The legislative ticket of the democrats

The Legislative ticket of the democrats
is very strong. Samuel c. Wiley, OF Earl
Vile, has throughout two terms been
membe Of the lower house at Springfield
and as such represented the county Win
credit. He is popular and obliging-a man
of good views on public questions, and one
who should be elected. On every labor
question he voted right, and the Interests
of the laboring man as we'll as the farmer
will be safe in his keeping. The demo
Gratis must not allow Mr., Wiley to be de
feated. His opponent is Joseph Rhein
ardt Of Peru.
James p. Trench, of La Sale, is one ol
the nora inees of the democracy for repre-
sentative. He is secretary OF the knights
of Labor organization of the state and pres
ident OF the La Sale organization. lie Is
IS wears of age-a man who stands wen
with all who know him and will make q
good representative.
Edgar S. Browne, the other nominee Is
lawyer, practicing at MENDOZA Mr
Browne for the past four years has been
member of the county democratic commit
tee, and is entitled to the hearty support OF
his party. He has always been hard
worker, and whatever prominence he mas
obtained has been due entirely TO his OWL
efforts. Mr.. Browne will make a very WIG
orous canvass. Messrs. Trench and Browne
will be opposed by L. NJ. Sawyer, of Eagle
and Ezekiel Rowland, of Wallace.
There is no reason to doubt that the
whole democratic ticket will be elected. II
should be, and every democrat should as

REPUBLICAN BLUNDERS.

There Is not republican in La Sale county
who INDUCES hope of republican success
at the polls. If such a hope was INDUCED
prior to the meeting Of their convention
that hope has been dissipated by the series
Of blunders perpetrated by their delegates
In quick succession on Thursday.
They blundered in their treatment of the
lsboring men and the demands made upon
them In their behalf. They not only re-
fused to nominate Mr. Shay for senator, but
added to his humiliation by tabling mo-
ton made to allow him to deliver an ad.
dress while the committee on credentials
was out. Following close upon the de-
feat of Shay, was the reputation of Ross,
though his nomination was asked by prac-
tical laboring men.
They Numbered in their nomination for
sheriff They cast aside Mcintyre who
had long been recognized as an active
party worker. They disregarded the claims
of Belrose, and with an ingratitude which
was not expected, hardly countenanced the
candidacy Of ex.sheriif Stevens. What
ever else may be said of ex sheriff Stevens,
this yet remains that he was gallant sol.
der, and throughout the whole life of the
republican party has been consistently Its
friend and advocate. Bad as the rejection
of Mcintyre, Belrose and Stevens was, the
blunder in Morrissey s nomination is worse.
Mr.. Morrissey, pleasant and genial though
he is, will not be supported by the republi-
can party. He is not republican that re-
publicans will vote for, and the reasons that
led to his nomination will not avail him on
the day of election.
They Numbered on treasurer, nominating
against very strong man very weak one.
Hamer, whoever he may be, is certainly
not as strong as Webster, who years since
made the strongest race against Raymond
ever made.
II is impossible 10 conceive how much
stupidity could have been perpetrated in so
snort space OF Tune.
Messrs. Mcintyre, Belrose, Stevens, and
Webster are now chanting in mournful
tones the refrain
For ways that are dark
And tricks that are vain
The republican party of La Sale county
is peculiar,
Which same We are free to MAINTAIN"

THEY LOVE THE LABORERi

For many years the republicans have
been ELUSIVE in their protests of affection
for the laboring men and their interests. In
all of their conventions they have been
eager to pass resolutions avowing their ut
most sympathy for them and their willing
ness to aid them. No later than six
weeks since, in their county convention
held 10 Ottawa, they passed a long series
of resolutions tended to draw the working
men to them.
From the result of their convention held
on Thursday, it would appear that their af
lection can find vent only in resolutions. On
every occasion when a laboring man ap.
peared they disposed of him. The Rev,
Shay appeared as candidate for senator,
only TO be beaten; and David Ross asked
for the position of representative in the
state legislature, only to be refused II.
Whatever else may be said of Mr.. Shay
the fact remains that he was presented &c
the republican county convention rs the
choice of the La Sale county labor organ
izations; and the refusal to even treat him
with fair and courteous consideration Il
strong evidence that the labor organiza
tons do not stand well with the republican
party.
Mr. Ross would have been credit to theil
ticket. He is young man, active and In
telligent. lie is not demagogue, ant
there was no question as TO his republican
ism but, unfortunately, he was not Suitabl,
10 the elements composing the republican
party, and In consequence was laid aside.

The Marseilles Register, a good republi-
can paper, mentions the bad nomination Of
the Plano convention, and says: at Is a
bad state of affairs, but when our party per-
sists In putting up such man as Mont
gonery, a broken down mo-greenbacker,
they deserve defeat; and man cannot be
truly loyal to the best interest OF the party
and support the nominee. "-forkr'Ae Rec
ord
The question naturally arises how papers
like this Marseilles sheet and the lorkvllle
Record can object to Jivor and still support
Plumb. One is as good republican as
the other; they are alike in methods; they
are alike in aims, bed fellows, and bosom
friends politically; and there is not sin
gle argument fol or against either OF them
that does not apply to the other. The Sc
cret of Montgomery's candidacy is simply
this, as stated by o. A. Marshall OF VIII
county, in his recent letter to the Joliet
Republic Sun: Mr.. Montgomery, If elected
state senator, will hold over for two years,
and have a vote for L. s. senator to succeed
MIR, Cullom. The Legislature who elect
that officer is very close, and few votes
amount to great deal Of power. II Mr..
Montgomery and some others OF Piumo,s
bed fellows should get into the legislature
Il is not unlikely they will hold the bal
ance of power, and try to dictate the can
didates, as Fawcett Plumb did In the sen,
ate when David Davis defeated General
Logan. Col. Plumb at that time had hopes
of the senate, and his ambition has not no,
lessened. 1t is said that Col. Plumb VIII

The result of the rejection of Mr.. Shay's

proying TO the laboring men OF La Sale

A GOOD LETTER.

The letter written by Judge Cody, accept,
Ing the democratic nomination for con
gress in this district, is clear, forcible
and manly effort. 1t distinctly sets forth
his views upon the subject that should con.
troll the citizens Of the district, namely; The
illegitimate use of money in obtaining Of
fetal preferment at the hands of the voters,
He pointedly says; He, who by the
corrupt use of money, attemptsto purchase
his way to an Office Is guilty of moral trea-
son against our theory of government, and
the voter who is so controlled by money or
any other influence that he does not exer.
else his free, Independent and conscien-
cious judgment, is unworthy of the high
honor of American citizenship"
The circumstances surrounding the pres
ent canvass of Mr.. PLUMB, as we'll as the
past, ere such rs to cause the voters of the
district to ponder over the words of the
distinguished jurist. The regret that must
come to every honest citizen is that such
state OF circumstances should arise as to
necessitate a candidate for an important
place to call attention TO the corrupt use of
money in elections. The appeal made to
elect Judge Cody and to defeat Mr.. Plumb
Is not partisan one. 1t is an appeal that
is addressed TO the voter as patriot rather
than democrat or republican. 1t is an
appeal that is based upon the good of the
government, and not the success of politi-
cal organization.

AN OLD DEED
Which Was Given For Newln Township, Ches-
ter County, In lse4


X. &. Edwards, of Quarryyille, who is
among the INTELLIGENcER's oldest sub
scribers, to-day showed us a curiosity in the
shape of very old deed. 1t was given on
June 10, 1924, by Charles Read, Job. Good
SOM, Evans owen, George Hitzwater and
Joseph Pidgeon, representing the Society of
Free Traders OF Pennsylvania, to Nathaniel
Newlin. 1t is for tract of land lying on both
sides Of the Brandywine creek, in Chester
county, containing !, 100 acres The sum of
800 pounds was paid for the land on the same
day that the deed was given, and the wit
nesses We're ID. w. NJ, Evans and Miruk
Davies. The deed was ack now lodged before
John Wood, ''one of his maesty's Justices of
the peace" on April 4th lI2s
The land for which the deed was given,
now forms the township of Newline, which
was named alter Nathaniel Newlin. The
Brandywine creek runs through it and the
property is valuable. Within its bounds the
almshouse OF the county is situated. Mr.
Edwards was born in this township and his
father, Plumer Edwards, was a surveyor,
who died in 1877. This deed was found
among his old papers; it is of parchment and
remarkably well preserved. The signatures
attached TO the paper show that the signers
were excellent penmen.
Another curiosity which Mr.. Edwards has
In bis possession is a very old pock ct book

idea of its age.

The rumor that Levi Hoffman, whose death

appears to be without foundation. The most
OF the money which he had received for some
cattle sold by him, and which a contempo-
rary said had not since been accounted for,
is safe in bank. A portion of 1t was paid 10y
Mr.. Hoffman to his hired man, and some
may have been expended for other purposes.
