GAS STOVES MAKES Eyes Examined Free of Charge Jeweler and Graduate Optician. Next Door to Court House. Butler. PB. (Communicated.) To tlie Voter* of Butler County. The Union Fusion party of Pennsyl vania has been breathed into existence as a means to an end by which the clean and honest men of an parties may cast their ballots on next Tuesday for candi dates who are not only pledged to re form. but whose actions while occupy ing public office give proof of their sin cerity. If any proof or argument is needed to justify the birth of this party then we refer you to the reckless expenditures and corrupt actions of the last Legisla ture of Pennsylvania. which was aided and backed and defended by the state administration, the chief of whom, was the minority Governor of the state. The voters on last November. 1900, chose a majority of legislators pledged against the return of M. S. Quay to the U. S. Senate, but the horde of lobby bribers. under division chiefs, arrived in Harrisburg with the openiug of the session, and the wishes ot the mijarity of the voters of the state, as it had been expressed as the polls were thwarted, and after the first round of the carnival of bribery, ended, Quay got a certificate to again sit in the l\ S. Senate and thu< a new premium was put on bribery and ! crooked methods. Notwithstanding their bigh-pricv 1 success in their first round the Organiz ed Bosses and political crooks proceeded to tackle every Clergyman and layman during the session th it did not travel with them, and the pen of a McCanley or the voice of a Demosthenes would fail if charged with a discription of their acts, committed under color of law and tlieir solemn oaths. This Legislature was so indefensibly corrupt that mention of some names nakes those of Tweed and Bardslay sound sainted and sanctified. Let the fame of Lincoln, Grant, Garfield. Ar thur, Hays, Harrison and McKinley sliine on this so called Republican Leg islature and they would vanish and flee from its blackness like wills-o-the-wisp Yet the recent State Convention, owned and directed by Quay and his Bosses, who had stifled ballot reform, which they pledged the people on the stumi prior to election, endorsed the actions of this Legislature and proceeded to nomi nate Mr. Telephone Potter for Supreme Judge and Mr. Quay Stone Ripper Har ris for State Treasurer, and pledged them when they accepted nomination upon said platform to endorse what Re publicans like Postmaster General Smith, ex-Postmaster General John Wanamaker, Samuel M. Clemment, District Attorney Rot.hermal, Senator David Martin and U. S Revenue Collec tor McClain, all of Philadelphia, e.v Gov. Hastings, ex Att'y Gen. McCor mick, ex-Congressman Chas. W. Stone. Hon John Dalzell, George W. Merrick, ex-Lieut. Gov. Watres and the preseut Lieut. Gov. Gobin (who until recently trained with the Quay-Stone ore&niza tion.but who now denounces their reck less corruption and utter disregaid of the interests of the people), denounce.as do all the public men that have been mentioned. Moreover ministers of the Gospel all over the state, who are not politicians or office seekers, stveral hundred of them in the city of Pniladelpbia have recently held public meeting to discuss the peoples' cause and they have de nounced the reckless and corrupt city government of Philadelphia, as well as that of the entire state. This mention of the names of distin guished citizens of Pennsylvania, who either now, or in the recent past, have been office holders, is here made because they have in their public duties been brought In personal contact with the reckless and corrupt action of the state machine, that seeks to muzzle and sup press self-respecting freemen. Added to these there are many thousand hon est voters in the state, laymen, business, nlid professional, who know the truth of these statements. These facts, as to our state affairs and the methods used, are to a large degree applicable to con ditions in Butler C'onnty at the present time, which plainly became manifest in the Republican primaries of 1900 and 1901, when factional machine tickets were printed and distributed, coutain ing only the names of certain candidates selected by a political clique, who thus assumed by their dark-lantern methods to deceive, mislead, and GULL the fair minded, but unsuspecting voter, into casting a vote for their candidates. The employment of these methods in the 1900 primary campaign by the ring binchtneu only succeeded by less than 1(H) votes in the County, and this is proof on its face, if the vote at that primary hid been uninfluenced by the printed tickets and rosy promises of the gang, we would have had members at Harm burg who would not have supjiorted and voted for Ripper Bills, needlees new offices, outrageous Traction and Rail road Steals, four million dollars of the tax-payers' money to expend on the Capitol Building, and tolerated falsified Journals and padded Pay Rolls, and numerous other doings and votes, not in the interest of the people, of which space here forbids our mention. The Republican primary was held, the present year, the first day of last June, and all candidates for office at that time announced their names in the columns of the Party Newspapers of the county and started in to make their personal canvass on their merits before the people; and if the canvass had been al-j lowed to proceed to nomination day on this line, doubtless, the ticket would have been differently constituted. But sometime prior to nomination day it be came apparent that a clique of persons, known as the new county Bosses, by a common purpose and agreement, entered into a canvass and used the Re publican organization solely in the in terest of candidates of their own selec tion. In pursuance of this purpose they made a canvass of the County, mostly by twos, in good carriages and took with them a good supply of the printed factional tickets, that have been men tioned, and which they distributed to certain of their borough aud township heelers. It may be said that many of these claquers were BUSINESS MKN and many of them were like the Indian, they leved "to BAKTER and TRADE a bit," with a well-dressed dude acting as PAYMASTER and accompanied by mem bers of the legislature who showed their interest in the scheme by leaving their JOBS at Harrisburg to visit voters at their rural homes Ifthoy did not see the persons wanted in that way, word was sent by some conrier to them to visit Butler; when they arrived here their hands were eagerly grasped by usually indifferent aristocrats, either on the streets or in the office, and future political plans unfolded, (which perhaps embraced them,) and they naturally saw only the mighty ropes and pulleys of the organization machine which was well bushed and boxed with GOLD to prevent any friction, and so the ma chine ran at high pressure until the polls closed, the eve of June first, when it stopped for want of power anil st-wjd still until the UNION PARTY ticket caused it to fall out of balance, and notning but new bushing and high-pres sure running will stand any chance of beating the time of the UNION PARTY ticket. But the mendacious commercial em ployes of the state machine here have got sealed orders to raise their cry of REGULARITY, as they did last year. Notwithstanding that after they were squarely defeated last November ill the state, they fused with recreant Demo crats and some Judases, elected to the legislature as Anti-Quay Republicans, and thus purchased their high-priced success. Now let the fair minded voter juk himself why this selfish and corrupt Kang should have a trade-mark patent on their BRAND of fusion to defeat the WILL of the people expressed at the polls by their Ripper-Methods; yet the moment the honest voter assays to cast his ballot for clean candidates, who know no masters save the people, they howl their deatlx-bed son# of "KEOU LARTY". This reminds us that "when Satan was sick a Saint he would be, but when he got well no Saint was he." Their insincere and paid hirelings are now abroad throwing sand in the eyes of voters for their own selfish purposes. Why are these LABOKKKS SO much concerned about the peoples candidates? Are their jobs jeopardized by thesliadow of the success of the Union ticket? Let every voter think before he is con vinced by the taugled fallacies of the BlNti, woven for their own covering, that they may continue in posesslon of the public offices Remember you vote a secret ballot without any hired to.il to molest you and no living person will know how yon voted if you do no? vmr self proclaim it, but your ballot will be i counted as marked. Be sure to obtain and examine n sample ballot so that you may vote in telligently, not only for the UNION PARTY candidates but also for both ol the important Constitutional Amend ments ANOTHER OLD REPUBLICAN.
