Pastoral Letter Charges Vio
lation of Principles by
Operators.
WASHINGTON. May B.—Certain coal j
operators were scored today by the
Federal Council of the Churches of Christ
In America for refusing: a recent joint
appeal by the Council and the National
Catholic Welfare Council for a conference
to settle the coal strike.
In a pastoral letter to the churches sent
out today, the Council charges that "the
principles of Christ have been and are
being violated,” in the coal industry, with
the result that "it is disorganized, waste
ful of human life and economic goods,
and is endangering the peace of the com
munity.”
The letter pointed out that the miners
agreed to a joint conference to settle their
differences with the operators, but that
“certain operators doomed the plan to
failure, by refusing to live up to previous
agreements for a conference.”

PENNSYLVANIA
GOVERNOR MAY
BEDEMOCRAT
Death of Penrose Upsets All
Political Dope in Keystone
State.
PITTSBURGH, Pa, May B—At the
coming election in November Pennsyl
vania may see a political overturn from
its long record of “machine Republican
ism” that may outdo Kansas at its best.
It is almost a 50-50 proposition, as it
now stands, that the next Governor will
be a "machine Republican,” a “Bull
Moose Republican" or a “State Grange
Chief.” who is a Ttemocrat. It will be'
a fight with unlimted financial backing]
betwen the factions seeking the nomiua-i
tion of the primary on May 16.
The Pennsylvania political situation nt
this time stands unique in the history of'
American politics. The twenty years 01
war among the Democrats has been ended i
and there now is harmony within the f
ranks. On the other hand, the Repub :
lieans are bitterly fighting among them
selves.
“Ob that Penrose was only alive.” wail
four or five factious of the Republican j
party.
When Boies Penrose was alive he was|
master of Pennsylvania with an iron |
hand. When the factions had fought
long enough he Just flattened them out
In short order and there was peace. But
when Penrose died the great iron clad
Penrose “machine” also died.
STRENGTHENING
MACHINE.
In years past the strongest opposition
the Penrose machine had came from "the
Vares” In Philadelphia. They had a
powerful organization and controlled part
of Philadelphia, at least. They were the ;
Pat MeCarrens of Pennsylvania politics.
Since Penrose died "the Vares" are to
all intents and purposes in control of tiv
G. O. P. organization in this St.it° and
they arc moving heaven ami eartit to ;
make alliances to strengthen their already:
powerful Philadelphia machine.
But to get back to the Governorship,
While the various leaders were fighting
about the seat of Senator William I
Crow. State tanking mmlssiont r. Join
S Fisher of Indiana. Pa., hopped into Co
ring and announced he was a candidate
fop Governor. He has the bat-king of
Joseph Grundy, president of the Penn
sylvania Manufacturers’ Association, an i
of the so-called Oliver organization of
Pittsburgh. The Olivers are worth un
told millions: Joe Grundy I s rich and lus
manufacturers' association has money
world without end.
Not long after Fisher announced his
candidacy for the Governorship. Star
Forester Gifford Pinchot threw his "hat
in the arena," and said he. too. was n
candidate for Governor. Nobody took
him seriously, but Pinchot kept sawing
wood anti made remarkaide headway
Recently State leaders recognized 1 im-hot
as a powerful contender. Efforts were
made to eliminate both him and FI-' ‘ r
and a few others. Pinchot opin'd he
would stu k it out, and Fisher did t-ie
same.
MA N V
CONFERENCES HEED.
Conference after conference was hejd.
mainly In Philadelphia, to pick a "har
mony” candidate to be backed by the
other wings of the Republican oarly to
stand against the field. Finally Attor
ney General George E. Alter of Spring
dale, near Pittsburgh, was chosen as the
“harmony" candidate. Forthwith Lieu
tenant Governor E. S. Bcidlemati and
John A. Mackey, two strong contenders,
withdrew in favor of Alter That left
Pirn-hot. Fisher and Alter in the r.e c on
the Republican side.
John O. MeSparran, president f the
Pennsylvania Grange, is the Democrat!
candidate.
The real fight Is being made now by
the Republican candidates, for the pri
mary of May 16 will eliminate two of the
three candidates.
The State of Pennsylvania, which gave
Theodore Roosevelt the record-treating
plurality of 600.000 as a regular Repub
lican candidate for President., may go
Democratic this fall. If has been twenty
seven years since a Democratic Governor
sat at Harrisburg. Robert E. Pattison
was the last and lie quit office in 189.'..
He had served two terms with on In
terim of one term.
MeSparran, the Democratic candidate
for Governor, is immensely popular, and
being president of the State grange will
give him the farmer Btrpport to a sur
prising degree.
