history of Pennsylvania. Mr. Wana-
started out under the most un-
The machine was
in absolute control. It had the
Republican party in the state by the
Quay and Andrews and all the
minor bosses were full of arrogance
and impudence. They bosted of what
they would do, not what they might
do. No man disputed the assertion that
Quay could nominate on first ball
whoever he wanted for governor. f
Now all is changed. The whirlwind
campaign of Wanamaker has altered
every condition. Quay is weak kneed,
and would break away from William
A. Stone's canvass if he could. Jt is
not certain that Quay can nominate his
man on first ballot. Andrews is still
arrogant and boastful, and declares
that William* A. Stone will be nomi-
nated. Quay’'s strongholds have been
shaken. Beaver county has gone
against Quay—his own cqunty. Ma-
chine ridden Huntingdon has thrown
off the yoke. Everything in the bosses’
camp is topsy turvey. It is possible
that Quay may be able under the lash
of Andrews and his crowd, who are
the bosses of Quay, to nominate Will-
lam A. Stone at Allegheny. If he does
then Pennsylvania can prepare far the
most tremendous political battle it
has ever known. In view of this the
closing words of ex-Postmaster Gen-
Wanamaker’'s speech are almost
prophetic. Here they are:

above all that the voters of Pennsyl-
vania are not decrepit slaves, but vig-
Qrous freemen abundantly able to sink
ahy fleet they train their guns upon.
In the further course of his sneech
closing the campaign, on Friday night,
at Phocnixville, Mr. Wanamaker said:
PILLAGED THT TREASURY.
In previous speeches I have analyzed
nine distinct parts of the hydra-headed
political machine that has prostrated
manhood, prostituted every branch of
the state government, and pillaged the
people's treasury. Tonight I will speak
briefly cf part No. 10 of the Quay po-
litical machine that rules Pennsylva-
| nia.
Part No. 10 of the machine is the
political manipulation of the great
sums of money given by the state for
educational, benevolent and charitable
purposes, The insolent and crushing

political slaves to publicly blaspheme
