THE SuEFRAGE NOTE
ID ETURNS from all over the Stat

ID ETURNS from all over the State
IN on the Woman's Suffrage amend
ment indicate that the greatest
factor in its defeat was the apathy
of the women themselves.
"Mr. Dooley," in his homely phil
osophy, some years ago voiced the
opinion that 'wimin1l git the vote
jist as soon as enough of them want
it, In Pennsylvania, as we'll as in
Massachusetts and New York. evil
IDENTIFY not enough women wanted the
ballot to carry the movement to sue
cess.
The suffragist campaign managers
il they were aware of this apathy on
the part of women in the campaign
waged in their behalf, either under
estimated its extent or it's effect. In
stead of pushing the suffrage resolu
ton through the Legislature and con-
centrating their energies upon edu-
eating men to their viewpoint the suf
frage leaders, might have gained time
in the end by taking two or four years
more in which to gain the undivided
support of the women, in an unanimous
demand for the ballot. To be sure
other factors entered into yesterdays
vote, but it looks as though the suf-
frage issue was pushed to conclusion
q little ahead of time.

THE JONES MEMORIAL

IND you notice in last evenings s
- Telegraph a picture of the beau
tiful new entrance and fountain
erected by the colored people of Har-
risburg to the memory of DR.. William
Harrison Jones at the Twelfth street
Fairgrounds?
If not, hunt up your copy and take
ia look at it.
There is a lesson in it for you, who
ever you are.
Good citizenship is carved into every
stone of it,
DIR. Jones himself was a worthy citi-
zen. lie left his impress upon the
community. The good deeds he did
live after him.
His close friends-and they were
not, for the most part, the wealthy
men of town-desired to perpetuate
his memory. So they put their heads
and their doHars-together and the
beautiful fountain and park entrance
is the result.
In this these leaders of the colored
people of the community have set an
example that ought to bring the blush
of shame to the cheeks of their white
brethren. With one exception, this
Jones fountain is the only memorial
of its kind in the city parks. There
ought to be many such.
Who will be the next to recognize
the need and go and do likewise?

TRY 1T OUT!
BY Wing DinGer

Well, election day is DER
Some lose, others gain,
Winners say II told you So"
Losers do explain
In a hundred different ways
How they lost the fight
That began some months ago
And wound up last night.
One would think twould hurt so much
To put up scrap
And lose out would one want
To get off the map.
But when next election day
Comes around, you'll see
That the losers, once again,
In the scrap will be.
And we folks in daily life
Can be taught some tricks
By this yearly contest called
Game of Politics"
L we only would forget
Life's scraps lost to-day
And determined to win out
Fight to-morrows fray.

Some years ago the passing to one
control of the Pennsylvania and Cam
bria Steel Companies would probably
have excited violent opposition. Now
it is recognized that in the face of the
existence of the United States Steel
Corporation and many independent

The tax bill, which was passed in
the closing hours of the legislature,
was a compromise between the house
and senate measures, the result of con
ference committee work, after both
branches became deadlocked A peru
sal of the full text of the bill shows
that the act restores offsets up to
$1,000 and exempts from taxation book
accounts of merchants and others,
which do not bear interest, also ex-
empts money loaned at a rate Of in
terest not TO exceed 5 per cent which
is the present law and which this act
replaces.
The law will not apply to this
year s lists, since it does not take eff
feet until January I, 1916. It is gen
orally conceded that the offset feature
will benefit the farmers. The leeisla-
ture was divided against itself on the
question of offsets, the house being
strongly in favor, while the senate was
