Smedicy D. Butler for another year in order that he might continue his “clean up” of Philadelphia, t republi- } can organization which dominates that * city was demonstrating why the God- ) fearing people of Pennsylvania thought + it necessary for Butler to continue } Philadelphia is ruled by the machine ' headed by Congre an William S. Vare The Vare organization is hard-boiled, re- sourceful, cold-blooded. It knows noth { ing of sentiment. * John M. Patterson, a popular jurist, ? had been nominated for district attorney. ! He was taken ill a few days before the ) election and on election day he took a ' sudden turn for the worse. He died that ; night. When the news of his sinking spread over Philadelphia on Tuesday, there was general sorrow. But not at the Vare headquarters. There, Vare and his asso- ciates were issuing orders to carry out a piece of cold, carefully-considered polit- ical business. Death threatened their control of the district attorney’s office * and it was necessary for heroic measures It was no time for tears. Messengers were rushed from head- quarters with bundles of stickers con- taining the name of another candidate. While Patterson was dying the machine was making a last-minute effort to elect a live man in his stead Death was to be cheated. It was a grim job—and Shoyer - stickers were pasted on ballots by the thousands. Had the news spread earlier _ in the day, he would have been over- whelmingly elected. In his work at Philadelphia General Butler time and again stepped on the * toes of the Vare forces. He fired their A.
