HARMONY MOVE
ASKS FRIEND TO STOP AGGRES-
SlVE WAR ON HUGHES IN NEW
YORK.

WASHINGTON January 23.-Secre-
tary of War Taft is carrying out the
policy in New York that he has di-
rected his managers to follow in other
states where there are candidates for
ne Republican nomination for the
Presidency. In a letter TO Represent
alive Herbert Parsons, chairman OF
the Republican County Committee o,
New York, the Secretary makes it
clear that he does not want his friends
to prosecute campaign as against
Governor Hughes. The letter. which
was made public by Representative
Parsons tonight, fouows:
My Dear Parsons l am aware that
you and many other friends of mine in
New York State. who are also friends
of Governor Hughes. have nesltated as
to the course 20 pursue i'm respect to
the Republican nomination for the
Presidency ] wish YOU and them to
know that, as far as | am concerned.
there should be no embarrassment in
this regard. | have uniformly urged
friends of mine not TO attempt to di-
vide in my interest the delegation from
any state which has a candidate of it's
own. Since Governor Hughes has in
Dictated his willingness to- accept the
Republican nomination now make
the same request of you and my other
friends in your State. Moreover. |

CANAL SAFE FROM
NAVAL ATTACKS
COCKTAILS THINKS THE DANGER
SMALL-FLEET CAN ANCHOR AT
GATUN LAKE.

WASHINGTON, January 22.-At the
hearings Of the Senate Committee on
lnteroceaniC Canals today, Colonel
Goethals gave assurance that the Pan
anna canal, when completed, would be
reasonably safe from military invasion
and said that the chances of the Grip
ping Of the canal b. spies armed with
dynamite will be very small, providing
armed guards are maintained at the
Miralores and Gatun locks The locks
themselves, Colonel Goethals explain
ed, are located sufficiently far from
either coast to render them safe from
naval attacks
Colonel Goethals said that average
ships probably would be able to pass
through the canal in less than eight
hours
The entire United States fleet he
said, can be accommodated at one
time in Gatun lake, when completed. 20
In discussing the financial needs Of
the Canal Commission during the next
fiscal year Colonel GOethals said that
it was necessary to have S32, 4O3. 7O3.
an increase of more than $4,000, coo
over the appropriation of last year.
The enlargement is mainly due to IN
crease of work.

A NEEDED RESOLUTION.

The Rev. William r. Huntington of
New York said recently that it was
more dangerous to be a railway brake
man than to be a murderer, and PROV
ed his assertion with statistics show
ing that one murderer in seventy-three
was hanged, whereas one brakeman in
thirty was killed
Discussing this startling fact the 9TH
er day, DR.. Huntington said that the
widespread spirit of selfshness was no
doubt responsible.
We incline he said TO put our
selves too far ahead of other people
We could all make no better New Year
resolution than to be less selfish. As
it is, we are too much like the art stu
dent.
There was, you know, a poor Yer
mont art student who shared a studio
bedroom with a journalist from Wis
cOnsin.
The Vermonter went out one morn
ing to do the marketing and brought
home two chops. He laid them on the
table and the cat leaped up and de-
voured one.
Hang it., he said to his Wisconsin
friend, the cat has eaten your chop, A"

COURT DECLINES THE ISSUE.

HOLLIDAYSBURG, Jan. 16.-The
Blair County Court today was asked to
pronounce judgment to determine who
owned a 1O00-pound black bear, the
hunter who first shot the animal, or the
hunter who delivered the finishing shot
Robert Hitler was charged by Lewis
German with the larceny of the bear.
The bear had run foul of a party of
20 hunters along Blair's Gap Run. Cor
man first shot the animal, but to Mil
Ter fell the honor of laying low the
monarch of the mountain top.
Judge Bell dismissed the prosecution
and counseled the warning sportsmen
to choose H. p. Wilson of Altoona, a
leading Central Pennsylvania game au-
thority as arbitrator to settle their
differences.

TAFT URGES PAYING FRIARs.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2O.-Secretary
Taft thinks the United States would be
getting off cheap if it paid the Catholic
Church in the Philippines 100000 for
damage done to its churches by
United States troops. The Churcn has
put in a claim for 81, 100000.
The Secretary told the House Com
mittee on Insular Affairs so this after
noon. He was backed up by Lieutenant
Colonel Hull judge advocate of the
Department of the East, who was chair
man of the army board which re-
commended $4,000 in full settlement
of the claim.
Secretary Taft said that United
States troops undoubtedly had damaged
the churches and even looted them dur
inc their occupation of the structures
as temporary barracks. He explained
that the Church in the islands was
poor because it was dependent on a
poor population

According TO an announcement by
the Secretary of War. the President
has decided to modify his riding
test so far as to exempt permanent
STAFF officers engaged in purely civil
duties. who are by rank and age not
likely to be called upon for field oper-
ations. from the necessity of prov
ing their agility and endurance in the
saddle The propriety of this exemp-
ton is so obvious as to cause wonder
that it did not occur to the President
earlier This is one of very numerous
instances in which an executive order
has been issued first and considered
afterward-a practice which has caus-
ed the President much unnecessary
trouble

CHICAGO TRIBUNE'S OPINION

A lively campaign ended in the cleo
ton by Senator Allison's friends of a
majority of the delegates to the state
convention. 1t adopted resolution
favoring the senator's retention in his
place because of his commanding posi-
tion in the senate and the value OF his
services to the country, the state and
the party.
The action of the convention does
not dispose of the senatorial question,
though it is significant indication OF
the result which may be expected. AT
the primaries to be held in June the
voters will express their senatorial
preferences directly, and as it may be
taken for granted that the republicans
will carry the state the Legislature will
elect the candidate whom the majority
of the republican voters favor. The
legislature will be under no legal obli-
cation to do so, but it will not disre-
gard a clear expression OF popular
sentiment.
1t is a reasonable and a pleasing
presumption that the voters who sent
to the state convention delegates
majority of whom wish to see Senator
Allison reelected also will give him
majority at the primaries. 1t is no
reflection on the merits ofthe aspirants
for his seat that such vote would be
gratifying to republicans throughout
the country. THEY KNOW SENATOR
ALLISON. THEY ARE FAMILIAR WITH
HIS LEGISLATIVE WORK. THEY HAVE
CONFIDENCE IN HIS JUDGMENT AND,
LIKE THE Iowa STATE CONVENTION,
DESIRE "THE CONTINUATION OF HIS
WISE COUNSEL.

BISHOP FOWLER PASSES AWAY

In the death of Bishop Fowler the
Methodist Episcopal church has lost
one of its greatest men. He was an
extra ordinary mana great scholar,
a profound thinker,l an eloquent
preacher, brilliant lecturer and a
strong executive. Since the death of
Bisop Simpson he has been the lead
ing platform orator of his denomina
tion. His lecture on Lincoln was
masterpiece. We had the pleasure OF
hearing it three or four times with in
creased enjoyment. 1t began with

A PATRIOTIC CITIZEN
JUDGE MACY RETIRES

After twenty years of service on the
bench Judge Macy retires with the
high regard Of the people of this dis
trict and their sincere sympathy be-
cause Of his affection. In his letter to
the press he speaks in part as follows:
Owing to family and personal con-
| siderations, | desire to retire at the
close of my present term, and my
name need not therefore be further
considered.
The bar and the people of this dis
| trict, without regard to politics, have
given me their support for 90 years.
At times / have had to undergo very
| depressing experiences, but their
words of encouragement and acts OF
kindness have lightened my work and
| frightened my life. Ihave often publicly
expressed my gratitude, and ] can on
| ly add the debt owe is greater now
than ever before.
| have tried to meet the duties of the
Office with care and fidelity, handicap
ped somewhat though | have recently
| been. Surely no thoughtful person
can censure me for having kept up my
courage and hope the best | could,
nor for having wanted to continue at
work that was in large measure con-
genial to me. There are many in
stances where lawyers have led long
and useful careers at the bar and up
on the bench, handicapped by total
blindness The bar and people OF
this district, almost without an ex-
ception, have made me feel that my
work was satisfactory to reasonable
degree and that they void be glad to
have me continue.
In looking back over the 20 years,
can say that have never allowed
personal friendships or political af-
| filliations to influence in the slightest
degree a single ruling or decision |
have made. ] want to thus publicly
acknowledge my appreciation OF the
treatment have received of the MEM
bers of the bar not belonging to the
political party with which | have act
ed. / have been most generously
! treated.
The prospective candidates are all
my friends, and bespeak for my sue
cessor the same cordial and generous
treatment accorded TO me by the bar
and people Of whom | amjustly proud.

AN IMPORTANT LESSON

Both factions of the republican par
ty should learn an important lesson
from the result in the state convention.
When one faction won out two years
ago, after strenuous contest carried
on for six months, many OF its adhe-
rents, especially among the younger
men, thought the other side were dead
and buried; and that they held the title
in fee simple to the party, with all its
history and emoluments, including the
offices, both then and now and forever
hereafter. Only two yeers have passed.
Another convention is held. The Eel
lows who we're down and out two years
ago, are again at the front receiving
the plaudits and the honors of the con-
veution. AS late as six weeks ago, the
members of the late dominant faction
we're sitting in the parlors selecting
their delegates at large to the Nation
al Convention, while the other fellows
we're doing the chores and "Sawing
wood in the timber lot Dack ol the
barn. The chore boys are now in the
band wagon on their way to Chicago
to nominate candidate for president,
and the other fellows well we suspect
they are filing their saws for renewed
attack upon the political wood pile.
We are not discussing the merits or
dement's of these changes; but we do
want to remind the younger men OF the
ups and downs in politics; that the
men who are up today may be down
tomorrow; and that tits becoming there
fore to be modest when they have sue
cess, and courageous when they suffer
defeat.
