THE TWICE-A-WEEK
Protection and Prosperity.
President Wilson’s frank appea’ to
bis Democratic foOowers to see to it
that the United States Senate is kept
Democratic in politics, so that ruinous
of the program maj be maintained,
has let in the light on the pretenses
of jmalled Damocratic leaders in this
State, who are seeking the defeat of
Senstor Penrose.
The campaign against Mr. Penrose
has been cordaeted on the lowest
groiind of personal blackguardism. Is
sues of the greatest importance to
the country and iii particularly to the
v/elfare of Piiinsylvar.ia, have been
ligorousiy avoided by Mr. Palmer and
his followers, who havs contented
th.;ir.selves wsta 'ppeali, to prejudice
ar.d personal spleen in tiie hopa of
tiin"!ng aboat the defeat of th£ Rt-
pubican candidates. That the hope is
a vain one is obvious, arid that Mr,
Palmer feimseff believes that he is al
ready beaten beyoiid hope, is to be in
ferred from '.be irritation that he dis
plays as his personal assaults fail to
effect.
-■is a matter of fact Mr. Palnier’s
personal abuse of the Republican can
didate does not concern the voters of
the State, y.i'j'eovei, it is as clear
as daylight '.hat in substituting per
sonalities for argument he is 'nierely
f.triving to avoid the real issue and
to draw a red herring across the path
of his own copperhead political coi.rse.
Xow chat Jlr. Palmer has been fove-
ea to notice the fact that thousan;k of
men in Pennsylvania are out of '.vork,
as a result of the Democratic tariff
bill, he still thinks he can foot the
people of the State by making the
silly charge that manufacturers are
shutting down their mills to help
elect Mr. Penrose. No wo-'kingTian
in Pennsylvania is going to be misled
by such moonshipe as that. Pennsyl
vania workmen know that under Re
publican protective tariff laws ‘hey
have had abundant work and that
Democratic ruinous tariff measures in
variably bring idleness with them, for
foreign-made goods are brought in to
take the place of those, that ui.der
protection are made ia Pennsylvania.
The rs?al question as issue now has
nothing to Jo with pei sont-.litics. It
shall the voters of Pennsylvdjija
send a Uemocrat to the .Senate 1,o help
continue Democratic policties as Sir.
Wilson desires, or shall they retain
Mr, Penrose in the Senate to battle
for Republican policies, aboe all for
Protection, which is neces.sajy icj re
store prosperity to Peinsy!vai.i in
(i-jstries and to Pf-nnsylvania v>'orkng-
men.
Every sign points unniistakeably to
the re-eiection of lir. Penro.ie. The
times are too grave to permit personai
ahu^:e to be effective. Pennsylvania
will speak in a great voice for the
restoration of proteetioi! and prosper
ity.
-O-
Philadelphia*s Resposiso.
The most significant point jbout
the registraiion in this city is the
fact that moro than two-thirds of all
who registered have enrolled them
selves as Republicans. This is Phil
adelphia’s lir.st response to the Demo
cratic tariff bill. The shringake of
the Washinj^Ejn or Progressive vote
is somethi!!g vvt- have got used to from
the returns wherever a vote or regis
tration has been taken in evory Slate
where the party two yeans aro had
any standing at alS.
The Democratic registration in this
city, though larger than that of the
Washington party, is only a iiule
more than one-eighth the Republican
enrollment. No doubt the Republicans
will add to their em-olled vote from
those who choose to maintain the se
crecy of their ballot and appear as
Ron-partisan, but the solid aiTay of
183,000 voters or more than two-thirds
of the total, who announce themselve.'i
unequivocally as Republicans is a
demonstration that the Philadelphia
vote in the coming election will be
overwhelmingly and invincibly Repub
lican.
And there is every reason it shjisld.
. No city has been hit harder by the
tariff failure of the present adminis
tration and Congress than Philadelph
ia. Us particular industries were se
lected for slaughter more tt«m others.
Already the pjirtial or entire closing
of numy qjillg have filled the stteets
of KeaRhsgton (ind «ls««3>ere idth b»-
c3»ploy«d men nsd womee for whaai
an appeal for help is made. The an
swer should be an overwhelming vote
for the Republican ticket;^—^Philadelph

Charlotte Coupe On Long Hike Picke4
Up. . ■
Romance has been destroyed in the
mind of Miss Tatisee Pendlleton aged
K, of Charlotte who afcer walking
93 mUes separating Greensboro from
Charlotte was glad when Captain Mc-
Cuiston, of the local police force, ac
cost^ her in the railway station last
night and questioned her as to her
destination. The girl, tired of the re
strictions of home and jn company
with a young man, decided to jeek
their fortunes elsewhere and accord-
iiigly started rcith. They left Char
lotte last Wednesday morning.
Since leaviii!? Concord all the girl
had to eat was one dozen biscuit ami
three banan^is. She tells a touciurig
story of the pangs of hunger and how
she and her companion wore forced to
befj from hous-? to house for what
little they did eat. The absence of the
rieht amount of food causcd a h^isun-
doi'standing T etween ihe couple, and
last night when he left her in the de
pot here after f-be had refused to con
tinue to walk c!’ to Lynchburg, Va.,
she was g’ad to see the officer for she
knew then she vould be i>rovided ^,•lth
food and a place to sleep.
She is a daiigrhter of R. R. Pemlle-
ton, of 913 North Brevard street, of
Charlotte, whi was wired last night
that she was in custody here. The
father will be here on the moriiing
train to take the girl home. Harry
Dailey, aged l!l. the girl’s companion
was arrested shortly -after i o'clock
this morning,—Greensboro Nows of

O
Governor Bicase on Maine jEK-ctica.
The Democratic party of this Na
tion needs wise counsellor.^ and cau
tious action. We have recently heard
it said th.it a great victory had been
won in Maine by the Democratic par
ty. That is where some of our great
leaders are being .seriou.sly deceived.
Maine le-elected every one of ’ler
Congressmen, three-fourths of them
being Republicans. She had elected
n Republican Assembly, The only
victory for the Democrats was a Dem
ocratic (Jovernor, and that was no
victory for IV-mccraey—it was a vic
tory for whiskey which most assui'cd-
ly the present National Administra-
ticn would not call a victory for it
self. .As a matter of fact the Maine
election w'as thus:
“Mr. Curtis was mayor of the city
of Portland, and a Democr.ii. He fav
ored local option as against prohi
bition. The Republican candidate the
present Governor, was a Prohibition
ist, and had been very strict in the
enforcement of the prohibition law,
and had his ofheials right in the city
of Portland to raid and close up places
vhere whiskey or beer was used—even
the locker clubs—and this had loct
him. many supporters among those
who had had in the administration
pievjous the privilege of having their
beer and wi.ies in their club rooms.
-■Vnd when the election came, men who
had never voted a Dtmocratic ticket
before, voted for Mayor Curtis to 1 e
Governor, not because he was a Dem
ocrat, but as a rebuke to the Governor
for having taker, their beer and whis
key out of their lockers anil refused
ti' give it back to them. In addition
to this personal friendship and city
pride got for Mr. Curtis many votes
in Portland because they wanted to see
their mayor and their personal friend
made Governor, reg-ardSess of wheth
er he might be a Democrat or a Ke-
publican.
“So you will see that the Demjcr.nt-
ic party needs to be warned. I tell
you, gentlemen, that she is today in
danger, and if the November elections
are not carefully watched and guard
ed the next House will be Republican,
and not Democratic.”
O
TarijSf Cause of Business Depression.
Hsrrisburg, Oct. 5.—The Demo
cratic tariff, the scale cf living main
tained by th« American people, the
hostility of the Interstate Comm?rce
Commission to the American railroads
and the mansfaetarinc basiaesc de-
depcndent upon the railr«ds, tojretfa-
r vfith the European war, Alba B.
Johnson, president of the Baldwin Lo
comotive Works, tonight declared are
the causes of the country-wide de
pression, in an address before the
Harrisbury Chamber of Commerce on
“Trade Conditions in the United
States.”
Sir. Johnson declared the change in
the tariff is the biggest reason for the
depression.
“A change of the tariff was demand
ed by the American people,” said he,
“but it was extremely unfortunate 'hat
a party was put into power with such
drastic ideas of tariff. reduction. The
tariff was lowered to an extent deem
ed unwiss by a great majority of thie
leading- btasineg* rosn and manufac-
tuwra of the country, and the result
has been exactly that they feared ii
would be. Traffic business through^
put the United States h.".s fallen off
ten per cent.; manufacturers have fall
en off from- twenty to twenty-five per
cent.; the i.idu.'itries dependent upon
railroad pro.;perity are now doing: be
tween tifiy airJ sixty per cent, of vor-
mal bu.iiness, ar.d there are tens of
thousands of men now in idlcr.ess,
\vho were wot 1 ing before the chunpo
the national administration.”
‘And I wi^Ti to say,” went on Mr,
Johnson, “thai the new tariff was ac
cepted by the business men of this
countrj' in goi>J faith. They were de
termined to f ive it a fair trial and
that trial had had disastrous re-'u!ts
to this nation.”
Speaking of the Interstate Coni-
nierce Commissicn, Mi-. Johnson said:
“This body h,“.s betrayed the sacred
trust placed in its hands, which Wiis
the just control of the railroads. This
hostility to railroads is not confined
to this branch of business, but to ev
ery branch of trade activity.”
ifc. Johnsoi) further declared ihat
the cry of “Get the South American
trade,” i? largely the case of the
.American bu.sines.s man fooling him
self. He declared the South .Amer
ican countries will not trade with
the United States unless this country
car. show them that it wiU be infinite
ly more advantageous to trade here
than with Europe. He said the war
has put a finishing touch to the big
depression and he said he believed it
n’iJI be some time before business will
glow better.
