The strongest indictment of the can- j

most Important document to establish '
Ills connection with the liquor combine

To Our Stockholders
In view of the 3trenuoua campaign being oarried on
by the Anti-Saloon League, kindred, organizations and their
followers, aiming to enact sumptuary legislation in our State,
and the effect 3uch legislation would have on the value of
browing investments, it is absolutely necessary, in order to
properly protect your interests, that you become active in
this campaign.
We therefore solicit your co-operation and influence
in behalf of the candidacies of the Hon. Boies Penrose for
United States Senator, and Messrs. Thomas S. Crago,
M. M. Garland, A. J. Logan and John R. K. Scott for Congrossmen-at-Large,
as well as for the local Congressional, State Sena
torial and State Legislative District candidates, as shown on
the folders enclosed herewith.
We have no hesitancy in endorsing all of these Candi
dates for the respective offices named, and believe that your
holdings will not suffer in any manner in the event of their
election, as they are broad-gauged, liberal-minded men, who can
be .depended upon to treat your interests fairly in all legisla
tive matters.
Respectfully yours,
INDEPENDENT BREWING COMPANY.

parents of school children.
It Is doubtful whether any of the books
will ever reach their Intended destination.
I'eeldents of Manheim any the local Camp
of Patriotic Orders of Sons of America
feel humiliated by their experience, and
the notion of Penrose in forcing his name
before the borough has dona mote harm

Senator Penrose's sland on the liquor
question Is well known by the people, as
well as the fact that liquor Interests are
backing his candidacy. Church people of
Manheim arc leading in the fight to keep
the Penrose Bibles out of the schools.
The Ministerial Association lias taken

will sond u protest to the Board of Edu

are also said to be circulating a petition
of protest.

The Pennsylvania Protective Union,

The officers of this association bow ap

Investigation which will be forced by
the Administration should Senator Pen

Representative A. Mitchell Palmer,
who appeared before the committee In
the preliminary hearing, produced let
ters similar to tho one published In mi
adjoining column, and charged that the
organization was formed to advance the
candidacy of Penrose and lo collect
funds to Insuie his election. No less
than three members of tho Senate Com
mittee on Privileges and Elections openly
stated that they believed the Penusyl
wiula Protective Union to have been or
ganized for political purposes, despite tho
denials made by IUchard Campion, the
treasurer, and Chester W. Hill, secretary.
For months before the primary election
the officers of the I'enruylruna Protec

solicited funds and walked for the acn
dictate. In nope of their literature does
