BERRY is STILL ON THE JOB

IFrom the Philadelphia Inquirerl
Collector Of Customs Berry is still on
the job. Not the job of collecting Gus
toms duties. OH dear. no, but the
job of stumping for Palmer and Nc
Cormick. 1t is singular business for
the chief Federal officer in Pennsyl-
vania, but it must be said for Berry
that he does not do things by halves
1t must be remembered that Palmer

that Mccormick was mo skate" but
that he was a man who had asso.

GUARD EFFICIENCY

THERE is no hurrying and sour
rying about the Adjutant Gen
i erals Department or the State
Arsenal. There is no excite
ment around the National Guard ar
mories. The Guardsmen are going
quietly and undemonstratively about
their daily duties.
Yet each of them-from General
Stewart to the company cook-real-
ICES that it is probably mere matter
of hours until the call to arms shall
have been sounded
There is no last minute rush be-
cause, as General Stewart put it to
an inauiring newspaper man the other
day-"The Pennsylvania Guard is al
ways ready"
Political malcontents are fond of
railing at the State Government OF

than a grain of efficiency in an ad-
ministration that can produce q
militia trained and equipped like reg
ulars and able to take the field on o
notice of three hours.

The Mexican situation has passed
field of action. 1t can do little good
now to rebearse the long series of
hlunders, stubbornly persisted in,
which led up to, If they did not induce,
the lamentable condition which now
exists In vain publicists urged the
administration to forsake its fatuous
policy, to abandon it's untenable po-
sition, looking toward the avoidance
of Intervention and the rehabilitation
of Mexico by Mexicans without OBJ
struction by this nation. Futilely this
newspaper, in common with others,
for months deplored the program of
drifting toward the inevitable, the
academic phrase making of those re-
sponsible for our conduct, the sopho-
moric endeavor to apply ideal inter-
national ethics to very real and
practical problem. Without result the
administration was besought on all
sides to withdraw from its inexplicable
support of the brigands operating in
the North. into whose vengeful hands
have been put American weapons. In
vain the Secretary of State was called
on to come down out of the clouds and
stand on solid ground, that this nation
might be saved from the fearful obli-
cation which threatened. The peace
makers were too intent on explanation
of their purpose to put II into exc
cution. While they talked the situation
ran away from them.
That stage of the proceedings is
over and done with. The nation has
been dedicated by its responsible off,
GERS to definite course, and that
course, without quihble. is war. Only
Providence can guide events.
The nation has been dedicated now
to new policy. There is still a ouib-
BILE as to the name of the condition
existing, hope expressed that our
differentiation of those against whom
our arms are employed will be ac-
cepted by the Mexican people, who
are or are not to be our enemies ac-
cording to their view of their domestic
politics.
If that hope is illusory, since II

admiring and enthusiastic Mr.. Berry
to bring the fact to the attention of a

prosaic business of collecting customs
duties not only glorified the candidate

mitting a "descredited bunch to hide
behind him." He even went so far as
to name a few members of the "dis-
credited bunch" and ii is evident that
not one of the number ever had the
distir ction of associating with kings.
1t must be confessed that Mr.. Berry
has given touch of color to the cam

discussed such dull topics as the tariff.
the currency, the canal issue and the
Mexican situation. But the eloquent

higher plane. He has given us some

expect him to confine himself to col

GETTING TOGETHER

ERHAPS the most significant
speech in the interest of Re-
publican harmony recently de-
livered was that of William A.
Prendergast. Comptroller of New
York city, at the Republican State
convention in Indiana. He made a
sweeping arraignment of the Wilson
Administration and called upon the
Republican Progressives of the State
to forget their differences and work
under the same banner He attacked
the Democratic Administration for its
tariff changes, for its foreign policy, its
interference with business and the
general incompetence that has charac-
terized the conduct of affairs at Wash
ington.
Mr.. Prendergast is not in harmony
with some of the Progressive leaders
who are striving to interfere with the
rehabilitation of the Republican party,
but he argues that time is a great
healer and has already produced re-
markable results in alleviating much
of the bitter feeling that existed less
than two years ago.
There seems to be no doubt that the
utter failure of the Democratic party
in the national Administration. after
having been given full control of the
government. is responsible for the bet
ter feeling now existing In the two
camps of Republican voters. Mr.
Prendergast suggests that those lead
ers who refuse to see the handwritine
on the wall will be left to lead them.

party return to the Republican fold
He also intimates that the independen,

the party in 1912 has resulted in ac.
complishing much of the reform which
justified the movement.
There is an increasing sentiment
among Republicans of all shades ot

Wilson. Those who are posing In

approval must be given to understand
that this State, of all others, has had
enough of experimental and theoreti-
cal Democracy. Whatever may be
said by the irreconcilable leaders of
the Progressive element, 1t is clear
that the large majority of those who
left the party in 1912, whether they
admit IL now or not, are ready
to stand shoulder to shoulder with
their Republican brethren.
But 1t must be understood by the
leaders of both sections of the party
that there is to be no retaliation on
either side. Bygones must be bygones
and any individual or group of indi-
viduals who shall endeavor to pro-
long the party division by stubborn in
sistence upon lines of policy or party
management contrary to the manifest
desires of the majority will discover
that they are out OF touch with the
real situation and will soon be leaders
without followers. Any so-calied
leader who takes any other course is
suffering from defective vision and is
not in harmony with the real senti-
ment of Republican voters.
