LEGISLATIVE SESSION TO
BE BRIEF JSSERTS CROW
Republican Loader Looks For An Ad
journment By April 15 at Latest—
Says Ho Knows Nothing About
Brumbaugh's Cabinet Selections
William E. Orow, Senator from the
j Fayette district *uul chairman of the
j Republican State committee, was at
the Capitol to-day on le?al business in
the Auditor General's D©i>artmcut and
looking over mutters pertaining to the
j meeting of the Legislature iu January
i when he will be the recognized lewder
on the floor of the Senate. Scaiator
| Crow is fooling exceedingly happy over
the result, of the last election and his
dual victory in State and Senatorial
j district, was the cause of niuota" con
j gratulatiou from* a large number of
callers who met him in Senate Liibrar
| ian Miller's private room.
"I am much gratified over the re
' suit in my Senatorial district," said
i Sejiator Crow, "for the reason that 1
j was fought more bitterly than ever
| tor re-election, but 1 can always fight
j better when I have a hard fight on
hand, and my friends stood by me and
| I won. We had one of the bitterest
State contests ever waged, but a cam
] paign of abuse never wins, and we
] allowed that we still have the thinking
! people with us.''
Senator Crow said the legislative
I session will bo short and business-like.
"I believe it will not last longer than
some date in April," he said, "pos
sibly only to April Ist and certainly
not longer than April 15. It will be a
business session, and we will carry out
all of the legislation pledged in the
Ropubliean party platform. This carry
ing out of the platform proposition
will be done in a business-like manner,
for we propose to show the people that
we will carry out our pledges."
Regarding the personnel of Govern
or Brumbaugh's cabinet, Senator CTOW
said he knows nothing whatever.
''l have no knowledge of whom
Governor Brumbaugh proposes to se
lect," said Senator Crow, "but I am
quite sure they will be men well quali
fied ami acceptable to the people."
While here Chairman Crow had a
conference with Secretary W. Harry
Baker, of the Senate, on matters re
lating to the opening of the legislative
session.
PLAN "CHRISTMAS TREE"
CELEBRATION IN LEMOYNE
All of the Business Men of the West
Shore Town Are Co-operating So as
to Make It a Great Success—All
Printing Matter Donated
A meeting was held last evening in
the Lemoyne school building to com
plete the arrangements for the erection
of a "Community Christmas Tree,"
which will be the first celebration of
its kind in Lemoyne's history. Al
though the rainy weather made it im

effect the spirits of those present.
Business men offered their aid in
carrying out the plans which had been
arranged before the meeting was call
ed. The big twenty-five foot tree that
will be used was presented by Mr.

ministers went in a body to the Ridge
Avenue Methodist church, where a big
dinner awaited them, prepared by the
women's work committee and the wom
en ushers. Tho pies wore a big fea
ture of the meal, appearing in great
abundance and disappearing with wou
derful rapidity.
After dinner, the prenehers march

addressed by Dr. Stough. In the com

Lancaster who are making the trip
here with the ministers to see the
evangelist in action and report on his

to meet the cost of the six weeks' cam
paign has now all been assured, accord
ing to the treasurer of the executive
committee, llr> Heffelfinger. There are
