LANCASTER, Pa, October Senator George W. Norris of Ne- braska is in the thick of the kind of campaign that gave St. Patrick im- mortality in Ireland.

This writer joined the Norris expe- dition at Lancaster during the week Lend for the purpose of observing the Nebraska eyclone in action in Penn's banner agricultural county—*the gar- den spot of the Union.” ~Lancaster’ biggest public hall, Fulton Opers House, was packed from pit to dome in the Westerner's honor.

Attacks G. 0. P. Regulars. Norris is at the top of his form when he pours the shot and shell of his invective at the Republican “regu- lars,” who resent his “intrusion” into a purely domestic affair. “Mr. Mellon. Senator David A. Reed and Mr. Vare tell me,” Norris says, “that I have no right to be here. They tell me this election is Pennsylvania’s business, and not the business of an outsider from Nebraska. Sixty-odd years ago this Union of ours was en- gaged in a fierce struggle for preserva- tion. On this self-same soil in Penn- sylvania there was fought a battle destined to be of decisive effect upon that struggle. “Today the Union is engaged in an- other struggle—a struggle for the preservation of the ballot. And once again a_decisive engagement is about to be fought within the borders of Pennsylvania.

I am here fighting at the side of the decent men of Pennsylvania as my brother was at the side of Pennsyl- vanians when he gave his last breath for the Union at Gettysburg.” Calls It National Issue. Men and women of Lancaster cheer- ed that sentiment, proclaimed with transparent sincerity and conviction, to the echo. Norris utters it in all his Pennsylvania speeches. Every where it stirs the emotions of the people. The Nebraskan is making Pennsylvamans realize that the defeat of Vare’s ambitions to sit in the United States Senate is a_ national and not a State issue. If the people do not, or cannot, rise in sufficient might to defeat Vare on election day, Norris declares the Senate itself will deal with him. “Have no doubts on that score,” the Republican progressive says. “The Senate is already committed about men who purchase their admission from the auction block. Votes were lacking to unseat Truman H. New- berry, but there was not lacking the tamina to place on record the Sen- ate’s determination that a bought seat may be held only so long as the Sen- ate requires to oust its fradulent occu- pant from its illegitimate possession.” Norris devotes a persuasive portion of his speeches to a direct appeal to Republicans reluctant to vote against party candidates. The Nebraskan quotes Washington, Lincoln and Roosevelt persuasively on the evils of misguided partisanship. Norris asks Pennsylvania Republicans not to de- stroy their party, but to purify it. 1f it cannot be purified, he asserts, it de- serves to be destroyed, and if it is not destroyed Norris urges Pennsylvania Republicans to believe with him that they are digging the grave of free institutions everywhere in America. Has Fervor of Bryan. There is the fervor of William Jen- nings Bryan, the “punch” of Theodore Roousevelt, and the logic of Woodrow Wilson in this remarkable crusade of Norrls of Nebrask: If men and ‘women cannot be moved by such ap- peals then there is ground for, fearing that the spoken word in our public life has lost its ancient cunning. One man in a fortnight on the hustings of an immense State like Pennsyl- vania can hardly be expected to un- dermine the traditions of a political lifetime. Yet, judging by the manner in which Norris moves the voters he faces, there seems little doubt that if a dozen Republican progressives like him, of the Borah type. or Democratic progressives of the Reed type were available between now and November 2, the amazing spectacle of a Demo- cratic Senator from Pennsylvania might be wrought. Norris has looked Pennsylvanians in the eye for eight days and nights. He has felt, he thinks, their heart throbs in the direction of unbossed politics; he is confident they are ripe for regeneration. His only regret is that there may not be time or men enough to accomplish it before “the supreme stigma of Vareism is placed upon this fair Commonwealth.” The Nebraskan never fails to take a fling at Senator Reed of Pennsyl- vania (King David, he calls him), for trying to “scare” Norris out of the| re campaign by threatening him with the loss of the chairmanship of the Senate judiciary committee. Through Senator Cummins’ death, this comes to Norris by seniority. (Copyright. 1926.) DIES AT THE AGE OF 80. Mrs. Catherine Heil Succumbs After Illness of 2 Year.

Its construction, plans and spaciousness make it ideally adaptable to such uses, it was point out. nother suggestion that has been made is to build upon the nurses’ home addition- al stories, which will house the new cilitie: The home was constructed with the view to such change in its use and the addition of several tloors. Statement by Mr. Blair. Woodbury Blair, president of the Board of Directors, said this morning that in addition to the relief of the present crowded conditions, the in- creased facilities would permit the establishment of a greater number of rooms for the patient of moderate means who does not wish to be ac- cepted as a charity patient, but yeét, who cannot pay high rats Ac modations for such persons, Blair said, is the prime need of the hospital at this time The present New York avenue insti- tution, Mr. Blair explained, is ove crowded, yet no one has been turned away, who presented an emers: case.

We are crowded, but—as a matter of fact, we have never turned away any- body.” As soon as definite plans are formu- lated, a drive for funds to finance the improvement will be considered. Ac- cording to Mr. Blair, the needed funds would total $250,000 or more, although this figure is merely an estimate.

MOBILE, Ala., October 2i.—Gas« masked firemen waged a hard battla early this morning to check a stub- born blaze that raged in a hold of the Mallory steamship Naches, berthed at the company's docks here. Volumes of heavy smoke, created by burning paper pulp and merchan- dise, balked the firemen until gas masks were sent from headquarters, and then watr pumps were brought in throughloading hatchesand the flames were controlled, but not before the tons of water had listed the ship from the dock, and her mooring lir were strained almost to the breal ing point. Spontaneous combustion is blamed for the fire. The Naches arrived Sat- urday night from- New York via Tampa, loaded with 15.000 packa of merchandise antl with a_carload of paper pulp and one of lubricating oil. Tarpaulins protected hatch cov- ers yesterday because of the holiday, and hatches were not opened unti firemen reached the ship.
