REGAIN U. S. 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

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.

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."

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 from Easton, six from Reading,
nine from Pittsburgh, nearly a hun

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

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
