HE is NOT WANTED.

John Dongan, or perhaps better
known by the sobrquet of exit
Kaine" is not wanted for the murder
of Alexander Rae, Notwithstanding
the fact that he is said to have made a
confession incriminating himself. His
name is not among those who murder
ed paymaster Rae. Investigation in.
to the trial, and conviction of the
Molle Mcguires, which occurred in
Bloomsburg way back IN 1877, shows
that the evidence of Dan Kelly, a
witness, implicated ten men, Ned Skiv-
ington, Bolan Campbell, James Baldy,
William Muldowney, Roger Lafferty
and man by the name Of Dalton,
and Hester, Tulley and McHugh,
who were hanged.
When shown a dispatch few days
ago, saying that kit Kaine" was be-
ing held in Alabama, for completely in
the crime, Captain Linden, the head
of Philadelphia's secret service said,
'the man is not wanted Hester, Tul-
ley and McHugh were hung for the
murder. The others escaped and l
believe subsequently died. No man
bearing this name figured in the con-
spiracy."
This fellow is no doubt seeking
notoriety, or else is weak mentally.

The Council in Special Session.

The Town Council assembled in
special session Tuesday evening for
the purpose of considering the matter
of paving the alley on the East side OF
the Court House. The condition of
the alley has long been a subject for
complaint, especially by those who
have beer compelled to use it. Mr..
Louis Cohen, was present and ex-
pressed his views on the matter, and
asked that the alley be repaired, so as
to avoid the possibility OF accidents.
The matter was then taken up by
the Council, but owing to a division
ofopinlon among the members present
It was thought best to hold it over for
the present. A committee was ap-
pointed however to confer with the
County Commissioners and Messrs
Writ and Krickbaum, and to report at
the next meeting of council.
The services of the special police
men were ordered to be dispensed
with. after which the meeting adj
journed.

MR.. CORAY,S REPLY.

Mr.. Chairman and Gentlemen of the
Committee:
Replying to your letter advising me
of my selection as the candidate of the
Democratic party of Pennsylvania for
the Office of state treasurer, l desire
in accepting the nomination to say, l
appreciate the trust you have reposed
in me. To justify that confidence and
to carry into effect the principles enun-
ciated in your platform, so far as they
relate to the Office of state treasurer.
will be my single purpose II elected.
l also wish to express the honor which
feel in being associated on the ticket
with so pure and able jurist as Judge
Yerkes, whose election at this time, for
obvious reasons, is a matter of great
importance.
In this connection 1t may not be in
appropriate to make some allusion to
the issues Of the campaign. During
the first five months of the present
year, the people of Pennsylvania were
permitted to witness the unfolding of
the most ingeniously devised and gi-
gantic scheme of public plunder ever
attempted in any single session of the
state legislature. The scheme involved
the purchase of the organization of that
body. 1t involved the purchase of
seat in the United States senate. 1t
involved the changing OF the libel laws
| for the purpose of muzzling the public
| press. 1t involved the destruction of
| popular government in cities of the first
! class. 1t involved laying all the real
estate of the great City of Philadelphia
| under tribute to the machine. Finally,
| it involved reimbursement to the ma
chine and its henchmen for all the
| time and trouble incurred by them
selves, out of the assets of the COM
monwealth-that is to say the tax
payers of the state were to be made
to pay the expenses of their own humil-
| iation and robbery. 1t was in the
spirit of resistance to this conspiracy
that fusion had its birth; the decent
Democrats and decent Republicans in
the legislature laying aside all ques-
tions of party policy upon which honest
men may honestly differ, fought
shoulder to shoulder for the honor of
the commonwealth and the protection
of its taxpayers. In that battle your
state chairman, Mr. Greasy, and Rep
resentatiye Palr-, were among the fore

CORAY'S ACCEPTANCE
Reform Candidate for State Treas
urer on Campaign Issues.
THE UNION OF HONEST VOTERS
Redemption Of Pennsylvania From
Misrule Is the Supreme
Duty Of the Hour.

Duty Of the Hour.
Philadelphia, Oct. 24.-The following
correspondence was made public today:
Philadelphia, October "a, 1901.
To Hon. Elisha A. Coray. Jr.:
Having been appointed a committee
to notify you formally of your nomi-
nation as a candidate for the office OF
state treasurer by the Democratic party
of Pennsylvania, we take the opportu-
nifty of performing the pleasant duty.
You have not been chosen for this
important position because Of any po-
litical opinion to which you subscribe,
nor of any political party to which you
belong; but for the higher reason that
you are regarded as an upright, cour-
ageous and competent man, who will
carefully guard the public interests,
should you be elected to the office for
which you have been named.
We believe the great majority of the
honest, intelligent citizens of the state
want man at the head of the state
treasury who is honest, fearless and
capable, no matter what opinion he
may hold as to purely political topics.
The questions that test mans fitness
for the important office for which you
have been named are: Is he honest?
Is he courageous? Is he capable?
Believing that you fully represent all
that good citizens demand, you have
been selected as our candidate and we
feel that you will receive the cordial
support of every Democrat who has the
welfare of his state at heart.
In selecting you as its candidate the
party is but following the advice of
that great Democrat, Samuel ]. Tilden,
whose memory is revered by our party
as one well worthy the honor which
1t had universally received On No
vember 2, 1S71, he delivered an address
which found responsive echo in every
intelligent mans mind. In that ad-
dress occurred the following extract:
"If we find our dwellings wrapped in
flames we should not inquire whether
it was an lrishman or a German;
whether it was a Republican or Demo-
crat who lent us hand to put out
the fire. And on this occasion, in this
great city, knowing nothing about the
action of your committee Of seventy
except what l have heard, caring moth
ing who unites with us or with whom
we unite for this grand object l come
before you to advocate a union of all
honest men against a combination Of
plunderers.
The necessity that existed for a
union Of honest men in New York
when Samuel ]. Tilden uttered these
words, exists in a still stronger sense
today, in Pennsylvania; and it is be-
lieved that your selection as a can
didate will aid materially in bringing
this union about, and we sincerely hope
that you will accept the nomination
in the same spirit in which it is ten
dered and that you may be triumph
antly elected and the cause of good
citizenship vindicated.

most champions of the rights of the


people.
The results Of the struggle there
waged are now matters Of history
The public press is still free to expose
the schemes of the corruptionists, and
is improving the opportunity. The
states subfuvial deposits OF coal have
not changed ownership. The supreme
court has removed the tax ripping club
the machine held over the City Of
Philadelphia. Popular government,
however, is suspended In our cities Of
the second class. Trolley franchises
worth millions Of dollars recently
owned by the state now repose in the
pockets Of the machine leaders-suffi-
cient in value to pay all the expenses
of all the larceny committed; and to-
gether with the many smaller grabs,
variously disguised, leave a handsome
margin Of profit to the machine for
Its sessions work.
The harmonious action Of the Union
and Democratic parties concentrates
the heretofore divided opposition which
has hindered effective protest being
made against the machine at the polls.
The spirit and purpose expressed in the
platforms OF the Democratic and Union
parties are identical. They speak for
honest government. The machine
platform endorses all the plundering
acts committed by the legislature.
The issue is thus squarely drawn. The
struggle is transferred from the halls
of the legislature to the people. This
is the court of last resort, Victory for
the machine would inevitably be con-
strued as an endorsement of all the
This election will have an important
bearing upon the contest for governor
and the legislature next year. II the
machine is entrenched when the legis-
lature of 1903 convenes, the largest
army Of spoilsmen that ever assembled
at Harrisburg will be Oh hand clamor-
ing for the flesh pots. Another United
States senator is to be elected at that
time, and the machine has no other
assets with which to pay for services
rendered its candidates, than those
they get out of the commonwealth.
The kind Of government we have in
Pennsylvania comes high, but the peo-
pie can have it indefinitely If they are
willing to vote for It, and pay for it.
1t is inconceivable, however, that they
will do this any longer, and / am
confident the day of deliverance is at
hand
Recognizing that the Democratic
party of Pennsylvania by their plat
form adopted August Is, 1901, have
made these questions the issue Of the
present campaign for the purpose Of
overthrowing the corrupt ring which
now manages public affairs, have no
hesitation in accepting the nomination
of your party upon that platform.
Very truly yours,

CROKER GETTING OLD.

Post quotes the Tammany leader as
saying: You won't see much more
leading on my part in the future. 7
am getting old and worn out, and
cant be field horse for everybody Iny
longer. I admit that the leader Of
Tammany Hall should stay in New
York all the year round, and | can't
stay here for more than a part of the
year. II tried to stay here all of the
time could do no work at ALL
"All this talk about me being State
leader and trying to dictate in nation
oil politics is nonsense. am in no con-
dition to do any kind OF leading. hut,
OF course, will always take deep
interest in Tammany."
When asked II he was training any
body to succeed his as leader, he re-
piled: "Oh, have not come to that
yet, and ! have not planned my future
except that | will go to England In
January or February. The Tammany
executive committee meets next month
and You may hear OIL the matter then.
