McCnrreil was a, Statu yen .11 or. With the help of his own vo,e a law was enacted appropriat ing i'.i j ii mi for the construction of ti new capitol building. That law created a Commission of which Jlr. M.-Cairell became a member which was boaud "to complete and deliver" a capltol building, "ready for occu pancy and furnishing not later than Nov. 15th lRio, "When tho Legis lature a.-.Jeltihled for tho session of liSIKi it found nn unfinished building resembling u tobacco warehouse. Xot a Kit Jud;o of Cnifters. Tho law not only required the -Htiletlon of a building" w khin the fled amount but actually for : the Commissioner!! from eon - lug for the expenditure of tiny !!" In excess of that figuro. Yet :,tor, now Juds McCiirrell, ccr- ;ed that the bulldln? wan com ; . .'.(J. It was so absurd a Btatoment iluii everybody was nstounded. The rough brick walls on tho outside and the burlap walls on the Inside stood as palpable protests against the fraud. No charge of Rraff.lng was publicly made but the posslp of the corridors freely charged not only that tho contractors had looted the State hut that tho Building Com missioners had partlclputt-d in t'ae division of the spoils. Of course a man so closely arso clated with the construction of the capitol would not be Bafe in the position of determining the guilt of the grafters. Naturally he would pre fer that the agitation of the ques tion be discontinued as speedily aa possible and the surest and Bafeet way to stop the agitation of a ques tion Is to forget It. Four years ago Mr. McCarrell aspired to a seat on the bench and was defeated. Again a year ago he became a candidate and wag forced out of the fight by public sentiment. A man of his reputation and environment wasn't needed on the Dauphin county bench at those times. But no other kind will serve the purpose now and Mc Carrell has been both nominated and appointed. The plain Inference Is that there will be no trial of the grafters. They will be Indicted, of course, and the pretense will be kei)t up tbat there Is an Intention to prosecute. Dut It Is a falBe and fraudulent pretense. McCarrell has too much Interest In the suppression of the facts to per mit a Judicial Investigation If he Is able to prevent It and If be Is a Judge on the bench In the court In which the cases are scheduled for trial he can prevent It. Governor Stuart must have known this when he appointed McCarrell to the bench and the suspicion is Justified that he made the appointment for the pur pose of preventing the trial. IiiHuriuice Grafters Immune, There are other grounds, more over, for the belief that it Is not the Intention to prosecute those grafters. During the special session of the Legislature of 1908 tho Insurance Department of tho State was Invest! gated. Tho first witness examined during that Inquiry was Samuel W. McCulloch, Deputy Insurance Com mlssloner. Mr. McCulloch testified positively that Clayton V. Erb, Ed ward J. Davis, R. J. Reed and Is rael O. Stone were on the payroll of the Department, received checks regularly for many months though they wore never at the Department and nover performed any work for the State and notwithstanding there was no authority of law for paying them. Mr. MoCullocn also testified to other misfeasances In the Depart ment for which tho Insurance Com missioner was responsible. Among other things he declarod that his own salary was augmented frenuent ly by adding expense accounts and lnferenttally stated that whenever Csotpln Erb needed money he would make requisition on tho Department anl fcJt whatever sums he wanted HU cstlmony was corroborated by Davis, Reed and Stone and It vu r urn u mil uuuni radically proved that one of thso ITiS'0!UT3 of UlO Department V I.S re:clvlng tho salary as a re.vard for i-.ji vlce to tl o machine ns a member of the perjure) Jury which nciiulttod Sam Ualler after his practical con f'.v. ion of guilt. Insurance Comnilssicner Durham T.lio was responsible for and par ticipated In these cil.ues against the E'rte Is fvMliig fe.'idy to resume his position as "the most Influential cill Kii of Philadelphia." If tiovoruor iHii.v-t Is ir.ili ta purify tho public life of the Commonwealth by purg ing it. of i-raftors through tho ngt-ncy cf the orimii'nl courts, why doesn't he bec.ln with those outlaws who were 'xpos?J more than n year and a-half ufn? Why are not those men sent to prison as an admonition to others who are tempted to loot and In order to vindicate the law which has been outraged? Hlmply because public sentiment seems to have for got the Crimes of those men, though bo recent. Stuart Not ft Koformor. And It Is precisely for this reason that the machine managers includ ing Governor Stuart, are anxious to prevent the trial of th grafters now under the lime light of popular ex ecration. They know that such things are soon fonui. Durham was force 1 to resign at the time and McNicl'.oH was compelled to declare that hs would not again participate In muni, clpal spoils. Hut they are both back at the old biu-hie-s and the old tricks, Juft as Sanderson and Huston and the other capital prafters will again tniiif ltuo favor in the machine and resume tl.e'r predatory operations wl'hln a few montlm unless the n.a c.hhio Is completely exterminated by the election of John O. Harman this fall. in th? 1K-M of tho;;e- events It Is absurd to say that (lovernor Stuart I? a reformer. He Is personally hoiio-d, no do.i.lit Just as Judge lVn nypaclter was personally beyond re proach when he became Governor. l'"t ho is Just as serviceable to the machine as Penny-packer. He won't openly roat of his lnlquitieb as that ntmormuily aln old man did. 11 ut he will shield crimes perpetrated for the benefit of the party and protect criminals who havy served tho or ganlation precisely as his predecess or (lid. His appointment of McCar rell to the Dauphin county bench nt this time is the niosl convincing and conclusive evidence of this tact. Pen rose knew his man. Governor Stuart never Interfere 1 with nnift when he was Mayor of Philadelphia and he will not be oiT ensive to his party leaders as Gover nor. It wns during his administration of tho municipal government that the Contractors' combine wtis organ ized. It was Dave Martin rather than Durham who was the boss In those days. Hut the difference Is without a distinction. A cancer is loathsome no matter what tho doctor calls it and Durham is no worse than Martin. In fact when Martin suc ceeded Durham as Insurance Com missioner he continued the padded payroll until the shadow of the ap proaching investigation admonished him to "clear the decks.,' Then ho dropped Davis, Reed and Stone. Enmity to Koosovelt SH-ures 1'uvor- The Republican machine is striv ing to get complete control of the administration of the State govern ment because It Is necessary In or der to secure the re-election, of Pen rose and control the Delegates to the next National convention against Roosevelt. The President has in censed the machine leaders In this State by his indifference to their wants. One of the most potent rea sons for the nomination of Sheatz is that he shares this antipathy to Roosevelt. It was only when he vot ed against the Creasy resolution en dorsing the President's policies and pledging the moral support of the Legislature to his railroad rate bill that Sheatz became a prime favorite of the machine and the nomination for State Treasurer Is his recom pense for that slnster service. If Sheatz Is defeated the machine will be destroyed absolutely. The control of the State deposits 1b es sential to machine success. The po litical bankers must be fed and fat tened or else they won't contribute to the corruption fund and without a corruption fund the machine is impotent. No self-respecting man will vote for Its candidates and few of the other kind will do so unless they are paid. The money to pay them can't be got unless the mach ine has control of the Treasury. The last two years have been the hard est years of the life of the machine. Another two years without the treas ury and they will despair. The bood- lors won't work for nothing. These are the reasons why the friends of good government should strive earnestly for the election of John G. Harman. He Is a splendid specimen of American citizenship. He Is honest, able and courageous. If he is elected the policies of Mr. Berry will he scrupulously followed. If he Is elected the capltol grafters will be prosecuted and punished not withstanding the effort to pack the court In tholr Interest as McCarrell tried to pack the Philadelphia Jury In the Interest of Quay half a dozen years or so ago. O. D. H. Mark tho Vast IMffercnoe. Prom the Eastern Argus. The Republicans of the state of Pennsylvania on each occasion upon wblch thoy are offered an opportunity to express any sentiment In resolu tions, spread themselves in condem nation of th capltol grafters. Loudly do they call for the bringing of the guilty to Justice on paper. Strenu ously they urge that they be permit ted to band out the Justice to the guilty. That Is one side of the ques tion. Witness how dtftorently the effective work of the organization progresses. Note the delay tn bring ing the men accused of wrong doing into tne courts, consider the deter mlnatlon of the political machine to put off the trials in court until after the fall election. Any fair minded cltl. ten can see the fallacy of tbe position of the Republicans of the state In the premises, cone ure ror the capltol grafters serves toe purpose of bllnd- ing easily duped voters Into the sup port cf the Republican ttoml-ieo. V'lt'j the election of tho maclilni candi date to tho office of state treasurer nnd that department of the state government again under the rule of the gang, tho prosecution of th" cnpl tol grafters might easily bo expec-'l to develop Into a farce. It wo. .Id be folly In tho extreme oven to ex pect that tho machine lenders would no active In handing out to tuemb' rn of their own gang the sort of punish, tnent which the crime seelus io m-.'flt. NlgiiltlcMiico of n Vote for She. it?.. Prom the Philadelphia l.v i.ril. Both Governor Stuart and Senator Knox shrewdly avoided r.ll mention to the Republican League of Club Of tho lssuo of the re-election of Senator Penrose that Is involved in directly, but no loss certainly, In this Pennsylvania contest. While they indulged In mutual admiration. tb y had not one word to say for Senator Penrose. This may bo thought un kind when it Is considered that the influence of 'enator Penrose was es sential to tho election of Senator Knox, and that his voh o was equally potential In the nomlnat'on of C,o" ernor Stuart. Hut It was Ulndnoss In the Governor and Senator to nt tetnpt to keep the chieftain of the Machine In tho background of this campaign, if such a thliiy; were possible. Yet everybody know that a vote for John O. She-';: is a vote for Holes Penrose, and thut the election of Sheptz would mean tho triumph of the Moo'ilu". t j, bo followed by ti e c rta'n lvt.ini of lYnroao to the rulu.il il:.ii' s .'itit.te. , Peimsylviiiibl.

Hut a hitch was found in the arraugoinutit when tho votes were counted in November 1905. In the legislature of 1907 John O.

Why is It necessary to make this point so.emphv'c?

If Mr. Sheatz really Is an honest man, why do tho spellbinders find it necfeHsary to make that fact so prominent? governor of the Miiohlno. From the Harrisburg Patriot. Thousands of his fellow-cltlzens who would rather believe Governor Edwin S. Stuart a patriot and a statesman than a partisan politician will, for the Governor's own sake, regTet that he has seen fit only a few weeks before election to appoint Mr. McCarrell to the vacancy on the Dauphin county bench. In this act Mr. Stuart has shown tbat he considers himself rather the Governor of a party than the Gov ernor of the people. moments Against Sheatz. From tho Blossburg Advertiser. We do not believe that the Tioga county miners, farmers and Old soldiers will support John O. Sheatz for State Treasurer after his gang legislative record has been ex posed. Neither do we see how any newspaper publisher can support him because of his vote for the presi muzzier. He Is of the gang, and for the gang first nnd last. A Strong Double Team. From the Willlamsport Sun. With both the old soldiers, and the BOUB of old soldiers, entering protest against the Machine bosses' defeat of tho Cochran pension bill there will be a heavy verdict against Sheatz at the ballot box in Novem ber.
