of 1882 alleged to be due on the heat
ing and plumbing contract for the
buildings. Attorney Atlee Pomerene,

ciate counsel, and McKisson and Thorn
as, of Cleveland, represent the firm.
This is ex-Mayor Robert E. McKisson,
who has a state reputation.

which credits to the amount OF $685.

Condemnation For Some Democrats
OF the participation and assistance Of
unworthy Democratic legislators In these
wrongs, this convention declares Its
strongest condemnation. They have be.
trayed their constituents, lnhicting last
ing, irreparable injury to their party and
proven themselves unworthy OF public
confidence, We leave to their immedl-
ate constituents the inniction Of political
punishment.
We cannot refrain at this time from
cpmmending and thanking those Demo-
cutie members of the Legislature VINO
stood manfully and faithfully by their
party against the perpetration Of these
wrongs.
In our effort to save our state from
further dishonr we ask all friends OF
good government to join. We make this
fight, not as q political organization seeking
n partisan advantage, but In the interest
Of all Pennsylvanlans, and VIII welcome
a closer union with all political organiza-
tions honestly pledged to the same pur'

young Englishman, who, being sent to
America in the hopes that a trip
abroad might settle him, returns home
and enters into an ocean Of lying With
view Of deceiving his relatives as to
his conduct abroad. The authors have
seized upon this pretext to illustrate
the fashion of English people, as well
as other foreigners, of getting our
geography mixed Ut, often locating
