A few days ago, an old soldier, then in onr office said that be intended not ing for Greer because.he (Greer) was an old soldier, that "that they were trying to pnsh the old soldier aside," etc.; bnt we reminded this old soldier that Greer had been well repaid for all he had ever done by being kept in office for twenty-seven years. On the other hand Greer has nhown but little regard fot bis former com rades. There are several old soldiers in this town and county to whom the Court Crier-ship at $3.00 a day would have been a godsend, but Greer has preferred keeping Bert,- Hockenberry, a young and comparatively wealthy man, in the place for now nearly ten years— perhaps because Bert ' 'carries the vote of Cherry twp. in h's vwrt pocket " Then again Greer lately tnrned down James A McMarlin. a needy old soldier for County Detective, after McMarlin had been recommended for the place by the District Attorney And then again, it is but a few years since an old soldier carted Greer all the way from Butler to California, alleging that he (Greer) had ruined his home. Greer seerna to love the old soldier as he loves everybody else, for his vote alone and if the old soldiers of this county will compare notes we think they will corae to the conclusion that it is not to their best interest nor the best interests of this community that the trust now in the hands of J. M. Greer be allowed to remain there. WHKV the strongest snpporter of Charles the First heard that his King bad signed his death warrant he quoted the Hue "Put not your trust in Princes" —and now Quay's followers are learn ing to say "'P.it not your trust in Quay-" Quay'K Ingratitude. "It seems almost incredible that Sen ator Quay, whose strongest claim upon the affection* of the people is bis well known loyalty to bis friends, could be wheedled, badgered or bamboozeled Into a declaration against Elkiu. No doubt he is sincere in bis belief that it is best for the party, and that the decision was not reached without agony of spirit. But that is not the thing The illustra tion and vindication of the manly virtues of gratitude, friendship and fair play, are of more importance to human ity than the election of a Republican Governor. Attorney-General Elkin led the battle for Quay's re-election. In the darkest hour, when defeat seemed al most inevitable, he stood by his side like a Knight-errant of old, cheering him with words of confidence and hope, inspiring his friends to greater exer tions and bidding defiance to his ene mies. He took up the cause of the stal wart element in Pittsburg, and against his better judgment, any a vote of 190 to 105. THE LAW AND THE FACTS. In 1873 the people of this state voted themselves what was then* called the New Constitution, and in it the status of the Judiciary of the atate is clearly and fully define*!. , At the following session of the Legis lature a Judicial Apportionment bill was passed and signed by the Governor (April 8, 1874) making Bntler and Law rence counties the 17th Judicial District of the state; and that Fall, after a hot contest E. McJunkin, (Rep ) and James Bredin. (Dem.) were elected Judges of the district. They drew lots as provid ed by the Constitution, and McJunkin became President Judge of the district and Bredin Additional Law Judge. W close personal friends —just as we stated in our article enti tled "Some Political History." published March 20th, last. Mr. Bowser has told a number of men as to Greer's pledges to him; and since Greer became a candidate for re election has said: "I was taken over to Charley McCandless' office and the whole matter was talked over, and agreed upon, and all but put in writ ing." To Mr. Goucher, Greer made a plea of financial distress, and ssid that one term would relieve him, and that he would be satisfied with that. To Mr. Galbreath Greer pledged him self not to be a candidate again whether successful or defeated. All the promises and pledges made at that time were in regard to a term of ten years, and in view of these facts the following letter by Greer is of interest as (bowing the character of the man : BUTLER, PA., April 11th, 1902. Mr. J OB. C. HEPLEH, Ekastown. Pa Mtr DEAR SIR The Butler CIT IZEN in a late issue published an editor ial in which it alleges that when I was a candidate for Judge ten years ago I promised Mr. Galbreath and other can didates that I would not Vie in the field at the expiration of my term, if elected This statement is incorrect. I made no ] such promises. Mr. Galbreath came to me on the street one dav and said that he would a candidate, that he would let me have a clear field. I thanked him for it, and he turned to go away but turned and came back and said: "But how will it be should yon fail to get the" nomination in Lawrence county, or should not be elected this fall? Will you be a candidate in two years from now when JudgeHazen's term expires?" I promptly answered, "No, if I am not elected this time I will never be in the field again." Not one word was Maid about my being a candidate at the ex piration of my term, if elected, and no Gromises were made more favorable to Ir. Galbreath than to any other candl date We had two counties in >the district, Butler and Lawrence. Judge Hazen was President Jndge and the law com pelled him to reside in Butler Jndge McMichael had been the Assistant Law Judge and tbe law compelled the Assis tant Law Judge to reside in New Cas tie; therefore as I was taking the place of judge McMichael as the Assistant Law Judge, it became and was my duty to take up my residence in New Castle, Lawrence county. I could not have re mained in Butler county. Had there been no change of the law I would have been living In Lawrence county now, and it would not seem reasonable thai I would promifce not to be a candidate at tbe end of my term when I wonld be living in Lawrence county and Mr. Gal breath In Butler county. This itself contradicts any such allegation Moreover Mr. Galbreath has talked to me about our candidacy perhaps a doz en times and he never once said that I had made such a promise. Had such a promise been made by ine it would seem natural that Mr. Galbreath would have made some mention of it in these different conversations. Had 1 fail»d to be elected In 18W2 I certainly wonld not have been a candidate in two yearn thereafter or at any other time 1 write this to coreect the mis state ment published in the CITIZEN. It is not a good thing for a party or candi dates to have nowspajjer contests pre ceding nominations It weakens the ticket and injures the candi date nominated. This ought, not to la and therefore I take this way of reply ing and making a personal contradic tion of the statements published in the newspapers. Respectfully yours, JOHN M. GKKER. Greer took his seat on the firat Mon day of January, 1 HOIi, and for a few months passed part of his time in New Castle, and then as "Little Lawrence" had acquired a population of 40,000, and was entitled, under the Conatitu tion, to be made a separate district the Legislature passed an aK to that effect, assigning Greer to Butler county and flszen to Lawrence county (act of April 2ft, 1803) -all of which had been taken into consideration previous to the elec tion— and even if the law had not been changed Greer would have become President Judge by virtue of priority of commission when Judge Hazen'a term expired in 1804. The other point that Greer makes that Mr, Galbrcath never mentioned the matter is somewhat amusing. Gal breath probably sized up his man lietter than to take any chances of bMng told to "shiriter for himself," and besides that it is rather impolitic for a lawyer to remind the Judge t.hat he is practic ing under that he (thu Judge) is acting dishonorably. As to "newspaper contents preceding nominations," that Is tbe proper time for them, no true party man will wnit until after an unfit man has iwen foist ed upon his party as its 'nominee to tell the trnth alsjnt him. That should be done in time to prevent a nomination that will weaken the whole ticket. Thin two-year, Lawrence county, bngal>oo of (Jreer * in, we believe, an after thought, a mibterfuge, a lately concaUed idea, a fiction of hi* imagina tiou -to which a hartther term IH tiHiial ly applied JOHN EL»KJN received a tremendonx ovaiion from bin neiKhbom when he ar rived at hid hotne town of Indiana, hint week; and he and hi* friend* ow the Htate are making ready to raise the "fiery cro*ne«" and don the "bloody blonaea" that John wore in aer vice for many a year. POLITICAL. • You can quote me as saying that Mr. Elkin will not be nominated for governor.' This was Senator s emphatic statement at Washington, Monday : night, in answer to an inquiry as lo whether the declaration of various state officials that they would "sink or swim with the attorney general improved Elkin's chances for the nomination. At the district convention in Luzerne Co . Monday. Elkin"s friends had every thing their own way and secured several delegates for their favorite for Gover nor. At the Wilkes Barre convention, when the ballot was counted it was : found that the Elkin candidates had 26 votes to their opponents' 24 The result was received with the greatest enthusi -1 asm by the Elkin forces, who threw J their hats in the air and cheered until they were hoarse. | Where is Quay now':" yelled many jin the hall. The local supporters of j Elkin sent him many congratulatory I telegrams j On Tuesday, Durham, the Philadel ' phia boss wired from Hot Springs. Va. J ' Every man in the Philadelphia delega- I tion will be against Elkin." j ' But the most serious feature of the | situation now is the strong disposition i by the Elkin men to open fire on Sena j tor Penrose and to take the ground that j if Elkin is to sink instead of swimming, j Penrose shall sink with him. In view of the reason given out that Elkin had I to be sacrificed in order to "save" Pen rose. the present turn in affairs has made a break in the stalwart lines much more ngly than Quay himself seems to -have calculated on as a consequence bf the threat "throw down."—Philadelphia Bulletin. "Sibley,the Spectacular" was reported yesterday, to be Quay's favorite for Governor. A FEW weeks ago we published a plain statement of the circumstances leading up to Greer's nomination and election ten years ago; naming the men from whom we received our information which, of itself, challenged public deni • „ The ex-Prohibition organ of the boun ty in its issue of the following week de scribed this article as "an editorial ti rade of personal abuse." and last week the funny fellow who publishes the Free port Jonrnal called it a "column of slimy Billingsgate.'' Such language as thiH towards a plain strteinent of facts, void of all personal abuse, makes us wonder where Greer and his friends will go to for adjectives and strong language provided some facts about him which the public should know, are published.
