Governor Brumbaugh la characterized
as "an Ingrato" by Senator James P. Mo
Nlcho!, ns a man who takes advantago
ot his high ofTlce, attained through self
solicited support of Senator Penrose, to
attempt tho overthrow of tho leader
through whom his own elevation Is duo.
Senator McNIchol quotes tho Governor's
own words, uttered during tho guberna
torial campaign of two yenrs ago as sup
port of his charge that Doctor Brumbaugh
Is using his olllco as a club against tho
Instrument of his success.
Addressing the Republican organization
men of the 43d Ward last night. Senator
McNIchol said ho well remembered hear
ing the Governor say two years ago:
"If I hao not Penrose's support I will
not bo a candidate."
"I remember that," said McNIchol, "for
I heard- It, and what did the Governor do
when he got that support and the odlco?
He took It ns a club and tried to knock
Senator Penrose's head off. Men who do
that sort of thing don't get very far, be-
llevo me."
Sonator McNIchol addressed a throng
that filled Llcdertafol Hall, Cth street, be
low Erie avenue, to overflowing. Tho
Senator said aftemard that the meeting
convinced him that there was no danger
of Albert S. Henry being overthrown as
tho City Committeeman from that district
"TOYING TO MAKE EXCUSES."
Discussing Governor Brumbaugh, Sen
ator McNIchol referred to him as "that
dear, humble Governor who Is trying to
make excuses for things he has done."
"I don't want to talk about It," con
tinued Senator McNIchol. "I sympathize
with the man because lu was neer fitted
for the high position ho holds.
In discussing the general situation, Mc
NIchol had this to say: .
"I am sorry that It Is necessary today
to see in this city strife and contention
In the ranks of the Republican party.
Something has occurred; nobody has been
able to' explain that something which has
brought It all about. But I can tell you
from the knowledge that I possess that
there has been a coalition and combination
got together to attempt to blacken tho
name and Interfere with the effort of the
most stalwart and the most honorable
Republican leader of this State tho Hon
orable Boles Penrose.
"PENROSE HAS BRAINS TO LEAD."
"I hao been In many battles with him
and havo stood by his side. He has al
ways been fearless. I have also been
alongside the men who are attempting to
malign Senator Penrose now. AVhen the
smoke of battle was thick and tho politi
cal cannon roared they were nowhere to
be found, but often In the light of morn
ing we saw them In the camp of the
enemy. Penrose has noti only the cour
age, but also tho brains to lead properly.
Thank the Lord I have. alv. ays had sensa
enough In matters where statesmanship
was required to look up to ono man who
possessed the qualities of a statesman
Senator Penrose.
"If these persons think they can drive
men out of the party and out of ofllce
after they have made sacrifices and
worked hard for the party good, they are
mistaken. Political coercion bv nm.

SENATOR PENROSE'S INDORSEMENTS
OF THE TAYLOR RAPID TRANSIT PLAN
''The forthcoming election Is an nll.3mportan step in establishing
much-needed and adequate rapid transit facilities in Philadelphia.
I shall Vpto for the proposed 80,000,000 increase In tho city's Indebted-.
"J" frthe beginning " the construction of tho Broad street subway and
of the Frankford elevated.
i. " mhf n lho construction df tho initial lines is 6nce well under way, the
c '? wm J2? committed in a practical manner to tho completion of a system
which will properly serve the necessities of the city in. Its entirety."
t rom statement issued April Si, 1015,
"Tho Tnylor pfyn was worked out with the greatest care and skill on
broad lines to serve the entire city, and to connect all important points
HVhtyJy direct high-speed service. It was given wide publicity.
After the Taylor plan was published in a most full, understandable
and frank way, It was studied for months by vlrtunlly all of tho
ousincss mens associations nnu labor Unions and other similar bodies
in tho city of Philadelphia. Mr. Taylor was called before some ono of
these associations vlrtunlly every night in the week to explain and debate
details during several months.
"Then tho Taylor plans were approved and indorsed by nil of theso
organizations throughout tho city, and the people were asked to vote a
loah of $0,000,000 to carry out tho Taylor plans which they all understood
to constitute tho city's plan for subway nnd elevated construction. At
the election the vote was overwhelmingly in favor of tho carrying out of
tho Taylor plan for transit development, and it would bo a breach of
faith with the pcoplo of Philadelphia if their official servants wcro to
substantially alter the plans which tho people have approved, in a manner
to curtail their sphere of usefulness.
"I reaffirm my unqualified indorsement of tho Taylor plans for transit
development." From statement issued March G, 1D1G.
"There will be absolutely no division of opinion among ward organi-
vital necessity thnt tho Taylor lines us planned be constructed to enrry
pcoplo to all parts of the city quickly for one fare." Statement issued
March 7, 1010.
" Put through the 'Taylor plan' in its entirety In order that
every section of the city may be properly cared for without discrimination.
Unless tho people are thus fully informed and protected in voting for the
loan bill, that bill will bo in Bcrious jeopnrdy.
"Tho people are going to demand and protect their rights in this
matter, and I shall stand by them." Second statement issued March
7,'IOIG. i
"I have nothing further to say on this subject at this time. I shall
probably have a statement tomorrow." statement issued this afternoon,

"I do not know what It Is that has hap

Tho final stntoment from Mr Tnylor,
mado public today, follows In part:
Here Is a meisage to every votor who
lives In the northwest section of Phila
delphia between 20th street and the
Schuylkill River nnd between Callowhlll
street and the lino of Wissahlckon ave
nue: You at last have gained for yourselves
ino rignt to voto ror a nigh-spced elevated
and subway line from Roxborough via
Honry street and North 29th street and
tho Parkway to a connection with the
Broad street subway and delivery loop
at City Hall, station.
You have also gained the right to voto
for the construction of nil of the high
speed lines which havo ben designed to
connect up every Important section of
Philadelphia with every other Important
section of Philadelphia for ono G-cent fare
under tho "Taylor plan."
You havo also gained for yourselves the
power to eliminate the discriminatory and
Illegal exchange tickets, for which those
passengers traveling Into, within and out
of your district pay a penalty of more
than $208,000 every year.
You can by passing tho transit nnd port
loan secure to yourselves and to your com
munity these advantages of Inestimable
value. '
ADVANTAGES OF LOAN.
I want you to know tho advantages
which you will secure to yourselves and to
your district by voting for the transit and
port loan cut.
That bill provides not only for the con
struction of your northwest high-speed
line, to vvhlch I have referred, but It pro
vides for tho construction of n Bread
street subway with delivery loop under
Locust, 8th and Arch streets and elevated
branches northeast and northwest from
Broad street
It also provides for the completion of
the Frankford elevated from Front nnd
Arch streets through Kensington nnd
Frankford to Rhawn street, nnd for tho
construction of a Woodland avenue ele
vated from 30th and Market Btreets to
Darby.
Tho Federal Government today won an
Important legal victory when Judge John
B. McPherson, of tho United States Cir
cuit Court of Appeals, Bitting An a dis
trict judge, refused to enjoin permanently
tho Interstnto Commerce Commission from
enforcing what the Lehigh Valley Rail
road Company regardede ns nn order re
quiring It to give up Its Interests In) the
Lehigh Valley Transportation Company.
Tho latter corporation is tho water lino
of the railroad company. It operates on
tho Great Lakes between Buffalo nnd
Chlcngo, Tho rallrond company own all
of tho stock of tho Transportation Com
pany. Judge McPhcrson directs thnt tho suit
of tho railroad company' for n permanent
Injunction be dismissed This decision
hns tho effect of dissolving a temporary
Injunction Issued by the court pending
final determination of tho Issues nt stake,
Tho suit of tho Lchtgh Valley Was tho
first test ot an order of tho commission
under the Panama Canal act, nnd tho de
cision of Judgo McPhorson Is likely to
servo ns a precedent In a numbor of other
similar cases which wero decided by the
commission nt the samo tlmo. Appeal to
tho United States Supremo Court Is ex
pected. Under the protection of tho temporary
Injunction the railroad company has been
operating its lako line since tho opening
of tho navigation season on tho Great
i Lakes on April 15 Confident thnt Its
suit would be maintained, tho railroad
company expended many thousands of
dollars putting Its lako lino In operating
condition for tho curcnt season, and un
less it la witling to pay dally penalties
ot $5000 for operating tho water route
In defltnco of tho present decision until
tho Supremo Court ot tho United States
has had an oportunlty to ndjudlcnto tho
questions, It will have to suspend opera
tions By the tlmo tho Supremo Court takes
up tho ense, In tho event of appeal, which
13 regarded as certain, tho navigation se.i
Bon for tho present year will havo ended
Tho order of tho commission was mado
under tho provision of tho Panama Canal
act, which prohibits railroads from having
nny Interest whatever In water routes,
with which 'they "may or do compete"
Tho Lehigh Valley Company mnlntnjned
thnt compotlion with Its lake lino wns
Imposlble, but rather than run tho risk
of paying $5000 dnlly lines, It applied to
tho Interstate Commerce Commission for
nn Inquiry whether thcr was competition
between tho two companies ,
Tho commission replied In tho affirma
tive. Tho railroad applied for an Injunc
tion contending that ns ltd rati lino ex
tended from New Jersoy to Buffalo, and
Its water line from Buffalo to Chicago,
there was no competition Tho govern
ment urged tho point that tho Lehigh
Company had a through rato with rail
roads with vvhlch It connected in Buffalo,
and thnt these relations brought It within
tho categorical definition of competition
with Its lako lino.
