ets. With the exception OF eighteen
months. nine of which were spent In
Shawnee, and nine in Ada, Mr. White
has been with this paper from that
date. He Is now foreman Of the press
room and IL an expert stock keeper,
and Is well acquainted with the buy
ing end OF the business. His greatest
skill lies in his knowledge OF job
stock and in computing cost OF print
ing His long association with the
business, his close observance OF the
operating department. his knowledge
OF stocks and OF prices make him
most valuable man in the office. Be.
ing the bread winner for the family

ties to attend school, but he has gath
cred enough practical knowledge for
the successful operation Of his depart

DULL PERIOD ADVERTISING

THE Evening Ledger attempts to
show that advertising pays in
= dull periods as we'll as in pros
porous times. To do so it quotes
from the annual reports of a half
dozen or more of the largest indus
tries of the country, all of them ad-
vertisers on a nationwide scale and
each showing an increase of business
during 1914. The Ledger attributes
this gratifying condition in dull year
to advertising throughout a period
when many large mercantile houses
and manufacturers suspended their
campaigns or greatly reduced the
amount of space used.
If this is true in a national sense.
it ought to apply locally as we'll. Here's
hint for some enterprising business
man in Harrisburg.

BRONCHIAL COUGHS

When the bronchial tubes are ae-
fected with that weakening, tickling
cough, they need immediate and SEN
sible treatment The breath seems
shorter because of mucous obstruc-
tons; usually fever is present and
your head jars with every cough.
Your chest aches and the inhamma-
ton often spreads to the lungs.
The food-tonic that has proven its
worth for forty years-is SCOTS Emul-
sion. It drives out the cold, which
is the root of the trouble, and checks
the cough by aiding the healing
process of the enfeebled membranes.
IF you are troubled with bronchitis
or know an afflicted friend, always re-
member that Scott's Emulsion builds
strength while relieving the trouble.

MORRIS VISIT HAS
STIRRED FACTIONS
Likely to Make the Breach in the
Democratic Party Wider Than
Ever This Year
GETTING BILLS READY
Impeachment of Judge Umbel

With His Old Rival
GETTING BILLS RE-

The visit of Roland S. Morris, the
Democratic State chairman, to this
city to attempt to make some political
capital out of the legislative situation
has not only failed. but IL has stirred
up all the animosities that have been
slumbering in the Democratic State
organization since the crushing defeat
of last November. These, added to
the dissatisfaction over post offices,
are tending to bring about a fierce row
in the Democratic party this summer.
When Morris was here he was told
pretty plainly that some Democrats
intended to vote for local option re-
gardless of what he said or did and he
was houted by other Democrats who
refused to go to see him at all. Sew
eral Democrats are also said to have
criticised the transfer of headquarters
from this city when four years ago it
was one of the pleas of the reorgan-
izers that headquarters should be
maintained here
Morrls is facing an ugly situation in
pittsburgh over the post office an
pointment. Things have been bad for
his faction for some time in the west
ern end of the State and he got little
satisfaction when he was in Pittsburgh
recently. Now the rival candidates
for the post office are making music
all the day
The Democratic bills, which are not
intended for anything except sacrifcial
purposes, are due to make their ap-
pearance in the Legislature soon. One
or TWO are being drafted now and they

people Will recall that there were some
mutterinss about impeaching this
judge last session and a short time
ago II. S. Dumbauld who was the

that he was going to start somethinC
anew. Now it is openly admitted that
Judge Umbel has agreed to resign so
that his successor can be elected in
1917.
Governor Brumbaugh is PLAYING
no favorites in local option letters He
makes public the protests as well as
the endorsements. In his mail yes-
terday came a letter from Homer L..

letter from a German society in Nc

FISH FOR WILDWOOD

THE State Department of Fish
cries would confer a great favor
= upon Harrisburg if it complies
with Commissioner Taylor's re-
quest for half-million young sunfish
and catfish to be placed in Wildwood
lake. Some years ago the lake was
stocked and thousands of fish have
been taken from its waters since.
Carp fishermen have found rare sport
there. although there are many who
believe that fishing in general would
be improved could some way be found
to eXterminate these German invaders.
who seem quite as hardy and persist
ent as the German armies themselves.
However, sunfish and catfish are
better able to take care of themselves
than many another variety of the finny
tribe and it is not likely that the carp
will interfere much with them.

THE WOOL BUSINESS

~ EMOCRATIC r editorial critics
have the surprising effrontery to
- credit thirty-one cent wool to
the Underwood tariff. Wool
prices of the present are just as attri-
butable to the tariff as is six-cent cot
ton. Beside, what consumer will say
that he has been benefited by any
changes in wool prices since the tariff
law went into effect? Has he noticed
any reduction in the price of his suit
or his overcoat, or are there any more
wool workers employed now than be-
fore the Underwood regulations be-
came effective? These questions are
respectfully referred to those who
have been boasting of Democratic
tariff benefits along wooden lines.

MAKE 1T TWO MILLIONS

n row that Pennsylvania's splendid
nj forest reserves have passed the
i Y mark of one million acres, steps
should be taken by the Legis-
lature to provide a scheme Of appro-
priations whereby the public domain
can be Systematically increased until
the ultimate object of the establish
ment of the Forestry Department can
be accomplished. This object was re-
serves in every county. The value of
reserves in rural communities is evil
dent and it has long been recognized
from experience in Germany, France
and Austria that small forests are a
source of revenue as well as pleasure
to the city dwellers. However, the
realization of that plan is in the future.
What the Legislature should do now
is to provide a way to double the pres
ent reserves. Some members of the
Legislature have presented bills along
their own lines which will help in the
general plan, but there should be a
definite appropriation scheme.
The income of the forests is to go to
the State school fund. Some day
Pennsylvania will not have the Won
derful natural resources that now yield
the bulk of her revenue and the lib
eral appropriations for education that
have attracted attention to this State
will have to be made from other in
come. This is all the more reason why
the State should expand it's forest re-
serves. The woodlands will furnish
funds. the trees will conserve the water
supply and the State supervision will
keep down the fire loss not only on
State lands. but on the adjoining, as
has been done with marked success
the last half decade.

RF everyone could see the letters

i the enactment of local option and
commending the State Executive to
still greater efforts in behalf OF the
Williams bill that are hourly pouring
into the office of Governor Brum-
baugh at the State Capitol there would

The shower of mail matter is evil

the question. They are with the Gov
ernor. Men and organizations without
regard to party affiliation have lined
up back of DR.. Brumbaugh and what
he has done in behalf of local option
is given approval regardless of the
way he has done it. This is fight to
n finish against the most arrogant of
interests that has ever interfered with
legislation.
The people are aroused and they

And that is putting the situation
mildly, indeed.
The logical and economical thing to
do. it would seem at first glance, would
be to provide a place that would serve
to house all manner of contagious dis
eases that it may be found desirable
to isolate. This ought to be feasible
for smallpox as we'll as other patients.
There can be no good reason for two
