BKNATOR SNYDER'S CAREER.
William Preston Snyder, the nom
inee for audil >r general, was born in
EaM Vincent township. Chester coun
ty. Pa October 7, IKSI, which county
be Ih now representing In the state
aenate fur the third consecutive term.
WILLIAM P SNYDER,
Candidate for Auditor General.
Mia ear I) i In
the oublic schools, in the place of his
birth, and farm work occupied his
time, when not engaged in fortifying
himself with intellectual training.
Later In life he attended the Millers
villo state normal school ami Urslnus
College, both well known Pennsylvania
Institutions.
During the winter of 'GB and '69 he
taught school. After a course of study
he was graduated as physician In
March, 1875, from the medical depart
ment of the University of Pennsylva
nia He returned to Chester county.
Spring City, where he now resides,
and began the practice of medicine,
and continued as practitioner until
1886. when he accepted a position as
medical examiner for the relief depart
ment of the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company, which position he held for
nearly two years, from February, 1886.
He served as postmaster of Spring
City from October, 1883, until August,
1885. Senator Snyder has always taken
a lively interest in politics, and has
been an active worker In all of the
campaigns of his party. In 1887 ho
was nominated for prothonotary of his
county and was elected by a large ma
jority, and served in that office until
January. 1891. The year preceding his
relinquishment of the office he was
made chairman of the county Repub
lican committee. At the county pri
maries in the fall of 1890, while serv
ing as prothonotary. he was nominated
for member of the house and was
elected. He was a delegate from Ches
ter to the Republican state gubernato
rial convention in 1878 and to the
state convention that nominated Gen
eral James A. Beaver for governor in
ISB2. In 1892 Mr. Snyder was elected to
tho senate. In the session of 1895 he
was chairman of the committee on
health sanitation, and In 1897 chair
man of the committee on railroads.
In 1896 he was re-elected to the senate
by nearly Buoo majority, having re
ceived nearly twice as many votes as
his Democratic and Prohibition oppo
nents combined.
At the opening of the session of 1899
he was elected president pro tem., and
filled the position with dignity, credit
and acceptability, as he did in 1901.
During the campaign of 1900 a deter
mined effort was made by the Demo
crats and Independents to defeat Mr.
Snyder for election to a third term,
but he won by a plurality of over 1700.
WORKED FOR THE FARMERS.
No more popular man sat In the
chair of president pro tem. of the state
senate, a fact which was attested by
his second election as presiding offi
cer. a distinction rarely accorded to a
senator. At the session of 1903 he was
chairman of thecommltteeof appropria
tions. During his legislative career Mr.
Snyder was conspicuous as a cham
pion of the interests of the farmers of
Pennsylvania. He was an ardent, con
sistent and detertnlned advocate of
legislation to protect the pure butter
Interests. He stood like a stone wall
against the efTorts of the oleomarga
rine trust, and was largely responsible
for the passage of laws advocated by
the butter and dairy men. Were it
not for the efTorts of men like Senator
Snyder, the farmers of Pennsylvania
would today be at the mercy of the
oleomargarine trust.
Pennsylvania By Her Election Re
turns Shapes Party Policies.
NATIONAL CAMPAIGN OUTLOOK
Overwhelming Republican Majorities
Desired This Fall to Insure a Con
tinuance of Roosevelt, Protection
and Prosperity.
[Special Correspondence.]
Philadelphia. Sept. 22. Manufac
turers. business men and many hun
dreds of thousands of employes of
mercantile and industrial establish
ments throughout Pennsylvania seem
to be Impressed with the important
bearing the result of the approaching
election In the state will have in shap
ing the policy to be advocated by the
Republican party in the next national
convention.
Already the election of delegates to
the next Republican national conven
tion is under way, and Pennsylvania
has led off by naming the first Roose
velt delegates chosen In the United
States.
While In the middle west there has
been a revival of the agitation for so
called "tariff reform," which is noth
ing more nor less than a demand for
Democratic free trade, Republicans of
great manufacturing states like Perm
sylvanla are alert to the necessity of
meeting this Issue with prompt and
emphatic declarations against any
such movement.
Through the agency of the Republi
can Btate committee, the chairman of
the Republican county committees
have been warned to get In touch with
the members of their respective com
mittees and instruct them to advise
every voter as to the bearing the elec
tion this fall »>ill have on the next
presidential t let tion.
As a natter of fat t, the utterances

Over-Work Weakens
Your Kidneys.
Unhealthy Kidneys Make Impure Blood.
All the blood In your body passes through
your kidneys once every three minutes.
fThe kidneys are your
blood purifiers, they fil
ter out the waste or
Impurities In the blood.
If they are sick or out
of order, they fail to do
their work.
Pains, aches and rheu
matism come from ex
cess of uric acid in the
blood, due to neglected
kidney trouble.
Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady
heart beats, and makes one feel as though
they had heart trouble, because the heart 'is
over-working In pumping thick, kidney
poisoned blood through veins and arteries.
It used to be considered that only urinary
troubles were to be traced to the kidneys,
but now modern science proves that nearly
all constitutional diseases have their begin
ning in kidney trouble.
If you are sick you can make no mistake
by first doctoring your kidneys. The mild
and the eitraordinary effect of Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy Is
soon realized. It stands the highest for its
wonderful cures of the most distressing cases
and is sold on its merits 112 'S™'
by all druggists in fifty
cent and one dollar siz- HCSwIHiE
es. You may have a —'Jla.' s
sample bottle by mail iioiu*. of
free, also pamphlet telling you how to find
out If you have kidney or bladder trouble.
Mention this paper when writing Dr. Kilmer
& Co., Blnghamton, N. Y.
Don't make no mistake, but remem
her the name, Swanp-Root. Dr Kil
mer's Swamp-Root, and the addles
Itinghamtori, N. Y on every bottles
v )f the delegates to the Republican
lational convention, and therefore it
Is essential that there shall be an
overwhelming Republican majority
rolled up in Pennsylvania this fall.
Such a majority will be considered
as Pennsylvania's voice in behalf of a
continuance of the present era of pros
perity and an emphatic protest against
any and all attempts at tariff tinkering;
In other words, such a verdict will be
accepted to mean that Pennsylvania
Is in favor of letting well enough
alone: a policy which, If pursued, will
prevent business disturbances and
the consequent inauguration of a pe
riod of depression which usually pr»
Vails during presidential years.

The High School Annex is now ap
proaching completion and there is lit
tle doubt hut that it will be ready
for occupancy by the first Monday in
October. The wainscoting is practi
cally completed and on the interior of
the building but little more remains
to be done than to hang the doors and
complete the balustrade at the stair
way. The entire annex is finished in
natural wood.yellow pine being used.
The beatiful finish taken on by this
wooil together with the high ceilings
and the extensive surface ot snow
white walls sets the rooms off to a
splendid advantage and it is doubtful
whether there are more attractive or
desirable school rooms anywhere in
this section.

A FIkST CLASS
ATTRACTION
Au event of much importance is the
announcement ot the coming of "Teas
of the D'Urhervilles" bv special ar
rangement with Harrison Grey Fiske,
at the Opera House for Friday even
ing. Thin is the late Lorrimer Stod
dard's dramatization of Thos. Har
dy'a alieady famous novel, which ran
for uo long at the Manhattan Theatre,
New York City A critic speaking of
its author said, "Hardy draws real
men and women and preserves his
faculty of seeing the touch of humor
In the most harrowing situations."
The action takes place on Euglish
soil and the play deals with an epoch
In the life of Tess.of the ancient fain
ily of D'Urbervilles, a wild and pas
sionate child of nature, whose great
est fault Is her devotion to her fam
ily. It is said to be intensely interest
ing, holding its audiences as if in a
spell throughout its five scenes. The
complete stage equipment that was
used during its metropolitan run is
being carried by the company and Mr.
Frank Burt,who is directing the tour,
has hesitated at nuthlug to attain the
essentially realistic effects and char
acter work demanded by the play.
Prominent on the program of Keene
inventor-magician, are the Nevarro
children. These juvenile aitists are
making a decided hit everywhere by
their clever singing aud remarkable
toe-danolug.
Another strong feature is the refin
ed specialty of Trewetz, the musical
wonder, who keeps the audience in a
royal good humor by his mastery of
numerous musical instruments Tre
wetz has the happy faculty of drawing
sweet music from objects which would
fail to respond to the touch of the
average mortal.
These features,added to the remark
able work of Keene himself, form a
combination that is hard to excel I as
au eutertaiuer.
Keene will appear in this city on
Weduesilay evening, September 30th.
Next Thursday night. October Ist,
the newest melodramatic success,
"The Johnstown Flood" fiom the pen
ot the successful author, Mr Charles
Towuseiid, will be presented at the
Opera House for oue pei forinsauce on
ly, by Mi. Edward Houghton's excel
lent company. The public is familiar
with mauy of the incidents of the fa
tality of May ill, 1889, at Johnstown,
fa. The play abound* iu stining sen
timeiits, exciting interest, bieathloss
suspenses aud happy climaxes. Its
beautiful language and sublime
thoughts mingled with romance, com
edy aud history,excel the best ot mod
eru plays.
The great cast which will be seen
iu Willard Spenser's "Miss Bob
White" at the Opera House ou Satur
day evening, October 3rd includes
Dorothy Hunting, Alice Dovey, Edith
Blair, Kthel Dovey, Anna McNabb,
Mae Boutou, Lillian Randolph, Neil
McNeill, Frank Deshou, Nick Burn
ham, Bob Broderick, G. Harry Wil
son, Lester Brown, Donald Archer
aud Jim McClure aud a chorus of 60,
aud a superb orchestra It will be on t
of the greatest musical treats ever of
fered to the theatre goers of this city
and an such will undoubtedly attract
a large crowd.
