Elkin and Quay Rivalry in Pennsylvania Gubernatorial Fight
In Allegheny County a push to defeat Senator Matthew Stanley Quay may propel John P. Elkin to the Republican nomination for governor of Pennsylvania. The Pittsburg reformers oppose Elkin for cabinet ties to Gov. Stone, while Harry Oliver works in Florida to urge Quay to intervene. Public sentiment labels Gov. Stone's actions as betrayals, and critiques of Recorder Brown’s removal frame the political tension.

Revarn grocer appeals ruling on raspberry syrup preservative

The grocer warned enforcement would be difficult and cited continued use of sulphates in dried fruits.
