''The Admiral Goes Ashore"

: 1t Is one of the traditions of. the
navy that when a beloved admiral
hauls down his flag and goes, ashore
in response to the call to other or
higher duties the officers of his fleet
or squadron personally man the
barge, bend to the sweeps and row
him from his flagship to the landing
place. After the death Of the late
Rear Admiral Coghlan the following
lines, which perhaps are no less APP
propriate to the passing of Rear Adj
miral French f. Chadwick, were
found pinned to the bulletin board
of the Army and Navy Club:
The barge is at the gangway,
An officer mans each oar,
For the voyage of life is ended
The Admiral goes ashore.
Ashore to the rest of the warrior,
Ashore from life's story sea,
Where the Captain of all the Navies
Will welcome him on the quay.
And we who knew and loved him
Will miss the firm clasp of his
+ hand, .s-,
The happy. friendly greeting,
The ringing tone of command.
Man the side In silence
While the parting cannons roar;
A gallant gentleman leaves US
The Admiral goes ashore.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
TRIBUTE TO MCPHERSON
To the Editor of 'The Telegraph:

To the Editor of The Telegraph:
A friend sends me a recent copy
of the Telegraph. containing an
obituary of Judge John B. McPher-
son. of the U. S. Circuit Court.
Allow me to present a tribute of
sincere regret at the demise of my
dear old friend Jack. We were
chums at the old Harrisburg Acad-
emy In the late SOS of the last CEN
tury. when Prof Kemble was the
principal and DIR. Deemy his assist
ant. -
There were fifty or sixty students
in the school then. OF course the
majority have gone over the Great
Divide. l have lost track of the sur
vivors, as l have not lived in Harris
burg for fifty years. recall Clay
McCauley, of whom 1 read about
two years ago as a missionary In
Japan. Then there were two of the
Gross boys, one of whom became
Mayor of Harrisburg. The Dewitt
brothers, sons of Parson Dewitt, of
the Presbyterian Church, were
bright boys, and one followed the
footsteps of his father into the min
istry; Mort Felix, whose father was
in the soda water business; the AL
rickS boys, Levi and Hamilton; Cal
Rahm, whom l met thirty years
ago as a civil engineer in the build
ing of the Brooklyn elevated rail-
road. Vance Mccormick, now of ma
tional fame, had not yet appeared
upon the scene at the Academy. The
husky farmer chap, Fox. from Dau-
phin, saved Jack from drowning
near the big rock opposite South
street, while Cal Rahm and l looked
Il oil from tho noViIa Hole
under the bank.
Jack Mcpherson and / were in a
little Latin class by ourselves when
we were twelve years old. When
the Rev. DIR. Dewitt visited the
school Prof. Kemble would trot us
out to parse and conjugate, much to
our juvenile embarrassment. Our
roads in life separated early-he to
Princeton and into the printing
office, the refuge in those days of
boys not entering the learned pro-
fessio1s.
i 1 did not see Jack for twenty
wears. but my loss was compensated
for in the summer of 1917. when l
received a delightful letter from
him from Bar Harbor, Me-, reviv-
ing memories of the happy days at
the old Academy, when we pllfereo
I potatoes from his grandfather's cell
lar at the corner of Front and Chest
nut streets, and roasted and ate
them on the banks of the picturesque
Susquehanna.
Judge Mcpherson came of sturdy
old Scotch stock. just. honest ana OF
undoubted integrity. He was an
ornament to the bench, and ms
place may not be easily filed me
United States courts are the iast
refuge for the American in search
of even handed justice. We need
big men like Mcpherson to eXpound
the law in these days of repelhon
against authority and order.
1 trust that you may nna Too.n
for NV little reminiscent tribute to
my old friend Jack, whom l loved
for his noble traits and manly char-
acteristics.

The German People Wilied 1t
From the New York Tribunel

[From the New York Tribune]
Herr Rudolph Kirchner is entitled
to honorable mention as German
journalist who intrepidly explores a
new and un-Prussian field of
thought. Writing in the Frankfurter
Zeitung Kirchner says:
Our government has cheated us
but the people have cheated them
selves as well. Who insisted with so
much vehemence on the submarine
war in it's most ruthless form? Was
it only Tripitz and his henchmen?
Was it not the German people them
selves that made the task of those
sinister chauvinists so supremely
easy? Is it conceivable that every
precept of reason, moderation and
humanity could have been trampled
upon so shamelessly and so often had
the masses of the German people
seriously set themselves against the
folly of their rulers? Who is re-
sponsible for Belgium? Who for the
anneXations in the East? For the
brutal peace of Brest-Litovsk? The
people let the rulers have their own
way about 1T. We measured the in
ternational situation by the accuracy
of a German long-range gun. =
We Germans, at least those of Gus
who were not imperialists, thought
of this war as one of self-defense
But how could we reconcile this idea
with our invasion of Belgium, which
proved that our rulers considered
breaking the law of nations mere
matter of routine? The whole Ger
man people applauded the act and
many others of the same brand"
This Is not repentance-far from
it. But 1t is admission. Its tone con-
trasts favorably with that of the ap-
peal issued, soon after the signing
of the armistice, by group of Ger
man writers headed by Gerhart
Hauptmann. This appeal invoked
"brotherly love as the guiding prin-
cipie of humanity" and urged the AL
lied nations to forget the past and
work for the future. There is no
hatred in our hearts," ,Hauptmann
and his friends asserted apparently
quite willing to forgive the Belgians,
for instance.
After all, it may be that Kirchner
is not more honest than the rest of
his colleagues-only little more
diplomatic. He is, on the verge of
the stupendous discovery that hon
esty pays-surely, a novel concep-
tion for the Prussian mind.

himself q good roads enthusiast and
able businessman, will learn a lot
from tho Chief Executive during the
framing of the program and will

The people want good roads. The

the State needs them badly. These
alone would be ample reasons for

HOME GARDENS

HIRLEY B. WATTS, in charge Of
tho Chamber of Commerce gar
~ den work. advises those who de-
siro plots to make application early
as there is likelihood of there being
more applicants than garden plots
Last year we had War Gardens. this
year Victory Gardens. Although the
names differ tho gardens are the
same and those who learned how to
grow vegetables during the war
period will not want to give UP their
gardens.
There Is Just as much Importance
attached TO food production as there
was last year. We are exporting
provisions by the million tons and
we must grow more II we do not
expect to go abroad.

"HOME RULE"

"HE municipal home rule" res
olution which Senator Beidle-
man fathered last session will
come up again in the Legislature this
year, according to the forecasts of
those in touch with affairs. 1t Is to
be hoped that 1t will be adopted.
Its opponents contend that such
an amendment to the constitution
would wreck all uniformity of city
regulation and create a condition of
assessment. taxation and accounting
chaotic in the extreme. upsetting the
standards of method that State au-
thoritles have been striving to create.
That, to be sure, would be q posi-
bility under law permitting each city
to adopt it's own form of govern
ment. but 1t is not likely that the
fear would be realized.
At all events. people are better
content with q government of their
own creation than they are with reg
ulation handed down to them by an
authority that presumes Itself to be
wiser than they are themselves. One
of the reasons for dissatisfa ction
with our city laws is that they can
not be changed to meet purely local
or newly arising conditions without
appeal to the Legislature. Willy nilly
Harrisburg for example must be gov
erned by the law laid down for Erie,
although one is an interior railroad
and manufacturing town whereas
the other has its maritime problems
of fisheries and ports.
We ought to be given this oppor-
tunity for self-government in order
to frame laws to meet our local
needs. Surely even those job-holders
of the Third Glass City League who
can see no flaws in the flimsy. moth
eaten old Clark act must admit we
are entitled to that American right.
