An Aggressive Canvas to Be Inaugu
rated With the Gathering of the
Leaguers at Their Convention. In
' Harrliburg.
Special Correspondence.
Harrlsburg, Sept. 10.
While the Republican state commit
tee headquarters were opened In. Phil
adelphia this week, the campaign for
the election of the Republican nomi
nee for state treasurer, Joha O. Sheats,
It Is believed, will not be Inaugurated
until the meeting of the atate conven
tion of the Republican League ot
Clubs, which will be held In this city
on Tuesday and Wednesday, Septem
ber 24th and 25thM respectively.
It Is predicted fnat there will be a
larse attendance at this convention,
and there is promise of tome brilliant
oratory from gifted sons of Pennsylva
nia, who will tell of the splendid char
acter of their standard bearer In the
state campaign, and of the enthusiasm
with which his nomination has been
received by his fellow citizen through
out tho commonwealth.
Reports that come here from the
various counties of the state all con
firm the claims of Colonel Wesley R.
Andrews, chairman of the Republican
state committee, that the party organ
ization was never more harmonious.
nor never more loyal to a ticket than
It Is today.
Colonel Andrews, while he has de
layed the opening of the state head
quarters until this week, has been In
correspondence with the chairmen of
the Republican county committees and
others active In the organization all
summer, and there Is undoubted evi
dence that much preliminary work baa
been done In the way of qualifying
the voters In the matter of the pay
ment of taxes and In interesting those
who are obliged to be personally reg
istered under the recently enacted leg
islation In this very Important feature
of the campaign.
Must Qualify Voters.
While voters In first and second
class cities still have an opportunity
to be personally registered on Tues
day, September 17th, and Saturday,
October 5th, the residents of third'
class cities have also two days more
for registration Tuesday, September
17th, and Saturday, October 19th.
Under the election laws of Pennsyl
vania, every citizen, to be qualified to
vote at next November's election, must
have paid a state or county tax within
two years.
The last day upon which taxes can
be paid to qualify voters for the next
election will be Saturday, October 5th,
Citizens in Pennsylvania living out
side of cities are not required to be
personally registered.
It Is expected that there will be
thousands of visiting Republicans not
connected with the Club League come
to this city during the days of the con
vention gathering to meet Mr. SheaU
and the others of prominence In the
Republican party who will be In at
tendance upon the convention.
Candidate Sheatz has evidently made
a fine Impression wherever he has
been, for there Is a great demand to
Confirmation Notice.

ing sooounta have been filed In my olllce

Case of Ladies' Extra Heavy
Fleeced Underwear at
25c Garment.
Only through our foresight in having placed our
order many months ago are we now able to offer a fleeced
garment for 25c.
Notwithstanding the very radical advance in price ot
cotton we have been very fortunate in securing an ex
ceedingly good value to sell for 25c.
We early made up our minds to get a good garment
or none at all. You'll find little if any difference between
this and the garment we sold last fall at a quarter. Of
course we've had to pay a good stiff advance in the price,
but you still get a fleeced garment here for a quarter.

Many Dauphin county Republicans
aere present at the recent meeting at
Ihe Grangers picnic at Williams Grove,
whpn Mr. Sheatz was the principal
orator, and they were delighted with
the Impression he made upon the
voters and the manifest sincerity of
his pledges to conduct the office of
tate treasurer as he would his own
business, and to be upon the alert to
check extravagance or any Illegal
raids upon the money of the peoplo,
Sheatz's Ideal State Treasurer.
When asked to state the "kind of
atate treasurer Pennsylvania should
have," John Oscar Sheatx wrote the
following:
"He must realize that as treasurer of
Pennsylvania he Is merely acting as
trustee of your money and Is not the-
owner of It.
He must stand ready to pay every
Just obligation of the commonwealth,
and absolutely refuse to pay any sum
when the expenditures are not clearly
defined by existing laws, or when fla
grant extravagance exists. In the lat
ter case the sooner the press and pub
lic are made aware of the fact the bet

not political pull.
The foregoing are my thoughts on
the question of state treasurersblp,
and if the people of Pennsylvania,
after carefully looking up my record
as a member of the atate legislature
during the sessions of 1903-05-0-07 (the
only office I have held) find It as being
tonslstent with my views here ex
