Harrisburg. oct 7.-Pennsylvania
is going to give a splendid account of
herself in the election returns Of Tues

This is the unanimous opinion of the
active party men on The HILL" who
come from every section Of the com
monwealth and who are in touch with
ihe leading men of the state, members
of the bar, business men and others
who come here on official and private
business.
When Senator Penrose was here a
few days ago consulting with Governor
Pennypackor and Senator Quay he ex-
pressed the opinion that Pennsylvania
will give a larger majority for the Re
publican candidate for state treasurer
next Tuesday than has ever been Civ
en- for any candidate for that Office in
this state He said he based this opin-
ion upon the reports received at the
state headquarters and from what he
heard after consultation with officials
here.
PEOPLE ARE SATISFIED.
The predictions of a great Republi-
can victory are made because it IS the
belief that the people of Pennsylvania
are satisfied with their national and
state governments and they are deter
mined to let well enough alone"
They do not want a change in either
the methods or the policies of the ma
tional or state government. They do
not want to have a revolution in busi-
ness which a change in the national
administration would inevitably bring
and they are pleased TO have an Oppor-
tunity to give a vote of confidence and
commendation to the very excellent
state administration presided over by
Governor Ponnypacker.
When state issues are discussed by
those who are forcasting the result OF
next Tuesdays election, it is admitted
on all sides that the Republicans never
entered a state campaign with strong
er candidates, nor with a better rec
ord in the administration of the state
affairs
The nominees for the superior court,
Judges Henderson and Morrison. are
both able jurists, who have been pro
NOTED from the common pleas to the
superior court bench, and they are
now engaged in discharging their du-
ties faithfully and efficiently. They
are both veterans of the Civil War
and have the patriotic and enthusiastic
support of the old soldiers throughout
the commonwealth. Messrs. Mathues
and Suyde.. nominees for state treas
urer and auditor general, respectively,
were nominated upon the earnest re-
quest of their neighbors, who believed
that they should be rewarded for their
public services in their home coun-
ties of Delaware and Chester respec-
lively
They are men who will conscien-
tiously perform the duties that will de-
volve upon them.
