One OF those strange individuals who amusc
themselves by climbing the walls of skyscrapers
fell from the fifth story of Philadelphia office
building the other day. By good fortune he
landed on the roof of adjoining building and
suffered only broken leg which will be mended;
but according to his announcement from the hos
ptal he will not be cured OF the climbing habit.

The Full Crew Laws.

The Republican majority in the New York
senate has agreed to support the bill to repeal the
railroad full-crew law. The proposed repeater will
provide that the Public Service Commission be
given power to say how many men shall be en-
ployed on trains operated by the railroads This
is the plan proposed in the repeater to be urged
upon the Pennsylvania legislature, and seems to
be as fair proposition as the public, the railroad
workmen and the railroads entitled to. 1t is
common sense no less than common justice to all

The figures sent to London estimated the Ger.
nan-American vote in this country at 5000 900,
and the statement made that if this vote
should be cast solidly for against any Presi-
dental candidate, it could decide the result As
/ 10 the truth of this assertion there be no
doubt whatever
The curious fact is that there is no way to
accurately determine the exact strength OF this
German American vote. The census tells how
many negroes OF voting age there in New
York. Ohio or any other State, but it does not
give the same information regarding voters Of
foreign stock 1t docs show, however, that of
the total population of the United States in 1910
Germany was the country of origin of per
cent while England only rs per cent.
Persons born in Germany constituted 1877 per
cent of the foreign-born white population while
the native white population of foreign or mixed
parentage having Germany the country OF
origin constituted no less than 80 per cent of the
entire population
The census also shows that there are in the
United States less than 100000 persons OF
German stock of whom 100000 re-German
born, 100000 are native whites of German par
entagc and 100000 have either German father
or German mother. The census docs not show
how many of these 100000 people males of
the age OF twenty-one over, but it is known
that the German-American Alliance, having head
quarters in Philadelphia, carries over 100000
men upon its rolls, not including members of
German Catholic or German Lutheran organiza-
tions. 1t is reasonable estimate therefore, to
say that there at least 100000 voters in this
country who have some German blood in their
veins

Asitation Against the Administration.

The fact that the agitation among these mil
lions of citizens against the administration is in
creasing daily is political factor of no small
importance.
Meetings have been held in all the principal
cities of the country and have been very largely
attended. The attendance in Boston, Philadelphia,
New York and Chicago has been such to ex-
coed the capacity of the largest auditoriums. The
statement was made last week that the defeat of
Carter Harrison in the Chicago mayoralty cam
paign was due to the fact that his opponent made
the nonshipment of arms to, belligerent nations
an issue in the contest. At each one of these
meetings President Wilson is being quoted a
witness against himself. In an address to Con-
gress on August y. 1913. when there was no
war cloud on the horizon of Europe, he said:
Il shall follow the best practice Of nations in
