"This is campaign Of principle

upon what platform he stands. Judge
Prouty, Of the Seventh district. can
not expect to escape stating his views.
Neither can any other congressional

form.
How can George w. Clarke. Audi

on the republican state platform.
which is the platform they are sup

Senator Accused Of Accepting Money
From Standard Oil.
Pittsburgh, Aug. 16.-"Boies Penrose.
senior United States senator from
Pennsylvania. will have to face i'm
peachment proceedings If the progress
sive party is victorious in the coming
election
This statement appeared yesterday
afternoon in the Pittsburgh Leader the
mouthpiece of Senator William Finn
and local mouthpiece Of the progress
sive party.
A letter. alleged to have been writ
ten by John A. Archbold. financial
agent Of the Standard Oil trust. sent
to Penrose with certificate of deposit
for $25. 900, is to be the basis Of the
impeachment charges.
The letter published in recent
magazine. follows:
Oct 13, 1904.--My Dear Senator: In
fulfillment Of our understanding. it
gives me pleasure to hand you here
with certificate Of deposit in your ia
vor for $25,O0O. and with good wishes
am. yours truly,
JOHN D. ARCHBOLD.
ITO the Hon. Boies Penrose"
The inference from the letter. the
Leader says. is that Penrose betrayed
the people he is supposed to represent
and sold himself and his constituents
for a sum Of money. If he did this he
committed a crime that IS universally
despicable and that demands punish
ment."
