The President's message which was delivered to Congress the President the previous messages markable impression country. Mr. Wilson has the most ex- traordinary endowment of ¢ommon sense of any President within the last fifty years. His first message dealt with the Tariff, his message relating to legislation urged congress to pass an elastic Currency Bill. The former became a on October 3rd, and the latter December 23rd. These two great measures having been written in to our Statute book, he now urges Congress to take up the trust question. The main provisions which he desires to be enacted into laws are as follows: 1. Prohibiting interlocking torates of great corporations especial- ly prohibiting one who is a director in a great manufacturing concern from serving on a board of directors of any transportation company that moves manufactured products thereof. 2. Prohibiting suing stocks and amounts than the value of the road. This will keep “water” of railroad stocks in the future. 3. A provision for punishing guilty individual instead of the ness where the law is violated. 4. A provision poration from When laws evils greater part personally by of his made a re- the entire same as all has on second law on direc- the from is for larger railroads bonds measure out the busi- forbidding one owning another. remedying the been made effective the of wrong the trust and big business cured.

It they he spoken they are in the very have been made events in our master of nf ’" the Lie WHY NOT JOHN HEWITT? During the past week a move has been started by the friends of Rev John Hewitt, of Bellefonte, to boom him as a candidate for the Democratic nomination for Congress from this congressional district, consisting of the counties of Centre, Clearfield, Cameron and McKean. Centre coun- ty has not had representative in Congress since the days of Andrew G. Curtin, and is certainly en- titled to such consideration at this time. In Rev. John Hewitt we would have a representative to be proud of. A man of splendid education, an ac- complished orator, and a gentleman of spotless reputation, he would repre- sent this district in the lower house of Congress with signal ability and re- flect credit and honor on his constit. uency, If ever the democracy of Pennsyl- vania should choose good men for Congress, that time Is the present President Wilson's policies, as fast an advanced, have been proven safe and sound, to which fact a united nation is according ite approval. The suc- cess of the Democratic administration Is due, largely, to the splendid sup- port given Mr. Wilson by Congress, without which he could accomplish Ifttle. This fact, then, miggests the necessity of choosing men of the high- est worth for Congress, who will work in harmony with the splendid achleve- ments of the present administration, Why not Congressman Hewitt?

Long before the Quaker city put on the airs of Parisian nobility, It was familiarly dubbed “Philamacling”! In the good old days cnronicled, when men of worth, sobriety and blie hon or sat in the synagogue known as “town hall,” the good people of Penn- sylvania did most of their with Philadelphia business all the old-timers there are a half dozen houses left have been taken by an class of shoddy aristocracy, forced to disgorgs collapse into t nihility rean sophists!

Among the reasons he gives is that the jes need more freedom of ac- tion. A constitutional amendment taking them out of the prohibitive ar- ticle of the constitution, would meet that want, without a million dollar con-con. The last legislature sat down on all of Dr. Draper's “progressive” measures, and no wonder! They were incomprehensible in language, per- nicious in effect and so ill digested that it would have required the courts searching for ten years, for their meaning This publicist agitation among the st and of cit is prominently men- tioned by the progressives for govern or. “De Gang,” would be about as well pleased with him as they were with “Ned” Stuart the pride of the Union League The only has a Club Republican th far decent plank platform auditor who says state pensive humbugs | the g reaus, commissions doodle carbuncles!

They will not hominate =a Philadelphia ally of the recusants nor a single taxer. They want a man for governor %ho favors equal and just taxation, as the constitution in tended it, and who believes in “turn- ing the rascals out.” The old constitution is all right The infernal perversion of it by the Republican system of favoritism and tax-dodging is the only thing that re- quires reformation.
