majority. Chandler is too stalwart q
republican to be lost to the next con-
gress, where party lines will be drawn
so close. The republicans will need
men of his calibre in order to keep on
top.
Prohibition was emphatically prohib-
tied in Pennsylvania last Tuesday, by q
majority Of over $4,000 against the
