Pass. Charles N". Shaver, Hershev M. Miljer and Professor How ard Wert united in predicting the loan would fro through if the public was made fully aware of the situation After the meeting a statement was prepared at the business session. In it ihe Walnut Street Bridge Associa tion said it was advocating a bridge, not from political motives but because the improvement was an absolute necessity. In addition to costing less to build than to -widen the Market street subway, the statement said, the bridge would provide a connecting link with the Cumberland Valley, a boon for the outlying district north and east. The bridge, they think would also solve all Hilll traffic and pedestrian prob lem s. Another argument advanced is the constant danger to women and children who are forced to climb the lonesome State street hill at night. Conditions are getting so had. a member of the committee said that even men hesitate to climb it late at night. The com mittee claims the bridge would offer a direct route to Reservoir Park ancf would mean ready access to the Har risburg. East Harrisburg. Jewish and Lincoln cemeteries.

CRITCHFIELD Who retire to-day as Secretary of Agriculture X. B. Critehfield. who retires to-day as Secretary of Agriculture, has a host of friends in Harrisburg and is one of the best-known agricultural au thorities in Pennsylvania. Mr. Criteh field, whose term expired last Spring, but who had consented to serve until the selection of a successor, was not a candidate for reappointment. Secretary Critehfield has had a long and interesting career. He -was born in Somerset county. Pa., July 20, IS3S, and was educated in the public and normal schools of his native county and at the Ohio University, located at Athens, Ohio. On the 9th of June. 1859, he was married to Eliza Jane Burn worth, who is also a native of Somerset county. The first two years of his business life were devoted to teaching. In 1862, he entered the Union Army in the war of the Rebellion, his first service being with the One Hundred and Seventy-first Pennsylvania Militia, a nine months' regiment. At the close of his first term of service he entered the Twenty-eighth Pennsylvania Vol unteers with which regiment he served until the close of the war. Upon his return from the army in 1865 he again took up the profession of teaching, and the following Spring he was elected to the office of county superintendent of public schools of Somerset county. Before the close of his term of serv ice as county superintendent he pur chased a farm in his native township, since which time he has devoted his attention almost entirely to farming, leaving the farm only as he has been temporarily called by his fellow citi zens to other lines of work. He has always been a devoted friend of the cause of education and he regards his work in connection with the establish l| I J J I We do not claim to make the only good candy; but manufacturing as we do, we can absolutely guaran tee the quality, the purity, and the freshness of our sweets.

In 1593, he was appointed by the National Commission of the World's Columbian Exposition a member of the board of judges in the Department of Agriculture, and upon the organi zation of the board he was elected vice-president. The president the board, who was dean of the Agricul tural College of Russia, was called home shortly after the board began its work and the chairmanship de volved upon Mr. Critchfield. The sat isfactory manner in which he con ducted the business of the board was attested by the fact that the Com mittee on Awards endeavored to make arrangement with him to go to Wash ington at the close of the exposition and prepare for publication a full history of the agricultural exhibit at the great fair.

Income Tax "at the Source" May Be Killed Sfecial to The Telegraph Washington. D. C., Oct. 15. The "withholding clause" of the Federal in come tax law is under heavy tire in the United States Supreme Court. Able lawyers who heard the arguments yes terday and the comments of the Jus tices admit they would not be surprised if the Court held tfcat feature to be unconstitutional. Otherwise the law seems able to withstand successfully attacks from eminent counsel. The attacking law yers have admitted In open court that they are not contending that an income tax. as such. Is unconstitutional, but they charge that the present law is a discriminatory statute and therefore class legislation and that the opera tion of the "withholding clause," under which tiie Government appears to be taking private property for public use without just compensation. Is in viola tion of the dnp process clause of the Federal Constitution and that feature ought to fall. The comments from the bench were not favorable to the law In the argu ments yesterday. John C.
