RUSSIA IS VICTORIOUS
 IN GALICIA

 Driving Them Into Their Trs0
Little Known of Activities in Posen and PreSIau, But the Russians Have Occupied Sey-
 eral East PruSSian Cities Now

LONDON. Sept. 12-The Russians continue 10 strike at the Austrian left in Galieia. and according to re- ports from Petrograd. they have sue ceeded in smashing it. The object in concentrating the attack on this wing of the Russian army is obvious for the Russians have desired more than anything else, and desire at the pres ent time Co put the Austrian army en- tirely out of the fight before more German endorsements could be rushed up to It's aid
 What Is termed as the Austrian left is said to be in an angle between the rivers Vistula and San, where the Russians hope to force a surrender.
 Of the Prussian and Posen cam. paigns nothing has been divulged to- day but official reports say the Rus sians are operating before Posen and Preslau and have occupied Tzensto- choff and Petrokoff It is thought. however, they will satisfy themselves with trying to hold the present posit- ion both in Prussia and Posen until they have attempted and more com. pletely disposed of the Austrians. In addition with the arrival of the rainy season, Russian Poland will be trans formed into marsh in which the Germans win find it impossible to move

[From the Altoona Tribune.l ]


one of the many pleasant memories
carried away by every guest at the
recent testimonial luncheon in honor
OF Dr.; j. I. Rothrock, at Harrisburg,
was the remarkable speech delivered
by Governor Tener. 1t has been said
that our Chief Executive is no orator
and that he has not been able to
sway many votes by his efforts on
the stump, but those who heard him
eulogize DR.. Rothrock formed an en-
tlrely different impression.
Ihe occasion of the speech was the
GoVernor's presentation to the vener-
aoIe father of the Pennsylvania For
estry Department of a handsome sill
yer cup purchased by a subscription
taken up among the good doctors ad-
mlrers The presentation took place
at the close Of the lunch, which was
by nearly a hundred representative
door life in general. Governor Tener
Is a modest man and when he got
up to speak few expected the flow of
we'll chosen words he outlined Dr.
Rothrocks long and useful career. the
good he has been to mankind and
What ne can do for mankind in the
future. Then he held up the superb
cup and in the choicest English handed

crimlnating audience We're spell bound
while he was speaking Oratory such
as TINS has seldom been heard in re-
cent years. The speech was not long. in
fact 1t was far too short, but 1t was
worth eVeryone's while to have been
present and heard it. At the conclusion

Governor Tener's Speech

there We're prolonged cheers and much
applause. Those seated near the Chief
Executive congratulated him for what
he had said, but from his manner he
did not act as If he had said anything
extraordinary. He acted Is if it was all
in the course of the days work and de-
serving of no especial commentator.
But those who heard the speech have
added oratory to the list of the popu-
lar Governors accomplishments.
Pennsylvania is indeed fortunate to
have such a versatile man at the head
of her affairs. A thorough man of the
people. he is fitted in every way to pre-
side. over a State filled with such II
comingling of races as we have in
Pennsylvania. His career, from the
time he arrived in PENNSYLVANIA as Il
friendless boy from Ireland to his pres
ent exalted post as Governor of the sec
ond most populous State in the Union,
reads like romance and should be
published broadcast and put in the
hands of every schoolboy in the State.
The National League showed rare fore
sight in electing him to the Presidency
and thus far he has performed his
duties well.
The Governor must be a busy man
these days between baseball and state
craft. but he manages to find plenty Of
time to attend to all his tasks well. But
there never was rarer treat than to
have heard him, with graceful phrases
present that loving cup to DR.. Roth
rock. He was able to say what every
person present felt in his heart, but
would have been unable to express. 1t
is great blessing to he able to think
beautiful thoughts, but much finer

HARD BUSINESS FACTS

From the New York Sun.
The revised tariff has been in force
for more than seven months. The fig
ures available show that since the be-
ginning of last October to the end of
last month exports decreased s113,O12-
555, in comparison with the correspond
ing period in the previous year. At
the same time imports increased s23,-
625, ,493. AS a result the trade balance
FOR the seven months ended in April
was less favorable by S136,63S,O4S than
for the same months in the previous
year.
This is a very large shift, but its
significance is made more impressive
when 1t is noted that last month alone
the alteration in the relation of imports
and exports compared with the April
ngures year ago converted an export
balance of s10,271,S72, a total change
OF $64,162,721 adverse to the United
States.
1t has taken a little while for the
influence of tariff revision to make
itself felt in the trade movement, but
1t can hardly he disputed that the new
tariff is operating as a powerful stimu-
!us to importations. March imports
increased S27,3S5.SO6. This gain was
followed in April by an expansion Of
S26,446,26S, an increase of $53,7S2, ,069
for the. two months, the comparison
being with the corresponding months
in 1913. March exports Just failed TO
hold their own in comparison with the
outward movement in the previous
year, while April exports fell s37,444.-

"IN THE GOOD OLD SUMMERTIME"
BY Wing Dinger

There's one thing bout old summer
That fills me with disgust,
And that is that where'er l go
L find lot of dust.
For instance, on the trolley car
You take little ride,
And to breathe in the good, fresh air
Your mouth you open wide.
Ihe car just fairly sails along,
You smile. as at joke,
BUT suddenly your mouth is full
or dust-you almost choke.
Or maybe you go riding in
An auto with some friend.
And all at once you realize
That pleasures at an end
Another auto passes you
And takes the lead-you're stung
From that time on you breathe in dust
Enough to fill each lung.
I'm fond of summer, and I'm full
OF all this wanderlust,
But 1t would be much better If
We didn't have the dust.

products. One of the most profitable
industries for which some of the South
American countries are especially well
adapted is that of fruit growing.
Last year the United States i'm
ported something over s32.000.O00
worth of fruits from foreign countries
These consisted almost altogether of
the kinds that are produced in limited
quantities or not at all in this country.
such as bananas, currants, dates, figs,
olives, etc. Apricots. peaches, pears,
plums, cherries and the many other
fruits to which we are accustomed
would find splendid market here in
the winter season if they could be had
fresh. 1t is this demand for our native
fruits in the off season which will
develop the fruit industry in the west
coast countries of South America, for
with refrigerator steamers they can be
shipped via the Panama canal from
Callao, Peru, to New Orleans in seven
or eight days and the fast fruit trains
of the railways will have them in Chi
cago and eastern markets in two or
three days more. Fresh ripe peaches
in New York in December and January
at reasonable prices will be one of the
results of the building of the Panama
canal. if President Wilson's tolls policy
does not keep prices up.

lT'4iH iuVSllOI lids DSen asked:
why did Martin G. Brumbaugh
i poll a vote at the primaries that
practically assures his election
next Fall?
There are two reasons. One of them
Is the deep resentment of Pennsyl-
vania people against the Wilson ad-
ministration and the other is Martin
G. Brumbaugh himself.
The Republican candidate is a
mighty big man; big in everything
that goes to make for bigness of char
acter. He is a giant physically, NOR
ally, intellectually and spiritually. In
all his years as head of the Philadel-
phia school system his enemies have
never once raised a single question as
to either his ability or his honesty a
leader in the civic, municipal and edu-
cational development of the Quaker
City, Mr.. Brumbaugh has not only
won the respect of all who know him.
but he has won their love. Speak m
any child of school age in all Phila-
delphia and you will learn how deenlv
Martin G. Brumbaugh is enshrined in
the hearts of the young folks.
And surely 1t is, not false mill
osophy to believe that he who is ! wed
by the young can be trusted by their
elders
