SPROUL IN LEBANON
[From the Lebanon Newsl

lFrom the Lebanon NeWSI
Lebanon county should be in the
big band wagon on. election day with
vote, in proportion, second only
to Senator Sprouts home county.
He is essentially Lebanon man,
though he does not vote here. His
largest industrial interests are cen
tered in Lebanon, and he is per-
sonally known to scores and hun
dreds of voters.
When he gets to this city, as he
frequently does in the course of his
supervision of one of Lebanon's
largest iron industries, he hands out
a CHEEKY Hello, Ed" here, and a
blithesome Morning, John" there,
and everybody feels glad to pass the
tidings around that Senator Sprouts
in town to-day" Surely. Simply
because most everybody is pleased
to know that the big chief of the
iron works is around. He is per-
sonally popular. Everybody knows
that he is a fine fellow. No one can
reasonably doubt that he will make
as great a Governor as he is a good
businessman, because he will take
to the Governors Office the same
business capacity and good judgment
that has made him a success as a
businessman.

TIME TO SPEAK OUT

[From the New York Tribunel
1t is now the duty of the Republi-
can party to speak openly and with
out restraint. 1t will say what it
stands for, and why, and wherein it's
principles differ from those of the
Democratic party, even on the issues
of war.
The Republican party stands for
Preparedness forever.
Unconditional surrender.
A peace dictated by the Allies.
Reparation by Germans.
Moral punishment for the GRIM
inal nation.
Economic barriers against what
is made in Germany.
A revision of the fourteen con-
ditions to include these demands.
for all of these things without
reservations or secret hesitations.
Does the Democratic party?
Does the President?
The voter shall answer. That is
his duty. And we abide the result.

operation in every enterprise of this
sort. The taxpayers of Harrisburg
are also the taxpayers of Dauphin
county. and it has been the wonder OF
many thoughtful people why there
should be so constantly a differentia-
tion between the city and county. The
time must come when combination
city and county building will be
erected, and inasmuch as the taxpay-
ers of Harrisburg are SO largely in
.terested it is a favorable indication OF
a better understanding that the two
official bodies are now comforting on
a matter which concerns both.

the company at the present time to

orders on the books amount to $780,

1.-THE peoples of the Allied countries
with whom we are associated against
Germany" says President Wilson, are
quite familiar with the significance of
elections" So they are, Mr.. Presi-
dent; and they are net disturbed one
iota regarding the results of the No
vember elections here. They know
that the men who are fighting the
good fight for freedom and justice
and decency are plain Americans who
are not bothering about political af-
filiations. They also understand that
the people back home are giving them
full support without regard to parti-
san consideration. 1t remained for
President Wilson and the ambitious
men who are seeking to avail them
selves of war conditions to promote
their political scheming to raise that
issue without justification of any sort.

OF course. the President would like
to haYe entire control of the Govern
ment in all its activities. That has
been his unfortunate attitude from the
beginning and explains whatever of
friction may have occurred at Wash
ington. He is the chosen servant of
the people and not their autocratic
ruler. This war has developed many
things, but nothing more astounding
than the assumption of President Will
son that he must have a Democratic
Congress to prosecute the war. Thank
Heaven, there were enough patriotic
Republicans in the Senate and House
to make possible the war activities of
the last year. Had the President de-
pended upon his own party we might
still be talking of preparation.
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1918-10-28

"I have no thought of suggesting
that any political party is paramount
in matters of patriotism" observes
the President. Then, why in the name
of all that is reasonable, should he
raise at time like this the question
of politics which he had ostentati-
ously adjourned" American citizens
are perfectly in accord with the Presi-
dent that the German autocracy
should be eliminated with our help,
but they are just as determined that
there shall not be created in this
country a personal or political autoc-
racy on the score of war necessity.

Cabinets have tumbled in Europe
during the last four years, but the
statesmen in France and England
and elsewhere never raise the ques
ton of divided leadership" in the
conduct of the war. The Allies on the
other side of the ocean, who are fight
ing with Americans in the suppress
sion of the Hun. are not giving them
selves any concern about the election
of members of Congress in the United
States They know quite as well as
we on this side that men of all par
ties have been supporting our Gov
ernment patriotically and earnestly
in the prosecution of the war.

TAX RELIEF TO CITY
Adopts Same Equalization
Table as Last Year.

ALBANY, Sept. 24.-Jacob A. Cantor,
president OF the New York city Tax
Commission, labored unsuccessfully to-
day with the State Equalization Board
to have the rate Of equalization for all
the boroughs in New York city fixed at
100 per cent, upon the plea that prop
erty in these boroughs Is assessed at full
value by the city Tax Commission.
The board, however. in adopting the
State equalization table for this year es-
tablished the same rate Of equalization
+ for New York city as last years. per
cept. OF full value in The Bronx and
Brooklyn. "a per cent in Manhattan and
SO per cent. in Queens and Richmond.
President Cantor reviewed ~ long list OF
auction sales of property. which he said
indicated that property in New York
city was assessed at full value.
The board. which comprises Speaker
Sweet OF the Assembly and all the cleo
tive State officers except the Governor,
decided that assessments of real prop
erty In New York city as compared to
full value were of the percentages
| adopted In the table.
