Excitement Ran High For a While About Giant Safe Much pleasureable excitement pre vailed in the vicinity of the Central Democratic Club and the headquar ters of the Palmer-McCormick League last evening between 8 and 9 o'clock on account of certain mysterious movements In North Court street. It appeared that a safe large enough to contain the whole State sinking fund was being moved and as It came out of the building containing the offices, wind and ink bureau, treasury and whispering rooms of the Democratic State campaign committee had found the huge oai'i too small to hold the funds expected to be provided and I that an even larger one was to be installed. Several sets of resolutions were hastily prepared but before they could be acted upon the melancholy fact was learned that the safe was being taken from a store whose owners had failed and that the safe was on Its way to parts unknown.

BLAIR COUNTY ID ROUSING WELCOME [Continued From First Page] welcome and the spontaneous man ner in which the nominees were re ceived was in striking contrast to the lack of interest displayed in the Dem ocratic candidates and Gifford Pln chot's side show. Great Demonstrations In speaking of the event the Phi ladelphia Inquirer of to-day says: "The j demonstration given Dr. Brumbaugh and Senator Penrose at the theater left little doubt as to the sentiment of the voters in Ulair county. Many of the most promintent citizens of the place were present, including physi cians. lawyers, ministers and other professional men. The big shops of ithe Pennsylvania Railroad located i here were represented by a thousand men. Many of the latter Dr. Brum baugh met and shook their hands asi they hurried from the works to pre pare to go to the meeting. All the surrounding towns sent big delegations |to the gathering. From Tyrone came j 200 in eight special trolley cars with | a band. Huntingdon sent 200 and a band also. This is Dr. Brumbaugh's home town. They marched to the ho tel behind a banner hearing this in scription "Brumbaugh, Penrose and the whole Republican ticket." Wil liamsburg sent 500 in a special train. A brass band and two orchestras ac companied this delegation." The staff correspondent of the Phil adelphia Ledger wrote: "This has heen Republican day in Altoona, also it has been in an even larger sense 'Brumbaugh day.' Many party candi dates are here and a number of them, including the nominee for U S. Sen ator, spoke last night, but the pivot of interest is the candidacy of a native and a favorite son of the valley for the governorship. Not only are Re publicans here by thousands, but the Brumbaugh kinsfolk are here in force, headed by their patriarch, the Rev. George B. Brumbaugh, whose son has worked his way from the ranks of a district school teacher to the place of foremost educator, and who is slated for «Ull higher honors. It was Brum- GEN.

To these demands General Carranza replied that only the conference itself was able to take up these questions. Regarding the cutting of the rail way lines north of Auguscalientes, General Carranza says this is not a hostile but a necessary act in view of General Villa's warlike preparations, if anarchy comes and blood is spilled as a result of this the blame, he says, is on the head of Villa. Nearby garrisons are assembling for transportation to Auguscalientes. It is reported here that a special train will leave Mexico City for Vera Cruz to morrow night carrying passengers booked on steamers to sal; for the North. The gap in the railway line to Vera Cruz, it is reported here, is several miles in extent. American Warships to Go Into Mexican Waters By Associated Press Washington, Sept 26.—At the navy department last night It was stated that the battleships Rhode Island, Texas and Minnesota had been ordered i to Vera Cruz to relieve vessels now on I duty there.

Swim Across River "We left McKeesport on Wednes day, went about five miles and camp ed across the river from Duquesne, Pa., where we were entertained by several boys who came in a motor boat. We arose Thursday at 7 o'clock, swam half way across the river and back, did some general clothes wash ing, and embarked about 10 o'clock.

Repub licans of Blair county have been look ing forward to September 25 for sev eral weeks. It was to be the occasion of a genuine old-fashioned Republican rally and ratification, a demonstration that would bring back into the fold many of those who wandered away in 1912." Brumbaugh's Speech Dr. Brumbaugh's plea for a Repub lican victory was particularly signifi cant. "Are you of Altoona satisfied with conditions?" he asked. "Are you working on as full time now- as you desire? Are your coal bins filled for the winter? Is your building society paid up? If not, do you want condi tions changed? You can readily change them by putting into power a Republican administration, which will protect your interests and insure to you the prosperity in the future which you enjoyed under it in the past.'' j The candidate repeated his assertion that "in addition to a highly organized and efficient public service there must be added the quality of moral ser vice." "I am prepared," he said, "not only to discuss every moral issue pertain ing to this campaign but 1 am pledged to myself to see to it that the moral quality of our civilization shall be felt everywhere in the administration of the affairs of the Commonwealth." Concluding his speech. Doctor Brumbaugh said: "To this wide but obtainable program of service, I in vite the sympathy and the support of all the good people of Pennsylvania no matter to what party they may in the past have given their support. 1 make this earnest plea, -not for any personal gain or advantage to myself, but in the earnest conviction that in doing so I am serving in the loftiest way the best interests of the people of this imperial State. Firm For I.ocal Option There was a round of applause when Doctor Brumbaugh renewed his dec laration for local option. "I shall stand for it to the end," said Doctor Brumbaugh, "and when it passes I shall sign it. That is where I stand and I shall not permit any foolish. In rgh who are members of the club.

Dr. Brumbaugh repeated that no man could control his public duties or direct his public thought. He repeated his pledge to give the people not a political administration but a business. Plus a moral, administration. Trust ed by the people with public adminis tration. Doctor Brumbaugh expressed the hope that his public administra tion would be the Inspiration and pride of every private corporation in the State. Penrose Hits Palmer Senator Penrose took a rap at Pal mer, which was roundly applauded by the audience. "1 challenge Mr. Palmer," he said, "instead of going about the State abusing the Republican party, Its can didates, and me In particular, to ex plain to you men and women of Al toona just how a low tariff bill reduced the high cost of living. Let him ex plain to you why so many men are out of work and others are working on short time, earning hardly enough to buy bread for themselves and their families. Do not be misguided by statements that the tariff hits the cap italists and the so-called trusts. The tariff is a vital question for the work ingman."
