In this city have- suspended operations

the forenoon n rousing welcome by 500
college students at Grove City College,
whero nonpolttlcnt talks were made, nnd
b noon-hour mass meeting drawing 100m
voters to the courthouse yard here, Dr.
Martin G. Brumbaugh and tho Republl-
can State campaigners started with a
rush today's Invasion of Mercer and
Lawrence Counties.
"I want your help to bring Pennsyl
vania to the most ndvanced ground taken
by any fHnto In the Union In remedial
legislation," Doctor Hrumbaugh told the
courthouse crowd, Introducing the most
fervent plea he has yet made In the In
terest of a child and women's labor act,
a worklngman's compensation act and
other humanitarian legislation.
In tho nartv were Henry Houck, nomi
nee for Lieutenant Governor, and John
R. It Scott, nominee for Congressman-at-large,
and this afternoon they cam
paigned In Mercer County towns preced
ing simultaneous meetings tonight at
Sharon, this county, and Now Castle,

Join tho party at Sharon, and Frank 13.
McClaln, nomlneo for Lieutenant Gover
nor, will open tho New Castle meeting.
At Uutlcr, where Doctor Ilrumbaugh
spoke last night, the road question also
had a prominent placo In his address.
Hero he said:
"I want to work for my salary and I
want every other man to do the same.
If there arc any people now with the
public service who aro not rendering hon
est sorvlco to tho Commonwealth, If you
chouse me for Governor they will have to
go, and we will put that money Into
roads." Ho then described the right kind
of men to build and superintend the
roads In Pennsylvania.
The pledge for local option which Doc
tor Brumbaugh has made repeatedly
throughout his campaign he repeated last
night.
"There are those," he said, "who have
chosen deliberately to misrepresent my
position on a great moral question. I
lyn In favor of local option, county by
county, and I shall stand on that plat
form to the end. I would bo false to the
statement of my principles If I did not
make myself clear on that and on every
other moral proposition to the people of
Pennsylvania."
DEMOCRATS BACK "DRYS"
IN A NEW JERSEY TOWN
Anti-Saloon Workers in Pleasantville
Aided by Second District Committee.
ATLANTIC CITY, N. J.. Oct. 15. .John
llnrleycom has been made n political Is
sue hi tho Second Congressional District
by the action of the Democratic Campaign
Committee In embracing the cause of
antl-saloonlsts In Pleasantville, where
temperance folk aro waging a spectacu
lar battle to keep the town "dry."
Enthusiasm swept the crusaders' ranks
last night, when Postmaster William B.
Loudonslager, of this city, campaign
manager for Representative J. Thompson
Baker, and J. M. Johnson, Democratic
nominee for Sheriff, visited a "raloonless
town" rally and gavo tho temperance
causo hearty Indorsement.
This move, the temperanco men assert
ed today, committed the Democratic dis
trict organization to the local option
movement. Republican leaders who have
carefully avoided taking any stand In
tho Pleasantville fight declare tho Demo
cratic move amounts to a sacrifice of f ho
county ticket In the hope of winning
antl-llquor support for Congressman
Baker.

of good luck was received at the head
quarters of the Brumbaugh Citizens'
Committee this morning from Charles
Oorsuch, of Maitlnsbtirg, Blair County,

Doctor Brumbaugh, stated In a letter ac
companying the gift that the horsesho
was hand-forged and that his thought In
sending It was that it would bring good
luck, good health and good cheer to the
Republican nomlneo for Governor.
William Walters Champion, of Wlll
iamsport, who, In 1913 with a. party of
Pennsylvanlans, visited Porto Rico to
study educational conditions there, has
written to the committee, telling of the
high esteem In which the natives there
hold Docto'r Brumbaugh for his work
among them as Education Commissioner.
The letter satds
"The natives were one and all most
enthusiastic In their praise of Doctor
Brumbaugh. Knowing him personally, as
did all our little party, we cam away
feeling that at least one American, and
that one a native of Pennsylvania, had
made good with these new-born Ameri
cans; ana that so long as education was
held In esteem, the public schools of
Porto Rico would be his lasting monu
ment with Us foundations deep-laid In
the hearts of 1,000,000 people."
