NEWS OF THE COUNTY SEAT

about with these two antedated char
acters, beyond confusing some of his
listeners and reckoning the capital OF
Carnegie, no one may be able to dis
cover. In all his TRADE against the
faults and abuses which he claimed
were being brought under republican
administration, he merely failed TO
give a remedy for one of them.
Once did Marshall breach the liquor
question. getting around the local op-
ton plank. He claimed the governor
was powerless against the law, but in
the same breath declared that Hanly
hllped the legislature around at his
will. If called upon to administer
against the liquor traffic, Marshall
said he would administer against the
high club mans saloon as well as the
poor saloonkeepeTs' saloon. This was
all he said upon the topic that prob
ably his entire audience had been
waiting patiently for. and to say they
were disappointed is putting it mildly
after he strong and fearless stand
taken by Watson.
Speaking of graft Marshall said II
was human nature for every man tc
get whatever he could. He said there
had been times when he could have
| stolen $4,000. but if there came q
question as to whether he'd steal G
million dollars, well he didn't know.
This remark coming from a nominee
for the governors{ip caused a grea
| deal of comment from those who heart
it, and Mr.. Thomas Marshall will prob
ably hear a great deal more of tina
remark before he is through.

hardly be wondered why so many were
disappointed yesterday.
One by one the saloonk eepers are
opening their eyes to the fact that the
republican party at least is not de-
ceaving them as to their position, and

the democrats and Marshall stand is
making them flock to the party that
