Mate-wide ticket, so far as the larger

settled. The congressman-nt-large mid j

in danger of fracture.

the slate lenders pretty well "buffaloed"
over threats of reprisal if lie doesn't get

Then Joseph Mcl.aughlin, of Phila

thing of Hie kind, and it is understood
that Senator Penrose is behind his
claim.
Anderson II. Walters Is a pronounced
"dr" and Hie owner of one of Hie most
ririle daily newspapers west of the Al

posed to represent the labor clement,
and there you are.
With six tinmen to go on tlie ballot
and only four to be elected, it looks very
decidedly as If Messrs. Slientz and Crago
would hnvc to tnke the parachute drop.
Puzzle In State's Center
Coming over to tlie center of Hie
late, there is another puzzle presented
fr solution. President Judge George.
Kunkel, of Dauphin county, is out for
Supreme Court against tlie slated can
didate. Judge Sylvester II. Sadler, of
(timberland county. The Dauphin
niunty Itppiiblicnn .organization Is back
ing Kunkel, and that puts Lieutenant
loveruor neidclmuu, who is u recep
tive candidate for trie governorship
next time, in the attitude of trying to
lick the slate, for lie Is supporting Judge
Kunkel. He could do not much else,
jeeing Hint he and tho judge are old
friends and neighbors.
Kunkel Is putting up what appears to
he n good fight. He has his scouts out
oer the state setting up delegates, or.
at least, going through 'the motions of
doing so. in other counties.
(( Already the Kunkel people, like your
'Uncle Dave" Lane, are claiming
everything In central Pennsylvania, ami,
to think, Judge Sadler Uvea right next
door to Judge Kunkel that Is iu the
adjoining county of Cumberland.
Hut while Judge Kennel is "clearly
within his statutory rights and preroga
tives "I think that is the legal phaso
nlogly in trying to knock splinters of
im- .-miner uoom, l am Inclined to tlie
"Pinion that ho will be given a hurried
