HOW TO VOTE REPUBLICAN
NONPARTISAN AND NEW
HIGH SCHOOL LOAN TICKETS
Republican voters l of Dauphin
Jounty who desire to vote a straight
ticket, to insure a correct marking of
the ballot at to-morrow's election,
ihould put a cross mark in the square
kfter the word Republican in the first
column on the ballot.
This will mean a vote for the Re
publican Presidential olectors. It will
thereby mean a vote for Charles E.
Hughes for President of the United
States.
This one cross mark in the square
after the word Republican will not
inly mean a vote for Hughes and Fair
banks, but will also mean a vote for
ivery candidate nominated at the pri
anaries as a Republican, including
Philander C. Knox, for United States
Senator; Harmon M. Kephart, for
State Treasurer; Charles A. Snyder,
tor Auditor General; the Republican
landidates for Copgressmen-at-Large,
*nd Congressmen, and Representatives
in the General Assembly.
The names of twelve parties are
(numerated in this first column on the
ballot, that of the Republican party
being THIRD in the list, that of the
Democratic party first and that of the
Washington party second.
A voter who places his cross mark
tn the party square, in order to vote
i straight ticket, MUST NOT make
iny mark opposite the name of any j
individual candidate, except in the
nonpartisan column. The jitney vote
Mil be on a separate ballot.
This is the way to mafk a ballot to
rote the straight Republican ticket.

his best for the order, but said that
much depended upon the co-operation
of his fellow members. Joseph Schi

ures officially claim that the Demo

Chairman Don F. Monahan will

road president of the West, in discuss
ing the Railroad Y. M. C. A. made this
discriminating statement as to the
value of its work:
"The Association has ameliorated
the harsh and demoralizing conditions
to which trainmen, away from home,
were subjected thirty years ago. It
has afforded them recreative stir
roundii\gs, morally clean, physically
healthful, companionable and socially
pleasant, with all the means for intel
lectual and spiritual development.
This is in striking contrast to the only
places of resort of the past—the sa

some more vicious and baleful envir
onment.

"The experelnce and observation of
all, under whose notice the work of
this organization has come, are that it
has been most effectual and helpful in
raising the standard of manhood,
i his has been reflected in better care
and attention to their families, in
kindlier consideration of their fellow
men, and in more faithful and effi
cient service in the duties assigned
them. The personnel of the men, as
we come in contact with them, at
tests these commendable traits, which
show that the work of tho association
lias not been confined to the mere
physical comfort of its individual
members, but has been extended to
the awakening and development of
tnelr better and finer spiritual and In
tellectual natures. As a result of this,
believe, we have a higher concept of
loyalty to tho interest served.

sense of due responsibility for the

trusted to him, without at the same

and in his relations with his fellow

Large Car Orders
Inquiries for approximately 20,000
cars of all types were placed last week,
up to the close of business yesterday,
by railroads throughout the country,
as a result of the extraordinary de

call for an expenditure of several mil
lion dollars, it was estimated in finan
cial cycles here yesterday, and deliv
eries are to be made as soon as possi
ble, BO that the present unprecedented
shortage in cars may be allayed to a
certain extent.
. the Pennsylvania and Phila
delphia and Reading systems have or
ders in for several thousand cars, and
now the Baltimore and Ohio railroad
has ordered 2,000 from the Mt. Ver
non Car Company. With this heavy
demand for railroad equipment, steel
car producing companies will be kept
busy on these orders alone for many
months. Some of the Pennsylvania's
orders have been placed with the com

New York, Nov. fi.—The national

to-day receiving final reports <yi the
results of their respective campaigns,
but neither had anything to add to
their already published predictions.

COUNCIL DELAYS ACTION
ON GROSS MEASURE
[Continued From First Page]
he doubts if the bids need be rejected
because the ordinance has not been
passed as the measure will very likely
be passed finally next Tuesday.
Concrete Slope Mayor's den
Mayor Meals suggested that action
be held up for a week until it was
ascertained whether or not a better
method of protecting the slopes can
be figured out. He believes the slopes
will not hold the rlp-rapping*fcgainst
the rush of waters this winter if this
work is put through before Spring.
The only safo method, In his opinion,
is to concrete the slopes. This, Lynch
thinks is too costly. Mr. Gorgas says
he is not. opposed to tho rip-rapping
providing this is the best method of
treating it; Mr. Bowman says ho is
not opposed to tho meusure, although
he believes the money should be used
for acquiring additional park as it is
fro mthe fund voted for that purpose
—the park improvement loan—from
which Mr. Gross wants to take the
money. Mr. Lynch declares that he
too is not opposed to the improve
ment, although he believes that time
and money could be saved by waiting
until next Spring to begin the job.
So if the weather man also plays
In with Council, municipal circles
doesn't doubt at all that afty' move
ment to prevent proper treatment of
the slopes will be defeated just as had
been anticipated.
Lynch Loses to Gorgas
The rip-rappina measure was dis
cussed very little to-day but most of
the session was given over to a little
squabble between Mr. Gorgas and Mr.
Lynch as to the method of disposing
of tho accumulated interest in the
various loan sinking funds. And Mr.
Lynch lost out—four to one.
The question was raised when the
Gorgas ordinance authorizing the
transfer of certain accumulated earn
ings of the several sinking funds be
applied toward the ultimate redemp
tion of the bond issues of 1901, 1903
and 1904 was on final reading. These
earnings amount to about $17,563.92.
Mr. Lynch contended that these
earnings should bo applied to the pay
ing of the sinking fund portions, in
terest and State taxes, etc., which
Counoil should bo required to provide
ordinarily in the 1917 budget, and that
by so doing the budget appropriations
could accordingly be cut down that
much. He called for a reading of City
Solicitor Seitz's opinion on the sub
ject to support his contention. Mr.
Gorgas pointe dout that by applying
the accumulated earnings to a fund
for the redemption of the loans In
question, would eventually mean that
the budget would be relieved of the
sinking fund assesmesnts in the year
prior to their maturity; In other words
tha tthe saving in budget appropria
tions would develop in the year be
fore the bonds were to be redeemed
instead of during the coming year.
Council approved of Mr. Gorgas' plan
to thus wipe out the outstanding In

section of highway between Walnut
and North streets. The petition was
headed by Mayor E. S. Meals. Other

ities in obtaining a uniform lighting
system.

Washington Gives Mexico
Friendly Warning of
Presence of Submarines
Washington, D. C.. Nov. 6. The
American government has Informed
ihe de facto government that, precau.
lions should be taken to prevent any
violation of Mexico's neutrality by op
era! lon of belligerent submarines
within its territorial waters or the
establishment of a submarine base on
the Mexican coast. The Information
was conveyed, a State Department of
ficial said to-day, In a wholly friendly
spirit and not at the suggestion of any
of the entente powers.
State Department officials realized
that, if Germany hegan a widespread
campaign of commorce raiding as was
believed possible at the time the sub
marine XI-53 attacked allied shipping
off the New England coast, it might be
extended to Mexico. The great fill
fields there, the principal source of
fuel oil for British war vessels. It was
thought, might attract German sub
marines for the purpose of-destroying
tank steamers carrying oil to enemy
warships. •
It was said to-day tho Mexican gov
ernment is without sufficient means to
Insure protection of Its neutrality and
that It might be comparatively easy
for a foreign power to establish a sub
marine base at some unsuspected
point along that coast.

man reports of disaffection in certain
districts and calls for help from com
mitteemen who believe their districts
in doubt, but there is nothing like
that doing to-day. The Republican
party will sweep the city and county
to-morrow. It is all over but the
voting."

will come down to the mountains

whole ticket," he declared to-day.
