The contest is a fight on John Booth, lie has been one of the leaders nl' ihe Republican Partj In this county for years 11«- has mi BXS tO grind; be is no seeker alter ottiee but believes that every good citizen should interest him-self in the selection of those who govern us, and make our laws. He has linBelflshly helped many of our town to positions of honor and profit; although one of the busiest of men he has never been too busy to help along a friend when in need. \oi feeling in good health last win-ter he went to Florida in March, and on his return home found that plans had been made to eliminate him from County politics. Very nearly every one of the "workers" in the party, not seeing the plan, had unthinkingly made promises against Mr. Booth's in-terest When this plot was unfolded to Mr. Booth there was a stormy time and then came the determination that there would be a fight. Mr. Booth came out flat-footed as a delegate to the state convention, and refused to hide behind any one else. He is asking the sup-port of his townsmen, believing mat the great majority will not counte-nance underhand tactics, and asks tor their suffrage as a fellow resident. The cry has been raised that this is a fight for Penrose. This is non-sense. That light will come when the Legislature ll elected. Then every candidate will have to come out in the open. There will be no shirking then. Kach one who does not come out flat-llootcd against Senator Penrose will be labeled as hi.- friend. This l'en-i i y is one raised to cloud the is-sue FOURTH OF JULY CELEBRATION Conshohocken is to have a mon parade ami ma.-s meeting with patri-otic speeches and singing on the Fourth ol July, according to plans now being made by Waahlta Tribe ol Men.
