There is an old saying that two witness from a dog fight cant agree in their
testimony, it certainly is true of the republican editors in giving
of the convention last week.
BELLEFONTE REPUBLICAN SAID
“Not in many years, if ever, was a
Centre County Republican convention
so conspicuously, so lamentably defi-
cient in those qualities which denote
the presence of gentlemen in conference
assembled as was that of Tuesday's.
Embittered by the sting of defeat, an-
gered by the success of a superior force
and impelled to a display of rowdyism
peculiar to the usual delegation to coun-
ty conventions from that section of the
county they so brilliantly represented,
the coterie of machine puppets from the
hot bed of Quayism in Centre County
plunged the convention into a state of
disorder and pandemonium that not
only forced an adjournment before the
work of the convention bad been com-
pleted, but brought discredit upon those
who were in no wise associated with the
intemperate faction whose conduct was
a disgrace to the community and the
citizens they represented.’
