HERMAN & CO., Makers FRIDAY EVENING, I Harry F. Bowman. The statement is , as follows: "An Interesting sidelight of pro found interest to all candidates aspir jing to office in the election district (Comprising Harrisburg was announced here to-day by those connected with Labor's Open Forum, which was forthcoming when the vacancy of S City Commissioner was being con , sidtred. "While it is not known who their choice is for the city council, it is however, expected their endorsement will be made known Sunday evening at White's hall. Broad and James y street, when the recommendation of i the Carmen's Union, E C. Hicks, of ? | Division No. 709, and who, it is un ! <lerstooc?, has the backing of the • Pennsylvania State Federation of r ' Labor, will be considered. J "That the concentrated weight of r\ the labor vote will be thrown in'all ! future campaigns, and that they will - S actively participate in the election or 1 defeat of candidates may be gleaned | from the statement made by the Forum representatives that: it is fully | intended to make the Forum so strong j I that when a candidate for office seeks ! vctes, he will in a perfectly logical j i manner come before the Forum to j standi up and be questioned by the j I people—tile voters —in the audience, ! Instead of corning to make a special i 'selected speech and depart. "While this Is a mere phase of the I work of the Forum as laid down by j the Congress of Forum adopted in i New York City, was "the further as surance, of which the objects proper may be thus tersely stated: Popular, 1 education has developed three distinct; j group methods Of acquiring knowl-1 | edge. First and simplest is the! j study class, in which people come to- ] gether to study, and in which imme- j diato individual improvement is the' object. "A second type is the discussion lecture, when people gather to hear j some definite line of thought de veloped by an authority on the sub ject and to discuss it with them. Such ! lectures are most effective when, given I a speaker of prominent and ability, | ! | there is a large group to benefit by : the discussion. I "The Forum has the elements of I both the study-class and the discus [ sion-lecture, and it does much they do ' not. It has the stimulus of the re action of speaker and audience in i ; public addresses on vital questions, ~ and of discussion from the floor. "In addition to that, the message can be carried far beyond the imme , diate audience by press representa tives to catch the news found in 'hls- I tory-in-the-making.' If public opinion ;; is in any measure affected by the ; ' newspaper reports on the day follow ing. it is a big accomplishment. , "The publicity that creates public sentiment is of greater importance than individual educational benefit. It . is power generated inside four walls, transmitted quickly and widely to thousands outside. From a purely • business standpoint, it makes for , popularity and support, overcomes op position. and ultimately draws large numbers. • "It is this big socializing force of creating public sentiment, coming out i of a wide popular knowledge of facts ! that distinguishes the Forum. This j distinction is based on a particular | type of directorship and management, 1 which has as great importance as the ; speech-making itself. s 0 it is not the broadest estimates of values—it is not ; even the point, of greatest importance during the stage of pioneering and de j velopinent—to gauge the force of a i Forum meeting by the number ac | tually present.
