Above we give the tabulated official | returns of last Saturday’s Republican primary election. The returns show a clean-cut anti-Scull victory, wkich means that true Republicanism has triumphed over bossism, party misrule, corruption, machine politics and bogus Republicanism. It means atriumph of | the rank and file of our grand old party against the hated Scull ring. Last year the Republicans were cheated out of their right to say who should represent them in office, because AFTER-ELECTION NOTES. Anti-Scull taxes helped to defeat the | ring.

But the committeemen elected this year, who will elect a chairman next year, will turn down any Scull candidate that may bob up. We have elected a majority of the county com- mittee, and that means that the last | vestige of the Scull ring will be wiped out at the next county convention. The convention held on Tuesday was none of ours. True Republicans did not recognize it. Therefore, all the old gang could do was to hold a convention of their own and in their feeble way show some of their old-time impudence. They passed a resclution instructing the candidates nominated for the next Assembly to vote for M. S. Quay for U. S. Senator. But what has the old liek- ed gang to do with instructing W. II. A.

The man with bated breath and car- mine complexion who went to West against his nephew, helped his nephew a good deal more than he harmed him. The Elk | Lick farmers have no use for old soap- sticks from Salisbury borough. Some of the Scullions were much elated when it was telephoned to this town that the Scull candidates carried | New Baltimore borough by three to one. ' But when they learned that only four | votes were polled in that borough, they again sought their hiding places. Frank Stutzman will not need to write any more farmer letters for the | Herald now.

Vogel is one of tha most active Republican workers im Elk Lick township, and he is the best and most competent Committeeman Elk Lick township ever had.
