NO DICTATION
Clearly Sets Forth tlie Program of Leg
islation to Which He Is Plod god If
Chosen As the Chief Executive of
State
This morning Dr. Brumbaugh issued
his final statement to the people of the .
State. In it he said in part:
'•To the voters of Pennsylvania: The
tumpaign ' s over. The issue is with von.
I have been in all sections of the State,
have met thousands upon thousands of
our people and hav e talked freely,
frankly and earnestlv upon the issues
in the campaign. 1 have not descended
to personal abuse, to slander, to mis
representation, to defamation of char
acter. Some people will live to be heart
ily ashamed of the unwarranted abuse
injected into this contest. J have not
said a thing to win otiiee that 1 will not.
do if placed in oflice. 1 am confident of
a triumphant election, because the right
will assuredly win. It has been inv
steadfast purpose to behave seemly at
all times, and I -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 T have conducted
will leave, I hope, iu the hearts of the
people a sincere love and appreciation •
of this great commonwealth.
Conservation of Life
"With all the energy at my com- I
man I 1 have urged the conservation of
human life in Pennsylvania. I ha\o
stood and do stand for the most ad
vanced program of social and moral
service that any one can reasonable
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 arc the following: Work
men's compensation act, advanced em
ployers' liability act, better child labor
Jaws and more humane provisions for
women who toil in our industries. It
also includes the enactment of a law
permitting the people in each countv to
decide for themselves whether or'not
licenses shall be issued for the sale of
intoxicating liquors, a corrnpt practices
act-, the submission of the question of
woman suffrage to the people in the
form of an amendment to our Constitu
tion, and such added elements of rem
edial legislation as will adequately and'
safely conserve the welfare of our'armv
of toilers, whether men, women or chii
dren.
"I have also advocated larger sup.
) port to our great school system and tli«
; extension of its curricula to include
| a practical training in the great indus-
I tries of our State, including agricul
! ture.
"We must have better conditions on
| our farms. We must make it pav in dol-
I lars and in social and educational serv-
I ice to stay 011 the soil. We need many
I niore food growers in Pennsylvania. We
cannot do too much to conserve the
j rural life of the State,
j "Good roads, honestly huilt, well
, graded, crowned and drained and placed
! under the constant care of men trained ,
! for the purpose, are a vital need of the
I State. I shall assuredly so handle this
problem as to meet the needs of our
' P eo P ie ai >d to satisfy all reasonable
persons that the road problem of Penn
sylvania is in the care of men entirely
1 competent and satisfactory, not only to
me, but to th'e people at large.
Will Brook No Dictation
"We must be generous to our cliari
: ties; wc must also be just to them.
Hasty and unscientific appropriations
1 shall not escape niv veto. It must be
understood now, not later on, thi'at, i
I stand for absolutely fair, just a»<B im
i partial use of the public funds,J and
will brook no dictation or suggestion
i that will in any degree change in\r firm
' resolution to manage the affairs of the
' State in a way that will reflect thi . best
| business capacity and the highest, per
-1 sonal character of our people.
"It remains to add that having lived
as I have talked, having done no un
j charitable deed to auy one iu Pe lnsyl
vania, having given my life gladly and
1 freely for the intellectual and moral
uplit'e of the people of Pennsylvania I
I pledge myself to a clean, capable and
j conscientious performance of m/v pub
lic dnties, and ask each voter fto put
| his conscience into his ballot oih Tues
