SENATE, PENROSE BATTLE-CRY [Continued from first Page.] tosh, president of the club, presided as toastmaster. and 600 political leaders and chieftains of industry and busi ness attended the largest affair of its kind the Americus Club has ever held. Senator Penrose spoke of the grow ing vision of Republican success in the national campaign next year and pitched his talk in the general note of harmony in the party. Predicts Republican Victory After reviewing the military and civil career of General Grant, Sen ator Penrose said: "We need to-day in the affairs oi the nation and in the legislative propo sitions which have been advanced in recent yeiirs a strong application of the common sense of Grant in dealing with matters of government. Dema gogic agitation and a crop of eco nomic heresies, as vicious in some re spects as the greenback heresy which Grant destroyed, have been stirring discontent among high and low, rich and poor. These heresies, perhaps, were the luxurious experimenting un der conditions of too much prosperity. "After a period of unrivaled and extraordinary prosperity and develop-" ment during the eighteen years of Re publican admllnetration under three Presidents the American people came to want a change. Evils In the body politic, social and industrial, were mis represented, exaggerated or invented. "Owing to an unfortunate division In the Republican party, which is now happily passing away, the Democratic party was successful in the last presi dential election. The people have had the change, they have had a brief experience with the Underwood free trade tariff policy. They have felt the humiliation of the policy of watchful ■waiting. They have seen business paralyzed by hostile legislation of Con gress. and now they are waiting for the coming opportunity in 1916 to register their verdict by an over whelming majority in favor of Repub lican policies and a restoration of protection and prosperity and com mon sense in legislation. "It will be generally admitted by persons conversant with the basic movements of finance and industry Sutch Bros. CONTRACT PAINTERS 446 Delaware Ave., City. All work guaranteed. Lowest prices in city. TRY US. WEDNESDAY EVENING. that there has been only one cause which has saved the nation from utter and disastrous business demoralization, and that has been the war In Europe. If it had not been for that war we would have witnessed a situation in this country compared with which the condition under Cleveland's second ad ministration would have been insig nificant. The war for the time being has postponed the financial and indus trial collapse, just as It has saved our government from a humiliating and embarrassing situation of the gravest character on account of the policy of watchful waiting in Mexico. Control of Next Congress "I take it that it is generally con ceded that the next House of Repre sentatives will be Republican by a substantial majority. Perhaps had a vigorous effort been put forth the present House of Representatives would be Republican. Most certainly would It have been Republican had it not been for the war in Europe, which distracted public attention and alle viated industrial conditions. "When the day of reckoning comes, as it is rapidly approaching, let there be no doubt in the minds of the people as to who has been responsible for the policies which have brought the coun try to the condition in which it is. Moreover. I think any intelligent po litical observer will admit that the Republican party is as certain to elect the next President of the United States as anything can be certain in public affairs. But after all, the Republicans will not be fully restored to power in a way In which they can bring about effective results, such as the imme diate repeal of the present free trade tariff law and other remediaj and amendatory legislation, together with the resumption of a vigorous foreign policy, unless the Republicans have control of the Senate of the United States. "In the election last November, by reason of lack of attention on the part of some central organization and on account of factional and local compli cations. the Republicans lost three senatorial seats to which they ordi narily would be entitled. The Demo-» cratic majority, therefore, which was in the last Congress amply sufficient in most cases, has been Increased by these votes, and the task of building up a Republican majority in the next Con gress at the presidential election of 1916 is Increased to that extent. Attacks Democratic Rule "And here I want to say that never have the principles of the Constitution of the United States been more grossly violated than by the legislative meth ods adopted in the United States Sen ate, In the House of Representatives and by the President under the present Democratic regime. "But to return to the importance of acquiring Republican control of the United States Senate . Thirty-two sen ators are to come up for election in 1916. "Now I come to the important fea tures of the situation. The following States are now represented by Demo crats in the Senate, who can be re placed by Republicans in the elections of 1916: Arizona, Indiana, Maine, Maryland, Missouri, Montana. Ne braska. Nevada, New Jersey, New York, Ohio and West Virginia. "An examination of conditions In these States, and the information ob tained In the elections in some of these States last November, confirms the be lief that in a Republican tidal wave there is none of the States above men tioned In which there la not a reason able prospect of electing a Republican senator. One State, Washington, is now represented by a Progressive in the Senate, and It is more than likely that whoever comes there from this ( State in the next Congress will be a Republican. "With twenty-five Republicans hold ing over and twenty-seven to be elected in 1916, the total is fifty-two, a majority of eight In the Senate. Conceding that of the Republicans holding over three at most might not always vote with the Republicans, al though more likely to do so after 1916 j than heretofore, the fact still remains . that with twenty-seven Republicans I elected to the Senate in 1916, even if I the three in question should occa- i sionally vote with the Democrats, the i result would be forty-nine Republicans and forty-seven in opposition, or a Re publican majority of two." Slaps at (Governor Mr. McClain In his speech said: "Animated as the Governor is by thoroughly conscientious motives, pos sessing as he does high Ideals, sterling integrity and absolute sincerity of pur pose. I. In common with others, must refuse to credit him with omniscience. T must refuse to subscribe to an abso lutism which desires that a personal program in legislation shall not have an 'l' dotted or a 't' crossed by the members of that branch of govern ment to which the Constitution allots legislation. "I must refuse to agree that the manufacturers and producers of Penn sylvania shall be put in the same category as burglars, bank breakers and barn burners. "Instead, as Republicans, of enact ing 'industrial' legislation in a form that will put brakes on business, our effort should be to take off the brakes. "Certain gentlemen and certain newspapers in the last campaign ar rayed against the Republican ticket would have us believe that the legis lative branch should degenerate into a mere registering device to carry out the executive will. They have insisted in connection with what might be called Industrial legislation—work men's compensation, child labor and a ta>: on manufacturing corporations— that the Republican party should pre sent the anomaly at Harrisburg of that which Republicans have been so vociferously denouncing at Washing ton. lam very happy to say there are Indications that somebody will have the courage to throw the switch and avert the wreck." McClain's remarks aroused mixed feelings. Many cheered, but a good many frowned. READY TOTAYTAST STRETCHES OF WALK [Continued from First Page.] complete, excellent time having been made on this section of the job by foreman Frank Williams. Mr. Wil liams expects to push the job ahead with equal speed on the section be tween "Hardscrabble" and Market street so that the stretch will be com pleted. it is hoped, within five or six weeks. July 1 is the time specified In the, agreement between the Board of Pub lic Works and the contractors for the (completion of the whole job although llt Is possible that it may run several i weeks or a month longer to abridge | the gap at Market street with the con i tlnulng line of steps as had been de cided upon by Commissioner W. H. Lynch and the board. The Credit Job By July 1, it is expected, the Paxton creek Improvement—the one other big Job that is nearlng completion—will be ready to turn over to the city. Com missioner Lynch, in urging Council HARRISBURG l£g§6& TELEGRAPH yesterday to allow the West Construc tion Company's claim for an advance estimate, declared that the contractor's loss will run to approximately 110,000, but it was said to-day that the actual loss will approach nearer $25,000. Refore the city releases the river wall contractors lor construction of the "steps" considerable repair work will have to be done by Stucker Broth ers. This consists In the main of patching where chunks of the concrete had been chipped out l>y boys and other vandals who rolled rocks down the embankment or otherwise dam aged the improvement work. About a thousand feet of the top section of concrete will have to be placed on the river dam by the engi neers of the Board of Public Works. This work will be resumed as soon as the liver recedes sufficiently and will require* possibly two weeks. TO BUY PLAYGROUND AT STH AND EMERALD [Continued from First Page.] Pittsburgh." These, he says, have of fered the city several acres of Hoff man's Woods at $4,000 an acre. Despite the fact that the local agent for the estate which owns the ground is said to have repeatedly declared that no offer will be forthcoming. Mayor Royal has insisted for several weeks that he expects the terms in writing. The Mayor and Commissioner Tay lor had a busy little verbal passage at-arms over the playground ordinance yesterday afternoon. The ground will be brought for $14,700. The Mayor objected to the location, although he said he no longer questioned the price. Commissioner Taylor declared that the Hoffman's Woods site was entirely too far out of the way of the chil dren in the section of Harrisburg which the playground is intended to benefit. When the Mayor Agrees "This is something that is for the benefit of the children only and will be for years to come," he said. "It is something they want and need. So, while I believe like any other council man, in saving all possible for the city, this is an instance to my mind where money would be judiciously expended. What difference does a few dollars make In a case like this when we have, or should have, the interests of the children of the city at heart?" said Commissioner Taylor. In conclusion Mr. Taylor pointed out that Vjarren H. Manning, the city's park expert, had approved of the site. "Well, Mr. Manning's views and my view's don't always agree," quickly said the Mayor. "Only when it suits you," retorted Mr. Taylor. "Then you don't hesitate I to quote and use his opinions." Expect 100 to Hear Cunningham Talk on Insurance Problems Acceptances for the noonday lunch eon of the Harrisburg Chamber of Commerre to-morrow were on the In crease to-day. It is expected that 100 members will hear the talk by ex- Deputy State Attorney General Jesse E. B. Cunningham. His subject will be. "The Business Man and His Fire Insurance." Announcement was made by Secre tary E. L. McColgin of the Harrisburg Chamber of Commerce that William Robinson', president of the Harrisburg Roard of Underwriters and other members of the board have been in vited to attend the luncheon. HUNDREDS OF PENNA. GIRLS IN N. Y. DENS [Continued from First I'agc.] Mr ' 9HL • |Bn * IHHHHQ^BL MISS ROSE LIVINGSTON "Angel of Chinatown" Tells of Penn sylvania Girls Held in White Slavery in New York. questioned by newspapermen as to just \yhat she knew concerning vice conditions in Pennsylvania and how she figured granting women the bal lot would tend to alleviate them. In response to the first question Miss Livingston said: "I know more about vice conditions in New York than in Pennsylvania. But I do know that of the 500 girls (I have res<ned in my nine years of work in Chinatown, 200 came fi-om Pennsylvania. All of them were very young. Their a«es ranged from IO to 16. None of them (lad grown up yet. Four of these girls came from Easton, six from Reading, nine from Pittsburgh, nearly a hun dred froift Philadelphia and the rest from smaller cities and towns. Says Woman's Vote Is Needed "As to suffrage stamping out vice— we know that prostitution cannot ever really be stopped except through edu cation. Rut we also know that we can stop the supply of girls and save the unwilling victims by stricter legisla tion. We need the women's votes to get this legislation. The women of the Western States proved that legislation could wipe out commercialized vice. In'-Oregon, Washington and California prostitution practically does not exist to-day. The women of these equal franchise States not only passed the 'injunction and abatement' law. which holds the owners of propertv respon sible for the use of their buildings for Immoral purposes, but they are seeing that It is enforced. "Some of the vile interests in San Francisco actually had the efTronterv to propose erecting houses especially for prostitution, near the Panama-Pa cific fair grounds. The women told them that if they built the houses, they, the women would see that the law tore them down. Thev were not built." One persistent Interviewer asked i Miss Livingston why she was so sure . APRIL 28, 1915. woman suffrage would work for good and not for harm. l)o W omen Urjrc Wrong? "Have you ever known a case where women got up an agitation in favor of anything that was wrong?" she asked. "Have you ever known them to storm a legislature and lobby for the protec tion of vice and vicious interests? You know_„well that they never have. And these vicious interests know that the women will never be on their side. Look at the enemies of woman suffrage. Look at the thousands of dollars being spent by the white-slav ers and their friends to defeat suffrage. How do you explain that kind of op position if woman suffrage is not the power for good that its supporters claim it to be?" Talks Here Friday Miss Livingston will speak on un derworld conditions here on Friday. She will deliver two talks at the Tech nical high school under the auspices of the local suffragists. The afternoon talk will be limited to women only. In the evening she will speak to a mixed audience. Admission will be free. Mrs. John Oenslager, chairman of the Wo man Suffrage party of Harrisburg, will preside at both meetings.
