THE MAOHISE'S FIGtiT-
Utitnde of President Boosevelt and His
Administration Toward the State Gar.?-
svry Expression That Has Come From the
President and His Advisors is Against the
Machine and its Corrupt methods.
The Philadelphia Record of recent
norning says editorially: Within
two weeks of the close of the con
test, when all signs indicate an
3verwhelming defeat of the Machine
In both city and state, too much
credit cannot be given to the in
luence of President Roosevelt and
lis administration in contributing
o the promised result. Although
he President could not with
propriety interfere in a local
contest in which no national issues
ire involved, from the beginning all
aave known that his sympathies
were with the Republican revolu
tion in Pennsylvania. Then foll
owed the trenchant epigram of Mr.
Aoot as he was about to enter upon
.he office of Secretary of State, de
scribing the Durham-McNichol
landitti as "a corrupt and criminal
combination masquerading under
:he name of Republican." Next
me the incisive utterances of Sec
retary Bonaparte of the same pur
xrt. Finally we have the honest
ind manly declaration of Secretary
Taft that if he were in Cincinnati
at this election he would vote
against the Republican Machine.
How much greater reason would he
have to vote against the Durham
McNichol ticket if he were a citizen
of Philadelphia! As a consequence
of the attitude of the president and
of the members of his cabinet, as
well as of the Republican party
throughout the land, the Machine
has vainly appealed to prominent
Republicans to come into the state
and make speeches under its au
spices. Thus the Pennsylvania Machine
is exscinded as a dangerous excre
scence from the wholesome body of
the Republican party and is left to
perish in its iniquity. In the con
ditions that have been developed
a triumph of the Peurose-Durham
combination would be a triumph of
the forces of evil over the better
political elements of all parties.
But with the immense encourage
ment afforded by the Roosevelt ad
ministration and the national Re
publican party so sinister an event
is not probable. All signs indicate
that the revolution in Pennsylvan
ia in marching on to an assured
victory. ,
Vote the straight Democratic
ticket.

Graft ia The Schools-
In some counties of the state it
is charged that school directors sell
the apDointments of teachers, com-
pelling the latter to turn over a
certain Donion 01 tneir salaries Tn
Luzerne county the practice seems
to prevail. Speaking on the sub
ject recently, Dr. J. P. Welsh said:
aome time ago, a youug woman
wrote to me in detail ot how posi
tions in schools are bought and sold
in Luzerne county. The names of
directors who took money and the
amounts paid by teachers were giv
en. I immediately sent a commu
nication to the State Superintendent
of Schools and renuesterl that ho
! take some steps to investigate.
'Wnetlier or not the proper au
thorities are now in possession of
this evidence for prosecution pur
poses I do not know.
"Numerous letters reach me from
normal graduates regarding the
bribery in some of the townships.
1 have in mind one case where the
writer asked my opinion on the ad
visability of payiug a director a cer
tain sum lor a school. She said all
others had to do so, and unless she
complied the position would be
given to another.
"Graft in school matters is a ter
rible thing. It should be stopped,
and I cannot see why action has
not been taken before. There is
plenty of evidence of bribery in
Luzerne County and the officials
ought to secure it and deal fearless
ly with the offenders.
"It has come to such a pass that
teachers are beginning to look upon
the directors' levies as legitimate
compensation. One of the normal
school instructors, the late Prof.
Detweller, one time asked the catch
question, 'Who pays the school di
rectors?' "A former teacher in Luzerne
County, who had returned to us
for a special course, answered in all
seriousness, 'The teachers pay the
directors.'
"In mining districts, where sal
aries are large, I find there is much
graft-seeking by directors."
