T he S outhern Pacific is building a 12 million
dollar bridge across San F rancisco bay. It will
cut train tim e 20 m inutes. E ach year at this
ra te it will save 500.000 visitors to Frisco 10
million m inutes. Surely tim e is m oney in this
regard.
Harrisburg Is practically free from money snohbery.
Other places have their w ealthy 400'». their moneyed a ris
tocracy the social elite based on money, houses and furni-
hut not so here. We have neither the very w ealthy nor
the very poor. There Is a common level that forgets all
about the dollar sign, the floor rugs nnd the fine raiment.
Groups are formed for business reasons, for social affairs
or for religious affiliation, but the possession of wealth
Is not given a thought ln them. It Is a fine spirit of de-
mocracy and one that should be encouraged.— Harrisburg
