REPUDIATE THE DEAL

IT may be possible for a conference
composed of representatives of the
Washington party holding proxies
to force through the nomination of
Mccormick, the Democrat, as the sub
stitute of the third party for Governor
in this State, but the disgust that has
overspread the whole third party or
ganization as a result of the sell-out
of Dean Lewis to the Democratic ma
chine is certain to make the deal
between the bosses of the two parties
of no benefit to either.
Scores and hundreds of honest third
party men who were standing for
what they believed to be an important
principle, especially in the matter of
the statewide primary, have declared
IN the last few days their intention of
supporting DIR. Brumbaugh and the
whole Republican ticket. No other
result could have been expected under
the circumstances.

TUESDAY EVENING. SEPT. Is.
PENROsE IN THE COUNTRY

~ NE of the arguments presented
by the opponents of Senator
~ Penrose AS indicating his al
legged weakness is the fact that
a majority of Republican voters of
the State outside Philadelphia and
Pittsburgh cast their ballots against
him. AS matter of fact the Senator's
plurality over Dimmick, his chief COM
petitor in the primary fight, was
nearly $4,000 in the rural districts.
1t has recently been stated that with
Philadelphia and Pittsburgh machine
phalanxes deducted, a majority of the
voters of the State cast their ballots
against him"
This statement is refuted by the
official figures, which show that Sem
ator Penrose had 1O7, AIT plurality in
the State and total plurality in the
rural districts outside Philadelphia
and Pittsburgh of 26,S22.
Whatever the alleged reasons for
opposing Senator Penrose, the facts
are against tho contention that he is
strong only in the two large cities.
His total vote in the primary was
219,S71. OF this vote Allegheny county
gave him 1882 and Philadelphia
S0,979. His total rural vote was ex-
actly 100000 and that for Dimmicll
1928, showing clear plurality in
the rural districts of 26,S22 for SEN
ator Penrose.
So it will hardly do to insist that
the Republican nominee for United
States Senator is without substantial
and hearty support throughout the
interior counties. In fact, reports in
dicate that he is growing stronger
with the progress of the campaign
through the breaking down of the
Washington party and the increasing
antagonism to the policies of the Will
son administration.

NO DOUBT WHERE BRUMBAUGH

[From the Philadelphia Public Ledger
No one who knows the man has been
uncertain where DR.. Brumbaugh
stands on the local option question. But
an attempt has been made to create the
impression that he has been talking
about local option in general terms for
the sake of getting votes and will be-
tray it's friends when elected. No man
with any pretense to intellectual hon
esty can say hereafter that DR.. Brum-
baugh is straddling the question, for
his answers to the pastor of the Second

and unequivocal that there Is no pos

poses. He not only pledged himself to

APPEAL TO AMERICAN WOMEN

THE Woman's Home Companion
publishes an Appeal to Ameri-
Il can Women" from the pen of
Miss Ida NJ. Tarbell, that ought
to be read by every woman in the
land.
Miss Tarbell notes the unsetting of
American industries and imports as a
result of the European war, and takes
the position that American women
ought to consider it duty and priviA
lege to support American industries,
not only in the present crisis but at
all times.
1t is quite true, as Miss Tarbell
says, that European imports favored
by women have been of quality su-
peror to that manufactured in this
country, and this has been so for the
reason that American women have
insisted on having imported goods to
the exclusion of the domestic product,
and Miss Tarbell points out that this
has resulted in the home manufac-
turer confining himself to cheaper
wares. She urges women to ask for
|
the American maker to improve the
quality, as he is so we'll able to do.
Miss Tarbell concludes with this
eloquent appeal:
The day has come for the Ameri-
| can woman to wake up to her duty
| to the industries of this country.
| our common people have paid ter
| rible price to establish them, but
| they never can be developed to their
4 4
! and stimulus. Now is her time.
Temporarily. at least, the mael-
strom which has sucked In all Eu-
rope deprives her of supplies. This
is her time to learn what her own
countrys industries can do, and to
rally with all her influence to their
support, urging them to make the
! things she wants, pledging them
| her allegiance.
The world has seen in these days
| wonderful outbursts of patriotism.
| We have seen men and women lit
orally begging to be taken to their
| country's aid. Is 1t only war which
| is to stir men and women to effort
and thought and sacrifice? Has
I patriotism nothing to do with peace,
with the daily efforts of men?
The great patriotism is that
which serves ones land consciously
and steadily in all the relations of
life. The American woman of taste
nized her relation to her country's
industries. Now is her time to
| awake.
To keep the American people at
work through this crisis; to show
the world what patriotic peace
means, as opposed to patriotic war;
10 offer at the end of this STRUGGLE
a picture of the fruits of each so
striking that men can never forget
it-that is our duty as a nation.
One of the most substantial contri-
buttons that the American woman
can make to the fulfllment of this
duty Is to give steady, intelligent
] support to American industries.

LAST PASSENGER PIGEON

Il VIE IdSI passenger piScOIi 10 uSou
in its cage at the Cincinnati Zoo.
l. Thirty years ago, when this
specimen of the species was
caught. passenger pigeons by the mill
lion flew north and south spring and
fall across the land. Men still living
can remember seeing them in great
clouds that sometimes required a
whole day in the passing. Myriads of
them were slain for food and yet no
impression seemed to be made on
their numbers. Then the f1ocks began
to diminish. In a few years they dis
appeared altogether and for a decade
past scientists have offered a stand
ing reward for pair of the birds
with which to perpetuate the race.
The disappearance of the passenger
pigeon is one of the apparently un-
solvable mysteries of the world.
While they were killed in great num-
bers, the small impression made by
these onslaughts was not sufficient to
have exterminated the race any more
than the annual killing of blackbirds
has blotted out that species. Many
theories have been advanced, but none
is satisfactory. Whether the birds
were the victims of some strange dis
ease in epidemic form or learned to
avoid the country in which so many
of them were slaughtered may always
remain a puzzle to those interested
in birdlore.

BLEACHED FLOUR

T HANKS to Pennsylvanias ad-
vanced stand in the matter of
i pure food legislation, the recent
decision of the United States
Supreme Court i'm the bleached flour
case will have no effect here. The sale
of bleached -four has been forbidden
by State statute in Pennsylvania and
Commissioner Foust has formally
warned manufacturers that any such
flour shipped into Pennsylvania will
be condemned as rapidly as found.
The Commissioner has said that In
view of the conditions elsewhere re-
sulting from the federal courts de-
cislon he had directed Special Agent
II. l.. Banzhoff to purchase in the
usual way samples of all fiours on sale
in the State that were brought in from
other States, from Ohio westward, and
also to examine into the milling prac-
tice of all Pennsylvania Touring mills
and to buy samples of their flours
wherever there was reason to believe
that they were using a bleacher In
this way 104 samples of foreign flours
were purchased, together with a num-
ber of domestic samples. These were
examined by Chemist James A. Evans,
of Erie, who found 2S samples con-
tanned nitrous acid or nitrites. Prose-
cutions for violation of the law have
already been started in these cases and
will be vigorously pushed.
This is only an example of the Wig
orous methods employed by the State
administration to protect the people
of Pennsylvania from the fraud and
injury of impure goods.
