VICTORY.
Wo do not believe that Pennsyl
vania Republicans can be coaxed un
der any pretense whatever Into the
Grim or Berry Democratic organi
zations In sufficient numbers to af-
feet the general result. It is true ,
that In these closing days a vicious
onslaught has been made upon the
uepuuncan iicKet, ana especially up
on Tener. But TerinsylVanla has be
come accustomed to vicious on
slaughts. Four years ago tho most
despicable kind of a campaign was
made against Edwin S. Stuart, but a
very great many of his opponents
have lived to bless the day when, In
spite of their votes against him, he
was elected. The Republican ad
ministration has been above re
proach. And now the time has come to
elect his successor, and again the
candidate of the Republican party
is assailed In a most outrageous
manner. He is not attacked as per
sonally dishonest. His newspaper
vlllillers try to create an Impression
where they dare not and cannot
make a charge, the meanest kind of
a campaign. But the candidate has
openly and above board met his de
tractors face to face, and under oath
has defied them with plain and
pointed denials.
"I am satisfied that ho will do
what he promises yo.u he will do,
and I say this sincerely," declared
Governor Stuart at tho great demon
stration in Harrlsburg tho other
night, referring to Tener, and these
promises are to contlnuo the good
government of Stuart He is for good 1
roads to be maintained by the state;
for the development of the public'
school system; for tho stamping out
of consumption and of contagious,
and infectious diseases; for tho best
interests of the peoplo of Pennsyl
vania. And he is also for tho in
dorsement of tho policies of Taft and
of Roosevelt, and for halting the
Democratic wave that has been
threatening to sweep the nation from
Its moorings.
On the other hand wo have Grim,
a regular Democrat, and Berry, with
all of the vagaries that ho has ab
sorbed as a disciple and follower of
Bryan; Berry with his money-borrowing
propensities that mako hlra
totally unfit for the Governorship.
Wo have no doubt whatever of tho
perfect safety of Pennsylvania insti
tutions under the administration of
Governor Tener, and wo believe that
Pennsylvania Republicans by a large
majority think with us.
There is no reason, from a local
standpoint, why Tener should not
bo olected. Tho Republican party
has given a reniarkablo demonstra
tion of.honosty nnd ability through
tho administration of its present
Governor, Edwin S. Stuart. To n
continuance of tho samo high Ideals
Mr. Tenor, stands pledged, nnd Gov.
Stuart Is on tho stump to glvo his
opinion that Mr. Tener means to do
precisely what ho promises and to
I advlso In nil slncortty the olcctldn
! of tlio full Republican ticket. Whoro
Governor Stunrt loads any Republi
can niny follow with ovory conlhlonco
that hu Is doing tho right thing.
Mr. Toner In his speeches gives
evidence of an appreciation of the
high duties of office. He la sound
on the iiucstlons of the tiny, both of
locnl and of general Importance.
NEWS FROM MONROE
COUNTY.
Wo arc in receipt of a copy
of the "Farmers' Advocate," a
paper published at Strouds
burg, dated November t, 1910.
In big typo on the front page
there is an accusation against
Harvey Huffman, who is can
didate for State Senator. The
charge is that Huffman while
counsel for the county commis
sioners charged them extra fees
and was at the same time coun
sel of corporations seeking to
have their assessment reduced.
To be counsel for both sides, is
a serious offense, and no hon-
WIXFKKI) LEWIS.
' est lawyer would dare attempt
I to do so. If li unman was
I guilty of this offense he has no
J claim upon the vote of any
! honest taxpayer. For it is this
juggling of taxes that compells
the poor man to pay more than
his share of the burden.
Let
every voter in Wayne county
who is opposed to this kind of
rascality vote for WINFRED
D. LfcWIb whose record is
clean and who will receive the
support of those who believe in
a just distribution of taxation.
A vote for JACKSON will
be a vote against perpetual of
fice holding. No man in
Wayne county is big enough to
hold the same elective office for
ever. No man has a right to
expect the same political office
at the hands of his constituents
for five successive terms. No
president of our country has
ever asked more than two
terms. There are any number
of men who are worthy of our
votes and whose capabilities
are far greater than those
who have already held of
fice. H. Clark Jackson has
never held a county office, and
now as a candidate he is en-
II. O. .IACKSOX.
titled to the support of the peo
ple of Wayne county. He is
fitted for the position by rea
son of education, character and
ability. He represents the
farmers of our county, who are
entitled to representation at
Harrisburg. lie is man broad
enough to represent the whole
people, to watch and protect
the interests of our manufac
hirers, merchants and work
ingman as well as the agricul
turalists. Vote for JACKSON
and get your neighbor to vote
for him. Be sure you vote in
the circle in the first column.

MR. FUERTH'S TRUTHFUL
STATEMEXT.
Being a recipient of Mr. Fuerth's
latest production to Influence men
to vote for him as Representative,
I take the liberty of calling the at
tention of "all voters" to a state
ment made by him under the head
ing "Just a Line on the Question of
Liquor."
Ho "challenges any previous mem
ber of the legislature to show a
cleaner record of public service, or
one of more absolute fidelity and In
tegrity to his constituents."
But who are his constituents?
Who elected him to office? Has his
"absolute fidelity and integrity" to
the liquor traffic been a blessing, to
Wayne county, or to tho state?
These are questions that confront
every voter and must be taken Into
consideration.
H. C. Jackson has never been
connected with any business or "en
terprise that was Hot Intended ;for
the betterment of mankind. He Is
every inch a man.
JOS. M. COLEMAN.
TENER
"As It Is in tho nation, so it had
been In tho State. Under Republi
can rule this state has had its
greatest prosperity. The Republi
can party has been In control now
for fifty years, with but two,.,ex
ceptions. In that time all tho great
est Improvements have been made.
When tho Republican party came
Into power the state was forty mil
lions dollars In debt, now it does
not owe a cent.
"If I am placed In a position to
influence legislation I will make it
my business to see that the taxes
of the state are more equitably dis
tributed. I would tax certain cor
porations so that tho burden would
bo lightened on those less able to
pay. This is one of the progres
sive policies of tho Republican par
ty. "This state has progressed as no
other state has done, but there Is
still room for improvement. Under
the splendid administration of Gov
ernor Stuart every department of
the state has Increased In efficiency.
At all the meetings throughout
tho stato Air. Tener made this cam
paign pledge:

THAT I WILL, IN THAT HIGH

sylvania Is responsible for tho en
actment of an employers' liability

Ingman tho opportunity of securing
damages in many cases where they
would not have tho right to sue
under the laws of many States. It
Is to bo regretted that undor any
system of liability tho workman
must engage in long and costly liti
gation; and that tho waste of monoy
by workmen and employers In both
prosecuting and dofendlng suits of
this character would go a long way

fight wns conducted In Pennsylvania
In tho year 1890 as now. The Re

wo had a Democratic President and

were disastrous. Now Republicans

VOTERS, READ THIS!
Mr. Editor:
Allow mo please tho UBe of your
paper to correct at least one of the
many false and misleading state
ments published In Mr. Fuerth's
r. A . , , , .
Dcruuiuii liriuieu uiiuurpapcr woicu
he In his desperation Is mailing to
t'10 voters of Wayne county. He
Plainly says that at the late Wayne
county fnlr 1 ptlgsed and repassed
all day long for four full days, In
company with my Keystone manager
a certain tent which he says con
tained an immoral show. I have
no Keystone manager and don't
know to whom ho refers. I passed
the tent he refers to, I think, four
times during the fair. I did not
see or hear of anything wrong at
this place. My department at tho
fair is upstairs in the main building
and I am usually to be found there.
I have nothing whatever to do with
the tents or side-shows. If Mr.
Fuerth's moral nature was so
shocked when he visited this tent he
should have reported It to the prop
er ofllcers and It would have been
expelled. I might take other false
statements and claims printed in the
same 'sheet and prove them so, but
I choose rather not to fret myself
because of evil doers. I will sim
ply ask whafctfhas Mr. Fuerth really
done In his eight years' of service In
the Legislature. Has not our taxes
steadily Increased every year?
In a former article on taxation I
stated that n portion of the liquor
license tax was returned to the coun
ty by the state. I want to say fur
ther, that not enough of It Is re
turned to pay the extra expense It
puts the county to in costs of crimi
nals and paupers caused by strong
drink. Criminal statistics prove this
to be so.

SAYINGS.
If I am elected I propose to follow
his example to the best of my abil
ity. Our object will bo to make the
state the most Important in the
Union.
j'ennsyivania gives seven ana a
half million dollars a year to the
schools of the state, exclusive of
what Is given them by the cities,
counties and boroughs. This is
more money given to the schools
than any other state gives.
My policy will be to have a
more simplified school code and a
now system. Pennsylvania now has
tho greatest schools and the most
In the Union, and all that remains
Is for her to have the great system
of conducting them.
"These are some of tho things
I pledge myself to do as Governor.
And In conclusion, I desire to say
in this presence, that If elected I
will conduct tho office of Governor
with tho idea of benefiting tho peo
ple as a whole, to the credit of this
great Commonwealth.

EXECUTE THE POWER OF AIY

HARRISBURG LETTER.
The present political campaign
presents conditions not often met
within the state of Pennsylvania.
With seven candidates In tho Mold
for Govomor, the fight Is practical
ly narrowed down to two. Grim,
tho Deinocrntlc candidate, It Is gen
erally conceded will bo third In tho
running, with Larkln, tho Prohibi
tionist, polling less than tho usunl
strength of thnt party. This Is not
duo to h'ls lack of popularity, but
to tho fact that Berry will draw
some votes from thnt quarter. Ber
ry will also draw heavily from tho
Democratic party, many of whom
see no possible hope of electing
their own candldnto and will break
away from the party. Many Dem
ocrats will support Tener.
Air. Berry promises, If only they
will elect him Governor, ho will re
veal depths of Jobbery that will
mako tho new Capitol matter seem
small In comparison. This he can
not do, even If by any possibility
ho should be elected. Mr. Shcatz,
who succeeded Air. Berry, would
very strongly resent any Insinua
tion that his management of tho
State's finances was not strictly
honest and clean. Air. Young mado
a faithful and competent Auditor
General, and not even his bitterest
political foes ever Intimated that
anything was tolerated by him that
would not bear the closest scru
tiny. And of tho administration of
Governor Stuart none but tho high
est praise can be given. He has
most carefully guarded the Inter
ests of tho state at every point.
These nre tho three chief adminis
tration officers of the state, and
neither Berry nor any one else can
with all their digging or lid-llftlng,
find the promised scandal. It he
knew of anything crooked, he would
certainly reveal It during the cam
paign, so as to aid his candidacy.
Governor Stuart has asked for
the support of the Republican par
ty for Air. Tener, and his endorse
ment carries great weight. The
governor made a good point when
he said that the Republican party
does not nominate unfit men for
office, and he has satisfied himself
that Tener is worthy. What suits
him Is good enough for a whole
lot of us who will do our best to
bring victory to Tener and the whole
Republican ticket, even down to II.
Clark Jackson.
Air. Jackson Is one of tho best
men Wayne county has presented
for the Legislature for a long time,
and has many qualities that special
ly fit him for the place to which he
aspires. He is not what you would
call a big noise but he can be re
lied upon for effective work of the
kind that will be needed In the
coming session. The interests of
organized labor will receive the
same careful consideration as those
of tho farmer and tax legislation,
of a nature that will equalize neces
sary bonders will be safely cared
for. His life, reputation and char
acter make It Impossible for him
to do otherwise than fair by all in
terests that come before him. He
won his nomination fairly if ever
any one did and should receive the
hearty and sincere support of every
Republican voter In Wayne county.
The county will fare much better by
being represented by a member of
tho majority party. Here Is a man
who will serve his constituents
faithfully.
Whatever doubts existed regard
ing tho re-election of our Congress
man, C. C. Pratt, seem to have en
tirely disappeared and our Demo
cratic friends have ceased to claim
that Klpp would again be chosen
