UP TO PROPERTY OWNERS

TINE Harrisburg Gas Company
stands ready to lay its Front
street main in the grass plots
along the eastern curbline, instead of
cutting through the newly-laid as
phalt for the purpose, If the property
owners will agree. 1t is now up to the
owners to grant this permission.
Many of them already have expressed
willingness to do this. Unanimous
consent is required and no time should
be lost in signing the petition. The
gas company is entitled to early action.
The piping should be put down with
out delay.
Few of the grass plots are in con-
dition to be seriously injured by the
excavations. The company will put
back the ground in the condition in
which it was found n ever so will
come off the gamer. for grass plot
excavation is much cheaper than tear
ing up and relaying asphalt.
Once the matter was drawn to the
attention of the company it displayed
admirable readiness to comply with
PopAAS AAA Oh IL SuDJGCI.
What applies to Front street should
apply to every paved thoroughfare in
the city. The asphalt should not be
cut except when absolutely necessary.
Ample warning is always given pre-
vious to the paving of any street and
council would be justified in refusing
permission to tear up a street within
three OF four years after paving, ex-
nept for necessary repairs. 1t is false
economy for any corporation or for
the city itself to wait until after q
thoroughfare is paved to lay piping
necessary for the convenience Of resi-
dents. The money spent on ~relayine
the asphalt would more than pay the
interest charges on the money invested
II the work were lone in advance Of
the paving.

S~ug0eSfS Taxing ON e

and their spiritual obligations, that day
the liquor business is doomed.
Suggests Taxing on Wealth
An important subject to be discussed
at the convention will be the sugges-
ton of Senator Morris Sheppard, Of
Texas, that there be a system of taxa
ton bearing on wealth rather thar on
the masses. as a substitute for the
present revenue tax system so far as it
pertains to the collection of a tax on
liquors. OF course, the government
will lose large sums of money as a re-
suit of the national adoption of proht-
bition. but wise men are of the opinion
that even should no steps be taken to
provide a means for raising a revenue
to TAX the place of that lost through
prohibition, the country could well af-
ford to stand the financial loss in view
of the certain betterment of society
and the saving for investment in profit
able lines of the millions upon millions
now spent annually for liquor. 1t is
stated that in prohibition Kansas
alone, $40, 900, 900 a year is saved to
useful purpose.
A prominent speaker recently said:
AT least $500 children are suffering
industrial abuses to-day because of the
liquor traffic. The father has lost his
job through drink. The children are
hungry, and they must be clothed, so
they GO into the mills and the fac
tories. The liquor traffic stands in the
middle of the road of American child
hood to-day, and it must be removed"
This is another powerful cas- why
the saloon must go.
Ideal Convention City
Atlantic City, with its population of
10000 is ar ideal convention city. 1t
is one of the most cosmopolitan and
popular watering places in our land,
and is frequently spoken of as the
playground of the world. The famous
boardwalk, eight niles long, and from
twenty to sixty feet in width, is one
of the nos democratic places imag-
Unable. At times it is so crowded as to
make walking difficult. Here one
~jostles against a millionaire at one mo-
ment and a pauper the next; a Gull
tured gentleman and a lonely outcast
are often in closest contact. Almos
every country has its representative,
and in the countless shops thai border
this remarkable promenade may be
found the goods of every land. Bril-
liantly lighted at night, the scene is
one of indescribable beauty. A tramp
along this wonderful boulevard, with
its kaleidoscope changes, is an ex-
perience of a lifetime. At the height
of the seasol, there are at times fifty
thousand people in the surf. At the
time of the convention, Atlantic City
will be at its best. Almost every form
of amusement will be provided, and
bathing, sailing and fishing may be en-
joyed under almost ideal conditions.
Special trains from every State will
bring their quota of passengers to the
convention. Many of the most elo-
quent orators of the country will be on
the program. It is planned to send a
committee of not less than five thou
sand persons to Washington to pre-
sent to President Wilson a series of
resolutions which 1t is hoped to have
adopted by the convention.

A LOBBY NOT DISTURBED

NONSUL A. B. COOKE, Patras,
~ Greece, in a report just filed,
speaking of the Greek currant
trade with the United States, says that
perhaps three-fourths of the currants
shipped to the United States are of the
lowest five grades out of a total of
eighteen grades Of currants offered on
the local market"
The lobby on currants which was
conducted around the Capitol at Wash
ington when the Underwood tariff law
was being framed did not receive the
censure of Democratic legislative
purists during the so-called lobby in
vestigation, probably owing to the fact
that the importers of ~currants sought
a lower duty. which was in harmony
with views of the majority of the tariff
thinkers. The duty was cut 25 per cent.
The importation of dried currants for
July, 1914, the month before the Euro
pean war, amounted to 1,763,216
pounds, compared with 766.3SS pounds
in July. 1913.
These low grade currants displaced
the American article to Just that ex-
tent and depressed the market price
Of such domestic currents as were
sold.

A BLOW AT AN OLD CHARITY
ABUSE

lFrom the Philadelphia Bulletin
An ancient and shabby kind of
graft habitually practiced on the
state by som well-to-do relatives of
insane or feeble minded patients is
likely to be eliminated under the
terms of Whitaker bill which has be-
come a law with the approval of the
Governor. 1t provides for the col
lection of board for such persons at
the State hospitals and asvlums
Wherever they have estates or fami-
hes able to make payment, and the
Attorney Generals Department is spe-
cifically charged with the duty of
making the collections.
For years the law has declared that
no person should be accepted at the
State institutions board free, or. that
is to say, at the joint expense of the
State and the county from which they
were committed, if they owned suffi-
clent property or had relatives able
TO pay for them at the uniform rate
OF 30 a week. But this act has been
largely a dead letter because there was
no adequate machinery for enforcing
It's provisions. Out of the ten thou
sand patients in these hospitals last
year, only 377 came within this class.
the rest being termed INDECENT and
supported by their counties and the
State treasury through the respec-
tive payment of $1.75 and $2.5O for
each one out of the public funds.
But investigation by the commit
tee on lunacy by the State Board Of
Charities led to the conclusion that
many more ought to be paid for also.
1t was found in some cases thai the
so-called INDECENT" owned estates in
the form of legacies and even had
bank accounts standing in their
names, while others had wealthy rela-
tives who could well afford to main
tain them. Yet it was difficult to
collect the money in the absence of a
definite process, being more costly
and troublesome than the results
would justify.
Now these obstacles are removed by
the definite delegation of authority
to the States legal officers and a Wig
orous effort is to be made to collect
sums past due where possible as well
as for maintenance hereafter. 1t Is
~conservatively estimated that the
amoun derived from this source an
nually will total more than a quarter
of a million dollars, as similar laws
in New York, Massachusetts and Ohio
have resulted in the yearly collection
of from two hundred to three hun
dred and fifty thousand dollars. AS a
neal of terminating a wholly repre-
hensible abuse OF, the States charity,
the law is entitled to hearty endorse
ment.

HOOP CYCLE NEW VEHICLE

Something distinctly novel in the
way of a pleasure vehicle for boys is
described, with illustration. in the June
Popular Mechanics Magazine. 1t is
bridge the gap between the tricycle.
and bicycle, furnishing an endless
amount of fun and stimulus for exer-
else. The device consists of a y in.
pipe welded into a large hoop, sus-
pended within which on sheave roll
ers is q yoke carrying a seat. Extend
ing to the rear of this is a two-wheel-
ed balancing gear which is raised
from the ground when the rider leans
forward. The machine is propelled
by the feet, the boy running until
he gets up sufficient speed to carry
him along, or rolling the cycle by an
occasional push with his feet.

THE VALUE OF EDUCATION

TN talking of the opportunities
offered for college men in rail-
reading, Judge Robert S. Lovett,
chairman of the executive committee
of /. the Union Pacific Railroad, told
Yale men, whom he addressed the
other day, that a college diploma
would not shield a man from any OF
the 500 and CRIME and hardship in
cident TO the service. He showed also
that very few Of the big men in rail-
reading to-day had college diplomas.

A @ FOR FARMERS

TINE argument hat low duties give
foreign producers the advantage
in our domestic market because
Of cheapened labor has never been
refuted. But the effect of the Demo-
cratic free trade policy is rapidly de-
veloping a condition even more to be
feared.
The commerce reports and informa-
ton from other sources go to show
that many Americans are finding it
profitable to invest capital in foreign
countries with a view to marketing
their product in the United States. The
erection of dried egg plants in China
is an example. The establishment of
purchasing and shipping agencies in
Canada for cattle is another. Agri-
cultural implements, placed on the free
list by the Democrats in an attempt
to fool the farmer. are being manufac-
tured in canada with American CAPT.
tai and sen across the border. The
farmer is not getting his farm ma
chinery any cheaper. The American
meat packers operating in Argentina
are finding good pickings in our mar
ket, now that meat is on the free list.
Many other instances are at hand.
So we learn that free trade not only
develops foreign competition, but it
beckons American capital to foreign
climes which, under a protective tariff.
would find ready investment at home
and give employment to American
labor, which, in turn, would enhance
the power of the American working
man to purchase the products of the
farmer.

Grating heads less than one-third have
the sheepskin. When it comes to
trahc heads only one in every eight,
according to his figures. have gone
through college. and of forty-one ac-
counting heads thirty-fve have never
had a college diploma.
In commenting on the fact that the
railroads of the country have only a
small proportion of college men in
their employ. Judge Lovett said
There are. of course, many civil engi-
neers in the railroad service. nearly
all of h are college graduates, and
many mechanical engineers. who are
also college graduates; but these are
not included in the statistics except
where they have become department
heads"
That the diploma is no shield from
hard work, every college graduate
who has succeeded in after life knows.
That hard work will take a man of
little education very far in the world
is also true. but college training ought
to give any young man a great handi-
cap over his competitor who possesses
little more than natural talent and a
desire to get there" This is the
value of college training-that it
teaches n how to- think and how to
work. If it has not done hat the
diploma Of graduation is not worth
the paper upon which it is written
and the student has wasted four years
of his life.
The college man worth his salt soon
why the ceremony that marks
the end of his student days is called
commencement"

NEW people who have not giver
l., the matter attention, realize the
giant strides which have beer
made in the progress of national pro.
hibition in this country during the last
few years. So rapid has been this de-
velopment, that it no longer seems tic
be an idle dream that this will be q
saloonless nation by or soon after
1920. The prohibition forces, encour-
aged by their increasing influence and
numbers, are making heroic efforts to
free our and from the curse of strong
drink; and their remarkable successes
have emboldened them to go forward
enthusiastically and with every indica-
ton of ultimate triumph.
In many States there has been a
noticeable weakening of the liquor
forces. There are already eighteen pro-
htbition States: Maine, Kansas, North
Dakota, Oklahoma, Mississippi, Geor-
gie, North Carolina, Tennessee, West
Virginia, Virginia, Colorado. Oregon
Washington, Arizona, Alabama, Arkan-
of the population Of the United
States live under prohibition; and more
than IL per cent. of the area is pro-
hibition territory. There are fewer
saloons south of the Mason and Dixor
line than there are in the city oil
Chicago.
A noticeable triumph of the temper.
ance adherents was the declaration
made by the knights Templar of Penn.
s~ylvania during their recent conclave
in Philadelphia, that no one addicted
to ~intemperance, or engaged in the
whisky business, would be allowed tc
become a member of hat order.
Eyes of Country Focusing
The eyes of the country will be TO-
cused on the great national convention
of the Anti-Saloon League of America
which will meet in Atlantic City, July
60, and which will be attended by
delegates from every State of the
Union. Every church, Sunday School
young peoples society and temperance
organization of the country is invited
to send one or more representatives
The meetings will be held on "Young's
Million Dollar Pier" which has foui
large auditoriums, with accommoda.
tons for lot less than $4,000 persons
1t is quite certain that not less than
this number, possibly many more, will
attend the convention.
At the time of this meeting of the
Anti-Saloon League of America, the
Catholic Prohibition League will also
meet in Atlantic City, and these two
powerful bodies will work together In
the utmost harmony for the attain.
ment of the important object each has
in view. On one of the days of the
convention an enthusiastic union meet.
ing will be held, at which time Cath.
olics and Protestants will vie with each
other in their efforts to say and dc
that which will hasten the day wher
the United States will be a ~saloonless
nation. When the churches OF oul
land become a unit in the attainment
of this purpose, and men vote in &C.
cordance with their honest convictions
