BLACKJACK PARTYs LAST DITCH

BLACKJACK PARTY's LAST DITCH
II was worth q thousand times what
1t epsH 70 have representative men
from all parts of this state see the
Phiirhs1phia machine in full motion.
The retoHs assault on the delegates
to the Union Party convention was an
object lesson showing the ways of the
political outlaw which the average
voter. in town and country never wit
nesses. For many years the newspa-
pers have printed the disgraceful
story OF hoodlum outrages until their
readers have turned in disgust from
the depressing spectacle.
It has often been said that there
was much exaggeration in these state
ments and that the accounts published
were colored to suit partisan and fac
tionel purposes. But the real truth
has not been realized. The drama
performed before the astonished eyes
of the legally chosen Union delegates
showed the utter degradation and des-
peration of the bafled and demoral-
lied Quay forces. Veteran observers
of exciting events in connection with
politics have been amazed at the au-
oy-t1, I'm al
the hirlings of the machine, and now
all hands are engaged in a futile ef-
fort to deceive the public, the purpose
being to make it appear that the whole
affair was only bit of factional con-
tention, with no serious consequences.
The foul spot cannot thus be wiped
out and honest Republican papers
have expressed their condemnation of
the murderous methods pursued. The
attempt. likewise, to give the matter
some sort Of legal standing is an in
suit which the Dauphin county court
will surely resent. II such wicked
violence, such outrageous disregard Of
the rights of citizenship, such infam-
GUS resort to the bludgeon and the
blackjack and every species of politi-
cal vulgarfty and hoodlumism, is to be
tolerated, elections in Pennsylvania
might as we'll be abandoned, and the
government of the state and all its
cities turned over to outlaws. 1t is
stated that large proportion of the
rioters In Musical Fund Hall came di-
rectIy from the House of Correction
to do the sidding of men even worse
than themselves.
THIS inoFaent, at the threshold OF
the present contest against Quayism
and all that 1t stands for, will arouse
the patriotic indignation of decent
men Irrespective of party. 1t will be
worth scores of thousands of votes tc
the Democratic Reform ticket The
blackjack party will be crushed
through the uprising of the self-re
specdng citizenship of our long suffer
ing ssate Push the battle from house
to house With increasing vigor ant
determination every day.
Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1902-09-10

Pennypacker's silence these days is
something wonderful. A double guard
has been put upon the eulogist Of
Quayism, lest he furnish more solid
shot for the enemy" There is
enough on hand to riddle the machine
fort, and 1t will all be effectively used.
Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1902-09-10

In one of his 1900 speeches Quay
coHemptuously referred to the Inde-
pendent Republican voters as mules" "
The compliment is being returned this
fall by the tallest and hardest "kick-
ing" ever known. Keep it up until
the odious machine is smashed beyond
repair.

THE GREAT WALLACE CIRCUS

The Great Wallace Show, which is to exhibit in this city for the first time in it's history, recently visited Columbus, Ohio, where the excellence of the show pleased big crowds. The l Columbus Journal said:
 ''Columbus had ideal circus weather Friday, and the Great Wallace Shows gave the citizens an ideal circus en- tertainment. The general verdict of the thousands of people who had the pleasure of witnessing the exhibitions in the afternoon and evening is that the Wallace shows are in the front rank of first class tented entertain ments, and as caterers to the amuse- ment- loving public the management is in class by itself.
 'sAt the afternoon performance the big tent was filled to it's capacity. But all records were broken at the night exhibition. The rush was so great that it became necessary to close the doors twenty minutes before the performance began and fully 4,0o0 people were refused admission. That the large crowd was greatly pleased with the performance was shown by the hearty applause which greeted every number on the long program.
 The Great Wallace Show will ex- hibit in Newport on Tuesday, No vember A.

ROUTE OF WHITE RIVER ROAD

The best we can gather concerning the railroad situation is as follows, says the Melville Echo. The line has been practically agreed on from Geo. Creek on west up Big Sugar Orchard. The line from Buffalo City to the mouth of George's Greek is not fully decided on. The survey made by MT. Abbott from Buffalo City to the mouth of George's Creek via Onset will be completed thls week. Also two tunnels will be surveyed this week. One from Lake's Ferry across to Crooked Creek and the other from Lake's Ferry over to Fallen Ash, Also a new crossing on White river will be examined between Buffalo and the mouth of Crooked Creek.
 Mir. Rohwer, the chief engineer, will be i'll Melville the last of this week when the route from Buffalo City to the mouth of George's Creek will be finally decided on. In either event it is pretty safe to buy you a town lot in Yellville. However, the Dodd City people claim to have posi- tive information that MT. Merri- weather has been again employed to locate the line via the Lees Mountain route. One thing is certain the road is going to split Marion county wide open.

HoxIE YARD IMPROVEMENTS.

H. L. Page, foreman of construction in the Iron Mountain yards at Hoxie has had his hands full the past week placing the turntable in position. This mammoth piece of steel is 70 feet in length and weighs 70 tons. It is the very latest improved of the up to-date turntables and sits on a ped estal having ball bearings Within ten days the roof will be put on the round house. The round house will contain fifteen engine stalls, and making concrete pits for the engines to stand over is what has taken so much time. The walls of the pits are about five feet high, are wider and larger than an engine, and being of solid concrete it will be seen that the job was a big one. The lower yards are a model of modern improved yard facilities, there being from 12 to 15 tracks, 5000 feet long all connect
 ing with the outside track, which semi circles around the entire track

REPUBLIC SPECIAL
Cleveland. O.. Nov. 5.-Mayor Tom" L
Johnson to-day gave the following signed
statement relative to the election:
I'VE are encouraged by the large Demo-
cratic gains in Cuyahoga County. in spite
of the fact that a large vote was polled and
a greater interest aroused on the part of
the Republicans. The majority of the
county ticket was elected. and in cases
where we lost It was due solely to personal
preference, and invo:ved no political prin-
ciple.
But probably the most encouraging sign
is the fact that where Mr.. Bigelow made
his campaign outside of Hamilton County
satisfactory gains were almost universal.
The time was too short to expose the
viciousness Of the municipal code and the
Cincinnati franchise grab. The result in
Hamilton County was due to dishonest
election methods rather than lack of in
terest. Cox and Mclean controlled the en-
tire election machinery. There was nothing
