GUTTING WORK UNDER WAV
COMMENDABLE energy is being
displayed by Councllinen Bow
man, Lynch and Taylor in get
ting under way the various
public improvements coming under
fheir direction as heads of municipal
departments. Notwithstanding all
that has been said to the contrary,
these three men have been doing their
utmost to get the Spring work under
way and to provide employment for
as many men as possible. Even with
ihe weather conditions anything but
favorable, they have put a large num
ber of men on the payroll this week
who are very much in need of the
money they thus will be able to earn.
Little remains to do on a number of
the. big contracts except to put on
the. finishing touches and indications
arc that the great improvement cam-1
paign undertaken more than a decade
ago will have been completed in the
main before midsummer. That being
true it would seem that the Chamber
of Commerce Committee entrusted
with the arrangements for a big cele
bration to mark the completion of the
gigantic task then undertaken and
now being brought to a successful
completion ought to get busy with its
plans and dates.
NONT\RTIS.\N FAILURE
A BILL is to be presented in the
Legislature this week asking for
the repeal of the nonpartisan
provisions in the Clark third
class city act. It is to be hoped that
this repealer will be passed and that
the Governor will sign it. The non
partisan feature of the act has been a
failure from its very inception. What
ever may be said of the Clark law as a
whole, the operation of its nonpartisan
provisions has been farcical in the ex
treme.
Not only has this nonpartisan fea
ture not eliminated politics from city
government, but it has compelled par
tisan candidates to masquerade as no
man cares to do. The three Repub
lican members of City Council, for
instance, were elected as Republicans.
Everybody knew they were Repub
licans and they were elected largely
because of that fact. Almost every
vote that has been registered since the
organization of the city government
along the lines laid down by the Clark
net has had a. partisan basis. Repub
licans have voted as a unit. So have
the Democrats.
The next election will witness a tre
mendous effort on the part of the
local Democratic machine to place
three of its representatives in Council.
Deliberate attempts are now being
made to blacken the characters and
the reputations of the Republican
members with the idea of weakening
them as candidates for re-election. No
matter whether the nonpartisan re
pealer is adopted or not, the next elec
tion in Harrisburg will be fought out
along partisan lines, just as the first
one was, but it would be much better
to have it conducted in the open in
stead of behind the fragile mask of
the Clark act provision that bars the
use of party names.
HEAVEN* ON EARTH
THE REV. CHARLES F. TAYLOR
proposes to erect in Greenwich,
Conn., a little corner of the
Kingdom of Heaven on earth.
The fact that two-thirds of the world
is torn by shot and shell and about
half of the remainder is wondering
whether or not it ought to get into
the melee has no terrors for the Rev.
Mr. Taylor. He is going to start the
millennium at Greenwich—that is, if
the people of Greenwich will only elect
him Mayor.
"Greenwich is the ideal community
in which to found the first corner of
the Kingdom of Heaven on earth,"
says the ministerial aspirant for mu
nicipal office, because of its ideal sur
roundings, its natural healthfulness
and the great amount of money upon
which It can draw out of sort
of constructive reform. The Rev. Mr.
Taylor notes that Greenwich is one of
the richest pluccs per capita In the
country, and the biblical precept that
it is easier for a camel to pass through
the eye of a needle than for a rich
man to enter the Kingdom of Heaven
appears to have no part in his celestial
program.
The Rev. Mr. Taylor says he already
has received promises sufficient to
warrant his election, but It is very
much to be feared that he will get
awake the morning after election to I
find out that there are more candl- j

i dates in Greenwich for the Ananias
Club than for the little corner of the
celestial kingdom which the mayoralty
candidate would set up there. It fre
quently happens that way with less
ambitious reformers than the Rev. Mr.
Taylor.
BANK SECURITY
ONE of the younger trust com
panies of the Central Pennsyl
vania district, whose manage
ment has been criticised mildly
by some of its stockholders for not
declaring larger dividends from earn
ings that have been unexpectedly
large, issues the following statement
In reply:
The object of this company is to
afford absolute security for the
financial transactions in its bank
ing field. If there are those who
■believe that our object should bo
to grow big, we do not agree with
them. If there are those who be
lieve that our object should be to
pav dividends, we do not agree
with them. Our paramount object
is to afford security, and is not to
grow big or pay dividends; for it
is only by affording absolute se
curity that we can render effici
ent and satisfying service in the
growth and development of our
banking community.
If by increasing our security we
also grow big, well and good. If
by increasing our security we are
also enabled to pay dividends, well
and good. But whatever we do in
• the conduct of this trust company,
we do because we believe it will
help us to afford security and ren
der service. If we solicit a pros
pective patron, we believe that he
or she will assist us in maintain
ing the security of this trust com
pany and the efficiency of its ser
vice. If we discourage a patron,
it is because we believe that the
patron's business endangers the
security of this trust company and
the efficiency of its service.
If every bank follewed those rules
there would he fewer failures. No
bank exists solely for the profits of its
stockholders. The banking business
is necessarily one of routine, and ex
travagance and extremes have no
place in conservative bank manage
ment. A banker must be a student of
political economy and must be able
to apply its principles to his business
in such a manner as to utilize the ex
periences of the past in his analysis
of present conditions and what they
portend for the future. A good bank
er appreciates his relations to the bus
iness community and he must be more
than a mere receiver and lender of
money and a dividend earner for his
stockholders.
In times of panic and distress, he
must come to the aid of deserving
customers and prevent the failure of
any solvent ones who are in trouble.
He must be identified with those
things of a constructive nature—phy
sically, morally and intellectually—of
his community.
In brief, a composite picture of a
banker would show a com
bination of moral worth intellectual
ity, financial and commercial ability,
integrity, amiability, tactfulness, cor
diality. patience and unfailing cour
tesy. He must be more than a mere
money grubber. A banker whose in
stitution was reckoned as the best
dividend payer in the United States
recently fp.lled for an enormous sum.
Th 4 trust company management
quoted is right; the bank must be
judged by the efficiency of its service
to the community and not by the
amount of the earnings it pays on
outstanding stock.
VERY MICH IX EARNEST
IF any political party in Harrisburg
recorded an attendance of 1,500 at
a mass meeting its leaders would
feel that their ticket stood a very
good chance of election. Indeed, it is
only by the hardest kind of work and
the widest publicity that 1,500 men
can be induced to attend any political
meeting, unless they are drawn there
by desire to hear some very distin
guished or eloquent speaker. As a
general rule they do not turn out in
such numbers merely for the purpose
of registering their political views or
endorsing any set of candidates.
How different it is in the present
local option campaign now Veing
waged. On Sunday 1,500 men, all of
them voters, attended three mass
meetings in Harrisburg to urge upon
local legislators that they support the
county option measures now before
the legislature. This means but one
thing—that the voters are very much
in earnest on this subject. They pro
pose to make their wishes known in
no uncertain terms and legislators who
do not comply therewith at least
cannot say thereafter that they had
not opportunity of judging the senti
ments of their constituents.
A SOUND ARGUMENT
IT stands to reason that the Stato
commission which made the study
of the condition of dependents in
Pennsylvania under the terms of
the act of the last. Legislature ought
to be the best informed body on such
matters at the present time. It hail
the advantage of authority from the
General Assembly, the services of ex
perts nnd the co-operation of organi
zations and individuals which have
been considering industrial problems
at close range and which have exam
ined carefully into the causes leading
to increase in that part of the popu
lation which must be supported
through charity. Its report is a mas
terly summing up of the causes and
conditions attending dependency in
the Keystone State, with its compli
cated industries and diverse elements
of population.
When this commission recommends
that enactment of a system of work
men's compensation is a necessity, its
remarks should have weight. It
points out that fair return for in
juries would lessen public burdens
and bring direct relief, the end which
should be sought by a Legislature
mindful of its pledges. The argument
in behalf of a compensation act is
sound and should be heeded.
AN EVENING THOUGHT
We must truly serve those
whom we appear to command:
we must bear with their Imper
fections, correct them with gen
tleness and patience, and lead
th<<m in the way to heaven.—
Fenelon.
I EVENING CHAT I
The candidacy of Hoy D. Beman, of
this city, for the high seats in the
State Odd Fellows recalls the fact that
several men identified with Harrlsburg
life have filled the chief offices in the
influential order in yearn gone by. In
1857 Robert A. Laniberton. afterward
president of Ivehigh University and one
of the notable Masons of the State,
was elected to the headship of the
Odd Fellows. He was noted far and
wide for his interest in the organ
ization and a lodge was named for
htm. Some years ago Christian W.
Myers, of Lancaster, but affiliated with
one of the Harrlsburg lodges because
of his residence here as chief of the
county bureau of the Auditor Gen
eral s Department, was elected to the
office, and soon after the Rev B H
Hart, of Fifth Street Methodist Church!
was elected. Mr. Hart, however, came
asi a member of the Huntingdon lodge,
with which he had been affiliated. Mr.
Beman has been head of Fountain
Lodge and has been one of the most
fu 2. "'embers of the organization in
the State, filling many places involv
ing considerable hard work.
i >ne of the causes for good-natured
complaint on the part of street cur
conductors, especially on the uptown
lines, is the enormous number of pen
nies given as car fare on Market davs,
Wednesdays and Saturdays, when wo
men members of the "basket brigade"
are returning from marketing in Ver
beke street markethouse. On these
mornings the women form the ma
jority of street car riders, and they
have a habit of unloading their pen
nies on the long-suffering conductors.
They are usually well supplied with
the coppers, on account ol the many
odd prices at which so many forms
of larmers' produce are sold. As a
consequence, the conductors' pockets
bulge with pennies, and some of them
nave turned in at the office at the end
of theiV run as many as 400. One
amusing feature of the pennv habit
is the alleged reluctance of the women
to receive pennies in change from the
conductor, who sometimes desires to
rid himself of the burden, tine con
ductor said he almost got Into a ns:
fight the other day in a near-argu
ment with a woman who objected to
taking five pennies in change for a
dime she handed him.
There is a pile of snow In State
street near Fourth that defies the sun
shine. This snow remains over from
the fall of ten days ago and it so hap
pens that it is located so that the sun
light does not reach it with much
force. A number of people have re
marked it and have noted the peculiar
angle of the building that protects it.
There are also piles of snow to be seen
on mountains and in fields near the
city which through some freak of the
sunlight are almost as they were a
week ago.
"I see.'' remarked a man who notes
things, "that it is a high crime and
misdemeanor for some State officials
who go about the state lecturing to
accept- an honorarium. I have read
with interest what has been said on
the subject and also that while no ob
jection was made some years ago here
it is questioned now. I also note that
in most counties it is generallv done
without comment. What strikes me is
that it is now a source of criticism
when William Jennings Bryan, who
gets twice $6,000. frankly goes about
the country for what he can get out
of the gate receipts."
"My. what a racket that drummer
is making" and similar remarks are
heard quite frequently in the Harris
burg theaters. Yet the person who
makes the remark, were he to hear
the same composition played without
a drum, would instantly say that it
was a poor sample of music. A march
played by an orchestra without the
accompaniment of a drum would be
almost as big a farce as an army with
out ammunition. When played* alone,
or witli a piano accompaniment, a
drum produces nothing that could be
called music, but to a band or an or
chestra It is as indispensable as any
of the parts, according to musical au
thorities.
Harrisburg's weather prophets are
not a unanimity as to future rendi
tions. When one of the old-timers
referred to yesterday's snow as "the
onion snow," he was scoffed at by .1
veteran weather observer. "You'll "not
set the onion snow for Sometime,"
was the statement.
"Then we'll never get it." spoke up
another veteran citizen. "If there is
no onion snow before March 28, there
will be no onions." was the explana
tion. A fourth prophet broke into the
same. "You are all wrong," he said.
"We will get the onion snow after Ras
ter. and I'll bet a hat." The argu
ment continued for a long time and
finally the prophets agreed to con
sult their favorite almanacs. "Drat,
your almanacs," said the oldest in the
group, "I have watched the weather
for seventy years and know what I'm
talking about. This is the equinoxial
we are getting, and the onion snow
will come later."

Trying to Attract Attention to Leg

WANT A COMMISSIONER, TOO
James Gay Gordon May Oppose
McCormick For the National
Committeemanship
Democratic State Chairman Roland I
S. Morris and the rest of the discredited J
bosses of the Democratic State ma-!
chine are starting a great play in the
Legislature this week with Ihe hope
of reviving interest among the dln
gusted adherents of their party and
also in the belief that they can win
the appointment of PhlladelpUrfa regis
tration commissioner. Morris is loudly
proclaiming his desire to secure pas
sage of a local option law, although
he realizes that nothing he can say or
do will change a. single Democratic
vote and that all the noise he makes is
to attract attention to his machine.
Morris has arranged to have a room
open in the windmill so that such
Democratic members as desire can sit
around when it rains. He will visit
this room occasionally, but he will do
most of his business from the throne
room at Third and Market streets.
—The indications are that men op
posed to the machine wing ol! the State
Democracy will rally behind Ex-Judge
James Gay Gordon as candidate for
national committeeman in case it
comes to a showdown at a State com
mittee meeting to select a successor to
A. Mitchell Palmer. The reorganiza
tion gangsters are in hopes that some
way will be found to avoid a meeting
and are talking as though Morris could
act for the present. Although Pal
mer will be on a federal bench he will
probably have a good bit to say about
the federal patronage In Pennsylvania
as long as Blakslee is in the Post Office
Department.

persistently rumored is here to co
operate in any move toward helping
Governor Brumbaugh in his local op
tion fight in the Legislature.
"Flinn's sudden return in the midst
of warm political happenings at Har

started rumors that he is planning to
break back into the Republican ranks.
"Flinn's replies to-day dodged direct
answers to the question, 'Are you going
back into the Republican party?'
" T am not back in the Republican
party yet," he said, smilingly.
"The Progressive leader met a num

to take a hand in legislative matters,
said he had nothing to say in politics.

Is an aeroplane the safest place for
