
State to deliver It from the evils of
the legalized saloon, an agency which
is doing so much to demoralize and
destroy them. We assure him that In
this he will have our hearty sympathy
and active co-operation and we call
upon the members of the Senate and
House of Representatives of our State
to second his efforts to give the citi
zens of Pennsylvania the opportunity
to redeem their several communities
from the manifold evils of the liquor
traffic, by passing speedily a local op
tion bill which will be satisfactory to
the Governqr and which will be in
harmony Trtth the temperance senti
ment ol' the State."
—Representative Wilson G. Saris, of
Berks county, is out with a statement
in which he attacks the management
of the Democratic party. He says that
in the Legislature the Democrats cut
no ice. Mr. Sarig Is a new member
and is learning.
—Montgomery county farmers have
declined to endorse the proposed agri
cultural commission until they learn
more about it.
—The names of W. T. Creasy, John
G. McSparren, John P. Kester, E. S.
Bayard, W. C. Norton, E. A. Weimer
and others active in agricultural and
political matters are being mentioned
as possible members of the commis
sion to have charge of the Department
ol Agriculture.
—A dinner to have been given by
Lackawanna brewers to legislators has
been called off. It is said that it was
di'opped because newspapers printed
something about It.
—Francis Feehan is quoted In Pitts
burgh as saying the Brumbaugh com
