TAX EXEMPTIONS.

By constitutional amendment,
approval November 8, the State OF
Louisiana exempted oversee
steamship lines dom.ciled or to be
domiciled at a Louisiana port from
all municipal. PARISH and stale
taxes during a period of fifteen
years. This amendment to the
constitution has been under con-
sidelation for five years past. LIS
object is, first to overcome as far
as possible the hand caps imposed
on American steamship lines en-
gagged in the foreign trade; mex
to secure steamship lines domicil-
ed at New Orleans for the carry
ing of NJ ssissippi Valley COM
Merce through the Panama Canal
to and from the Far East; third,
to permanently assure every pos
sible advantage to the Mississippi
Valley after the federal govern
ment shall have enacted a mari
time law that will encourage the
upbuild ng OF the American mer-
chant marine.

The Political DemagOgue.

Webster defines a demagogue as
lone who attempts to control the
multitude by specious and deceit
full arts In this campaign the
people of Pennsylvania are hearing
the voice of the demagogue. 1t is
that OF the office hungry candidate,
the most familiar type of dema-
gogue known in this country. By
a campaign of misrepresentation
the political demagogue hopes to
receive a sufficient number of vot-
ers to bring about his election.
That sort OF a campaign wins once
in a great while and then the fact
that they have been badly buncoed
forcibly is brought home to the
people.
The Republican Party in Penn
syvlania does not stop for the office
hungry demagogue. 1t is the par
ty OF action. 1t goes before the
people with record of what it has
done and not with vague promises
OF what, possibly, it may do. 1t
has moved with the people and
has kept abreast of the times. 1t
has administered the affairs of this
State so admirably as to present
other commonwealths an example
OF good government. 1t is the par
ty OF progress and performance.
That is why an overwhelming ma
Jority of the people vote the Re
publican ticket.
The opponents of the Republican
Party have received little encour-
agement this year. No other can
didate for Governor within this
generation has proven more popu-
lar than Representative John Is.
Tener. Wherever he goes he is
enthusiastically received because
he has the confidence of the people.
His dignified attitude in the cam
paign has been commented upon
approvingly. There is nothing of
the demagogue about him. He
does not attempt to deceive any
body. He tells his audiences that
he intends to give the State clean
and business like administration
and the people believe him. All
OF the indications point to re-

Tag Your Dog.

Hunters taking their dogs into
the woods during the coming sea-
son without having them tagged
with a 1910 dog tax. will have them
shot, according to advices received
from Joseph Kalbfus. secretary of
the Pennsylvania State Game Com
mission. The ruling of the game
commission is that under the act of
June |. 1907, all dogs are required
to wear tag attached to their
collar showing that the tax for that
year on said dog has been paid, al
so the name and address of the
owner in plain English. If the
owner of the dogs do not comply
with these requirements it is to be
the right and privilege of all game
protectors, or any constable, to kill
these dogs when off the land owned
or controlled by the owners of such
dogs.

LABOR LINES UP
FOR J. K. TENER
Prompt Reputation Of Scheme
Worked by Keystone Party.
The LEADERS Let QUICKLY
GreenaWalt's Personal Game Blocked
When Exposed BY Representative
Union Men.

An attempt to work a scheme to in
fuence organized labor in the present
gubernatorial campaign has proven a
boomerang for Berry and his party.
President Greenawalt, of the State
Federation of Labor, is being denounc-
ed upon every hand for seeking to
use the position which he fills tenn
porarily to advance his own political
interests and to promote the cause of
combination Of politicians who are
land themselves and their friends in
public office
Greenawalt's political campaigning
for the Keystone Party is quite nat
ural, as he is known as an ardent
Democrat but his efforts to use his
position to influence the votes of the
wage earners of the state are resented
in Pennsylvania as well as the influ-
ential leaders of various trade unions.
Tener a Friend of Labor.
Greenawalt's action it is pointed
out is most reprehensible, on account
Of the fact that John X. Tener, the
Republican nominee for governor, has
for years been known as a staunch
friend of the workingmen throughout
western Pennsylvania, where he grew
up in an atmosphere which would nat
urally make him sympathise with the
wage earners. He spent his boyhood
days working in steel mill in the
great Pittsburg district, and in recent
years he figured in the satisfactory
settlement of labor disputes in his
home community, being chosen to ap-
pear in consultation as the represen-
tative of the workingmen. The only
period in his career when he was a
large employer of labor was when he
was at the head of a glass manufac-
turing establishment, and he had none
but union men employed about the
plant
Upon several occasions during his
tour of the state Mr.. Tener has taken
occasion to refer to his advocacy of
legislation in the interest of labor,
and he has pointed out that through
the agency of the Republican party
many excellent labor laws have been
passed. most of them at the sugges-
ton and upon the request of union
labor. The employers liability bill
passed at the last session of the
Pennsylvania legislature was enacted
by Republican majority in the sen.
ate and the house and was signed by a
Republican governor.
The fact that John Mitchell, one Of
the most respected and popular lead
ers in the crowd of labor in recent
years, is a warm advocate of the cleo.
tion of Mr.. Tener to the governorship,
has been known to the labor leaders
