sent letters signed "a Negro" and criti
risinE Thomas w Miller. Secretary OF

influence his vote in the board OF pardons,

opposed to pardoning any man who has
been given an impartial trial and con-
victed of attacking n woman, whether

VETERAN DENIES PENRoSE
HAS "0LD SOLDIER VOTE"
Never Did Anything for U.s." De-
clares William A, Morgan.

Another Penrose campaign gun has been
spiked and this time by a white-haired
grzzlcd old warrior Of the war Of 1851
who sCathingly dcuounces the candidates
efforts, through a resolution passed by the
War Veterans Club Of Philadelphia, to
induce the old soldiers to vote for his re-
elrp.!on
The man who spotted a campaign trick
iu the resolution Is William A. Morgan.
265i Tulip street Mr. Morgan received q
circular letter from the War Veteans'
Club asking all old soldiers to vote for
Penrosc because 1t was he who caused the
final passage Of acts favorable to the men
who fought to preserve the Union In
addition to this the letter characterized
FeurDsN as "uuc Of the best friends In
PennsNlvania to tho Veterans Of the civil
Nar aud to tho Veterans Of the Spanish
American War and Veterans uf Foreign
S"r' ice and Sons Of Veterans
Mr. Morgan. although indignant be-
cause Penrose sought to make tools Of
him and his comrades, laughed when he
read this passage
That man never did anything for the
old soldiers" he said. "and as for this
War Veterans Club, It is nothing but
cheap political ally OF man who will
never get my vote or the vote Of hun
dreds Of other Veterans I know.
ri, tell YOU how Pcnrose helped us
men who went through tho civil War
He helped us by doing all hc could
against lis. Recently bill granting
pensions to men who twice enlisted, dur
ing the Antctam campaign and again
for Gettysburg, was passed bE both
branches of the state Legislature at
Harrisburg All It needed was the sig
nature Of the Governor.
"lt lay on the Governors desk when IL
had but one more day to 20 to become
law What happened? Did Penrose
help us then? No. at a conference At At
lantic city Penrose showed how much he
cared for the old soldiers by ordering
Governor Tener to veto the bill.
THE attempt Of this man, aided by an
organization known as the war Veterans
Club, to influence the vote of us soldiers
in his behalf Is a low and mean piece of
business. II will not do him any good, be-
cause the veterans see through the trick.
"'The War Veterans Club says Penrose
is n friend to the old soldiers but we can
not sec IT,
"I am unable to understand how any
veterans or sons of veterans can vote for
a man who does all he can to work
against the soldiers who fought for their
country in 81"
