Last week we | had two little advertisements in that column for the sale of two horses and as a result there was scarcely an hour in the day when the telephone was not ringing, or persons calling personally to answer the advertisements, while every other letter in our mail was an inquiry No less than a hundred answers came in this way, and it convinces us more than ever of the wide circulation of this paper and the value of the *'Penny-a-Word" column, where any subscriber may in- | sert an avertisement of not more than 25 | words one time Furs We urge our patrons to make use of this depart ment as often as they have anything to | buy or sell, Every week there is som«- thing new in the column, Persons hav. | ing horses, cattle or live stock to sell, or | want to purchase, will find this depart. ment of service to them Don't hesitate, but | advertisement send in your Tue Pennsylvania Railroad has put a | stop to the hazing of bridal parties at| | its Wilmington station, It is a childish practice, whether by rice, old shoes, or other interference with a bridal party, devoid of sense, and frequently connect. ed with indecency and insult, HARRISBURG LETTER, | Special Corespondence: | There are indications of a quarrel | among the capital grafters and if that | expectation is fulfilled, the rest will be easy. ‘‘When rogues fall out honest men come by their own," is proverbial, and the moment that Architect Huston undertook to shift the blame upon Gov- ernor Pennypacker, close observers be- | gan looking for the finish. There is | some plausibility in Huston's observation; Pennypacker did havea lot to say in the | Board of Public Buildings and Grounds and the alacrity and enthusiasm with which he served the machine on every occasion has prepared the public mind to accept such a solution of the problem, But Superintendent of Public Buildings | out with a | and Grounds Shumaker is statement that Huston is the real culprit, | { It was the architect, Mr, Shumaker de- | clares, who ‘made a monkey of the old | man," Pennypacker isa curious mixture of weakness and intriguing force. With the ambition of Caesar he has the van- ity, if not the mental infirmities, of an imbecile. As Governor he imagined that he was above the law. When the constitution interfered with any of his purposes he simply brushed the constitu tion away. An act of assembly was of no consequence to him if itran counter to desires Yet he maintained always an appearance of the greatest respect f the law and He actually made intelligent people believe that he was the most tive the State | nis ior MOTrais, lawabiding h r had anc had ev 1 thy least infraction of the mon honesty would As tter of fact he was an better he knew the differen He she _ : 10 Lei! aii be kn nobody know certainly knows ‘ the first ng and He about looting what that implies alot ! i MW ADC as sell-pre vation is f uaat ' “a was awarded ar had been there award To 1 statement Harris rejoins that Stone ned art icin : an : pa icipated clares he been DO Treasurer Was present in the award prove the fact without much trouble, It is estimated that Cas. sell got more than million dollars for those cases more than they were worth and this little difference of opinion be tween Stone and Harris may help to develop the facts Meantime the probing goes on with increasingly startling result. For the first time Huston and Sanderson were brought together during the session of last Wedaesday. A Mr. Hamilton of Washington testified that after he had been dickering with Huston for some time they came Lo an agreemsnt in the main but Huston added that '‘he had better go to see Sanderson” who him that he “didn’t want him to t any one else.” Another interesting wit. the week was a man named De Kosenko, president of the Stirling Bronze company of Philadelphia. Some time ago he had published a statement in one of the Philadelphia newspapers which was damaging to the conspirators and | the feature of his testimony was an at tempt to contradict himself without be ing caught, In this he failed, of course, for the newspaper representative who obtained the interview, followed him in the witness stand, gave the substance of | his conversation and proved that in the preliminary work “Sanderson, Huston and DeKosenko were altogether in the matter Together these witnesses have proved collusion and conspiracy beyond the shadow of a doubt would have W | and de- can told wd to ness of MACHINE NOT CONVERTED, That the machine is neither contrite nor | improved in morals has been revealed in the legislature of last week. The bill of | Senator Mcllhenny of Philadelphia, the | purpose of which was to make the voters | assistanceclause of the present ballot law | a helpful expedient rather than an agen. cy for bribing voters, was defeated at | the instance of Senator McNichol, Noo |body would obec to assistance to a | man who is physically incapable of marking his ballot and the Mcllhenny bill required that that condition be sv orn | to in order to obtain assistance. From | the beginning, however, the plan has | been employed by the bribers of voters | and the machine made a desperate re. sistance to any change, The proposition to allow the people to | vote on the question of a choice for Unit. lod States Senator is being fought with t hangs by the same element, It s universally agreed that the of such a measure would eliminate Penrose election for that office and his friends are very anxious. The experiment has been tried in several Western States and with considerable satisfaction. But it is not popular with the Penrose machine though 1 can't understand why they oppose it. With the facilities for Dribing voters unimpaired and the corporations | including the Standard Oil company for | the present Senator, he could certainly get a test vote in his favor if half the | electors had to be paid for such a result, | The Nesbit bill provides for the elec-| tion, next November, of delegates to a | constitutional convention by a practically | unanimous. vote, It would be difficult | to conceive a more dangerous measure | In the present of the corporate mind it 18 a safe guess that the majority frame of delegates Thosen to a constitutional convention would be ready to do about anything that the corporations want and | a constitution framed now would not only strengthen the seventeenth article of the | present instrument but would probably | eliminate it. If the Legislature wants constitutional reforms there is a better way to proceed than by calling a consti tutional convention, The enactment of legislation t the seventeenth article of constitution will afford ample restraints for railroads and trusts and Blakeslee Dunsmore railroad prevent the watering 1s needed In a tio try o enforce the present amendment to the ommissien bill to y toc ke te all +} OL SLOCKS 18 all that } finally, th rate bill has ef ating the ale t bran ana n K . $:80.00 to State Col lege to complete the agricaltural build ng and to defi al Kwheat Appropriating pay encic in nt nee ance with three hooks, of RING POWDER bo 4 | Makes the finest, light- est, best flavored biscuit, hot-breads, cake and pastr tood .
