Although William Draper Lewis and
Judge Charles N. Brumm asked friends
not to vote for them on the Roosevelt

instance, 230 persons voted for DR..
Lewis and 44S for Judge Brumm whose
home is in that county. In small coun-
ties like Cameron and Montour these
two men received votes. DIR. Brum-
baugh was voted for on the Republi-
can, Keystone and Personal Liberty
tickets in every county heard from
thus far but votes for Mr.. Mccormick
were confined to the Democratic and
Washington party tickets.

next week all of the returns Will be
in hand except from Philadelphia and
Allegheny, where much time is re-

Democratic slaughter in Pennsylva-
mia:
Ostracism, by the so-called
Democratic organization, of thou
sands of Democrats who had not
learned to merit party honors by
party treachery, and the bestowal
of offices, except by the congress
men, upon a lot of political men
dicants who were bankrupt in in
fiuence and despised by the pub
| lie.
