(From Our Own Correspondent.) Harrisburg, May 24.—A day that will be memorable in the history of politi- cal campaigning put in by Ex-Postmaster General John at 6 o'clock in the morning and ended at 11 o'clock at night, through the southern part of Hunting- don county, and his progress was a tri- umph. It was the most remarkable the state. The first meeting scheduled was at historic Shirleysville at 8:30 in the morning, an hour when people in the | to work or get- ! cities were just going And yet the town hall was crowded before 8 o'clock with hear the man who is making such a splendid fight against the machine on behalf of better politics. When meeting was opened at 8:30 standing room was in demand. Nothing like it was ever seen in Huntingdon county. At Saltillo 700 people had gathered by 10:30 to hear Mr. Wanamaker. Both at Shirleysville and Saltillo, and later at Shade Gap, people drove a dozen buggies to listen to the ex-postmaster general. At Orbisonia in the’ evening 700 people packed the hall while two brass bands made the welkin ring to the enthusias- tic cheers of the citizens. After an hour’s meeting at Orbisonia Mr. Wan- amaker rode 11 miles on a special train to address another night meeting at Mt. Union, where another packed house awaited him. There have been seme signal victories maker over the ma- weeks. In the for county Wanamaker, In Schuylkill, it was claimed Wanamaker giving where would he got four Vanamaker is no: delegates.

The cup of its wrong doing is nearly full, the world has moved on, and it | sees not, neither will it hear. Better if read and when David waxed stronger, and Saul waxed weak=- er and weaker. Then they might have paused in their high handed disfran- chisement of the. people and their elec- tors to the June convention. A great popular verdict of condemna- tion of the discreditable tactics of party rule must follow as sure as spring summer and autumn follow winter. IIe who will not answer to the rud- der must answer to the rocks, is an old proverb. Were officeholders generally taxpay- ers things would be different. As they ride over Pennsylvania they say: “All these acres have been presented to us to raise taxes upon.” The wheat crop and the corn crop and the tobacco crop greatly vary, and sometimes are very poor, but the crop of taxes never varies except to increase, and this makes a politician's life one long, loud laugh, Day before yesterday Northampton county, the heretofore stronghold of Quay and Reederism, her Republican primaries, and I bring to the people of Huntingdon county to- night her message of warning to the bosses who are planning to ‘place a de- stroying mine under the old Republi- can ship of Pennsylvania. Since 1858 the Reedef® dynasty has ruled supreme in Northampton county. The distribution of federal offices and oflicial favors by the Reeders for all these years, through the grace of the Cameron-Quay-Andrews machine, has on that Sunday they had litical despotism that has been abso- lute until yesterday. It is the first time the county has ever been invaded and the dictatorship of Frank Reeder dis- | puted. SITUATION IN NORTHAM. TON.

METHODS OF THE MACIIINE. I have discussed in other speeches the | many different ways that machine leg- ! islation is driven through the legisla- | ture. The session The methods of intimidation, the uses of money, the promise of office, the pressure from great corporations, the wholesale distribution of passes and the aw evading rules of legislative prac- | tices are further supplemented by the | boldest and most flagrant violations of certain officers of the legis- | the law, by lature who keep the record of roll calls. When first my attention was called to this matter it seemed (0 me so mon- ttrous that I was loath to believe it, $.t a careful inquiry and examination in | orders. | | have grown weary spoke through | i thus | found that this one disputed vote stand | a LI necess anti- | 1 Q -Ree le ics rs by { Quay-Reeder Republican newspaper in | be padded, | unable In Easton, the home of Reeder, where | ing the-Jast | ous iter, | stated was at that and which has heretofore | | tion in truth or in fact. | ter of the 6th inst.. has provad its entire correctness, and the statements I make touching this matter nre susceptible of the fullest proof Many and very important laws are today upon the statute books of Penns'lvania that are said to have never received the constitutional ma- jority of votes in the legislature, which .were passed by being deliberate- ly counted in by the clerks ¢f the house or senate. Millions of your money is appropri- ated every session by marking up the votes of members who are not present during roll call. The names of many members are recorded as having voted on scores of epypropriation hills that have passed by just the constitutional majority, or at least slender margins, who were ahsent at the time the bills were considered, and who did not re- spond to the roll call. The marking up and padding of roll calls on important bills is openly and boldly done. It re- quires the most constant vigilance on | the part of anti-machine men to sce that the roll calls are kept correct dur- ing the session of the legislature. The closing days and particularly the last night of the session, when members and indifferent by overwork, and when legislation is rush- ed through with dangerous and almost criminal haste, then it is that the rank- est kind of fraud is attempted or per- petrated. SHAMELESS FRAUD senator William H. Andrews, late of Crawford county, who Just zw steering the state political machine to- ward the ‘WW. A. Stone rapids,” would probably never have profaned the halls of the state senate but for a most shameless fraud alleced to have been committed by a clerk under the di- rection of the machine in making up the legislative rolls. . Andrews was de- feated for the legislature, and his op- ponent given a which legally entitled his name to be placed upon the roll. instead of that of Andrews. But a chief clerk, by orders it is stated from Senator Quay, in making up the roll during an open ses- sion of the house deliberately substi- tuted the name of Andrews for that of his opponent. Under thé law the man who holds the certificate of election is RECALLED. is entitled to his seat as a member of the | legislature until the election contest is decided, but in this case the man hold- ing the regular credentials was depriv- ed cf his seat to make room for An- drews through the unlawful act of a machine controlled clerk, who illegally made up the roll. Thus a man who according to returns was elected a member of the legislature by the peo- ple, and who is said to have held proper credentials, was never allowed to sit a day in the legislature. The renort of the elections committee, under control of Quay and Andrews, was only a mat- ter of form, and of course Andrews was permitted to retain his seat. HOW ROLLS ARE PADDED. If roll calls are questioned and the names of members who were not pres- ent are found to be recorded as having voted, it has been held that the roll can only be corrected by the personal statement of the member whose vote is questioned. No matter if it is is ary to make the constitutional In this manner a roll may and though the legislature has full knowledge of the fact, it is to correct it. The bill can be sent immedialely to a machine con- trolled goverior, who can sign it, and it becomes a !aw and can in no way be majority. | affected, though later a dozen members might testify they had not voted. Dur- night of the last session an effort was made to pass the notori- nool bill. After the roll had been called Renresentative Moore, of Ches- demanded a reading of the roll The chief clerk tried to evade it. The | demand for a reading was renewed, and | again it was refused. TIinally the chief h when clerk was forced to read the roll, it was discovered that several members who were absent were recorded as hav- ing voted, The climax was reached when the name of Representative Sloan, of Washington county, who it ivas time in Denver, was read as having voted for the His name is still recorded as hav- voted on the pool bill in the af- firmative (Legislative Record, page 3,708), and on the same day, July 1, 1897, he is recorded as having voted for Colo., bill. ing | the Grant monument junketing trip ex- pense bill (Legislative Record, page 2,714), and also for the machine reve- nue bill (Legislative Record, page 3,712). BARTER OF POSTOFFICES. I think it proper to add a few words about the barter and sale of postoflices in this commonwealth, which has been discussed very generally by the public. On the 10th of this month I received the following letter, nct mailed to me until three davs after it was published in the newspapers throughout the state: Washington, D. C., May 6. Hon. John Wanamaker, Philadelphia, Pa. Dear Sir: The statement made by you concerning the sale, or offering for sale, of the apvointment of postmaster at Tyrone, and my acceptance of, or agreement to accept, $3,000, or any | other sum of money for sald office, as ! published in the Philadelphia Press and | Somerset Standard, is absolutely and It has no founda- I respectfully demand that you give this denial the same publicity that you have given your statements, and I request. the name of your authority that I may give him an opportunity to answer in court.
