REPUBLICANS ALERT
Active Work Already Under Way
For the Fall Campaign.
VOTERS ARE BEING ENROLLED
The Ferces In the Several Counties
Have Been Lined ‘Up For a Ther
ough Canvass of the State.
{Special Correspondence.] .
Harrisburg, July 4.
Initial steps have already been ta
ken for an aggressive campaign for
the whole Republican ticket in this
state.
While the orators will not take to
the hustings until Sepetember, that
aiways effective, powerful and mighty
force, the Republican county commit-
teemen, now silently at work, before
many days shall rall by will have
completed the enrollment of over 800,
000 voters. Every registered voter in
the commonwealth, outside of the
cities of Philadelphia, Pittsburg and
Allegheny, will have his name record-
ed in the poll books of these Republi
can committeemen, and within a short
time a canvass will be begun to en-
lighten the chairman of the Republi-
can state committee as to the politi-
cal leanings of every one of these vo-
ters. Local organizations look after
the registrations in the three cities
samed above.
Pennsylvania's superb Republican
organization has not its equal in the
world.
It has time and again demonstrated
its ability to cope with every prob
fem with which it has been confronmt-
ed, and in the contest this fall there
is no reason to doubt that the outcome
will be entirely satisfactory to all
well wishers of Republicanism.
While the average citizen is paying
but little attention to politics teday,
the men who have made possible the
great victories of the Republican party
in this state are alert and active. The
Republican organization: of the Key-
stone state is a great Institution. It
was not constructed in a day, nor in
a year. It has taken many years to
perfect ft; and it fe built upon a saud-
stantial foundation. It rests upom the
intelligence, the public spirit and the
patriotism of the people. Leaders may
come aad leaders may go, but the
great Republican organization of Penn-
sylvania will continue on indefinitely
to represent the will of the Republi-
can voters ef the commonwealth, and
conserve the Interests of the whole
people.
County Chairman to the Front.
The county chairman, that interest-
ing and versatile character recently
portrayed by George Ade, the play-
wright, in a popular comedy, now occu-
ples the centre of the political stage
in this state, Following out imstrue-
tions from Colonel Wesley R. An-
drews, chairman of the Republican
state committee, the county chairman
is a busy man. He is supervising the
copying of the lists of voters filed with
the county cominissioners Into the poll
ooks. furnished’ bythe state commit-
The next move will be to have the
“members of the county committee from
each election district earefully can-
vass their respective districts, and
indicate in the books the politics of
every voter. Other Information of
value to the party organization rela-
tive to the voters will also be gather-
ed. About 6000 members of the coun-
ty committees will be engaged on this
work.
‘Within a short time the chairman of
the state committee will ask for the
appointment of the auxiiliary commit.
tees and the vigilantes In each elec-
tion district ia the state. There will
be about 60,000 of these loyal, earnest
and aggressive Rpublican workers.
Young ‘Meh Are Wanted.
“These are the men .who are the
bone and sinew of the Republican
party in Pennsylvania,” said Chalr-
mean Andrews a few days ago. “They
can’t be bribed, bought or bulldozed.
They represent the best blood of Re-
publicanism of the state: They are
Republicans from principle, end =a
great majority of them give their time
and services to the party without ex:
pectation or thought of personal re:
ward.” %,
A smpeclal effort is to be made this
year to get an exceptionally large
percentage. of young men enlisted for
this work. First voters are to be
encouraged to enlist in the ranks of
the Republican party to go among
their neighbors and interest them in
the campaign, and to plan for the poll-
ing of every Republican vote that can
be got out on election day. Young men
are to be impressed with the fact that
nearly every American president was
first introduced to public life through
the medium of the party organization
in the election precinct. Ambitious
young Pennsylvanians are to be urged
to take up the cause of Republicanism
in their respective localities, and to
actively identify themselves with the
county committeemen and others who
have been looking after the affairs
of the party in their precincts and to
aid them in every possible manner in
the canvass which will shortly be be
gun.
Chairman Andrews and His Plans.
A member of the Dauphin county
Republican committes received a let-
ter from State Chairman Andrews
yesterday, In which, among other
things, he said:
Everything is in excellent shape
for the opening of the campaign.
The meeting of the state commit-
tee, at which Hon. John Stewart
was nominated for the supreme
bench, brought together a repre
sentative gathering of active Re
a
" pominees, who will be anxious to have
“low citizens for his patriotism, his
| appropiation committee.
| Pennsylvanians at this time.
i
publieaas from all over the stata
Reports received as to the sondd
+ tion of the party from every see
tion were of the most gratifying
character. The party was mever
#0 harmonious, nor was there ever
a better spirit displayed toward
the candidates on a ticket. My
daily mail is very large, showing
--@ deep interest in the party work
now under way.
I shall be at the state head-
quarters, on and off, until the see-
ond week in July, when I will go
to my home in Meadville, where
I will attend to all correspondence
until the formal opening of the
Republican state headquarters in
Philadelphia, which will be on or
“ ‘about August 15.
Five Strong Nominees.
The fact- that there are five candi
dates on the state ticket this year,
will mean that the total vote will be
swelled by the ectivity of the per-
senal friends and i:ighbors of these
each of them given a complimentary
vote in his home and nearby counties.
The head of the ticket, Justice John
Stewart, of Franklin county, nomi-
nee for the supreme bench, has a
large following, and is favorably
known in almost every county in the
state. Members of the bar with whom
he is personally acquainted will take.
pleasure in working to swell his vote.
The same can be truthfully sald
also of each of the neminees for the
superior court. Judge Charles E. Rice,
president judge of the su court,
who comes from Luserng county, is
particglarly strong throughout'the an-
thracite coal region. He has won an
enviable reputation as a jurist and
his personal qualities have endeared
him to all who have had intimate rele
tions with him. :
The battle-scarred war veteran, Gen-,
oral James A. Beaver, former gever [
nor and candidate to succeed himself |
on the superior court beach, hes long
commanded the admiration of his fel-
*
sterling worth, and his fairness as a
. judge. His home eoumty of Ceatre, |
and; in fact, every y in the state,
will have a Bost of champions of Judge
Beaver, among them membders of the
CGrahd Army, who will leaps metiing
unéone to meke him run well up with
the head of the ticket in the balloting
in November next. Judge George B.
Orlady, of Huntingdon is kmowa at'f
one of the most affable amd epprtach-
able judges on the beneh in Pennsyl-
vania. He, too, comes wp for re-elec-
tion to the superior court, and it fe
predicted that his candidacy will cop-
tribute materially $0 strengthen thé :
entire Republican ticket in the state.
Republicans of hiz home county are
already engaged in a personal can-
vase in his interest, and they declare
that he will be given one of the lar-
gest votes ever cast for a candidate
from that county.
A Messenger Boy's Force of Character.
J. Lee Plumnier, of Blair county, the
nominee for state treasurer, is counted
upon to poll the largest vote ever cast
for a candidate for state treasurer in
Pennsylvania. His personal integrity
is unquestioned, and his political ca-
reer has been such as to" commend
him to the voters of his section of the
state who have knowa him for years,
and who insisted upon his nomination
at the hands of the Republican state
convention. He began life in the hum-
ble capacity of messenger boy. He
afterward became a brakeman on the
Pennsylvania rallroad, and then by
hard work-and many sacrifices, he had
himself admitted to the bar. His suc-
cess has been an inspiration to the
young men of his section, and his
popularity has been attested on many
an océasion. As a mcmber of the leg-
fslature he worked to bring alsout
many reforms, and his interest in the
eharities of the state was shown in
valuable services as chairman of the
The fact that all ef the candidates
on the Republican ticket were nomi-
nated without a contest, and each dy
a unanimous vote, is an indication of
the sentiment that prevails through-
‘out the state towards the several nom-
inees.
Must Look to Congress.
The fact that a governor and a full
dczlegation to congress are to be elect-
ed next year will add to the interest
of the campaign this fall. The im-
portance of keeping the Republican
lines intact will be appreciated by all
who are familiar with political condi-
tions throughout the country.
There has been observed a tendency
in many sections of the country to re-
vive the agitation for a revision of
the tariff, and it is anticipated that
Pennsylvania's manufacturing inter-
ests will require the full and aggres-
sive support of a solid Republican del-
egation in the next national house of
representatives to protect them from
an onslaught which is bound to come
from the tariff revisionists.
Pennsylvania profits more than any
other state through the protective tar
if, and it is vitally interesting to every
Pennsylvanian that Republicanism of
the stalwart type shall continue in the
ascendency. The fron and steel indus-
tries of the Keystone state have fur-
nished the material for American war-
ships, many of which have been built
by Pennsylvania labor on the banks
of the Delaware. The arsenals in Phil-
adelphia, employing many Pennsylva-
nia men and women, are now engaged
in furnishing supplies and ammunition
for the soldiers and sailors of the
United States. It cannot be denied
that the prestige of her Republicar-
ism has given Pennsylvania first con-
gideration at the hands of the Republi-
cans of the nation, and it is essential
that there shall be no wavering in the
loyalty to the principles or the candi-
dates of Republicanism on the part of

What Luther Burbank Has Done.
In the Country Calendar for July, W.
8. Hardwood gives the following sum-
mary of the work of the marvelous
Californian plant-breeder:
“For thirty-five years Mr. Burbank
has been at work creating new forms of
plant life and improving old ones. In
that time he has crested by breeding
and selection. more than 2500 distinet
species of plants.
“Some of his creations are:
“The primus berry, a fruit unknown
before, made by the union of a blaek-
berry and a respberry,
scientific men said was impossible.
“The white blackberry, very beauti-
ful, with a delicate flavor.
“The phenomenal berry, a similar
creation, a eross between a raspberry
and a California dewberry, having the
color of a raspberry and the shape of a
blackberry, but larger than either, far
more productive and with a flavor sur-
passing both.
“The plumcot (result of the union of
the apricot and the plum), of rare flavor
| and richness, again disproving the die-
| tum of the scientists.
“A plum with no pit, and one with
the flavor of the Bartlett pear.
“A walnut first so thin of shell that
the birds could peck through it, after-
ward bred backward along the path it
had come until a shell of the required
| thickness was secured.
| “He bas produced a new thornless
cactus, a combination of many other
varieties, which bears a fruit, too, for
man and beast, and which will redeem
the desert places of the earth ; he has
| done all these, and many other marvel-
| ous things not mentioned here for lack
| of space.”
