PENROSE ATTACKS
THE GOVERNOR

men! of the State was against him and
for uninstructed delegates, and fore
casted commission government in
Philadelphia to get lid of what the
Senator called "contractor rule."
The surprise of the evening, how- i
ever, was the declaration of J. Benja
min Dimmirk. of Scranton, who was '
the anti-Penrose candidate for Senator
at the 1914 primaries, for the Senator
and against Dr. Brumbaugh.
While these speeches were going on
the Governor was speaking in Pitts
burgh, defending his course In regard
to industrial matters, but not referring j
to politics. Others who spoke did.
Penrose's Speech
The Penrose speech was in part as
follows:
"I have been In close touch with Re
publicans in and about the national
committee and throughout the country
for a longtime. It lias been gratifying
to note that a universal sentiment in
favor of unpledged and uninstructed
I delegates has generally prevailed. If
fin the present crisis any Republican,
wanted to be President, the quickest ;
way for him to destroy himself wpuld
j be to press his candidacy, either by
; himself or through his triends. by par
tisan, factional or objectionable
methods.
"The result is that no candidate'
stands forth, even at this time, close
as it is to the time of_the_meeting of
the national convention, WHO is ttke+V\
to have a majority of the delegates on
the first ballot. An examination of the !
list of delegates already elected—and '
a substantial majority have been j
elected—and those likely to be elected !
discloses the fact that the convention'
will be composed of representative
businessmen and political leaders of
their States and districts.
Contractor little
,i "In this situation, so general |
throughout the country and so gratify- j
ing to every lover of his country, there
■ has been projected in a very few in- j
' stances a spirit of factionalism and j
selfishness. A firm of street cleaning
contractors in Philadelphia, anxious to
ingratiate themselves with the present j
Governor of this Commonwealth, j
started a campaign for him for the
nomination of President soon after his |
election. Aiding and advising the Vare
contracting firm was the paid attorney j
of the Philadelphia contractors, who j
is. quite conveniently, the Attorney j
General of the State in the present j
administration and the general engi- I
neer of the utility commission of the j
| State, so far as that body which is sup- 1
i posed to he Judicial can be made of j
professional or political advantage.
"The great majority of the Repub- j
licans of the State were unwilling to
sacritice a great principle at a critical '
national period to any purpose of 1
selfish, personal or political aggran
dizement. Being in close touch and
sympathy with them, and having the I
larger view of my national responsi- i
bilities. 1 was unwilling to concur in a
proposition so largely based on vanity
and commercialism. The result has
developed Ihe present factional con- j
test in Pennsylvania, so far as there is :
a contest.
"Responsibility for the factional
i warfare rests upon the street-cleaning '
contractor element, which, although
aided by the Attorney General of
Pennsylvania, and. apparently, with,
j the acquiescence of the Governor, was j
, unable to secure any response from
the people for a candidacy that was
! never taken seriously and soon became
; discredited.
"The Governor has within the last i
few days declared that he Is not a can-1
dldate. Therefore his name is on the '
official ballot for presidential prefer- j
i ence vote, not in goo.l faith, but to aid i
a faction and for trading purposes. In
fact, it is due to him to say that he [
was actually ready to withdraw alto
gether before his name was entered
and that the correspondence was |
drawn up and ready for signature,
when he was coerced into changing his
promise and his plans by the Attorney (
, General and by the Philadelphia!
street-cleaning contractors.
As to Wasson

selfish basis must '>c conceded in a I
voluntary way by the members of a I
party. It cannot be obtained for any j
length of time by fraud or coercion, I
and It cannot certainly he created by I
an artificial process. The present I
member of the Republican national ;
committee from Pennsylvania, as is i
generally known. U an accident, and
is not even representative of the ideals
' involved in the upheaval of four years

the Republicans of Pennsylvania. It is j
known that he might have been ex- i
pelled by the national committee or j
: recalled by the State committee or |
advantage might have been taken of
his offer to resign, had it been thought
of sufficient importance.
"Speaking for no one but himself,
and impressed with the Idea that he
nilght be a candidate for appointment
to a judicial position, he has addressed
a letter to the Governor inviting him
to be the leader of a reunited party.
The party was already united until a
fatuous surrender to a contracting firm
in Philadelphia and to the paid attor
ney of the contractors, who happens [
to be the Attorney General, tempo
rarlly divided the party in the Stale.
Outside of the coercion of the office

Mr. Dimmick said in his speech:

she should not do. and. in my opinion,
will not do, there is out one name that
could be proffered with any belief in

Brumbaugh-Dimmick Committee
I There was issued from the Gov

been appointed on the Brumbaugh

I that this committee would make an'
efTort to reach all the Dimmick sup- 1
porters in the State. The statement
includes an appeal to the Dimmick Col- i
1 lowing to line up for the Governor and
"a reunited Republican party," calling
| attention to the fact that Dimmick
j refused to support Penrose two years
ago as a "moral issue" and declaring J
I that the Senator s re-election was "a
! national calamity." Further, it is de
j clared in the appeal that "it would he

SHE'S THERE BECAUSE SHE PERFORMS—
THE 3400 r. p. m. CHALMERS
Most cars start alike. But very few finish alike.
Therein eonies a mighty difference.
Step on the little button 10 months after date and
you'll readily note the inequality.
One is sluggish, "dead", without emotion, and re
sponds to the touch with the speed of old-time oxen re
sponding to the lash.
The other is alive, alert, ready; radiates desire to
plunge ahead.
This is the 3400 r. p. m. Chalmers kind. The other
kind is the species known to the trade as 4 'one-year" cars.
Chalmers makes a five-year car. There's many an old
1909 Chalmers 80 Blue Bird giving a good account of
itself today. You'll find the everlasting pep there five years
from the day you take your first turn at the wheel.
t Largely because of the 8400 r. p. m. engine. Which
delivers mighty power with easy effort.
It's mostly in the design. The pistons are aluminum,
about two pounds lighter per piston; the reciprocating
parts lighter, which eases up the thrust on the bearings.
Then the crank-shaft, which is very heavy, and bal
anced to the weight of a hair in a special Chalmers device,
spius at the rate of 3400 revolutions per minute.
It means excellent reserve power. For at 10 miles an
hour the engine is turning up only 500 r. p. m. while at
20 she is doing about 1000 r. p. m. So that at excessive
road speed she has the punch to deliver when called upon.
16% of her power is used at 10 miles an hour. So
that she has 60% to 84°fo —when a twisting, hilly road
looms ahead, when a sharp corner with a rugged grade
hoves in sight; when the man ahead is showing you too
much dust.
You'll like the 3400 r. p. m. Chalmers for one single
little reason. She sure can perform.
Ask your dealer about Chalmers service inspection
coupons, negotiable at all Chalmers dealers everywhere.
This system is a most important consideration in buying
your car.
