THIS IS THE SPIRIT »T"\HE spirit of the celebration has been demonstrated in many In teresting ways, as, for example, this notice at the entrance of the Railroad Men's T. M. C. A. buildirg yesterday: Notice We are down on the river bank helping to celebrate Greater Harnsourg. Come on down and help. Respectfully, F. H. GREGORY, Secretary. Good old Harrisburg is fortunate <n the character of the men and womsn who are making it grow and flourish ar.il beautiful for all our people. MAY IT ALL COME TRUE WE don't always agree with ex-Mavor Vance C. McCormick, but we hope that he and all who heard his prophecy of the future Harrisburg may live to see the dream n reality. That great memorial free bridge over the Susquehanna at Mar ket street, the modern hotel, an ar tistic subway under the railroad at Market street and the great avenues leading east and west and north and south from the center of the city are some of the things which should easily be realized during the next decade. Governor Brumbaugh paid a tribute to Spencer C. Gilbert and his colleagues of the Capitol Park Extension Commis sion. They have done so well that all Harrisburg should rejoice In the near completion of their labors. THE WHY OF IT THE United States Is at peace. Italy is at war. Yet the revenues of the United States are diminishing, while those of Italy are Increasing. The treasury receipts of Italy for July and August were $7,700,000 more than for the same months last year. The treasury receipts of the United States decreased more than $15,000,000 In the same time. Italy Is at war. The United States Is at peace. But Italian war is not so bad for the national treasury as Wilson's peace Is. Why? Because of the Democratic legislative and administrative mistakes. Good evening, Mr. Hopkins! You have been rather modest about your part in the big show, but when it's all over the people will give you and all the other good fellows who have been doing the heavy work a pat on the back and the best of all commendation —"You're all right!" PERHAPS! THE President's aloofness to ward an endorsement for re-elec tion by the Democrats of New Jersey may be on account of his devotion to the one - term plank of the Baltimore platform —and again It may not. The Presi dent showed great sensitiveness about his being bound by the platform when the women wanted him to take up the suffrage question. Perhaps he intends to adhere to all the declarations of that famous document—including the one-term Idea. We say perhaps! The Telegraph's suggestion for an annual school parade has been univer sally endorsed. That pageant of yes terday has started everybody to think ing and they are thinking along con structive lines. First of all must come that dignified Central high school build ing as a feature of the further develop, ment of the civic center now being created in connection with the Capitol Park Extension zone. KUROPATKIN ONCE MORE IF the report is true which comes to us from Petrograd, by way of Ber lin and Sayvllle, that actual com mand of the Russian military forces Is now In the hands of Minister of War Pollvanoff and General Kuropatkin, then Hindenberg, Mackenson and the oilier German commanders, who have been having things pretty much their own way, will soon meet an opponent who In every way is worthy of their •teel. That Is to say, they will, unless Fate Is preparing to play another sardonic trick on the Russian strategist by end- SATURDAY EVENING, HARRISBURG !|§sj§& TELEGRAPH SEPTEMBER 25, T9TS. Ing the war just before he Is prepared to try issues on his own terms. That is what happened to him in the wur between Russia and Japan. During the last few months of that great conflict surface Indications were that the Japs had things all their own way. Indeed, it was not until several years after the Treaty of Portsmouth went into effect that the outside world was permitted to learn that Japan really was dangerously close to the end of Its resources. Military men who have carefully gone into the actual situation have said that had another battle been fought Kuropatkin In all probability would have Inflicted a serious reverse on the uniformly vic torious Oyama. As matters stood Kuropatkin saved the Russian army and was rapidly restoring it to a condition of efficiency. It was generally felt that If he had been called to supreme command earlier the war would have had an entirely different result. If there is any man In Russia who can now restore confidence and place the military forces upon a basis where they will again be a real factor in the great war it Is he. Old Greece had nothing on little old Harrisburg yesterday. When those Tech champions, with their laurei wreaths and a beautiful goddess on top of passed by one could shut his eyes and see the returning heroes In the Grecian metropolis. THE GOVERNOR WITH US GOVERNOR BRUMBAUGH struck a responsive chord In his ad dress on Thursday evening when he said he hoped to make the Capitol Park Extension area the "most beauti ful and attractive spot In all Pennsyl vania." Harrisburg has never been content with Capitol Park as it stands to-day, and It has gone to the length of do nating to the State the streets run ning through that section as well as standing the loss of revenue from taxation on twenty-seven acres of real estate in the heart of the city In order that the State Capitol may have a proper setting. It has shown Penn sylvania that we of Harrisburg are ready and willing to spend our own money to make the Capitol City repre sentative of the imperial Common wealth of which It Is the governmental center and it is gratifying and for tunate to have a man in the guberna torial chair whose vision is as broad as that of the men who are planning the bigger, better Harrisburg that just beyond the horizon of the future. Governor Brumbaugh is' "with us" for the Improvement of Harrisburg. Not only that, but he believes that our people should have a voice In the development of the State's property here. He desires that the new Capitol Park shall be made to flt into and be a part of the great park sys tem now in the process of creation here. He has confidence in Harris burg's understanding of her own problems and her ability to solve them. And he will not be disap pointed. Harrisburg wants nothing unreasonable from the State only the proper co-operatton of the Com monwealth in the development of the Capitol Park area. Governor Brumbaugh is ready to give us that to the full measure of his ability and power. The city is fortunate, we re peat, in having a man of his broad, constructive ideas in the gubernatorial chair at this critical period. THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE STAND up, Henderson Gilbert and Donald McCormick and Secretary McColgin and all the rest of you Chamber of Commerce live wires! You have' shown to ' the citizenry'; of this prosperous city that you are In tune with the spirit and' the purpose and the aspirations of the community. What a fine job you have made of this big celebration of the city's regen eration and how everybody has co-op erated with you! We're all behind you and you can't stop if you wanted to, but you're not built that way. MAKING GOOD ADD Governor Philipp, of Wis consin, to the list of Republican executives who have made good. Coming into office on a pledge of economy, the Governor has reduced the expenses of the State by nearly $4,000,000. Things like that alwaj'3 happen under Republican rule. Dr. Downes and Dr. Fager and Dr. Dibble and all you other principals and superviors and teachers, our hats are j off to you. It was a fine and Impressive demonstration and the people of Har risburg will give you anything that you ought to have in the way of equipment for the good work you are doing for the boys and girls of the city. It's going to be some night to-night, but let everyone remember that his neighbor deserves consideration and let us be good natured about It all and conclude the celebration In a great wave of harmony. Well, are you girding on your armor and preparing for the next step for ward? If ytfu are not, you are out of step. Get in line! Governor Brumbaugh has demon strated anew his constructive ability. He has linked arms with Father Har ris and together they will move for ward in the development of a great civ ic center right in the heart of the city. It's good to have these fine relations between the State and the city. Of course, we're going to have a Harrisburg Regatta Association and an annual carnival on the Susquehanna basin. After yesterday you couldn't I restrain the people of Harrisburg in making; the right use of their recre ation facilities on the bosom of the river— ' It's a glorious record of the last few years of the city's development, but it's Just a big beginning. There is much yet to do and the people are here to do It. If you haven't seen the floats an chored off Walnut street and showing the work of the City Planning Com mission, the City Forester and the De partment of Parks, you ought to see them. There Is much In this festival week to make us think and to-morrow will be a good time to go Into the churches and thank the Great Architect of the universe for having permitted us to live In this day and generation with its great privileges and opportunities and blessings. I What a great part the enterprising 1 merchants have had in the celeration! Their stores have been brilliant with lights and such an exposition of modern merchandising methods as must have been a revelation to the thousands of visitors. These -merchants and com mercial leaders are keeping step with the progress of the city and they de serve the solid support of the com munity. 'pottfctc* tK "Pouvoii(«*utZa By tlie Ex-Committeeman Officials of the State Department, v»ho have been inundated with queries regarding the operation of the 50 per cent, of the vote sole nominee clause of the nonpartisan acts, will likely ask the opinion of the Attorney Gen eral If there is danger of any serious "mixup" In any of the judicial con tests. The department Is not making any rulings on the laws. Judging from the tone of some of the inquiries which hf.ve been made at the Capitol, there will probably be some actions brought in common pleas courts by candidates who object to the manner In which the act Is being interpreted in their home districts. The official counts began In the counties yesterday, but no one at the Capitol expects the official result for the state to be known for ten days at tHfc least. In former primary contests Involving nominations for State oflioeo it hat been two weeks before anything definite could be known as to results. A striking illustration of that was fur nished two years ago in the contest for the Superior Court nominations, vender the law the State authorities can only receive and record the official leturns certified by county commls sjoners and it is a process as slow as ■ he. tabulation of official returns from seneial election'.-. The general belief here is from unofficial figures received that Judges Or.ady and Head will be considered as re-elected to the Superior Court and J. Henry Williams will probably be i ltitsed as elected unless W. D. Wal lace polled a heavier vote in the west a n counties than now seems probable. Senator Penrose yesterday, In commenting upon the large majority in lavor of Thomas B. Smith, for mayor of Philadelphia, said: "The re sult of the primaries in Philadelphia foreshadows a great Republican vic tory, a clean sweep for the whole Re- I publican ticket and a service of notice upon the country that Philadelphia is once more occupying her logical place at the head of the Republican cities of the Union and is the Gibraltar of Republicanism in the great Republican State of Pennsylvania. The Keystone State will this Fall renew her al legiance to the Republican imrty and blaze the way for a Republican vic tory at the national election next year. The primary vote in Philadelphia served to accentuate popular disap proval of the Democratic economic policies and to emphasize loyalty to the principle of protection to Amer ican industries." An arrest, for information sworn to and court orders for a search for missing ballot boxes have resulted from the close contest at Tuesday's primary for the Republican nomina tion for prothonotary, sought by Wil liam B. Kirker and David B. Johns, in Allegheny county. —A declaration yesterday by B. Gordon Bromley, Democratic nominee for mayor of Philadelphia against anv fusion deal with the independents, may be taken as notice of the elimina tion of George D. Porter as a factor in the coming mayoralty contest. Ru dolph Blankenburg was elected mayor by a plurality of less than 4500 votes, with an intense popular sentiment aroused in his interest. He could never have taken the oath of office if he had not had his name upon the Democratic ticket. —The Republican nominees In Westmoreland county have been de cided as follows now that the returns are in: Sheriff, John E. Shields, of Greensburg; treasurer, A. D. Miller, Manor; register of wills. Edward E. Cremer, Greensburg; recorder of deeds Harris S. Miller, New Kensington; county controller, James E. Bell; com missioners, Berkey H. Boyd and W. Dick Reamer; coroner, Dr. James Harkins; county surveyor, Burgess Ross, Ligonier. —Judge John Faber Miller may have opposition after all for election to the court of common pleas of Mont gomery county, and his opponent may be William F. Dannehower, who was next to him in the number of votes received at the primaries on Tues day. Attorney Charles D. McAvoy, acting for Mr. Dannehower yesterday at Norristown called to the attention of the commissioners the act of last June, which, he contended, requires that before a candidate for judge is entitled to be unopposed at the gen eral election he must have received at the primaries "more than one-half of all the ballots cast," not one-half of the votes counted. —Robert D. Dripps, Philadelphia councilman well known to many here, has been named to succeed George D. Porter as director of safety in Phila delphia. —The official count In Lackawanna Democratic primaries shows Repre sentative William Luxemburger to be gaining In the contest for county con troller. It will take the official count to decide. —G. P. Hutt, one of Uniontown's councllmen, got sixty per cent, of the votes and goes on the ballot alone. —J. P. McGinty, Wllkes-Barre's veteran city clerk. Is dead. He served a score or mope of years. —Coatesvllle Is having its first cam paign as a third-class city and the water supply is the big thing in the town. —Cumberland Democrats are now chamdnsr horses In croßsinp a stream and it is doubtful If Finkenbinder can do better as county chairman than did Mentzer.

DEFENSE IN THE BILL OF RIGHTS [Kansas City Times.] Article a of the Bill of Rights of the Constitution of the United States is this: "A well regulated militia being nec essary to the security of a free State, the right Qt the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. One that was a mighty good safe guard for a democratic people. Once the lowa congressman's "million squir rel shooters" would have been a good army—because that would have been all they would likely ever go up against, •squirrel shooters" like themselves. But to-day! The sure way to make the constitu tional safeguard mean nnything is to organize a citizenship arnv. "Bearing arms" to-day is a very different thing from "bearing arms" in 178' J. Arms have been socialized into machine guns howitzers and other engines for trained men. acting together, to use. As the old individual trade tool has been socialized into the power loom and blast furnace, so the implement of effective fighting has been correspond ingly changed. W. I>. Stoddard, writing in the New Republic, points out that the citizens of the United States should be trained to arms and to milltarv defense as the citizens of the Swiss re public are. And this, not onlv for capable defense of their country against a possible foreign enemy, but because a citizenship trained to arms is the best of all defense against the possible use of domestic "militarism" to cen tralize power, along with wealth, in the use of them, among individuals, he Im plies, is as important a problem In this ago as the distribution of wealth. A powerful navy and a capable standing army resting on a reserve citizenship army ready to be quickly supplied and mobilized present them selves as the best modern embodiment of the principle of national defense and self defense guaranteed in Article II of the BUI of Rights.

The per mit was issued by the district forester at Portland. Ore., who has direct su pervision of the Alaskan forests, and is In conformity with the act of March 4 last, which authorized the Secretary Of Agriculture to permit the Alaskan Engineering Commission and the Navy Department to take from the national foreots free of charge earth, stone and timber for use in government works. The timber will be cut in designated areas along the right of way of the proposed railroad, which runs through the Chugach national forest for sev eral miles. Experiments and tests of Alaskan spruce and hemlock are being made at the Forest Service laboratory at Seattle, Wash., and so far have sub stantiated the opinion of foresters that Alaskan timber is sufficiently strong for practically all structural purposes. | LETTERS TO THE EDITOR" THINKING OF THE OLD TOWN Department of the Interior. United States Indian Service, Ponca Indian Agency, AVhlte Eagle, Okla., Office of the Physician. Hon. E. J. Stackpole, The Telegraph, Harrlsburg, Pa. Dear Friend: Two thousand miles from the "Old Home Town," out on the "Wild and Woolly" frontier of Oklaho ma, I want to drop you just a line of ongratulatlons on the part the Tele graph has played during the past years in urging the splendid improvements that have made Harrlsburg a "Home Town" to be proud of. A» one of those who have gone out from Harrlsburg and look back with longing eyes during this week of Joyous celebration, I am sure that her sons, scattered though we may be from coast to coast, yet extend our heartiest con gratulations and good wishes. Harrls burg Is a splendid town and no one appreciates or realizes half of Its many improvements, conveniences and ad vantages until they leave behind them the sparkling Susquehanna and the co*y city nestling along Its pretty banks. So to-day, loyal to the city we once called "Home," our thoughts and fan cies wander back to the "Old H#me Town" and we one and all, I am iiure, wish her "Good Luck" through our "Home Paper." Yours very sincerely. C. LEROY ZIMMERMAN. M. D. CAPE COD CANAL A BUSY WATERWAY An Idea of the value of the Cape Cod Canal to shipping is given in the fact that more than 2,300 vessels have passed through this waterway since It was opened In the summer of 1914, each of these vessels saving something like 70 miles of travel and avoiding the dangerous route around Cape Cod. One of the largest of these vessels was the Tenbergen, a Dutch steamer of 3,826 tons. Many government ves sels have passed through the canal, among these being the submarines K-5 and K-6, which made the trip from Boston to Newport at an average Irate of 11 miles an hour. Only 45 | minutes was required by the two sub | marines in making the passage through the canal.—From the October | Popular Mechanics Magazine. SHOCKING! Henry Ford says he would rather die a pauper than to make a cannon. Willing to "Jolt the life out of the human race," but not willing actually to kill a single human being?— Loui sville Courier-Journal. While these tests are going on Forest Seivice employes in Alaska are" mark ing the timber to be cut along the pro posed railroad, the cutting to be done so that only mature trees are taken, the young trees being left uninjured and the condition of the forest im proved. This cut of 55,000,000 feet will be the largest amount of timber ever felled in the Alaskan forests in one operation, and at the average rate per thousand board feet obtained for tim ber sold from the Chugach forest dur ing the fiscal year 1914 it is worth approximately $145,000 on the stumps. I - , will be nearly twice as much as the total quantity of national forest tim ber now cut and used annually for local purposes throughout Alaska, but only a little more <han one-tenth of the estimated annual growth of the Alaskan forests. The two national for ests of Alaska contain about 78,000,000,000 feet of merchantable timber and it is estimated by the For est Service that more than 800,000,000 feet could be cut every year forever without lessening the forests' pro ductivity. [The State From Day to Dayj A boy in New Castle was recently hauled in by the police for perform ing the very unusual feat of standing in the center of the street and mak ing all the automobiles circle around him. It appears to be a rather queer way of looking for thrills, and some what monotonous, if you were to ask our opinion. The New Castle News tells of a novel way of recording the contagious diseases in the public schools of that place. The school physician devised a chart, into which a bright-colored pin is stuck every time a student is taken from school with any disease. Scar let-headed pins are for scarlet-fever, and green ones for diphtheria, and the doctor can tell at a glance how many students are sick. The waves of influence which go out in increasingly larger circles from Harrisburg as a center representing municipal achievement and unwaver ing advance in civic progress, are ex emplified in an editorial of the Wil liamsport Gazette and Bulletin, in which the city is urged "to hump it self" and "regardless of past mistakes or of future doubts, to feel in our bones that the city is going to grow, and by giving the cold shoulder to the knocker and the glad hand to the booster, STAND TOGETHER AND MAKE WILLI AM SPORT GROW." We congratulate Wllllainsport on her attitude, 'cause we know the feeling. Petor Caspar, a Phlladelphian, has been carrying in minnie ball which lodged in his hip at the battle of Manassas. ever since that famous fight, and only yesterday ivaa it re moved, when he broke his leg and had to be treated. Henceforth he will carry the bullet as a souvenir, but in a different place. SOME VACA i TisSf Where you go / lng to apend your | STxHMIHji Depends on whether you pay me back the f6.00 you ow© me. lEimting (Etfat | The Rev. George P. Schaum, pastoi of Harris Street United Evangelical 'church, paid a high tribute to the libraries of Harrisburg the other day In a sermon to his congregation. Sutd he: "I have been in cities all over the land, but I know of none of its size with such excellent library facilities as we have here, in the State and Hur- _ isburg institutions. Yet I meet peo- » pie who do not know that they may have free of all charge the use of almost any known work by any author. There are those who do not know what the inside of the library looks like. We have right at our el bows the means of a very liberal education if we only take it." One of the inevitable results ol holdtng the water sports yesterday afternoon so far out from the shoro was that the hundreds of canoeists completely forgot that there were peo ple on the front steps of the city who plso wished to sef what was going on. The poor, overworked elearers of the course must have spent much "argent" on gasoline rushing up and down the river and expending breath in at tempting to keep the pathway open for the contestants. The next time everybody will have a better idea of how to handle themselves and the co operation of the spectators in row boats and canoes may be expected when they are given to understand some time before the carnival begins that the promptness with which events are run off and the success of the water sports depend more on their in dividual assistame than on all the plans that the committee in charge may devise. • » • The State's crop of lemons is com mencing to ripen on Capitol Hill. The lemons are about the size of crabapples now and they are turning a bright yellow and also full of bitterness. The crop is raised on three trees just south of the Library building. They stand in a row on the terrace and are right outside the windows of State Librarian Thomas Lynch Montgomery. Tho trees were planted years ago and in spite of care from the gardeners have never amounted to much as producers. They annually bear large numbers of small fruit which range in size from that of an English walnut, to a crab apple and the only value they appear to be is to furnish food for squirrels, which bite into the fruit for the seeds. The fruit sometimes hangs on the trees until late in the Fall as there is a State law against taking anything from the park, even sprigs of trees. The only exceptions to the rule are the squirrels. » « • General E. DeY r .

Complaints have been made against four of the crossings In the borough.

The last of the new furniture which will replace the old heavy articles is expected soon. Tho rugs have been placed and the official home of the Governor looks more like a private residence and less like an apartment house. The red and gold drawing room has been turned into a white room with ivory and gray finish ings and light colored rugs have been placed. The dining room is now finished in mahogany and the famous light mahogany dining table and serv ing table have been tinted dull red. • • » "I heard a friend tell of a record trip between Harrisburg and Steelton a day or so ago," said a man who has a good bit to do with automobiles. "This trip was taken after a lot of bragging about going very fast on tho fine stretch of roadway between this city and the borough. Hfe told me oL' so many minutes between Market Square and Steelton post office. I met him the other day and he said that, he had started for his residence in Steelton two weeks before and had only gotten home.
