    EEE EIS,
A Question Answered.
The Wage-Earners' Journal of Phil-
ipsburg last week contained the follow-
ing: “Why is the Wage-Earaers’
Journal so emphatic in the support of
Ex-Gov. Pattison ?”’ asks a cocrespon-
dent. Well, not because he is a Demo-
erat, we answer in the first place, be-
cause if that was our only reason, we
would be whooping her up for Kribbs,
for Holt, for McCormick, for Ishler and
others who are Democrats. We have a
better reason. Advocating the cause of
organized labor, believing that the
working people can only obtain their
rights by and through legislation, we
further believe that legislation can only
be had by electing honest men to office,
men who have proven themselves real
friends to the interests of the people of
the State. Rob’t E. Pattison is an honest
man. He is not only an honest man,
but he has made a record which has
clearly demonstrated that he is a fearless
man when it comes to the discharge of
what he conceives to be his duty—dis
charging his every duty without fear,
favor or affection. He is no demagogue.
What he thinks, he says. What he be-
lieves right, he does, When he refused
to send Pinkerton thugs to Johnstown,
he acted conscientiously. When a
demagogic legislature appropriated
money it knew was not in the Treasury,
he vetoed the measures calling forexpen-
diture beyond the ability of the State
to pay. That was a brave act, When
he came into office and found not one
miner on the board appointed to manage
the mine hospitals, he at once appoint-
ed two miners on the board, and the
hospitals became popular with the class
for which they were erected. That was a
just act. What Gov. Pattison was from
1883 to 1887 we believe he will be from
1891 to 1895. If we did not so believe,
we would not advocate his election.
‘We believe he will be fair to every interest
in the State—to the farmers as well as to
the miners ; to corporations as to indivi-
duals. No interest, no class, will suffer
by any act of his, and no interest nor
class will reap benefits by any act of his
at the expense of any other interest or
class. e is just the kind of a man the
PEOPLE need in the Executive of this
Commonwealth, and it will be the PEO-
PLE who would suffer if he be defeat-
ed. These are our honest views in re-
gard to Mr. Pattison. The reader can
take them for what they are worth. We
are of the opinion that we would not be
dealing fairly with the wage-earners
who have so generously supported us
during the four years’ past did we with-
hold these views at this time when unor-
ganized and organized labor, especially
the mining craft, have a grand Shp
tunity to take a step the results of which
will prove of incalculable good to every
workingman in the State.

Episcopal Clergyman on Delamater.
Rev. Dr. Philips Brooks is one of the
best known ministers of the Episcopal
church in America. For a long time he
resided in Philadelphia, but for several
years past he has been pastor of Trinity
church, Boston. He was recently 1n-
vited by Herbert Welsh, secretary of
the Lincoln republican committee of
Philadelphia, to speak ata meeting in
that city and replied as follows :
TriNITY PARISH, BosTON, September
25, 1890. Dear MR. WELSH.—As a
citizen and a republican Iam thank-
ful to know that the republican citizons
of Pennsylvania propose to protest
against Quay. If ever such protest was
needed it seems as if it were needed now.
I cannot come to the meeting, and in-
deed I think that the voices of Penn-
sylvanians should mostly be heard on
that occasion, but Ibid yon godspeed
and shall rejoice in your success. Yours
most sincerely, PuiLLIps BROOKS.
Address to the Democratic Voters of
Centre County.
Editor Democratic Warcumax :—Allow me,
through the columns of your paper, to give the
Democrats of this county some poirters as to
the coming election: In the first place 1
would ask the question, why should a Demo-
crat vote for any of the Republican county can-
didates? Is it because a Republican adminis-
tration of three years in the county was man
aged so economically? No! We all know what
an extravagant administration a Republican
board of commissioners gave us for the last
three years, although they have been lauded
almost to the skies asangels by that truthful (2)
sheet, the Gazette. But there is no use going
into details about the commissioners, since
their record for incompetency is being so
thoroughly ventilated all over the county. But
before their election you were told that they
were the best men in the county, Now what
can you, as taxpayers, expect from the next
best men in the county from the Reputlican
ranks? This, I think, should settle the ques-
tion as to how you, as Democrats, shonld vote
in regard to commissioners.
But, fellow Democrats, I will come a little
nearer home, and ask you why you should vote
for the present Republican candidate for Re-
corder, who, without the aid of Democrats
don’t stand a ghost of a show for election; but
yet he travels over the county and asks Demo-
crats to vote for him to defeat a crippled man
who is his peer in every respect, as far as com
petency and qualification are concerned. Bat
this is not all, fellow Democrats. This wolf
in sheep’s clothing is to-day aiding! with’ the
money he has earned as Recorder, (after being
elected by Demccrats) the Republican man-
agers in trying to defeat the whole Democratic
ticket. Yet this man has the audacity to ask
true Democrats to vote for him while at the
same time he is helping financially to swell the
Republican corruption fund in the county to
buy votes and debauch the election. Do you
think a man of this kind is worthy of your
support?
Nor is this all, fellow Democrats. This same
man who has more than once given vent to the
expression that the Domocratic party is com-
posed of a low class of people, while the Re-
publican party is composed of the intelligent
class, comes to you with his great big Sunday
face and asks you, whom he looks down upon
as low and unintelligent, to cast your ballots
for him as against a man who he tells you is
a stuck-up fellow. And righ there I would ask
whether Mr. Morrison is so stuck-up because
of the two immense (?) properties he owns as
compared| with Harter's new mansion, the
North Carolina copper mining stock, and the
profession out of which with $2.50 invested for
material and one day’s work (?) he makes from
$30 to $35. In short, any man who proposes
to be a moralist, and gives certain parties
money to pay Democrats,taxes for votes should
by all {means stay in his own intelligent (?)
camp where vote buying and election debauch-
ing is looked upon as one of the fine arts in
politics. And more than this, fellow Demo
crats, in his desperation to get Democratic
votes, and to ensnare the unwary, he has act-
ually represented himself as being a Demo-
erat. What do you Democrats think of such
treachery? Can you consistently vote for a
man who is doing all in his ;power financially
and otherwise to overthrow the principles
which you sincerely believe are to the interest
of the poor and common class of people?
Fellow Democrats, I ask you as one who
holds principle and clean policies above in-
dividuals, to stand by your county ticket with-
out a scratch, and don’t be caught in this
man’s “spider and fly” meshes. It is our local
organization whieh, if properly organized, will
help to swell the majority of that man with
spotless character, Robert E. Pattison, and
with him in the gubernatorial chair we wauvt
to elect every man oh the Demoecratc ticket
in the county.
From one who out of principle and not mere-
y for the name is
A DEMOCRAT,
The Horn Blowing Outrage.
Mr. Epiror :—Allow me to allude to and de-
nounce the horn-blowing outrage that was pre-
petrated in this place on the evening of the
Pattison meeting. Gov. Pattison was enthu-
siastically received at the depot by a multitude
of anxious voters and at once conducted to
Garman’s Opera House where hein a brief and
statesmanlike manner showed that the pre-
sent State administration cost five hundred
and ninety-two thousand dollars more than his
administration did, throwing in his extra ses-
sion, and leaving out the Johnstown fleod ex-
penditures of Beaver’s term. It wasnupon his
allusion to the Johnstown expenditures that
the insult of hissing him came from parties in
the back seats who probably belonged to the
Bellefonte “sufferers” who didn’t want any al-
lusion made to the flood expenditures because
it was a delicate subject to them.
Notwithstanding the wet weather, the opera
house was insufficient to accommodate the ea-
gerpopulace and an annex meeting wastheld in
the Court House. There was perfect order and
quiet during the entire continuance of the
meetings indoors; buton the out side of the
buildings and in the adjacent street where the
opponents of the honest Governor had arrang-
ed, though their best alies, the boys, to blow
horns and hoot and yell like a set of Arabs,
thereby disturbing those assembled and the
citizens generally in the vicinity. The noise
was so turbulent that the bands could not be
heard and had to cease playing. They also
followed Governor Pattison and party on the
streets, and insulted them in like manner.
When the police was asked to preserve order
they refused to do so.
On the night of the Delamater meeting, it
had been previously arranged by the supporters
of the Standard Oil candidate and Quay’s pet
to stop any horn blowing or noise by the Dem-
ocrats at their meeting, and notice was accord.
ingly served on the Democratic boys in all of
the public schools that they should not blow
horns on that occasion, or they would be ar-
rested by the police, as an extra force had been
detailed for that purpose. The boys, true to
Democratic principles, obeyed the order.
This kind of rule has been and continues to
be the leading characteristic of the Republi-
can ring managers of this county, whose dis-
orderly conduct is offensive to the decent and
fair men of their own party. One of them is
charged with having paid the boys for disturb-
ing the Pattison meeting. The speakers at
the Delamater meeting talked principally
about the tariff and abused the Democrats.
The war was brought up again, and one of the
speakers, Quay’s candidate for Secretary of
Internal Affairs, told what a great hero he had
been, (although he was in the army but a few
months at the end of the war) waved the
bloody shirt, and abused the Democrats. In-
telligent Republicans who came to the meet-
ing to hear State issues discussed went away
disgusted.
But let me remark in conclusion that if the
meetings of one party can be disturbed by
horn-blowing and other outrageous noises,
while the meetings of the other party are giv-
en the protection of the pol ice, then good-bye
to the right of free speech and fair discussion
in this country. : ® k ®
