SULZER CEFENSE RESTS
D-Cady Herrick Declares the Respond-
ent Would Not Hide Behind His
Wife's Skirts.
Albany, Oct. 9.—The Sulzer im.
peachment trial came to an abrupt
end. The end of the trial came after
a vain fight of the Governor's law-
yers to drag in evidence of a con-
spiracy hatched by Charles F. Mur-
phy to ruin the Governor. Baffled in
this way by Judge Cullen, ex-Senator
Harvey D. Hinman, who had been bat-
tling valiantly, dropped languidly into
his chair at 3.45 o'clock and mur-
mured: “The respondent rests.”
Sulzer refused to go on the witness
stand, as that would make the testi-
mony of his wife necessary, D-Cady
Herrick, his counsel; said.
Louis A. Sarecky’s story that the
blame for failure to report campaign
contributions was all his was little
shaken by John B. Stanchfield’s cross-
examination.
John A. Hennessy’s testimony for
Sulzer about graft in State depart-
ments was barred by the court.
SULZER PICTURED FIT AND
UNFIT.
For Sulzer.
“A man may be unfit in some
respects. He may have com-
mitted indiscretions or worse
in his private life, and yet we
are to judge of him, of a public
official, by what he does in pub-
lic office and in no other way.
“But he is not on trial for
unfitness for office. The peo-
ple passed upon him.”—D-Cady
Herrick.

SARECKY BLAMED
TELLS IMPEACHMENT COURT HE
PREPARED STATEMENT FOR
GOVERNOR SULZER TO SIGN.
MURPHY'S AID WAS SOUGHT
Wanted = Impeachment Proceedings
“Called Off” Sarecky Demonstrates
His Ability to Imitate Sulzer’s
Signature.
Albany, N. Y., Oct. 8.—With the
testimony of Louis A. Sarecky, the
most important witness for Governor
William Sulzer except thé Governor
himself, the lawyers for the defense
began their fight in the High Court of
Impeachment to prove the Governor
guiltless of perjury and theft.
Before Sarecky went on the stand
Allan A. Ryan was recalled by the
prosecution and swore that Sulzer at-
tempted recently to negotiate a bar-
gain with Charles F. Murphy, leader
of Tammany Hall, to have his im-
peachment “called off.” Mr. Ryan
testified as follows: —
“I suggested to Mr. Sulzer that, now
that certain charges had been pre-
ferred against him, I could not see
how he €ould afford to put himself in
a position not to answer those
charges. He said that he did not
put her on the stand. He
told me that if the court voted that
his trial was not legal he could make
a8 statement and explain the situation
satisfactorily.
“Mr. Sulzer asked me to see Mr.
De Lancey Nicoll. He said that Mr.
Nicoll could see cergain parties, and
have him see Mr. Barnes.
“Mr. Sulzer wanted me to have Mr.
Nicoll persuade Mr. Charles F. Mur-
phy to endeavor to call off this inquiry
by getting his following to vote that
the court had no right to try, the As-
sembly no right to vote, this impeach-
ment. Mr. Sulzer said that he was
willing to do whatever was right.
“lI did not see Mr. Nicoll and did
not see, Mr. Root. I told Mr. Sulzer

HOLDS UP NEW HAVEN SUIT
Attorney General Is Willing to Settle
the Dissolution Proceedings Out
of Court.
Washington, Oct. 8.—The general
tone of the annual report of the New
York, New Haven & Hartford Rail-
road has attracted the attention of
officials of the Department of Justice.
President Elliott's statement that
the company had no desire to retain
investments except in conformity with
law and sound public policy brought
from officials here the staatement that
Attorney General McReynolds would
gladly receive any proposition from
the railroad before filing the contem-
plated dissolution suit under the Sher-
man law. If the railroad should meet
the demands of the Government, the
Department of Justice, it was de-
clared, would be willing to settle the
case out of court. :
Criminal prosecutions may be
avoided if the road meets the Govern-
ment’s terms. The urgent thing, in
the opinion of the attorney General,
is to settle’ New England transporta-
tion problem quickly.
SEGREGATION IS UPHELD
Maryland Court of Appeals Hands
Down Opinion Covering
Question.
Baltimore, Oct. 8.—Pointing out the
difficulties in the way of enforcing the
West segregation ordinance, which it
invalidated several months ago, the
Court of Appeals handed down an
opinion in Annapolis upholding the
principle of segregation.
Briefly, the Court of Appeals de-
cided the ordinance overstepped the
bounds of the police powers of the
State when it prohibited one who was

to it simply because he was of dif-

Prominent agriculturists everywhere
are supporting the $50,000,000 good
roads loan to be voted upon at the
November elections, but there are no
stronger advocates of highway im-
provements for Pennsylvania than the
committee from this state appointed
by act of the legislature to co-operate
with the Permanent American Com-
mission on Agriculture and Rural Life,
a national body that stands for the
very best there is in country life in
the United States,
The Pennsylvania committee has
thought so well of the loan that at a
recent meeting called for the purpose
it issued the following appeal to tno
farmers of the siate:

zens oi rennsytvania— .
lune Penusylvania committee ap-
poinced tu cu vperate with the “Pern.a-
nent Adnerican Comission on Agri-
Cuilure, rinance, Production, Distrivu-
tion and teuias pile,” in session at the |
stale capi.ul at tne call of tne chair-
man ‘ui .... committee, desires re-
spectiuily ou cail the attention of tne
Deopie uo. .¢ sae to the tact that no
8iea.er .acwr can enter into the im-
bortant worn or placing the agricul-
ure oI v..u state upon a profitable ba-
sys.em of
800d puul.c roads.
Whe opporiuniiy is now before the
voters olf the state to say whether they
are willing that the hopeful beginn:ng
made in tne direction of road improve-
ment shail end, or whether our state,
which in the importance and value of
its products stands among the firs:
in the Union, shall carry this
work forward until our public high-
ways and methods of rural travel and
transportation shall equal any to ba
found in our own country or any of the
countries of the old world.
At the coming general election the
voters of the siale will say whe.her or
not the proposed amendment to our
State constitution, making 1t poss.u e
for the nex: general assembly to pro-
vide for a loan of $50,000,0.0 to b:
used in thie construction and mainre-
nance of a compleie system of Ligh-
ways shall be adopted, and every ci i-
zen should concider carefully he
effect of nis vote upon the gener!
prosperity of the commonw alth a d
the individuel interes:s of thea reople
of the present generation, as wel a:
the generations to follow.
If tie propdsed ameniment is vote:
down no opportunity wili be afford d
for the correction of the mistake (for
such we must rerard it) for at leas
five ‘years, as the state cons.ituti n
provides that no amendments rela:ing
to the sa ~e subject “shall be subm. .-
ted oftener than cnce in five years.”
t is hoped that voters, in m kin
up their minds, will cive thoug tu
consideration to the following proposi-
tions which we believe to be correct:
. The proposed amendment d es
not settle the question as to wheth:r
or not the loan ig to be secured, but
simvly makes it possible for the n x*
legislature to consider the questi n
and provide the terms upon which such
loan, if made, shall be negotiated, in-
cluding the dates at which bonds shall
be issued, the time of their maturity,
the interest they shall bear and the
periods during which the work provid-
ed for by each bond issue shall be
performed, so that instead of the en-
tire work contemplated being under-
taken at once, it may be so extended
as to secure the best possible results.
The vote will be essentially non-
partisan, as the propcsed work will be
arranged and carried out by what-
ever party the people of the common-
wealth may from time to time place in
power.
3. The establishment of a system of
good roads will not only help the far-
mer by providing means ef reaching
his market with most ease and least
cost, but it will relieve him of a con-
siderable pcrtion of the local taxes he
now pays. The state has already tak-
en over, and is now maintaining at
state expense, as best it can with the
small amount of money that can be ap-
plied to t] ork, about 9000 miles cf
road, which will be increased as the
work is carried forward, relieving the
local taxpayers of much of the burden
ey are now bearing.
4. As the work of road improvement
goes forward material needed will be
taken from adjacent lands and quar-
ries, for which fair compensation will
be made, teams will be needed in grad-
ing and in hauling material from quar-
ries and railroad stations to the points
where used, and laborers and mechan.
ics will be employed in the construc-
tion work, so that farmers will find
profitable work for their teams when
not needed on the farm, labor of all
kinds will be in demand at good wages
promptly paid, and a ready market will
be brought to the doors of the eople of
the sections through which Ee roads
pass for food supplies for men and
teams, all of which means that a large
proportion of the money expended will
g0 directly into the hands of the peo-
ple of the rural districts of the state.
5. Community industries and co-op-
prative associations helpful to farm-
ers and rural districts will be promot-
ed. Better roads means better educa.
tional facilities for the rural districts.
for with good roads we may look for
consolidation and complete grading of
the rural schools.
6. Social conditions in country dis-
tricts will be greatly improved and the
country church will enjoy a like de-
gree of prosperity when worshippers
can assemble without fear of being
wrecked or their carriages being sunk
in the mud on the way.
Time: would fail should we attemrt
to enumerate all the blescines that
will come to our beloved cormon-
wealth with the establishment of a
good system of roads, and we trust
that the motives which prompt us to
issue this circular in the performance
of the work belonging to the commi-
tee, upon which we are serving the
rural interests of the state, will not
be misunderstood.
