The thieves cuted through the divulging that sulted from the election of a demo. cratic Treasurer, Mr. Berry & number of the looters were clearly found guilty not has yet been punished. The entire republican par- ty machinery has been used to pave the culprits from getting into the peni. tentiary and thus encourage a repeti- tion of the rascalities that were hav. Ing unhindered sway, that thereby the republican machine may thrive and live off of the stolen millions An Important state election will soon be held the coming November. The nominees of the Quay-Penrose ma- chine are over-head and ears In with the gangsters and their election means & perpetuation of gangster practices such as have enriched a coterie of the leaders whose only doings have been loot, loot, loot,—as is patent to every reader of the Centre Democrat nm well to every taxpayer In the state. Those who desire a continuation of this condition of affairs will vote for Bisson and Stober, who, In the senate and house, voted for every corrupt measure Introduced. The democratic nominees, Munson, Clark and Kipp are before the public with clean hands and records, The voters of Centre county should bear these facts In mind. The tarm- ers of these vallles, and the laboring men have suffered by gangster rule, Democrats have a sacred duty to per- form. Get to the polls—get out every vote, and Centre county will be In the column of honesty and clean govern- ment at Harrisburg. If every Demo- erat does his duty the verdict will be strongly In favor of crushing out gangster rule which has even disgust ed hundreds of honest republicans, Citizens, voters, do your duty at the polls In November, n republican of the denial { elect. will prevail In the creatures any wis twenty eo were prose- re. one You are expected to | Although | POOR ENDORSEMENT From Philadelphia Roosters Who Are Too Well Known, There has been sent to the lawyers of the state, a circular letter signed bj! fourteen lawyers, members of the | bar of Philadelphia, urging Judge] Von Moschzisker's election to aseat on | the bench of the Supreme Court of the | state; when this appeal is read either by [the lawyers or citizens of the state it | should be remembered that the Phila- | delphia bar bas a membership of some- | where between 1500 and 2000 lawyers | Out of this number fourteen have under. | taken to stand for the qualifications of this particular candidate, | The reading of the names to this letter | reveals the fact that Francis Shunk Brown, the chief attorney for the Phila | delphia gang and the supporter and de- | | fender of every ballot box stuffer, baw- { dy-house keepers, repeaters at elections, | | and crooks in Philadelphia, is one of the | signers. ‘There also appears the name | of Hampton L. Carson, who solemuly { certified over his own name that, after | | diligent inquiry he could find no evi-| dence of guilt or graft in the construc- | { tion and furnishing of the new Sapite} | building.

Their greed proved for and they refused to do what they knew to be right, Evidently, these j with all their dignity, forget Davie definition of an honest man which is be “one” who sweareth to his own hurt and changeth not.’ A bill similar to the judges salary bill of 1903 was passed in 1887 or 188g and vetoed by Governor Beaver on the ground that it was in direct conflict with the constitution of the state. This same governor suggested that if the increase was made to apply to judges that were elected after the approval of the act al | lowing the increase he would have sign- ed the bill, and in this he was right. The declaring of the judges salary bill of 1903 constitutional is the i iusipal qualifica. tion which Von Moschzisker presents as | fitting him for a seat in highest court of | the state, The man endorsed by the men whose pames are to this circular should be de- | feated | Save our state ; save our people ; pre- | serve the dignity and respect for the | highest court of this commonwealth from the taint of such a man, Let the iti cians pollute Philudelpbia; even rob the stats by millions as they have done; but when they attempt to place their min. jons in our highest courts of justice then every man should awake to the danger confronting them for when confidence in our courts is lost, society and organ: ized government will suffer. PUT YOUR “NO” THERE! Lock Haven Express the leading newspaper in Clinton county, cautions its readers against the seventh pro- posed amendment to the state cone stitution to be voted for at the elec tion next month, the provision which purposes to make possible thecreation of district election boards by appoint. ment rather than by a vote of the peo- ple, ws now provided. Upon this question the Express says: “If this amendment were adopted the legislature would have the pow. or to change the system of choosing election officers. Now they are elected, The legislature might pass a law providing that they be ap- pointed The voters will have an op- portunity to vote separately upon this amend nt.
