GOVERNOR TROOP
ON WAY HOME
First Pennsylvania Cavalry
Breaks Camp; Plan
Reception

FL Paso, Tex, Jan. 10. - Troop c,
of Harrisburg together with the other
commands of the First Pennsylvania
Cavalry, broke camp yesterday and
departed in four sections. The route
home will be by way of Texarkana,
Memphis, Cincinnati and Pittsburgh.
Everything was loaded yesterday by
noon and shortly after the sections
left. Troop c is expected to reach
Harrisburg some time next Monday.
Lieutenant George W. II. Roberts is
in charge as Captain George c. Jack,
who is home on furlough, could not
return in time to command the troop.
Quarters for the Harrisburg troop
fiat, two horse and two sleeping cars.
Before departing the horses of the
entire regiment were inspected and
inoculated. Each troop has been
allotted 80 horses to take to the
various home stations, to be main
tanned permanently by the organiza-
ton.
be required to furnish lodging facili-
ties, and the government will furnish
forage and will employ men to care
for the animals.
Veteran soldier organizations, fire
companies of the city and other or
ganiZations will assist the Chamber of
Commerce in making arrangements
for the reception for the troop when
| it returns to this city. Committees
have been appointed, and some of
them will meet later in the week to
complete plans. AS soon as 1t is
! learned officially when Troop C will
arrive in Harrisburg, final arrange
ments will be made.

NATIONAL PROHIBITION

With only few days to continue
the present session, Congress is rush
ing through all important measures
at top speed 1t has placed the Webb
amendment on the docket for con-
gressionai action within the next few
days.
A two-thirds majority in House and
Senate will send the bill to the states
for ratification. Three-fourths of the
states-thirty-six in all-must ratify
the amendment to make it a part of
the constitution. viii the tweny-six
states now in the prohibition column
be able to influence ten others to
swing into line? The doubtful and
many of the optimistic class contend
il will not be done until 1920.
If, however, nationwide prohibition
would be a good thing for the people
in 1920. or even in 1925, how much
better would it not be for thousands
upon thousands of Americans-Old
and young-if it materialized in 1917?
Restraint and prohibition of liquor
are considered important require
ments by the leaders of all the bel
ligerent nations. They should be
much greater factors in peaceful!
country, where our efforts are bent
toward construction rather than de-
struction. Only a sober nation can
make sober-minded progress.
Local option has grown into coun-
ty option. From present indications
the Senate will pass the Webb bill
and turn it over to the states for
decision. 1t is to be hoped the ven
omOus influence of the twenty-five
remaining liquor states will not pre-
vent at least ten vi them from join
ing the progressive ranks of the
twenty-six states, thus ousting John
BarleycOrn from Uncle Sans realms.
Craftsmanship will do it now, but pet
ty politics never.

Than honored by place in history's

Whose life and acts disgrace him

And add new luster to a nations

Today beneath dishonor's filth and

Lies, ne'er to be revived in song or

But evermore, when memory recalls,
Twill silent be, and only blush for

WYE have in this country, in rount
numbers, 40 million white per
sons who were also born here. w,
have II million persons who wer,
born here, but one or both of whose
parents were born in foreign lands
We have 10 million negroes, every
one of whom is a native and born OF
native parents. Then we have "a
million citizens who were born abroad
A vast majority of the persons born
here of foreign parents are just as
much Americans as the rest of US
people who have never been interested
in old world affairs, and who have
heard little about any other country
than this, and who have been educat-
ed in the public schools of this ma
ton. Many of the foreign born citi-
zens are as patriotic and as loyal to
this government as any of us-persons
who were sincere when they renounc-
ed their allegiance to old world mon
arches, without a mental reservation.
All of these loyal Americans added
together, as they should be, make a
majority so preponderating that little
consideration ought to be shown to
the small minority of foreign sym
pathizers who are not loyal to the
nation under whose flag they claim
hA oh ,e,

small minority of traitorous citizens
can and are stirring up good deal of
trouble in this country. Some of them
have managed to be elected to high
political offices; others expect or hope
to be elected and are demagogues
pure and simple, trying to curry ia
vor with the foreign born and disloyal
voters. Some of them have failed
miserahly in this splendid country
of unrivaled opportunity, and there
fore are aggrieved at everything
American. So we ought not to try to
draw the line too fine; we ought to go
about our work of Kidding the nation

must win or our enemy will win. We

about winning; we cannot afford to

them. The work ought to be carried
on to the limit No man or woman

A WOMAN'S Liberty Loan Commit

job as large as it is noble: Namely
to persuade every woman in the Unit

Liberty Bond in the house. There is
not a household in the United States,
in these times of full employment, but
can buy one Liberty Bond for Uncle
Sam.
