The Middleburgh post. [volume] (Middleburgh, Snyder Co., Pa.) 1883-1916, 1900-09-27

Stalwaft Republicans were triumph
1t everywhere
On the night Of the primaries a mes
age was sent to the regular Republi-
ans Of the commonwealth that those
rho stand by the party organization
have the full sympathy and support Of
2 largo majority Of the Republicans Of
Philadelphia.
GREAT VOTE POLLED.
There was an immense vote polled In
every district in which there was a
Il yht. In some precincts each side had
a., many as 20 canvassers at the polls
Wearing badges Of their respective can
didates and hurrying voters to the
front, so that in the two hours allotted
f'r the voting they could get as many
>tes In as possible. There were as
many as ESQ voters In a solid line wait
Ing to get in their ballots at some pre-
cincts at o'clock. At no general cleo
tion ever held in this city was there
ever anything like this seen.
IN many precincts the vote polled ex-
ceeded that at the last gubernatorial
election. Republicans who frequently
neglect to vote at general election
We're gotten to the primaries because
Of the intense rivalry between the fol-
lovers OF Martin and the regulars.
In the Fifth senatorial district Ber-
kelbach, the candidate of the regulars,
won 139 delegates to 40 for Walton.
Many of the delegates were elected by
harrow margin Of votes. The total
vote in the district was 81, ,127 votes for
BeFkelbach to 1914 votes for Walton,
HCpular majority Of 1858 for Berkel
bah.
nee this huniliating defeat Of the
MaItinites the insurgent newspapers
ha1e been attempting to make it ap-
peiF that victory for Rerkelbach was
90 :, .,a. ,h'"ms' .is "nu 'ne! polnt
excteds the vote for Governor Stone.
In their effort to explain their defeat
these newspapers overlook the fact
that the vote in the precincts carried
for Walton was correspondingly as
large as was the Berkelbach vote in
precincts carried by the regulars. In
a number OF divisions where Walton
delegates were elected the total vote
exceeded the vote cast for Governor
Stone. The insurgent newspapers do
not refer to his fact. hut keep up their
cry Of "repeaters" and false returns"
in order to break the force of their
crushing defeat.
With the nomination Of Berkelbach
the re lars named all Of the senatorial
cand' N minated In this city.
Th gents, while they did not
nam tor, on the other hand lost
one, ,e in the district formerly
repro ca by the late Senator IIolz-
wort a follower of David Martin,
the regulars nominated Representative
state senator.
