Candidate Guthrie was at his best at
Carlisle Following are some of his
declarations which provoked great ap.
plause:
Don't be deceived by men who, start
ing out in the cause of good govern
ment, have grown weary. In every
great movement there are those who go
out with the van, but soon fall to the
rear with the slaves.
The dominant machine lives by trick
cry, gains power by ballot fraud and
uses that power to make money for its
adherents.
No man ever stole an office for a
good purpose.
The worst charges against the ma
chine have never been denied. They
cannot be denied.
When a man occupying private
trust uses the money of others in
stock speculations the law calls him an
embeZZler and sends him to felon' S
cell. Yet we see today men holding
high public offices converting the prop
erty of the people into franchises for
themselves and their associates.
The machine has been promising bal
lot reform since 1895. If the boss in
Philadelphia were to issue the order,
every Illegal name on the padded regis
try list would disappear.
If such an outrage as the assault on
the Union party state convention were
to be perpetrated in Russia, the man
hood of the civilized world would cry
out against it.

Loot Equals One-Half the Taxes.

Here are a few paragraphs picked
from the Pattison speech at Carlisle:
In the last legislative session a Unit
ed States Senatorship was literally
apctioned OIL to the highest bidder. You
don't need to take my word for it, You
have the word of prominent and re-
liable members OF the Republican
party.
The public franchises issued by the
machine to its members, for which an
offer of $2,500,000 from John Wana-
maker was rejected, have been con-
verted into the assets of a syndicate,
whose stock according to the ratings
of the Philadelphia Exchange, is val
ued at $6,000,000.
Do you know what $4,000, 600 means ?
1t represents half the total expenses of
the state government for a year. II
that sum mad been turned into the
state treasury, where it belongs, in
stead OF into the pockets of the machine
favorites, the people of Pennsylvania
could have been relieved of one-half
of the taxation for state purposes this
year. Or, suppose it had been devoted
TO good roads. 1t would have meant
Sl30 for every square mile in the
state, or an average of nearly 800, 900
to each of the 67 counties.

The riotous raid on the Union party
convention in Philadelphia was a
back breaking blunder. The mendac-
ity of the desperate machine never was
more vividly shown than in its stupid
attempts to lie itself out of this dis
graceful affair. The absurd state
ments sent forth are too much for hon
est newspaper proprietors hence their
general refusal to print the false ac
count The fact is the people would
scarcely believe the complete story of
criminal doings that might be told.
And this was but the beginning.
These outlaws are planning still worse
things. But the end of their wicked
work is near.
