0f Unlawful Conduct at
the Republican Pri-
mary.
Ex-Chairman Shafer
Asks For The Proof.
Will Pay Large Sum for Proof That
He Exceeded His Rights.
Eyer since the last Republican pri-
mary election was held, several news-
papers that espoused the cause of the
defeated candidates have alleged that
former Chairman Charles C. Shafer
conducted the primary unfairly in the
interest of the successful nominees;
that committeemen were instructed to
do ull manner of things in violation of
the party rules,etc. The charges are,
of course, false, which is well known by
the persons who made tnem, and Mr.
Shafer challenges his accusers to
submit the proof. He has addressed
the following statement to the Chair-
man of the Republican County Com-
mittee with the request that it be pub-
lished in county newspapers.
SoMERSET, PA., Oct. 23.
F. M. Forx~Ey,
Chairman Republican Committee.
Sir:—The newspapers supporting E.
H. Werner, Clinton C. Wagner, Calvin
M. Ankeny and E. A. Walker, charge
me (by innuendo) with having conduet-
ed the late Republican primary elec-
tion unfairly, and in my own interest.
The charge is absolutely and unqual-
ifiedly false.
I subscribed to a pledge that whether
nominated or defeated I would support
the successful nominees of the party,
the same as was required of the other
candidates. And in so far as the rules
of the party provide, my candidacy
was submitted to the Republican voters
without any advantage over mp oppo-
nent.
I have this day deposited in the Far-
mers’ National Bank at Somerset, Pa.,
$500.00 which I will pay to any person
who submits to you conclusive proof
that I requested a single committee-
man to commit any unlawful act in the
holding of the primary election, or that
1 requested any of them to do any un-
fair or unlawful thing in my behalf.
I assert without fear of contradiction
that all committeemen with whom I
came in contact I urged to conduct a
fair primary election. Yours truly,
CHas. C. SHAFER,
Ex-Chairman Republican Co. Com.

Ir any considerable number of the
substantial citizens of Elk Lick town-
ship aré foolish enough to vote either
of the two mongrel tickets. (Orphans’
or Citizens’ Union) next Tuesday, they
will thereby make the mistake of nurs-
ing an ugly, venomous serpent that
will require the combined efforts of the
Republicans and Democrats to kill it
at the next township election, just as
it did last February, when the Socialist
serpent tried to gobble all the township
offices under the misfit name of Citi-
zens’ Party. The same gang of Social-
ists last fall carried Elk Lick township
for their candidate for Supreme Court
Judge, and also came within two votes
of carrying it for Eugene V. Debs, the
Socialist candidate for President.
This year it’s the same old worthless
gang of socialists, anarchists malcon-
tents and soreheads, and they are run-
ning two of the same chumps for office
that they did last year, namely, Social-
ist George May and Socialist Chas. C,
Streng. Think of the gall it must take
to ask straight, honest Republicans to
vote for men who did all in their power
to defeat Roosevelt. It won’t do to
encourage such fellows now, Mr. Sub-
stantial Citizen, for most of them pay
little or no tax, and if you vote with
such fakirs now, you will have to vote
against them at the next township
election, for they will rule and domi-
neer over you if they can, while the
farmers and other substantial citizens
will have to pay the taxes and have no
voice in school and township affairs.
Farmers, they gave you a close hustle,
last spring, and if you vote with that
gang now, you will have a harder fight
next year. Vote either the Republican
or Democratic ticket straight, accord-
ing to your regular politics, but don’t
be foolish enough to be caught nap-
ping by any of the mongrel parties, for
neither of those two parties has one
valid excuse for an existence.

MONEY STILL UP.
The Fake Candidates Would be Glad
for the Money, but Can’t Fur-
nish the Evidence Necessary
to Get it.
SoMERSET, PA., Nov. 1st, 1905.
F. M. For~EY, Esq,
Chairman Pepublican Committee:
I understand that up to this time
Col. “Edwie” Werner and the balance
of his menagerie have not availed
themselves of the opportunity to lift
the $500.00 which I have on deposit at
the Farmer’s National Bank of Somer-
set, Pa., for proof that I committed any
fraud at the primary election held
March 25th, 1905, or that I asked a
single Committeeman in Somerset
county to do any unlawful act in my
behalf at said election. The $500.00 is
still on deposit, and I demand the
proof or they stand convicted of wil-
fully and maliciously lying to the
voters of good old Somerset county in
an effort to get their support.
CHas. C. SHAFER,
Ex-Chairman.
Isn't it funny how things change?
We mean such things as the Scull
brothers and old Lou Smith. After
spending years in denouncing “Edwie”
Werner and some of his fellow bolter
candidates as “independents,” “sore-
heads,” “mugwumps,” ‘“half-breeds,”
etc., they are now trying to boost them
into office on a fusion or mongrel ticket.
What, oh, what has become of their
boasted party regularity, their stalwart
Republicanism? Old Lou &mith, who
left the Republican party in 1882, and
did not return until 1886 or 1887, when
he once more laid claim to being a
stalwart of the stalwarts, used to get
as mad as a wet hen when people re-
minded him of his 1882 bolt. He made
all sorts of excuses and apologies, but
now he is again bolting and openly
boasting of his part in the bolt of 1882.
He now affirms that he has been an
Independent for the last 23 years, and
claims that John Stewart, candidate
for Supreme Judge, has been vindicat-
ed. Nay, nay,old man, not Stewart,
but the Republican party has been vin-
dicated. When Col. Stewart was a
candidate on a bolters’ ticket, and try-
ing to wreck the Republican party,
just as you and the Sculls who have
fed fat at the party's crib for years are
now doing, he was very properly defeat-
ed. As a punishment for the disloy-
alty to the party, he was kept in po-
litical oblivion for 23 years. But now,
after vindicating the Republican party
by returning to it, he will be elected to
the office of Judge of the Supreme’
Court, a position he never could have
reached as a sorehead and bolter. The
anti-Scull faction of today has won its
fight within the party lines, as loyal
Republicans always do if they have a
just grievance. But, just as we pre-
dicted, the Scull brothers left the party
just as soon as they could no longer
control it in the interest of their own
pocketbooks. They have no just grieve
ance, hence must appeal to outsiders
to help them back to the erib.

STATE CHAIRMAN TALKS.
Wise Counsel from Republiean
State Chairman W. R. Andrews.
To THE REPUBLICANS OF SOMERSET
CouNTY :—
I take pleasure in addressing the Re-
publicans of Somerset county, (whose
majorities have always been highly
gratifying to the State leaders of the
party), with an appeal for your active
support at the general election to be
held on the 7th day of November, and
during the few remaining days preced-
ing the election.
Most of you, no doubt, participated
in the primary election of your party,
at which the Republican ticket of your
county was nominated, and you should,
therefore, perform the further duty of
supporting that ticket with your vote
and influence.
If any number of persons should
combine to work an injury to your-
selves and your families, you would
resist the effort with all the force at
your command, and you would be gen-
erously applauded for so doing. This
is the position of the Republican party
at this time; its enemies in different
parts of the state have combined to
work it an injury by reducing the ma-
jorities in which its every member has
always taken great pride, and especial-
ly is this true in your county this year.
This combined attack has touched
the pride of every true Republican
throughout the state who will resent
it by rolling up old-time majorities for
state snd county tickets. I appeal to
you, therefore, as loys! Republicans of
your county, to give your hearty sup-
port—both vote and influence—to the
straight Republican tieket, in order
that your county may maintain its
proud position as one of the leading
Republican counties of the state, and
that you may have the satisfaction of
knowing that you helped to maintain
the party of Lincoln, Grant, McKinley
and Roosevelt against the assaults of
its enemies.
CHIEF OF THE ORPHANAGE.
He Makes an Amusing Speech, but
Not to a Large Crowd.
This time it is not the speech that
“Edwie,” Chief of the Orphanage, didn’t
make, but the speech he didn’t make
to a crowd.
Not a hearer over a dozen were pres-
ent to listen to “Edwie” deliver him-
self of his essay, and they were gotten
together only after an earnest still-
bunt by a couple of the Orphanage can-
didates, who headquartered in Berlin a
day or two prior to the appearance of
their chief, and plead with a sympathiz-
ing few to attend and save “Edwie”
from the humiliation of having to re-
cite his piece to the mocking house
sides and twittering sparrows alone.
“Edwie’s” stumper was visited with
an attack of stumps, and he is not like-
ly to requisition it for further service.
But he stumped, if it was to a crowd-
less crowd. Now. watch for the ap-
pearance of “Edwie’s” “surprise” in the
Meyersdale Commercial, which will un-
doubtedly go out by the thousands,
with editorial expressions intended to
fool the people into believing “Edwie”
really did have an audience in Berlin.
The size of “Edwie’s” Berlin audience
is an indication of the figure the Or-
phanage, as a new born party, will cut
at the polls.
The Republicans will vote it straight,
likewise the Democrats and Prohibi-
tionists, leaving the Orphanage as a
party organization to consist of the dis-
gruntled office-seekers who have never
forgiven the voting public for the drub-
bing it gave them when bossism was
dethroned in this county some years
ago.
It is said “Edwie” wailed largely
about court house matters, as if he did
not know that the court house would
have been built no difference which
element of the county had been in
power, and as if he did not know that
the election of an Orphanage ticket
would not prevent the completion of
the court house and the payment of the
debt contracted for the erection of the
structure.
That Chief “Edwie’s” followers were
chagrinned at the fizzle he was making
in attracting a crowd was indicated by
the fact that the dozen weak in num-
ber who were present stood scattered
at such a distance as to compel the
speaker to split streaks in the atmos-
phere so as to get his recital to their
ears.
As a museum “Edwie’s” Berlin still--
hunt meeting compared very favorably
with the Meyersdale article.—Berlin

Not long ago a Kansas woman wrote
to a Missouri farmer with whose family
she spent last summer and told him
she would like to go again this sum-
mer. but that she objected to the man-
ners of the hired girl and to the fact
that the swine were kept too close to
the house. His answer has put the
woman on the fence. He said:
You can come all right. Hanna has
went, and they ain’t been no hogs on
the place since you and your family
left last summer.—Ex.

had failed to relieve her. After taking
