There are scores of republi- | cans in Centre county who will say the i 8 ame thing; it is an old story. But that | is not the issue, Mr. Daley had an op- portunity of stating over lus signature, through the colums of the Centre Demo- crat, to the voters of Centre county, just exactly where he stood on this issue, and the fact that “Kurtz lies” would not have prevented John [7 Daley from do- ing so. The Curtinf township statesman is trying to play fast and loose with the people. He always was considered sly, cunning and foxey, even if he for years allowed his hair to grow long and pose as a religious exhorter in his commani. ty. John [J Daley may travel Centre county and tell everybody that “Kurtz lies,” as long as he produces no facts, it matters little to us, The important thing for John [J Daley to do is to teli the people that he is a Quay candidate.

The better class of people in the district will oppose Arnold's re-election. So that his only support will come from the Quay politicians, his post office appointees and an indifferent element of his party, Arnold will be the worst licked candi. date on the ticket, Republicans in this section have aban. doned his campaign as useless, IN THE HOSPITAL. Frequent inquiries have been made as to when James K. P. Hall will be In Centre county, It is quite likely that Mr. Hall will be unable to reach Centre county during the campaign. Several weeks ago Mrs, Hall was ly taken ill while in New York state and her con. dition became so serious that she was taken to a hospital in New York city where au operstion was performed re. cently, Mrs. Hall's conditicn was so serious that her husband was unable to the doctrine that patriot sede partisanship, yet Tam a Democra example, | - | fundamental { ment, | | sedition acts | the { by an executive order, to banish pe ople | tion act attacked the | by writing or printing. { ed States or his officers was a crime | | the courts of Centre county | better {this fall | and correct in | tent leave and hence has been unable to give personal direction to the campaign, DEMOCRATIC DUTY. “We ask that you go to the polls next November and do your duty as citizens, See that every Demozratic voter be | brought out, and that he be instructed as | to the real issues, I have no ight to think for you to think for me. any more than you have All that I can do is to Use est judgment, and as men, Democrats or Re- as set before you the truth, your hon.

But he is astoundingly peanutty in the treatment of the situation. The little two cent mat. ters he is constantly harping on, They are his sole stock in trade. The larger matters he ignores, undoubtedly because he has as yet failed to comprehend them. IS HE HONEST. Wm. A. Stone charged the state $10,000 for collecting a £3,000 claim. Yet the re. publicay papers say he is an honest man, JENKS AND PENSIONERS, We do not suppose Mr. Geo, A. Jenks ever defended pension abuses, and he was alwavs willing to give the veterans their just dues and defend them from un. just aspersions, This was illustrated when Mr. Jenks was a member of the act and vote on pension questions.

It will be a serious mistake for any true Democrat to vote for Swallow. Candidate Jenks is absolutely honest and was never credited with bearing false testimony like Dr, Swallow, He has the ability and experience in public affairs to fill the position of Governor iu a cred. itable manner, On the other hand Dr. Swallow is only a sensational preacher, unreliable and uatrathful who was con- victed in the courts of libeling public men.
