"Old Guard" Join With "First
Voters" In Patriotic Campaign.
VETERANS IN "OLD BOYS" CLUB
Toung Americans Are Standing
Steadfastly By President Roose
velt.
[Special Correspondence.]
Harrisburg, Oct. 11.
While Chairman Penrose, of the Re
publican state committee, has been
making a special effort to bring the
young men of Pennsylvania to the front
In the campaign for the election of
Roosevelt, he has not overlooked the
"Old (Juard."
Primarily, this is a contest in which
the young Americans have figured as
they never iigured before in American
politics, and they are backing Theodore
Roosevelt almost to a man. From the
outset of the campaign special efforts
have been directed to get the "First
Voters" lined up solidly for the Repub
lican ticket, and on every hand there
have been organizations formed of
"First Voters."
Tho conspicuous part taken by theso
young men has aroused the "Old Guard"
and men who have not for a number of
years participated in a presidential
campaign art' coming to the front and
demanding positions on the firing line
for Roosevelt and the whole ticket.
Th e"01d Boys" they style themselves
In places, and following the plan
of campaign adopted in New York state
they have gotten together in different
communities and held reunions and rat
ification meetings at which experiences
of tin past have been recounted and
resolutions adopted reaffirming their j
fealty to the party of the Union and
protection to American industries.
A national organization has been
formed along these lines of men who
voted for Fremont or Lincoln, and who
have banded together to get the "Old
Guard" to the polls on next election
day for Roosevelt and Fairbanks.
It has been found that clubs organ- j
ized by such men have created great ,
enthusiasm among their neighbors, who
cannot help admire the devotion and j
the loyalty of the veterans to tho stand
ferd cf Republicanism.
These organizations Inspire theyoung
men with renewed respect for the party
which has held in its ranks so
many patriotic citizens for half a cen
tury. and which at the same time today
represents the progressive spirit of tho ,
nation at home and abroad.
One of the most successful of the "Old j
Boy" organizations in this state Is that
which was organized recently in Chris
tiana, Lancaster county. The 31 mem
bers voted either for John C. Fremont
in 1856 or Abraham Lincoln in 1860.
The chairman, George Whltson, is an
octogenarian, who attended the Phila
delphia national convention which
nominated Fremont for the presidency.
Every day there are received at the
Republican state headquarters letters
announcing the organization of "Old
Boy" clubs in different localities in
Pennsylvania, and in reply Secretary
Wesley R. Andrews informs the officers
that the names of all the members of
such clubs are enrolled at the state
headquarters and will be preserved
among the most cherished records of
the party organization in Pennsylva
nia.
Where such organizations desira
speakers to address their meetings,
special care i 3 taken to furnish them
with men of experience and intelli
gence who can review the great work of
the Republican party in tho nation
and state since its organization.
"While the "Old Guard" are gath
ering in serious deliberation of the
burning issues, the new recruits are
being marshalled for the spectacular
demonstrations of the campaign. In
many counties handsomely uniformed
clubs have been organized to attend
mass meetings and assist in stirring up
party enthusiasm. Companies of Roose
velt Rough Riders, fully equipped with
campaign hats aud suits of khaki and
rifles have been drilled to perfection
and have been on parade at many meet
ings.
The Young Republican Campaign
Regiment of Philadelphia is possibly
the strongest organization numerically
that has been formed. It turns out
1000 fully equipped men In the old
fashioned cimpalgn capes and caps
With the coal oil torches of the days of
old
In York county, under the command
of Senator McConkey, there Is a regi
ment of Rough Riders which Is doing
great work for the whole Republican
ticket.
Pennsylvania had the largest repre
sentation of any state at the national
convention of the Republican Club
League at Indianapolis last week, and
she suiteeded in again winning the
presidency of the organization by the
re-election of J. Hampton Moore, of
Philadelphia The delegates to that
convention have still ringing in their
ears the patriotic and magnificent ad
dress of Senator Beveridge, who, In
commenting upon the work of the
young men in this campaign, among
other things said:
"Young men want a president whose
confidence in the American stock Is
strong enough to leave the future to
those future Americans who must deal
with It when It arrives.
"Young men do not want a president
whose doubt of them places them under
bond to carry out his views long after '
he 1b gone—especially when that bond
binds them to strike our country's col
ors, ev»»n though when the time to do
It comes the whole world might ag
grieve that such an act would be un
righteous. unpatriotic and unwise."
The Healthful I plilll Walk.
The beat way to get oxygen into the
blood is to walk a mile uphill two or
thr»*e times a day, keeping the mouth
cloned and expanding the nostrils. This
beats uli other methods. I Miring such
a walk every drop of blood in the body
will make the circuit of the lungs and
stream, red and pure, back to its ap
pointed work of cleansing and repairing
wornout tissues. Recreation piers are
corning into use at seaports. and people
are being advised to use balconies and
fire escapes in the fresh air treatment !
cf consumption, 'i lie uphill walk, as a
prophylactic and curative measure in
many chronic ailments dependent upon
a weak condition of the heart, lungs
and blood vessels, would prove iuvalu
able. —Medical Brief

PENROSE AND CORTELYOU TALK
The Bryanites Are Bolting Judge
Parker In Every County In the
6tate.
I Special Correspondence.]
Philadelphia, Oct. 11.
Chairman Coitelyou, of the Repub
lican national committee, in discus
ing the political situation in Pennsyl
vania with Senator I'enrose a few days
ago, remarked: "Senator, you say that
you, in Pennsylvania, are going to
break all records and give President
Roosevelt the largest majority ever
given to any candidate in your state.
l'p< n what do jou base your predic
tion?
"1 mr.ke this prediction," replied
Senator Pentose, confidently, "because
the Republican organization In Penn
sylvania was never more harmonious.
It was never in better fighting trim,
find it was never more determined to
get out the full party vote than it is
today."
In the course of a lengthy confer
ence Senator Penrose went Into de
tail regarding the congressional dis
trict contestants and the plans of the
leaders to carry every disputed con
gressional district in Pennsylvania in
I order to Insure the election of a Re
, publican speaker of the next national
house of representatives. Ail of the
members of the national committee
: are delighted with tho reports receiv
ed from Pennsylvania and Cornelius
N. Bliss, the treasurer of the national
j committee, has been especially com
| plimentary in his references to Sena
j tor Penrose's co-operation with the
representatives of the national com
\ mittee in Pennsylvania In collecting
subscriptions to the campaign fund
for work In the doubtful states.
; Earlier in the campaign there were
6tories emanating from Democratic
sources that Chairman Penrose had
solicited monoy from the national com
mittee for use in Pennsylvania. Noth
ing could have been more absurd. Not
only has Pennsylvania not asked a
penny from the national committee,
but, through Chairman Penrose and
others identified with the party or
galzation in this state, most generous
contributions have been made to the
national committee to help finance
the campaign in the contested states.
Dr. Theodore L. Flood, of Crawford
county, a former congressman-at-large
from Pennsylvania, who was one of
the callers at the Republican national
committee headquarters, a few days
ago, In an Interview published In the
New York Tribune, was quoted re
garding the situation In Pennsylvania.
"Upon the death of Senator Quay,
who had so long held the place of
acknowledged leadership," said Dr.
Flood, "the question naturally arose
as to who would succeed to his mantle.
The question is fully answered in the
fact that the present senior senator,
Boies Penrose, is squarely In the sad
dle, and the broad experience acquired,
first in the state senate and later In
the upper branch of congress, coupled
with the fact that he is chairman of
the state committee, gives him a rare
equipollent for the leadership. He
heartily acquiesced In the choice of
Attorney General Philander C. Knox
as his colleague, and the Junior sena
tor gives promise In his past achieve
ments of a brilliant career.
"Senator Penrose Is ably seconded
in the direction of the state organiza
tion by Colonel Wesley R. Andrews,
who Is both private secretary to the
senator and secretary of the state
committee. He has a genius for or
galzation and work.
"Unity of purpose prevails, and the
absence of all bickerings wes never
more complete. The result of the
happy and harmonious conditions that
now obtain will be a plurality of more
than 300,000 for Roosevelt and Fair
banks."
While the Republicans of Pennsyl
vania are united and agresslve, the
Democrats are divided and disgusted.
They cannot get together to make a
move for their ticket The row among
the Philadelphia Democrats made It
necessary to call off the meeting In
the Academy of Music, where Bourke
Cock ran was to have made a reply
to Senator Knox. The Independence
party charge the Donnelly-Ryan men
with breaking up their plans, and the
Donnelly Ryan men accuse the Inde
pendence faction with trying to use
the national committee to further their
interests.
Meanwhile the Bryan men. the sil
verites, are working against Parker,
and many of them propose to vote the
full Republican ticket to get even with
the "gold bugs," who, with the aid of
Wall street money, succeeded In cap
turing the St. Louis convention from
the free silver wing.
The attitude of the Bryanites was
well expressed by Candidate Watson,
of the Socialists, when he said:
"The Democratic party is a house
divided against Itself. It has In it
all tho elements of deluge and death.
It Is bound togo to pieces, because
It represents nothing but a mere
greedy, persistent hunter for office.
When Bryan led it, it stood for some
thing. When Stephen A. Douglas led
it, it stood for something, and when
Jackson and Jefferson led It, It stood
: for something. With Parker, Its nom
nal leader, it stands for nothing. Par
ker has no elements of leadership. Ho
will not go before the people and speak
to them. He will not write in plain
language which they can understand;
and in the end he must be a tremen
dous failure."
The Wlndom of FOOIN.
Folly, in the abstract, has been de
nounced alike by Scripture and ancient
heathen sages. "If I wish to look at a
fool," says Seneca, "1 have not far to
look. I have only to look in a mirror."
The Emperor Maximilian distinguished
the dullest of his counselors by the title
of the king of fools. Once when he ad
dressed a prosy adviser by this title the
gentleman neatly enough replied: "1
wish with all my heart I were king of
fools. I should have a glorious king
uoui and your imperial majesty would
be among my subjects."
lIF,\PS OF MEAT.
Other countries are largely depend
ent upon the United States for their
meat supply. Last year live animals
were exported to the value of $52,000,-
000; dressed and cured meats, $113,-
000,000; fats and oils. $00,000,000; dai
ry products, s'.),< mkumm); other miscella
neous meat pioduets, $12,000,000; a
grand total of $254,000,000. The best
farming there is now done In this
country is along the line of producing
some form of these meat products, the
soil constantly improving In fertility
under such a system instead of dete
rlorating. as w!?h grain farming and

THE LONDON TIMES AND SOME OF
; THE THINGS IT HAS DONE.
Wliy ••The Tlivimlerer" In Such h
INiwer In Kurnpt'—The History off
the Times Is 112 lilllslory «»f tin* J
> World Since the I'aper Started.
The London Times is the most com- I
! plete and thorough news record pub-j
s lished in any language. Its law re ,
ports, written by barristers of stand- i
ing, are essential to all Knglisli law
yers. Its accounts of parliament form
a convenient reference for public and j
private libraries throughout the world.
In every department it gives a full re
i port of what has happened,
t The paper was started in 1785 under
> the name of the Daily Universal Reg-
ister, which was changed to the Lon
r don Times in 17SS. In lsu;s it began its
• great development under John Wal
" ter.
It is no vain compliment to say that
' the Times is part of British eiviliza ]
5 tion. For over a hundred years it has
belonged, with the Established church j
• and the British constitutiou, to the his
' toric greatness of the race.
' "You cannot buy the Times," its ed- J
J itor proudly said when a powerful
man sought to silence its thunder, and
the words might well be written in let
ters of gold across the portal of Print
ing House square. You cannot buy the I
' Times.
Lord Randolph Churchill in that dra
' matie moment when, locking up the I
| wonderful budget which nobody lias
ever seen, he stepped for the last time 1
out of the treasury in Whitehall, hailed
a hansom and drove to the office of the
Times. In ten minutes he was in the j
. editor's room telling the editor the
news which was next morning to star
tle the political world.
"Of course you will support me,"
Lord Randolph said in his own way.
, "No," said the editor, while Lord
J Randolph stood aghast.
"But there Is not another paper in
, England which would not be grateful
for such a piece of information," ex- |
I claimed the wondering statesman, and
the editor agreed. But would Lord
Randolph take the news to any other
paperV He might do so, and not a j
t word should appear in the limes the
next day. Lord Randolph left his se
[ cret with the Tillies and left the office,
we may be sure, reflecting on the won
, derful character of the one thing in the
, world which no man could buy. The
, Times the next morning reproved him
severely for deserting his colleagues.
It has been so from the beginning.
, The Times was a child of four when
> Its founder, the first John Walter, was
1 put Into Jail for censuring the Duke of
i York. But they could not imprison the
Times, and even while John Walter
was in Newgate he was sentenced j
again for severely criticising the
Prince of Wales and accusing the I>uke
of Clarence of leaving his ship without
leave.
The government withdrew its adver
tisements and its printing contracts,
but the Times went on its incorruptible
way. It made cabinets and broke
them, exposed plots and averted them.
At least once, at a cost of hh», the
Times nipped in the bud an interna
tional conspiracy which might have
ruined half the banks in Europe, and
there are two scholarships in London
schools endowed by a thanksgiving
fund then raised to the Times.
When the railway mania was at its
highest the Times sacrificed a fortune
In advertisements by denouncing the
spirit of recklessness which was abroad,
and neither the penalties of the law,
the enmities of statesmen nor the loss
of revenue has availed against the
' fearless determination of the Times to
1 say the thing it thinks.
There were dramatic spectacles at
times, when the great newspaper
fought not only its own but foreign
governments. Napoleon himself, who
! feared an editor more than an army, is
said to have wanted to bring an action
1 for libel against the Times, and Gui
zot, the French minister of a later day,
did more. To punish the Times for its
unfriendliness he detained its courier I

In l'arls, delaylug its dispatches. But
tht.* Ingenuity of John Walter 11. was
too much for him.
The situation in India was grave,
anil the Times established an overland
j route to England without touching
i France. The Indian mail was banded
to a messenger at Suez, the messenger
rode 011 a dromedary 2<H' miles to Alex
andria and there handed his packet to
| n passenger on an Austrian steamer
bound for Trlest. Thence the pre
cious packet was dispatched via Os
tend to Dover, where a special train
waited to bring it up to London.
The French minister was angry and
made another move. Special trains
and steamers were placed at the dis
posal of the English rivals of the hated
■ paper, and for once the genius of the
Times failed. But a storm stopped the
French vessel in the Mediterranean,
while the Times steamer sailed <juietly
up the Adriatic, and the triumph of
the paper coincided with the advent of
its famous editor, Mr. Delane, who
became editor of the Times when he
was twenty-three.
The history of the Times is the his
tory of the world since the paper begau
publication. No historian, writing of
[ any period from the French revolution
i until now, can do without its tiles.
It was the 1 Hike of Wellington who
said that the editor of the Times was
the most powerful man in the country.
There was nothing the editor did not
know, few things he could not do. It
WHS through the Times that Lord John
Russell learned of the indiscretion of
Palmerston, which led to an apology to
i the king of Naples.
it was the Times which accused
Lnnl Me'viHe, the friend of Pttt, of
fhe practices for which be was im
peached, a tragic destiny which broke
I'itt's heart. It was the Times which
startled the world one morning by an
nouncing that Peel would repeal the
corn laws. It was the Times which
published the Berlin treaty in London
two hours before it was signed in Ber
lin. It was the Times correspondent
in Paris to whom Alfonso XII., leaning
against the mantelpiece In his study,
told the story of the coup d'etat in
Madrid which had made him king of
! Spain.
It was in the Times that Charles
Dickens wrote the burning letters
which brought an end to public execu
tions. It was in the Times that I>ord
I Brougham, Maeaulay, Disraeli, Dean
Stanley, Cardinal Newman and a host
of famous men were proud to write.
It was the Times that saved the
world from one of the greatest catas
trophles that could have occurred in
modern Europe. All the world knows
the story now, but the thought of the
French scare sends a thrill through the
chancelleries even today. It was Bis
marck who this time was behind the
Times Bismarck, the founder of the
German empire, who saved that em
pire from Itself and revealed to the
correspondent of the Times the terrible
' plot which would have crippled Franco
a second time.
Jealous of Moltke and perhaps hon
estly detesting his fiendish conspiracy
against a conquered foe rapidly regain
ing her strength, Prince Bismarck let
Blowitz know, and Blowitz, the l'arls
echo of the "Voice of Europe," told it
to the world. Those who remember
the twiddle seventies remember yet the
effect of the thunderbolt which the
Times hurled against Count von
Moltke.
The Times has missed its chance
sometimes. In 1802 its editor received
a long letter forecasting the alliance of
Russia and France, but as nobody but
the writer seemed to believe it the edi
tor kept it back until IHO7, when it
announced, with the rest of the papers,
that the Franco-Russian alliance was
an established fact.
If It lias lost prestige in error It him
sacrificed itself not once or twice, but
many times, for peace and the welfare
of the world. One of the most graphic
stories In journalism is of the foreign
minister who sent for the Times cor
respondent and shouted a challenge to
England in his ears, who flourished a
bundle of telegrams In the Journalist's
face and declared that " should
pay for it." The correspondent went
not to the telegraph office, but to bed,
and the world was no wiser the next
morning for the angry scene of the
111111 before, which, had it been known,
almost certainly must have caused
war.
It Is something surely to have record
ed for so many years the affairs of the
whole world. It is something more to
have been through all these genera
tions a fearless critic of princes and
kings and the enemy of wrong.
"We thundered forth the other day,"
wrote Captain Sterling in a "leader"
which give the Times its nickname,
"an article on the subject of social and
political reform," and the Times is
"thundering forth" still. The world
has changed, and the Times moves
with the times, but its ancient glory
lias not passed, and there is not a liv
ing Englishman who would gladly let
die the wonderful paper which gives
us today and builds up for posterity
the history of the world while it is be
ing made.—London Mail.
