ed. ."-Roger's Convention Speech:
BY this are we to understand that
on the Franchise bill (Which Scouten
says was the most villianous. legisla-'
ton ever passed in this country Mr..
Rogers deemed it his duty to consult
those interested before casting his
vote? What party in interest did he
consult after voting for the amend
ment to kill the bill and what were
the arguments used to make him
vote against all other amendments
and for the bill on final passage:
We ask the voters of Sullivan
county whether they propose to elect
man whose record on corporation
bill is, that first he was opposed to
it and then leaving the Legislative
Hall for few minutes changed his
mind and give his vote along with
Corporate interests. If he did this
once would he not do it again? Can
he be trusted? Let honest Demo
Gratis and Republicans answer this
by voting for Albert l.. Dyer.
In the news columns of the Phil
delphia Press appears the following
article from a Harrisburg cores
pondent. which has d particular
interest to Sullivan county voters:
''The State Legislative Board
of Railroad Employees on Sept. 2.

in Crawford district and Fred. A.
Godcharles Rep. J for Congress in
the Seventeenth district. Pattison
was endorsed for Governor because
of the forty five members present,
about thirty were democrats and
the majority outvoted the others. >
In this is shown the absence of
the name of +. G.. Rogers whom
Scouten would have us believe is a
friend to labor. These resolutions
come from body of representative
citizens of whom majority We're
| democrats and are the final results
of the deliberation and research of
the leading labor organization of
the state who have appealed to the
Legislature for assistance and in
consequence have learned their true
friends and those pretending. This
mas distinctive clearness of their
disapproval of f. G. Rogers dOings
in the legislature and shows that in
him they got no assistance. This

greater compliment can be paid

thinks that by saying that Sheriff
Osler is running Dyer's campaign
he will leave the impression that
Mr.. Osler will hurt Dyer and in
this belittle Osler. He also hopes
