Rice, President Judge of the Superior Court, un derwent a surgical operation in Philadelphia, for appendicitis, last Saturday. This leaves the court with only four out of seven judges able to act. Judge Mitchell has not been on the bench for several years, and Judge Smith is also an invalid.

Uof for one good, strong, confident pull all together, and tho cause of dorm politics and honest government will surely triumph. The contest linn been an Inspiration to the upright citi zenship of the Btato. The candidates of the Erie convention have conduct ed their battle on the highest grounds. They have never onca descended to untenable positions or resorted to un worthy methods. Their appeal has been to the Intel ligence and patriotism of the people; to their highest and best Instincts. They have unselfishly put aside parti sanship. -They have welcomed every self-respecting ally. They have fear lessly met every Issue. They have mightily stirred the public conscience. The heart of the common wealth has been touched to Its core. The sanctity of the fireside has been their theme; the preservation of public virtue and honor their tnotto. Let there he a touching of elbows at the polls, a union of the patriotic sen timent of every community. Inde pendent Republicans have been shame fully defrauded of their right to a sep arate place on the ballot; but they can strike directly and effectively at the common enemy by using either the Democratic or the Ballot Reform column. They will thus assert and vindicate their manhood by a heavier vote against Qunylsm than might have been cast under other circumstances. They now have a double duty to per form, and they should unite to over whelm the machine and all Its works. Democrats who have uphold the standard of their faith through storm and sunshine should work as never before and see that every vote Is brought out. There are more than 500,000 disciples of Jefferson In Penn sylvania, nn I every man should answer the roll call of duty next Tuesday. Upon them rests the chief responsi bility. They have standard-bearers to be proud of. Let each county vie with Its neighbor In rolling up majorities for Pattlson, Guthrie and the whole ticket. Work hard for legislative can didates. An anti-machine . victory herein Is essential. A reform gov ernor should be sustained by honest law-makers, to the end that the peo ple may be well served. Push the bat tle till the last hour, and a great triumph, we are. assured, is certain. LAEOR WILL NOT BE DECEIVED. In nothing has ex-Judge Pennypack er more clearly and discreditably shown his uttbr unfitness for high pub lic office than through his small, petty, selfish references to the settlement of the coal strike. With characteristic stupidity, he assails other men for not taking action In this matter, when he never opened his own mouth upon the subject. It would have been of no use, as his meddling political friends soon found out. When the proper time came the power of public sentiment forcod peace, In the name of humanity. No credit Is due the terrified schemers who have read the handwriting on the wall. It was Quay hirelings in the legislature who killed the bill the pas sage of which might have prevented the conflict. The Quay machine has shown its selfish Indifference to the In terests of labor, and at this hour it is only desperately trying to deceive and use miners and other worklngmen to save itself from utter destruction. No amount of trickery or lying can hide the truth or mislead honest men. Governor Paulson's record, in the ur gent recommendation and approval of wise and just labor legislation, exceeds that of all Republican executives for 20 years past Nearly every enact ment of importance on this subject bears his signature. The coal miners know how valuable have been his ser vices, and upou many occasions they have so testified. It is the same with other workers, as was suggestively shown at Reading, where the railway men came forward with offers of earnest support. Dema gogic appeals to class prejudice, un manly attempts to excite unjust hostil ity, to honest representatives of the people, will not save the doomed Quay machine, and the weakling who de fends It and serves it so slavishly will be swept from public sight. The people must be taxed JiiO.OOO.OOO, the increased prices to pay for the coal strike. Charge it to the machine, which killed the miners bills in the last legislature. llnl-niiliM- wus (I'Ln.'l j i.iitili-7 n...l I courtesy, compared with Pennypacker's clownish foolishness; yet tho Quay can didate of 1S90 could not win. 19 HE FIT TO BE GOVERNOR? Ao the Quay machine candidate (or governor, Kx-Judgo Tcnnypackcr has been tho hardest riddle to solve ever presented to tho voters of the Keyrtone state. It was early discovered that he had cut some qucr tapers, In a literary-political way, while a Judge; but the day ho left the bench he tumbled into tho ring and ever slnco his ex traordinary performances have amaz ed, amused and disgunted by turn the onlookers. Former friends have anx iously asked the meaning of It all. Meanwhile tho ox-JudRe has waddled around the political tent utterly uncon scious of the effect of his self-revela-tlon. lie has sometimes tried to crack jokes, but his hearers couldn't sco the point. Upon one ludicrous occasion he had to explain where tho laugh ought to come in, but the effort was a dismal failure. lie tried to flirt with the women and said he was better looking than hl3 pictures In the newspapers. They didn't agree with him. Ordinar ily his personal demeanor has been that of a man conducting his own fu neral. The icicles drop off him and give reception committeemen a chill. He stood straight up one night and after abusing his dignified and manly opponent, cried out, In qucrelous tones: "Why not try another?" The answer everywhere heard was, "Well, if we swapped Bob Tattlson for you, we'd be dreadfully cheated, sure enough." The other members of the Quay aggrega tion have talked about everything but their candidate, but he has to flock by himself, between stumping stations. The "Pennsylvania Dutch" were ex pected to enthuse over their vote-seeking kinsman, but they havo repudiated the relationship. Tho soldier racket couldn't be worked, for the candidate was only on the edge of the great con flict. When he posed as the friend of the workingmen, some inquisitive peo ple looked Into the record and quickly discovered how he was in the habit of tumbling helpless labor plaintiffs out of court, when they rued for damages. He awkwardly made love to the farm ers, but the men of the soil said it might be the hand of an amateur squash raiser, but It was the oily tongue of a political green-goods man. When he proudly talked of his illustri ous ancestry, impertinent critics made side remarks about Darwin's evolu tion theory and asked what had become of the organ grinder and "the other member of the family." In his forlorn swing around tho cir cle, Ex-Judge Pennypacker has not re ceived one tood, hearty, encouraging welcome. Tho froat has been on the pumpkin every time, and nobody is to blame but the hapless creature him self. Before starting out ho ostenta tiously put on the collar of Quayism, and the people took him at his word. Voters who want an odious and cor rupt ring to remain in power, will vote for its candidate. Those who do not will turn him down, end his condemna tion at the polls ought to be over whelming. The honor, dignity and welfare of Pennsylvania Imperatively demand it. Over 100,000 Democratic and Re publican voters who were led off by Swallow, in 1898, are this year in line for Tattison. The issue between good and bad government is clearly drawn and every hair adds to the strength of the great reform movement of 1902. Hensel knocked out the silly lie about the coal trust. ' The former at torney general promptly showed that the second Pattlson administration did its whole duty with regard to this as in all other matters. That big ball the Republicans were going to roll from Erie to the Dela ware broke down at the start; typical of Pennypacker's dismal failure on the stump from the beginning to the end. Look to the legislature. Let there be active work in every district for can didates who will smite the machine and help to restore decent government at Harrjsburg. Hoodie, the last refuge of political vllllans, is the only hope of the ma chine. Let the conspirators be over whelmed by the honest voters of Penn sylvania. When Guthrie presides in the sen ate at Harritburg the political auc tioneer will go out of business. Brib ery will become a lost art. They forced Elkln into the field to help their beaten candidate and their last Btato was worse than their first. Remembor that a full vote and fair count meai.3 a rc.'oiui victory.
