The day for buying a “pig In a poke” in politics Is past, and our primary sys tem gives us the opportunity of smashing these political machines in all parties that hold their strength only through darkness and evasion, “If a candidate has no other pledge to make to you than his de- sire to gratify a personal ambition, you owe nothing to him. Be “feary” of the man who Insists upon the personal Integrity. It Is true that “an egg that must be vouched for it is a bad egg every time,” and this is ever true In political elections. Your best Interests will be served by voting for the man who tells you where he stands.

In the face of a united and trusted Democracy Mr. Penrose never would have dared to nominate Mr. Ten- er. The time has arrived to make a real minority party of the Penn- gylvania Democracy. “If the Republicans of the Pennsylvania are put upon their mettle by a strong antagonist, their party will be forced to advocate proper measures and select strong men.
