VOTE THE REPUBLICAN HCKET
To IHI RKCOKDKK
At present there is war and runioisof
war in oui loeul Republican party. There
Is outspoken dissatisfaction with the
methods employed iu one of the wards of
the borough, by tho partisans of the suc-cessful
nominee for Burgess and If the
election, wen held to-day, while the In-dlguatiou
of many of our citizens Is warm,
there would likely bo a lundslide of lt--
publicau rotes to the Democratic nomi-nee.
This Is all wrong In principle and. if
followed, would result in the hopeli
of every future Uoket nominated by the
local Republicans. While the wrttet was
disappointed by the defeat of Mr. Uliicli,
Ii- can seo no i-uson, -x,;-pting personal
pique, for voting against Mr Jacoby.
I have not heard that Mr. Jacoby was
responsible for or even bad any knowledge
of lie-inifuir methods used iu the wiii-l
referred to and why, therefore, should the
penalty for snob action bo paid by hlio.
And oven had he lost the dol-gnt-s In
this ward, In-would still have bad u inn
jority of borough ii-i-gut-s and bean the
expressed and honest choice of the ma-jority
of Conshohocken Republicans.
What valid excuse can he given by Re-publicans
for cutting Mr. Jacoby's name
from the ticket? He Is personally honest
and is a resident for a long period In our
town. While in intellect, he may not be
superior to his competitor,Mr. Kindcrgnn,
he Is sufficiently repn-sentative of our
citizenship, to be tho Hrst choice of a
large number of them. That man who
cannot take a whipping, has no right to
fight and he who will not stand by tin-ticket
when made, unless the candidate
named Is tainted with dishonor, has no
right to vote iu a primary election. Jaco-
[•by has been botore the public for a long
time as a candidate and having run the
gauntlet of the opinion of his party and
beaten presumedly the strongest man
tbat could be put against him, he is enti-tled
to the support of his party. To de
feat him now, would mean that no nomi-nee
will bo suscessful hereafter in a bor-ough
election, and there was never a better
time than now to stop this factional right.
LTnlted we are Invulnerable but divided
we are weakness itself. Heretofore we
have been able to skirmish at the prima-ries
and to join hands at tho polls, but the
bitterness Is getting too marked to hopc
for the continuance of this plan.
Any one can cheerfully vote a ticket
that Is exactly to his liking, but he is a
good Republican who cau forget his pel
soual likes uud dislikes on elsctiou day
and vote for the good of the town and
party.

To Stralihten Its Tracks.
To abolish a sharp curve arrangements
have been made by the Schuylklll Valley
Division of the Pennsylvania Railroad for
purchasing the Clegg mill property on
Clang's lane, west of the River road. West
Munayunk. The road crosses a deep ra-vine
on a trestle bridge a short distance
north of West I .a 11 .-l Hill Statioa. It la
understood that the company will erect a
substantial bridge over theslt»of the mills,
and that a new station will be located on
the north of the ravine to accommodate
persons going to and from tho new West-minster
Cemetery. Work, it Is said, will
be OOtnmsnsed as soon as the weather will
permit. William Clegg, owner of the miB
property, will probably remove his busi-ness
to ono of the vacant mills in Mana-yunk.
Oround Hot Day
Tuesday was ground hog day. The
tradition Is that on the morning of Febru-ary
2 this diminutive animal emerges from
his excavation, snd casts about him eager
and anxious glances, searching for a
shadow of himself. If he sees It, he
whisks swiftly back Into his orifice with-out
even a flirt of his tall, for he knows
by that sign that old Boreas is still to the
fore, and winter reigns supreme.
He saw nothing to affright him. how-ever,
for tho face of tho sky was clouded.
So, If the story of this hog's annual ex-cursion
for investigation bo true, the cold
w-atlier is almost a thing of the post
The Weather Bureau, however, say they
believe the story of tho ground hog to be
purely tlotitious. They tuny be right, but
there are not laeklug those who attribute
this expression of skepticism to profess-ional
lenlousy.
