Philadelphia, Oct. 10. j
With the roasli ler.iwved train the so- j
: ...l! reform party in this city. lie-,
j.. iii< ans everywhere cannot but be I
■,. isted villi the revelations of hy- |
i »«• risv. trench; rv and deceit, and tiny i
going to tlu polls to east an em- 1
;. ,:itic vote ol" condemnation of the
new political combine which is seek- j
i.to wreck the Republican party in >
Philadelphia.
Mayor Weaver is no longer taken 1
s> riousiy in his public statements an.l j
i, » has ceased to have the respect of 1
i Li ii who nre familiar with the politi- :
• a! intrigue which lias been under way ,
: this city since Weaver deserted the j
R 'publican colors anil took his entire ,
administration over to the Wanamaker- !
Clli r lon-Van \ alkeubun; camp, which j
! as for years been the refuge of in- !
saigents and party traitors of all
classes and conditions.
A Deep Laid Scheme.
The City Party which was started I
tv some well-meaning citizens, who j
were sincerely desirious of reform, has ;
li 'i'n captured by the Wanamaker- j
c n ilon-Van V'alkenburg combine, and i
it no longer stands for anything which
lis original promoters contemplated,
l ike the Lincoln Party in the state,
the City Party has become an asset of i
V.'anr.makerism and Is being used in :
a do.:;iurate campaign to disrupt the .
If publican party to further the game j
w ,ieii ihe Wanamaker politicians have
in mind for the future.
lames Gay Gordon, Democrat, for
governor, and John Wanamaker. of
doubtful political standing, for United j
Slates senator, is the program on the j
cards of the men who are manipulat- j
lag the City Party in this city and the
l.incoln Party in Pennsylvania.
As in previous campaigns when the j
Republican party was attacked in the j
i ar hy Wanamaker guerrillas and at- i
t; mpts were made to defeat good Re- !
publicans, regularly and honestly ni m
inateil in accordance with the rules j
and r illations of the party, the rank ;
and file of the Republican organization i
stand true and steadfast and are pre- j
pared to bent back the insurgent crew j
to defeat and dismay at the coming
election.
In the other Wanamaker campaigns J
the Republican party was confronted j
with the most lavish expenditure of I
money to promote dissenrion and dis- j
cord in its ranks and to strengthen j
the Di mocratic allies of these insur- ;
gents.
Public Opinion Is Defied.
On every hand there is seen today |
the some evidence of the use of money j
to fiii i'.er the schemes of the men who j
are striving to defeat the Republican j
candidates, but there is now the addi- j
tionai power of the Weaver adminls- ]
nation being exerted with a most fla- !
;;rant disregard of public pledges of j
reform and a most, defiant spirit of in
difference to popular sentiment.
"The full power of my administra- j
tion" are the words that come to tlie i
lips of every Republican citizen of I
the Quaker City when he reads of the ,
disgraceful exhibitions of police and !
firemen engaged in political work and j
ii culls the sensational speech made j
by Ma yor Weaver when, In addressing i
a mass meeting in the South Broad j
Street Theatre, he announced that he ;
had deserted the Republican party, :
and that "the full power of my admin- !
istration" would lie arrayed against j
the candidates on the Republican i
ticket.
Since then Mayor Weaver has spent j
much time with former Judge Gordon, j
Democrat, and K A Van Valkenburg, j
Wanamaker's political manager in ;
Wanamaker's Nortji American build- !
In?, fn consultation regarding the use
of the "power of my administration" \
to servo the ends of WanamaUerism
Gordon and Van Valkenburg are
Weaver's most regular callers at his j
public office it is an open secret that
former Judge flordon is the political
dicta! :>r of ihe Weaver administration,
anil that what lie says "goes "
Cordon a Reckless Politician.
With that recklessness which has !
chars- terlz<>d Judge Gordon's career,
both while on and off the bench, the
Weaver administration is today amaz
ing and startling Ihe citizens of Phlla
delphia with the daring and boldness
* uf its actions.
Orders are being issued to the p«
ii enien over the lieutenants' desks
in ti e police station houses for them i
to turn in against the Republican

Policemen are being used to canvass
1 rlection precincts against ; he Republl
! ian ticket. They are detailed in full
i uniform to deliver calls for these meet
ings to the other city employes.
Policemen are employed in the dis
tribution of campaign buttons for the
I City Pnrtv, and the police patrol wag
! on - are used to deliver boxes of these
buttons.
Cabinet Officer Issues Orders.
A member of the mayor's cabinet,
j Dim :or Shoyer, nightly makes hir;
headquarters in the police station house
I in the Nineteenth ward and gives in
, ;tructiohS to Republicans employed un-
I der the city administration to work
! and vote for the City Party ticket.
City employes in every department
j of the Weaver administration are be
ins assessed to defray the expenses ol
| the City Party campaign
Where Republican oflice holders un
' der the mayor refuse either to work
i for the City Party ticket or give part
' of their wages togo into its treasury,
they are discharged without furthei
: notice.
While the Republicans who are so
• unfortunate as to hold" place undet
i Ma.vot Weaver are being intimidate i
| and terrorized in the campaign to
| v. reel; the Republican organization in
I the Interest of Wanamakerlsm, the
| Wanamaker owned and controlled ot
j su'. idized newspapers are directing
j their batteries, as usual. a;;ainst every
i man who has tiie courage to disregard
! their attacks and speak in favor o 1
the Republican ticket.
Never in the history of Philadelphia
has there been such a damnable condi
| ; ion of affairs from a journalistic stand-
I point.
Wanamaker Interests dominate and
! lOi.trol the Democratic Philadelphia
j Record; Wanamaker's son, "Tom."
i owns the North American, and Wana
maker's son-in-law. Wharburton, owns
i the Philadelphia Evening Telegraph.
The Philadelphia Press, which foi
! years followed Wanomnker in his in
! surgent political campaigning when
! Wanamaker sought to obtain the seal
! occupied by the late Matthew Stanley
| Quay in the Untied States senate, and
| also tried to become t'nlted States scn-
I ator when Penrose was first elected, is
! Train lined up with the guerillas and
1 is fighting the Republican candidates
! with what little influence it has left,
j A Newspaper Trust's "Hold Up."
The remarkable spectacle is present-
I ed in Republican Philadelphia of the
I candidates on the Pe publican ticket
| being compelled to pay, at advertising
; rates, for the publication of their let
, ters of acceptance of the nominations
of the Republican party.
I To get tiie most ordinary mentiou of
I matters of interest to R' publicans in
I the subsidized or Wanamaker con
; trolled or owned newspapers, it is nec-
I ersary togo with ca:-h to the business
j office of the papers.
A number of leading manufacturers
arid business men have subscribed a
| fund to meet this extraordinary ex
pense of the campaign for the Republi
i <xn ticket. These newspapers, which
| are suppressing news of interest to Re
i publicans and which would bo calcu-
I lnt"d to aid tiie Republican cause, are
j opposing the Republican state ticket
r.s wll as the local candidate s.
' They are suppressing the news re
| garding the police in politics and the
i firemen in polities,
j They are distorting the facts in every
i matter in wlm h Mayor Weaver is eon-
I cerr.ed so as to play him up in the
| light of a great reformer and public
I benefactor.
i They opposed the legislation befor
j councils calling for the deepening of
J the Delaware river channel, while May-
I or Weaver opposed it. Owing to the
j firm and positive stand of the Rep-.ib
i lienn leaders and councilmen. this prop
j osition finally passed councils, and
: Weaver finally felt obliged to sign the
| bill which he sought to defeat. Tlr-se
! newspapers then gave the credit to the
! mayor, whereas he wns absolutely en
' titled to none, for it was th' Itepublt
j can leaders who made this condition of
; affairs possible,
1 These newspapers are now trying to
make it apuenr that Mayor Weaver is
! to be congratulated and thanked h\
the citizens who fought for th • aboli
tion of grade crossings, wher as he
! should be denounced for his hos'illty
to the ordinance which was p.: ,sed hy
councils and which he vetoed.
