PALMER THUMPED
IN HIS DISTRICT
PenrOse Says That Democrat Drew
Up the Low Tariff Metal
Schedule at Washington

Before n crowd of more than 1900
voters, principally iron and steelwork-
ers, Senator Boies Penrose at Il po-
litical rally in South Bethlehem last
night attacked his Democratic oppo-
nent, A. Mitchell Palmer, in Palmer's
home district, as the author of the
metal schedule of the Democratic
tariff law. Northampton county Re-
publican leaders declared after the
meeting that Penrose would carry
the county over Palmer. Senator Pen
rose was greeted by a big delegation
of Republicans when he arrived in
South Bethlehem, including party
workers from the Bethlehems, Free
mansburg, Allentown, Hellertown,
Easton and other points in Lehigh and
Northampton counties.
Municipal Hall, where the meeting
was held, was packed when Senator
Penrose arrived. He was presented by
DR. Henry S. Drinker president of
Lehigh University, who emphasized
the Senator's prominence in the Senate
the industries of Pennsylvania.
My Democratic opponent Mr.. Pal
mer, is not talking much about the
metal schedule of the Underwood
tariff law" said Senator Penrose.
Soon after that measure was enact
ed, he declared that ne gloried in the
fact that he had taken a prominent
part in it's preparation and passage.
Now that il has thrown thousands of
iron and steelworkers in South Beth
lehem and throughout the State out
of work, Mr.. Palmer in his political
speeches discusses only candidates on
the Republican ticket. By abusing
these candidates he hopes to divert
attention from the destruction his
tariff bill has caused. But he cannot
fool the wage-earners of this State.
He will be the worst beaten candidate
who has gone before the people of
Pennsylvania for State office in
years"
Senator Penrose is to-day in Chester
county. where he has speaking en-
gagements at Parkesburg, Coatesville
and other points.

"THE TENTH COMMANDMENT" AT
THE PALACE

The action briefly told. relates to the
conditions arising in the home of a
young doctor which caused his wife to
leave him. She was selfish and demand
ed more attention from her husband
than he could conscientiously give. In
cidentally, there was a nurse in the
employ of the doctor, of whom the wife
believed she had reason to be jealous.
When the final separation came be-
tween the doctor and his wife there
was another man, Brown, who coveted
the wife for himself.
However, the only thing Brown
managed to do was compromise the
name of the wife sufficiently to turn
the heart of the husband against her
when the baby came She had returned
to her mother.
Time came when the young doctor
received a phone call to attend a little
girl who had been accidentally shot.
This child was his own, though he
never discovered 1t until he arrived at
the hotel and met his wife face to
face. And so fate would have il Brown
was there. too. However, at the urging
of the nurse, the doctor performed the
operation, believing the child was not
his, but Browns. During this opera =
tion, fire breaks out in the hotel. The
doctor and the nurse must complete the
operation That is where we get the
big suspense. When all is done the
nurse lies dying on the lawn outside. a
victim of loyalty, and the doctor under
stands Alright. The wife has learned
her lesson, while Brown has paid for
his villainy with his life.-Advertise-

WILL Be EXHIBITED
Panama Commission Votes $20,.
900 For Department of Health
to Make a Showing

The Pennsylvania Panama-Pacific
Exposition Commission decided yes
terday to set aside $4,000 for the use
of the State Health Department in
making an exhibit at the exposition,
showing the wonderful progress made
by that department in the conServa-
tion of life and health in Pennsylvania
since the inception of the department.
The fact that Pennsylvania was Sc
lected by the exposition officials to
give the only exhibition of this kind
is considered quite a high tribute to
the States Health Department and a
notable recognition of the wonderful
work it has been doing.
DIR. Dixon will Immediately employ
every means to have the exhibit ready
for the opening of the exposition, and
one of the largest spaces in the Edu-
cational Building has been allotted for
the purpose.
The commission approved contracts
for several large mural decorations
for the interior of the building, as well
grounds around it. Bids We're also
opened and the contract let to Straw
bridge & Clothier, of Philadelphia,
for the furnishings in the building
for S3,522.09. This firm was the low
est of twelve bidders. The commission
also let the contract for heating ap-
paratus for the building to a San
Francisco firm for S343, the heating
appliances, etc, being leased, rather
than purchased outright, which will
mean a considerable saving to the
State.

as required by law, and is reporting

Anti-Saloon League publication This
paper charged that not even DIR.
Brumbaugh's closest friends could
point to anything he has ever done in

wrote:
II happen to know that he asked
the removal of every such place with
in n square of a schoolhouse in Phila-
delphia. 1t occurred to me that you
might be willing to tell what you know
on this matter in an open letter.
at is too bad for good people to
be misled by such statements from
such source. l felt that your own
similar experience and sense of fair
play might impel you to speak on this
matter, as you can, with authority"
Mr.. Gibboney in lengthy reply,
pays tribute to DR.. Brumbaugh, and
among other things says:
From my position as president of
the Law and Order Society of Phila-
delphia and with recourse to its rec
ords and from my personal experiences
with him l am able to say to you and
to the citizens of PENNSYLVANIA that
DIR. Brumbaugh has been made the
victim of Misrepresentation, either
willful or accidental, in the statements
which You quote.
"On every occasion when the Law
and Order Society has been called
upon to oppose new or renewal
liquor license in the neighborhod of
n public school, we have had the most
hearty cooperation and assistance
from DR.. Brumbaugh in every phase
of the proceedings. and it was fire.
quently due to consultations with him
and the advice and assistance which
| he freely gave that our efforts We're
crowned with success and the public
schools of this city have been kept all
most wholly free of nearby saloons.
In these matters DR.. Brumbaugh
did not wait for others to take the

strong arguments in support of his
suggestions that the court establish II
as permanent proposition for it's fu-
ture guidance that no liquor license

radius of at least n city block of any

THAT DR.. Brumbaugh's candidacy

nominated him and must be the cause
of complete satisfaction to the thou
