THE RED MEN

T HE Red Men of Pennsylvania
are with us again-thanks, il
is to be imagined, to the in
fluence and persuasive oratory OF
Prothonotary Charles f. Pass, who
is as popular in the order abroad as
he is with the folks here at home.
The Red Men are a purely Amer
ican patriotic society, and just at
this time Americans give thanks be-
yond measure to those who consti-
tute the membership of lodges and
associations which stand for the
United States, first, last and all the
time, and which pledge themselves
to oppose to the death any encroach-
ment on our independence or inter-
ference with our institutions. They
are mighty power for good in the
land. Bolshevism is impossible
where fidelity to Constitution and
country is the sworn pledge of mil
lions.
Harrisburg welcomes the Red
Men. 1t hopes they will like the
new hotel that is their headauar-
ters. and it hopes, also, they will
think we'll enough of the city to
return at no far distant date.

To my memory came the remarL

OF my proposal to make holiday in

You will find there the nearest n.

of daylight, for the reason that
thereby he is enabled to have a
home garden and work 1t after
hours. and that he has time for rec
reation with his family by daylight
when he does not wish to work his
garden. He accuses the farmer of
trying to grab the additional hour
OF daylight in order to deprive him
of the opportunity of raising his
own garden truck, but that is hardly
fair. More likely the farmers have
been unduly aroused by the clever
agents of certain big corporations
whose receipts are hard hit by the
hour Of daylight in the late evening.
At all events, both sides could be
satisfied by an arrangement of city
time and country time, which would
give both what they want and in
jure nobody. for all the readjustment
that would be necessary to meet the
new condition would be changing the
schedules of a few railroad trains
used by farmers for transport of
milk and produce.

fitting up and down the State. have
been SO accustomed to directing the
enactment of laws in their own in
terests and for their own convent
ence that they should naturally as
sumo that what is for their interest
must be for the interest of all the
people.
Harrisburg is the natural and
proper place foE-the sitting OF the
high courts and it is the duty OF the
Legislature to give the same consid-
Grafton to the pending measures FOR
the concentration of the two courts
here as has been given the other
bills providing for the concentration
of other activities of the Common
wealth on Capitol Hill. AS individ-
ual State employees schemed to re-
move certain departments of the
State government to Philadelphia,
Pittsburgh and elsewhere until Gov
ernor Sproul determined to restore
efficiency and economy in the leg1s-
lative and executive branches by re-
turning the wandering public SER
wants to their proper home, so pro-
testing lawyers here and there are
striving to create the impression that
the interests of litigants would be
best promoted by continuing the
present undignified and unnecessary
touring of the State by the higher
judicial tribunals.
Mr.. Beitler's most touching appeal
is to the effect that the judges
should have the opportunity of meet
| ing members of the bar from differ
ent sections of the State" because, as
he suggests, such contact probably
tends to make them broader men
than they would be il residing per-
manently at Harrisburg" This mai
crushing argument against the pro-
posed change is in harmony with
the recent Pittsburgh protest that
the rights of life and property would
he endangered by the permanent
sittings of the two courts in this CITY,
There may be some real objections
TO the Hess bills, but up to the pres
ent time the protests have been OF
such a puerile character as to make
the advantages in favor OF the
change stand out strongly in con-
trast. Mr.. Hess should insist upon
his bills being promptly reported
from the committee in which they
are now reposing and let the people
of the State say through their proper
representatives on Capitol Hill
whether their interests or the con-
venience and pleasure of a few pro-
vincial lawyers should have first con-
sideration.

JUDGES, MEET LAWYERS

the Recommendation of the
ACTIVITIES of the Supreme and su-
perior Courts in Harrisburg. He
Joins with certain objectors of Pitts-
purgh in a vigorous protest agains+
the Hess bills and declares that If
enacted they would create a "sne.
clal class of appeal lawyers" This
Is awful, If true, and we can almost
see the tears streaming down +bo
faces of those disinterested and pa-
triotic lawyers of Philadelphia and
Pittsburgh who believe that tho in
terests of litigants will he best nre-
served by continuing the perinatetic
activities of the higher courts in
Philadelphia and Pittsburgh. OF
course, it can be assumed that $50
special class of appeal lawyers,
might be created in either of those
two cities. Nor should those who
favor the concentration of the i'm
portant legal activities of the Com
monwealth at the State Capitol as
sumo to deprive the Philadelphia
and Pittsburgh lawyers of the on
portunity to transact their own busi-
ness in one city or the other at the
expense of the litigants whose inter-
ests they so zealously pretend to
safeguard in their opposition to the
Hess bills.

LET'S HELP bob" LYON

T ETS help Bob" Lyon put the
Boy Scout campaign over in
Harrisburg this week. All the
Scouts ask is 1000 associate men,
bers at a dollar each, and the money
will go to help bring Scouting to the
boys who most need it.
A dollar is not much to invest in
the boyhood of the country, and
there are few fathers of boys in
Harrisburg who cannot afford that
small sum.
The Boy Scout is a real boy, but
not a bad boy. The Boy Scouts
take so-called bad" boys and make
good boys of them. No Boy Scout
ever was convicted of crime. They
are too busy with the activities of
scouting to get into serious trouble.
Bob" Lyon himself-with his CO.
workers-is taking a week out of
his own business to head the cam
paign here. He ought to have our
cooperation. Let's give it to him.
The price of cooperation is one
dollar.
