    NEW QUARANTINE
AMENDMENT OUT
Illinois Cattle May Go Through
Pennsylvania, but Can Not i
Linger Here
' The State Livestock Sanitary Board
last night made public an amendment
to its quarantine orders against Illinois
on account of foot and mouth disease
in which changes are made in accord
ance with the federal regulations.
The new order becomes effective on |
November 1 and reads:
"No cattle, sheep, other ruminants;
or swine that originate in any part of
the State of Illinois under federal ,
quarantine will be permitted to be un
loaded in Pennsylvania for any pur- j
pose.
"Cattle, sheep, other ruminants or
swine that originate in the State of !
Illinois under federal 'restricted' quar- j
antine and handled in accordance with ,
federal regulations will be permitted
lo be shipped through, but not un
loaded in. Pennsylvania.
"No cattle, sheep, other ruminants j
or swine that originate in the State of >
Illinois under federal 'closed,' 'exposed' ;
or 'modified' quarantine will be per- j
mitted to enter or pass through Penn
sylvania for any purpose.
"This regulation supersedes amend- j
reient 4, effective October 13, 1915.'''

adopted. The State has been thor-1
oughly organized by the suffrage I
forces. There is every assurance that j
the vote on the question will be large; |
much larger than that ever before cast j
on a constitutional amendment. All j
over the State men who are leaders of
thought are avowed advocates of the
suffrage cause. Whatever opposition
ther-> is comes almost entirely from a
few interests inherently opposed to
women voting.
All these conditions, and many
others, each one highly important in
itself, indicates the adoption of
Amendment No. 1 Political observers
of long experience agree with this |
view.
Campaign Well Organized
The New Jersey election was a
turning point in the Pennsylvania]
campaign. For months at the State!
headquarters of the Pennsylvania
Woman Suffrage Association here, and
in county and community suffrage or
ganizations all over the State, a steady
constructive campaign, which had for
its primary purpose carrying the suf
frage amendment to the individual
voters, has been going on. Influential
men were induced 1o take active part,
in locftl campaigns. Granges, church)
governing bodies and subordinate so
cieties. labor unions, municipal im
provement clubs and many other kinds
of organizations were brought within
the influence of the movement Withl
such success that a mere enumera-j
tlon of the bodies that have formally j
endorsed suffrage and pledged the sup-1
port of their members at the polls j
would occupy the better part of an j
ordinary newspaper column.
While this was going on. a suffrage
was built up that forj
reach, responsiveness;
and effectiveness far excels everything;
of the kind ever attempted among!
women in this country. All this was!
accomplished quietly. There was no I
sensationalism nor the slightest sug-1
gestion of militancy.
BOWMAN EARNED
$84,000 SURPLUS
tContinued From First Page.]
until after my election In the early
part of November. This sum was put
at interest before I took the oath of ,
office, and therefore I claim no credit
for it. other than that the money was
not invested until after a change in
the administration of the water de
partment became apparent. Accord
ing to all existing reports of the water
department, if any surplus was put at
interest to earn money for the people j
previous to that time, there is nothing 1
to show it.
"However. I did say, and I repeat. j
♦liar on April 6. 1915, in my annual
report, read in Council, as appears on ,
page 7 of the. printed pamphlet, I l
asked Council to direct the Sinking!
Fund Commission, of which Mayor i
Koyal, W. l>. Gorgas and Owen M. j
Copelln were and are now members, I
to Invest at interest for the taxpayers!
$60,000 of the surplus earnings, the
total of which was $84,000. which left.)
me an ample reserve fund of $24,000 ]
for emergencies. 1
"I knew that the sooner this was
put on interest the more it would earn
for the taxpayers. Notwithstanding
this and subsequent reminder, this
money was not put at interest by the
Sinking Fund Commission until Sep
tember. Due to this carelessness, the
taxpayers lost the interest that would
have been otherwise earned during
about five months. In other words,
the city lost approximately SI,OOO be
cause my recommendation was not
promptly adopted.
"With reference to the 1913 report
of the water department. The Patriot
says that there was a net cash earning
of $93,592.31. This, however, did not
include State tax on loans of $2,511.20.
It also did not include the sinking

fund of $36,868.38. The total main
tenance eharse was $87,526.67, which
makes a total of $148,307. Deducting
this from the total cash received of
$204,030.98. shows a net earning of
$5?.202.78. which is the true net cash
earning for that year, instead of
$!<3,592.31. This may he found on
page 64 of the 1913 report.
"Compare this true net earning with
tlie true net earning of the department
for the first year of my administration,
allowing algo for several reductions in
water rates and rents, and you will
find that, as set forth on page 20 of
the 1914 water department report, a
not balance in my favor of $84,441.65
as I originally claimed.
"This is my final statement during
this campaign. The facts as above
set forth are correct, as the printed
reports will show, and it is not my
purpose to engage in any further fruit
less controversy on the subject. The
intelligent voter has the figures. He
can judge for himself."
City Treasurer Copclin stated to
day that the SIIO,OOO to which refer
ence was made as not having been
placed at interest was a misrepresen

was at interest when Mr. Bowman
took office. Mr. Bowman explains the
circumstances in his foregoing: state

GOVERNOR ASKS
HOW HE RAISED IT
Sends Letter to Champion Corn
Grower With Request For
Real Information
Governor Martin G. Brumbaugh ha»
asked Frank Rimel, of Downing

the champion corn grower of Penn
sylvania, to kindly tell him how he
raised 148 bushels of corn on one acre
of land so that he can Impart the in
formation to the farmers of the Key
stone State.
The Governor a few days ago re
ceived a medal from San Francisco in
scribed for Mr. Rimel as the cham
pion corn grower. There had been a
national competition and the Penn
sylvania honors went to the Chester
county man. The Governor has been
suffering from a cold or he says ho
would have gone to present the medal.
In his letter the Governor says:
"I beg to advise you that the Na

tlonal Top Notch Farmers' Club,
through its secretary, has forwarded
to me a medal of merit, suitably In
scribed with your name, and which I
am asked ,to present to you as the top
notch corn grower of Pennsylvania,
having produced 148 bushels of corn
on one acre of land. I beg to suggest
that it will be a source of pleasure
and profit to the farmers of Pennsyl

make known through the public press
the method adopted by you In produc
