MuMAU, ce ss———— Increase the School Appropriation, Members of the legislature will be elected this fall, the taxpayers should take advantage of the oppor- tunity to sound the candidates on the question of increasing the state appro- priation for public schools. During the past four years the school appro- priation has been manipulated in such and a way that school districts have been f deprived of a large portion of ihe ap- propriation and st the same time laws have been passed which added to the coat of maintaining the schools in the majority of districts. Present conditions are such that the voter may with propriety approach the candidate and make demand as to how, if elected, he would vote on such a question. ce — Rebersburg.

Ia form- {ng these monopolies, capitalists have not only not hesitated to break the or- dinary laws of the land, but they have committed crimes of violence, not to egpeak of the ruin of widow and or- phans; but their lawlessness has con- sisted chiefly in the wholesale corrup- tion of the commonwealth, Most of the political rottenness is traceable di. to the of the managers of street companies, gas companies raliroad corporation desire to law with impunity rectly doors Cit who tigation at Phila- wn that the corrupt en t Pennsylvanld ompany and certain favored ys were intimate and gen- throughout the system ip to the immediate vicin. ident Cassatt's office. that the rob- ed have had and still have "the protection, nay slatures, courts and pros.
