J' uff in " '0 I n L "Shfpworkers Shout "You Will Bo Anothor Smith" at Organi zation Candidate TWO SPEAKERS ROUTED Judge Tattcrson was heckled today when addressing a crovd of workmen at Hog Island, whose crossfire of ques tions made two Patterson speakers close , abruptly. "3Tou will be anpther Smith," was one accusation shouted at the Judge from the crowd. The organization can didate did not lose his smile, however, nnd stuck to the platform, answering as many questions as he could. "Why Is there no labor man on your ticket?" one worker called to the judge. "I bad nothing to do with the ma't up of the ticket," the candidate re plied. "How would you make a good Mayor when Ed Vare brought you your com mission?" asked another. In reply the judge pointed 1o his record since his elevation to the bench. Railroad Worker a Supporter At that point n shifting train lnndcd with railway workers passed. "Judge, tho railroad men are nil with you," shouted one man on the train. "Jes, but how about the garbage case?" came the cry from another party of the crowd massed before the juUgc. The reference was to the tax payer's suit brought by Simon Yellin. The judge answered be did not sit in that case. Finally the crowd obeyed n request that tho judge be given a chance to speak. The candidate asserted In be lief In a living wage for labor and said he was in favor of collective bar gaining. Higher Taj for Patrolmen He pledged he would obtain higher pay for police and firemen nnd would Improve their working conditions Two speakers, who were forced to quit bv the crowd, had preceded the candidate. One. John A. Tobin. of the CKLE PATTERSON IN HOG IS AND YARD Blacksmiths' Union, wns attorning i marks, ami if the spaces, oi wuicn ue Congressman Moore's lnbor record when I made n record, were used for rcgis some one called : it ration purposes the registrars did so "What did the Vares ever do? What(nt their peril. about the Fifth ward case? Tobin tried to continue, but the yells and questions became too numerous and he yielded the platform to Major Vincent A. Carroll, formerly of the Seventy -ninth Division. Attack nn Moore Ends Major Carroll had no better luck when he attacked the Independent candidate's war record. Tho tumult became so great that he. too, desisted and Judge Patterson stepped forward. The organization candidate's chief address was made by Way No. HO. Afterward bis automobile brought him to the wet basin where 5000 workers were gathered. The whistle had blown, summoning the employes back to their tasks, but Judge Patterson spoke for n minute. He was cheered by some nnd 'a number shook his hand. Who Are 32,000 Lost Democrats? the same result Perhaps the Demo cratic party In Philadelphia has decided to make one last stupendous effort to rehabilitate itself in the eyes of its fel low Pennsylvania Democrats by voting for honest government. Several weeks ago I told of a scheme that was on foot to throw the strength of the Vare organization to the support of Judge Eugene C. Honniivcll as against Judge Joseph I. McCullen. In . return the Bonniwell wing of the Dem ocratic party was to give its support to Judge PatterBon. Do the figures I have given above in dicate that the alliance is still in ex istence so far ns the. Itonniivcil Demo crats are concerned? Of course, the Vare strength cannot now be given to Judge Bonniwell. The fiat of Governor Sproul has gone forth. The Veie organization dare not Bupport Judge -Bonniwell as against Judge Mc Cullen, unless, of course, they court a break with Governor Sproul. In, the midst of the rumors, reported deals and suggested chicanery, where does Charles P. Donnelly stand? He is the titular head of the Demo cratic party. It is permissible to say that this astute leader of a forlorn hope in former years had a very kindly feel ing for the late Senator James P. Mc ftichol. I fancy that his kindred likes still hold good with Senator McN'ichol's faction of the party, though he is ab sent, I am of the opinion that the line of cleavage in the Democratic ranks is so pronounced that the strength of the Donnelly -wing, In case it were clearly proved that Judge Bonniwell and his friends were turning in for the Vares. would unhesitatingly go toward neutral izing such a condition. But like Bo Peep's sheep or the tost. Legion of the Argonne forest I believe the lost Democrats will finally come strayiDg back, and into the anti contractor camp on primary day. . There is no doubt whatever that hundreds of citizens entitled to register were deliberately cheated out of their rights on the registration days. Much of this was due to the deliberate efforts of assessors. In other instances the registrars were to blame. In either rase-. the Board of Registration Com missioners owe it to themselves to penalize to the limit the crooks who were responsible for this crime. Commissioners Responsible The Board of Commissioners hold themselves responsible for their ap jHjintments of registrars. The most lib eral interpretation of the law cannot excuse, certain cases that have come vmdet their observation. ; Ifl the Fourteenth ward tho case of ";tte registrars in one division who sur ' rendered their books between regis t ra r, iiev days into the hands of an oflice V'f kplder, in whose possession the board's - inspectors found them, Is a specific in ' jjrtaoce. -The present week, not excluding the earlier days given over to. the oximi- 'natfon and appointment of registrars, will be the busiest period for the new registration board.

Electors Still Have Chance to Register Voters who failed to register on any of the three registration days still have a chance to qualify for the mayoralty primaries. Tho board of registration com missioners will sit In City Hall, Wednesday, September 10, and Thursday, September 11, from t) a. in. until noon and from 1 p. lii. to 1 p. m. Citizens who were not entered on the registration lists can appear In person before the commission on those two days and be registered. This opportunity Is provided in nn amendment, to the registration law, adopted at the last session of the Legislature. independent leaders call on every elector to register as a Itepubllcan. schemes and their nuthbrs will bo com paratively easy. The books of regis trars will furnish the clue. Rapid and efficient detective work will uncover the fraud. Wherever n suspicious number of men are registered from one nd dress the "Plying Squadron" nnd other inspectors acting for tho board will, by it survey of the premises nnd cross examination of the owner or lessee, discover the repeaters and colonizers. Their names will be stricken from the rrglstry. Sees Quirk Fraud Action As for deliberate fraud the district attorney, 1 understand, will have all evidence in hand for. quick action. The now famous "Flying Squadron" blocked a clever scheme Saturday to pad the registration books. It wns not only cleverly designed, but it had the merit of being a new device in election fraud. In certain districts, the board was informed, the registrars made it a point to lenve two or three lines vacant at the bottom of each page of the regis tration book. The purpose of this was to till in, or permit some one to till in. after hours the names and nddresses of dead or fictitious persons or colon izers. Saturday morning inspectors of the "Flying Squadron" in a dozen auto mobiles visited the suspected precincts. Wherever vacant spaces were found at the bottom of pages in the registration books'the inspector wrote his initials nnd the date on each line. He then notified the registrars that it was a crime to erase or mutilate nis POLICE STATION FOOD SALE Army Goods Offered Tomorrow at Twentieth and Federal Streets Municipal food sales in police sta tions will lie started tomorrow morn- '"K- . . 1 Emergency Aid volunteers and clerks from the (limbel Brothers' food store, lent to the city market commission by the store, will conduct the sale in the Twentieth nnd Federal streets sta tion.

A stir within the three-story brick house at 2000 South llroad street. which Senator Vare claimed as his "home" when he was challenged on registration day as to his right to vote in the Thirty-ninth ward. The sound resembled that of some person moving furniture about nn un carpctcd room. Suddenly one of the windows in the second story of the house, facing Broad street, is cautiously opened. From be neath the window-ledge nppears a hand. Comes another hand, and the two carefully, and with the least possible noise, lift the grimy-looking wiudow about two feet from the ledge. The hands are drawn back. Again they return, this time clutch ing a thirty-nlne-cent window-screen, unpnlnted. and with new green wire netting the kind thnt keeps the files off you In hot weather. A brief wait. Two more hands probably the same pair gently lift the opposite window of the house, nnd out comes another thirty-nine cent-screen, also unpainted and also of green wire netting. This done, the same hands, appar ently, bring forth n dusty rag and rub off the grime and dirt that have ac cumulated on the windows. Ml is now quiet. The hands are seen no more, 'there is no turtner evi dence of the presence of any one in the house. Why, the old chicken -coop wire has been taken away, nnd some one s clipped the grass a bit," was the comment of one stroller. And, sure enough, there was the old place, its sleepy look gone, new screens on the front windows of the second floor, nnd the old shutter that hung for n long time on one hinge, adjusted to its other hinge. The little porch had been dusted. Senator Vare insists he has been oc cupying the South Broad street house since last Monday. "Tonight, some time before 12," he said last night, " I shall enter the front door of L'OOO South Broad street. I shall do so with my own night key nnd attempt no surreptitious or mysterious entrance with which rumor, I believe, credits me. I have been doing this since last Monday. "Mrs. Vare will be there to welcome me. The lights will go up in the front windows of the second story, and when they go out, should there be watchers in the street, they may rest assured that I then am on my way to a good night's rest. "I bought the house at 2000 South Broad street three years' ago with the idea of establishing there a permanent borne. I still cherish that idea.

PEOPLE MUST RULE CITUAYSMOORE Independent Mayoralty Candi date Asserts Contractors Have Stranglehold on Party DISCUSSES COUNCIL FIGHT Whether the contractors shall rule the Itepubllcan party for their personal advantage or whether the Republican ! voters' shall determine who shall speak for them was made an Issue by Con cressman Moore. Independent randi date for Mayor, today In nn address to the candidates for all offices on the Independent ticket. It wns a get-together meeting held In the office of Congressman Moore at his campaign headquarters In the Lib erty Building. "It 'Is not n matter of your Individual advancement or mine." said Mr. Moore. "It is n matter of principle. The ques tion for the voters is not whether they like you or me or whether they dislike us. They are to determine whether the contractors, shall rule the Republican party for their personal advantnge or whether the Republican voters shall de termine who shnll speak for them. That's one question bigger than the prospects of individual candidates." "Hut a bigger question and the most important of nil is: hhall the c.ontrac- tors, through their stranglehold on th" Republican party, rule the city of Philadelphia or shall the people rule?" Oppose Contractor Domination "I'nder existing conditions the con tractors have been able to do prettj much as they pleased. They have main tained their power through contract profits secured from a friendly admin istration and by assessing officeholders nnd applying the proceeds to their pri vately controlled political organization. They have been able to make alliances with purchasable elements in other parties nnd nssocialions toward whose permanent support the ofiiceholdlng constituency hns been forced to con tribute. "This sort of contractor domination is what we are opposed to. We stand for a city free from contractor rule and for a Republican party that will be truly representative of the Republi can voters. "I'nder the new city charter, which the contractors opposed and which we proposed to enforce, the members of propose to enforce, the members of Council will play nn important part affairs. The people have been burdened with excessive taxes because of con tractor rule and the new Council will be expected to so prepare n budget as to give the people relief, or nt least pre vent further exactions. This fact should be emphasized during the rest- of the campaign, for upon the. new Coun- fcil much is going to depend. "The opposition is alert nnd striving by bickers nnd trades to secure a ma jority of the new councilmanic body. There should be no misunderstanding about our position.

Coles, based on an analysis of the registration fig ures. Mr. Kcndrlck, chairman of the Moore campaign committee, nnd Mr. Coles, chairman of the Town Meeting party, joined in n stntcment predicting a Moore victory -over Judirc Patterson. .Organization candidate. The registration during the three days this year, Mr. Kcndrlck pointed out, Is 113,917 greater than last year. He compared the registration with the vote polled for John R. K. Scott last year, when the Vare machine failed to nom inate Scott for lieutenant governor. The registration for the primary elec tion, September 10 Independent lead ers point out, represents 84 per cent of the total number of assessed voters here. The estimated total of registrants is 05-1.002. The total of assessed voters is 421,202. This year's registration, while 08, 4.16 greater than the registration for the memorable Varc-Karlc primary con test eight years ago, is only 4 per cent larger than the registration at that time upon the basis of the assessment. It was in that contest that the voters blocked Congressman Vare's ambition to be Mayor. As Independents checked up the reg istration figures for the coming primary, their optimism gnincd ndded strength. It was noted thnt In several of the river Users of PEA Coal be ad vised and buy now.
