DEMOCRATIC PEACE RALLY lub Tries to Overcome Fril chey Banner Soreness; "Pass Key" Night Democratic bosses last night lined up the Democratic candidates for county offices that they could get hold of and held a meeting in the rooms of the. Central Democratic club In an attempt to overcome the had effect caused by stringing of a banner from the club windows declaring for Dr. C. Albert Frltchey for recorder and no one else. As there were several candidates present they helped materially to swell the crowd.

The rooms have a capacity on sandwich nights or when gubernatorial candidates coma around of something like 157. There was plentv of standing room left last night and the "utmost harmony" prevailed regarding seating accommodations. Candidates, men who wanted to be candidates and some men who want to be candidates some other time relieved their minds. It was the latest day in a campaign in which the opening Democratic meeting has ever been held in the county and it was freely commented upon around town last night that If the blunder of throw out Frltchey's banner had not been committed there would have been no meeting as scant encouragement has been given to the sandwich fund this year and some top liners, who visited "the club last year, have not been around since 1915 began. It is understood that the club set aside its rule against admitting any one not a Democrat and not holding a pass key in order to squeeze in a couple of the fusion gangsters' candidates, but they were not cordially received except by the bosses, some of the candidates, two of the defeated candidates and a half dozen of the hope to be candidates.

Verily, the issues of the campaign from a straight Democratic standpoint were set forth, but not in the speeches. Miss Bertha Cofrode Dies From Typhoid Pneumonia Special to The Telegraph Dauphin.

"Do we not rather all agree that tne majority of college students do not know, five years after graduation, what they gave sufficient evidence of knowing to pass the college examinations?
