What was ac- , complished indicated what could be done along the same lines and plans are | being laid for still greater schemes. Strengthened by its own audacity and encouraged by its sweeping tri- ~umphs, the machine proposes to take everything in sight next time. It it { succeeds at the polls in November it will claim that its policy has been vin- dicated and proceed to entrench itself for the next twenty-five years. This is not only possible, it is an absolute certainty, if the projects now on foot are carried out. The whole state will be helplessly subject to the gigantic combination of selfish interests now at work. Elections will be a mock- ery and tribute to the amount of scores of millions of dollars will be exacted from the people. When the climax is reached it will be the culmination of work that has been going on for ten years past. How They Raise Campaign Funds. The financial bulwark of the Quay machine has been and is the misuse of the state funds, their control of the | treasury and the secret support of cer- | tain interests that keep out of sight. | Barrels of money have been raised | whenever needed and now it is intend- | freight. ed to spend more than ever before in a single state campaign, the deliberate purpose being to debauch the degraded portion of the electorate and control election boards by violence and cor- ruption. If the agents of the machine can give satisfactory assurances, they can get the money—all that is demand- ed. They always do. No one is al- lowed to become the beneficiary of ring favor who does not pay the For several years a prominent citizen of Philadelphia, having large business interests, backed the local A an bosses most liberally. He died sud- Handbook on patents sent | denly and instead of leaving a million | or more as every one supposed, his | estate was surprisingly small. He had been almost bled to death—financially. A successor was found, who put up the money, by the bag full. He was given fleeting public honors, but being thrifty minded he got in on the ground floor with the speculators in public fran- | chises and came out far ahead. Great corporations have been compelled to stand and deliver to these public pi- | rates until some of their master spirits ‘ have at last called a halt. They are today praying for the complete over- throw of the grafters. Millions More in Sight. In Philadelphia it is proposed to sup- plement the immensely profitable schemes of the past few years. The people have been so deeply wronged that it is thought they will weakly submit to any new trespass upon their rights, to any new burdens that may be laid upon them. No other city in the United States is so completely sub- ject to onerous local transit monopoly. It will be remembered that when the street railway franchise bills were pushed at Harrisburg it was loudly pro- claimed that the benevolent purpose of the projectors was to break monop- oly and bring about better conditions. Every statement to the contrary was furiously denied. To the last hour of secret combination negotiations, di- rectors brazenly declared there was “nothing in it.” There has been a vast sum of money divided since and now this city is doomed to monopoly and high fares for fifty years . The com- bine controls traffic on the ground, under the ground and above the ground. Another Gigantic Combine Scheme. Five years ago the gas works were taken by a corporation that had grad- ually worked its way to the front. The service had been demoralized in its di- rect interest. The people had been so grieviously wronged they were ready to surrender on almost any terms. Facing a winter without coal, or at ex- tortionate prices, when they demanded cheaper gas they were pointed to the hard and fast terms of a one-sided bar- gain for twenty-five years more. Ex- perts have shown that the company ‘could make big money at one-half the rate they secured. This contract, if it is not changed, will cost the people of Philadelphia fully thirty millions of dollars more than it should. It com- prises the most gigantic grab in the history of municipalities in this coun- “A comunity of interest’’ prevails between the gas company and the electric light trust, which over-taxes the municipality through its monopoly, more than one hundred thousand dol- lars a year, while the people are like- wise held up through extortionate rates. There has been no competition. . One little company fought hard, but it ‘was swallowed up. ‘Phe Ifght Com- bine, gas and electric, including too, heat and power, have been edging up te the trolley combine and mow sll hands are ready to pool their issues, putting a steel band around this helpless city for generations to come, with a combined capital, money and | water—of at least one hundred mil- fion dollars. This new collosus is to “take over” the city water works, after nearly twenty million dollars have been spent, millions of it squan- dered in filtration schemes that will never protect the public health, as has been already shown. Legislation, local and state, will be required to enable these plans to be carried out. With Quayism triumphant in Novem- ber and February, everything would be in fine shape for another carnival of debauchery and the enslavement of the greatest city of the common- wealth. It remains to be seen what the plain people will do about it, not only the long plundered residents of the city to be affected, but the self-respect- ing citizenship of the state. It is within their power to smash this new combine and all others of the same kind. They can knock out Quayism with one blow and the rising tide of public indignation and patriotism vis- ible in every part of the state indicates that this is what they propose to do on the 4th of November. The Supreme Issues. Guthrie on the Interest of the Fireside in Honest Government. In one ot his speeches in Philadel- phia, Mr. Guthrie, Democratic candi- date for lieutenant governor, said: There is no other part of the com- monwealth where the wrongs of bad government fall so heavily as on the city. There is no possibuity of growth and progress unless the resources of the city are husbanded and used for public advantage. In no place is evil effect felt so quickly if no public funds be diverted to private profit. If the city is to be what it should be all the public resources must be husbanded and used exclusively for public good. Every dollar improperly diverted is money stolen from the man who labors in any station. A public franchise diverted to private profit is as though it were money stolen from the treasury. The vices of ring rule are so many that I have not time to recount them here. The greatest wrongs committed by the machine are those against the sovereignty of the people. our state is but the front yard of your homes, and your homes are your castles, at the firesides of which gather all that are nearest and dearest to you. If you would have the fireside safe you must have the front yard safe, too. The distinguished candidate for gov- ernor on the machine ticket says that the matters raised by us in this cam- paign are of small moment, narrow and mean. Oh, that any one should say that the sanctity of the fireside is a thing small and mean! The powers of the state government are those that come right to the fireside. These are not narrow and small and mean. It is to the state you must look for your privileges, protection and safety. It is the state which gives us police protection. One might suppose from the remarks of the distinguished can- didate that he does not think the duty of the police to be your protection, but the protection of dives and policy shops. ‘We have permitted the building up of a machine system more debasing and destructive to the liberties of our country than the African slavery. The machine sends men to the legislature who represent only fraudulent ballots, not the people. In the whole history of Republican government there: has never been known a case where an of- fice has been filched for an honest pur- pose. The distinguished jurist says the vernment of our commonwealth airly Tepiotenis the virtue and intelli- gence of its people—tnat they who speak of its wrongs are slandering its fair name, Such a statement itself casts a stigma upon the people. Some men may live in such a cloud of history, not even history, but just petty family incidents, that they lose all touch with things of the world. The men who live in the world know that these things of which we speak are known to the citizens of Pennsyl- vania. Let us free our state from this. ‘We have the opportunity now. The people are aroused as they never have een before. Our state must be the home of freemen, worthy to be such. How It Looks In Schuylkill. The Pottsville Chronicle has the fol- lowing: The large independent Republican vote which beyond doubt will > polled for Pattison is likely to have a bad ef- fect upon the Republican county, sen- atorial and legislative tickets and will be the means of electing the entire Democratic ticket by majorities rang- ing anywhere from 800 to 3,500. If the election were held tomorrow the Republican party would be snowed un- der by the mightiest majorities ever recorded in this county at any election. That the Republican party is up against it in regard to the big strike is evident to all who are witnessin the franctic endeavors of the Republi- can politicians to bring it to a settle- ment. We all know that the Republi- can party is entirely responsible for the condition which makes this strike possible or necessary. This is one of the real reasons why the large indepen- dent vote is going to be cast for the entire Democratic ticket in Schuylkill county on the 4th of next month. The other reason is that the independent Republicans cannot vote for the candi- dates of a party controlled by Mr. Quay. The dose even at a distance nauseates men who wish to do their own thinking. They to a man will vote the Democratic ticket, and the sight on election day. Republican ticket will be buried out of The 1lls of Pennyquayckcerania, The Quay candidate for governor continues on the down grade. The ‘humiliating spectacle which this mis- guided creature of the machine has made eof himself has never been equalled. It seems to have been his deliberate purpose to prove his abject subservience to the basest political in- fluences. The revelation of his infat- pation with Quayism, as shown through his extraordinary services in editing and endorsing the platform stupidities of his boss, followed by a frega install- ment of undeserved praise of such an unworthy leader, has been supprlement- ed by a series of public deliverances which are a disgrace to the state. In- telligent and sincere men cannot un- derstand how the author of these ef- forts could have held a place upon the bench for a dozen years. It looks like a case of political paresis. Either ex- Judge Pennypacker has parted com- pany with his conscience, or his ability to see clearly and think honestly and speak truthfully and sensibly has de- parted. Friend and foe alike have looked on with amazement. Nothing but the impetus and weight of parti- sanship will induce men who have no self-interest at stake to vote for such a man for the governorship of our great state. These alleged speeches have been a singular mixture of foolishness, egot- ism, weakness, impudence and down- right falsehood. If the man who has thus stripped himself of almost every vestige of public respect, had contin- ued the routine work of following the traditions and precedents of the court, keeping his blundering tongue silent upon public questions, he might have retained a moderate reputation as a public servant; but every time he opens his mouth this exponent and defender of Quayism excites the con- tempt of his own followers and the in- creasing wonder of the people. A cli- max was reached in the single speech the Quay candidate has been permit- ted to make in Philadelphia. Therein he said that the nomina- tion he holds was conferred by “the dominant party” without “effort, ex- penditure or even expectation’ on his part. The shameful fact is the Re- publican party did not nominate Pennypacker. Except for the imperi- ous command of an arrogant boss, he would not have had a single vote in the convention; and this brazen state- ment was made, too, in the presence of a man from whom forty delegates were corruptly taken, in order that the scheme to fool the people might be carried out. “It may well be doubt- ed,” cried the speaker, in an ecstacy of absurd vanity; “whether ever be- fore in the whole history of American politics such an event occurred.” There is no doubt about it. The more’s the shame. In no other state would such a mockery of popular rule be permitted. It was further observed, with char- acteristic obtuseness, or brazen demi- goggy, that herein was ‘“an example to other states and a promise of better things.” Instead, it is a warning to every other commonwealth against permitting the will of the people to be ignored and trampled upon. Drawing himself up by his bootstraps, Mr. Pennypacker solemnly declares it to be the duty of the man, “so called no matter at what sacrifice of personal comfort, happiness, etc., to take up the burden.” The simple fact is the hap- piest hour this ambitious slave of the Quay ring ever knew was that in which his name was put up as a candidate for the highest office in Pennsylvania. To babble about “personal sacrifice” in such a connection, is to insult the pub- lic intelligence. " For years past the man who made this silly statement has been dreaming of the governorship, and in order to secure this coveted honor he has de- meaned himself as no other citizen ever did. All the way through he has shown that Pennypackerism is, and always will be, the counterpart and fulfil- ment of Quayism. He has lauded as “Pennsylvania’s most distinguished statesman,” the one man who nas done more than any other to degrade the politics and the government of this state. He has defended gross public abuses, tried to shield public criminals, abused honest men, perverted history and in every way made himself offen- sive to the self-respecting citizenship of Pennsylvania. He has shown, every time he has taken the platform, that his election would be an unspeakable public calamity. The Pattison campaign managers have had no bar’l to draw upon, but the strength of a just cause outweighs stolen millions. wo FREON Quay on Bayonct Rule. While Boss Quay has been so loudly pretending a desire to settle the great coal strike peaceably and posing as the “friend” of the miners, it is well to recall what he said in a speech at Phoenixville, Chester coun- ty, on the night of October 27, 1900, Here it is: “Good government is to erect a citizen soldiery which can be thrown to any point in the commonwealth to sustain outraged law at 24 hours no- tice, and which can furnish FIFTEEN THOUSAND BAYONETS for the United States service on call.” The Quay shouters were too previ: ous, declaring their boss had settled the coal strike. Nothing was done until this arch political trickster quit meddling. The operators and miners knew he had but one purpose, and that was to use the situation to make polit ical capital. In this he failed utterly Had it not been for the betrayal of the miners’ cause at Harrisburg there would have been no strike. Certain mischevious and selfish po- litical elements worked hard to use John Mitchell as a political club, but they mistook their man. The miner's chieftan carries a level head on his shoulders. He sticks to his text and his great work, and has made a record as a friend of humanity of which any man might be proud. New Facilities for Reaching the Pacific Coast. Low Rates, Improved Train Service and Unprecedented Travel to California and Oregon. The Service this Winter to be Better than Ever. Special Attention is Being Given to Tourist Sleeping Car Parties. The trans-continental lines have heen making extensive efforts lately to improve their service to and from the Pacific coast, the latest development announced being that the personally-conducted feature of the Chicago & Northwestern and Union Pacific service is to be expanded and extended to include personally conducted excursions to the Coast twice a week from Chicago via Omaha, Denver and Salt Lake City, in addition to the threea week now operated to the Coast via Omaha and Cheyenne. This gives the tourist a chance to enjoy the most beautiful scenery that Colorado affords, the route being through Colorado Springs, past Pike’s Peak and via the Royal George, Glenwood Springs and Salt Lake City. This, with the two tours a week via Cheyenne and Ogden to Sacramento, San Frauneisco and Los Angeles and one a week to Portland, makes live personally-oconducted excursions per week from Chicago to California, Oregon and Washington. This personally conducted feature has expanded wonderfully in the last few years. The service has steadily improved, so that Pullmao tourist sleeping cars have all the conveniences of the standard sleeper and are particularly well adapted to the use of family parties and those who desire econo- my in travel. With the low rates now in effect to the Coast, this branch of the serv- ice promises to be very popular indeed, and will doubtless enable thousands to visit the Coast who otherwise would have been unable to go. These thousands will in- clude a large percentage of people who hope to find on the sunny slopes of the Pacific a place where life’s bard struggle may be made easier and where a competence may be gained with a small investment in fruit raising or some similar occupation; to which class is added the invalid who finds in the far Wess the dry and balm yair and sunshiny days that bring health and strength that the East failed to provide. ——*“The word ‘lady’ is the most abused word in the English langunage,’”’ growled the copy-reader who prides himself on be- ing a purist. ‘‘Perhaps1 should say the English language as applied to America. In this country there is little use for the word lady, especially in newspapers. It riles me to have to handle copy sent in by societies composed of charitably inclined women, in which I have to struggle with sentences about ‘iady managers,’ ‘ladies’ committees,” and the like. What's the matter with the word ‘woman?’ When we have ‘salesladies,’ washladies,” and God only knows what other sorts of ladies, I should think it would be a relief for these feminine persons who have some claim to social recognition to be known as simply .women.”’—Record.
