HUGHES, LABOR RECORD


DY my past ye shall judge me-" is
ID in substance, what Governor
Hughes has been telling labor
audiences during the past week.
Referring to the charges that he had
vetoed certain bills while Governor of
New York, he said. II will admit it
cheerfully, and I may further state
principle which 1 would continue to
apply If were elected President That
is, examined the proposals that were
made as thoroughly as l knew how,
and what thought was right favored,
and when I believed the measure was
wrong 1 did not attempt to gain votes
by favoring it,
Mr.. Hughes has pointed out how, as
Governor, he accomplished enactment
after enactment regulating and pro-
hibiting child labor; compelling ventil-
alton and sanitary arrangements in
factories; limiting the hours of labor;
fixing an eight-hour day for railroad
telegraph and telephone operators en-
gagged in dispatching rains; compell-
ing cash payment of wages, making it
include additional concerns; how he
reorganized the Labor Department
procured the creation of the Bureau
of Mercantile Inspection, and appoint
ed labor man of proved ability and
worth as its head.
Mr.. Hughes, it will be remembered
was enthusiastically endorsed at the
conclusion of his service as Governor
as friend of labor by the official or
gan of the Federation of Labor in New
York State.

1t was a splendid tribute which Mr..
Schwab paid his chief lieutenant at
the big Steelton plant, but nobody
doubts that Quincy Bent will demon
strate his worth as the moving spirit
of the present and future Steelton. A
native of the borough. the son of the
beloved ironmaster whose name will
always be associated with Steelton. and
himself the admirably-e equipped master
of an important industrial plant. Mr..
Bent already enjoys the good will of
this entire community.

When a prophet like Charles NJ
Schwab does not hesitate to foretell the
future greatness of Central Pennsylva-
mia and the Atlantic seaboard as the
very heart of the steel industry in the
United States, those of us who have
had faith in Harrisburg are encouraged
to keep right on doing the things
which have brought the city into the
limelight as an up-to-date municipality
fit to possess the seat of government
of an imperial Commonwealth.

Advertising An Economy

That many worthy enterprises fail
from lack of advertising" and that
every honest enterprise can be tre-
mendously developed and economical
by advertising" were striking state
ments made by Eldridge Reeves John
son, president of the Victor Talking
Machine Company, in a discussion of
the proposed price maintenance legis-
IatiOn.

THE CITY AND THE STATE
MYTH view to getting into per
/ wv sonal touch with the State au

"TITH q view to getting into per-
wv sonal touch with the State au-
thorities in the matter of the
development of the Capitol Park ex-
tension area, Edwin S. Herman, pres
sion. has had some correspondence
with Governor Brumbaugh.
AS might have been expected of
one who is himself deeply interested
in working out this important problem,
the Governor promptly responded to
Mr.. Herman's letter and has indicated
his purpose to Immediately arrange
for a date on which the Planning
Commission and the Board of Public
Grounds and Buildings, consisting of
the Governor, the State Treasurer and
the Auditor General, might have a
further conference on the subject.
Governor Brumbaugh happily ex-
presses the attitude of the State to-
ward the city in this paragraph:
am with you deeply interested
in the proper working out of this
ig making pcSlSfsl pcSlpitol park park and 'itW it's exc @
tension an Integral unit in the de-
velopmept of a beautiful Harris--
burg, because q beautiful city will
mean a beautiful capital. There
ought to be no differences OF opin-
ion here which honest men cannot
work out and adjust, and we shall
be very happy, indeed, to cooper
ate in any way we can with you.
Through the conferences of the
State and city authorities it should be
easily possible to develop a compre-
hensive scheme of improvement which
will be at once dignified and in har-
monys with the thought of those who
have been working toward this end
for several years. Having once chosen
a landscape architect of the proper
caliber, the selection of the best form
of treatment of the old and new sec
tions of Capitol Park and the imping-
ing territory of the city ought not to
be a difficult matter.
Governor Brumbaugh will doubtless
want to submit to the next Legisla-
ture some definite plan with his rec
concentrations and the time is grow
ing short in which a study of the
problem must be made by the land
scape architect who will be chosen to
do the work. Already the young en-
gineers of State College have made a
survey of the property involved and
upon this data the landscape designer
will be able to base his conclusions
without loss of time.
Harrisburg has been doing its part
admirably for several years and the
good faith of the city in its attitude
toward the Commonwealth has again
been shown in the determination of
our citizens to further demonstrate
the public spirit of this community in
the building of a splendid modern
hotel. Backed by an enlarged Cham
Der of Commerce and other civic or
ganizations there is no limit to the
proper development of the city and
those in authority on Capitol Hill real
ize now as never before what an active
and progressive community has grown
up around the noble structure in the
heart of the city.

A fishing and hunting lodge Is located
at this point and IL was the purpose
of the party to spend a couple OF days
fishing there. Just as they arrived at
the lodge, a strap gave way and al
lowed the pole OF the blackboard to
drop. The horses became frightened
and ran away, precipitating the oc-
cupants OF the blackboard to the
ground. Miss Purcell was caught be-
tween a wheel OF the conveyance and
a rock and suffered internal injuries
from which she died.

tor drove his car as close to the lodge
as was possible and to that point, the

MADE A RECORD RUN

One of the most interesting events
pulled on on the 4th was the run made
by the firemen
The run was scheduled for nine o.
clock and precisely at that time the
truck left the fire station and started
on its run down Superior avenue The
run was made from the fire hall TO
Moberg's corner and the firemen had
two streams OF water playing in A
seconds 1'he truck was in the hands
OF VIM. Cummings and, considering
the fact that Superior avenue was lin
ed up with many small children he
did remarkably well in bringing the
truck to the hydrant and bringing il
TO dead stop at that place so that
the firemen could make the connec-
tions. II was the best trial run made
by the fremen.
