.DEFEAT OF PENROSE
PRESAGED IN LARGE
I NON-PARTISAN VOTE
Heavy Republican Enrol
ment Seems to Spell Split
ting of Tickets and Brum
baugh Victory.
K victory for Or. Mat tin C). Briim
haush. Republican gubernatorial cnndl
fiatc, and the defeat of Senator Pentose
on November 3, nro Indicated by the
complete unolllclnl returns for the three
fall reslslratloii days of 13U.
In addition to n general back-to-tho-Itcpubllcan
patty movement, a strong In
dependent vote was icslstorcd. Political
leaders said today that tho unusually
large non-parUsan enrolment nnd the
heavy Republican cntolment prcsafjes the
plltUnr of tickets by voters of all three
parties In favor of Doctor Brumbaugh
and A. Mitchell rainier, renrose's Demo
eratlc opponent.
Approximately 175,000 electors have
qualified to vote In November for the
eleotion of a United States Senator, a
Governor, Congressmen and Stato oftl
tere. Of tills number two-thirds onrollcd
as Republicans and more than 45,000 elec
tor who declined to enroll were enrolled
as "non-partisans."
The srrotiK and Independent candidacy
of Doctor Brumbaugh attracted back to
the Republican party thousands of Re
publicans who Joined tho Washington and
Democratic parties In the triangular tight
tor the Presidency In 1012. Thcso thou
sands of Republicans, together with a
large part of the "non-partisan" vote,
see In Doctor Brumbaugh's candidacy an
opportunity to rehabilitate the Repub
lican party.
INDEPENDENCE AT POLLS EX
PECTED. The Inevitable result of the largo "non
partisan" registration, political leaders
say, rrlll be Independence at the polls In
November. Many Brumbaugh followers
will vote for Palmer for Unltid States
Senator, and many Progressives will vote
for Brumbaugh In preference to Vanca
C. McCorrrtlck, the Democratic nominee,
who Is also tho Washington party can
didate for Governor.
A large number of the electors enrolled
ns "non-partisans" nro former Washing
ton party voters, who heeded the call
Bent out by Independent Washington party
leaders opposed to tho Fllnn-Vnn Val
kenburg regime, and refused to enroll
under the Progressive standard.
This call was sent out soveral days
ago to voters of Philadelphia, following
a conference between It. It. Quay, of
Pittsburgh, and Philadelphia Washington
party Independents. The cntlro autl-I'llnti-Van
Vulkcnbutg vote Is oxpectcd to
be cast for Doctor Brumbaugh.
Tho utter collapse of the Washington
party Is shown by the following complete
but unofficial returns for the three daya"
registration:

Democratic '-'ljrx!
Yv'sshlnKton 1'UOl
Non-Partisan , 4,r.,10S
Total, thrco flnys, 10M 270.053
PARTY NEARLY AS STRONG AS IN
100S.
The back-to-the-party movement has
been so complete, Republican leaders
point out. that the Republican strength
lsnow almost whete It was in 190S. The
prote in Philadelphia for Taft that jcar
was 155,163.
In 1010 Tencr received only 130.465 votes
In Philadelphia. The Republican voto
ngain fell off In 1911. when George H.
Earle, Jr., Blankenburg's Republican op
ponent for Mayor, received 130,122.
Political leaders are predicting that
Doctor Brumbaugh "will get a larger Re
publican voto hi Philadelphia than did
either Tcner cr Karle. as the vote for
both Tener and Earle was 60,000 below
the Republican registration this year.
The inroads that the Republicans have
made on the Rooswvclt third party move
ment Is bltown In a comparison of figures
with the results In 1912. That year Taft
received 01,911 votes In Philadelphia and
;toosevelt received 82,963. The 1914 Repub
Ican registration of 1S3.2IS is more than
f000 greater than the combined Ronsevelt
U'aft vote of two years ago.

ANTI-SALOON CHIEF
ATTACKS PENROSEISM
Dr. Homer W. Tope Asks People to
Stand Un for Interests of State.
An appeal to tho people of Pennsylva
nia to elect candidates who arc standing
up for tho lntcrestsof the people of the
State nnd not for their own private In
terests nnd the Interests of those whose
iies thoy ore paid to grind, was made
yesterday by the Rev. Dr. Homer W. Tope,
Superintendent of the Anti-Saloon League

of the campaign of tho local option forces
of this state.
"This Is the opening battle of tho antl
liquor war In this country," Doctor Tope.
"We may loso one or moro battles, but
wo are confident wo will win In the end.
As tho war across the sea Is a shame to
human nature, n. shame to Christianity

COUNCILS' APATHY
BLAMED FOR PERIL
TO CITY'S HEALTH
Housing Commission Urges
Relief From Grossly In
sanitary Conditions in
Many Sections.
Relief from grossly unsanitary condi
tions existing in many sections of tho
city haB again been urged upon Councils
In a letter from the Philadelphia Hous
ing Commission, which asks both the Se
lect and Common branches of the city
administration to provide adequate funds
for the organization of a Division of
Housing and Sanitation, icqulrcd by the
act of Assembly of July 22, 1913.
It Is pointed out in the letter that the
apathetic attitude of Councils concern
ing tho welfare of citizens of Philadel
phia Is responsible for a condition which
Is dangerous to public health, and equally
damaging in its influence upon morals.
Failure to provide necessary Inspection
service, according to the Housing Com
mission, haB left B0 per cent, of over SSOO
nuisances nnd violations of housing laws,
repotted by the commission to the Bu
reau of Health, unattended to since the
first of last January.
The letter, In part, reads:
"We are well aware that this matter
has been before you for over a year
now, and although many ordinances re
lating thereto have been Introduced and
considered by your Committee on
Finances and your honorable bodies, yet
no definite action has been taken. Seven
tiroes has his Honor, Mayor Blankenburg,
requested you to make appropriation for
this division. Six times have communica
tions from the Department of Publlo
Health and Charities been sent to you,
calling attention to the Importance of
early action. Twice has City Solicitor
Ryan urged upon you the legal obliga
tion to conform to this act of Assembly.
The Philadelphia Housing Commission
has forwarded you the opinion of Messrs.
Frank P. Prlchard and John O. Johnson
that the law Is mandatory. Twice have
the couits signified their belief that the
act Is constitutional. Thirty social and
philanthropic associations have peti
tioned you In behalf of the poor for whom
they are working to make the law op
erative. What real reason can there be
for further delay?
"Furthermore, certain provisions In the
tenement law of 1833, which would be
repealed by the new housing code are
not antl never have been thoroughly In
forced. Were this old law of 1535 Inforced
as It stands, CO per cent, of the tenements
of this city would have to close. Through
the inactivity of your honorable bodies
this old law of 1893 still remains on the
statute books, and the city holds the
anomalous position of being a party, and
knowingly so, to the violations of this
law."
OBJECTIONS ARE FILED
TO "NON-PARTISAN TICKET"
Term Is Declared to Be Confusing
and to Endanger Judicial Ballot,
HARRISBI'RO. Oct. 5.-Objectlons to
nominations of candidates on the "non
partisan ticket" In seven districts were
tiled today with the Dauphin County
Court, nnd heurlngs were llxed by Judge
McCarrelt for next Monday afternoon.
Among the defendants are the follow
ing: George P. Darrow, 6th Congres
sional; Kdwurd W. Patton, 4th Senatorial;
John McClintlck and William Walsh,
31st Philadelphia Assembly. All the
others ate from Allegheny.
The principal objection Is that "non
partisan" Is a confusing term because of
the official non-partisan ballot for ju
dicial ulllces.
William M Haigest. of Harrisburg,
filed the Eastern objections and George
W. Allen, of Pittsburgh, the Western.
Allen is the man who filed the "personal
liberty" nominations last week. Hargest
is a strong supporter of Judge Kutikel
for the Supreme Court, and Allen Is
equally strong for Robert S. Frazer, of
Allegheny. Each says that a "non
partisan" ticket of such a character en
dangers the judicial ballot.

COL. HARVEY'S CALL
t OH THE PRESIDENT
A PUZZLE TO MANY
Washington Asks What
Peace Meeting Means and
Sees Cryptic Phrase in Mr.
Wilson's Explanation.
tntO.! OUR STATP COltRFSrO.SDr.XT.l
WASHINGTON. Oct. 6. - Politicians
were treated to the sensation of tho J ear
last night when the announcement was
Issued nt the White House Hint Presi
dent Wltson had conferred with Colonel
George Ilnttcy, tho New York editor,
who hni been the most severe critic of
the Administration. Before their misun
derstanding in 1912. nfter the now historic
conference nt the Manhattan Club In
New York, Mr. Wilson nnd Colonel Har
vey were most Intimate friends.
In the prc-convtntion campaign. Mr.
Wilson, then Governor of New Jersey,
reached the decision that Colonel Hnrvey
wns too Intimate with certain Wall
street Interests, and ho politely, but firm
ly, Informed the Colonel thnt his support
was "hurting rather than helping the
Wilson presidential boom." Colonel Har
vey promptly withdrew the name of
Woodrow Wilson from the masthead of
the editorial page of Harper's Weekly,
where It had nppeard for months ns the
magazine's choice for the presldentlnl
nomination.
Several weeks later the story of tho
meeting at the Manhattan Club, when
Colonel Harvey nnd Colonel Henry Wat
tcrson, of Kentucky, Invited the New
Jersey Governor to accept tho financial
support of Thomas F. Ryan hi his cam
paign for the presidential nomination, was
made public. Governor Wilson, accord
ing to the generally accepted version of
the controversy at the time, refused to
accept the support of Mr. Ryan.
This announcement was Issued by the
White 'House last night:
"Colonel Harvey, on the Invitation of
the President, spent an hour with him at
the White House this afternoon, discuss
ing the general situation."
Republican nnd Democratic politicians
are trying today to agree upon a defini
tion of what was meant In the cryptlo
stntement by ."the general situation. "
Some of the Republican leaders believe
that the pending legislative program of
the administration was discussed, while
the Democrats Interpret the White House
statement as meaning that the President
and Colonol Harvey confined their dis
cussion to financial and Industrial con
ditions which have been disturbed by the
European war. The plight of the cotton
growers In the South Is known to be
causing the President considerable con
cern. Because of the fact that the President
choose "Peace Sunday" as the day for
his conference with Colonel Harvey has
caused considerable comment In Wash
ington. Colonel Harvey was the first
man to urge Mr. Wilson, then President
of Princeton University, to accept the
Democratic Gubernatorial nomination In
New Jersoy In 1910.
Within a few weeks after the Inaugu
ration of Mr. Wilson at Trenton, Colonel
Harvey began to sound out party lead
ers In every section of the country as
to the advisability of nominating Gov
ernor Wilson for President. William P.
McCombs. then a little known lawyer
in New York, and Byron Newton, now
Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, who
was a newspaper reporter In New York,
joined with Colonel Harvey and a sys
tematic campaign was launched in the
Interest of Governor Wilson.

BRUMBAUGH, IN CITY,
TELLS WHY VICTORY
SEEMS CERTAIN NOW
Declares Many Democrats
, and Progressives in All
Parts of State Are Promis
ing Support.
Dr. MHrtln U. Brumbaugh, the Repub
lican nominee for Governor, radiantly
confident of the outcome of his cam
paign, stopped nt tho headquarters of
the Urumbaiigh Citizens' Committee In
the Lincoln tJulldlng today Just long
enough to nssiiip lift) supporters that five
weeks' titnipalgnlng In nil parts of the
ritfltr hittl lonvlmrd him that ther was
no longei miy douot about how the peo
ple will drilde on Not ember 3.
TIip final legislation on Saturday, the
last dn to ciunllfj for the November
plcctlon, he said, wns the ansvtir of the
people to any iiuestlon ns to which party
would prevail. The bnt'k-to-Hrptibllcan-tinrt)
movement might he seen, lie de
clared, not only In Philadelphia, but In
every county In the State.
"The Voice of the people at the polls
on Pnturdoy ttns the answer lo Colonel
Roosevelt In till State," he added.
"I cotetcd luoio than 000 iiiIIps In the
notthern criitnil pnrt of tlm State Inst
week, and In almost evorv town where I
spiikt; I rouiil hi- pluliily thr disintegra
tion of thr Washington paity. Many
Dcmucinti, too. mine to me nnd pledged
their support. This wn.s largely on ac
count of their opposition to tho Admin
istration's tvnr tax In time of peace. The
people In Pennsylvania will have to bear
neatly 10 per rent, of this tax, hut It Is
not the nnioutit which they will have to
pay, hut the ptlnclple to which they
make the strongest objection.
"The campaign Issues throughout Pot
ter, Tioga, Bradford and MoKean Coun
ties ni e good roads, reforestation of
their hills, good rurat schools and prob
lems of agricultural Importance. Local
option, too, is a vital Issue thote, and
I made It ns plain oh I could that I am
for local option heart and soul. Despite
the oltoits of somo to misrepresent my
position on this question I think I have
made It clenr.
"The most remarkable part of It all
to me Is the great number of former
pupils of mine and teachers whom I
meet. In one smnll rural community I
met a woman, a former pupil of mine,
whose husband wns, until the primaries,
n candidate on the Progressive ticket for
the Legislature. She told me that Bhe
had gone through the district circulat
ing my petition while her husband was
circulating his on another ticket. And
on November 3 she declared there would
bo only one tote her husband's that
ttoultl not be mlno In that division.
"There lo one thing certain; whether
victorious or defeated, I shall be a good
sport," concluded Doctor Brumbaugh.
"To be a modest victor or to submit
to defeat without complaint I think one
of the finest things wo may see In any
candidate."
Doctor Brumbaugh will leave this after
noon for flanlsburg, and tomorrow
morning he will resume his campaign in
the Cumberland Valley.
