Especial Correspondence
Philadelphia, Oct. 16.
Colonel Wesley R. Andrews, chair
man of the Republican State Commit
tee, has planned a whirlwind finish for
the Republican state campaign.
After several conferences with Chair
man ]. S. Sherman, of the Republican
congressional committee, he has map
ped out schedule of mass meetings
in different parts of the state at which
many speakers OF national prominence
will make addresses in support of Ed.
win S. Stuart for Governor and his coll
leagues on the state ticket, and for
the Republican candidates for Con-
gress.
The fact that Pennsylvania now has
the largest delegation of any state OF
Republican members of the House of
Representatives makes this an import
ant political battle ground and Presl.
dent Roosevelt has expressed him self
upon several occasions upon the I'm.
portance of rousing Republicans of
Pennsylvania so that there shall be no
congressional losses next month.
He realizes that the fusion campaigns
In Pennsylvania and New York are
likely to interfere seriously with the
plans of the Republican managers for
the election of Congressman. He
dwelt particularly upon this phase OF
the situation when he had Chairman
Sherman and Senator Penrose at the
White House recently to go over the
general political situation.
The President has requested Secre.
tary Of the Treasury Shaw to make at
least two speeches in Pennsylvania,
and he may make others, although up
to date he has been scheduled for bu,
two.
Uncle Joe" Cannon, Speaker Of the
National House, is billed for two Penn.
sylvania speeches, and Senator Bever.
idge for two. Congressman Watson,
OF Indiana, member of the ways and
means committee of Congress, Is
among others who have been assigned
by the national congressional commit
tee to make addresses in Pennsylva-
mia for the whole Republican ticket be-
tween now and November s.
