ATTENrIoS, REPUBLICANsi
Don't be deceived by deceptive cir
cular.
MANY Of you have come in possession
OF deceptive circular signed by five in
diyiduals. the first named on the list not
being a resident OF WinGber or Somerset
county. Let us ask
First Does George r. Scull or his
contingent control the Republican vote
of Somer ct county? II so, why did he
not succeed in electing his bosom friend,
Harvey NJ. Berkeley. chairman of The
county committee over J. A. Berkey,
Esq, our present model county chairman,
one year ago?
Second. Why should any honest Re
publican vote for man for the Office Of
United States senator when FIVE criminal
Indictment. are hanging over his head !?
Koontz and Kendall could not. neither
could you. II the state OF affairs exists as
has been under Quay regime it will not
only disrupt the party, but would tend TO
disrupt our most powerful nation.
Third. Gen. w. II. KOontz has al
ways done all in his power for the incor-
poration OF Windber and Paint (Scalp
LevelD Who opposed the incorporation
Of these two boroughs? Was it Gen.
Koontz or the officials Of the Borwind-
White Coal Mining company?
Fourth. One of the most prominent
officials of the Berwind-White Coal Min
| company in a conversation made a
public statement that should Windber
ever be Incorporated none of said CON-
pany's works would be included therein
Is this consistent?
"Finh. Why did J. S. Cunningham
publicly and privately oppose the incor-
poration OF Eureka No. 30 in the new
borough Of Paint?
sixth. Why should ]. S. Cunningham
be in favor of incorporating windber, s-
il will greatly increase taxation of the
B-rwind-w White Coal Mining company's
property, fully 3 per cent? Has J. S c.
turned out to be philanthropi+t? Citi-
zens of Windber, ask yourselves this
question and vote accordingly.
Seventh. Who is Fred Rove? He is
a coal operator in the Meyersdale region
running one of the most ironclad pluck
me stores on earth. Is he q fl. subject tC
represent you in the legislature?
"Eighth. or KOontz and Kendall, We
will respectfully refer you to the Legis
lstive Record, which shows that they
stood right on honest taxation snd pure
politics.
