[ Special Correspondence.] Philadelphia, Sept. 22. Pennsylvania Republicans have been called upon by the national leaders of the party to put forth most streru ous efforts to carry every close coii- gressional district at the coming eléc- tion. The Democrats are making a great canvass to carry the next house, ar. it behooves Republicans everywhere, according to reports received .at the national committee headquarters in New York, to get to work to line up their voters for the party’s nominecs for national representatives. No one doubts that Pennsylvania will roll up a big majority for Taft and Sherman, but unless there sha.l be close attention paid to perfecting the party organization and enlistinz the rank and file of the voters for the congressional candidates in several of the districts there may be a falling off fn the Republican representation from this state at Washington. Pennsylvania has too much at stake to allow this to happen. Her vast industrial and farming in- terests, which have thriven so well under Republican rule, must be pro tected, and there is no better way to insure a continuance of the Republi can party’s fostering policy than ‘to elect Republicans to congress. A Power In Congress. Pennsylvania, with the largest Re- publican delegation of any state in the Union on the floor of congress, has for many years wielded a potential infi.i- ence in shaping national legislation and in blocking the games of’, men who have nothing in common wih the wage earners, the farm owners, the manufacturers and business men of the Keystone state. Men who seek to promote the causc of the importers and others concernel in getting into this country at as chen; a rate as possible the products of for eign nations, of their mills, their fac- tories and their farms, are heavy con- tributors to the Democratic campaizn funds, especially to "the treasury oi the Democratic congressional cm paign committee. They want to break down the toriff to wipe out the “Pennsylvania id a” of protection te ‘American industries and American granger interests, =o that they can reap the benefit of tro mendously increased importations 1 foreign goods and foreign products o all sorts, through their foreign bus ness connections. What Democratic Victery Wouid Mzan Bryanism in the White House, io i evervwhe.e admitted, would ‘be bo enough, but with foreigners domi" ing the action of congres”, esp acig in the matter of tariff, F-nnsy.va.. interests would be terribly je pa: dized and many of them, in time. = solutely destroyed. While business generally throuz out the United States is picking up mills are resuming operations, t: railroads are reporting greatly in & tariff, which has been in existence for ten years, a period longer than has marked the existence of any* previcus | tariff law, is to be revised, it woul i seem evident that such revision shou d be made by the party which has coa- sistently favored the protective princi- ple. The revision should be made as promptly as possible and with as lit- tle disturbance to business conditions as possible. “Already committees of the house and senate are at work on the subject and it is hoped that the revision is being largely discounted in manufact- uring and business circles. On the other hand, a revision by the Demo- cratic party must inevitably mean rev- olution and disaster. The Democratic platform declares in favor of immo2- diate revision, of the tariff by the r=- duction of import duties and generally states that gradual reductions shoul! be made in such schedules as may b> necessary to restore the tariff to a revenue basis. This practically amounts to a declaration in favor of free trade. . “On the other hand the Republicen party declares unequivocally for a re- vision of the tariff by a special session of congress immediately following the inauguration of the next president and affirms emphatically that in all tariff legislation the true principle of pro- tection is best maintained by the im- position of such duties as will equal the difference between the cost of pro- duction at home and abroad, together with a reasonable profit to American industries. «The Democratic party utterly ig- nores any reference to the welfare of American labor, while the Republicen party in its platform specifically d=- clares that its aim and purpose is not only to preserve security against for- eign competition, to which American manufacturers, farmers and producers are entitled, but also to maintain thé high standard of living of the waco earners of this country, who are the most direct beneficiaries of the pro- tective system.” CLUBMEN BLAZE WAY TO VICTORY 1 Pennsylvania League Lines Up For the Campaign. eee ARE FEPDY FOR BATILE Republicans Inaugurate An Aggressive Canvass to Insure the Election cf Taft and Sherman and to Keep tie Keystone State at the Head of the Party Column In November. [Special Correspondence.] Wilkes-Barre, Sept. 22. Pennsylvania’s Republican campaign was formally opened last week at t.c convention of the League of Republ.- can clubs, and there is every assu. ance that the Keystone state will g./. a splendid account of herself at ti election on Nov. 3 next. The clubmen were particularly fcr tunate in having so many men of ta tional prominence as their guests aid to speak at their mass meeting. ’ Vice Presidential Nominee James S.

Senator Penrose, in discussing th political situation a few days age. among other things said: «A protective tariff is essential { American prosperity. The Republica party has always been pledged to th | principle. The Democratic party has | | almost invz )ly leaned towards trade. Ps » and financial have £0 jed Dem legislz the tariff. Imm Congressman Nicholas Longworth Senator Boies Penrcse and John Hc Hammond were among others who a dressed the great assemblage in ti armory. This meeting, the splendid atten: ance at the convention and the demaG. stration made by the mine work" and others in the parade which wa given prior to the opening of t. meeting, left no room to doubt the eu thusiasm for Taft and Sherman amon the Republicans of this state. Aside ‘from the cordial indorseme. of the nominees and the platform ¢ the Republican national conventi:} the club league placed upon recor: strong testimonials to United Stat: Senators Penrose and Knox, and /lale’ on there was an exhibition of earn and sincere approval of a suggesti » from Colonel John R. Wiggins that the members of the league should go ft: work at once to insure the election Republican members of the legislature who will in January next be called upon to elect a successor to Senats: Penrose. Colonel Wiggins was Rp- plauded when he advocated the ro- election of Senator Penrose. Following the re-election of Robert | | development of industry or the im-[ provement of comp€rce, it has taken the lead and maintained the ascend- | ency. It has been opposed and ob- | structed by tie Democratic party, and its achievements o always been in spite of the assa...s and obstructive tactics of the Democratic party. Only once in the past fifty years have the people voted for a change from Re- publican to Democratic rule. They were misled by the arguments of the supporters of Grover Cleveland into believing that tariff revision whica would lead ‘to ultimate free trade would be better for the common peo- ple than the Republican system of pro- tection to American industry. : A Painful Experience. “The experience was a wretched and painful one, as the records of the sec- ond Cleveland administration cleariy demonstrate. From the Cleveland ad- ministration to the present ime Re- publican presidents and Republican policies have been sustained. Under Republicanism thus restored to power. the country has experienced its great- est progress. It has seen the free sil- ver heresy come and go. It has ob- served the cry of anti-imperialism and of government ownership of railroads. These theories were advanced as th- entering wedge for the overthrow of Republican success, but they hav: been met and countered in each suc- ceeding national election. We are now approaching an election where new theories are to be met. | Democratic Experiments. “One of those is the proposition to fmpose upon the government of the United States the business of an in- surance company for the protection of deposits in national banks to the pre- judice of the larger deposits of the farmers and thrifty industrialists of the country who have placed their faith in state banks and savings funds. We are opposed to the introduc- tion of this theory as an experiment in our national life, believing that it is not a government function to protect the money of the schemer and specu lator, while the savings of the hones toiler are to be prejudiced and enda:- gered. “with this new theory advanced as another expedient by the candidate of the Democratic party, this convention has no other concern than to point out its fallacy and the danger tha would follow its attempted introduc tion. We stamp this “new thought” ol the versatile dreamer of Democracy as an insidious and dangerous bit of demagofuery, no more entitled to the respect of the people than was his proposition to sell fifty cents worth of silver bullion to the government of the United States for a good gold dollar. Warning to Republicans. «We warn Republicans upon th" farm: in the factory; in the mine; ani in business circles generally, agains the experiments that are being pro- posed by our Democratic opponents; each and every one of them is simply intended to confuse the political sit- uation and to undermine the founda- tions upon which the prosperity of the country has been reared, in order to discredit the Republican party ana to place the Democrats in power. We believe as firmly today in the protec, tive tariff of the Republican party as we ever did. “We believe the time -has ,com~ when the tariff law may be revised b=” its friends in order to regulate such inequalities as may have arisen or to correct such abuses as may have crept in, but we do not waive our devotion to the protective principle, nor do w: yield in the slightest measure our de mand that American industry shall be a safeguard against unfair foreign competition. «Wwe believe the tariff should be adjusted, so maintained, that every imported article that comes into com- petition with domestic manufacture. shall be made to pay duty represent ing the difference in cost between the wages paid abroad and the wages paid at home, with a reasonable profit to the manufacturer. Our industries have grown and prospered under this sys- tem, and we claim for the Republican party the credit of having made it what it is. . The Two Senators. «Our distinguished senators, the Hon. Boise Penrdse and the Hon. Philande: C. Knox, are to be congratulated upo. the records they have made at Wash ington. The long service of Senato: Penrose upon the important commit: tee of postoffices and postroads, dur ing which time he has seen the growli of the postal business of the country from eighty millions per annum £1 two hundred and twenty millions pz: annum, and during which he has c tributed largely in the developing of the free rural delivery service of the country, is especially noteworthy. «what shall we say of our junior senator?

Under Theodore Roore velt, how different the situation! Mr B. Habgood, of McKean county, to the presidency of the league and the ele“ tion of other officers, a platform was adopted, which among other things says: A Patriotic Party. «The Pennsylvania State League oi Republican clubs in its twenty-seconi annual convention assembled, declares | its unwavering faith in the policies cf the Republican party under which th state of Pennsylvania, in common with its sister states, has grown and pros- | more than fifty years of | pered. its exi state to the | country, In the t 2» the Republican party i has ever been loyal ation patriotic while institutions ad of it has vanced tl the Knox, the attorney general and now the junior senator from Pennsylvania declared the law sufficient to hold the rich malefactor equally with the poor and, still better, he demonstrated the | truth of his opinion by bringing the | illegal combinations to the bar of jus- | tice and overthrowing them.
