of Clarington,
Pbksidfnt Taft adiea more farmers
and farms aa one way to regulate the cost
of Hying. A practical Idea is worth more
than an ocean of Democratic froth about
the tariff.
A votk for A. R. Mochllng Is a vole to
return to the legislature one of the beet
representatives the county baa ever bad
In Harrixburg. Don't fill to give ulin
your support both by your ballot and by
word of mouth. The county will need
just such a wide awake man in the House
next winter. Keep that in oiiud.
Rkports Irom every section of the
Uulou are to the effect that disaffected
Republicans are rapidly getting back in
to line for President Tall. Punxy Spirit.
They are fast coming to realize that a
vole for any other candidate is only help
lug the party of free trade and bard times
to again bring ruin on the country.
Colon kl Roosevelt bad so far recov
ered from the wounds inflicted by the
would-be assassin that be was able to re
turn to his borne at Oyster Bay Monday.
The trip was made without special inci
dent or injury to the patient, who says be
will be able to make a few more speeches
before the campaign closes. The bullet
in the colonel's breast has been located,
but as It was giving blm no trouble the
doctors concluded to leave it there for the
time being.
The people of Forest county demand
the strongest man aa tbeir Representative
t Harrlsburg this winter. That man Is
unquestionably Hon. A. R. Mechling,
who was nominated by the Republicans
last spring and baa the unanimous en
dorsement of the Progressive or Wash
ington party in this county. The people
recognize in Mr. Mecbling a legislator of
experience and tact, who will be able In
guard tbeir interests at Harrisburg as no
other man can at this critical period.
Vote for him and see that your neigh
bor and friend does tbe same.
Says tbe Rlizzard: ' The Franklin
News, always liberal in the treatment of
its contemporaries, is good snout h to say
'the Blizzard has been doing some mighty
good work for Neighbor Speer during the
campaign.' We appreciate the friendly
comment, but disclaim having done any
very bard work. It requires no special
effort to say a good word for such an ex
cellent fellow citizen. And we never
could see any )ustice nor wisdom in turn
ing down a good, thoroughly tested em
ployee just to make room for another,
even if tbey were on an equality as to
ability."
The time is at band when minds must
be made up and voters must determine
who will represent them In congress.
The public crib never bad great attrac
tion for Peter M. Speer. He earned every
dollar be has used. By patient attention
to tbe details of bis business be has suc
ceeded In building up an honorable
reputation. He has given tbe same care
ful attention to tbe details of our busi
ness in Washington and it is reasonable
to expect that he will continue to look
after our best interests if re-elected- It
is only fair that be should be returned,
as be ia better (quipped by experience to
serve ns. Oil City Blizzard.
Says tbe Franklin News: Congress
man Speer Is, by experience and by
natural ability and fitness, far more per
fectly representative of this district than
is either tbe Democratic candidate or
nulings. The Democratic aspirant ia
not a man of ability ol any kind and tbe
claims of Iluliugs are based principally
on illnatured hostility to tbe greatest in
dustry in Venango county. A vote for
Hulingsiaa vote to put a spiteful and
narrow man into a place of honor; a vote
for the Democratic candidate ia a vote to
Bend an incompetent man to do very Im
portant work. A vote for Speer is a vote
to put into tbe House a man of unques
tioned honesty and ability who has bad
experience and who is fairly entitled to a
second term.
A very successful Republican rally
was held at Fredonia, Mercer couuty,
Monday evening, 250 voters being present
at Institute ball to meet Congressman P.
M. Speer and members of his party who
are touring through Mercer county. The
meeting was addressed by Senator Emery
and Mr. Speer. The latter made an ex
cellent address, reviewing his work as
the representative from this district. A
number of Bull Moose men were present
ud at tbe conclusion of Mr. Speer'a
speech tbey aought au introduction and
pledged him tbeir support, saying it was
tbeir first opportunity to meet blm and
bis defense of bla record bad corrected a
false Impression they bad formed. Mr.
Speer is growing stronger every hour in
Mercer county, aud tbe indications are
that be will have a very large majority
when the votes are polled. The same
conditions are apparent all over the district.
WILLIAM HOWARD TAFT.
"I would rat h r have my political econ
omy founded upon the everyday exper
ience of the puddler or the potter than
the learning of the professor, the farmer
and factory hand than tbe college (acuity.
Then there is another class who want
protective taritis overthrown. They are
the men ot independent wealth, with set
tled and steady Income, who want every
thing cheap but currency; the value of
everything clipped but coin cheap labor,
but dear uionpy."
State Chairman Endorses Mechling.
Headquarters Kkitblican State)
Committee,
Philadelphia, Pa., Del. 19, 1912. )
Editor Forest Republican:
Dear Kir: -I am enclosing a copy of a
letter from Allen R. Mechling, candidate
for the Legislature, received in reply to
my official communication asking for an
Ind'caUon of bis position with reference
to the program of legislation contained In
tbe Republican State Platform, and
would ask you to give tbe same full pub
lication. Tbe consummation of the pro
gram of legislation la of the utmost im
portance to tbe people of Pennsylvania,
and before entering judgment at tbe polls
tbey have a right to know where every
candidate stands with respect thereto. I
believe that Republican candidates who
rquarely approve the program are enti
tled to the support of all right-thinking
people, regardless of party affiliation and
regardless of auy endorsement they may
or may not have. Trusting you will give
the enclosure tbe proper publicity, I am,
Very truly yours,
Henry O. Wahsos, Chairman.
Mr. Mechling's letter above referred to
was published In these columns at tbe
time it was transmitted to Chairman
Wesson, to whom it was entirely satis
factory, as tbe chairman'acordial endorse
ment indicates.
When Peter M. Speer waa before tbe
people two years ago for election to Con
gress be gave bis word that it would be
bis aim to support every measure that
wonld be tor the betterment of the condi
tions and welfare of tbe common people.
How well be has kept that pledge la at
tested by the record. Only for bis efforts
and splendid work it is questionable
whether tbe country would have a parcels
post law at this time, Not only this, but
Mr, Speer voted for every progressive
measure that came before Congress; for a
non-partisan Tariff Commission; for tbe
election of U. S. Senators by direct vote
of tbe people; lor the Campaign Expense
Publicity Bill; for tbe Eight Hour Day
Law; for the Antiphnsphoroua Match Bill;
for bills to create a Child's Labor Bureau,
and a Department of Labor; for tbe In
d atrial Commission Bill: for the Sea
man's Bill; for bill to regulate Convict
Labor; to remove the gag rule from em
ployees; for liberal pensions to old
aoldiers; lor Federal Aid to publio roads;
and all other progressive legislation pro
posed, beneficial to labor and to tbe peo
ple generally. Mr. Speer opposed the in
iquitous Coosa River dam bill, that was
alterward vetoed bv President Taft. And
be vigorously protested against tbe grant
ing of charters to steal the water powers
of Tionesta creek and will still further
throw bis influence against this iniquity.
Has our Congressman kept faith with his
people in every particular We think be
surely has. Then for bis absolute faith
fulness and splendid services be should
in all fairness hare, not only your vote
but your loyal, hearty support and in
fluence for bis re-election.
rnoF. wilnon aoesn't think tbe same
of Col. Bryan now that be did when be
wanted to knock bim into that pictur
esque but uncomfortable attitude known
as a cocked bat.
Sheriff Oscar Roudnbusb, Carl Burch,
M. L. Roudeluisb, Andrew Snorr and
Alton and Charles Muckenhaupt of
Meauvuie, nave jusi completed an oil
well in Forest county, near Tionesta,
which tbey expect will makean excellent
producer. The ownera were on the lease
Weduesday when tbe venture waa torpe
doed and tbe indications Inllowing tbe
snoi ana previous to it, were for a well
above tbe average. TLe bole will have to
be cleaned out and tubed before it can be
told bow much oil will be produced.
The company has under lease -il acres
about three miles from Tionesta, and in a
belt where there is known to be good oil.
Their first well was ruined when it was
shot, by the blowing out of the casing
and clogging of the hole so badly that it
could not be opened. This made an ex
cellent showing, so good In fact that when
it became necessary to abandon It, It waa
decided to drill the second well only ten
feet from the first bole, and that Is the one
that has now been shot. Tbe rock Is very
hard, so bard, in fact, that when the No.
2 well was drilled it was discovered that
the 25 quart shot used In the first wel
bad not shattered tbe rock ten feel away
