The famous comedienne. Flo Irwin.
assisted by Walter Hawley, made her
initial bow before a vaudeville audi
'ence in this city. at Dockstader's coy
little theatre yesterday afternoon. and
was given a hearty reception. It was
the same story last night. when as
usual the house was crowded to the
doors. Miss Irwin possesses much of
the cleverness that has made her sister
famous. and proves her title to the
high place given her in vaudeville cir
cles. Caught With the Goods. which

shameless methods employed by the
machine at their conventions, in the
late legislature, and at many of the
election districts in Philadelphia and
Pittsburg, but we had never seen one
in full bloom until we witnessed the
disgraceul riot in Musical Fund Hail.
We were not committed to any candi-
date when we left Clearfield for the
convention. We nad not been instruct
ed, neither had we signed any agree
ment to support any particular candi-
date, but our minds were soon made
up when We saw machine mob in con-
troll of a convention, and saw the char
acter of the criminals employed by the
machine to carry out its designs, even
at the cost of murder, if necessary.
These are our observations, and we
believe ii is our duty as business men
of this great state of Pennsylvania to
support, vote for and work to the best
of our ability for the election of Hon.
Robert e. Pattison for governor of
Pennsylvania, and to employ every
honorable means possible to elect good
men to supersede the disreputable and
disgraceful gang of machine boodlers
now in charge of the affairs of our
state

Loot Equals one-HaIf the Taxes.

Here are a few paragraphs picked
from the Pattison speech at Carlisle:
In the last legislative session Unit
ed states senatorsnlp was literally
auctioned off 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-
yerted into the assets OF a syndicate,
whose stock, according to the ratings
of the Philadelphia Exchange, is val
ued at $4,000, 900.
Do you know what $6000 600 means?
1t represents half the total expenses of
the state government for year. If
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
$3.50 for every square mile in the
state, or an average of nearly 100000
to each of the 67 counties.

A ,Japanese Retraction.

The art of retracting without taking
anything back-if the bull may be al
lowed-seems to be understood in ia
pan. A young orator at a political
meeting called Il public official thief.
A policeman on duty gravely rose and
addressed a remark in n low tone to
the speaker who thereupon said, "The
chief of police requests me to retract
the word which l have just spoken.
Although the word of sage should
never re-enter, let us make conces-
sion; let us take back the word and
keep the idea" Great applause and
cries of 'Bravow greeted the orators $

Guthrie's SIedge-Hammer Blows

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 man occupying a private
trust uses the money of others in
stock speculations the law calls him an
embeZZler and sends him to a 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
every illegal name on the padded regis
try list would disappear.
il 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.

PENNY POSTAGE.
The Incident That Led to It's Estab-
lishment In England.

Ihe Lea EStaD-
1ishment In England.
Many years ago, when Queen Vic
toria first began to reign, 1t cost nine
pence to send letter from one Eng
lish city to another. In those days the
postage was not paid by the sender
of the letter, as is now customary, but
by the receiver. So, of course, there
We're many poor people who could not
afford to pay ninepence when their
mail arrived, and it often happened
that they were obliged to forfeit the
letters.
One day man named Rowland Hill
was riding on the outskirts of a city,
and he saw postman bring letter to
young girl and demand ninepence
for 1t. The girl took the letter, scru-
tinized it carefully and then handed 1t
back to the man, saying she could not
afford to pay the postage. Thereupon
Rowland Hill, being kind hearted
man, rode up and insisted upon paying
it himself. When the postman had
gone, the girl confessed to her bene-
factor that, the letter was from her
lover, and to avoid paying ninepence
on every letter he made certain marks
on the envelope which she alone could
decipher.
But" said Rowland Hill, "don't
you know you are doing something
very dishonest in thus cheating the
government
The girl admitted she did, but there
was no other way to do.
Hill rode away and meditated over
this little incident, and his farfamed
idea of penny postage" was the re-
suit. At first he was laughed at by
every one, but he fought bravely and
finally was rewarded by seeing his
idea in practice all over the land.-New
York Tribune.

street the pair slipped and made for
the house of their friend. OF course
the neat housemaid and the neater

The Machine and the Strike.
From the Philadelphia Record.

From the Philadelphia Record.
The Republican managers may we'll
be anxious on account of the far-reach-
ing effects OF the strike in the anthra-
cite coal fields. There would have been
no strike at this time If the corrupt
Machine in control OF the last legisla-
ture had not prevented the senate com
mittee on mines and mining from re-
porting for consideration House bill No.
216, which was passed almost nnani-
mously by the house of representatives.
This bill provided that in every an
thracite mine where coal is mined by
weight or measure the miners should
have q right to employ a competent
check weighman or measurer, who
should see that the coal was fairly
weighed, and the miners given due
credit for their work.
This bill passed the house by orders OF
the Machine, on deal in return for
votes in behalf OF the notorious bill for
the abolition Of the board of revision of
taxes, but was never allowed to be re-
ported out OF the senate committee on
mines and mining, of which that distin-
guished follower of Mr. Quay, Milton
Heidelbaugh, was chairman, and Messrs.
Scott, Ware, Sproul, Hanes and Stiles
were among the members, three-fourths
of the committee being Quay mon.
If this bill had become law and the
rights OF the miners in the districts in
which the miners are paid by weight or
measure had been recognized, it can be
asserted with confidence there would
have been no coal strike; for, as is well
known, the vote in favor of the coal
strike was carried by representatives of
the seventy-fve thousand and more
miners in the Lackawanna and Upper
Luzerne coal fields.
1t is easy to understand why the PEN
rose Club should give $500 to the strik-
ing miners, and why Governor Stone and
Senator Quay should be anxious the
strike should end; but the people, who
have to pay the increased price for coal
and the miners and their families should
understand that those who deceived and
cheated them and defeated the lust
legislation which would have prevented
this strike are Republican bosses; that
all their talk about sympathy for the
suffering miners, an extra session of the
legislature and compulsory arbitration
law is bosh
