TELLING THE PLAIN TRUTH THE TELEGRAPH is in receipt of the following letter from a well known Harrisburger of Inde pendent political views: I Iread, with a great deal of pleas ure, your recent editorial headed '"Purpose of Attacks." To nij mind these straight-from tlie-shouder, honest, sincere and absolutely plain-truth editorials have more weight than columns of partisan argument in favor of or against anything or condition. The ultimate result of such un reasoning and unreasonable critl- I < isms as have been indulged in | against the present Council can only result in one of two things, .•mil probably both—that the quali fications of the candidates who offer themselves as city Councilman will not be up to the standard the city is entitled to. or those who do offer themselves will have beforehand made up their minds to pay 110 at tention to criticism, and when we luivi- elected this last kind of 'a man. the trouble Is that ho is not open to criticism or argument, good or bad. 11l fact, it is the old story of Wolf! wolf! wolf! until both the wolf and the lamb become hardened and accustomed to the cry, with results disadvantageous to both. The foregoing is published with nu vain-glorious notion of self-laudation, but to emphasize what this newspaper many times has insisted is a stumbling block to efficient public service and a grave peril to good government. The Telegraph's correspondent sets forth what is unquestionably true, vhen he says that much of the criti cism directed toward the Republican majority in City Council is "unreason able," and that its effect cannot be other than disastrous upon the minds of voters who accept it as truth. Il l there be any so thoughtless. Figures that anyone may verify 1 show that the Republican eouncilmen t for the three Republicans aione are responsible for the constructive por tion of the councilmanlc program) have saved to the city over and above Ihe salaries paid them, about $50,000 during the first year of their terms in office. In addition, they have made many improvements and there is no point upon wnich (they have not done) all in their power to conserve the in terests and the moneys of the tax-1 imyer. Every attack that has been made j upon them lias come from one-quarter and has been made with the sole pur-! pose of so discrediting them in the eyes of voters that it will lie for the Democratic machine to elect a majority of the councllmen to be chosen in November. There is no other reason for the course that has been adopted by the mouthpiece of the Democratic bosses in this city. At every turn the councllmen have done their best for Harrlsburg. They have performed their work conscien tiously. and as the figures will show anybody who desires to consult them, very efficiently. It is discouraging to be adversely criticised in any case, but much more so when one has done j his utmost. The whole tendency of this policy is to force upon public ofli-1 cials the thought that conscientious cf- f fort is not appreciated, and that they j may as well be slaughtered for wolves as for lambs. Fortunately, those now in the service of the city are not weak enough to take that view of the situ ation. but who shall say how those who succeed them, whoever they may be, will view the matter? \ITOM \TTOX F1 J ears ago to-day General Grant accepted the surrender of General Lee at Appomattox. The United States had justified itself. The government of Washington and Lincoln was perpetuated for all time. Then the future was as dark almost as the present. Nobody could peer through the awful curtain that hung between the destruction of war and the reconstruction of the peace that was to follow. General Grant It was who struck the keynote. Grant it was who extended all the courtesies and kindnesses that one brave man might expect of another to Lee. Grant it was who, after the tiger strife was over, first extended the good right hand of American brotherhood to the rebel leader and stood by Jiis action with the threat of resignation when Stan? ton would have dealt harshly with the defeated general. As one writer has said, it was the humane and generous terms offered to the bcitten, disorganized and famished Army of Northern Virginia that de cided Lee not only to sheathe his sword but to urge his men "to go as quickly and quietly to their homes as ijosslble, to resume peaceful avoca tions, and to be as good citizens as they had been soldiers." And that is the spirit that animates American* 10-day. There la no North k. f - FRIDAY EVENING, HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH - . APRIL' 9, 1915. and there is 110 South, save in the geographies. This country is the United States of America and it is so because Grant set the example of "letting the dead past bury its dead." This, and not the victories that went before nor the Presidency that came after, was the crowning point in Grant's re markable career. FORGING THE FINAL MNK THERE is good news in the an nouncement that surveys for the proposed three-mile stretch of driveway that is to wind through the city parkway from the present terminus of Cameron parkway to the Reservoir have been started by the engineering corps of the Park Depart ment and that within the next few weeks City Commissioner M. Harvey Taylor, superintendent of parks and public property, will be ready to ask for bids for the construction of the road. An outline of the city park system, as published by this newspaper yes terday, gives'one a very fair idea of the magnificent stretch of driveway that will surround the city with the forging of this linal link. Few inland citie's have anything to compare with it. A motor trip or a tramp over its entire course takes one through quiet dells where birds twitter and violets bloom and rivulets trickle; across green, meadows and through the wild wood, along picturesque Paxton creek, over the heights and across the low lands, by the broad Susquehanna and beneath JJie low .brows of the moun tains. Lake, forest, picturesque bits of I natural growth and broad sweeps of I landscape; all fall within its scope. It has been a long time coming, but the glory of difficult accomplishment lies in it: the unselfish devotion of many men who have labored for it, the enthusiasm of our people who voted their taxes to it, and the gen erosity of those who gave their land to make it possibly. The city is a better place in which to live because of it and the people are the sole bene- ; ticiaries. Truly, it is an improvement | worthy of all the work and money j expended upon it: one that requires the creation of no depreciation fund in its behalf, no insurance fees for its protection, but that will grow steadily in value as the years go by. OX THE TANNING OF HIDES ORDINARILY one is not encour aged to look in the editorial columns of a local contem porary for sententiously ex pressed wisdom. In more ways than one the exact opposite is the rule there. However, the unexpected hap pens occasionally, as witness this apothegm which occurred in :.n edi torial criticising the School Board on Thursday morning: Constant lushing;,of the whip will harden any hide. It is not worth the while of the reader to point out that this is but a well-worn and not too elegantly ex pressed proverb. Origin and form are of small moment in this case; the important point is that the statement from such a source comes with all the refreshing effect of a truth new born. Few whips have been used mere vigorously and ruthlessly than that i wielded by the publication mentioned, j Seldom has an equal amount of en- j ergy expended ostensibly with tlie i purest of intentions been productive j of such meager results. But reason I has asserted itself at last. The fact, j long apparent to others, that mere castigation defeats its own purpose, is j admitted. Hereafter when this par-j ticular lash hisses through the air it 1 will be fair to assume that it is not j because good is expected to result. THE STATE AND BRIDGES SENATOR BEIDLEMAN has pre- i sented a bill in the Senate appro-1 priatlng $275,000 for tlie erection of a bridge across the Susque-I hanna river at. Millersburg, There can | be question of tlje need of a bridge at I that point. There is no bridge nearer 1 that thriving community than Clark's Kerry. Millersburg lies at the end of a fertile and thickly-populated val- j ley. The road that runs through it goes into Northumberland and Schuyl-j kill counties. On the west side of the j river lies an equally well populated j territory. Millersburg could be made 1 a business place of far greater im portance than it is and the people of 1 a great surrounding territory would i be benefitted by such a bridge as Is j proposed. The time is fast approaching when ! the State will have to go into the bridge building business on a large scale. Bridges that join two sections! of State highway must belong to the State. It is absurd that a condi-i lion should be allowed to exist such as | confronts the motorists going in or j out of llarrisburg to Or from tlie West, j where two sections of improved high way, one built l>y the city and thc ( other by the State, lead up to either one of two toll bridges. ' TIIE STEPS" T is to be sincerely hoped that Com- Imissioner Lynch's plan for the com pletion of the river wall steps along the abandoned coal wharf between Market and Walnut streets will be adopted by Council. There is no longer any need for wharfage facilities at the point named and the logical thing to j do is to remove the wall that has been I erected there and replace it with a continuation of the concrete steps that now run almost from one end of the city to the other. Only in this way can be maintained the harmonious effect of this great promenaxle. the like of which there is not elsewhere in the whole country. If there is any doubt about money at hand for the completion of the. im provement along the plans suggested by Mr. Lynch, then it would be much better to let the matter stand as it is for the present. The permanent es tablishment of what amounts to a wharf at thut point would be a very serious interruption of the unquestion ably artistic effect of the whole Im provement. Hut the amount Involved In not so large. It would seem, as to seriously hamper councllmen in their efforts to finish up this great work all at the same timv. 1 EVENING CHAT I "Bob" Magee gave his pigeon flock small attention yesterday. The martins are due from the South and he wanted to see that they found their nests be neath the Bates & Co. awning in Mar ket street. No less than a score of other folks waited for several hours yesterday in the hope of seeing the martin family .arrive. These lively, chattering blackbirds from the South are late this year. Last year they ar rived on April C. Muring the Spring of 1913 they were in their nests on April 3. It is the belief that the snow storm of last Sunday is holding the Spring messengers back this year. Once the martins are here and start work on their summer home, every body realizes that warm weather is a certainty. Until the awning of the old Opera House was torn away these martins made their nests there. Since that time they have been holding forth at the Hates awning, adjoining the po lice station. The martins usually come under the cover of darkness. They get busy at once and before many weeks there will be large family of these birds. They are scrappy birds, pull each other around by the feathers, knock each other from the nests and keep up a chatter that is heard from early morning until late in the evening. While "Bob" Magee was discussing the goodly qualities of his favorite topic, the martins, the question of early telegraph messages came up. The manager of the Stanley Apart ments was not long in producing proofs that he had an original copy of one of the oldest messages now in ex- Istance. The message was sent from Wrlghtsville. Pa., to Philadelphia, June 2ft. 1563, by the Atlantic and Ohio Telegraph Lines. The message was sent by Mrs. H. K. Bovd to Mrs. Martha Smith and read. "We are all safe." Mrs. Smith was at that time located at ft 3« North Fifth street, Philadelphia. Subsequently she be came the wife or the late Colonel Frank ,1. Magee, father of "Bob" Ma gee. The message was sent at the time the rebels threatened to burn the bridge across the Susquehanna river at Wrightsville. The Atlantic a, ml Ohio telegraph lines extended to Pitts | burg, Cincinnati. Louisville, Chicago, I New Orleans and intermediate points. I The Philadelphia oftlre was located at j 105 South Third street, Philadelphia. I he president of the company was the late .1. 11. Berryhill, of llarrisburg, and t.Vm su P er ' n ten dent, D. Brooks, of 1 hiladolphia. The message is in good condition and is valued very highly bv the owner. Some of the members of the Tech nical high school faculty have been chuckling for the last few days every time they recall a little incident in which a very absent-minded fellow meniber figured, it anpears that the instructor's wife had been afflicted with a sever cold and was using sev eral-grain quinine pills everv few hours Tlie otlur evening the wife called to her husband to bring a pill and a glass of water to her room. She waited a few minutes and then to her amazement she finally got this answer" "Gee. I'm sorry, Mary—but I didn't think what I was <loin£ —and T took that pill myself. I didn't remember until it was too late.'" Now and then the small son or daughter iof the house presents a problem in psychology that, figura tively speaking, makes father or mother "sit up and take notice." An admiring parent recently enjoyed that experience when his small son ex hibited a painful burn on his hand. The father is a riveter employed 011 1 the Cumberland Valley bridge con struction work over the Front street subway. The small son, who lives nearby, had wandered over ta the! 1 job and was playing about some of ■ the little furnaces at which the rivets! were heated. Incidentally he picked up a rivet which he believed was! J cold enough to handle. 1 "It hurted, papa," explained the i boy, "and I just had to cry. Mr ! Smith, who works with you, he ! burned himself on the hand, too. bdt he didn't cry—he swore. But I didn't , swpar, papa, because T knew ir I j > sweated, you'd give me a whippin'." I "Why, son," genially laughed his j 1 parent, "I burned myself the other day in about the same way, and " "Did you cry, papa," came from the mouth of the babe, "or did you swear?" I "I can tell when Spring is here by I the. blossoming of the red lights," said one of the city's well-known real j estate men. "These night blooming I flowers tell me when Spring is here. I The contractors get busy on street im provements and the warning red lights are to be seen affer nightfall on every 'side. It is a never-failing sign of Spring." | Among visitors to the city to-day I was Dr. L. W. Chaney, of the federal I department of labor, one of the most eminent men in statistics in labor | matters in the country. | For nearly a minute a downtown businessman waited for a reply when Ihe rung up his wife 011 the phone. I Finally be heard the receiver click | and his wife's voice chirped: I "I want you to come home right , away. I've lost my key and can't I get in the house." 1 "Then how in the name of all the j i saints were you able to answer the' phone?" queried the puzzled man. "Oh, I'm at Mrs. Jones'—she's on lour line and I answered the ring." Now who says a party line is a snare and a delusion? 1 WELL KNOWN PEOPLE | I —T. 1..

The big bills will be out of the House next week and it is the plan to devote at tention to the borough code and vari ous administration bills including the revenue raisers on which committees may give hearings. A hearing will also be held on the bill for the pro posed constitutional convention. The number of bills presented to the House is far less than the total of last session in the lower branch which was 2.7H4. An interesting fact in connection with the bills is that the date when they were stopped last ses sion was March 1 7. —The Senate has thus far received 825 bills. —Just 104 bills have reached Gov ernor Brumbaugh, of which number fourteen have been recalled for amend ment. The Governor has signed thir ty-live. —The people back of the Gibboney plan for compensation for business knocked out by local option or pro hibition have been demanding a hear ing and it is understood that Chairman Williams will grant it next week.

William Jennings Bryan Once Again Announces His Presidential Aspirations Washington. D. C.. April 9. —Secre- tary Bryan will take the lead in the light against the liquor interests. He prom'ised to-day to go into Pennsyl vania to make speeches next year for local option. He is more interested in the antiliquor movement than any issue of the many that he has adopted. If his duties permit, Secretary Bryan will begin his light in Ohio this year. To-day he promised Ohio Democratic leaders to take the stump in that State for State-wide prohibition. If he cannot go, he said he would write a letter to the people of that State favor ing the issue. Mr. Bryan, it is said by keen po litical observers, is taking up this issue, in which he is undoubtedly sincerely and devoted interested, in the hope, if the situation should properly develop, of being the Democratic candidate for President in liflfi. Mr. Bryan said to-day to a Philadel phia admirer that the biggest question before the American people was the liquor problem. His activity in this direction goes to show that he is either preparing to become either a candi date for the fourth titne for President or to enlarge his lecture Held.

WIIV III', KKIT A SEHVAXT In the days when lie was superin tendent of the Portsmouth dockyard in England, Lord Fisher, the present Admiral of the British Fleet, had the sea-dog attitude toward the men; he frequently treated them with all the harshness of a whaling captain; they, in turn, treated him with a half friendly, half-hostile familiarity. Several years after his Portsmouth days, Fisher visited one of his old as soqiates of the forecastle who was then living on half pay. He found the old man comfortably settled In a cot tage, attended by another superan nuated seaman. "Why do you have this other man here?" asked the Admiral. "1 keep 'im 'ere," said the pen sioner, "to come into my quarters at five o'clock in the mornln' an' sing out 'Hi there! the Hadmtral wants to see you.' At that I merely rolls over in my bed anil says, 'Tell Old Fisher to go to 'ell.' " —"World's Work" for April.
