WILSON'S ATTITUDE

n the Presidents message is(more
IA closely studied there is a strong
element of protest among the
people against the recommendations
covering new taxation. In addition to
the previous war taxes" the President
now proposes to assess further bur-
dens upon various industries in a wild
effort to avoid the folly of the ad-
mihistration's attitude upon foreign
imports.
There are many additional sources
of revenue which can justly be re-
sorted to without hampering the in
dustries of the country or putting any
too great charge upon individual ex-
penditures," says the President; but
he doesn't say a word about the in
dividuai expenditures involved in a
loss of trade, loss of the opportunity OF
employment and general loss of pres
tige growing. out Of the fatuous free
trade policy of the administration.
He thinks, however, that the auto
mobile and gasoline and a few other
things of that sort can pay the freight
without realizing that such taxes lead
inevitably into other channels and in
crease the burden already unfairly
and unreasonably imposed upon the
people of the United States.
Unfortunately for the President, he
makes 1t extremely hard for the aver
age patriotic citizen to support the
national government upon the ques-
tions of defense and resistance to for
eign intrigue when he gives so little
heed to the fundamental matters
which concern so intimately the pros
perity and welfare of the people.

ALL ROADS LEAD THIS WAY


is widespread interest among
all classes Of people in the pro-
posed plans of Governor Brumbaugh
for the Improvement of the main
thoroughfares entering Harrisburg.
While the State must bear the larger
part of the burden of highway i'm
provement, it will be necessary for the
counties and municipal divisions to
cooperate to the end that these high
ways may be accessible to all who use
the State system, which will include
thousands of tourists within the next
year or two.
One of the greatest problems which
now confronts Harrisburg, by reason
of the fact that the highway involved
is the main State artery westward, is
the narrow stretch of road around the
point of the mountain between Speece-
Vile and the Clark's Ferry bridge
This is one of the most dangerous sec
tions of road in Pennsylvania because
it lies on a narrow shelf between the
Northern Central railroad and the
abandoned ditch of the Pennsylvania
canal. Its width is so narrow as to
make the stretch q death-trap. This
road is entered at the south end over
= grade crossing of the railroad and
~ unless some steps are taken to cor
rect the present conditions there may
be a frightful tragedy that will force
prompt action.
1t is easily possible to overcome the
present situation by utilizing the
abandoned canal route in whole or
part for highway purposes. This would
avoid the grade crossing and likewise
eliminate the difficulties growing out
of a narrow highway wholly made
quate for the heavy and constantly in
creasing traffic.
The Motor Club of Harrisburg has
within it's membership many promi-
ncnt and active citizens and it is pos
sible for this organization to act as
leader in a movement to secure the
definite and practical cooperation of
the State, the county and the railroad
company in correcting the present diff
ficulties.
Another highway in which Harris
burg is deeply interested is that which
connects Gettysburg with this city.
1t is known on the State highway map
as route No. 123 and is about thirty
five miles in length, passing through
Shepherdstown, Dillsburg, Clear
Spring, York Springs, Heidleburg,
Plainview and thence to Gettysburg.
1t is important that this highway be
made as attractive as possible so that
the thousands of travellers who visit
the battlefield every year may find a
comfortable entrance to the Capital
Of the State.
Much interest has also been arous-
ed in the proposed William Penn
Highway, which will traverse the
Commonwealth from Philadelphia to
Pittsburgh, passing through Harris
burg and the Juniata Valley westward.
Already the Chamber Of Commerce
has taken this matter under considera-
ton and there has been some corres-
pondence between the officers of the
Chamber and interested citizens along
the proposed route with a view to
having conference on the subject in
Harrisburg in the near future.
Anything and everything that can
be done to improve the highways lead
ing to Harrisburg should have the
support and consideration of all our
citizens.

Mayor-elect is not anticipating a fight
in the organization ranks"
Harry A. Mackey, chairman of
the State compensation board, a
standard bearer for the governor,
made a speech last night in Phila-
delphia in which he said that nothing
could stop the onward sweep of Brum-
baugh sentiment because 1t was
grounded on humanitarianism. Mackey
was given a dinner at which Senator
Ware and a number of other men of
pronounced Ware sympathies were
also speakers. Mackey said in part:
There will be no factional fight
within the Republican party, either in
city or State. AS the air is filed with
rumors of Statewide factional fights.
want to venture the prediction that
the Brumbaugh administration and its
legislation Is so true to the dictations
of the public conscience and popular
demand that no man can be found
who will dare to face the people in
antagonism to this propaganda of
humanity"
1t cost Philadelphia $4,000 to
count its vote. 1t was the most eX-
pensive yet.
A committee has been named by
Philadelphia to urge the selection of
that city for the national convention.
"A master has been named to
settle the Coatesville mayoralty fight.
1t is going to the courts.
Ex-Governor William a. Stone,
Ex-Speaker Walton and w. NJ. Bum
are mentioned as possible prothono-
taries of the supreme court, to sue

Mitchell.
The death of County Commits
sioner John A. Martin. one OF the re-
organization Democratic leaders i'm

by men in every party in Pittsburgh.
Mr. Martin, who had been an alderman
was recently elected county commits
