SAYS BRUMBAUCH
Republican Candidate Hits From
the Shoulder in Northern Tier
Speeches Last Night
M'CLAIN IS MAKING A BIG HIT
Palmer Forgets and Praises Brum-
baugh; Carson Speaks in Be-
half of the State Ticket

I'VE are not hand-pcked candidates
from the conservatories of the White
House, nor gathered from the plum
trees of Sycamore Hill in another
State. We represent the people of
Pennsylvania and are not puppets
pulled by the strings of political work
ers in other States for their own use,
but we are here for the welfare of
this State. The people named my col
leagues. The people named me-"
Thus did DIR. Martin G. Brumbaugh
Republican candidate for Governor
Ipresent himself and his colleagues on
the ticket to the voters of Elk. Cam
leron and Potter counties in yesterdays
all day tour.
Continuing his arraignment of the
fusion of two alien parties for no 9TH
er purpose than to satisfy the ambi-
tons of political oitice-seekers, DIR.
Brumbaugh declared that the Progress
sivc party made the direct primaries
an issue before the people of Penn
sylvania and the Republican party had
given the law.
Into that primary, among others.
went as a candidate for an Office
in Pennsylvania and | entered it with
the determination to submit to the
will of our people as expressed in that
primary and to abide like good dec
ent citizen by the consequence.
The result of 1t you know. The can
didates of the Republican party were
all chosen in an open, honest primary.
They have stood by the decision of the
primary from that until now. and they
will stand by it to the end of this
campaign.
Won't Sell Out
I'VE Won't Fuse, We Won't Sell
Out and We Don't Buy out in Penn
sylvania.
81 feel that there are people who
most strongly insisted upon the open
primary from the very first who now
traduce the very spirit of the thing
they plead for and cheaper; the quail
~ of the reform in this Commonwealth
10 which we have given our honest
support and acceptance
In a district which gave a Progress
sive majority two years ago and which
until the recent fusion of that party
with the Democratic slate had a strong
Democratic contingent, DR.. Brum-
baugh's statements were roundly
cheered and after the meeting many
men came to shake the candidates s
hand. declaring that they had been
ProgressiVes or Democrats, but had
become dissatisfied with the manipu-
lation of those parties and would now
vote the Republican ticket from top to
bottom.
Chairmen of the three counties de-
clare that the Republican majorities
in November will be the greatest in
many years. A strong sentiment for
Senator Penrose has developed in the
northern section of the State.
McClain Is Vigorous
Mayor Frank b. Mccain, of Lam
caster, candidate for Iieutenant-gover-
nor, provoked loud applause at a
meeting of workingmen in Johnson
burg when he reviewed Senator Pen
roses work in the upper house of the
National Congress and as a member
of the State Legislature of Pennsyl-
vania in behalf of laws for the benefit
of labor and contrasted it with the
object and aims of the Democratic
party. He said:
II wish we could send message to
| Washington, where Congress is now
sitting and discussing the proposition
to levy more tax on the people of
this country.
"wHAT THE PEOPLE WANT is
LESS LAWS, MORE BEEF, LESS
PROMISES AND MORE BREAD
AND MORE TARIFF AND NO WAR
TAN.
"Our candidate for Governor is a
man who has no lust for office. He is
not seeking for the spoils of office. He
is man whom you cannot buy and a
man of action, a whole man and a
man who never learned how to lie.
"He looks like Governor, he acts
like a Governor, he talks like a Gov
ernor and he will be the next Cover
nor of Pennsylvania.
