IT A JOKE?
Editorial
ATTORNEY GENERAL ALTER declines te meet Gifferd
. Pinchot and debate the contractor issue.
Wouldn't that be a profound issue en which te deter
mine a governorship ?" he remarked, and added that
Pinchot has no sense of humor. But if Alter tHinks the
contractor issue is a joke he has no sense of the gravity of
the situation.
t rIf CL2ft?;ter Vare' of Philadelphia, and Contractor
Leslie, of Pittsburgh, were opposed te him he would have
no chance for the nomination. Even his ewrt friends are
saying that the-Vare and Leslie vote of Philadelphia and
f lttsburgh will be big enough te offset the vote for Pinchot
in the rest of the State.
Pinchot would have called Alter's attention te this
tact and would have challenged him te deny its significance
it Alter had been willing te meet him en the same platform.
Every one who has get out of the kindergarten in poli
tics knows that if Alter is nominated Vare and Leslie will
demand that he recognize them as his creator and insist
that hf de their bidding. Then we shall have a contractor
owned Governer.
And this is no joking matter.
Think this ever before voting next Tuesday!

Onrerner Sproul Issued the following
statement today ln defense et nls Ad Ad
ministrateon: '
"Whe f g net mr desire te engage
actively In the primary campaign for the
Republican nomination for the gover
norship, certain statements which have
been made would seem te require some
expression from me ln the way of cor
recting evident misunderstandings which
might result in false Impressions being
IcM In tbe minds of the people.
"Let It en clearly undersetoed, how
ever, thnt I have no complaints te make
of any criticism that has been made of
me or of my part in the State Admin
istration. Criticism is te be expected,
especially by the incumbent of an execu
tive position, nnd it is necessary in our
public life and politics. I am thoroughly
proud of the achievements of our State
Government; we have no apologies te
make and simply seek te set some things
right which have been Incorrectly repre
sented. Dodges Treasury Scandal Blame
"Fer some time past, much effort
has been made te turn, into political
capital the alleged mlx-un ln the ac
counting In the State Treasurer's office,
and the 'Administration' is blamed with
the conditions there, although the Gov Gov
ereor and the office appointed by him'
have no" authority or control ever the
'IVeasurcr.
"It must be remembered that the
State Treasurer Is elected by the people
nnd commissioned by them in just the
same way as Is the Governer himself,
and has his own constitutional rights,
powers and duties entirely Independent
of the Governer nnd of the Lieutenant
Governer, the Auditor General and the
Secretary of Internal Affairs, who are
likewise elected by nnd responsible te
the people directly.
"Criticism of the State Treasurer,
therefore, Is net an honest campaign
argument against the Attorney General
any mere thnn it Is against the Com
missioner of Forestry, or the Banking
Commissioner, or the Secretary of Ag
riculture, or any ether member of the
Governer's Cabinet.
"Where there are any derelictions,
however, in the Treasury or elsewhere
ln the State Government, where the
State's intciests or the rights of the
peeple nie involved, the Attorney Gen
eral, as the law officer of the Common
wealth, has a very definite duty te per
form, -and Mr. Alter has promptly and
effectively met the issue by appointing
n skilled lawyer and busines man, of an
opposite political faith, ill) elutclv- dis
associated with aunir- n' llurrlsburg,
te act iu the matter ami s.-e thnt fun
justice is done.
"Thnt crenn ln our politics which has
I consistently nnd persistently opposed In-
creased iii)iireiriiiutuis wr ine scuoeis,
better salaries and higher uualiflcatlens
for teachers, better care for the unfor
tunate and has bitterly fought the com
pensation laws, the regulation of wom wem
nn's working hours and child labor, but
which Is new strangely and nwkwardly
aligned for factional advantage with the
enmpnign of our late chief Ferester, is
accusing us of extravagance. .
Denies Funds Were Wasted
"On the ether hand, the chief For

extravagance because the appropriation
for his department hns doubled. As n
mutter of fact, neither the chief For Fer
ester nor the rest of the Administration

"It has net been wasted, nnd the
