Republican Editors of Pennsylvania
Lined Up Solidly For th' Tic e .
ALL IGNORE DEMOCRATIC TRAP
Republican Clubmen Are Preparing
For a Big State League Convention
at Easton.
ISpecial Correspondence.]
Harrisburg. July 25.
A very gritifying feature of the pres
ent political canvass in Pennsylvania
is the sturdy manner in which the Re
publican editors of the state are sup
porting the nominees of their party and
interesting themselves in the work of
the preliminary canvass for the suc
cess of the ti< ket.
They realize the importance of the
present campaign and its bearing upon
next year's contest, when a governor,
a lieutenant governor, an auditor gen
eral, a secretary of internal affairs.
32 members of congress and members
of the state senate and the state house
of representatives are to be elected.
They have all been loyally standing
by the administration of President
Roosevelt and they recognize the ne
cessity of Pennsylvania Republicans
giving rousing Republican majorities
this fall, so that the president and his
cabinet shall be assured that they have
the backing of the Republican organi
zation of the Keystone State In their
great national undertakings. '1 he in
tense Americanism of the Roosevelt
administration has appealed to the Re
publican editors of Pennsylvania as It
has to the voters of the state generally,
and they believe that they can best up
hold that administration by urging
their readers to stand steadfastly by
the Republican party In the state as
well as in the nation.
Not Falling Into Fusion Trap.
Despite the efforts of Democrats and
assistant Democrats or so-called Insur
gents or Republican party wreckers,
who have been striving to divert the
Republican newspapers of the state
into supporting their schemes for
fusion, the editors of Republican news
papers have not only not fallen into
•heir trap, but they have exposed the
*ame and the interest that Would be
advanced If it were consummated.
The Republican editors of Pennsyl
vania know how their subscribers
stand. They know that the immense
army of Republicans in this state are
true and loyal to their party color*
and that they will be found going to
the polls 011 election day supporting
the full Republican ticket.
"I am now getting practically every
Republican newspaper In the state at
the headquarters in Philadelphia," said
Colonel Wesley It, Andrews, chairman
of the Republican state committee, a
few days ago. "and I am delighted with
the splendid support that they are giv
ing to the nominees of the Republican
party. Our candidates are all men of
high character anil of exceptional abil
ity. They are all admirably equipped
for the positions for which they have
been nominated. I believe that I can
safely predict that .1. I.ee Plummer,
the Republican nominee for state
treasurer, and the four candidates for
the judiciary will receive at the No
vember election majorities which will
exceed those given to any Republican
candidates that have ever been elected
in this state in an off year.*'
Chairman Andrews declines to dis
cuss as unworthy of notice the many
false and malicious reports that are
being circulated from Democratic head
quarters in the in' 1 1 ;;t of the Demo
cratic nominee for state treasurer, and
proposes to continue to direct the Re
publican forces along the lines mapped
out at the beginning of the canvass.
The policy of tlx Republicans in the
present campaign will be to enlighten
the voters of the tate at all times on
the real issues of the contest and to
leave nothing undone toward perfect
ing the Hi publican organization in the
several counties with the view of get
ting out the largest possible vote on
election day.
Among the many disappointments
that have come to the Democrats and
their insurgent allies who have been
preaching 112" ion tor the fall campaign,
the complete collapse of the fusion
schemes in Beaver county Is the latest
Beaver County In Line.
Here ii- a striking case in which the
editor of a Republican newspaper was
quick to see the trend of popular senti
ment toward the Republican party and
decide not to lie swerved from the logi
cal position of a Republican newspaper
There was a hot contest over a Judi
cial nomination In Beaver county, and
although the result was not entirely
satisfactory to the Beaver Falls Tri
bune, the editor of that paper last week
came out manfully in support of the
full Republican ticket and placed at
the top of his editorial page the com
plete list of the Republican candidates.
This Instance is cited not because
this Is an extraordinary or unusual
action, but because it had been her
alded from one end of the state to
the other that Beaver county Republi
cans were all torn up, that one of the
leading Republican newspapers would
support a fusion movement, and that
the state an well as the local Republi
can candidates would be sacrificed at
the polls,
"Beaver county will be In line for the
entire Republican state ticket," writes
Chairman Charles II Stone, of the Re
publican countv committee. "There
need be 110 concern about ruslon in our
l county, and ! am sure that Mr. Plum
met- and tlia other nominees on the
nfate ticket will be delighted with the
majorities that will be rolled up ta
Beaver county this fall."
Beaver county presents a condition
of affairs such as will be found in other
i counties where the Democrats have
I been banking upon alleged Republican
dissensions.
The Republican lines are being form
j eel throughout the state, there will bo
no comfort given the enemy anywhere,
and there will be a magnificent show
ing for the cause of prosperity and
progress when the election returns
shall be received.
Clumben Are Active.
In every county In the state where
there Is a Republican club activity is
now being shown among the members
j over the election of delegates to the
| convention of the State League of Re
' publican Clubs, which Is to be held In
' September next.
John R. Wiggins, president of the
| State League, in an address to the
1 members, among other things, says:
| "In compliance with the instructions
of the executive committee of the
league, given at its last meeting, held
; In Harrifthurg on April 2t>, 1905, at
j which time it was decided to accept
1 the invitation of the Republican clubs
j of Northampton county and hold the
next annual convention In the city of
j Easton. your president conferred with
, the Hon. Wesley R. Andrews, chalr
j man of the state Republican commit
tee. and the local committee of Easton,
and agreed on Wednesday and Thurs
day, September 20 and 21, for the date
of the convention, and you are hereby
notified of that fact.
"The Republican clubs of Pennsyl
vania have never been found wanting
In any great crisis. When the rallying
cry of the party has been sounded the
young men who have banded them
selves into organizations throughout
the state have gathered around the
standard. It is not so much with them
a matter of old men's quarrels as it is
the maintenance of the very founda
tion of Republican supremacy —the in
fluence of the Republican voter upon
the party's affairs. In local contests
the enmities of individuals sometimes
blind them to tho real questions at
Issue.
"Through the waves and spasms of
local restlessness the broader princi
ples of party organization should not
be forgotten. Presidents, governors and
mayors are to be elected and Republi
can progress and influence are to be
preserved. Local differences will ad
just themselves. Ix?t the young men
of the state gather together In this
convention and show that they stand
for principes above men and for party
above ambition."
THE STATE TREASURERSHIP
Republican Nominee As Viewed By An
Editor From His Home County.
In commenting upon the contest for
state treasurer, the editor of the Holli
daysburg Register says:
"Hon J. Lee Plummer, the Republi
can candidate for state treasurer, has
the ability to fill that office with
credit. This fact cannot be success
fully contradicted; besides, he Is
known by the people with whom he
has lived all his life to be perfectly
honest and reliable and a man of the
strictest integrity. While not a Pro
hibitionist. he is a man of the strictest
temperance habits. These are facts
which cannot be controverted. He was
regularly nominated in a Republican
state convention, composed of dele
gates who were chosen by the Republi
cans of the various counties of the
state.
"There was every opportunity for
any man in the state to contest the
nomination with him. He was nomi
nated fairly as the candidate of his
party. Now, what Republican can have
a valid excuse to vote against him?
Is it better that the Republicans as
sist a Democrat into one of the best
offices of the state, or vote for their
candidate, who is in every way worthy?
The opposition is trying hard to raise
a respectable fight against him, but
the only possible show they will have
will be through the votes of Republi
cans. Why should we aid them in
their work?"
A Word to State Republicans.
"The Republican party Is not re
sponsible for the misuse that has been
made of it in Philadelphia." says the
editor of the Juniata Herald. "The
truth is that it deserves credit for cor
recting the wrongs that have been com
mitted by some of its faithless mem
bers. The corruption that has existed
in Philadelphia Is wholly of a local
character and the party in the state has
no connection with or relation to it.
Why should the party elsewhere suffer
on account of it? Why should state
candidates be defeated because of what
has occurred in a single city? If the
sins of a few were to be visited upon
the party when could it ever be suc
cessful? The Republican ticket is com
posed of honest men, was fairly nomi
nated and Is entitled to the support of
every member of the party. B<- sure
to vote for it."
Magnificent Majority Is Predicted.
"Active work is already under way
for the fall campaign," says the editor
of the Scranton Tribune, "and the as
sistants of Republican State Chairman
W. R Andrews have entered upon an
aggressive fight for the success of the
whole ticket. Although Democracy Is
making desperate attempts to profit by
the troubles that have recently at
tracted so much attention in Philadel
phia, Pennsylvania's superb Republican
organization will not be affected by the
efforts of the enemy. The ticket pre
sented this year Is one of the strongest
that has ever adorned the Republican
banner, and there is no question that
it will be re<ognlated by the usual mag
nificent majority at the coming elec
tion."

ANOTHER BLOT IN
NORTHUMBERLAND CO.
Before one murder case lias come to
trial, another arises to blot the record
of Northumberland county. Like most
of its predecessors, it occurred 111 the
coal regions.
The scene and circumstances are so
familiar that they would bn weari
some, were it not for the terrible na
ture of the crime.
The tragedy opens with a bar-room
brawl William Evans, the victim,
was iu the saloon of Joe Raskoski, at
Brady, trying to ariange a In-round
boxing match between himself and
| some foreigner. This idea of :i light
; appealed to the bibblers present, and
they put it into [immediate execution,
j Soon tables were overturned, chairs
| smashed and glasses flew in all direc
| tious. A beer bottle struck Evans 011
the head and he immediately made his
exit. He started down the stieet, but
I it was a case of out of the frying pan
J into the lire. As he passed the house
of Anthony Ruminoski, that worthy
j stepped forward and deliberately put a
38 calibre shot into Evans* intestines.
Evans was taken to the Miners' Hos
| pital at Fountain Springs, and seems
' at present to be dying.
Ruminoski was captured an I taken
j before Justice of the Peace Rowe, of
Shamokin, and held for court.
The canse of the crime is an old
1 feud betweeu gangs of Evans' and of
Ruminoski.
On Saturday afternoon the two met
' at a base ball game and rooted for op
; posite sides.
Ruminoski put up a remarkable de
tense that it was not lie, but Evans'
| brother who shot Evans. But the evi
| donee of the Czar's former subject was
'not corroborated, and even contradict- |
ed by Evans, himself. The same gal

BIGLER JOHNSON
PAIL PENALTY
TOWANDA, Pa., .July 25.--Bigler
Johnson was hanged 111 the jail yard i
here this moiniug for the murder of!
his wife and her niece, little Annie 1
Hetijamin, :it their home, near Mace
donia, thiH county, last September.
The drop fell exactly at 10:05. John- :
son had a four foot fall and lug neck j
was broken.
The murt'erer was accompanied to
the scaffold by his spiritual advisor,
Kev. Mr. DeWitt. Arriving on the
death platform the black cap was
drawn over his head, his arms pinion
ed behind his back and the neose ad
justed.
The crime for which Hitler Johnson
paid the penalty with his life today
was one of the most atrocious ever
committed in the state of Pennsyl
vania. On the night of September 18
last a house occupied by Mrs. Bigler
Johnson and her niece, Annio Ben
jamin, in Macedonia was totally de
stroyed by lire.
About six o'clock the following
morning the neighbors who had gath
ered about the ruins discovered the
charred bodies of the woman and the
little girl. The remains were far be
yond recognition and as soon as possi
ble interment was made.
Since the fire started early in the
evening, piesumably before it had been
bedtime.it was hard for the neighbors
to believe that the two victims were
caught in a death trap. Many would
not believe it and an investigation was
made with the result that on a stone
step where the lire had failed to
sweep there was blood stains.
It was the first clue and was enough
to stir the searchers. Later in the
ruins two oil cans weie picked up and
shortly afterwards a crimson stain of
blood was found from the house cross
| ing the field.
Bigler Johnson, husband of the wo
man was then arrested and later
Charles Johnson and Alonson John
son, brothers of Bigler Johnsou,Nancy
Johnson, a sister, and Mrs. Sopliia
Merritt, mother of the hoys.
The theory of the commonwealth
during the trials of the accused was
that alter the murder of the woman
and child, their bodies were placed in
a bed in the house,the room thorough
ly saturate 1 with oil and the match
applied.
In the parlor of the county jail
Charles Johnsou made a confession
shortly after his arrest. He said that
he and Alonson burned the house hut
did not commit the murder. Charles
claimed that Bigler said to him—-"1
and ma will put Mag out of the way
and you and Alonson must bum ttie
house." Charles claimed that he did
uot want to take a baud, but Bigler
threatened to g<-t him into it even if
lie did not participate iu the foul
crime.
Cliailes in his confession told how
he and Alonson got the oil can where
his mother had left it outside the
house and had then opened the wiud
ow and poured oil wherever they
could. Then they threw in matches
and set it ablaze. After the tire had
spent itself Charles claimed Bigler
said: "They're doue for, she is out
of the way and I won't have to pay
her six dollars a month anymore."
The motive was the estrangement
existing between Bigler Johnson and
his wife. They separated some time
before the tragedy and in the proceed
ings which followed the court ordered
the husband to pay to his wife the sum
of a mouth. He obeyed the man
date, but reluctantly and one month
before the murder, as he was paying
the money lie stated that that was the
last his wife would get from him.
Charles Johnson was the first to be
placed on trial and after several days
were consumed with the otfering of
testimony, he was found guilty of
murder of the first degree. The jury
was out but a short time.
Bigler was next called for trial and
he plead guilty anil threw himself up
on tlie mercy of the Court. His at
torneys were confident of getting a
life sentenee, hut Judge Fanning
promptly condemned him to death
The mother and two children were
later released from jail, the common
wealth having little hope of finding
them guilty with the testimony in
hand. It is believed by the people of
this town that the mother will he re
arrested, as it is said detectives are
still working on the case.
The attorneys for Charles Johnson
are still fighting hard to save his life
and the date for his execution has not
yet been fixed. Bigler Johnson has
made so many confessions that little
credence is placed in any of them.
He now states that after drinking a
pint of alcohol on the way to his
wife's home, he killed her and his
niece and burned the house. Ho min
utely describes his movements before
the crime but that says he has no
knowledge of how he committed the
murder, although ho is quite certain
lie killed them both, and that he was
alone at the time.
An effort will be made upon the
strength of this confession to save the
life of Charles.
The man who died on the Bradford
county gallows today is a descendant
of tbe Johnsons of the Revolutionary
fame, who wielded such influence
among the Mohawk Indians. Tin |
"Pool Tribe" of which Bigler was a I
member was founded by an uncle of
Martin Van Buren, eighth president!
of the United States, named Anthony
Vanderpool.
