NEW YORK. Jan. 5.-Neither
Henry Ford nor William J. Bryan

met Ford on receipt OF a tele-
graphic request for the conference.
They were closeted together for
over an hour. Bryan then resumed
TO Washington. ID. c.
THE mere discussion OF peace is
in itself an advantage" Bryan said
In reply to question concerning
his opinion OF the Ford peace mis-
sion.
Ford declared his opinion on the
cause OF war has materially chang
ed He had been of the opinion,
he said. that bankers and munition
manufacturers were responsible.
He returns. he said. with the
opinion that the men who do the
fighting are mainly responsible for
letting those who rule them do their
thinking.
Republics are no better than
monarchies in this respect" he said
significantly.
Ford said that, despite reports to
the contrary, his party of peacers
were harmonious when he left, and
that all plans originally made are
being carried out. He had not In.

Grandmother kept her hair beau
tifully darkened. glossy and abund-
ant with a brew of Sage Tea and
sulphur. Whenever her hair fell
out or took on that dull. faded or
streaked appearance. this simple
mixture was applied with wonder
full effect. By asking at any drug
store for 'Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Compound you will get a
large bottle OF this old-time recipe,
ready TO use. for about so cents.
This simple mixture can be depend

and falling hair.
A well-known downtown druggist
says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur. because il darkens SO
naturally and evenly that nobody
can tell 1t has been applied--it's SO
easy to use, too. You simply
dampen comb or soft brush and
draw 1t through your hair. taking
one strand at time. By morning
the gray hair disappears: after an
other application or two, It is re-
stored TO Its natural color and
looks glossy. soft and abundant.

We have noted disposition on the

scrutiny the bills and costs resulting
from the enlarged activities of mag

Steelton case would seem to suggest

Lack of Training Folly
From the New YORK Sun, l

lE IOI1I Jl6 NC" 1OTh Gun
The Active Service Auxiliary of the
National Guard of New York State,
which has opened headquarters at the
Seventy-first Regiment Armory, re-
ceived yesterday from Theodore
Roosevelt an expression Of his cordial
approval of the principle upon which
this relief work is founded. The Col
onel takes occasion to condemn the
national folly in the matter of un-
preparedness. His letter follows in
part
Thanks to our national folly in not
having provided a system of universal
training and universal service, any ac-
ton taken in support of the country
is at present necessarily taken at the
expense of the most patriotic and high
minded citizens. 1t is therefore a
matter of duty as we'll as of common
sense patriotism to help organizations
such as yours which endeavor so to
provide that too heavy a burden does
not fall on the wives and children of
the men who go to the front"

the scattered departments in this
city and elsewhere, then the State
must erect suitable office building
for the bureaus and divisions. but
that office building must be located in
this city and not in Philadelphia.
Arguments have been put forth to
the general effect that Philadelphia
and the neighboring counties consti-
tute large part of the population of
branch Capitol" in the metropolis is
absolutely required. This is too tri-
fling to justify serious consideration.
Because Philadelphia happens to be
the first city of the State is no reason
at all for splitting the seat of govern
ment between the constitutional Capt.
tai and the big city on the east.
This newspaper has invariably stood
for the best interests OF Philadelphia
as the metropolis of the Common
wealth. These columns have contain
ed frequent editorials and news mat
ter intended to advance the interests
OF that city. We have contended con-
sistently and always that the State
should do everything possible to give
its chief city and only seaport its
proper place in the galaxy Of American
cities. Our attitude has been that OF
good neighbor under all circumstances,
but we do not believe that those who
are back of the branch Capitol sug-
gestion are acting wisely or with due
regard for the rights of the State at
large.

THAT "BRANCH CAPIroIn

NF course, any protest from Har-
" Hsburg against scheming for
the concentration of State de-
partments in a proposed branch Capt.
tor' in Philadelphia will be interpret
ed as purely selfish. Such pueriIe
criticism might be expected from GER
tain Philadelphia sources, but that
there should be such Interpretation of
a reasonable objection from any quar-
ter in this city-familiar with the
Capitol conditions-is somewhat sur
prising.
1t is not the first time that efforts
have been put forth to scatter the
places of authority in PENNSYLVANIA
outside their national habitation. For
years the Telegraph has protested
against the peripatetics of the su-
preme Court which sits in Philadel-
phia when it is not hesitating briefly
in Harrisburg or Pittsburgh. We re-
peat that the higher tribunal should be
permanently located in the Capitol.
where luxurious and adequate and
ample quarters have been provided for
that body.
1t is no secret that there has been
more or less of an effort for several
years to detach from the Capitol as
many departments as possible, under
one pretext or another, and locate
these branches in Philadelphia.
And we are supposed to sit supinely
in the shadow of the State House
here and permit without protest the
scheming of a few Philadelphians to
erect in that city at. State expense a
building to cost half million dollars
or more for those bureaus which hap
pen now to be located in the metro
polls and which in many cases ought
to be right here in the Capitol build
ing If such branch Capitol" is
authorized for Philadelphia, we pre-
dict that it will be a comparatively
short time until the building was en-
larged and still other departments
transported bodily to that city. such
an arrangement would only contribute
to lost motion, inefficiency and enor-
nous expense. We do not believe that
the people of Pennsylvania will stand
for such scheme once it is under
stood.
If it is thought inadvisable to en-
large the present Capitol buildins
eastwardly in order to accommodate

Roasting, Frying Hot

The day was roasting, frying hot,
Near boiling point lay on my cot,
Not knowing whittier way to turn,
Lest I my hands and feet should burn;
The pavements were ell sizzling red,
And folks across them lightly sped,
In hopes they'd find a cool retreat,
Escaping thus the blistering heat;
'Tis said that apples burst and fell,
From mountain, hill-gap, field and dell,
And filed the streams that we must
cross,
With boiling, steaming applesauce.
And further, though this tale you
doubt.
Three new hotels warped inside out,
Which fact in Bostontown occurred,
As Holmes in witty rhymes averred.
But let US hope, this wave of heat
Ere long to southlands will retreat,
And warm the folks in Flora's land,
Who idly walk along the strand
or the Atlantic, or who rove
Through the all-fragrant orange grove.

A Proper Expenditure

Thirty-three years ago the poor
people of France workingmen,
tIadesmen, shopgirls raised over
100000 francs to pay for the Statue
Of Liberty which they gave to the
people of the United States. At first
there was no place to set up this
beautiful statue. Again by popular
subscription, this time in the United
States, a fund was raised sufficient to
build the pedestal upon which it has
stood for 80 years. And to-day the
people of the United States have been
asked to contribute toward a fund that
shall provide for the nightly illumina-
ton OF the statue. 1t is fitting that
the people of the country should
themselves raise this fund to pay for
the installation of the lighting plant.
Given by liberty-loving people to a
nation that stands for freedom, the
statue embodies this great ideal in a
very real sense.

Regiment as Melting Pot
TNeW Y ork Sun. I

Mayor Mitchell is quite right in de-
clining to approve a plan for the or
ganization of a regiment composed en-
tirely of citizens of German birth. His
reasons are sound, and they do not
question the American patriotism, or
the exclusive devotion to the American
flag, of the men who would fill the
ranks of such regiment.
The same obvious objection would
apply to a military organization made
up wholly of citizens of British birth,
or of Italian born citizens or of Rus
sian born.
1t would apply equally to a regi-
ment composed entirely of Mayhower
descendants.
Our flag should mean the fusion of
American citizenship, not the differ
entiation or classification of racial ele-
ments of that citizenship.
