j In accepting the Invitation to ad
dress the conferences in the Chestnut
j Street Auditorium. A. Mitchell Palmer
addressed the following letter to the
local option committee to-day:
! J. y <lear " ir: Your letter of the
■ thirty-iinn ultimo is received. 1 shall
j be very glad to speak at the local op
i tion conference In the Chestnut Street
j auditorium on Tuesday, April 6, if 1
(can possibly arrange to be there. I am
eavlng home on Saturday and it may
j bfe difficult to arrange to get back to
i Harrisburg so soon, but I will do it if
| possible. Being deeply interested in
I the success of the Governor's plan, 1
am anxious to do everything I can to
help. Sincerely yours,
"A. Mitchell Palmer."
Ihe committee statement says; "It
is estimated that ten thousand sup
porters of the Williams county local
option bill from ail parts of Pennsyl
\ania will come to Harrisburg to
morrow to participate in the demon
stration in behalf of the Governor's
measure. Special trains and special
cars will bring the delegations to the
Capitol City. The majority of
delegations have reported\ to head
quarters that they will arrive in Har
risburg to-morrow morning in time
to take part in the first conference In
the Chestnut Street auditorium at 10
o clock. The hearing on the bill will
take place at 2.30 o'clock i« the after
noon, and the evening meeting will be
held in the Chestnut tsreet auditorium
at 8 o'clock.
"The Governor will sound the key
note of the meeting in his speech in
the auditorium to-morrow evening. It
will be emphasized particularly by the
speakers at the conferences that
local option is only another- name for
local soli government. It means the
right of the voters in a county to vote
directly on the question as to whether
or not licenses for the sale of intoxi
i eating' liquors shall be granted in
|their county.
"It is the plan of the committee that
I the program shall consist of a num
ber of short addresses on Local op
tion. The details of this program
will be determined upon to-night at a
conterence of the committee members
from all parts of the State in the
| Commonwealth Hotel, at 8 o'clock,
j This meeting will be well attended,
according to reports, which have been
j received at headquarters. There will
jbe a tremendous influx of local op
tion ists to-morrow. Special trains will
■ bring delegations from Philadelphia
I and Pittsburgh. It is stated in Phila
delphia that their delegation will num
|ber three thousand, and from Pitts
burgh, it is reported that there will
be at least five hundred on the spe
! rial train coming from that city,
i There will be special cars from Beav
|er. Mercer, Chester, Lycoming, Sny
|der. Blair, York, Montgomery. Bucks.
! Union. Northumberland, Jefferson, In
. (liana and Delaware and Washington
counties. The visitors will be wel
comed l>y a Harrisburg committee
' headed by E. Z. "Wallower, one of the
i leading residents of the city. Ar
rangements have been made for a
band, and it is likely that this band
will meet delegations at the station
and escort them to the auditorium.
In the event that there 4s an overflow
attendance, open air meetings will be
held."
Judges Asked to Aid
in Local Option Fight
Governor Brumbaugh has called on
judges and lawyers to help the local
option fight, lie has issued this let
ter:
"Let the people decide the matter.
Prqtect our Judges and lift their elec
tion above the plane of possible criti
cism and their services above the in
defensible plan they now reluctantly
but necessarily must stand in the pub
lic mind. The letter says in part:
"More than any other thing, our
judiciary should be relieved of the
duty of considering applications for
the granting of licenses to sell intoxi
cants. It is a function wholly outside
the range of judicial service. It has
already worked palpable harm. It
should cease. The judges in our sev
eral counties should not be Involved
in an issue which is specifically the
people's.
"1 submit, therefore, that it is now
opportune to move in this matter de
cisively. Will you not at once as
semble as many of your fellow attor
neys as possible and formulate and
forward to me opinion of the
effect of" granting or refusing licenses
upon your court, and. If you agree
with me. use all honorable endeavor
to pass the local option bill now be
fore the assembly. Let the people de
cide this matter. Protect our judges
and lift their elections above the
plane of possible criticism and their
services above the indefensible plane
they now reluctantly but necessarily
must stand upon In the public mind.
"For the integrity of our judiciary,
for the good of society, for the wel
fare of the Commonwealth, I ask you
to act and act promptly."
Churchmen to Tarn Oat
in Force Against Ram
In answer to the pleas of their pas
tors, hundreds of churchmen will par
ticipate in the monster local option
demonstration to be held here to
morrow.
Men's Bible classes will take a big
part In the parade. The class of Derry
Street United Brethren, the largest in
the city, will meet at the church and
march from the Hill through the cen
tral business section. Grace Methodist
Episcopal, Pine Street Presbyterian
and many others will send strong
contingents.

i Chicago Saloonkeepers
Invite Sunday to City
Special to The Telegraph
Chicago, April s.—Saloonkeepers
want "Billy" Sunday to come to Chi
cago. A petition is being circulated
among them inviting the evangelist to
conduct a revival here. Several of the
best-known men in the business,
which Sunday characterizes as "iniqui
tous," have signed the petition which
will be forwarded to Paterson.
The following message has been re
ceived from the evangelist:
"The information that David Lewi
sohn, George Silver, Fred Pfeffer,
Frank J. Duffy and other Chicago sa
loonkeepers had signed petitions In
citing me to come to Chicago for re
vlval campaign is the most unique,
amazing and gratifying bit of news I
have ever heard of or received. Chica
go never does anything by halves and
she goes the limit, and yet I am not
wholly surprised.
"I knew these fellows In other days
and they had a good streak In them.
I especially know Fred Pfeffer, as he
was one of my old side-kicks on the
famous old Chicago White Stocking
baseball team, and to my mind no one
could cover second base and whip the
pill over to first just like Fritz. It is a
further evidence of the times, and of
the great moral tidal wave that is
sweeping over the land and most of
us realize that old John Barleycorn has
three balls and two strikes called on
him."

flung up on the short of the break
water yesterday afternoon. The 10
were drowned almost under the eyes
of the lifesavers from .the Cape Hen

velocity of 60 miles an hour all of Fri
day night and Saturday, and for a
period on Friday night more than 70
miles an hour were registered.

HERE IS PROOF
THAI RESiNOL .
STOPS ITCHING
The best evidence of what tha
Re3lnol treatment will do for YOUR
' tortured skin is what it has done for
1 others. Here is a man whose WHOLE
' BODY was covered with tormenting
eczema. When HE says that Kesinol
; stops itching immediately, ho knows
what he is talking about. Just read
his simple, straightforward letter:
"My entire body, even my eyelids,
. was completly covered with blisters.
The burning and Itching were some
thing terrible, and I COULD NOT
1 SLEEP nor rest. I think I had one of
| the worst cases of eczema a human
I being ever had.
"I used eight different kinds of
1 remedies without success. I then tried,
i Reslnol Ointment and Resinol Soap
and it stopped tho itching IMME
DIATELY. I gradually noticed a
change for the better. Now lam en
tirely cured." (Signed) Edward F.
McCullough. 249 River street, Boston,
Mass., Aug. 11, 19H.
Now ask yourself this question: "If
Reslnol could heal THIS man's skin, t
will it not also heal mlno?" 'Sfou can
get Reslnol Olntmont and Reslnol
Soap at ANY drug store, or for freo
trial write to Dept. 10-R, Reslnol, Bal
timore, Md. —Advertisement.
