WHOLE TICKET SAYS PENROSE Senator Also Says That Re publicans Will Gain Con gressmen in Penria. United States Senator Boies Pen rose issued a statement in Philadel phia last night after conferences with State Chairman William E. Crow and Secretary W. Harry Baker and meeting leaders from many sec tions in which he declared that Pennsylvania would elect the whole Republican state ticket ly a fine majority and rebuke the President s attempt to make political capital out of the war by electing more Republi can congressmen. Senator Penrose saidt ' Senator Sproul and the whole Re publican ticket in Pennsylvania is go ing 1q be elected in Pennsylvania by a very large majority. The usual tailed estimates have not yet been sent by the county chairmen to the state committee. Of course, over 300,000 voters are absent, which will the normal vote, not count ing those who are absent in volun teer work in the Red Cross and in the Young Men's Christian Associa tion in France and places outside of Pennsylvania. "There never was a campaign in which a better opportunity present ed itself for discussion and argument. This is particularly the case since the President's ill-advised statement of last week, calling on the country to elect only Democrats to Congress. This statement is an insult and an affront to many thousand Republi cans who have devoted their services to the government without reward and who are now informed that they are unfit to have confidential rela tions with the administration. Up to the present the war has been conducted by the administra tion on a strictly partisan alignment. The R tblican leaders have not been to , 'ted nor conferred w.lth. Yet thev ve furnished the bulk of supporr -Ihe administration has received in legislation requested. Hits at Wilson's Demand "Wilson's demand is without pre cedent in the history of American politics In the Civil War and in the Spanish War the Democrats were generally opposed to all policies of the administration, and there might have been some pretext for partisan appeal. Yet neither Lincoln nor Mc- Kinley ever appealed to their fel lowcountrymen on a partisan basis. "It is entirely different for leaders of the Democratic party in this in stance to make such an appeal. They are party leaders, and may do so. But the President, as chief magis trate of the nation, in'doing so has treated a gross breach of tact, fair ness and political decency. Genertil Pershing might as well issue an or der in France that none but Demo crats could go 'over the top" during the rest of the war. "Wilson's statement has driven many neutral Republicans, and by neutral Republicans I mean Repub licans who might have voted the Democratic ticket on account of the war. back into the Republican fold. There will be no Republicans voting the Democratic ticket at the ap proaching election. Moreover, many Democratic voters feel humiliated and incensed. The President's of fense becomes more reprehensible because of the vast autocratic powers which have been given to him largely by Republican votes in Congress, which he now cowardly tries to use for partisan purposes. If he had had a Republican House of Representatives at the present time the airplane investigation wogld have been made by the House of Representatives and not by fn'e* At torney General appointed by the President. The result of the inves tigation would not have been sup pressed. as it now is. until after the election to save Ford in Michigan from the charge of profiteering and to avoid the scandalous exposures of the waste of several hundred mil lions of dollars.

OXIDAZE TABLETb. to be had at most of the drug stores and carried by all leading jobbing houses, have many friends who have used them during the past few years themselves and in their families, with the best results. At this time, when Pneumonia is so prevalent, they call attention to the fact that in the city of Mexico, where these tablets were first tried out on a large scale. Dr. G. Pagenstecher, late director of the Am. Hospital there and a very prominent and greatly esteemed physician, reported as fol lows in 1910: "I have tried the reme dy for two full years, and will say I do not know any better and more efficient cure for Pneumonia than Oxidaze. I have had the chance to cure several cases of stfttpurative Pneumonia." Years later he report ed that his treatment for the pre vention and cure of Pneumonia con tinued successfully with Oxidaze Tablets. Dr. Frederick Hiller of the same city reportd the same results after ten years' practice with them. A certain prominent Mill-owner in Worcester County. MasA. who had great confidence, from past experi ence, in this remedy, bought a sup ply of Oxidaze Tablets 5 weeks ago, and distributed them to his em ployees. Although his mill was sur rounded by other mills running only part of the time because of INFLU ENZA, many machines being Idle, and many families afflicted, in one case ten being sick inr bed with the disease, in one family, none of his operatives have been out on account of influenza. Under these circumstanees we suggest that these reliable physi cians probably knew what they were talking about and that It would be ivdu for all of us, In view of the epi demic of Influenza followed by so many cases of Pneumonia, to try out these tablets for ourselves. No possible harm can result using them as a preventive, and, of course, if tlft disease should develop a physi cian should be called in at once. Isold In Harrisburg by George A.
