r WARDEN GETS 'ENI
Three Harrisburg Men Rounded
Up For Violating Sab
bath Law
FIRST ARRESTS OF KIND
Two Carsonville Men Caught
Walking Fields With
Guns Are Fined

Harry Frank, William Frank and
c. NJ. Hoffer. all of this city. were
rounded up by State Game Warden c.
r. Baum yesterday afternoon while
chasing rabbits in fields outside of the
city limits contrary to the new act
of the Legislature, which prohibits
the training of dogs and chasing of
game as we'll as hunting on Sunday.
The arrests are the first of the kind
to be made in this vicinity. although
the act has been enforced in other
counties where gunners had been
making a practice of training their
dogs by chasing rabbits and other
game on Sunday. The act was de-
signed to give game one days rest on
Sunday and many organizations have
backed it up. The three men arrested
were fined S25 each.
Warden Baum also arrested David
Snyder and Frank Bordner, of Car
sonville, on charges of hunting on
Sunday. They were arrested with guns
in their hands Notwithstanding it was
the Sabbath. They also paid S25 fines.
The State game authorities propose
to enforce the new act forbidding
trailing of game on Sunday with vigor.

SHOWS REASON OF
POOR BOARD YELP
FOR $4,000 AID
Great Quantity of Meat Goes
Bad For Lack of Proper
Curing
BURIED IN BARNYARD
Hundreds of Cabbage Heads
Let Spoil by Democratic
DittoS

Millersburg. Pa; Nov. AT one of
the largest Republican rallies ever
held in this place, Senator Il. f. Bel
dleman on Saturday evening made an
expose of the methods of the Demo-
cratic poor board that has set the
whole upper end of the county talk
ing.
aside from the fact that this
board has already spent all of its ap-
preparation for the year and has had
to come to the county commissioners
for $4,000, which will in itself not he
enough, have it from reliable author
ity that a large quantity of hams,
shoulders and sides of bacon were all
lowed to spoil at the almshouse. be-
cause of lack of care in curing them.
Some of the meat was buried in the
barnyard, others of 1t in Il deserted
limekiln and more was fed to chick
ems. am also reliably informed that
some hundreds of bushels of turnips
rotted and hundreds of heads of cab
bage spoiled because of lack of care
i'm packing them. Is this the economy
of which we have heard so much?
And, in addition, County Controller
Cough had on his desk for some
weeks poor board warrants signed by
John p. Guyer, the clerk because they
were drawn for money that was not
to the credit of the board. IF Guyer
had been little more interested in
keeping the books of his office and
looking after its duties and a little
less with outside affairs, perhaps this
might not have occurred"
The meeting here was presided over
by Harry NJ. Fairchilds, and addresses
were made by the candidates.

My Dear Sir-I am in receipt OF

Having served over eight years

WINGED than ever that the man.

GOT MORE THAN
THEIR SHARES OF
THE PUBLIC PIE
Democrats Declare Royal and
Copelin Want to Keep Both
Feet in Trough

Why Mayor John *. Royal and
City Treasurer o. NJ. Copelin who,
during the last fifteen odd years, are
said to have received something more
than 100000 in public office fees and
salaries, should want to "draw down"
another $4,000 between them for the
next two years as City Commissioners,
is cause of considerable wailing and
gnashing of teeth among many Demo-
Gratis.
Both the Mayor and city treasurer
have done very we'll at the public
crib for several years and are said to
have received in excess of 100000.
Allowing deductions for salaries of
clerks, etc, both John" and "Owen"
have had more than their share, is
the vail of the rank and file.
How Royal scot His"
Mr.. Royal has worked the taxpay-
ers as prothonotary, city treasurer,
collector of school taxes, member of
the board of tax revision, and as
mayor. Always during that time he
was a "stanch Democrat"
Nevertheless, he's now willing, nay,
eager to serve the dear peepul" for
another two years as councilman-at
$4,000 a year. incidentally he'll be
"nonpartisan" to earn this salary,
now.
Mr.. Copelin as city official also
did well. AS treasurer and as col
lector of school taxes hosts of Demo-
Gratis declare he got more than a
generous share of the public pie
even though he is willing now to be
'nonpartisan" like John to get the
job.
Ever since Mayor Royal backed and
filled over the mayoralty situation
many and many loyal old Democrat
has been mighty peevish; Royals de-
lay in announcing his intentions-he
was holding off to see if the courts
would allow it-preVented the naming
of a candidate whom the party be-
lieve might have won and thus boost
the party prestige and redeem the
''lost cause of 1914 Mr.. Royal held
off until too late and then decided
he'd like to serve. the people again In
Council--at $4,000 a year.
Mr.. Copelin hasn't been unsellish
either, wall the Democrats. And il
isn't fair, they say. for MAY to in
sist upon another whack at public
tob-especially a two-year term al
s2,500 a year.
'If they've made these public office
jobs a trough" observed one old
party man bitterly, there's no rea-
son why John or Max should try
to get both feet in it and want to
keep 'em in for another two years
at $2,500 a year!"
Hence the loud cries in the trenches
of the Democrats.

WANTS FRIEND AT
COURT, is CHARGE
Wants Taylor Defeated in
Hope That Gross, Closely
Identified With Company,
Would Be in Office When
$50, 900 Is Spent For More
Apparatus For City

After challenging Samuel +. Dunkle
president of the Morton Truck an'
Tractor company, to meet him in opel
debate in the court house tonight, 81
that the people of Harrisburg ma,
know the true story concerning tn
recent purchase of fire apparatus TO
the city, and being refused by MI
Dunkle, NJ. Harvey Taylor, commits
sioner of parks and public property
to-day made a statement for publica
ton in which the following were tn
high points:
Dunkle is the president of the
Morton Tractor company, and
therefore his statements must be
considered in the light of those
of an unsuccessful and disgruntled
bidder.
Repeated repairs have been re-
Quircd for Morton apparatus now
in use by the city.
1t was MIR. Taylor's desire to get
for the city five pieces of appara-
tus for the $4,000 at his disposal.
And this he would not have been
able to do if he had accepted
DunkIc's bid.
At the same time MFR. DunkIc
was offering his combination
wagon TO the city of Harrisburg,
at pf.uuu. was AN w
@SA'illiamsport at $4,000 with freight
p Said TO Williamsport: this not in
Guiding the expense of a demon
strator. which If counted in would
bring his price i'm WilIiamsport
down to about $1,000 for the same
machine he asked the city of Har-
risburg to buy for $4,000.
Morton, Dunkle's manager, as
sured Mr.. Taylor in conversation
=. Il 1fNr. Insa
company would be willing to sell
their standard combination wag-
ons to the city at $500 each. but
when il came to bidding the price
was run up TO $1,000, presumably
thinking that Mr.. Taylor would he
forced into accepting the bid ow-
ing to IL being a home company.
The real reason for Dunklc's
libelous attack, says Taylor, is
that he wants to see II. II. Gross
elected to council, along with the
other Democratic candidates, for
the reason that Gross is closely
identified with the Morton COM
pany, and about 100000 is to he
spent for fire apparatus within the
next two years. Shrewd Mr.. Dun
kle naturally would like to have
friend at court"
Mr.. Taylor's Statement
Mr. Taylor's formal reply to MI
Dunkle's article in The Patriot of thi
morning is as follows:
The attack upon me by Samuel i
Dunkle, president of the Morton Trucl
