THE CASE IN CHESTER

DOLITICAL debasement is not peculiar
l. to the large cities of America, Corr
ruption and contentment are often the
rule in smaller communities, where petty
bosses, with little to fear from organized
opinion, acquire habits of recklessness
unknown among the more cautious poll
ticians who play for big stakes.
Chester has been ruled for years by a
miniature Tammany. Its bosses have
been more insolent and defiant than a
boss in New York or Philadelphia would
ever dare to be. The squalor of their
political system has had perceptible
effects ever upon the social and economic
life of the city. Municipal policies were
often formulated in the back rooms of
some of the conspicuous saloons. Fatal
race riots have originated in the schemes
of heelers. Yet as an industrial COM
munity of the first class the city has
opportunities and responsibilities of a
sort that never can be properly met
without the aid of an enlightened mu-
nicipal administration.
Governor Sproul when he decided to
take a hand in the coming elections did
Chester a service by making the present
issues clear and by providing the people
with an opportunity for choice between
what is debased and what is forward
looking and constructive in city govern
ment. The Mcclure ring represents a
vanishing system of politics. Sooner or
later it will have to go. The people of
Chester nave an opportunity to be rid of
it. If they fail at the coming elections
it may be said Of them, as it has often
been said of the voters in this city, that
they have been getting only what they
deserve.

JERSEY COUGHS UP

TT WAS clever of the Public Service
! Corporation in New Jersey to inaugu-
rate its zone system of higher trolley
fares on the Sabbath. The day brings
something of tranquility and spiritual
restraint to the people of a state which
still goes regularly to church. The eX-
pertinent, which is going to involve some
thing of a strain on every street-car
rider in New Jersey, was begun in an
atmosphere freer of passion and profan-
ftx than could have been looked for under
normal circumstances. The theory of
zone fares has never been fully tried
nut in practice. Jersey is being sacrificed
to make an economic holiday.
1t remains to be seen whether the sac
rifice is wise or even necessary. While the
P. r. T. is jovially. inviting the world to
ride with it for a nickel, the street rail
way company operating lines a few miles
away insists that it will starve if left
dependent on a five-cent fare.
One trolley corporation is seeking new
patronage. Another is deliberately
turning patronage away. That rule may
be found successful in public service.
Certainly it isn't regarded as sound in
any other business or industry.

WHEN Senator Ware contemptuously
w said that some little fellow had chal-
lenged his right to register in order that
he might get newspaper notoricty he
raised an issue which is likely to plague
him before it is downed.
No maj is so big that he is immune to
challenge if his right to register is sus-
pected. At the polls all men are equals,
if not anywhere else. The vote OF the
citizen who puts out the ashes for the
richest and most powerful man in town
can Offset the vote of his employer. To
talk about a citizen exercising his rights
as "some little fellow" is to assume that
we have a privileged class which may do
as it pleases.
But the little fellows will do their
voting at the primaries tomorrow. There
are more plain people who cannot afford
a big mansion in the suburbs than rich
people who live in town in the winter
and in the country in the summer. And
their right to vote is undisputed, for they
live in the same place the year round.
The senator made as bad a break when
he spoke of the little fellow as "Uncle
Dave" Lane made when he said, "Public
sentiment BAH"

PROGRESS OF HOMEOPATHY

THE meeting of the Homeopathic Med
= ical Society of the state, which begins
In this city tomorrow, will be attended
by physicians who know much more about
medicine than was known by Samuel
Hahnemann, the founder of the school.
1t is doubtful if any of them will go
so far as to say with Hahnemann that
the mere smelling of a dilute solution of
a drug is enough to produce a cure, and
certainly lone of them will assert, as he
did, that all diseases are a modification Of
the disease known as itch. The discovery
that itch was caused by a parasitic insect
made all physicians who had accepted
Hahnemann's theory modify their views.
Yet every convinced homeopathic is per-
suaded that the theory of the founder
of the school is sustained by the discovery
that many diseases can be cured by anti
toxins, or that the disease can be cured
by that which the disease generates in
the system.
Whether they are right or wrong need
not trouble the layman. He is more in
terested in results than in processes or
than in the theories on which the
processes are based. And. after all,
homeopathic and allopathist alike agree
hat mother nature is the greatest cura-
tive agent known and that all a physician
can do is to assist her as best he may.
Evening public ledger. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1914-1942, 1919-09-15

words through the campaign have re-
vealed an ~incisive clarity and explicitness
Of purpose. He is ~unafraid Of names
which Judge Patterson only utters with
obvious caution. Mr.. Moore maintains
that he will end Ware maladministration.
He is equally unequivocal in this dec
laration: Senator Penrose has meyer
directly or indirectly asked me to do or
to promise anything for himself or his
faction. | am absolutely unpledged to
any political leader or boss"
In other words, he is a candidate with
a conscience. Philadelphia has had no
opportunity to elect a man of this type
to the mayoralty since the day of Rudolph
Blankenburg. 1t vas the councilmanic
handicap which prevented the full re-
dcmption of the city at that time.
1t is therefore incumbent on voters
with a conscience to support tomorrow
those candidates who can materially aid
Mr.. Moore in governing Philadelphia
under the new charter.
There is indeed no secondary feature
at these primaries. The outcome in all
its features is of major Importance to
lllt ldlt VI IllS COlIlllulllys
1t is needless to recall much of what
Judge Patterson has said in defense Of
his morally weak case. The significance
lies in the ominous omissions. His nebu-
lous plans for developing the city in
volved, however, advocacy of the COM
pletion of the Frankfort elevated.
Naturally. It's a reasonably safe pro-
gram to champion a certainty. The Pat
terson style of candidate has not the
slightest hesitancy in standing for 1865
sunshiny days a year, if possible, nor the
remotest reluctance to promising for his
constituents the unvexed flow of the
Delaware to the sea. Campaign bunk
is customarily as safe as it is unillu-
minating.
What Mr.. Moore says is not bunk, be-
cause facts known to every one demon
Ctrate that he has a genuine fight or
his hands. Mr.. Ware is his un~disguised
political enemy. Mr.. Moore returns
blow for blow. The battlelines are so
wildly drawn that Mr.. Moore simply
could not employ hazy verbiage in the
fray even if he were at other times
inclined to its use.
Moore is Wares open foe.
Ware has a stranglehold on the city
and its populace.
Wares power will be shorn from him
if Moore wins the Republican nomination
tomorrow.
Could any situation be palmer?
Philadelphians can drop the shackles
tomorrow or tighten them again. It's up
to the men that go to the polls.

Parting after a Quarrel

YOU looked at me with eyes grown bright
L with pain,
Like some trapt things. And then you
moved your head
Slowly from side to side as though the
strain
Ached in your throat with anger and
with dread.
Soon you had turned and left me and I
stood
With a queer sense of deafness over
me;
And only wondered duly that you could
Fasten your trench coat up so carefully
Till you were gone. Then all the air was
thick
With my last words that seemed to leap
and culver.
And in my heart I heard the little click
Of a door that ~closes-quietly, forever.

PASCO

A LII sorts of places as we'll as all sorts
a of people are required to make a
world. Yet it is a common habit to exag-
gerate superficial differences. People and
places that seem as widely separated as
the poles may be amazingly alike at
bottom.
Pasco, in the state of Washington,
which achieved an hour of fame when
Mr.. Wilson's train stopped there for a few
minutes the other day, was never heard of
before and it probably will never be heard
Of again. The President conversed with
a handful of discouraged citizens as he
might have conyersed with the inhabit-
ants Of a desert isle. The soil was I'M
inviting and unproductive, they said.
EWe have to have lots of grit to live
B%cre," mourned a spokesman for the 1000
souls Of Pasco. They had no band, They
heed to have one, but il slowly disin-
fegrated When a town in America

Evening public ledger. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1914-1942, 1919-09-15

matter with II. But Pssco was resigned,
without hope or aspiration. 1t had run
out of emotion. 1t had folded its hands
and given up and sat down to watch the
trains pass through.
The folk in Pasco seem never to have
thought of moving along to another and
better place. The spirit of exploration
was not theirs. But before we begin
to make jokes about Pasco it might be
well to look toward Washington and count
tAe number of senators who are content
to sit with folded hands in the comfort
able shadow of great presidents and
watch the world go by without any desire
to keep up with it in the quest for greater
comfort and greater happiness.
