A DAI ITIP Scheme to Make Gordon, Democrat, Governor and Wanamaker Senator. THAT IS AIM OF LINCOLN fARTY Berry, Bryanlte, Free Silver Candi date For State Treasurer, Gets Body Blows at Two Ends ot the State. Special Correspondence. Philadelphia, Oct 8. The so-called Lincoln Party, which was formed to defeat the Republican ticket at next inorifli's election baa proved a complete lizzie Outside of Hi fuw im-n at tlio head of lh oitMiilzaUun, all of whom are disappointed oflli e sokurH, aud many of them Ioiik ago repudiutvd by the Republican party, there is absolutely no hai'kiiiK to the ugltatlon, aside from the Wauaiuaker newspaper com bination. Here and tbure, there will be found little groups of followers of thne lead ers who make purim-Iu'm and adopt res olutions for publication In the lumir eut newhpupeni, ho ail to make It ap pear that there is a popular seutlment for their raiiHn. Hut the people ore not being fooled. The Same Old Game. The Lincoln Party Is vlrtuully a re vlval of the old iriuur.ncnt movement which was financed by W'auaiuaker luteiosts, when Wunaiimkcr was a can didate for United Htales senator. The same old facet, are seen at their meetings and thu name old auti-Ue-publican speeches are hiurd at all of their gatherings.

Capital, Surplus and Undivided Profits, $657,040.12 on the Bttimp tor Democratic can didates for Office, la now at the front of the Lincoln Party movement, which is backing Berry, the Free-silver llry anite, Democrat and Prohibitionist, for State Treasurer against J. Lee Plum ruer, one of the most loyal and sincere Republicans that this state ever knew and a man whose integrity and honesty of purpose have never been questioned. With Emery in McKean county, there Is Niles In York, who has twice been turned down for superior court Justice In Republican conventions and who has probably come to the conclusion that he must wreck the Republican party before he can satisfy his craving for a fat office. Niles Is chairman of the state com mittee of the Lincoln Party, and aseo ciated with him as secretary Is George K. MapeH, an editor on the Democratic Philadelphia Record, which Is domi nated by the Wunumaker interests. Where the Wires Are Pulled. The Lincoln party leaders up the state have freipient conferences with E. A. VanVaikenburg, the Wanamaker political manager In Philadelphia. In fact, the whole movement la vir tually directed from the Wanamaker headquarters. Realizing the. Internals which have been promoting this scheme, the, great body of voters In Pennsylvania hsve refused to have anything to do with It. Many are of the opinion that the whole agitation Is leading up to a movement V) make former Judge James (Jay Gordon, a Democrat, an indepen dent candidate for governor, with the ultimate aim of electing Wanamaker United States senator to succeed Pen rose. The more this Idea gets abroad the less popular will be the Lincoln party lu the eyes of Republicans of Pennsyl vania. Reports from every county In the state received by Colonel "Wesley R. Andrews, chairman of the Republican state committee, Indicate that there will be a large Republican vote polled at the coming olectlon and that the Republican candidates will be elected by majorities which will exceed any given to Republican nominees In an "oft year" at any time In the history of Pennsylvania. Berry Gets Two Hard Blows. The Berry campaigners were given severe blows from unexpected quarters In both Allegheny county and Phila delphia. They were counting In the west unon the support of the CItliens' Party In Allegheny county. They had all their plans made upon the basis of getting Berry's name upon the Citizens' Party ticket and thus secure for him the large vote which the independent or ganlzatlon will poll for Its local can dldates. But the Republicans who are affll- lated with the Cltlnens Party did not propose to have their organiratlon made a tail to the Wanamaker kite. They said: "No! We will place the name of J. Leo Plummer, the Republican nom inee for state treasurer, at the head ol our ticket, along with those of the other Republican state candidates." And that is Just what they did. Then a howl went up from the Lln colnltes. The Wanamakerltes through out the state fairly shrieked with an ger. Their Democratic all lea were swearing mad. The whole Berry campaign depended upon a deal with the CItliens' Party to give them the shadow of a chance of figuring In the election returns as a factor In the fight So Indignant was "Wes" Guffey, a brother ot Colonel GufTey. the Demo cratic state leader, over' the throw down which the Berry, men got from the Citizens' Party that he Immediate ly resigned from the Democratic com mittee and said that he would have nothing further to do with the men responsible for the repudiation of Berry. Business Men Said No. The facts are that business men and fnftnilfAf't nrol-a nf Allnivhanv .Aunt. who stood by the Republican party In past campaigns for sound money and the preservation of the Republican policies In regard to the tariff, would have nothing to do with the free silver and free trade Berry, whom the Lln colnltes and the Democrats sought to foist upon the Citizens' Party. The Republican candidate for state treasurer, Mr. Plummer, is now upon the regular Republican tickot and the Citizens' Party ticket In Allegheny county, and he Is assured ot a very large majority there. The Philadelphia situation could not be more gratifying. The City Party, like the Citizen's Party In the west, decided that they could not afford to have a Bryanlte at the head of their ticket They, too, turned down the Llncolnlte-Democrat- lo proposition to name Berrv for state treasurer and they decided to put no state ticket in the field. This was done for purely local reasons. The men back of the Cltr Partv are practically the same as those who are financing the Lincoln Party. They want Berry elected state treasurer but iney reared mat they would lose rotet for their Philadelphia local candidates It they put his name on the City Party ticket Their game Is to have all their radi cal Insurgents vote the Lincoln Party ticket In Philadelphia, which will have the City Party candidates for the Philadelphia local offices In the Lin coln column. Democrats Are Mad. The refusal to mit Berry's name at the head of the City Part ticket has raised a ruction among the Philadel phia Democrats. Many of them declare they have been sold out. After the Democratic convention nominated the full City Party ticket for local offices the Dem ocratic leaders were led to expect that the City Party would put Berry on their ticket. Now the Democrats are organizing In every ward In Philadelphia to op pose the whole City Party movement They have a Bryan ticket with Berry for state treasurer and the full Re publican local ticket fbr local offices. In that way they will get even with the Llncolnites and City Party men, by helping to defeat their Philadel phia local ticket , Coffee anil Smoke In Spain.
