In a letter addressed to Republi-
cans throughout the county, County
Chairman William II. Horner goes at
length into the qualifications of the
Republican ticket this fall. He pre-
diets an old d-time Republican victory
and urges the voters to turn out next
Tuesday. The letter follows:
"An active campaign for the cleo
ton of the entire ticket at the gem
eral election on Tuesday, November
4, is being conducted by the Dauphin
County Republican Committee. While
it is generally conceded that the
ticket will be elected, nevertheless
the County Committee is taking
nothing for granted and the voters
of the county, regardless of party
affiliation, are being urged to go to
the polls on November and cast
their ballot for the entire ticket,
which is one of the strongest from
the standpoint of fitness for the Of
flee ever nominated in Dauphin
county.
"Dr. H. NJ. Stine and Charles G.
Cumbler, the candidates for County
Commissioners, have been tried and
not found wanting, and they should
be reelected by increased ma1oritles.
IN. Harvey Taylor, candidate for
Recorder of Deeds, has served the
Republican party faithfully and we'll.
His genial disposition and qualifica-
tions to fill the office will make him
n worthy successor to James e.
Lentz, the present recorder. Mr..
Taylor's friends are not confined to
the Republican party alone and ne
will receive support from the voters
of all parties. :.
lone of the most popular candt-
dates on the Republican ticket is
Phil S. Meyer. candidate for Dis
trict Attorney. Mr.. Meyer, through
training and experience at the Dau-
phin county bar, will make an able
district Attorney. His friends all
over the country are rallying to his

hang around barracks drawing pay
were prompted to- march to the govern
ment buildings in Prague. where Presi-
dent Masaryk was informed that they
wished him to address them upon the
subject of high prices He refused. but
said he would see a delegation.
"A delegation presented itself in his
office. There he gave them a quiet
dressing down. such as kindly school
master might give to mischievous boys.
He ended by saying:
IT did not come here to be president
to be ruled by the streets"
The delegation withdrew. The crowd
dispersed and the two Austrian princes
were arrested. Thus passed the nearest
thing Czecho-Slovakia has had to a
revolution.
