TO TALK BILL
TODEATH MAY END
IN FAILURE TODAY
Democrats Resurrect Old
Ruling to Break Republi-
can Filibuster Against Har-
bors Measure.

WASHINGTON, Sept iS.-The ques-
ton pending when the Senate took up
the river and harbor bill today was
whether the Senate should reverse it's
decision of yesterday that a Senator
cannot yield to another while making
speech, except by unanimous consent.
The Democrats supporting the bill yes
terday resurrected precedent cstab-
lished by eX-Nice President Morton dur
ing Democratic 1libuster against the
Force" bill This was done in order to
prevent the opponents OF the river and
harDor bill from talking it to death.
Senator Kenyon. of Iowa. was making
his fourth days speech against the
measure, and the Democrats attempted
to compel him to continue his remarks
without further Interruptions from his
colleagues who were thus allowing him
brief rests. The Senate sustained the first
point of order made against such an
interruption, bat later when another point
was made against an Interruption, the
question was again submitted to the
and it was being debated when
the Senate went into executive session.
The question is to be determined today.
The Republicans and Democrats oppDs-
ing the river and harbor bill declare that
the supporters of the measure are at
gag rule" and they promise
to fight the bill more bitterly than ever.

passing it before the latter part of next

Underwood and other Democrats of the

PENROSE MACHINE
A HOPELESS WRECK
IN CHESTER COUNTY
r e m a r k a b lie Change
Wrought Among the Vot-
ers Awakened to the Moral
Issue of This Campaign.

WEST CHESTER, Sept 1S-That there
| is a change in the political atmosphere
I in Chester County goes without saying
/ This fact is read in the faces of the
| men who once were the Acknowledged
! bosses OF voters here and the word
Z machine as 1t has been employed IN
( the telling OF political conditions i'm the
past no longer has any significance.
For score Of years the name of PEN
rose here was a synonym OF political
success and continuance in public place.
To-day finds il knocked about in most
practical manner and its influence is van
ished And all because things are diff
fercnt now and voters have asserted
their privileges of expressing their pref
erences at the polls. In the rural Sec
tons of the county Mr.. Penrose some
years ago had liberal following be-
cause of one of his most affable lieu
tenants having circulated among them
with the old story that what was their
interests We're his also Now that afTable
cmtssary is no longer in the machine
ranks. on the contrary, he is dill
gent laborer in the vineyard of the anti
Ienrose faction and it is said he is
making himself as effective in his new
role as he did when under the flag OF
the old organization.
The position taken by the Evening
Ledger is in complete harmony with the
views of the awakened citizens OF Chester
County, who are fast becoming readers of
that paper, and are taking it as their
safe guide in the issues to Ne disposed
of by the ballot this year
It is not very long since the word "re-
form" as it was applied to matters po-
of the voters here. 1t has been banded
about by the bosses until every vestige
of its real worth was measured as mean
ing nothing more than a phrase with
which to gall the people Now it has
been restored to its former place in the
vocabulary and is serving a good pur-
pose in the campaign. Indications are
that Mr. Penrose has deceived the voters
of this county for the last time
There Is more effort being made in the
Senator's cause here than at any time in
his political history but it cannot re-
trieve that which has been lost to him. |
The men who are engaged in this uphill |
work are the ones best acquainted with |
this condition Evidence of this change
are visible to them when they compare
present experiences in minging with the
masses with what has taken place in the
past The opposition to Pcnrose Is not of
the brass band order; it has for its basis |
that de termination which speaks for
truth and the results which follow in it's
wake. In the ranks Of those bent on the I
elimination Of Penrose are found the |
very best men of the country who have a |
that can not be purchased al I
so much per head with campaign money. /
men who realize the emptiness of Mr.. |
penrose's pledges, and it is to dispose Of /
such a representative in the United (
States Senate that they are lined UP to
do themselves and the county a credit.

some of the men who have been asked
to help break up the meeting told him
this. Mr. Ransley could not he tpulsd

publican leaders, said Morslli that moth
ing can stop the movement.
Since the league was formed. said other
officers today, Republican ward leaders
have canvassed every Italian division in
South Philadelphia and given the voters
promises for their support. The general
response, they said. has been that the
Italians are tired of conditions as they
exist today, and that they have already
received too many promises which have
not been kept.
At the meeting next Monday night
seven flying squads of orators will be
formed to conduct the leagues campaign
They will invade every district in the

within two weeks and continuing their
campaign until election day. There will
