GREETS PENROSE Columbia Appears to Think More of Penrose Than It Does of "Farmer" Creasy Now Columbia county, the home of "Farmer" Creasy, Democratic nominee for lieutenant-governor and a rock ribbed Democratic district, turned out in force yesterday and last night to cheer for Senator Penrose and his policy of protection to industry. The enthusiasm of his audiences show that in this county as in other Democratic counties, hundreds of stalwart Demo crats are in revolt against the Palmer- McCormick leadership. The Senator ended his trip through the country with a big political rally in Bloomsburg last night, when he addressed a throng of .voters that fill ed the courthouse. Senator Penrose and M. M. Garland, candidate for congress-at-iarge, started from Read ing early in the morning. At Nesco peck, in Luzerne county they were met by a party of active workers from that county and Columbia in automo biles. After a reception at Nescopeck, the Penrose party went to Berwick. Despite the fact that tliere was a steady downpour of rain a large crowd had assembled at the Morton Hotel.. For an hour the Senator and Mr. Gar land shook hands with the voters. At a luncheon in his honor Senator Pen rose met nearly all of the Republican leaders of the county, who informed him of local political conditions. They declared that the Republican vote in Columbia would be surprisingly large, owing to the devision in the Demo cratic ranks and the fact that the in dustrial plants in Berwick, Blooms burg and other points were running on only part time. An audience that filled the Berwick Theater heard Senator Penrose and Mr. Garland in the afternoon. The speakers were presented by Judge J. N. Kurtz. Senator Penrose was ap plauded when he declared that he be lieved Columbia would join with other usually Democratic couhties In re cording Republican majorities. The Senator appealed directly to the Democrats in the crowd to put aside partisanship and vote for the restora tion of protection and prosperity.

In discussing the highways of Penn sylvania Doctor Brumbaugh was equally emphatic. He said: "I am not satisfied with your present road proposition, and I intend to see that when it is reorganized it shall be offi cered and conducted by men not only known to me to be conscientious and efficient, but also known to you to be that kind of men." "Are you men that live here in the western tier of counties satisfied with the roads you have in Pennsylvania?" continued Doctor Brumbaugh. (Cries of "No," "No.") If you are, then you don't want to vote for me for Gover nor. "I stand also for the continuance of the repair of these roads, the placing over them, section by-section, of men who will see to it by reason of their knowledge of road building that these roads are always kept in good condi tion, so that as long as they are used as a part of the highways of our peo ple it will be easy for the farmer to hring his crops to the markets and the people to go freely to and fro about their daily business." Doctor Brumbaugh also left no room for conjecture as to his position on lo cal option. i "X atand for local option and shall HJ® W % #1 fMP W £1 Turbans; 10 styles; I MMriCII J|££rCsi.44[; Monday Specials, /n Silk Hatter's Plush Hats Another large purchase of Fifty Dozen Hats from one of the largest hat manufacturers of New York City, comprising all' the very newest shapes—small, medium and large hats will be*> put ON SALE MONDA Beginning 9 O'clock Best Silk Hatter's Plush MONDAY . . , , , MONDAY Bright finish crowns with heavy zibeline brims.
