Senater
LEGION IS OPPOSING HIM
,. i .-
Flew of Machine Meney Great
est Since Quay's Fight
25 Years Age
Dy GEORGE NOX McCAIN
Tonight will bring te a close the bit
femt contest within the Republican
Party in Pennsylvania in twenty-five
jure.
It has become a subject of national
Interest.
As a reflection of party feeling it is
dearly the city against the country.
' As between Attorney General Geerge
B Alter, the contractor Organization
tandidntf, and Glfferd Pinchot, inde
pendent and unbessed,' the country dis
tricts arc unquestionably for Pinchot.
Except at combine headquarters,
where estimates of victory are con cen
fidents made, sober-minded politicians
confidentially confess te a decidedly un
certain outlook.
The Organization for the first time in
a generation is genuinely alarmed. It
lacks confident and competent leader
ship. Philadelphia as usual takes the lime
light in the center of the stage as the
most conspicuous factor In the situ
ation. Frem all sections of the Stale I have
heard the inquiry. "What's Philadel
phia going te de?"
Director W. W. Reper, of the Pin
chot City Committee, asserts that At
torney General Alter will be one of the
luckiest of men in the world If Sennter
Varc's branch of the contractors' alli
ance can hand him a Philadelphia ma
jority of 00.000.
Senater D. Edward Leng, chairman
of the Pinchot State Committee, de-
elares that Ms candidate wilL'cemc' te
Philadelphia "with a majority of L'Oj.OOO.
Making due allowance for the usual
headquarters enthusiasm in both these
estimates, there is enough mnrgiii left
te give the contractors some very un
pleasant hours before the llnnl result is
announced, no matter what it muy be.
Primarily the campaign lins been dis
tinguished for three things: The un
usual self-assertion of the woman leader
and voter, the injection of the United
Ktitcs senatershlp Inte the turmoil und
the lavish use of money by the contrac
tor organization.
Net Contractors' Meney
It Isn't the contractors' money
they're spending, though.
In this latter respect nothing like It
has been known since Senater Quay
staged his fights and spent his hun
dreds of thousands against the inde
pendent forces twenty -five years age.
The contest for the United States
senaterslilp between Senater Geerge W.
Pepper, of Philadelphia, and Congress
man William J. Burke, of Pittsburgh,
presents an entirely different aspect.
Mr, lturkn has mndc a. direct appeal
te class prejudice. There are these of
the opinion that he is mere of a Sb
clalist than a Republican.
Mr. Pepper, who was appointed te
fill the unexpired term of the late Sen Sen
aeor Heles Penrose, has the' indorse inderse
ment net only of the regular .Repub
lican organization, but the vnrieus In
dependent organizations are giving him
their support.
William J. Burke has the backing of
the union labor vote and Is also in
dorsed by the American Legien.
The Allegheny County Republican
organization has been partially dls
runted as a result of his fight. Part
of it Is opposing Pepper teeth ajid nnll.
There are two reasons for this con
dition in the sonatershlp issue:
First, the personal popularity of Con
gressman Burke, who hns been for jears
a labor leader; second, the untagenisni
of the American Legien te Sennter Pep
per en account of his attitude en the
soldiers' bonus.
i uTh(L ln,onse interest which organized
labor has been taking in the Burku seno sene seno
erlal tight Is shown in the fact thnt
Inlrty-threc experienced labor orgon ergon orgen
ers, sent Inte the State by Samuel
empers ami his Washington organlza erganlza organlza

mining and Industrial centers.

Pepper Danger Spots
iJC'j'i j1'0","" danger spots must be
looked for in Industrial centers. Pitts
burgh is the greatest, and here Burke
has been touted te pull, off something.

HANG JOHNSON PICTURES
Space for Only 400 of 1400 arid Ad
dition May Be Built
The wer kef removing the $4,000,000
Jehnsen art collection from the storage
house te the Jehnsen home, 510 Seuth
Bread street, was started today under
thct direction of Harrison Bell, curator
of the collection, and Harry T. Baxter,
chief of the Bureau of City Property.
There nre 1400 pictures In the col
lection, but It is said it will be Impos
sible te hung all of the pictures in the
Jehnsen house because of Insufficient
space. It Is estimated that the build
ing Is large enough te permit the hang
ing of nt least 400. It will be necessary
te build an addition te the home If all
are te be hung.
The decision te hang the pictures was
an answer te litigation started by Maur
ice B. Saul, formerly law partner of
Mr. Johnien in the Orphans' Court,
asking that the city be forced te carry
out the previsions of the Jehnsen will.

Jersey City's "Agate" Star
Takes Haughty Stand With

"HOME GROUNDS OR NONE"
Verily, here is prlde!
Jersey City's marble-sheeting chump,
self-styled "marble-sheeting champion
of the world," has refused te partlci

that he, as champion, is cnUtlcd te ploy

and Incidentally director of the Jersey
City Department of Parks nnd Public
Property : ...
, "Being champion of the world, there
is no reason why I should Journey te
Philadelphia te meet only a local celeb
rity, but I stand ready te meet all

This haughtv attitude is the natural
result of the Jersey City champ s re

marksman, the train of reasoning prob
ably being thnt Washington is the Na Na
teon's capital, and the Natien leads the
world in marble sheeting.

Bucharest. May lfi. Queen Marie of
Rumania may forego, her coronation this
fall in order te visit the United States.
Since the signing of the armistice the
Queen has been planning te go te the
United States, but pressing affairs In
her own country nnd the expenses of
the lone land nnd ocean Journey have
deterred her. New invitations from
friends nnd petitions from , women's
clubs aDd civic societies arc neurine in
en her se fast that she finds It difficult I
te resist them.
While the Queen has net received an
official Invitation from President Hard
ing, It is known the American Govern -UJent
would welcome nnd entertain her.
The Rumanian Government, however,
would prefer that the Queen- receive it
formal Invitation from the White Heuse
in order that there might be no mistake
concerning her status. Queen Marie
has net yet set any date for her de
pnrture, but her friends nre urging her
te postpone her coronation with King
