Penrose Is Able Man.
Senator Penrose is. one Of the remark
able characters Of the Senate He has
been little understood. He has seldom
been heard on the Senate floor. This
has led many TO suppose he could not
make a speech. He is large in physique.
and seemingly phyegmatic in tempera-
ment Many have wondered what were
his qualities that entitled him TO be at
the head OF the Pennsylvania Republi-
can organization.
The fact Is. however, that Penrose IS
a man OF rare ability. He was a first
honor man at Yale. He is a lawyer OF
ability. and has written books OF much
merit dealing with legal subjects. He
IS wealthy, and originally went into pal
itics as a refOTmer- No one would &C

and has shown real capacity for lead

meuts TO defeat him for reelection
These efforts have practically fallen fat,
and he viii be reelected without q
doubt.
Made Witty Speech.
No one would suspect PenrOse Of hav-
ing a vein Of humOr, and few would
suspect him OF being able TO make a
speech. Yet at a recent dinner given by
the inimitable Joe Sibley, Senator Pen
rose made an after-dinner speech that
was pronounced the cIeverest and WITH

Senator Penrose has never married
and he is an organization man. When
he was first sent to the Senate. some

Chaos F0LLOWS PenrOSe;
None to Lead Machine
Knox Would Not Take Job and Rest Are
Local Men-Senator Rich and a Man
of Culture and Ability

What would become Of the PennsyI-
vania Republican machine without Pen
rose?
This is a question that has been much
asked by politicians in the last few
days because of the dangerous illness OF
Senator Penrose and the reports that he
might not survive. 1t is realized that
Senator Penrose and the reports that he
condition that il is likely at best 10 take
MIN good many months 10 get into
such physical shape that he can hold
the reins over the formidable Pennsyi-
vania organization, sndthat there would
be nothing surprising if he should have

fullest opportunity for rest and recup-
Grafton.
At any rate. what is disconcerting
the members Of the Pennsylvania ma
chine is that they do not know where
they could find a leader II Senator Pen
rose should step down The very con
tinuance Of the organization would be
threatened No man is looming up that
seems 10 nave the capacity TO I'LL the
shoes Of the renowned Matt Quay. It
would take many months. perhaps
years. TO develop a leader competent 10
run the Pennsylvania organization.
Knox Wouldn't Take Job.
Senator Knox. Of course. could run the
organization if he wanted TO. but he
doesn't want 10. He simply wouldn't.
He has no taste for that sort Of thing.
In fact, he has q profound dislike for It.
II Senator Knox should suddenly in any
fashion be forced into the leadership
and a delegation should descend on him

county, he would grab his hat and coat
and escape TO the woods. He would
probably fee from the State. So there
IS not the remOtest possibility Of Knox

over I'm Pennsylvania they are proud
of the eN-AttoTney General and swear
by him, but no one seriously thinks OF
him as a man who would head the ma

don't lie in that direction.

SOME HORSE SENSE

The American people are dis
gusted Win the great railroad COM
panies and private spectators,
which hold vast areas of valuable
timber land and refuse TO comply
with the terms on which they re-
ceived the grant. What do the
American people want to do with
these lands in case the grants are
annulled? Do they want them to
go back to the public domain to be
purchased at $1.25 per acre by
"homeseekers" Is not that foolish
ness? Will a man make his home
on one hundred and sixty acres OF
land containing five millions feet of
timber? Will he clear IL? Or will
he sell the tract as soon as he has
title to IL 10 some syndicate? II the
latter, then where have the Ameri-
can people been benefited? The
fact is this land Is nOly speculative
land and will not be converted into
farms unless the timber is cut on
and wasted. That would be a mis-
fortnne. too.
Now the truth Is plain. For ex-

here we wish to state that the
