Ing to influential “outside” opposition,

revenue has continued to grow so stead-

have remained about as unnecessarily
heavy as they used to be, despite the
$9,000,000 secretly paid for capitol
“extras” since the bill to build the
capitol was enacted in 1901. But the
fact remains that if the two bills had
been passed, the surplus would have
been so unusually large that the inno-

their servants in Harrisburg were

Pennypacker Responsible.
Congressman Graham, of Allegheny,
member of the capitol commission, re
ferg strong advice of Governor
Pennypacker as largely influencing the
extravagant secret expenditures of the
$9,0004000. Graham tells of the
governor's repeated urging on of such
fitting up as would establish “a grand
monument.” Pennypacker presi.
dent of the of grounds
and buildings, stands chi fly responsi-
ble for the “going the limit” in
eretly drawing upon the “general un-
appropriated” fund of the state for the
“furnishings.” To say that Pennypack-
er did not know of what was going on
in the board over he
would reflect upon his intelligence,
and he has been for many years a
Judge on the bench.
Pennypacker signed the two gen-
eral appropriation bills of 1902 and
19805 In each of those bills was the
proviso that the power of the board
of public buildings and grounds to
buy furniture should not be regarded
as authorizing them to help to “com-
plete” the capitol. The governor.
while presiding over the meetings of
the board when contracts for “furnish
ings” were let, was surely not so un.
sophisticated as not to know that the
extra millions were being abstracted
from the banks for “furniture” with
out the * knowledge of the people

ply baving beed®cooped out of the
enormous surplus at the pleasure eof
the poard, leaving ten milloing, more
or less. In the depositories all the
while, the people could not have
known anything about the matter until
the honest, vigilant State Treasurer
Berry exposed it.
Would Stuart Do Better?
Would any of the Republican state
officials have exposed {t? The answer
is that even Pennypacker waited until
he and his fellow members were foun
out by Berry before they felt that they
must make a report. Pennypacker,
Hke the rest, remained silent ‘while
the commonwealth was being deceived
by the boast that the capitol had been
“completed” within the original ap
propriation. Now, with a governor

JOHN MOYER
A well known and respected citi
zen of Potter township died Sunday
afternoon, Reference is made to the
death of John Moyer, of near Colyer.
His age was seveuty-five years. In-
terment took place Wednesday morn-
ing, at Tusseyville, Rev. D. Gress
officiating.
Mr. Moyer was a life long mewmoer
of the Reformed church and of a re-
tiring disposition. The Moyer home
was, however, one of those old-fashion-
ed homes where the welcome to the
stranger was felt rather than heard,
and few families were more profuse in
their attentions to any one who by in-
vitation or accident became a guest,
The deceased was born and raised
on the farm on which he died. Bome
years ago his only child, John Henry
Moyer, set up house-keeping at the old
homestead, and since then the de.
ceased his home with him.
This son is his survivor, Mrs. Moyer,
nee Catharine Keller, having died.

he was a cabinet maker, and conduct.
