Slavs Protest Again.
Some Hungarian-born Americans are
still excited and Indignant over the
banner sent to thl9 country by the Na
tional League of Hungary and received
with much ceremony three weeks ago.
Anthony S. Ambrose, supreme president
of tho National Slavonic Society, has
forwarded to Secretary Hay, at Wash
ington, a second letter of protest and
Inclosed a document, which, he believes,
shows a conspiracy on the part of some
officials of the Hungarian government
to gain political control In tho United
States.
Thl9 document, President Ambrose
writes, Is ministerial communication
No. 393, dated February 4, 1902, and
addressed by the Hungarian minister of
religion and Instruction to tho cardinal
prince primateof Hungary. Ostensibly,
Its bearing is on "the spiritual care of
Hungarians who have emigrated to
America." In his letter President Am
brose say 9:
"A perusal of this secret ministerial
order inclosed will reveal to you, I be
lieve:
"That the Hungarian minister of edu
cation Is anxious to preserve the Hun
garians living in the United States to
their faith and country;
"That an apostolic visitor Is to bo ap
pointed at Washington and maintained
there at the expense of tho Hungarian
government, to keep the Ruthenians
and the Slovaks in America under his
surveillance;
"That tho Internal politics of Hun
gary render this step in the United
States advisable."
Exciting Primaries.
The primaries held on Saturday even
ing to elect delegates to tho Democratic
county convention at Wilkesbarre to
morrow were characterized by much
disturbance at tho Fifth and Sixth ward
polls. At the latter the contest was
very spirited and a dispute over the
rights of certain persons to vote resulted
in the free use of fists.
At tho former poll a dispute arose
after something over 100 ballots bad
been cast, and during an argument that
ensued the ballot-box was spirited away
by a member of the board and the poll
was necessarily closed. The fight will
bo carried to tho county seat.
In the Fourth district the followers of
Garman claim a majority of the dele
gates. If this Is true, it is the first
time in some years that the Lenahanites
have been defeated in the district.
Freeland will be represented In to
morrow's convention by the following:
First ward, Hugh Alalloy, Jr.; Second,
John Volkonand; Third, Frank Gal
lagher; Fourth, Patrick McGeehan;
Sixth, William Gallagher. From the
Fifth tho contestants are Peter O'Don
nell and Daniel Slattery.
It is difficult to tell which faction of
the party has triumphed in tho county.
There Is no doubt, however, about tho
renomination of County Commissioner
Finn. Both factions concede that he
has come out victorious.
Strikers' Nineteenth Week.
Today began the nineteenth week of
the coal strike. The date on which
Senator Piatt and others predicted that
the strike would end has passed and the
hope which was Instilled because of that
prediction has been succeeded by a feel
ing that the end Is still far off. The re
iteration by tho coal presidents during
the week that no concessions would bo
made, and the resolutions passed by.
local unions of the United Mine Workers
renewing their allegiance to their offi
cers and pledging themselves to continue
the strike until concessions are granted
show that neither side to tho controversy
is weakening.
The spasmodic efforts of Pennsylvania
politicians to end the strike are not
taken seriously by the leaders on either
side, and it is asserted that their meddl
ing has nullified tho work of others who
were engaged in promoting peace and a
settlement. Until they and .the'i" buf
foonery pass off the stage and make way
again for those who are sincere the
operators are not expected to make tho
promised moves which will terminate
the struggle. Corporations are not
going to do tho bidding of their own
creatures, aud that is what would re
sult if the coal road presidents acceded
to the requests of the political coterie
who have pushed themselves forward
during the past ten days.
Ferry Nominated.
Bernard J. Ferry, of llazleton, was
nominated at llazleton at 3.30 o'clock

fore the vote was taken. Ferry's nomi

GREATER THAN GREAT.
The Coming Allentown Fair to be Held
September 23 to 20.
The Great Allentown Fair will bo held
for four days from September 23 to 26,
and from present indications will bo one
of the greatest exhibitions in the histroy
of tho society. It Is, without questiou,
lu tho front rank of best and largest
agricultural and Industrial exhibitions
In tho country. It is annually visited by
thousands of people who repeat their
visits regularly, and there is no County,
State, Pan-American or World's exhibi
tions held anywhere that can boast of
such large crowds as are seen yearly at
the "Great Allentown Fair." Its pop
ularity is world-wide, not only as an
exhibition for the farmer and mechanic,
tho merchant aud house-keeper, but
also for the horseman and all lovers of
sport.
The races this years will number fif
teen for the week and will be the most
exciting and hotly contested, as there
will be more than 810,000 paid for speed
alone, besides a large amount for pre
miums and exhibits. The society has
one of the best half-mile tracks in the
world as was shown by the wonderful
performance last year of Prince Alert,
who, on two different occasions, equall
ed tho half-mile track record of the
world of 2.04%, a record which prob
ably no other track in the country can
claim.
Tho free attractions before the grand
stand will bo of a very interesting nature
secured at an enormous expense, includ
ing baloon ascensions, cycle whirl, a
troupe of Japanese vaudeville artists
and a great many other attractions too
numerous to mentlou. Besides band
concerts there will be many other
unique and other special attractions, all
included for one price of admission.
The midway will be unusually largo
and attractive and will surpass in char
acter and excellence anything ever shown
at any fair In tho county.
All the railroads will run excursions
and sell excursion tickets at greatly re
duced prices good for the whole week,
and daily special excursions will be run
from all points. It certainly will he the
place to go for all those who want to see
the greatest fair in tho country.
Opportunity to Secure Employment.
The Philadelphia North American
maintains a free employment bureau at
1309 Filbert street, Philadelphia, to as
sist all those who seek situations, or em
ployers who are looking for help. At
the present time there is a dearth of
servant girls In Philadelphia, and many
applicants for servants, through neces
sity, aro disappointed. There is a great
demand for first-class German, Swedish
and American girls for domestic work.
If tho young women in the communi
ties thoughout tho state who are desirous
of securing positions in Philadelphia will
communicate with tho North American
free employment bureau it will obtain
places for thoin without charge. Posi
tions are dally being secured for both
men and women, who express them
selves as being highly pleased with the
service.
The bureau will be pleased to receive
applications of all young men and women
who contemplate positions In Philadel
phia and viciuity.
THE RECORD OF
PENNYPAGKER
Why Quay Wants Him to
Bs Chosen Governor.
Starting Out as an Indepen
dent, He Deserts the Cause
of Reform and Becomes a
Suppliant Tool of tne Ring.
Philadelphia, Sept. 15. lt is the
privilege and duty of American citi
zens to be accurately informed concern
ing the history, character and evident
purpose of thore who come before them
as candidates for public office. There
never has been presented as an aspir
ant for the governorship of this state
a man so little known beyond his home
limit as Samuel W. Pennypacker. It
is proposed herein to make a faithful
transcript of the record, that every vot
er may read for himself. For more
than forty years Pennsylvania has been
the scene of a contest unknown else
where, a battle for individual and con
scientious freedom of thought and ac
tion against, machine despotism; for
clean politics against degrading ard
corrupt methods; for honest, economi
cal and efficient administrative and
legislative methods, against the de
bauchery of political organizations and
the prostitution of oflic-ial power to the
promotion of selfish personal ends.
In 1877; in Philadelphia and Pitts
burg, there were successful movements
against corrupt bossism. A little later
this extended throughout tne state, re
sulting in 1881 in the defeat of a ma
chine-selected candidate for the United
States senate, and in 1882 in the elec
tion of a reform Democratic governor.
The revolt against Cameron ism and
Quayism that year was participated in
by a large number of the best men in
the Republican party. It appealed to
the highest instincts of unselfish pa
triotism. In Philadelphia, Samuel W.
Pennypacker was one of a group of
professional men who heartily sustain
ed the new declaration of independence
adopted by the independent Republi
can State Convention, which arraigned
the Cameron-Quay machine for its
high crimes and misdemeanors against
the people. The action taken was an
inspiration to those who believed in
true American principles. Air. Penny
packer had been so zealous in this
work that he had been made secretary
of the Civil Service Reform Associa
tion. His law partner, the late S. C.
Hollingsworth, Esq., was likewise
earnest in the cause ot political purity.
Mr. Pennypacker was made a member
of the Independent Republican State
Committee, and became an ind< pendent
candidate for the legislature, against
a notorious tool of the machine, being
endorsed by the Democrats and the Re
form Committee of One Hundred. He
made an active canvass and was in full
sympathy with everythingthat was said
and done In aid of the cause of political
freedom and righteousness. He was
one of the vice presidents at. the great
Independent Republican Ratification
meeting, at which its candidate for gov
ernor, Hon. John Stewart, made the
most brilliant speech of his life, his
ringing words bearing a striking par
allel to the situation today. He said:
History of a Former Crime.
"We are opposed to the so-called
regularity of the work of the; Harris
burg convention, the nomination of
Gen. Beaver and his associates, be
cause it owes its existence not to popu
lar choice, but to the individual pref
erence of one autocratic senator. His
by creation, it represents his power,
and its success would be his personal
and political vindication, and would re
sult in the deeper debasement and
servitude of the Republican organiza
tion. The convention might have been
dispensed with on the ground of econ
omy. The ticket was shaped and fash
ioned by Mr. Cameron. It was selected
to suit his purpose, to strengthen his
rule and its election would be his vin
dication. Are you prepared for that?
(Cries of "No!" No! )
"Twice before, Gen. Beaver sought
this nomination and failed because he
did not look to the boss. He then turn
ed to the latter, but it was a fatal day.
At the Republican National Convention
at Chicago, in 1880, lie betrayed his
constituents, attempting to enforce the
unit rule against the will of the people
of Pennsylvania. His active zeal in a
political conspiracy deserved and re
ceived the condemnation of the Ameri
can people. Tie gained the favor of the
prince, but he lost the title to himself,
lie gained the alliance he sought at
fearful cost —his independence as a
man and the forfeited confidence of the
people. The nomination he has at last
secured will fall to ashes in his hands.
The empty promises of reform which
have so often been made we denounce
as mockery. The people of this com
monwealth know by sad experience the
enormous power developed through the
abuse of political and official privileges.
They indignantly demand that this
shall cease."
He Echoes Hoyt's Ringing Words.
On November 3d. Mr. Pennypacker,
with Mr. Stewart, Colonel McMichael
and others, addressed a meeting s\t
Oxford Hall, in his own district. Air.
Wharton Barker read tho memorable
letter of Governor Hoyt, which appear
ed that day, denouncing Cameronism
and Quayism in tones which were
heard throughout the nation. Every
word of this historic indictment was
heartily applauded by Mr. Pennypack
er. Let us recall, as vividly applying
to the conditions of the hour, some of
these burning sentences. Governor
Hoyt said:
"When standing room is no lonar
allowed to the members of a political
party, with a margin for self-respect,
revolution is an appropriate reinedv
There is an unueniable justification for
your uprising. Its grounds aro open
and plain to the people, in the name
of decency, and in behalf of my suc
cessor. 1 wish to emphasize the curse
of this whole business and sound a note
of warning to tho whole people. Peace
and reform will never come until the
moral forces in politics you have or
ganize! prevail. If their courage br
added to their convietion. the masses of
voters will promptly rally to your
standards, and aid you to an overflow
ing success: and such is tin- duty of
the voters of Pennsylvania."
No Intel igoiit citizen can deny that
Coutiuucd on Fourth Page.
