It's hard to say whether the Pennsylvania Re publicans' financial opulence or po litical bankruptcy Is moro striking. Here in this huge state, where the Democrats have given the votera four years of really nauseous government, the Republicans had their great op portunity. They might have won with any mildly liberal, fairly personable candidate. Instead, they have chosen to out Hanne, Mark Hanna. The Republican party In Pennsylvania is not Just controlled by big business. It ac tually la big business. In the persons of the following five worthies: Moses L. Annenberg, who began life In the purlieus of Chicago, made a huge fortune from a racing tip sheet and poolroom news service, And set up to be a statesman when he bought the" Philadelphia Inquirer for a reputed S16.000.000. He has pur chased an Immense Influence In the Republican party, much in the man ner of a flush bookmaker buying l piece of a broken-down Broadway leg-show. Joseph N. Pew. the Sun OH Co. millionaire. A great political butter and egg man. Pew owns a piece of the party only allghtly amaller than Annenberg's. He must enjoy spend ing his money, for Pew candidates have rarely won, and he goes right on backing new ones. Ernest T. Weir, the powerful stcei- master. His belief In his own brand of industrial feudalism Is quite hon eat.and Indeed almost religious. Un fortunately. It makes him anathema to all Pennsylvania labor. Josepk N.

The program applies to the Beurre Anjou, Bucrro Bosc. Winter Nells, Doyenne du Cornice. Beurre Easter. Beurre Clalrgeau and Beurre Hardy varie ties of winter pears.

Oregon-Washlngton-Callfornla Pear League headquarters are here, 407 Liberty building on West Main street, with Ralph G. Bardwell as general manager. Growers and shippers may procure full Information regarding the subsidy plan at league headquar- ters, Mr. Bardwell said The subsidy plan In general Is similar to that of last year, Mr. Bard well said.
