BRUNINC'S VOTE ELECTS HIN
Swallowed as Bitter Pill by Bedford
and Pickard for Chairman.
TRAINOR VOTES FOR ]. A. SCOTT
BruninR Has holiness TO Announce
There Was Nothing "FiKed'
About His EIectinE, Add
ing, elm n Way"

Fred Bruning's own vote reelected him
self chairman OF the Board OF County
Commissioner for the year 1910, at the
organization meeting held Tuesday.
Bruning had three votes and John A.
Scott one. Jeff w. Bedford, o. J. Packard
and Druning voted for Bruning. p. ].
Trainor cast the ballot for Mr.. Scott, who
was abselt on account Of illness.
Bruning, elected to the county board as
republican, has again committed the deed
Of party treachery which elected him to
the craftsmanship in January, 1905, and
will pay the same price as before-casting
his vote for the men whom Commissioner
Bedford and Pickard select for county
appointments.
The result was without surprise. After
County Clerk Haverly had called the
meeting 10 order, Commissioner Pickard
moved that the board proceed to elect
a chairman by ballot. The votes we're
cast and Mr.. Plckard stepped forward
as one teller. County Clefk Haverly sum
moned Commissioner Trainor to act as
another counter.
TITS superfluous,' said Trainor, as he
stepped forward. 'This is pretty well cut
and dried
Neither Commissioner Pickard nor Bed
ford looked particularly happy over the
result Of the election. They have admit
ted that Brunlng is a bitter pill to swallow.
Funny, but Don't Know II.
Bruning himself injected considerable
humor Of the unconscious variety into the
meeting by an address. Also he declared,
The election is rather a surprise to me-,
for there was nothing really fixed up, in a
way"
This remark was made TO reporters. In
his more formal address Bruning delivered
himself Of several gems of thought.
'The reason / wanted to be reelected, "
said he, was that 1 think every chairman
of every committee has worked faithfully
and efficiently, and so / didn't see any
reason for any change. 1 want 70 thank
the superintendents of institutions who
have co-operated with us and 1 want to ask
their cooperation to cooperate with one
aim this year"
The following committee chairmanships
were announced:
Observation-Disclosures, Detention home, con
struction.
Pickard-Roads, bridges, committee of the
whole.
Trainor-Hospitals, charity, claims.
Sc~ott-Judiciary, court house and Jail.
The Board of County Commissioner has
received a communication from Coroner

Berry a Democrat.

ty. He remarked the other night: 81

Berry made a strong bid for the
votes of the unemployed willie he was
speaking in the Quaker City. He at
tackled the Republican party and the
administration of President Taft. de-
claring that conditions were never so
bad. He pictured distress on every
hand, and declared that the country
was on the verge of a panic.
How many of you have coal in your
cellar?" was query propounded by
Berry to meeting of workingmen.
81 have not" some one replied.
"Nor have l." responded Berry, in
demagogic appeal for sympathy and
support
Later on at the same meeting, in n
palpable effort to curry favor with the
crowd, he exclaimed: Il would rather
talk to bunch like this than bunch
twice the sire at the Union League"
I'VE fellows who carry the hod in
the game, we get the lemon" was an
other remark by Berry that gave an
insight into his method of campaign
ing.
After listeninp to Rerry's sDeeches
the opinion was expressed by some of
the most conservative men in Phila-
delphia that Berry by his talk and his
political tactics during the last few
weeks has demonstrated that he has
no conception of the responsibilities or
the Importance of the Office Of Gov
ernor of Pennsylvania, and that he Is
absolutely lacking In dignity and char
acter such AS should be possessed by
the chief executive of the common
wealth of Pennsylvania.
The refusal of the great body OF
business men and manufacturers and
others who have in the pc1t been the
leaders of Independent movements in
Philadelphia to have anything Go do
with the campaign in favor of Berry
for governor has been a serious han
dicap to the keystone Party.
Not only do these men regard Berry
as unfit to fill the office of governor
but they resent the selection of a
Bryanite Democrat Of his type to head
a ticket about which sincere reform
ers are asked to rally.

Man Who Aspires to Be Governor
of Pennsylvania.
William II. Berry. the Keystone
Party nominee for governor, did not
improve his chances as candidate
by the exhibitions he gave while on
the stump in Philadelphia last week.
He was evidently laboring under a
severe mental strain; at least that Is
what some of his admirers say in ex-
PLANTATION of the many bad breaks
made by him in his speeches.
Berry could not control his temper,
and on more than one occasion he talk
ed like man who was in desperate
predicament and did not know where
he was going to land.
He was particularly bitter in his at
tacks on the Democrats who opposed
his nomination at the Allentown state
convention, and he repeatedly charged
them with being "a bunch of crooks"
Il will make that bunch of crooks
who controlled that convention" he
cried, dramatically, hide their heads
In shame until they die"
II will sweat blood to win this
fight" he exclaimed at another meet
ing When | accepted this nonina-
tion had no idea of being elected and
] had but one object. l received a
hand-out at Allentown. But l will put
| that bunch of Democratic bosses on
the everlasting hog. That's worth
while"
Running to Beat Grim.
This admission from Berry that he
| agreed to make the independent fight
in order to have revenge on the Demo
Gratis who refused to nominate him
| has been the subject of much com
ment His declaration that he will put
that Democratic bunch on the ever
| lasting hog is regarded as service Of
notice on the Grim supporters that no
| matter what Berry may think of his
own canvass, he will remain in the
| field until the end. so that Grim shall
have no chance of being elected
1t is recalled that Berry was ready
| to quit if Grim would also withdraw,
| as Berry is looked on as running third
| in the race but as soon as Grim said
| he would net retire, Berry got into
| the fight again, and he now says he
| proposes to keep at it until election
| day.

he WILL Be THIRD IN RACE
Republicans Make Big Showing In
Registration In the Quaker City, In
suring Great Majority.
Especial Correspondence
Philadelphia, Oct. II.

Especial Correspondence
Philadelphia, Oct II.
If at ony time there was any doubt
about Philadelphia giving record
breaking majority for John X. Tener
for governor and his colleagues on the
Republican ticket, that doubt has been
dispelled.
Since the returns of the personal
registration of voters have been re-
ceived there can be no question about
there being an overwhelming Repub-
lican majority recorded in the Quaker
City on Nov. 8.
The records from the wards show
complete collapse of the so-called re-
form movement.
What was anticipated when Berry
was placed at the head of the Key
stone Party ticket has come to pass.
Independent Republicans by the thou
sands have refused to support this
Bryanite for governor and have come
out squarely for the full Republican
ticket. Others who have been affiliat-
cd with independent parties have sim
ply taken to the woods. They have de-
clared themselves out of the cam
paign. That fact was manifested in
every independent stronghold in this
city on the three registration days
This class of voters did not register
No amount of persuasion from Key
stone Party workers could induce them
to go out to register. They said they
were still independents, but that they
could not go along with the Berry can
didacy.
While the independent vote cut
small figure in the registration in
| Philadelphia, the regular Republicans
were active in every ward. and they
succeeded in rolling up a phenomenal
registration.
Upon the circulation of reports that
| this Is Democratic year and that
there is a bright outlook for the cleo
tion of Democratic president, the
Democratic regulars got their workers
| busy and claim to have at least $4,000
| straight Democrats registered who
will all vote for Grim.
Berry a Poor Third.
| TeFlcWlIS tuc ltSlSIId-
| tion figures in Philadelphia, with
Tener getting an extraordinary large
vote and with Grim getting a big per-
centage of the Democratic vote. there
| is not much left for Berry, who is
destined to be poor third in the race
in this city.
| The Berry registration was small,
not only on account OF the hostility to
| his candidacy among influential men
among the reformers, and especially
| the men who have been the heaviest
contributors to their campaign funds.
but because the Berry movement lacks
organization.
| In hundresd of precincts there was
not solitary Berry watcher on any OF
the registration days. This in many
cases can be accounted for by the lack
of funds in the Berry campaign treas
ury. Reform workers, like those of
| the regular parties, are human. They
will not give up a days work for
nothing, and as the Berry boomers had
nothing to give, there was nothing do
ing in the way of manning the polls on
the three days set apart for registra-
ton.
