BUYING OF VOTES

Was Any
HARMONY IS TURNED DOWN
A denial wa made today by Senn
ter Vnrc that the election of Charle J.
Pnmmrr, te City Council from the First
district, wa purchased, as stated by
Hnrry and Jeseph Trainer, adm'nlstra adm'nlstra
tien lenders In Seuth Phl'ndclphla.
Senater Vare said: "There i net
the slightest truth in the statement of
these two welcher. the Trnlncm, from
Seuth Philadelphia, that the Pemmor
elccl'en was purchased. i
"If there wa any buiing done, It was
done hy the ether side, which seemed
te have p'entv of ImetVg money.
"The vote steed 2.".4n0 for Pemmer. '
and the regular Remib'lean organlr.a erganlr.a organlr.a
Hen ti Seuth Philadelphia: 10.000 for
Onl'nghcr en n Democratic ticket, nnd
((MM) rer Haliaceer en the Trainer
fuked Seutli Philadelphia party ticket.
"This shown thnt If nnllaghcr had
net gotten en the Democratic ticket II
'cgally, he would have had 10.000 votes
tots, and the vote would have then steed
K.400 for Pemmer and the regular or
ganization, and 7000 for the onpesitlon.
"In the neltrh0"hoed In which Pom Pem
mer was born nnd had lived nil his life,
namely, the First ward, he received
virtually n unanimous vete; whlle In
the neighborhood where Oallngher was
born and lived nearly all his life, Gal
lagher virtually received no votes at
all.
"The Trainers get scant help from
the women ; they well knew the reason
why."
"The thorough trouncing that our
opponents get they were fully entitled
te for bringing religion Inte the cam
paign." Moere leaders In the First district
have refused an invitation te make peace
with their opponents.
"Anether attempt te restore Vare
power by combining with the adminis
tration force." was the wnv Jeseph
Trainer described the efforts of Chair
man Watsen, of the Republican city
committee, te restere harmony.
Trainer said the anti-Vnrc forces In
the Klvst disHt had suffered only a
temporary defeat, and Gallagher, the
administration candidate for the Coun
cil scat made vacant by the death of
William K. Flnlcy. had been beaten by
Pemmer only because many voters feared
te tnvii'ldatp their ballets by splitting
their tickets.
Vdmitiisfntien leaders leek upon the
imitation of Watsen te forget fnc fnc
tienal figlits as an effort coming directly
from the Vares te restore their waning
prestige bv forcing a combination with
the administration.
"The fight is ever," said Mr. Wat Wat
eon. "I only hope the Republicans will
be able te get along better hereafter In
this city. Ne personal grievance should
exist. We should unite. If we are nil
Republicans, c should nil work to
gether and net continually try te keep
apart.
"As chairman of the Republican city
committee it will be my mission te tuoke
this great Republican party the basis
for harmonious action all along the
line, which will make it successful for
years te come."
CHAMP CLARK DEFEATED
Fermer Speaker, After 25 Years In
Heuse, Beaten by Republican
St. Leuis, Nev. 4. Champ Clark, of
Rowling Green, Me., formerly speaker
of the Heuse of Representatives, te
which he has been elected mere times
than the average voter can remember,
has surrendered his pest of honor te
T. W. Hukcrcide, of Warrenton, Me.,
young Republican candidate in the
Ninth Missouri district. Mr. C'ark bus
served his district in the Heuse for
twenty -five years.
Pacing a handicap of 1000 votes, with
five-sixths of the precincts in his dls-
trict in 'colliding Democratic strong
holds Mr. Clark last night sent a
telegram te Hukereidc, congratulating
the Republican en his victory.
Twe hundred and twenty of the 208
precincts had given Hukereidc a vote
of 30.421 te Mr. Clark's 25,070 before
backers of the incumbent admitted he
had fought a losing battle. Even then
Mr. Clurk refused te talk te reporters.
He remained at home yesterday, con
fident of victory, while return from
Republican counties piled up leads for
his opponent.
Net until his friends came te him
with virtually complete returns nnd as
surances of defeat did the Clark house
hold believe he would be defeated.
MISSOURI G. 0. P. BY 100,000
Republicans Expect te Gain Eight
Seats In Congress
St. Leuis, Nev. 4. (Ry A. P.)
With the state Republican by mere than
100.000 en the contests for President,
senator nnd governor, the only election
questions in Minseurl today lay In the
congressional races and the fights for
miner state offices.
The closest light lay In Jacksen county
(Kansas City). Early returns gave
Representative Hland a big lead, but
finally Ellis, his Republican opponent,
went 2000 votes in the lead, only te
have Ltlund catch up and pass him by
seventy-five votes with three rural pre
cincts still te be heard from. The vote
early tedav steed :
R'and, 77.082; Ellis. 77.007.
With Champ Clark defeated by T. W.
Huckreldc. of Warrenton. Me.. Indica
tiens were that the R publicans would
gain eight members In the Heuse If pres
ent leads are retained. Ten Renub
licans seemed sure of election. Mis
souri's returns today lacked only a few
precincts in southern counties, some of
which had neither telephone, telegraph
nor railroad communication with the rest
of the statu.
378,890 PLURALITY IN OHIO
Later Returns Only Serve te In
crease Harding's Lead
Columbus, 0., Nev. 4. (Ry A. P.)
Later returns from Tuesday's election
served only te increase the large leads
given Senater Warren G. Harding and
the entire Republican state ticket. With
twenty-one of the state's twenty-two
congressmen already definitely Repub
lican, and the Democratic contestant
trailing In the Third district, the only
one in doubt, n solidly Republican con
gressional delegation seemed probable.
Frem 0900 of the state's 7145 pro pre
cincts Senater Harding had n lead ever
Governer Cox of 878.802. The vote :
Harding, l.lOOX'l; Cox, 727.432.
The vote for governor for OCOO pre
cincts was:
Harry L. Davis, Republican, 012,

COMES 12'000 MILES TO VOTE
FOR HARDING FOR PRESIDENT
Sen of Norristeivn Attorney Travels Heme Frem Australia te
Cast First Ballet iVett; Ready te Return
Frem Australia te Norrlstewn, Pa.,
te vote for Harding.
Rebert Stinson, twenty-one-year-old
son of C. Henry Stinson, holds the
record for distance covered and amount
of actual expense incurred te permit
the castiug of a vote for Harding and
Coelldgc.
Twenty-four thousand miles by
steamship and rail an outlay In excess
of $1000 forty days te cover half the
trip these nrc just a few of the items
concerning the first presidential vote
cast by the son of one of the best known
Montgomery county lawyers.
"And," said his father this morning,
"cheap nt that price, and well wertli it,
tee. Of course, we were mighty glad
te see the boy, but the vote was the
real thing. Mnbe Harding didn't really
need It but that doesn't figure in the
matter at all."
Yeung Stinson is a real chip off the
old block. Fer years there hasn't been
a campaign in which the father linsn't
figured, and he hasn't confined his ef
forts te being a mere voter, either he
has he'd office in Montgomery county
nt different times, nnd wns mentioned
in the filling of a judgeship some time

ABANDON NEWSBOYS' CLUB
St. Stephen's P. E. Church Forced
, te Give Up Project
Owing te inadequate housing facili
ties, officials of St. Stephen's Episcopal
Church have been compelled te abandon
the Newsboys' Ciub which they had
conducted In their community house for
mere than n year. Lack of money was
also ascribed as a secondary reason.
The classes were founded by the Rev.
Frederick Keeble, asslstunt rector Of the
church, in the hope that some prevision
could be made for tbe homeless news
boys of the city. Various games were
placed at their disposal and lunch at
cost was provided them.
A carpentry class was formed, but
the only place te conduct it was en the
stage of the auditorium. This was
found te be very difficult with a boys'
brigade company drilling en the fleer
below. It was also found te be difficult
te conduct classes consisting of elder
and younger boys and preserve amicable
relations.
Se, despite the geed accomplished,
Dr. Keeble said it was necessary te
abandon the project and the 180 boys
of the club will hnve te sleep In the
streets, as heretofore until somebody
can find a way te provide for them.

Death Knell
SWEEP IS STATE-WIDE
By GEORGE NOX McCAIN
Speak softly 1 Tread lightly I geed
people. Hereafter In earnest debate nnd
cucual discussion It will be referred te
as "the defunct Democratic party."
The worst enemv of Wllsenlsm In
Pennsylvania in his wildest hopes of
political retribution never dreamed thai
the popular rercntment among his own
party against Woodrew Wilsen was ns
deep, bitter and inplacable as the elec
tion figures, in their finality, Indicate
teuay.
The result in Pennsylvania can be
described only by the word "astound
ing." Nothing In the pe'itlcal history of any
party has ever equaled It. A great
political party in a great state piac
tlcally wiped out, se far ns popular rep
resentation gees, in one day.
One Democrat In Congress
As it new leeks tiierc will he but
one Democrat in Congress from. Pcnn
bylvanla. Campbell of Allegheny. And
he is only a hnlf-bnkcd Democrat, His
party affiliations nrc wobbly and un
certain, because ha could net have wen
had be net carried the Republican in in
eorsement. The finest evidence of the unpopu
larity of Mr. Wilsen, his policy and
his personal advisers, is te be found
right here in Pennsylvania.
There are two counties that comprise
ene congressional district, the Thir
teenth, Berks and Lehigh. And the
number of the district was certain y
pc-tcntnus in this instance Its de
tection rnng the curtcw ever the Inst
fortress of Democracy in this state.
Lehigh county had gene Republican
times before. Berks county has prided
itself en its stubborn adherence te
Democratic principles. Republicans
have been ns hopelessly outclassed In
Berks county as were anftf their breth
ren in Alabama or Mississippi.
New and then a Republican would
sip Inte n county office. But it was
net because he wus n Republican, but
rather that he was, in the vernacular,
"a goet fcllar nlretty."
Links of Chain Will Break
One of the Republican jibes Hung at
them for a generation has been that the
Democrats of Berks still thought thej
were voting 'for Andy Jacksen for
President.
But last Tuesday saw the tradition
and practices of n century wiped out
Net that the chains of Democracy that
have bound old Berks in its stubborn
adherence te a single party have broken
completely, but the links linve been
worn se thin that some time in the near
future they will snap.
Fer the first time in its history it
will be represented by n Republican, in
Cengrcs. This would have been impos
sible had net Republican inroads been
be great that it uas impossible te coun
teract the Republican uprising in Le
high. I wonder what Arthur G. Dewa't
thinks of the result? His treatment by
hi own party leaders, the kicks and
cuffs that he has taken in the past, have
been avenged. Dewnlt Is about the
finest type of a Democrat that the Thir
teenth district has produced In vears.
If there Is net, there should be crepe
en the der of Charles B. Spatz' Reiki
County Democrat. But even Charlie
Spat?, has his rcvenj- new for the fail
ure of the Democratic Icadeia te recog
nize his lifelong party loyalty when he
nsked a cenjrcssl mal scat and was de
nied It at their hands.
Attorney General Pnlmcr has meta
phorically been chucked into the dis
card, with his dHiitv had'v mussed
There is a suspicion, though, that
Palmer's feelings arc net as badly
hurt as his disheveled condition would
indlcnte. Perhaps .he is about as well
satisfied, secretly, that hi congren cengren congren
siennl district did go Republican.
Yet nobody fancied that lie would
lese it. As the titular head of the new
Democracy in Pennsylvania, it wns
supposed that he would carry his dis
trict as n matter of pride, separate and
apart from his stubborn refusal te get
mt and take u trick at helping Cox.
Mine's Repudiate Wllscn
Tim unthmcltc rczien has been re
deemed. McLnne nnd Casey have been
relegated te private life by the miueis'
votes. Their ( eteut is nneuicr con-
1 splcueus instnnce ej failure te buy
the labor vote with me sep ei prom prem
ises. Wllsenlsm has been jockeying with
thu miners for years. It had the ad
vantage of a secretary of labor who
was a miner and came from the upper
anthracite region. Every circumstance
pointed te Mr. Wilsen's success In deal
ing with thin section ei the Industrial
army. But he failed. He has his re
ward nt the miners bunds.
Equally unusunl is the defeat of
Jehn V. Leshcr in the Sixteenth district,
comprising Northumberland. Menteur,
Columbia nnd Sullivan counties. Co
lumbia county, which i vi'tunl'y sec
n ' te Berks in its Democracy, fell
down Ignomlnleuslv in Its effort te do de

Wllsenlsm in the most emphatic way.
It is another star that, If net geno,
Is going glimmering in the Democratic
sky.
In the Westmoreland -Butler dis
trict the election of a Republican In
place of Jehn II. Wilsen, Democrat,
was te have been expected.
When Congressman Edward B. Rob Reb
bins died early last year, J. II. Wilsen
slipped in through npnthy and dis
sension en the pnrt of the Republi
cans. Coke Clisngcs Politics
Beth counties of this, the Twenty
second Congressional district, are nor
mally Republican. Yet within a gen
eration Wcstmore'end was ncclalmcd
"The Democratic Star of the West."
It was te western Pcnnsy'vanla. what
Berk county has been te the East. But
the development of the coke Industry,
the influx of tens of thousands of miners
nnd even workers, swept Westmoreland
from its tradlt'enal moorings.
The coke industry demanded projec
tion. The Democratic party would net
afford it that relief. Then it (hanged
it political complexion permanently ns
a matter of industrial self-protection.
Wnllu the change In the legislative
representation at Harrlsburg arc signifi
cant they arc net important. Beth
Heuse nnd Senate have been largely Re
publican. A few mere members nddel
te the Republican roll de net add te
e needed mnjeiity.
The Democrats cannot be in much
werse plight in the next Legislature
than they have been in the past.
