The following is clipped from a ! paper giving a report of ti meeting ' of the Democratic State Committee, : held at Ilarrisburg July IV, 1907: "At the suggestion of W. S. ; Brennen, of Allaganey, the ehtiir (man will fix a «lav in August i when in avery town tn the state a : meeting will be held at which there i will be addresses by speakers on the : text 'Thou shalt not steal' with ref- I erenoe to the new Capitol disclos j ures." This is a new departure for the modern saints of democracy. It would indicate that they have just become acquainted the Eighth Com mandment. When the democrats starts out as evangelists, to condemn every one but themselves, and assert their own purity and political self, righteousness, they should not for get that other Commandment: "Neither shalt thou bear false wit against thy neighbor," and also that thero is another biblical injuction„ procktmed by Him who spoke as one having authority when on earth which is, "Judge not that ye be not judged." Have our democratic friends, who as a party have not changed their | ways, forgotten when Howell Cobb, ; Seiretary of the Treasury, and John I Buchanan Floyd, .Secretary of War | under the administration of James Buchanan, how they plotted treason against the government and deplet ed the treasury of the United States ot $850,n00, robbed the arsinals of their arms aud amunitious of war, shipped them into the South, and scattered the army and what little navy we had to the four coiners of the earth and then joined in open re bellion against the government and tried to destroy it? Ilave those mod< rn saints forgot ten the balmy days of the Canal Commission in this State, when everything was controlled by the democratic party and the real estate of the fanner and mechanic taxed for state pur|<oses, and the political atmosphere was rank with the al leged graft instate administration and that of the public 'works? Have they forgotten the remark able exposure of Tamany Hall, New York, under the regime of Boss Tweed, a democratic organization that controlled the city and state, and was also shown to bean organi /ation that fattened and grew rich upon graft, plunder and organized theft? Have our modern democratic saints ever been known to shout in tne case of Cobb and Floyd, and that of Tamany Hall, "Thou shalt not steal?" Oh, no! We presume that at that time they were ignorant of the existence of the Kighth Com mandment. On the contrary, they have always justified and defended the actions of Cobb and Floyd and Tamany Hall, and have never apolo gized for such notorious actions per petrated by democratic leaders and democratic organizations. Surely, when the democratic evangelists bombard every town in the state in the midst of dog days, they should not overlook the latter injunction, "Judge not, that ye may not be judged," and - the command ment,"Bear not false witness against thy neighbor." The republican party and those in authority are neither defending nor apologizing for the Huston and San dersons, or any one else who appar ently conspired to defraud the state. A Republican Legislature appointed a commissioner to investigate the frauds and make ample appropria tion to enable the committee to ferret out the wrong and guilty partie*. A Republican Governor is pledged to leave no guilty man es cape, and he keeps his pledges. No prominent or influential republican who is efficient and active in the organization or who aids in shaping its politics, has thus fur been tainted with graft. The Hustons and San dersons were not active republicans but a few years ago were proclaim ing their self-political righteousness and doing what they could to aid the "Thou shalt not steal" democrats into power. Our candidate for state treasurer, , Hon. John O. Sheatz, is a most cap able, honest and upright man. He has been tried in public life aud lias | been in the limelight, aud has stood i the test with honor and integrity. ' No republican should allow himself | to be duped or deceived into voting j the democratic slogan "Thou shalt I not steal," and thus on the eve of I presidential election do that which | would be a reflection upon President i Roosevelt's adminstration and would be heralded as the"repudiation of th candidacy of Senator Knox as Penn sylvania's choice for the presidency.
