Think IL Over

The weekly newspaper promotes
the interests OF the town I'm which II
is published to such an extent that
1t becomes impossible to place an es-
innate upon it's worth There is no
enterprise that does so much for the
corporation or the individual citizen
as the paper. 1t stands opposed to
the town knocker, the town kicker.
the town fanatic and the town drones.
IL stands for action as against dry
rot. II stands for progress as against
stagnation. IL is every ready to COM
bat the schemes OF vIsionaries and as
ready to aid the constructive plans of
the wise and level-headed citizens. It
is for the upbuilding of the commun-
ity The paper has not yet come into
its own, however, because II is never
appreciated to the extent OF its worth
by the people at large. Yet when the
battles are to be fought for town or
county a rush is made to the news
paper Office always to find the loyal
editor ready, frequently without hope
Of reward. Many other enterprises
are encouraged by a bonus, but rare
ly is the newspaper offered any such
help and still more often not given
the support IL is entitled to. Com
munities frequently lose sight of their
real benefactor when they fail to re-
cognize the weekly Journal as such.
The editor and his paper stand as the
bulwark of defense against the at
tacks Of evil or designing schemes af-
fecting the good of the Individual of
the town For these and other rea-
sons the newspapers OF the town and
county should receive the support of
the public at large I'm a very liberal
degree, for II Is really the most i'm
portant business enterprise OF the
community.

Weather

When the frost is on the window and
the kitchen pail is froze;
When the little icy needles come with
every breath that blows;
When the chilblains make us groan
aloud and cold feet give us pain
It's safe to bet that we all wish for
summer time again.
For while VIC sweat and stew around
in breezy summer clothes
It's an easy thing to cool off and for
get our earthly woes.
But IT'S different IN the winter when
the world is full Of ice
And the weather Is as nard TO beat as
any loaded dice.
We may boast about our climate and
about our spring and fall
But the balmy days OF summer are
the best ones after all.

that there are not enough regular

guided and it's policy is determined
by the independent voters.
What seems perfectly evident TO me
is this, that II you made rough reck-

only about one-third OF the Republi-

would also have to admit that about
two-thirds of the Democratic party is
progressive.

Take n Look nt Canada

Some OF the Tories who have been
scolding President Wilson for not
keeping the American dinner pail full
should be greatly enlightened by
reading a little industrial history now
being made in Canada. II would re-
veal, for instance that the Grand
Trunk railroad proposes to reduce
the wages OF $4,000 employees. It
might be added that the earnings of
the Canadian Pacific have fallen OF
many millions since the outbreak Of
the war. Canadian cities have hosts
Of unemployed men I'm spite Of the in
dustries that have been stimulated
by the demand for war materials.
This i'm Canada, the state where

missions are not treading on the heels
Of the benefcent rulers OF big busi-
ness. With all these wholesome
Canadian laws, carefully designed to
promote and encourage expansion of
trade, Canada still has a depression.
Why not blame Mr.. Wilson for the
depression in Canada as we'll as that
in the United states? Since any
Democratic executive must bear the
brunt Of crop failures and panics

Facts for the Ananias Club

This news item from n high tariff
contemporary Is respectfully COM
mended to the Ananias Club of the
Schulykll Valley, sometimes also
known as the Manufacturers Asso-
citation of Montgomery county:
"The Reading (Pa) Knitting Mills
OF Charles f.. Leippe are being op-
Grated on full time with full com
pletement OF hands In the coarse

great Is the pressure on the mills

IL would be interesting to have an

the industries OF the Schuylkill Val
ley in January, 1915, under a Demo
cratic administration and tariff, and
In January. 1908, under Republl-

President Wilson might have gone
further than he did when he told his
audience at indianapolis that tho Ro-
publican party is still more OF min
ority party than tho Democratic, and
that "as between tho minorities ]
think we can claim To belong TO the
larger minority"
The World has complied the Official
vote for Representatives I'm Congress
in November These returns show
that the Democratic party poiied a
larger percentage of tho total Demo-
cratic Republican Progressive vote
than IL polled In 1912. and that the
Republicans and Progressives com
bined pollcd smaller percentage
than In 1912.
In spite of the great Republican
gains in the House due to tho return
of the Roosevelt voters to their old
allegiance, the fact remains that the
Democratic vote was relatively larger
than IL was two years ago.
In 1912 the Democrats pollod ap-
proximately 45 per cent OF the total
Democratic Republican Progressive O
vote. The Republicans polled 20 per
cent and the Progressives polled 80
per cent. In 1914 the Democratic
Congressional candidates pollcd 47.4S
per cent of this total vote, the Re-
publicans polled 1850 per cent. and
the Progressives polled 6.92 per cent.
This shows Democratic gain of
nearly 2a per cent, u Republican
gain of 2l1h per cent and u Progress
sive loss of nearly % per cent. IL
shows also combined Republican
Progressive loss of 2M per cent.
Tho official returns from tho var
ious districts Indicate a total Demo-
cratic vote for members of Congress
OF 5.276,707, a total Republican vote
of 5,06S,923. and total Progressive
vote of 769,S63. In addition, 153, ,O56
votes were cast for Democratic Pro-
gressive fusion candidates and 253,432
votes were cast for Republican, Pro-
gressive fusion candidates. There is
no basis on which this fusion vote can
be apportioned. But It is plain that
at best the total Progressive vote was
well below million. as against A.
l19,507 two years ago.
There were no general Republican
gains In the popular vote I'm 1914 ut
the expense OF the Democratic party.
The Republican gains were all at the
expense of the Progressive party, and
even the return of the lost sheep left
the Republicans far below the Demo-
Gratis I'm actual numbers.
Various masters of political mys-
terry I'm Washington choose to inter-
pret the Presidents indianapolis
speech as an announcement OF his
candidacy for denomination I'm 1916.
Such an announcement on Mr.. Will
sons part would be superfuous. So
far as the rank and file of the Demo-
cratic party are concerned he Ia their
candidate, and they have no second
choice. The only man who can pre-
vent the denomination OF Woodrow
Wilson is Woodrow Wilson-The

Domestic prices of this grain have al

European consumers are willing TO

The speech OF President Wilson at
indianapolis is more notable for its
tone than for any new propositions
advanced. The tone is that of a party
leader confident in the future and
prepared to face the country on the
strength of his party's record. No
person In the Presidents position
could have made broader claim for
the organization with which he is
identified. Whatever else be said
about the speech II will not be said
by any Democrat, and still less by
any Republican. that the President
has refrained from doing justice to
the Democracy. And in all the speech
was one OF the best ever made by the
