liams withdrew early in the evening,
but did not ask his friends to vote for
anyone. He voted for Cox, and Frank
II. Marvin, his colleague, for Mr.. Will
ilams, and James +. Gormley, Beaver,
did the same. MeSsrs. Cox and Bald
win exchanged votes.
The balloting was marked by con-
siderable good feeling and mistakes
made caused much laughter. The
votes OF the opposing candidates were
cheered.
Eby Presents Views
John s. Eby, Perry, presented the
name of Mr.. Ehrhardt and voted for
him in spite OF Ehrhardts withdrawal
OF his name. Eby's speech was the
best OF the evening and created con-
siderable merriment. He said in part:
want to say in open caucus that
am not in favor of the comments that
have been scattered broadcast over
thls fair state of ours regarding the
election of u Speaker in this House of
1917. We as gentlemen come here in
the performance of q duty; we did not
come here as galley slaves to be led
to the altar or shrine by any political
parties or factions in any other end
OF the state. l represent that end of
the state, gentlemen, that YOU look to
Tor your daily bread, the agricultural
end, and l am proud of il. More than
once that delightful sound came to my
ears last year-Perry county! Why,
where is Perry county? Perry county
Is still on the map. We are here to
say that Perry county is not altogether
satisfied with the selection of a
speaker, and we don't come down here
to tire you with something we don't
know anything about. We don't have
much knowledge, to be sure, but we
have wonderful amount of back
bone, and we have a good, strong
spring that gets our hips away from
the chair occasionally
4 don't object to Philadelphia and
Pittsburgh getting everything that
comes their way, because this is sort
of go for and get game if you are big
enough and long enough in the arms
YOU Will get along. / do not expect
that Perry county will get anything,
and l am not going to be disappointed
when go back home; but we do have
people in this assembly that should be
recognized in this caucus, and if I had
my way-and it is only an individual
notion that is going to be expressed
there-1 would wipe the slate clean
of the nominations made and l would
pick from this body of gentlemen some
person who would fill that chair with
dignity and honor and impartiality.
l would not have man there who
would bow his knee to any but the
Creator. | don't believe in q man
coming down here shackeled and tied,
and 1 want to tell you just now that
there isn't any of you that has got
more good. rich, solid Republican
blood in his veins than I have. I
stepped into the firing lines when
there was no chance. They said we
will get rid of him. They did-the
people did. They said the same thing
this time-"He is a nominee and he
cannot be elected" Unfortunately. 1

Following is the detailed vote

BALDWIN UNANIMOUS CHOICE OF REPUBLICANS
AFTER LONG FIGHT AND SHARP CONTEST IN CAUCLS

Richard ]. Baldwin was made the
unanimous choice of the Republicans
of the House of Representatives for
the speakership last night on motion
of Edwin r. Cox, Philadelphia, his
leading rival. The bitter campaign of
personalities that has ragged for the
last six weeks was forgotten and there
were signs that the strong sentiment
of the upstate members against any
further dragging of n Philadelphia
factional fight into party affairs was
having an impression. When the vote
was announced Mr.. Cox promptly
moved to make the nomination unani-
nous, which was done.

Bump for Morrison
James F. Woodward, Allegheny,
moved that committee on patronage
of the House, as the places are termed,
be named after the vote had been an
nounced and one man from each con-
gressional district will comprise il.
Immediately after Thomas f.
McNichol, Philadelphia, presented a
resolution that Mr.. Garvin be named
for chief clerk and Mr.. Leib for resi-
dent clerk and Frank Morrison, Phila-
delphia, assistant clerk last session,
for the same place. Morrison is a

resolution out of order and said the

win men and the adoption of the
resolution would have elected him.
contended that the game should be
played right. The chairman persisted
in his ruling and an appeal was taken
by Leopold c. Glass, Philadelphia, and
the chair was sustained, 81 to 81. That
ended it and it looks as though Nor
rison would lose.
No Crowding Allowed
The tremendous interest in the Re-
publican caucus caused the corridors
to be jammed long before the caucus
and the packing of the room, which
holds 250 persons, was prevented by
a Gordon of police, who kept out all
but members and accredited news
paper correspondents. Only those
with cards got by the officers and
Charles Johnson and Gabriel II. Meyer
were on the door.
The biggest political leaders of the
state did not get in and the men who
officials and attaches were likewise
barred and only one State official tried
to run the line and the brawny cops"
put him outside the ropes in style.
In the crowd here last night were
most of the mine inspectors, the pure
food agents and other attaches of the

Democrats in Harmony
The Democratic caucus meetings
took leaf out of the Republican book
and held meetings making for party
harmony. In the senatorial caucus
the ten senators named Henry Was
bers, of York, as their candidate for
the presidency and discussed legiS-
lation in the interest of the plain
people behind closed doors. The House
caucus was bossed by State Chairman
Guffey and Z. Lowry Humes, chief of
the ringmasters committee. John NJ.

HOG CHOLERA


Having been employed as Veterin-
arian for the Monte Vista Hog Grow
ers Association, it is my duty of
course, first of all, to help control
hog cholera.
Since arriving in your community,
1 have discovered considerable chol-
era in one District, some of it having
| been spreading for some time. This
means not only large loss to the
| owners of infected herds, but It also
endangers the whole community, and
| if allowed to go unchecked, would
even threaten the hog growing indus
try in this valley.
Now, we all know that cholera can
be controlled by vaccination and san
see that these are carried out in the
infected districts. 1t is absolutely
necessary that I have your co-opera
tion in handling these outbreaks of
cholera, in order to control the dis
ease, with the least possible loss to
the hog owners. which is no small
item at the present price of hogs.
In the first place, if your hogs be-
| gin dying, you must find out the
| cause of it; also the state law pro-
vides, that "all hogs, dying from any
contagious or infectious disease,
must be burned Immediately. until
consumed and the premises thor
oughly cleaned and disinfected"
If your hogs have cholera, you
should also have the healthy ones
vaccinated, and the sooner this is
done. the more hogs you will save.
Sanitation alone will go long
way toward controlling hog cholera,
as well as other contagious diseases.
so If your herd is healthy you should
keep them that way by keeping them
in clean quarters. and using plenty
of stock dip and lime. as well as dip
ping the whole herd occasionally in
a good dipping vat, which not only
keeps down the parasites, but also
helps TO prevent Contiguous uisedSes.
You should also be very careful
about moving new hogs into the COM
munity. and familiariZe yourself with
the law governing such shipments, as
cholera is often carried into clean
territory, in that manner. The State
law provides, that "all hogs, except
those for immediate slaughter upon
arrival at destination. shall be kept
in some clean and disinfected place,
away from other hogs for a period of
! eighteen days.
It should not be necessary to en-
force these laws, but it is my inten-
ton to see that they are carried out
as believe them to be absolutely
necessary in controlling hog cholera
| which of course is what we are all
| anxious to see done.
I am convinced, that with your
earnest and hearty cooperation, We
can eradicate cholera, from this Dis
trict, in a very short time.
Please do your part, and I am sure
you will be pleased with the results
