Putting In New MACHINERY.

r. C. REGISTER, OF the Register
Brass Works. was in Philadelphia
this week purchasing new machinery
for the plant in this city. The com
pany has large order for heavy
bronze castings from the Manhattan
Bridge Company, New York, and the
machinery was needed to fiji this con-
tract and also TO fill orders from rail-

been run according to the law, with
equal rights and Justice to both par
ties. They refer to letter sent by
Chairman Hanna to me concerning
the placing of black lines over the
ballots in the Wilson law counties of
Maryland. | sent a reply stating that
all elections would be run according.
to the law. II this is violation of
the law 1t will not be used | turn
ed the letter over to Attorney-Gen-
eral Isaac Lobe Straus for him to
hand down a legal opinion. The cleo
ton does not come off until Novem-
Der and he has considerable time In
which to give an opinion, which he
will do
They next state that the present
Primary Election law is unfair The
primary elections seem to be a weak
point with them and they are at
tempting to place the blame on the
Democratic party. The Democratic
party held direct primary elections
in 12 counties and do not believe the
Republicans held single one.
They state that they favor a pro-
gressive, enlightened policy Of good
roads, yet they attack us for building
roads and spending money. Roads
always cost money to construct but
at the end OF this year the taxpayers
OF the State will find that not one
cent has been added 10 the bill.
The Corrupt Practices act needs
no comment. Their recent conduct
shows that they are not overly enthu-
slastic about the enforcement OF that
act.
Next they state they favor reval-
uation and reassessment Of property.
All this has been attended to by the
County Commissioners. These boards
have both Republican and Democratic
members and the Legislature viii
take action on their report
I'VE favor the State care of the
| INDECENT insane and feeble-minded,
they say next No one has ever had
different opinion. They have left
out the vital part which is how to
provide the money 10 care for these
people.
- favor the income TAX myself But
this Is only personal opinion.
Everyone knows the views OF the
Democratic party in this State on
| the pure food laws. Its position
needs no explanation.
Il repeat that the platform Is weak,
save where II is copied after that Of
the Democratic party"
