The peo ple of Penasylvani have never be fore beea diverted by so interesting a spectacle aa candidate for the exalted place of Judge of the Supreme Court whirling around In a personal canvass the State. Searchlig baok throng'o,all the years! alnae tbe adoption of the present -con--(titution, tha Democratic candidate himself would be unable to'fliid a precedent for It. The sentiment, made and ever maintained by the. people whiob holds high judicial office above such methods, has al ways been reapeoted heretofore by those who have been honored with V a nomination. 1 Site -Decoocratic candidate seems to have a teas exalted view of the place he seeks, and to think he can promote his caute by thrusting aside what has become an unwritten and should, be an inviolable law The duties of judge of the Supreme Court are of tbe most delicate and responsible character too delicate and responsible to be exposed to a compromising personal campaign for votes. The office has never been pulled down to that level, and no ont has ever before thought he could pull himself up to the office by such methods.

It ought not to baecesary to re mind tbe Republicans of Pennsylvan ia of their duty op. November 2d. But the largo' major! ties" this 'feu te hss recorded for the Republican iiok et have mads, thousands of voters earless, . They are stalwart Republi can, and when they go to 'the polls they vote a etralght ticket They are not indiflerent to party success; they merely take the eleotion of the Republican tioket for granted and do not -go to the trouble of voting State Chairman Andrews a few day ago warned Republicans against over-confidence He referred to the axiom of warfare that an army con stantly must be on goard and ap pealed to every Republican to cast his vote. The voters should respond to this appeal. No better candidates have ever been presented to the people of this State than A. E. Bisson, J. A. Stober and Robert von Moschziaber. They possess exceptional qualifica tions for' the offices for which they were nominated. They should not merely be eleoted; they should re ceive an overwhelming majority, for they are worthy of such a majority. Tha Democrats will endeavVir to poll their full party vote. A reduced majority for the Republican tioket will encourage the Deniocaroy In its hope of electing a Democrat the sue cesser of Governor Stuart next year, and an lnoreased representation in tbe Legislature and la Congress. Pennsylvania should take no back, wsrd step. Last year it gave the Republican national ticket a larger majority than any other Btate. , That majority should be followed by an other overwhelming majority this year. The Keystone State title to the position at the head of the Re publican column should remain un questionably. There is another reason why the Republican ticket this year should be eleoted by a record breaking off fear majority. Within the past few days the newspapers have printed despatches from the West, telling of tha plana of the low-tariff advocates to renew vigorously at the next sess ion of Congress their agitation for 'progressive' tariff revision. That is precise ky the sort of tariff revision Pennsylvania doet not want The people of this State will have little patience with, the effort of the La Foliette school of atatesmen to keep alive tariff agitation. The Pavne law Te-establiahes the protective sys tern and It ia restoring prosperity. Every voter who believes In it should Join In aa Indorsement of the party that enacted it. By electing the Re publican ticket by an 'impressive ma jority Pennsylvania will emphasize Jhe fact that it demands the main tenance of the tariff policy, which has made It the greatest industrial Btate in the Union. , Money Coma In Buachas to A.
