Republicans Are Proud of Man
aeoient of State Treasury.
BOOKS OPEN TO THE PEOPLf.
Senator Penrcse Shows How the
Money It Protected, and That the
State Is Practically Out of Debt
at the Present Time.
Republicans of Pennsylvania hare
every reason to be proud of the record
of their party In the management of
the finances of the state.
No other commonwealth In the Un
ion can make a better showing.
In the present campaign, although
there is a state treasurer to elect,
there has not been a single charge
made upon the stump or In hostile
newspapers affecting the Integrity or
the capacity of the present Btate treas
urer, or of any of his assistants.
United States Senator Boieg Pen
rose, in reviewing the record of the
I Republican party administration of
the state finances, a few days ago,
ia,i:
Tho voters of Pennsylvania will be
called upon to elect a Btate treasurer
at the approaching election. For sev
eral years the state treasury ha been
conducted by a Republican, and the
management of it has been bitterly
assailed throughout the length and
breadth of the state. Being the cus
todlan of the public, funds, the state
treasurer has been peculiarly the tar
get of abuse.
"Notwithstanding the innumerable
charges brought against tho manage
ment of the state treasury, particular
ly in recent years, the Republicans
have gone on electing the state treas
urer by Increasing majorities, and now
the Republican party presents to the
voters of the state a distinguished
Republican. Hon. Frank G. Harris, a
member of the state house of repre
sentatives from Clearfield county, in
the full confidence that he will be
elected.
"it is true that in this campaign the
abuse and misrepresentation concern
ing the management of the state treas
ury has not been as violent as in cam
paigns immediately preceding. Other
weapons have been taken up from the
Junk shop to do duty In this contest,
and municipal abuses and evils con
stitute tho chief features of the as
sault upon the Republican nominees.
At the same time the attack on the
management of the state treasury la

what is meant by taking the lid off Is
hard to understand.
"Any responsible cltiien can go
into the office of the state treasurer
and ascertain the exact atatus of the
public receipts and disbursements.
"All taxes are paid directly to the
state treasurer, and be must account
for them every day; in fact there is a

general before being sent to the party
making the payment, and the receipts
of the day in the treasury must bal
ance with the records in the auditor
general's department.
"The auditor general Is an officer
entirely Independent of the state
treasurer, elected by the people, and
is as absolutely a check upon the
state treasurer as it Is possible to
Imagine.
STATE NEVER LOST A PENNY.
"In the history of Pennsylvania
THE STATE HAS PRACTICALLY
NEVER LOST ONE PENNY FROM
ANY DEFALCATION IN THE STATE
TREASURER'S OFFICE OR BY THE
FAILURE OF A BANK.
"It is true that the state did once
lose about $6,000 from some failure
of a local depository, and for certain
technical reasons the state could not
recover the amount, but this exception
Is the only one In the history of the
state.
"Under the administration of State
Treasurers Bailey, Livsey, Boyer and

1 HE TREASURER MADE THE LOSS
GOOD.
"Under a recent act of the legisla
ture Interest Is exacted on all state
deposits from the banks, and a bond
is required from a!l depositories so
that now the s..e is still further se
cured from any possibility of loss. It
s doubtful If tl is another state
in the Union of which this statement
ran be made that no money has ever
bean lost by the state in the manage
ment of the office of the state treas- ;
urer.
"A remarkable feature of the man
agement of the state treasury of Penn
sylvania Is that the enormous work
of the department is conducted by a
very email force of employes. In
other words, the work of receiving
and disbursing about $17,000,000 every
year, entering the recelpta and pay
ments upon the books, making month
ly and itemized annual reports, ex
amining, verifying and approving all
settlements made by the auditor gen
eral, keeping a debit and credit ac
count with all corporations and coun
ty officials, with the necessary cor
respondence of the department, is
done by eight employes of the state.
There is not a bank in the Btate do
ing the business of the state treasury
, that does not have at least twice the
, number of employes, and possibly
more.
"The office of the state treasurer
j was never more efficiently adminis
tered than it has been under the man
agement of tho present state treas-
urer, Colonel James E. Barnett He
came into the department fresh from
his military campaign in Manila as
lieutenant colonel of the Tenth regl-
ment. and he has brought the atate
treasury up to the highest standard it
has attained In years.
NO DELAY IN PAYMENTS.
"The balance In the general fund
of tho state of Pennsylvania this night
is $C,G90,936.27. For several yeara
complaint has been made as to the
delay In tho payment of the appro
priations to the common school dls
, trlcts. This delay has arisen from
j various causes, but It does not occur
1 this year. The state treasurer can
well feel proud In tho declaration that
about 2,250 of the 2,500 common school
districts throughout the state have
been paid their appropriation In full,
and it Is expected that less than 60
will remain unpaid at the close of
the present year.
"No part of the appropriation has
been paid to Philadelphia or Pitts
burg, it Is true, but payments will be
gin to these two counties not later
than next week. It is no exaggera
tion to say that NEVER IN THE HIS
TORY OF THE STATE HAS THE
APPROPRIATION nTO
LY AS THIS.
COMMON
'The payments this
year will be
made nearly three months in advance
of last year.
"What other state can compare with
Pennsylvania in this respect T Con
siderable over 64 per cent, of the
state revenues are appropriated for
the purposes of public education, a
proportion of the public revenue far
In excess of that applied by any other
state to a similar purpose, most of
them appropriating only 10, IS or 20
per cent., and many a much lees
amount. Further than this, the pay
ments to various charitable and other
Institutions throughout the etate for
the quarter Just ended have been met
and paid.
"I might refer to other obligations
and payments required of the state,
but I have cited sufficient instances
to show that the state treasurer has
fully kept up with alt the obligations
of the state government The per
sonal property tax haa been returned
to the counties paying the same with
out any delay, when it is paid by draft
or certified check. When paid by pri
vate check payment is usually with
held for a period of some ten days In
order to give the state depository the
necessary time to present the same
to the bank on which it is drawn for
payment.
"In the case of Philadelphia the
state treasurer paid to the county $1,
S11,01S.60 on September 5, 1901, and
on the 9th of September the warrant
for tho full amount of the three
fourths, amounting to $908,161.61. The
state of Pennsylvania imposes these
taxes upon the great corporations of
the state and returns from her cof
fers the generous proportion of three
fourths of the amount received to the
I various counties for the relief of local
taxation.
PRACTICALLY OUT OF DEBT.
"The remarkable assertion can be
made of Pennsylvania that the state
Is today practically out of debt. The
total bonded indebtedneas of the atate j
Is $6,701, 655.10. If we add relief loans
of t$41, Interest certificates unclaimed
and outstanding and a amall item to
domestic creditors, we have a total
debt of $6,815,290.02. If we deduct
from this the United States bonds,
certain railroad bonds. Interest due on
bonds and Interest due from banks
on sinking fund deposits, together
with cash In the state depositories be
longing to the sinking fund, we have
left a net debt of $507,338.62.
"Of this amount $113,643.92 is made
up of claims that the state will never
be likely to be called upon to pay, as
they consist of Items very largely
which have been carried on the books
for many years. Deducting, therefore,
this amount from the net debt, would
leave the Inconsiderable sum of $393,
694.74 as the debt of the state of Penn
sylvania. "What other state can point to a
better or even to an equal record?
"The state of Pennsylvania has
never lost a dollar in its treasury
management, and is practically out of
debt, and extenda a more generous
provision than any other state in the
Union for educational, charitable and
elemosynary purposes. In the midst
af detraction and misrepresentation
we have a right to point with pride to
this splendid record and to feel con
fident that our candidate for etate
treasurer will be elected by a great
QUAY RECOGNIZED
BY PRESIDENT
Mr. Roosevelt Turns Down
York's Insurgent Candi
date for Postmaster.
"Pennsylvania Republicans In Wash
ington who are adherents of Senator
Quay and the regular organization are
delighted with President Roosevelt's
action in appointing Augustus
Loucks postmaster at York," aays a
special dispatch from Washington to
the Philadelphia Inquirer. "In doing
so, the President turned down A. L.
Strayer, a pronounced Insurgent, and
demonstrated beyond doubt the fact
that he has no sympathy with mongrel
vellow nolltlcs.
"The fight was a square contest be-
twean Senator Quay, representing the
party organization, and Postmaster
General Charles Emory Smith, repre
senting the Insurgents. When Robert
J. Lewis was elected congressman from
the hitherto Democratic York-Adams
dlsrlct last fall he presented to Presi
dent McKlnley Mr. Loucks' name for
postmaster at York to succeed David
A. Mlnnlck. Democrat, whose term ex
pired January 18 last.
"Mr. Loucks, like Representative
Lewis, Is a strong Quay man In poli
tics. The Insurgents of York imme
diately started to oppose his selection.
Dr. James A. Dale, the anti-Quay lead
er, brought out A. L. Strayer for the
place, end had no difficulty in advo
cate the latter's appointment.
"Mr. Smith used every influence with
the late President McKlnley in iitray
er's behalf, but the late executive had
made it a rule to permit Republican
congressmen to control such appoint
ments in their districts. He would not
break this rule nor did he desire to
wound the feelings of one of his cab
inet members, so that for months the
appointment was hung up. About two
months ago Representative Lewis went
to Canton to see President McKlnley
and secured from the latter a letter
ordering the appointment of Loucks.
Representative Lewis called upon the
poet nwiV took office and preset dent
letter from Mr. McKlnley. StUl the
i postmaster general tried to hold the
appointment back. About tea days
ago Senator Quay came to Washing
ton and called upon the President. It
was then announced In a Washington
dispatch to The Inquirer that Mr.
Roosevelt would recognize party reg
ularity in making appointments. The
truth of this dispatch was promptly
denied by the insurgent newspapers,
including the official organ of the post
master general.
"Last Wednesday Mr. Lewis came to
Washington and went direct to the
White House, where he had a confer
ence with President Roosevelt. About
the same time Postmaster General
Smith arrived, and the whole matter
was gone over before the President.
Mr. Roosevelt agreed to the wishes of
Representative Lewis, and told him
that Loucks would receive the appoint
ment. "The contest was really the first test
of strength between the regulars and
the insurgents of Pennsylvania with
President Roosevelt's administration,
and resulted in a square turn-down
for the insurgents, a clean victory for
theQuayltes and the personal humilia
tion of the factional postmaster gen
eral." ROOSEVELT 18 INTERESTED
The President Anxious to Have
Sweeping Republican Victories
Next Month.
"A dispatch from Washington says
President Roosevelt Is particularly '
anxious to see sweeping Republican '
victories In all the states holding elec
tions this fall, as It will be regarded ,
as a vote of confidence In his admin
istration," declares the editor of the
Doyleatown Republican. "The dis
patch further declares that the Presi
dent will feel that he is materially
strengthened in his purpose to give
the people a clean, prosperous and j
businesslike administration on McKln
ley lines If he knows that he has pop
ular support, and adds that he and
his most Influential advisers will be
happy If all opponents of the party
everywhere are burled next November
beneath an avalanche of Republican
ballots. The President's views on this
subject ought to appeal to every Re
publican. As stated In this column
the other day, President Roosevelt is
a strong partisan, but none the less
the foe of official corruption. He stands
just where every upright and consci
entious citizen must stand with rela
tion to that which is evil, but he be
Ilevesaparty should purify Itself with
out abandoning Its principles by en
dorsing the candidates of some other
party. And do not reason and com
mon sense dictate this policy? What
followed tho election of Governor Pat
tison in. this state? Was the party
purified? According to those arrayed
against it in this campaign it was nev
er so corrupt as at present. And what
are they going to do if they elect Dem
ocrats? Will they continue to elect
them? If not, why not keep their own
party In power and begin the purify
ing process at the primaries and
ventleas."
LABOR AGAINST YERKES
ofkingmen OppOBS DemOOTatfo
Nominee for Supreme Court.
THEY MEET AND TAKE ACTION
Labor Organizations In Philadelphia,
Pittsburg and Elsewhere Go On
Record Against the Candidacy of
Judge Yerkes.
It has about dawned upon the Dem
ocratic leaders that they made a grave
mistake when they nominated Judge
Yerkes for Justice of the supreme court.
They have discovered that he Is be
ing bitterly opposed by organized labor
throughout the state, and that many
thousands of Democrats propose to cut
blm on election day.
Yerkes has been scored by labor lead
ers in every county in the common
wealth, and the public action taken
by the Central Labor Union of Phila
delphia last week, in calling upon
worklngmen to vote against him slm-
ply opened the eyes of the Democratic
leaders to what they are up against.
It is recalled that when the late
William M. Singerly was a candidate
for governor, there waa a secret or
arnnlKntlnn of organized labor which
when the polls were closed, demon
strated the fact that they had gotten
many thousands of Democrats to vote
against their party's candidate simply !
because of his hostility to the typo
graphical union. Singerly never knew
what hit him until he began to analyze
the returns and he found that in the
district where the labor vote was
strong he ran away behind his col
league on the Democratic ticket.
The labor leaders say they thought
the Democratic party had been given
a lesson and that It would never again
place upon Its ticket a candidate whose
election was opposed by the working
men. Throughout Schuylkill, Luzerne,
Lackawanna, Westmoreland, Lawrence,
Fayette, Dauphin, Allegheny and other
counties where organized labor is
strong, the word has been passed to
1 enlighten the worklngmen as to the
opposition of Judge Yerkes.
PHILADELPHIA WORKINOMEN

Judge Yerkes will vote for his oppo
nent, Justice Potter, the Republican
nominee.
The Central Labor union of the
Quaker City Includes the great allied
building trades, including the carpen
ters, the painters, bricklayers and
ether mechanics, nearly every one of
whom Is a qualified voter.
At a meeting last Saturday night
of the Political Labor union in Moor
head Hall, Pittsburg, resolutions were
adopted condemning Judge Harman
Yerkes as an enemy to organized labor.
The statement recalls the fact that
Judge Yerkes sentenced rioters during
the traction strike of 1896 to the peni
tentiary, the sentences being regarded
as the severest ever imposed under
such circumstances. The final clause
of the resolution follows:
"Resolved, That we call on the work
ing classes all over the state, independ
ent of affiliations, to vote for Mr. Pot
ter and thereby secure for the state
bench a man of broad views, of ad
vanced Ideas, and a man who is thor
oughly In touch with the Interest of
labor as well as capital; a man who
will strain every effort in the behalf of
an advanced and honest government."
Evan Lloyd is president and William
P. Purdon Is secretary of the Political
Labor union of Allegheny county.
PROTEST FROM READING.
The Reading Labor Advocate, a
newspaper published by worklngmen
and the organ of organised labor, In
a recent editorial said: "Judges Yerkea,
of Bucks county, who heads the Dem
ocratic state ticket for the supreme
court Judgeship, can hardly expect any
support from organised labor In this
atate. Yerkea is now rounding out his
second term on the bench in Bucks
county and during the score of years
he has worn the ermine, haa given
ron Drooi "
I hut very little sympathy for the labor
unions. This was strongly demon-
strated during the trials of the men
Involved In the Philadelphia street car
strikes some years ago.
"No Philadelphia judge cared to sit
on any of the cases and Yerkes was
called to preside over the court of
common pleas. His remarks during
the progress of the trials left drop at
different periods clearly Indicated that
he had no love for the men who had
sought to gain what every human be
ing Is entitled to equitable wages and
treatment worthy of human beings.
"The Clgarmakers' union of the
state also claims to have evidence at
hand to prove that Yerkes has sen
tenced union men to tho Rucks county
jail as tramps because they claimed
to be without money and were hunting
for employment within his domain.
"Labor would be recreant to Its own
Interests to elevate any person to the
supreme bench of the state who pos
sesses anything like a prejudice for Its
right to organize."
The man who can hardly crawl, and
has juit strength to get through a day's
work, has no strength left for family
life. He wants to l quiet ; to be alone,
out of sight and sound of everybody.
What a difference between such a
man and the healthv, hearty man, who
romps with his children and rides his
laughing baby to "Banbury Cross."
What makes the irfiTerence? Usually
disease of the stomach, involving the
entire digestive and nutritive system.

these diseases are cured the hindrance to
