Opposition to appointments and the temperance issue in Pennsylvania
Harrisburg February 6 1883 The rejection of Davis Page as Philadelphia Controller surprised. The General Judiciary Committee almost unanimously favored reporting him to the Senate yet the Ring bloc prevented confirmation. The temperance debate centers on the constitutional reform joint resolution and its costly repeal clause. Prohibitionists push to restore the original form while many supporters fear a $40 million state expense. Liquor interests leverage lobbyists as temperance advocates rely on petitions and speeches.
