EXCITEMENT IN ELECTIONS


INDICATIONS at this early date are
that we are going to have rather
i exciting election in Pennsylvania
next Fall. We already have begun
to make q noise about it. Indeed
there seems to be more noise than
anything else, and that is one of the
hopeful signs.
1t has been observed that a free peo-
pie always make a great ado about
their elections. The fate of the re-
public is decided regularly every four
years in a campaign that would lead a
South American general to the belief
that q revolution was all matter OF
the defeated party being able to smug-
gle In sufficient rifles to arm the In
surgents. But nothing of the kind
ever happens. We print an extra sup
ply of salt River tickets" smile tri-
umphantly or sheepishly, as the case
may be, and go on as before trying to
make u living, under conditions that
may be better or may be worse, but
which we have no thought of attempt
ing to change except at the polls when
voting time rolls around again.
1t may be observed that England
also is fast getting into the noise
making election habit. 1t has been
growing for years. but the din that is
Just now arising over the course OF
the government is ear-splitting. 1t
can mean but one thing-that more
and more the people and the officials
they elect are coming into power, and
that more and more the House OF
Lords and the King are being rele-
gated to obscurity Even in Germany
the personal note of the voter is aris-
ing to a pitch that must sound with
strange discord on the ear of the War
Lord, and Japan is raising such a dis
turbance that perhaps the ancient
emperors hear the echoes past the
portals of the tomb, and. stirring
wakefully, wonder what has transpired
to set the populace mad.
The voice of a free people is always
loud and often discordant. Judging,
then, from the noise we in the United
States are making just now, the bird
of liberty is soaring triumphantly IN
the heavens, and poor old trust
threatened "E pluribus unum" and the
"Star Spangled Banner" have taken
on a new lease Of life. If SO. let the
din continue. On with the racket
let votes be uucontined.

PRESIDENTIAL INTERFERENCE

The Presidents January resolutions
to keep out of politics were too IDEAL
istic for practical purposes. Iowa,
Illinois, Pennsylvania and New York
have been added to the original ex-

he must meet the demands of his dual

LINCOLN

-ORE has been written about
III Abraham Lincoln than about
lvl any other American, Washing
ton not excepted. yet there Is
new lesson to be learned from every
fragment of literature that comes TO
light on the subject.
In a recent issue of the New York
Evening Post there appears wen
written and interesting sketch deal
ing with that formative period OF the
Emancipator's life before he was
great man" Some of us may dis
agree with the title, holding that Lin
coin was from the first great man.
although comparatively unknown, but
the article throws some sidelights on
the character of the young man before
and during his circuit lawyer days
that ought to be in the hands OF every
ambitious boy that faces what may
seem to him almost insurmountable
obstacles to success.
To be sure, we are not all LIN
coins. but the problems he had to
solve and the hardships which he had
to overcome were infinitely greater
than those which the average lad is
called to meet in these days of educa-
tional opportunity.
What young lawyer of to-day would
dare face an audience in the garb of
n plouehman, bare of foot and un-
shaven? Lincoln did it. Hear Mrs.
Jane Martin Johns, an eyewitness, tell
of the incident:
Lincoln had come in from his
plowing. to hear the spea.ki{itng, .i{tn, and adn
is described as follows: very tan
and thin; wore a hickory shirt
with COLLAR of same turned back at
his throat; a broadbrimmed straw
hat with a piece fringed out at one
side and black string tied around
the crown to make it fit the head,
and very tight. tow-linen pants
mIsa nnFles a0oys When ms the eafs Speaker fe @ n
= ished attacking the old-lne Wings,
Lincoln was so stirred by the at,
tack on his party that he jumped
up on the splintery, stump of tree
which had been blown down, ana
won the cheers of the, crowd with
oniy ri sign n tt that he gave Of his dis
comfort was in constantly shifting
his position to ease his bare feet.
Tt is of interest that the square in
Decatur where this first speech
was given now bears his name
In that incident is written the key
note of Lincoln's success in life-tht
KEYNOTE, too, of any young man wht
would succeed. Prepared for thu
emergency, ready to grasp the oppor
tunity 1t offered, careless of the opinion
of others concerning himself so lone
as he knew he was in the right, firm
vet gentle, a man in soul, a woman il
heart. In short, a sturdy, Outstanding
eelf-trained man who knew distinctly
what he wanted to do and set abou
hoing it. Success comes to any mar
who follows that life lead in a meas
ure commensurate with his abilities
and his efforts. Luck is putting one!
self in the way of opportunity an'
then laying firm hold on oppor
tunity.
"The proper study of mankind i
imam" no doubt, and the lesson o
Lincoln is the lesson the aspirin:
young man must learn if he woult
go far

greeted when he arose to speak. He
delivered patriotic address and made
no reference to politics. He discussed
at length the extension of the patriotic
organization movement In Pennsylva-
mia and outlined the history of the
p. o. S. of A., concluding his address
with d tribute to Abraham Lincoln.
His remarks aroused the enthusiasm
of the audience. Senator Penrose lett

erence for either William Draper

mean that Young will not be a candi-
date and that the support will be
thrown to Lewis at the conference
here week after next. Kelly's name
was not even menti ned and Mayo
| is now to the front for second place.
He is former district attorney, was
member of the legislative committee
of the Republican and Washington
State committee in 1912 and did not
get an Office under Powell or Young.
In Philadelphia yesterday some In
dependent voters leagues endorsed
Dr. Martin G.. Brumbaugh for the Re-
publican nomination for
governor and there came
a recurrence of the talk Crow Not
about him as possi- Making
bility. Senator E. III. Slate
Ware said that he was
very fine man and that
as the Republicans must select a
strong man he was being talked or.
State Chairman Grow said that he did
not even know Brumbaugh, but had,
of course, heard of him. Senator
Grow then said: Members of the
State committee have no candidate,
but we are interested whenever the
name of any man is mentioned for the
head of the ticket, for we want to see
what the people think of him, but the
function of this committee is to elect
the man the voters in the party select
at the primaries. We have not heard
that any of the men thus far men,
toned as suitable candidates for gov
ernor will be willing to enter the pri-
maries. There is no slate and Will be
