time to the recognized and indispensable
such as mathematics, geography. general

yet the education and training of the for

greatest but as n most vital subject Par
ticularly so in Pennsylvania. whose great

Because it is evident to all who con-
slider the matter that it will pay the
defeated faction of the party to be loyal
to the whole ticket it is confidently ex-
pected that the whole ticket will be
elected by sufficient majorities.
The Charter party ticket has been
nominated, as already indicated to trick
the unwary voters into supporting a
ticket and a program in which they do
not believe and to attract the support
of the irreconclable regulars who are
disgruntled because of their defeat at the
primaries 1t is not likely to draw any
more votes than such a contemplate
policy deserves.
The Democratic candidate for the
mayoralty ought to receive the support
of every Democrat, not because there is
any possibility of electing him, but in
order to solidify the opposition party.
This city and this state have suffered
for years because there has been nc
adequate opposition to the Republican
party. The leaders have done as they
pleased, as they knew that their tickets
would be elected anyway. There was nc
one to call them to account. We need q
