The Searchlight
AN EDUCATIONAL RESTAURANT

An educational lunchroom has
lately been opened at 139 Center
street, Manhattan by the New York
Board of Health for the benefit of its
employees. 1t supplies pure food at
cost prices, but the distinctive feature
of each bill of fare is that it gives the
total caloric and protein value of
each article contained upon II.
Important facts concerning diet
are printed upon the back of the
cards and specimen menus indicate the
contents of a properly balanced meal.
The menus are frequently changed
to give the desired variety and, as the
real value of each new article is
shown, a few months patronage of
this restaurant will give a patron a
general idea of the comparative nu-
tritive properties of all the food prod
ucts in general use.

OSWALD GARRISON WILLARD,
publisher of the New York
Evening Post was born on Ger
man soil and had a German father.
For that reason we recommend the
perusal of a speech he made Satur-
day at Stockbridge, Mass, to all Amer
leans of hyphenated tendencies what
soever their origin.
Foreigners becoming American citi-
zens should be made to understand
Mr.. Willard said, that there can be no
divided citizenship or loyalty or all
legiance under the American flag; that
no one can accept political obligations
here while at heart loyal to another
social system, another entity or an
other code of laws.
In opening his speech Mr.. Willard
quoted from an address made by Carl
Schurz at the celebration of the latter's
SEVENTEEN birthday, sixteen years ago.
in which Mr.. Schurz said that no mat
ter how warm the affections German
Americans had held for their native
land they had never permitted those
affections to interfere with their du-
ties as American citizens. nor to Sc
duce them to use their power in Am
erican politics. for foreign ends.
How amazed Carl Schurz would
be to return to us to-day to find that
that has come to pass which he deem
ed inconcefvable." said Mr.. Willard
that GermanAmerican affection for
their native land has interfered with
the proper attitude of the great bulk
of these toward the land of their adop-
ton. He would find to his horror that

A UNITED PARTY

TTOw devious are the ways of
/ i political argument and to what
illogical conclusions may facts
be marshaled.
Some years ago when it chanced
that few contests marked the Re-
publican primaries, Democratic news
papers told the public that DauphIn
county was dominated by bosses, that
the young voter had no chance, that
political independence was punished
by oblivion and that reward came only
through subservience to the MA
chine" The restoration of the ma
chinery of the party to the rank and
file and the open primary, with free
field for all corners, were demanded in
clarion tones by those who hoped to
profit by putting their political op-
ponents in a bad light,
This year, with the woods full of
Republican candidates, are these
critics of former years as fulsome with
their praise as they were vehement
with their censure? Are they telling
the voters that all must be well within
the Republican party and that at last
the rank and file have come into their
own?
All, no. That wouldn't be good
politics" from the standpoint of the
little band of Democratic politicians
whose only hope for. power in this
county has been dissension within the
ranks. of Republicans They are tell
ing us that the Republican party is
split" that faction is allied against
faction and that the primary contests
will be carried to the general cleo
tions
That may be their belief or their
hope but it is far from the fact. The
truth is that the Republican party
was never in any year more closely
united than at this time. To be sure
there are candidates aplenty in the
field for the Republican nominations.
but that, to quote from the aforemen-
toned critics. indicates only a healthy
condition within the party and an as
surance of victory at the polls. AS
one prominent candidate put it in dis
cussing the matter, 'ff Republicans
were not confident that their ticket
will sweep the county in November not
so many of them would be seeking
nominations"
That sums up the situation in a
nutshell. Whatever may be the
aspirations of leaders, the fact re-
mains that the number of Republican
candidates has been greatly increased
from the generally entertained belief
that to be nominated on the RepubIi-
can ticket in Dauphin county this Fall
is practical guarantee of election in
November.
Men do not contend vigorously for
nominations that are but empty
honors. They do not put their energies
into a primary campaign for the
privilege of leading forlorn hope.
If the primary contests are unusually
animated in Dauphin county this year
it is because the candidates feel conf
dent of victory at the general cleo
tions.
1t is settled fact that whoever is
nominated by the Republicans two
weeks hence will be elected. The party
organization will stand behind the
nominees. as it always has done. The
primary activities should be taken for
what they are-signs of a wholesome
interest in party affairs and of a sim
cere conviction that this is another
big Republican year.

BRYAN,s FUTURE PLANS


[From WiIkes-Barre Evening News1
The most sensible thing that Hon. w.

cussion of a wide and unassociated
range of subjects is that the work
that have mapped out for my remain

state that three attempts to attain

Finding that the golf situation in Ne

Hollow club has decided &c. put In a bid
for the 1916 Nebraska state tourney. The

The position Of the Country club can be

HAPPY Hollow was represented by 1855

befohe the event was held each club in

1t was agreed that at least 100 from each
club should pay 50 whether they actually

The Field club does not care TO hold

younger set is determined to have a

are equally determined to stage some big

faction can't see why professional
