Champion of Public Schools.
Prr bibly no other act in the official
career of .Mr. Sheatz eontiibuted more
to his popularity than his advocacy of
liicrerv ed appropriations to the pub
is • schools. As chairman of the ap
propratlon committee of the house of
vepre :c .ntatives. Mr. Sheatz made a
v Mcnt and successful fight In favor
of raiding the already large sums ap
•■■ •.-.ted to education, and in his
. i?i to the various counties in his
p e ~t tour .Mr. Sheatz has been com
p. ■'!'. ;-.ted upon the result of his labors
«■ Uavrisburg in this direction.
The Republican party of Pennsylva
nia h»* a grind record in its fostering
ii: i protecting influence in the cause
oi the common schools.
T, e statistics show that since 1887
ti-.e enormous sum of $i 19.100.000 has
b ''. li appropriated by Pennsylvania
l'-j.'\;-'iatureß dominated by the Republi
can party, an amount many times
larg;r then that appropriated for like
purposes by any state in the Union
for public school purposes.
The appropriation for the years 1887-
fi was $2,000,000; for 18S9 90 it was
$4,000,000, and for each two years from
that time until this year, with one ex
ec; t:rn, the appropriation was $11,000,-
GoO, the exception being in 1902-01,
when the aeiount was $10,000,000.
When the legislature met this year
Mr Sheatz was among the potential
factors in a movement to provide even
mere liberally for the schools, and with
the hearty co-operation of the influen
tial leaders of the Republican party
this agitation was a fruitful one. The
stun of $4,000,000 was added to the
state school fund, raising the grand to
iui to the unprecedented appropriation
of $15,000,000 for t,ce next two years.
'! his ar . nt does not Include the $6,-
600,000 ..e_.ally set aside for school
purposes from the local taxes collected
in the < of Philadelphia, nor the
large amounts raised locally In other
counties
The money included in the state ap
propriation to the schools is allotted
to the different counties in proportion
to the number of children of school
ua»', each county receiving its pro ra»a
share. In nearly all of the rountles
the amount received from the slate has
poved amply sufficient to meet all of
the reoulrements of the public schools.
so that In such cases It is not necessary
to apply any of ths monay received
from ltir;'.l tasatlon.
"I waut to see the day." said Mr.
Shvatz a few nights a?:o, "when the
state will provide every penny of the
money needed for educational pur
poses. The aim of the Republican
party has been in that direction. and
i know that the continued success of
Repuolicanlsm in Pennsylvania means
the accomplishment of that end *
"I shall certainly continue to do all
la my power to have ample money ap
propriated to place the public schools
of our state upon a aolid and practical
baela In every rousty of the state."
"GET OUTJE VOTE"
Tht Veteran "Undo Tom"Coop«r
Calls Up«ti"th« Old Guard."
k WARNING TO WORKERS
Governor Stuart Pay Another High
Tribute te the Republican Nominee
Per State Treaeurer, John O.
SheeU.
[Special Correepondeace.]
Philadelphia. Oct M.
"Uncle Teat" Cooper, the sage of
Media, asd for maay years the Re
publican Held marshal of the Key
stone atate, has issued a call te araa
for the "Old Guard" of Pemaylvanla
Republicanism te come out and vote
(or John O. Sheata, the aomlaee for
state treasurer at the approaehlag
election.
For nearly 10 years "Uncle Tom"
was at the head of the Republican
state committee. He haa (one through
many a political campaign, and
whether is victory or defeat, he al
ways bobs tip smiling and ready togo
at Xiis old-time foe, the Dcsaooracy,
with all the vehemence asd ardor of
his nature.
"John O. Sheata la going to be elect
ed state treasurer, becauae he de
serves to be elected," said the peren
nial Cooper today. "He la an Ideal
Republican candidate, and la entitled
to the vote of every Republican In
the state. He aeeda no piatferm la
this campaign hut hta own persenality
R.Md hi 4 own record In public and pri
vate life. I served with him Is the
legislature and know hie character
and his work. I also know that he Is
a typical Pennsylvanlan and that he
will allow nothing to Interfere with a
faithful and conscientloua perform
ance of his official duties. No one
could get him to vote for a bill Is the
legislature that he did net believe was
In the intereat of the people. I ksow
the influences that were brought to
bear upon him to do otherwlee, and I
was there when ha boldly, time and
again, voted NO' when the roll was
called upon such measures. We want
men of that stripe in the office of
state treasurer.
Warning te Party Men.
"There la ]ust a word I have to
say to the men in the party orgaalca
tlon In the various countlea of the
state. Do not be fooled. The Demo
crats are wide-awake and are going to
get out their vote. The independent
movements have gone to amaah, but
the old time Democratic enemy is still
doing business at the old stand and
will be at he polls on election day.
No one, of courae, looks for Mr.
Bli««ii's defeat, hut It It Just such
conditions as exist today that have
cost the Republican party dearly In
the. -The Republican vote muet
be c t tot : polle.
"Taking it for granted that 'every
thing Is all right' haa been the undo-
Ins? of ronny a party leader. What we
want at the coming election la the
greatest possible percentage of the
vote put Into the ballot boxes, and
then we will be able to celebrate a
victory of which every Republican can
be i>iou<l. and which will put the
party in this state In full strength
t'pon th<! firing line for the presiden
tial battle of next year.
"Oct out the vete; get cut the vote:
get out the vote."
Probably no man in Pennsylvania
Is taking a keener Intereat in tbe can
vssa for the election of Mr. Sheati
than la Edwin 8. Stuart.
The governor was Intensely gratified
when Mr. Sheats received the nomi
nation, and he was quick to give a
cordial indorsement of tbe actios of
the convention
Governor Stuart'a Advice.
The governor la Just now busy with
his attorney general la preparing the
atate capitol caaea for trial. He dees
not neglect, however, upon any proper
occasion, to urge the election of Mr.
Sheata.
While hta official duties would sot
permit him to attend the great Repub
lican rally In Pittsburg on Saturday
evening laat, Governor Stuart seat a
ringing letter, which waa read at the
meeting, advocating the election of
the Republican aomlaee for atate
treaaurer.
In thle letter. Governor Stuart,
among other things, said:
"t regret that an Important
