FAVOR T. R. IN
PENNSYLVANIA
Primaries Being Held There
Today--S Situation Is Not
Bright for Taft.
EXPECT A BIG VOTE
Reports From Six Congress
siOnaI Districts Indicate De-
feat for the Organization.
EXPECT A BIG VOTE

Philadelphia, April 13.--With an IN
dercurrent of opinion that was unmis-
takably strong for Roosevelt and felt
by both sides alike, the polls Of the
state primary opened here and else
where over the state at 2 O'Clock this
afternoon. Word received from six
congressional districts indicate that
the party organization will have but
little influence In the election, having
been shorn of Its old time powers.
Without the police, which has been
the organizations chief asset In times
past, no forecasts on the results are
being made by the regulars.
TIE new director of public safety
has shifted his men around in such
way that the Penrose-McNichOl
crowd are practically impotent today,
and while the administration is out of
politics the director himself is an ar
dent Roosevelt man, and the police
know It, and they believe that they
must work against Penrose. If the
penrOse machine is beaten here then
the Roosevelt men have certainly en-
gneered the most clever coup de etat
that has been manipulated in PennsyI-
vanla politics for some time. 1t is not
only possible, but probable, that some.
thing like this may happen, for there
are signs which point that way.
One Of the most important assets Of
the Penrose machine is missing
throughout the state, and that Is the
aid which they have always relied
upon from the state Democratic ma
chine. Today every Democrat is need
ed in the bitter fight for the control of
that party which is being waged
by the Donnelly- Ryan -Cuffey forces
against the TNalmer-G Guthrie Nc Cor
mick faction.
Advices from up the state indicate
that Clifford Pinchot, who has been do
ing valiant work for the former presi-
dent, has simply hypnotized the farm
ers of Jefferson, Indiana and Arm
strong counties. If this is true then
the Twenty-aeventh district, which WAS
counted sure for AFT, will be found
IN the other column.
Down in Greensburg the Westmore-
land miners are bitter against Penrose
for not forcing q settlement of the coal
strike, and many Of them say that the
senior senator is misrepresentng the
people of this state for the last time
If this sentiment persists, then Roose-
welt Will carry nine of the farming
counties and receive, Of course, eight
cen delegates. If he can command
much strength outside of Pittsburgh
and Philadelphia, then he will do bet
ter than have twenty-four members
who will advocate his cause at the ma
tonal convention. He will come so
close to dividing the delegation equally
with the president that 1t will be vir-
tually moral victory. This condition
is not only worrying Penrose, but II
has him on the verge of political col
lapse. Hurry orders were sent out this
morning.
The contest IS the cleanest and most
honest that this state has ever expert.

MUST
FOLLOW ORDER
Acting Mayor and Chief of
Police Confer and Decide
on Restrictions.
CHILDREN IN DANGER
Can Use Sidewalk al City
Hall But Must Not Go on
Certain Streets.

Roller skating has been stopped
by the police on certain sections of
the principal streets as a means of
further protecting the lives of chill
dren. Following q conference with
Acting Mayor Ferd Garretson, Chief
Of Police Burke issued orders this
that there must be no roll
er skating on the road or sidewalks
of Smith street between Water and
State streets, of State street be
tween Smith street and the Lehigh
Valley bridges, and of High street,
between Smith street and City Hall
park.
VIII Enforce Orders.
Police officials will endeavor to
rigidly enforce this new rule. The
chief and acting mayor declare this
action obvious, when it Is consider
ed that traffic of horses and wagons
is heavy and automobile traffic has
increased considerably of late. 1t
is purely as a possible means of
eliminating danger to children who
are constantly in the path of vehi-
cies when skating on the street, that
these steps were taken, Chief Burke
says. To obliterate any nuisance
of having children skate on side
walks, the police had kept them on
the street. Now the practice has
grown 50 dangerous in congested
parts of the business centers that it
had to be curtailed.
Can Use City Hail Walks.
This rule does not prevent chill
dren from skating on Market street,
about City Hall park or tho side
walk IN front of city hall, but as
the police have always opposed skat-
ing on sidewalks, it may be stopped
there at any time when it is consid-
cred a nuisance.

Never since the Johnstown flood, when
the big fill at the west end of the B. &
0. bridge at this place was washed
, away has the North Branch of the
Potomac river been so high as it was on
last Wednesday afternoon, between the
hours of and o'clock. The constant
downpour all day Wednesday along the
headwaters of the stream commenced
to manifest itself shortly afternoon
when it was noticed that the stream
was rising rapidly. The foodtide was
reached about fifteen minutes after
four O'Clock, when the river rose seven
feet in ten minutes and flooded all the
lowlands and river bottoms and threat
ening to carry away the little iron
bridge between this place and Franklin.
The water was running over the
Maryland end two feet in depth. All
the gardens at Franklin, the pride of
their owners in the morning. are swept
clean and bare and the waters that
evening were rushing past the back
doors of the dozen or more families llv-
ing there, as if their homes had been
constructed on the river bank. Pig
pens, cowstables and all the outbuildings
were the first to go. Fortunately no
lives were lost. All the livestock had
been removed before the flood reached
its highest point. Savage river was
at it's highest at the same time and
combining its waters with those of the
Potomac, sent volume down to Pied
mont that threatened at one time to do
serious damage to the low parts of the
town. AS it was Back street was
flooded to the depth of four or five feet
and many families were taken from
their homes in wagons when the waters
were running in the wagon beds. The
water was backed up on Main street as
far as Suffer- drug store and around the
First National Bank to the depth of
twelve inches.
