Job Dept. 103. WEDNESDAY EVENING, MARCH 4 GOOD WORK OF COUNCIL EMBERS of the new City Coun 1 11 ell and Commissioner Lynch In particular are displaying commendable energy In out lining preliminary plans for the prose cution of the public Improvement work authorized by the voters at the elec tions lost November. The presentation of an ordinance providing for the construction of more than forty storm and sanitary sewers was the most important matter brought to the attention of Council yesterday. Apparently ou all subjects except appointments the Councilmcn may be depended upon to stand to gether.

Politics will figure in munlcl pat government so long as there is a place to be filled that is not subject to a civil service system, and Harrisburg is no exception to this. But it Is gratl lying to note a disposition on the part of all the Councllmen to get together On subjects of far more Importance than who shall or who shall not hold this or that job. Unless all signs fail, there is apparently among the Commissioners a de termination to carry forward public work along the same lines that have won for Harrisburg a high place among the progressive cities of the country The new sewer ordinance is a move in tbit direction. Now, in the early spring, is tho time to prepare for active construction operations next summer, and the Councllmen are go ing about this duty In an admirably energetic and businesslike MEXICAN INTERVENTION AMES CHEELMAN, the veteran journalist whose articles on the Cuban situation during the Weyler administration and just previous to the Spanish American War so well forecasted the future of the United states In respect to Intervention for humanity's sake in Cuba, now foresees ultimate intervention of the united states in Mexico. Mr.

Creel man writes from Mexico City. He is intimately acquainted with Mexican affairs and his opinions must be given tha weight not only of those of a keen and experienced observer of public af fairs, but of a man who has a reputa tion at stake and who risks his life to tn his news dispatches what, he has dared to telegraph from his temporary residence in the Mexican Unlike many others who have at tempted to predict the results of In terventlon, Creelman professes to see I iit.no aimouny in me pacmcatlon of the country under American rule. He says that a large majority of Mexicans. specially those of the South, are tired of the uncertainties of government as they have existed since Diaz was deposed, and would gladly welcome any form of authority that would guarantee their personal safety and eive them opportunity to pursue their ways In peace. There are apparently very good reasons for Crcelman's belief that Americans would not And united resistance if they crossed the border.

Aside from the fact, never sufficiently realized, that the Mexicans aro not yet a na tion, but largely a conglomeration of Indian tribes only superficially united, there is an ineradicable personal an tagonism between the de facto ruler cf Mexico and the de facto rebel of the northern insurgents between uuerta ana viua. This is a point "farther emphasized by another fact that Is hot sufficiently realized, namely, that the real Mexico, teeming rrith many millions of Indians, begins considerably south of the desert re Cion in the north which is now prac tlcally held by the men whose nominal choice, for president Is General yenustlano Carranso. That General Vlctorlano Huerta ould ever make common cause with Vzaoho Villa la, a difficult thing to urine for those who remember what sea Between tnem not quite two There was great excite tn Mexico City on the night of is 4, 1912, when the Alameda and i Francisco street rang with the of "extras" of an attempted inu Ciy.by Panchu Villa against his com chicf( General Huerta, and the letter's order to have Villa sum WEDNESDAY EVENING marlly shot befora tha entire division drawn up to witness the manner In which Insubordination by a prominent chief wai to be punished. And Mexico City was amazed to hear that tha man who had faced death a thou sand times weakened before the firing squad, begged for mercy and waa spared. The distance of the northern centers from the capital and the general political and eoonoralo condition! In those vast desert stretches of the north prevent the central government from dominating tha border States as Porflrlo Dtas did for more than a generation.

If Huerta' can consolidate his power In central and southern Mexico, regardless of what becomes of the north, he will put the real Mexico, tho densely peopled Mexico of the Toltecs, Astecs, Taraacana, Zapotecs and others, In the way of becoming a nation. American intervention in the mountain fastnesses of Puebla, Morelos, Ml choacan. Oaxaca. Hldalro. Guerrero.

But the north only requires Irrigation and immigration to become another I Southwest, and here Americans, it the signB point aright, will find much work to do in the not distant future, and It may bo that a kind of military Intervention will have to blase the way. FREE TRADE ECAUSE the business of the coun try has not gone to eternal smash In the few months since the tariff law went into effect, because manufacturers everywhere are putting up a brave front and striving by every means In their power to stave oft the evil effects of this pernicious legislation, we are told by gleeful press agents of the Wilson administration that the new tariff regulations are all that they were represented to be and that marvelous prosperity for the country Is assured under their operations. Without endeavoring to point out that the full effects of the law will not be felt for some months or a year to come and that we are now doing a fairly good volume of business despite, rather than because of, the Democratic tariff slashing, it may be instructive to pause for a moment and observe how broad minded 'business men of Europe, and of England especially, view free trade and what they think of the results of a protective tariff in America.

The London Times of February IS publishes a full page Statement of the European Unity League. The purpose of this organisation, in the language of its president, Sir Max Waechter, is "to bring about the alliance or fed eration of the States of Europe on an economic basis." Whether or not the organization will ever attain the objects for which it was formed Is a question apart. The advantages of protection over free trade and the erection of a tariff wall about the States of Europe to the exclusion of American products, as set forth in one of the paragraphs of the league's official statement, is the point to be considered in relation to the recent lowering of our own barriers to the trade of Europe. This tenet of the new organization follows: To bind tha nations of Europe firmly together all inter European custom boundaries should be gradually eliminated. All Europe should form one great free trade market protected by a tariff against the nations without.

Free trade within a great State, the possession of a valuable home market, haa ever proved a moat powerful binding medium of nations. At one time the ates of Germany, those composing the United States of America, and the Cantons of Switzerland were Independent States, and State waa divided from State and Canton from Canton by custom boundaries. The federation of Germany, of the United States, and of Switzerland gave to all Americans, all Germans, and all Swiss a large home market protected against foreign nations. The free dom of a large. market greatly increased the prosperity of the citizens dwelling In each of the individual States of the Federation.

The great value of a common market Induced those American States which did at first not Intend to join the union to change their mind. The common home market made the United States, and a common home market should establish for all time the unity of Europe. Tha unity of Europe should be founded on the Arm basis of a great and lasting prosperity. Here we have a picture of President Wilson killing the goose that has laid the golden eggs of American prosperity; an English appreciation of the truth of the contention of the Republican party, that protection spells prosperity and free trade depression and hardship for our business and working people. Imagine the United States on a free trade basis competing with a union of all Europe protected by a tariff wall Buch as that which surrounded our own country until a Democratic Con gress sent it toppling about our ears and left us open to the hungry hordes of cheap foreign competitors.

SITTING ON A HORNET'S NEST D' R. LUTHER H. GULICK In his book, "The Efficient Life," has a chapter on "Stimulants and Other Whips" that ought to be read by every man or woman who may be tempted at one time or another to increase his or her working power under stress by resort to drugs or stimulants. Dr. Gullck is a forceful and enter tainlng writer and he puts old thoughts into new language In a way to Impress themselves vividly upon the imagination.

We have scarcely ever noted a more effective descrlp tion of the effect of a stimulant upon the nervous system than is given hers. Dr. GuucK says mat wnen a man sits down on a hornet's nest he It im mediately led to expend an unusual amount of energy, but tho hornet's nest did not create the energy. It was stirred up in the man's nerves and muscles. The act of sitting down In an unacouttomsd place simply enabled the man to spend more energy In given space of time than he otherwise would have dope.

A stimulant, says Dr. Gullck, is very much like the hornet's nest. What It really does Is to Increase a man's energy spending A drug or stimulant does not create energy in a man any more than whip creates energy In a horse. All It does Is turn on more current and the more the current the more the burning' power on the tissues of the body. Reference made yesterday tn.

this column to blizzards which have swept the city caused some people telephone for Information about floods, especially those which have followed cold snaps. The most recent flood following a cold spell, oddly enough, occurred just ten years ago to day. This recalls that tho flood of a decade ago was known ua the "Ice flood," as the Susquehanna had been frozen from 18 to 24 Inches by a series of cold waves, some of which sent down tho mercury around 3 and 4 degrees. The Ice broke on the 8d and on March 4, 1904, the Susquehanna rose to 23.3 feet, carrying huge cakes over portions of South Harrisburg and turning the islands In front of the city Into Icy fortresses. This was the year when enormous gorges formed at Turkey Hill and other points below Mlddletown and caused grave apprehension as to what might happen here.

There was an other March flood, caused by the melting of heavy snows and the accom panying breaking of the ice, on March 1 3, in 1802. this being the flood during which the eastern section of the Harrlsburg bridge went down. The crest of this flood was on March when It got up to 23.9 feet. The worst flood ever known since they began to keep records In Harrisburg was the famous flood of June. 1889.

On June 2 the water rose to 27.1 feet. Some people said that the "pumpkin" flood of years before had flooded a greater portion of Harrisburg, but there were not so many islands In the stream in those days and the banks had not been filled out. This was an autumn flood, which is a rarity. In 1894. five years after the "June flood." the Susquehanna rose on May 22 to 25.2 feet The "St.

Patrick's Day flood," as that of March 17. 1865, was known, registered 24 feet at the water house. The 8usquehanna has been pretty well behaved since the great "Ice flood," although it has gotten up around 18 feet occasionally. Just what It la arnlnff tn do this year with a fair amount of Ice covering Its surface and a tremendous amount or snow all over its' watershed and tributaries locked in from one to two reel or ice is problematical.

Kalbfus, are not Only showing themselves to be humanitarians by lookinir after tha quail and other game birds, but they are insuring a supply of game next fall.
