DEMOCRATS ALL STIRRED UP


many petitions are about with a pros
pect that more may be put into circu-
lation. Among the men mentioned
the last few days for Republican NOM
ination is A. G.. Bashoar. Millersburg
manufacturer. He has been identified
with the Republican party for many
years and has many friends who are
urging him. In the lower end .. G..
Bishop and Albert Shenk are talked
of.
Democrats in the second district are
mad at themselves. The candidacy
of DR.. Shaffner, of Enhaut, for the
House from the lower end, has caused
much dissatisfaction as the doctor is
not regarded as even a good forlorn
hope bet, while in the upper end Pat
Craven insists on butting into the slate
made for H. b. Saussaman.
The upper end is being showered
with literature sent from this city and
said to bear a congressional frank.
The Democratic row was helped on
last night when in a speech at Wilkes
Barre, Michael J. Ryan, aspirant for
the Democratic nomi
nation for governor,
Ryan Calls made a sensational at
For Defeat tack at a big meeting
of Palmer of Democrats upon
Congressman A. Nit
chell Palmer, leader of
the reorganization faction. He called

States Senator in the interest of the
success of the entire Democratic
ticket. Mr.. Ryan said: when ! read
In the newspapers of the State six
weeks ago a declaration from Senator
Penrose that there was no man in the
he would more eagerly
welcome as his antagonist than Nit
chell Palmer | thought that it was a
mere expression of bravado, or what
is called political bluff" But ] now
learn from the most distinguished
men in Palmer's own county that his
record is such that his nomination
would jeopardize Democratic victory"
Judge Eugene c. Bonniwell, of Phil
adelphia, to the text "A Campaign of
Pharisees," arraigned Palmer and Nc
Cormick, the latter Ryan's opponent
for governor. He said Mccormick had
never voted for Bryan.
The Philadelphia Inquirer to-day
says in a Washington dispatch: Re

A torney General
McReynolds to-day selected O. Is.
Dickinson, of Chester, Pa, to fill the
extra judgeship in the district court
at Philadelphia. The appointment was
sent by Mr.. McReynolds to the Presi-
dent this afternoon and ii was learned
at the White House that President
Wilson would send the nomination to
the Senate in all probability to-mor-
row. The selection of Dickinson marks
the end of long -drawn-out battle
and is decidedly embarrassing for
Representative A. Mitchell Palmer. of
Pennsylvania, who made a vigorous
fight for the appointment of Mr.. Carr
The Philadelphia Record of to-day
says: Announcement was made yes

1t was stated that the establishment
of headquarters had been made neces-
sary because the superintendent was
finding it impossible to attend to the
numerous details of candidacy while

baugh has announced that he will not
go upon the stump until after the
primary election, but expects to tour
the State in the Fall"

says: THE reiterated refusal of Judge
Charles n. Brumm, of Schuylkill
county, to withdraw from his candi-
dacy for the Washington party guber-
Material nomination, following a con-
ference yesterday with Dean William
Draper Lewis, his rival, and the slated
candidate, in the presence of Clifford
Pinchot. also slated for the senatorial
nomination, lays the foundation for a
factional fight in the ranks of the
workers. Both gubernatorial candi-
dates have a large following in the
Bull Moose ranks, the one faction be-
ing resentful that Lewis was slated.
the other that Judge Brumm threatens
to disrupt the slate"
