THROWING BOMBS INTO CITIES

"HE German government has been
defending its reprehensible con-
\ duct in the destruction of un-
defended Belgian cities and the
demolition of the cathedral at Rheims
by the assertion that noncombatants
have been caught firing on Germans
in uniform and the torch has been
applied to private property in re-
taliation. The excuse is weak, of
course, but isn't the German army
guilty of exactly the same sort of
violation of the code of Civilized war
fare" when its air craft drop bombs
into the residence portions of cities in
the fighting zone?
What benefit to the German arms
accrues from such a raid on Paris as
was recently reported? Much private
property is destroyed and men in Ger
man uniform drop explosives on the
hea DIS of noncombatants. killing and
wounding inoffensive persons What
difference is there between an armed
German killing French noncombatants
and French noncombatants firing on
armed Germans? If anything, the
latter is the more excusable. for then
both are armed and it Is a question of
craftsmanship, but 1t is sheer murder
to drop explosives on the heads of
defenseless women and children. We
should not be surprised to hear reports
from France of frightful retaliation
for this sort of savagery and there
would De few to blame the French
what=r7er measures they may adopt.

and so long as they can throw dust
into the eyes OF the people in cam
paign which so vitality involves ma

w THlLE many Oh lne uhsish'iy
N/ poles and overhead wires
" have been removed from the
main business district of the
city, there are still other poles that
ought to go. A considerable step in
this direction was taken last year and
there ought to be no let-up in the
move to still further reduce the num-
ber of poles and wires that not only
endanger property, but the lives of
the people.
Several of the corporations have
made a real effort to eliminate the
overhead wire nuisance, but there are
others that have shown considerable
indifference in the matter. 1t is un-
derstood that the City Council has
under consideration a general under
ground proposition which will gradu-
ally reduce the pole nuisance through
out the city, especially in the con-
gested business district.
While they are about it the munich
pal authorities should not lose sight
of the fact that there has been Ca
gradual encroachment upon the side
walk lines through the display of
large electrical signs. These are not
only dangerous, but they overcome
the very effect that was sought to be
obtained through the elimination of
poles and wires. These signs ought
to be restricted to the building line.
Many of them extend over the side
walk and far beyond the house line.
Denver once started a crusade
against the sign nuisance and in a
single night several hundred of them
were removed by order of the Mayor
of that city. We trust the abuse of
the sign privilege will not go to the
point Of outraging public sentiment to
the extent that a public upheaval
shall follow.
AS to the removal of the poles and
wires, it ought to be the duty of the
proper official or officials to see to it
that there is full report made of all
poles still standing, together with a
proper recommendation as to the
wires that might be placed in the
conduits now established.
1t is said that there are still many
wires in the most congested sections
that could be placed in the conduits
and the poles removed without fur
ther delay.
Harrisburg is progressing admirably
in many directions and nothing
should be permitted to interfere with
the sightlness of the city streets either
in the business or residential sec
tions. We have expended hundreds
of thousands of dollars on street paw
ing and other public Improvements
and such regulations should be adopt
ed as will certainly prevent encroach-
ment by corporations or individuals
to the detriment of the city and pri-
vate property owners.

Messrs. Vance C. Mccormick and A.
Gentlemen

MeSSTS. vance - MCColHllCh anu y.
Mitchell Palmer,
Gentlemen:
A well authenticated account has
appeared recently of the dire want
and sufferings from hunger of
Harry Kechler and family, consist
ing of wife and two little chill
dren, residing at 3l75 Weikel street,
Philadelphia. Kechler, an upright,
honest young man, who never tast-
ed liquor, kept up his co2y, little
home with his earnings In a hosiery
mill. The mill was closed, not by
an European war, which some po-
litical jugglers are trying to make
the scapegoat for all ills brought on
our land by DEMOCRATIC bungllng,
but 1t was closed by the Democratic
tariff law.
The case of Kechler, brought into
public light, is no isolated one.
when his furniture had all been
sold to supply food to his children,
the only thing that stood between
his family and starvation was the
labor of his wife at the wash tub
some two days a week at fifty cents
a wash, and the scant help of
neighbors almost as poor as them
selves.
1T hurts So" said Mrs. Kechler,
when you can't explain to a child
why it must go to bed hungry"
OF course it hurts. 1t would
hurt, not a parent only, Dut any
one with one spark of humanity in
his bosom.
For months Kechler has tramped
the streets of Philadelphia in search
of employment. He has failed.
Every where his answer has been,
Times are bad; we are laying off
men, not hiring more"
The case of Kechler, which has
been brought into publicity through
the researches of an investigator,
is no unusual one in the Kensing-
ton mill district. There are hun
dreds as bad; i'm some cases, even
worse. There are similar cases in
Weikel street. in every adjoining
street where are crowded the men
and women who lived by toll i'm fac
tories now closed entirely or run
ming on short time in consequence
of the blight inflicted by n tariff
reduction forced on American peo-
pie by Democratic theorists.
There are more cases like that of
the Kechler family all over Penn
sylvania wherever manufacturing
industries have been built up by
years of a protective tariff.
Yet this starvation, this misery is
the result of a tariff which was to
have reduced the cost of living for
the laboring man.
The President made great flour
ish in signing this same tariff act.
The event was staged with much

vanians who do not believe in the

Prohibition State chairman, is urging

they have a divine right to right of

dramatic effect and two pens were
necessary.
1t was on this occasion that Mr..
Underwood, who had put the bill
through the House, said: Assured
ly it will reduce the cost of living"
Senator Simmons, who had charge
of the measure in the Senate, joy
fully responded: "It is a traiff bill
that will above all things reduce
the cost of living"
On the same occasion Speaker
Champ Clark, who once announced
himself in favor of tearing down all
the custom houses in the country,
declared: The bill was intended to
reduce the cost of living; If it did
not do that, it would not be of any
value, and would have no reason
for it's passage or existence"
With these prophecies a policy
evolved by theorists and condemn
ed by experience was forced upon
the country.
Please explain why 1t has not
reduced the cost of living.
Please explain why it is closing
our mills.
Please tell the sons of toll If a
party which has so deceived the
people is worthy of continuance in
power.

[From the Columbia Independent
Congressman Palmer has appealed
to Secretary McAdoo to re-establish
the Twelfth Revenue District, because
the law says it shall be, and for the
further reason, we are given to under
stand, to give a place to Warren Van
Dyke, of the Democratic State COM
mittee, who is the only one of that
office force who has not been cared
for. However, no one expects the
ball to open in that direction be-
fore the November election, as it
would not be wise to give the cold
shoulder to the candidates in Cumber-
land, Fulton, York, Lancaster and a
few other counties, just now. If con-
gratulations were not q little previous

From many sources we hear of the
alleged intention of the multi-million-
aire Democratic candidate for Governor
N this State to distribute hundreds of
thousands of dollars in promoting his
own ambition. He has already squan-
dered many thousands in the same
way, and as a pampered son of fortune
believes he can buy anything his fancy
suggests. Perhaps, in these times of
Democratic depression 1t may be a good
thing to have the purse-proud candi-
date of the Palmer Mccormick machine
scatter a few hundred thousands and
thus increase the per capita circula-
tion.
