EMPLOYMENT the Preventive of Charity

NTAYOR BLANKFNBURG makes the sem
Nl sible suggestion that If Councils, in
stead of employing the usual tactics OF delay
and obstruction. shall expedite the enabling
ordinances 10 make effective the municipal
loan to be ratified AT the coming election,
work will then he found for the city's unem-
ployed. a procedure which will make
necessary the dangerous plan OF dispensing
charity from the city treasury, as advocated
by the Organization floor leader IN Common
Council.
If the Organization majority IN Councils is
sincere in its purpose 10 provide a loan for
the immediate and pressing needs OF the
city It will accept the Mayors suggestions
in the spirit in which they are offered. In
stead of in the antagonistic spirit aIyeady
voiced by Chairman Connolly.
The voters OF Philadelphia will keep Il
close watch on the Organization Council
men to see that the peoples purpose in hor-
rowing millions for public WORKS is not
thwarted by another resort 10 petty. pLggssy
politics.
A prompt ratification OF the loan and an
equally prompt passage OF the necessary ap-
preparations win do more to relieve the in
dustrial situation and hnd work for the
workers than anything that could be devised
IN the way OF ill-advised and imprnv1dsnt
charity.
The Mayor says truly, that those atit OF
employment at the present time want work
and not charity"

To the Editor Of the Evenino Ledger.
Sir-1f It Is true, as is alleged good au-
thority, that certain man is behind the gun"
In shooting into the Christian churches of the
state deroEatory statements to tho candidacy
of DIR, Martin Brumbaugh for Governor OF
pennsylvania, which worse than folly Is being
swallowed and furthered by some of the
churches without even so much as giving II the
slightest investigation, then Il does seen that II
lis high time that there should be an awakening
throughout the entire state as to the true situa-
ton Doctor Brumbaugh Is too good man, with
too clean record from the time he began as a
boy TO work on the farm, later in the saw mill
and his fathers store, right down to the present
minute, TO be malgned in that way, especially
so when II Is being done through Christian
churches which ought to stand with him now,
shoulder to shoulder, as he has stood with them
from his boyhood. Now is the time when they
can show that they have backbone and not
easily led to do grave injustice to of the
best and noblest men in the state, either
account of their ignorance, thoughtlessness
folly.
Furthermore. It will not do to Simply sit idly
by and let this attempted injustice be perpe-
trated. because that would be to prove unwor
thy of the name of Christian or good and
worthy citizen. 1t is the solemn duty of the
ministers and laymen alike to get busy and
stand up for man who hasN shown himself
fully worthy of 1t, and who Is being ehamefully
abused and misrepresented for selfish ends by
those who are trying to the Christian
church and ministers as catspaws.
NO greater stain could come the churches
of Pennsylvania than for Doctor Brumbaush to
suffer a 5erious loss in votes by OF this
misrepresentation, (which is innuendo be-
cause no one has dared to openly accuse him
OF anything unworthy of the highest Christian
citizenship.
When ono reviews the clean record of Doctor
Brumbaugh he cannot help but see that every
citizen In Pennsylvania who honors worth and
manhood should promptly rise up and Join in
doing Justice to him at this time, when so grave
an injustice Is threatened by men who evil
IDENTIFY stand ready to assessinate character in
order to accomplish their selfish ends. and who
trust to Christians and their leaders in the pull
pit to aid them In their nefarious and damna-
ble aims. In no better way can the churches OF
the State show that they In sympathy with
the masses and worthy of their support and
cooperation than by seeing to It that plain JUS
tice Is done to Doctor Brumbaugh, even though
1t may be necessary to preach It from the pull
