marts of the world. With the popu-
lism of that day rapidly degeneratine
into Socialism, and Socialism reaching
down even into the mire Of anarchy,
could reform from such elements be
remedial, or would 1t be destructive?'
After expressing grave doubts that
the election of either Emery or the So
called Emery nominees for the legis
lature would be to the interests of the
people, Colonel Mcclure said:
Mayor Stuart, II elected Governor,
will carry with him legislature equal
ly sincere In the purpose to correct ev
cry public wrong that now oppresses
the people, and 1t would be done by
remedial legislation without disturbing
in any degree the tranquility Of ouI
Great industrial and business interests
There would not be a trace Of dis
lurbing violence in giving our great
commonwealth every reform that her
honest people demand.
ut would be done by the party that
has made Pennsylvania the grandest
and most advanced of all the states of
the Union; that has paid, in principal
and interest eighty-seven millions Of
state debt that survived Democratic
power in the state; that has construct
ed every state asylum, home, hospital
and reformatory now to be found in
every section of the state to temper
the sorrows of the unfortunate; that
has spent many millions to feed, clothe
and educate the orphans of our SOL
iiers who fell in defense of the Union;
tat has given us the most beneflcent
school system of any state or coun-
try of the world. and that has built
the finest capitol on the continent, with
many millions of surplus in the treas
ury.
with the exception of the expendi.
ture of few thousand dollars on the
State Asylum at Harrisburg. every
state asylum, home, hospital and refor-
matory is the harvest of Republican
rule.
Surely, the party that has reared
this matchless monument of state ad-
vancement can be best trusted to cor
rect abuses of political authority.
II believe that Pennsylvania should
have the grandest capitol on the con-
tinent 1t is the one building that be-
longs to all her people, where rich and
poor, high or low, can enter with the
knowledge of equal proprietorship, and
1t should record in the highest advance
ment Of American art on every hall
and In every part Of the great struct-
ure the grandeur of our advancement
1t will be the pride of every man. wo-
man and child of the commonwealth,
and the grandest patrimony of our
children and our children's children;
but II the Shiny hand of the CRATER
has fastened upon it, the whole people
of the state will demand that there be
swift and just punishment, and the
restitution of every dollar that has
been stolen from the treasury.

Tells OF the High Character Of Repub'
Iican Nominee For Governor, Edwin
s. Stuart.
Colonel A. X. Mcclure, while declar.
ing that "a man who is about to face
the frosts Of eighty winters should be
free from the labors and vexations OF
political strife" has been stumping for
his old-time friend, the perennial
Thomas Valentine Cooper, ''the sage OF
Delaware county" who seeks re-elec-
ton to the legislature.
Colonel Mcclure. in the course of an
address at Media, after dwelling upon
the virtues Of the redheaded and
hopeful Cooper" spoke of the several
candidates for Governor.
Among other things he said:
Senator Emery has been nominated
for Governor by q Democratic State
convention after violent factional
contest, and an overwhelming majority
of those who vote for him will do SO
because they vote the Democratic
ticket
They have read the Democratic plat.
form on which Senator Emery neces-
sarily stands today, In which the peo-

William ]. Bryan as our next Presi-

q target for attack by the combination
of newspapers in the Quaker City,
which is undertaking to dictate the
politics OF Pennsylvania.
This combine originally started with
what are know as the Waramaker
newspapers, composed of Wanamaker'
North American the Philadelphia Rec
ord, which is dominated by the Wana-
maker interests. and the Evening Tele-
graph, which is owned by Wanama-
ker's son-in-law. To these have been
added the Press, Of which former Post
master General Charles Emory Smith
Is editor, and the Ledger, which is run
by George w. Ochs, a Southern Demo-
crat, and which is part OF string of
Democratic newspapers, of which the
Democratic New York Times Is the
leading factor
Wsnamaker Papers; Emery Millions.
1t was when combination was made
between the Wanamaker newspapers
and the Emery millions to elect state
ticket in Pennsylvania this year that
all the newspapers in the Philadelphia
combine Joined in a campaign to de-
feat the Republican party in Pennsyl-
vania.
No man or no interest that has an
tagonized this journalistic outfit has
been safe from attack from the editor
ial battles OF this tyrannical political
band.
| Homer l.. Castle, because he refused
| to submit to an Endorsement of Emery
for Governor by the Prohibition con-
vention, and finally entered upon a
campaign for Governor himself. has
been attacked and grossly misrepre-
sented in these newspapers. DR.. Swal-
low, in praising Castle and in unmask-
ing Emery, Black ct al, incurred the
hostility and venemous hatred of this
same newspaper combine.
Following a sensational disclosure by
him of the record of Jere Black, a ram
pant Bryan Democrat, the Philadelphia
Press, which by many has been looked
upon as Republican paper, with for
mer Postmaster General Smith as its
editor. assailed DR.. Swallow, and made
|
of most personal character.
Dr. Swallow is not a candidate for
any Office, and his friends declare that
there was no good reason why he
should be singled out by Editor Smith
for the vicious and personal attack
made upon him. If Jere Black were A
Republican, Editor Smith might be ac-
cused of partisan zeal
| DR.. Swallow has made national repu-
tation as a fighter, and he was quick
to resent this onslaught from the news
paper combine.
! He went to Philadelphia without de-
lay and swore ont warrant for the ar
rest Of Charles Emory Smith, charging
criminal libel. and directed his attor-
ney. ex-Judge Maxwell Stevenson. to
alsO enter two civil suits for 100000
damages each, one against Charles EN-
ory Smith individually, and the other
against the Press Publishing Company.

 The shark became hopelessly en- meshed in some 1.500 feet of the fish ermen's net. The net he speedily tore into strips. but in the giant creatures efforts to escape, the strings and ropes were wound many times around its gills. and the shark was held a fast prisoner. Despite its long and frantic struggles for freedom. the shark was finally stranded and killed with har. poons. The struggle lasted for more than an hour. The monsters stomach was found full of fish. It was en- gagged in robbing the net when 1t be- came entapgled.
 So far as here known, the largest shark yet caught was 22 feet long ten feet shorter than the San Pedro bay monster. In capturing the latter two fishermen had narrow escapes from being snapped up by the crea- ture. It made long. savage and des. perate struggle for its life. The shark was skinned and stuffed, and has been placed on exhibition. Efforts. it is understood. are being made by the Smithsonian Institution to secure this splendid specimen of the shark fam fly.

MONSTER SHARK CAPTURED.
Flsh Weighing 14,ooo Pounds Recently
 Taken from San Pedro Bay, Cal.

San Francisco Sharks often attain a very large size along the Pacific coast. especially oil the shores of southern California. Very recently, a monster shark was captured by two Italian fishermen in San Pedro bay, that is claimed to be the largest fish of that kind ever caught in the world. Beyond doubt 1t is certainly one of the largest ever captured anywhere.
 When drawn out of the water and killed. this sea monster weighed 14,- 000' pounds. It measured from tip to tip S2 feet, and the circumference of the body just forward of the huge dorsal fin was 15 feet. Across the fearful mouth - horizontally - when opened 1t was two and one-half feet, while from the tip of the snont to the point of the lower jaw it measured three and one-half feet. The size of
