Quay wanted and has been known as
burg is to be thrown down for the
nomination. Senator Quay finds 1t
necessary to attempt to make friends
with the various independents OF Ches-
ter county. and so. when Major Nc
Cauley was mentioned for auditor gen.
eral. he promptly endorsed the pro-
posal.
Thus is verified the unsubstantiality
of the senior senator's political graft
tude. The chances are that II Senator
Hardenburg We're nominated he would
be defeated by reason of his close ad-
herence to Senator Quay in the past
years. Buo this does not alter the fact,
as stated above, that Senator Quay is
seeking every means to get into har-
monious touch with his enemies and
the element that is opposed to him.
Hastings splendid Fight.
During the past week Governor Hast
ings has manifested afresh his adher-
ence to the interests of the people. He
has vetoed the notorious Becker bill.
which proposed to hand the entire
municipal government of Philadelphia
over into the hands OF Senator Quay's
friends. He has created a commotion
among the members of the various in
vestigating committees by demanding
that they hand In itemized bills of their
alleged expenses to him.
Not in the quarter of a century, nor
since the notorious salary grab of a
dozen years ago, has there been such a
commotion and excitement among leg
islatiVe sharps as there has been dur
ing the past week or ten days. II
simply means the political extermina-
tion of about 40 men who heretofore
held the confidence of their constitu-
ents. They endeavored to fool Cover
nor Hastings, and to get money from
the treasury by bills of expense, but
Governor Hastings was entirely toe
shreWd for them. The governor has
by his recent action thoroughly merite
the title of the peoples governor" II,
has kept n Viglant eye upon revenues
and expenses, and, as result, thou.
sands of dollars will be saved to the
taxpayers Of the state which other.
wise would have gone into the capa.
CiuuS nav Of Unsuitable politica
sharpe.
With this condition of affairs facinl
the state. the political outlook is as
stormy as it ever has been in recent
years. The storm may not break thi,
fall, but it certainly will come next
year. The bosses of the state have
been too long sowing the wind not t.
reap the whirlwind.

asked whether he had rcaflirmcd his

what he had said ut Abbcville. He
said, "IOu just let them 90 on and do
their footing and put out their ticket,
and then we will see" Senator Till
