8 BRUM FIRM FOR LOCAL OPTION Republican Candidate Sets Forth His Platform in Final Appeal to Voters of State SAYS WHAT HE STANDS FOR Will Own No Boss but the People of Pennsylvania, Says the Stalwart Educator Dr. Brumbaugh sets forth that he Is llrm for county local option and has no bosses in his tinal appeal to the voters of Pennsylvania. The Doctor took occasion to-day to say that he ■would be elected by about 250,000 and appeared to be very cheerful over the result. In his appeal, which is strongly In dicative of the man, Dr. Brumbaugh ea>s: The campaign is over. The Issue Is with you. X have been in all sec tions ol' the State, have met thousands upon thousands of our people and liave talked freely, frankly and earn estly upon the issues in the campaign, j have not descended to personal abuse, to slander, to misrepresenta tion and to defamation'ot character. Some people will live to be heartily nshamed of the unwarranted abuse Injected into this contest. 1 have not paid a thing to win office that 1 will not do if placed 111 office. 1 am con tinent of a triumphant election be cause the right will assuredly win. It has been my steadfast purpose to be have seemly at all times and X hold that the way one carries himself as a candidate is the best index of the ■way he 'will behave as an officer. "The campaign X have conducted ■will leave, 1 hope, in the hearts of the people a sincere love an<l appre ciation of this great Commonwealth. When others assailed her fair fame and dragged her splendid achieve ments in tlie mud and slime of partisan abuse 1 have .steadily taught a gospel of civic pride and have asked the people to recall our great history, our line traditions, our State-wide wel come to all peoples, to revere our good homes, our line schools and our splen did churches. These spiritual foun tains must be kept clean and pure and eweet if we are to build here a great und enduring civic and industrial community. The nation or .State that forgets God shall surely perish. "With ail the energy at my com mand 1 have urged the conservation *>f human life in Pennsylvania. I have stood and do stand for the most advanced program of social and moral service that any one can reasonably stand for. This includes in detail many specific enactments which it is the duty of the Incoming Legislature and executive to secure • for our people. .Among these are the following: "Workmen's compensation act, ad- Were You Prejudiced!

TURN GRAV HAIR DARK Try Grandmother's old Favorite Recipe of Sage Tea and Sulphur Almost every one knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly compound ed, brings bark the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded, mreaked or gray; also ends dandruff, itching scalp and stops tailing hair. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home, which is mussy and troublesome. Nowadays, by asking at any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com pound," you will get u large bottle of this famous old recipe for about 50 cents. » Don't stay prav! Try it! No one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as it does it so naturally and evenly. You dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small Mrnnd at a time; by morning tlie gray hair disappears, and after another application or two. your hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and glossy.— Advertisement. MONDAY EVENING, vanced employers' liability act, better child labor luus. and more humane provisions for women to toil in our industries. It also includes the en actment of a law permitting the peo ple in each county to decide tor them selves whether or not licenses shall be issued for the sale of Intoxicating liquors, a corrupt practice act, the submission of the question of woman's suffrage to Ihe people In the form of an amendment to our Constitution, and such added elements of remedial legislation as will adequately and safely conserve the welfare of our army of toilers—whether men, women or children. "1 have also advocated larger sup port to our great school system and the extension of its curricula to in clude a practical training In the great industries of our State, including agri culture. "We must have better conditions on our farms. We must make It pay in dollttrs and in social and educational service to stay on the soil. We need many more lood growers in Pennsyl vania. We cannot do too much to conserve the rural life of the Statu. "(!ood roads, honestly built, well graded, crowned and drained, and placed under the constant care of men trained for the purpose, are a vital need of the State, t shall assuredly so handle this problem as to meet the needs of our people and to satisfy all reasonable persons that the road Pennsylvania Is In the care of men entirely competent and satis factory not only to 1110 but to the peojlle at large. "We must be generous to our char ities; we must also be Just to them. Hasty and unscientific appropriations shall not escape my veto. It must be understood now, not later 011, that 1 stand for absolutely fair, just and Im partial use of the public funds and will brook 110 dictation or suggestion that will in any degree change my llrm resolution to manage the affairs of the State in a way that will reflect the best business capacity and the highest personal character of our people. "1 hold the feelings and aspirations of the common people in my heart. To work for them will be a pleasure more than a duty. They are good people and their welfare shall always be my prime concern. It is my firm purpose to manage the affairs of the State in an open, honest, capable way. 1 have no respect for opportunists or for bosses. 1 shall never be bossed by anyone. I have never been bossed. Pennsylvania ought to be so governed as to make it impossible for bosses to exist In the State. 1 shall do my full duty in helping to make this State clean and wholesome and worthy of her tlnest traditions and loftiest char acter. "The precepts taught me by ray, Rood fatlier and my sainted mother are sacred guidances. These 1 shall humbly observe as long as I live. It lias been a pleasure to observe the golden rule and the great Injunction, 'Tliou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.' 1 am frankly | a firm believer in the Institutions or our religious life and am pained that some who ought to know better have so far forgotten their sacred obliga tions as to hear false witness. 'Verily they shall have their reward.' "I have no hunger for office. Its honors do not appeal to me. Ido not care for the power that arises from patronage cunningly bestowed. It would be better if one in executive responsibility were relieved of much, very much, of the duty of appointing people to office. A wise and just and reasonable civil service could well re place the Importunings of candidates and their friends. The executive should have time to administer the laws and interpret the will of the people. ■'lt remains to add that having lived as I have talked, having done no uncharitable deed to any one in Pennsylvania, having given my life gladly and freely for the intellectual and moral uplift of the people of Pennsylvania, T pledge myself to a clean, capa ble , and conscientious perform ance of my public duties and ask each voter to put his conscience into his ballot on Tuesday, and I shall be satis lied with the result."

The voters are aroused as never before and are eagerly awaiting the opportunity to administer a crush ing defeat to the Demoratlc party at ithe polls on Tuesday. "The Democrats have conducted a campaign of ybtise and misstatements concerning Hie Republican party and its candidates, in order to lild A the sins of their own party and the dis astrous results of the Democratic Palmer-Underwood free trade law, which has caused thousands of work in Km en to lie thrown out of employ ment. Tn our neighboring town of Steelton less tli;ui 40 per cent, of the normal number of people arc being employed in the large stel plant and this condition Is pretty genera! throughout the country. "T have spoken personally to hun dreds of workingmen and they are rallying loyally to the support of the entire Republican ticket. The Repub lican campaign has been conducted along strictly business lines and any attempt, to buy the election will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. "I have every reason to believe that Dauphin county will give 2.500 ma jority for Dr. Brumbaugh and the en tire Republican ticket." ROOSEVELT GIVEN HARD RETURN JABS Dr. Brumbaugh Refers to the Colo nel in Tart Language in His Final Speeches Theodore Koosevelt's Interference with tin 1 politics of Pennsylvania in satisfaction of a grudge and his coun tenancing of the fusion deal with a Democratic candidate who prates about his lldellty to Woodrow Wilson, were subjects of some tart comments in Chester county 011 Saturday by Dr. Brumbaugh. The Republican nominee, who got back at itoose\elt's characterization ot hiiu as a lamb, by saying that the Colonel was a goat who butted in, mentioned the fact that ltoosevelt Was once his friend und had urged him to remain as superintendent of schools In Porto Jtico. In iiis speech Dr. Brumbaugh said: "l.et vis Oe perfectly fair and frank and give back to a lot of slanderers and troducers of this Commonwealth the lie In this campaign. "1 did not need to come to you for this office. 1 am not crazy to hold office, but want to serve the people of this State. It is strange that a man who bus lived in the churches, schools and homes of the people of Pennsylvania, simply because he wants an office, is suddenly discovered to be a very bud man. The very papers that have up held and praised my work as super intendent of schools now turn around and utter the bitterest of slanders and lies and abuse. • ltoosevelt Once Ills Friend Gentlemen, you can't go far on a campaign of misrepresentations or lies. In IHO2, as an illustration of what i have In mind, when the late lamented President McKinley was as sassinated and hi.s successor entered upon his official duties, 1 was in the island ol Porto Rico as the commis sioner of education. I resigned that position and came home. 1 have never gone into the details for the reason of that, and I shall not until this campaign is over. But the same man who as President of the United State received my resignation imme diately telegraphed me and asked me to withdraw my resignation and re turn to the service In the island of Porto itico, where I had worked two years under his predecessor. "Isn't it strange, isn't it pitiful, that that same man should come into this State in the last week and prate about me and try to drive the same man out of Pennsylvania that he tried to keep in Porto Kico twelve years ago? How are the mighty fallen! And how strange it is that men in the bitter ness of a campaign will so lar forget their manhood, dignity and honor as to lose confidence and respect of de cent people who have believed them to be above falseness, slander and ugliness in a campaign. "I want to say to you, gentlemen, that 1 have, tried to carry myself as a candidate for oflice in a gentlemanly way on the theory that If a man can not be a gentleman when seeking an office he will scarcely know how to be a gentleman when he is in office. I ask you here in good old Chester county for a square deal, and not to let the slanderer and the liar determine how you shall lie Jed and voted next Tuesday, but put your conscience Into your ballot, and If you believe with me in a clean, capable, conscientious administration of the affairs of Penn sylvania then you can safely give me your support." "\\ itliout Pledge or Promise" "It is a pleasure to meet with the good people of Chester county," he concluded, "with whom I have been associated educationally for many, many years, and i have come here for the first time in my life seeking an office at the hands of my fellow citi zens, and the reason I come is that we had an open primary which enabled a man without pledge or promise to any human soul to submit his claims dl rectdly and squarely before the people of the State. I tell you very honestly that unless a man could come directly to the people with his claims I never would have sought office. "1 have spent thirty-six years in the school work of this State. 1 have no political experience to bring to this campaign. I am glad of it. 1 have no financial support to bring to it. and 1 would not buy an office If 1 could. "In the moral situation that makes for a better citizenry of Pennsylvania I grant you this proposition: that un less the legislature of the State of Pennsylvania at its next session seri ously turns to the business of serving the Interest of the people it will be a sad mistake, and 1 shall use every endeavor to force through that Legis uature a workingman's compensation act, an employers' liability act, a child labor law, safeguarding the women who toil In Pennsylvania, and a coun ty local option law, giving the people of the Stale the right, county by county, to determine for themselves whether or not Intoxicating liquors shall be sold In their county."
