cal tide during the primary contests
having changed the complexion of
the com mittee in some precincts.

every precinct of the city at the re-
cent elections, was present by invita-
ton last evening and made an ad-
dress in which he thanked the COM
mitteemen for their wholehearted
support of himself and Senator
Sproul and predicted sweeping Re-
publican victory in November. The
Senator, who is one of the most
popular Republicans in the county,
was assured that the committeeman
meant to repeat the primary results
next NALL and that he would carry
every pIeSllCI dl lie SShSh'h WV

man is we'll known to the committee
men, with many of whom ne mas
been associated for years in the lea
dership of the Republican party in
this county and his popularity al
home as we'll as abroad was attesteo
by the warmth of his reception.
Auditor General Snyder, who is a
close friend of Senator Beidleman
paid a high compliment to the Dau-

endorsed at the November elections
by a vote that will correspond very
closely to that cast for President

I'm the candidacy of the Honorable
William C. Sproul for the governor
ship of this Commonwealth, the Re-
publican party is extremely fortunate
and the people of the Commonwealth
in general, irrespective of party
highly honored in having one to APP
proach this high office so well equip
ped and fully competent to conduct
the affairs of state. His general busi-
ness training and connection with his
many years experience as a state
senator fully equips him to discharge
these duties with credit to himself
honor to his party, and with fidelity
to all the people of this great Com
monwealth.
in our candidate for lieutenant
governor, the Honorable e. e
Beidleman, we recognize a man
of high character, sterling worth
and integrity, one who in the
the years of his legislative experience
has proven himself at all times
worthy of the favorable considera-
tion of his constituency in Dauphin
county. In him we have a native
born citizen of whom we are justly
proud, and as his coworkers in ad-
Vancement of the principles of the
Republican party and the welfare OF
the city of Harrisburg and the coun-
ty of Dauphin, we feel a degree OF
pride in his being called to a higher
field of usefulness, and we appreciate
that what will be a loss to our city
and county will be a gain to this
great Commonwealth.
I'm the candidacy of the Honorable
James F. Woodward we are fortunate
in securing a candidate with many
years experience from a Legislative
standpoint, and the work which he
has accomplished as chairman of the
important committee on appropria-
tions for the state fully equips him
in every manner to manage the af-
fairs of the office of Secretary of In
ternal Affairs.
I'm our candidate for Congress-
man-at-Large we recognize in
Messrs. Burke, Crago, Garland and
Walters, men of real worth, and
with their legislative and congress
sional experience in the past we are
assured that they will bring to the
high office to which they aspire all
of those things which make for the
betterment of the people of this
Commonwealth and the advance
ment of our nation at large.
I'm the candidacy for the office
of Superior Court Justice of the
