Republican Voter* Will Fulfill Sen*
•tor Penrose'! Prediction.
TO BEAT MCKINLEY MAJORITY
Pennsylvania WIN Be the Banner
State at the Coming Inaugura
tion
(Special Correspondence.]
Philadelphia, Oet. 11.
With but thrse weeks left for cam
palming. the voters of Pennsylvania
have but little time to prepare for the
election, which takes place on Tueaia/,
November 8
While much work baa been doae by
the members of the Republican com
mitters throughout the state, Chairman
Penrose Is urging all who take an ae-
Uve Interest In the party organisation
to leave nothing undone to get every
Republican to the polls that can be
yosstbly got to vote.
On a visit to the White House a lew
iays ago Senator Penrose told Preel
dent Roosevelt that Pennsylvania will
give him a greater majority than haa
ever been given to a presidential candi
date. and the president expressed hlm
eelf aa greatly pleaded with thla report.
In order to make good hie prediction.
Senator Penrose has appealed ta the
rank and file of the organization In
every county to take the McKlnley vote
aa their guide and seek tn exceed It In
every voting precinct
Already plana are being made by
young Republicans to participate at
President Roosevelt's Inauguration,
and It is the wish of all who hope to
be present that Pennsylvania shall be
able to carry on their bannere the an
nouncement that the Keystone State
gave Roosevelt the largest Republican
majority In her history.
Not only In It desired that Roosevelt'a
majority shall be the greatest on rec
ord. but the aim of the party leadere
la to have Pennsylvania eontlnue to
have the largest Republican delegation
In congress. This cannot be done with
out the hearty co-operation of the Re
publican voters generally. Following
neat November's election there Is to
be a great future for the active Repub
licans of Pennsylvania, and all who
wish to share In the glory of the tri
umph und to he a part of the great
victorious hosts who will celebrate the
elei tlon of Roosevelt on November I
should begin now to enroll themselvee
for the struggle at the polls and to
eam the honor of having contributed
to the grand result.
Colonel Wesley R Andrews, secre
tary of the Republican state commit
tee, is authority for the statement that
never beforf In his many years of con
nection with the organization have
there b»en so many young men taking
a band In the campaign work.
Every Republican should Inform
himself regarding the laaues of the
campaign, BO that he can Intelligently
discuss them with the doubtful voters
or Democratic neighbors. Editor E. B.
McKee, of the Reporter-Journal and
Bradford Republican. In reviewing the
situation a few days ago said:
"Thus far there is no Indication that
the Democratic party has made any
progress towards diminishing the Re
publican majority given at the last
presidential election The divisions
in the Democratic party which have
been fatal to its success continue
One Democratic leader wants a tariff
for revenue only, another dreads anv
proposal to disturb existing industrial
conditions; one wishes to make an
immediate promise of independence to
the Philippines; another Is equallyeer
tain that any proposal to haul down
the hag will I>e unpopular: one lays
stress on the demand ot the platform
foi increasing the power of the Inter
stale commerce commission, another
on Parker's affirmation that new
legislation is necessary
"One year the party Is for free silver,
another year silence One year free
trade; another year protection with
tarin revision trimmings, It haa no
definite principle, no defined policy,
simply a consuming huager for the
spoils of office and a chronic habit of
condemning what others do No one
knows what they will do If they regain
power; and It Is this doubt that makes
business Interests timid and the people
afraid to entrust them with the control
of the government "
The Bryan speeches are not helping
Parker One of Tom Watson's sup.
porters said:
"it Is singular how Bryan has lost
th* respect of his once ardent follow
ers ills support of Parker has not In
fluence a single man In the eaat wh'

ANNUAL REUNION
OF SABRE REGIMENT
The 27th annual reunion of the 7th
Kegiment, Pennsylvania Volunteer
Cavalry,often called "the Sabre Regi
ment of the West," which is to be
held at Milton next Monday and Tues
day, promises to be an interesting and
enjoyable event.
Ex Sheriff Miohael Beckbill, Hiram
Werluian and Thomas Saunders of this
city were members of company I) in
this regiment, and served throughout
the war. Many former residents of
Danville were also in tho regiment
several of the companies having been
recruited from the northern part of
Montour and Northumberland coun
ties.
Major General James H. Wilson,
commander of the Cavalry Corps of
the army of the Cumberland and Gen
erat Joseph Wheeler who commanded
the Confederate Cavalry, have both
promised to be present. On Monday
evening a camp fire will be held, aud
on Tuesday will occur the business
meeting and election of officers for the
ensuing year together with a banquet.
An effort will be made by the Dan
ville delegation to have the next re
union in this city. This regiment held
its reunion here in 1891. Special rates
have been arranged on tho railroads
running into Milton.
Burr Stock Company.
Of all the plays from the pen of that
greatest of American playwrights, Hal
Beid, "Knobs o' Tennessee," is with
out a doubt one of the very best. The
scene of the play is laid in the mount
ains of Tennessee, where moonshine
whiskey, even to the present day, is
au occupation followed by the sturdy
mountaineers, whose land is too bar
ren to raise much else than corn, and
from which corn whiskey is evident
ly the most profitable product, though
rather hazardous to the peace of mind
of the producers, who are continually
hunted by the revenue officers. The
play is brim full of bright, sparkling
comedy, pathos and stirring heart in
terest.
The Burr Stock company, who will
produce this beautiful play at the
Opera House next Monday night car
ries a carload of scenery and effects.
Their production is as complete as the
original company presented, and a fine
entertainment is assured those who at
tend the Opera House Monday night.

STRONG
ARGUMENT
IContiuned from First Page.]
' in. Mr. Scarlet began to argue the do.
cisions quoted by Mr. Hiucklcy and
showed that grade crossings ant not
strictly prohibited and each crossing :
case must bo considered on its own ,
merits. Engineering skill mikes it ;
possible to construct anything. The
law of 1871, when electric tars weie !
never dreamed of, is uot wholly appli- ;
cable to l'.HiJ and the conditions arising
from modern progress. The safety of
the public is the supremo law, and
even if it is practical and yet is dang i
erous to operate an overhead crossing
such a crossing should not he built.
The interests of the citizens of any
place are protected by the municipal -
legislators and in this cafe Council j
says the safety of the public demands
a tfrade crossing. The granting of a
charter to a railroad does uot interfere
wilh the right of the Borough to con
trol is own streets and as in Danville
trains may ran no faster than eight I
miles an hour these facts enter into j
the case. All whose interests are affect
ed must be made a party to the bill !
aud in this case the Borough of Dan
ville should have been made a party
to it, Mr. Scarlet continued to say,at- j
ter which he spoke of po'.es and wires j
of telegraph companies as being real
estate, according to a Supremo Court
decision. The Borough Council may !
control them only so far as caring fot j
public safety. Mr. Scarlet offered
numerous decisions to prove his sever
al contentions. He maintained that an
injunction can not be granted if it in- 1
terferes with public work. "Are this'
streets to ba torn up continually simp
ly to allow the I). L. & W. to run 14
trains in 24 hours through the city?''
he asked. The question of the danger
of an overhead crossing lie said has uot
heretofore been raisnd, hut if will hi ,
hero and will have to b.f met in final
heiring. In concluding he positively
asserted that since it has been proven
that an overhead crossing will multi
ply the danger to life and limb a gr»de
cossing at Mill street is an al s ilute
necessity.
Kx Senator Herring; followed Mr.
Scarlet. His argument dealt mainly
with a review <>f the testimony adduc
ed at tint hearing. The trolley motor
man, locomotive engineer and gate
watchman nil would have to b < care
less at one time to have an accident
occur with a sifety device for grad
crossings and even in such an impossi
hie case the train would pass whl e
the trolley ran to one side of the track
or if the trolley car got on the cross,
iug as the train approach) d the train
would be derailed 400 feet away from
the crossing. He referred to the fact
that it had been shown that on an over
head crossing many accidents may oc
cur over which the operators can hav
no control.
Following Mr. Herring Judge Wil
lard occupied the balance of the after
noon. His argument was very exhaus
tive., lasting an hour and a half and
was taken up entirely with quoting
decisions and opinions. He said there
are only two propositions in the case;
That it is reasonable and practicable
to construct an overhead crossing an i
there is nothing to do but to continue
the injunction of the D. L. A. W.
against the tiolley company and to
dissolve the other

Corn throughout the county is near

The apple crop is of unprecedented

DISCREDIT STORY OF
DISASTER TO SLAVONIA
LONDON, Oct. 1«». —At the otlices
here of the Canard Steamship company
rumor published that the steamer Sla

Spanish coast is entirely discredited.
The Slavouia, it is pointed out, pass

Spanish coast. The vessel is due at
New York on October 22. Here is a
dispatch, which was from Vienna,and

"A Vienna dispatch to the London
Standard this morning gives a rumor
current in that city to the effect that
a Cunard steamship from Flume,with
2,200 immigrants on board, has sunk
off the Spanish coast. A fierce storm
was raging at the time. The Standard
has no confirmation of the report, but
gives it for what it is worth. Flume
is ill the Adriatlo Sea aud is Hun
gary's only port. It is almost opposite
Venice."
Jury List.
