The Issue Against the Governor


The Harrisburg Patriot thus accepts

will gladly respond. The enemies Of
the Democratic party insist that the
result of the approaching election in
this state shall be taken as the Judge
ment of the people in regard to the
acts Of Governor Pattison's admins.
tration. They choose to make this II
prominent issue in the present canvass
The Democracy gladly accept it aud
return their sincere thanks To their
political adversaries for introducing it
iuto the contest.
at seems then that the people Of
Pennsylvania are expected by the
Republican bosses to condemn the
watchiulness and fidelity OF Governor
Paitison in the exercise of the veto
power; that the Republican state
ticket is to be supported on the ground
that the governor is to be rebuked for
cutting off e1lravagant appropriations
and putting an erd to legislative job
berry that the frmness with which
the governor refused his signature to
unconstitutional ,uactmeuts and bills
Of doubtful propriety il to be used as
an argument for the election Of Niles
aud Livsey aud that the repeal OF
odious laws and the abolition of use
less and expensive Offices which have
been conspicuous features Of Governor
Paltison's policy are to be made odious
by the success Of the Republican party.
Welcome be the issues The in.
tcgrily of the people as reflected in
the faithful aud fearless executive who
has dared to defend the constitution
aud protect the interests OF the com.
monwealth Is challenged in this rash
attempt to disgrace aud destroy the
FIRST reform administration chosen hy
the people of Pennsylvania since Ion
est government was overthrown hy
bossism aud machine politics. We
hall see whether the intelligent voters
who will determine the result Of the
approaching election are ready to
stultify themselves by undoing their
work Of last year at the bidding OF
the bosses. viii they say by their
ballots that Governor Pattison shall
cease to exercise the veto power for
the benefit of the taxpayers that he
shall labor no longer for the abolition
of useless offices that he shall no
more concern himself Tor the defeat OF

shall permit extravaganza, lawlcssness
