11.11! SIB Alii! ACTIVE
Republicans Preparing For Conven
tion of Stat • League at Easton.
NATIONAL ORATORS EXPECTED
Reports From All Parts of the State
Indicate That the Party Is In Fine
Shape.
[Special Correspondence.]
Harrisburg, Aug. 15.
The Republican state organization
proposes to give every assistance and
encouragement to the young Republi
cans of Pennsylvania to make the com
ing convention of the State League of
Republican Clubs one of the most suc
cessful in the history of the League.
The convention, which will be held
In Easton next month, promises to bo
one of the largest held In recent years,
and the local committee of arrange
ments is planning an exceptionally
good program for the entertainment of
the delegates and other guests who
will visit their city during the con
vention week.
Clubmen Meet Andrews.
Chairman Wesley It Andrews, of the
Republican State Committee, has had
several conferences with officers of the
State League, and he Is heartily co
operating in their efforts to get the
active Republicans of the state to in
terest themselves in the election of del
egates to the convention by th«dr home
clubs.
it is pointed out that President
Roosevelt lia.s from the outset of his
political career looked upon the Re
publican clubs as a powerful factor in
the winning of campaigns, and hi" has
nover missed an opportunity to com
mend the work of the vigorous and
progressive young Americans who are
tho bono and sinew ol the Republican
League of the Nation.
In his last national campaign the
president Insisted that the Republican
national committee must give every
consideration to the young men who
were in charge of the organization of
Republican clubs throughout the coun
try, under the auspices of the National
League, and he has since attributed
much of the glory of the victory In
that campaign to the Young Republi
cans who marched behind the club ban
ners on whli h were Inscribed the words
"Roosevelt, Protection and Prosper
ity."
Duty of Young Republicans.
Pennsylvania Republicans In thu
present state campaign expect the club
men of the commonwealth to do their
full duty, and there is every reason to
believe that there will be no disap
pointment on that score.
It Is announced from Kaston that the
Republican < luhs of the entire county
of Northampton are preparing to enter
tain the visitors, and that all will tie
welcome who come with the delegates
and will receive the same courtesies
and hospitality as the official represen
tatives of the clubs.
A special committee Is at work get
ting Republicans of national fame to
promise to address the great mass
meeting which will be held on Septem
ber i!'i. There are already assurances
of the presence of some of the best
known and most popular Republican
orators in the country. All of the can
didates on the Republican state ticket
have been Invited, and many of the
most prominent Republicans of the
soveral counties of tho state are ex
pected to attend the gathering.
From many private interviews with
active Republicans from every section
of the state anil through the heavy
correspondence that is daily received.
Chairman Andrews is more than d<v
lighted with the reports as to the con
dition of the Republican party and
the sentiment ol the voters through
out the state. Though the campaign
has not been falrlv opened there are
evidences of unusual activity among
the rank and ille of the It< publican
forces
The attacks of the Democrats s> rve
to stimulate the Itepuhlli an workers
to renewed activity and are actually
beneficial to the Republican organiza
tion.
Danger Lies In Apathy.
It Is admitted on all sides that the
greatest danger to a majority party
In what ts termed an "off year" cam
paign lies in the apathy of the average
voter. When no great prlzo, such as
the presidency or a governorship. Is
at stake there is likely to he a feeling
of Indifference or at leaHt of over-con
fidence, particularly after the polling
of such a tremendous Republican ma
Jorlty as was given to Roosevelt for
president In Pennsylvania.
It will devolve upon the Republican
managers throughout the state to see
to It that every Republican voter Is
Impressed with the Importance of
casting his ballot In November next
so that the Republican lines shall
remain Intact and that the party shall
be In shape to mass its forces In solid
phalanx In the congressional and gu
bernatorlal struggle which will tak«
place ne*t year
Now," said Mr. Hansard, who was

ARE PLEDGED TO REPORM9
Republicans For Personal Raglstrstlon
and Other Popular Measures.
The Committee of Twenty-ono, load
lng business men, bankers, lawyers
and other men of affairs of the Quaker
City, all members of the famous Union
League, who seek reform within the
Republican party, are being compli
mented by Republicans generally for
their success In bringing about th©
action of thw Republican city commit
tee In appointing a committee to peek
to put an entirely new ticket of emi
nently acceptable Republican candi
dates In the field in Philadelphia and
fhe pledging of tho party organization
to personal registration for tho cities
and for ballot reform and other meas
ures demanded by the people.
Republicans who bellovo in their
party strongly protest against tho ac
tions of those who strive to mako
political capital against the Republi
can party in the state out of conditions
In the Quaker City. On this point the
Philadelphia Inquirer, among other
things, says:
"If thfre has been crime committed
against the people of Philadelphia tho
people will demand punishment and
punishment will come. No right mind
ed citizen of any party or political
organization would for a moment
shield a criminal or a criminal con
spiracy or a criminal organization, po
litical or otherwise. Certainly the
great Republican party of Philadel
phia and Pennsylvania —and hundreds
of thousands of voters compose it—is
not the defender of wrong-doing.
"To what extent the newspaper
charges are true —whether tho crimes
that have been alleged nro largely
imaginative or are based upon fact ■
we do not know. The courts will de
cide that—should there be trials. Rut
even were they blacker than have been
painted, what argument would that bo
for smashing the great Republican
party of Pennsylvania? What havo the
hundreds of thousands of Republican
citizens to do with the acts of indi
viduals?
"A year ago the whole country was
ringing with exposures of crimes In
the postofllce department at Washing
ton Republican officials were the
thieves. Democratic newspapers and
orators held these crimes up as a
reason why the Republican party
should he defeated. Judge Parker led
the assault. 'Turn the Republican
party out and all would be well.' That
was the campaign cry. Rut the people
refused to hold tho Republican party
res|K>nslble for the pllferlngs of Indi
viduals.
"Today there are scandals in the
agricultural department A sweeping
Investigation will be made. Rut are
the Republican people of the United
States going to hold themselves re
sponslble for what a few persons have
been doing?
"Why. then, is the Republican party
of Pennsylvania to he slaughtered he
cause of an investigation in Philadel
phia?
"That is what, tho Committer of
Twenty-one, members of the Union
League, want to know, and we think
they have the right of it
"They believe that the Republican
party Is quite big enough to do all the
reforming that Is necessary. With vot
ing lists purged of bogus names, with
the promise of a personal registration
law on the statute book*, with an elec
tion In November thart will he per
fectly honest, with a Republican city
ticket to he made up of names uncon
nected with politics —In other words,
with reforms Instituted by the Repub
lican party Itself —they seee no reason
why the hundreds of thousands of
honest, upright Republican voters of
Philadelphia and Pennsylvania should
cut the throat of their own party.
"And there Is no reason."
Prediction From Plummer's Home.
In commenting ui>on certain news
paper reports that have been printed in
Democratic papers uffectlng the Repub
lican candidate for state treasurer, Ed
itor W. 11 Schwartz, of the Altoona
Tribune, says:"The Tribune wishes
to remark that for some months past
some small creature, supposed to live
In this county, has from time to time
been sending out telegrams to certain
eastern newspapers interested in the
downfall of the Republican party, all
of which are pure Inventions, and all
of which are Intended to convey the
Impression to distant readers that Hon.
J. Lee Plummer, Republican nominee
for state treasurer. Is unpopular In
his home county. In previous elec
tions when Mr. Plummer was a candi
date for the suffrages of his fellow cit
izens he always received a very com
plimentary vote. The Tribune, which
Is seldom mistaken concerning political
results, now wishes to place on record
th» prediction that Blair county will
give Mr. Plummer at the next election
the largest majority ever given a can
didate in an off year."
Plummer Stronger Every Day.
"The scheming Democrats, who hope
to profit at the fall election In tho
state by the Philadelphia upheaval,
are doing their lewl best to force the
Republican nomlnoe for state treas
urer, J. Lee Plummer, off the ticket,
but Republican State Chairman An
drews says Mr Plummer will not only
stuy, hut that he will be elected by
the usual off year majority," says the
editor of the Chronicle and News, r>f
Allentown. "The Democratic leaders
betray their hypocrisy In trying to
get Mr Plummer off the ticket, for if
he be as weak a candidate as tho al
leged reformers declare he Is, Isn't If
logical to conclude that the Democrats
would want nothing better than to
keep Mr Plummer on thi ticket? As
a matter of fact. \fr Plummer has be<»n
strong from the very -»turt aud Is
gaining In strength dally."

AN EXPERT TALKS
ON MACADAM
W. P. Kitin of Columbia, with his
wife, is spending a few days in this
city as the guest of Mr. and Mrs.
George A Meyers, Walnut stroet. Mr.
Kinn was a former resident of this
city leaving hero in 1877. Mo is at
present Street Commissioner of Col
umbia, :t position which lie has filled
with the exception of brief intervals
for nearly twelve years past.
Mr. Kinn is much interested in look
ing nil the old landmarks of Danville
with which his early life was associat
ed. lie is pleased with the improve
ment on Mill street, although he was
candid enough to say that ho has tint
little admiration tor the remainder ot
our streets, which ho thinks are In
ahont the same condition they were in
when lie left Danville nearly thirty
years ago even if not worse.
Mr. Kinn is a warm advocate of
macadamised streets and points with
pride to what has beeu accomplished in
this line in Columbia. That town,
which contains a population of 18,000,
has not a single paved thoroughfare
but maintains a splendid system of
macadamized streets, which makes
the town unique among other munici
palities. To show how thoroughly the
streets ate constructed and what at
tention is given to the detail of drain
age Mr. Kinn stated that no matter
how heavy nor how prolonged the rain
in less than live minutes after the rain
ceases a person can walk across any of
the principal streets without getting
his shoes muddy and all this in face
of the tact tfc/at Columbia has no sys
tem of sewers.
Columbia employs limestone exclu
sively in the construction of its streets,
although Mr. Kinn agrees that cinder
makes a very good bottom for the
macadam and if properly crushed may
be used to advantage instead of lime
stone in one or more of the courses.
In maoadamiziug streets (Columbia
employs about the same method follow
erl in constructing the State highway.
An excavation is made to reach the
subgrade. Tlio first coarse applied is
one of limestone, six inches in the
center and slanting to four inches at
the sides. This is rolled, after which
another course of limestone smaller in
size 2'.j to 8 inches thick is applied,
which is also rolled. The top courso
is made up of gravel or screenings of
crushed limestone, sprinkled and roll
ed.
The gutters, which the property
owners have to take care of, reoeive
great attention. The- use of cobble
stones are not permitted ; brick in all
instances being used to pave the gut
ters. Hack of the gutter over a space
fifteen inches wide the Borough lays a
row of flat stones, which prevents
washing and assists to carry ofT the
water. The streets a" a rule are sixty
feet wide, which in addition to the
roadway leaves ample width for a
pavement and a space betweeu the lat
ter and the gutter which is kept neat
ly sodded and where trees are cultiv
ated.
Oil the whole the streets of Colum
bia, tire drainage and all are so satis
factory to the inhabitants that they
have uouse for paved streets, which
to begin with cost infinitely more than
macadam, are difficult and expensive
to keep clean, and are hard on horses,
cansing, especially during the winter,
many to fall sustaining broken legs or
other injury.
Mr. Kintr is surprised that Danville,
considering its close proximity to
limestone, has not long ago macadam
ized its streets. Tho natural drainage
at many places is excellent; nowhere
is it had. All that is needed is to bring
some practical skill into play, con
structing a road according to scientific
principles.
It is a question whether Mr. Kinn's
views are not entitled to a fjood deal
of consideration. With tho single ex
ception of Mill street the streets of
Danville arc little short of a disgrace.
Heyond i» couj le of squares 011 East
Market street where paving is talked
of nothing permanent in the way of
street repairs is contemplated Here
and there wheie mud holes occur a
cart load «if cinder is dumped on the
streets, a system of patching which
renders the street unsightly in appear
ance and uncomfortable to drive upon.
Ttie harvest of all this will be plenty
of mud in times of rain and volumes
of dost when the weather is dry.
The question might be asked wheth
er the time and outlay of money re
quired to pave two or three squares of
East Market street as contemplated
would not macadam that thoroughfare
over the greater part of its length and
insure a better ami a more permanent
job.
Take other parts of town where pav
ing is literally out of the question as
the several squares on Mill street be
tween Center street and the Horough
line and no sane reason can be adduc
ed why a macadam roadway should
not be constructed. The Reading Iron
(Jompany is the sole owner of the land
on the w. st side of Mill street bet ween
the two points above named and to re
paid paving as possible there would
be to assume that the corporation
would bo willing to incur a very
heavy expenditure indeed. This does
not alter the 1 »*ot that one of the worst
pieces of road in town lies on its prin
cipal thoroughfare, immediately be
tween a paved street and a finely con
structed State Highway. The impres
sion upon strangers as they jolt over
the uneven surf ace of this street.strug
gling either with the mud or the dust
may be left to the imagination of the
reader.

town. The train was flagged at a
grove near which the members of a
Unitod Rrethern church were conduct
ing a festival. The Williamsporters
are both lovers ot ice cream. They
inveigled the conductor togo with
them to the festival and the trio en
joyed a dish of vanilla and strawberry
cream. After the men had again en
tered the cars the Williamsporters
jarred the conductor in a pleasant
manner by saying that they took him
along only so that the train would not
leave without them. The railroader
retaliated by stating that ho did not
care for that as ho was as fond of ice
cream as the gentlemen of the cloth
wjre of chicken.—Williamsport Gaz

WORKS WONDERS.
A Wonderful Compound ~oures Piles, Ec
zema, Skin Itching, Skin Eruptions,
Outs and Buises.
Doan's Ointment is the best skin
treatment, and the cheapest, because
so little is required to cure. It cures
piles after years of torture. It cures
obstinate ca.-es of eczema. It cures all
skin itching. It cures skin eruptions.
It heals cuts, bruises, scratches, and
abrasions without leaving a scar. It
cures permanently. Danville testimony
proves it.
D. C. Williams, slater, of 204 Low
er Mulberry street. says:"l used
lioan's Ointment some years ago and
found it a most excellent remedy for
the purpose for which it is intended.
It is the only remedy I ever found
which gave me permanent relief from
itching piles from which 1 had suffer
ed tor a long time. Anyone who has
ever had pries knows what suffering I
endured before 1 used Doan's Oint
ment. The burning and itching was
almost intolerable night and day. ami
although I tried dozens of ointments,
salves arrd lotions I got no relief. 1
heard so much about Doan's Ointment
that 1 procured a box. The first ap
plication gave me almost instant relief
and in a short time 1 was cored. That
was eight years ago and I have had no
return of the exasperating affliction
since. I recommend Doan's Kidney
Pills highly."
