WEDNESDAY EVENING
DIIN CONFIRMED
DESPITE CHIDES
Palmer and His Friends Force
Through Gettysburg Appoint
ment in the Senate
Democrats hero are much inter
ested in the news from Washington
that Charles S. Duncan con
firmed by the Senate as postmaster at
Gettysburg, yesterday. His confirm
ation had been withheld for nearly two
months, due to the protest made by
Senator Penrose against any imme
diate action in the cases of the post
masters at Delta, York county, and
Gettysburg, Adams county.
It was asserted by Senator Penrose
that these places were pawns in cam
paign contribution scandal, which it
is charged has permeated all parts of
the State under Democratic rule.
Representatives Palmer and Brod
beck, Democrats, of Pennsylvania,
urged the* Senate committee to make
favorable report on the Gettysburg
office, asserting that it was in no way
tainted with fraud or scandal.
John J. McAllister was confirmed
by the Senate as postmaster at Bryn
Mawr, Paul A. Brosius as postmaster
at Lock Haven, I'a.

Clay.

derry Water Company remove Its big
12-inch main from the bridge over
creek T between Koyalton and
Middletown. In 1903 the commission

The Way
to Get
the Home
Ever wonder how the man
who makes S6O a month,
supports a family, and owns
his home, is able to do
It? Ask him, and he'll
tell you he saved.
Why not open a time
deposit account here, and
add to It as you can?
When you have enough
saved, use It as the first
payment on a home, and
let us arrange a mortgage
to cover the balance of
the purchase price.
That's the eahy and the
sure way.
