swept away in the panic of 1873, and

which have been assailing the Republi-

wealth.
In this state, what are known az
"Wanamaker newspapers" are con-
stantly arrayed against the Republican
party and they do every thing in their
power to disrupt the Republican Or
ganization which has refused to obey
the behest of Wanamaker and send
him to the United States senate.
In the platform of the Republican
state convention, held at Harrisburg
on Aug. "a last, this declaration was
made:
We believe in surrounding the
press with every constitutional
guarantee vouchsafed to it since
the foundation of our government,
but 1t is public menace that these
constitutional guarantees should
be so misused as to have permitted
many of our newspapers to have
degenerated into yellow Journal

state or country.
We charge the so-cclled yellow
journals with being subsidized by
the full PACED advertisements
which they carry. THE ADVER-

DARING RESCUE FROM !.
BURNING BUILDING. IN !.
Superintendent Buchler's CooIleaded Work Shown
This Morning During the Fire at the Smith
Building.=tleavy Loss. =

| Tie six girls who were at work in
the factory quickly donned their
clothes and started for the street. As
Dolly McCaulley Of Fifth and Searles
Streets, reached the door she fell In
a faint and was ca ught in the arms
of Captain George Black. He took
her into N. Shtofomer & Co.'S
tailor store and later she was taken to
Matron WoganS room at the City
hal! and after an hours rest was sent
to her home.
The fire was stubborn to battle
with on account Of the dense smoke.
The principal loser is Hawkins. The
loss at present cannot be estimated.
The loss to the building is small and
is fully covered by insurance in Phia-
dclphia companies.
Considerable comment was heard at
the fire concerning the iiremen. When
they arrived the information was Civ
en- that the fire was in the back part
Of the cellar
The tiremen put the hose in the
cellar door and the result Is that the
place Is flooded. The hlemen could
not sec where to direct the streams.
When Superintendent Buchler was
seen by reporter ofthe REPUBLICAN,
he said: at is strange way in
which the fire was discovered.
A few days ago the fireman told Us
when we were not getting sufficient
heat to go down and hammer on the
cellar door for him. | did 50 this
