Philadelphia, May 7. —From the num ber of inquiries being received by the •jffleers of the State League of Repub lican Clubs there is going to be a great gathering in this city on the occasion Df the reception and dinner to United States Senator Matthew Stanley Quay an the 14th inst. The chances are that they will have to stop receiving sub scriptions to the dinner earlier than was anticipated, as the capacity of Horticultural Hall will be too small to accommodate all those who wish to ittend. The reception, which will be given an the same evening in the Academy of Music, will be one of the most bril liant and Interesting functions ever held in this state. Arrangements have been made for the distribution of the private boxes, so that the wives and Dther female relatives and friends of the party leaders can have a chance to witness the spectacle and listen to the sloquence of those who have been In vited to address the immense throng which is sure to be there. Besides Senators Quay and Penrose, among those who will make addresses ire Governor Stone, President Moore, Df the State League of Republican Clubs, and other well known Republl :ans. These speeches will be made in the Academy of Music. While the dinner is being served In the adjoining hall there will be a mu sical entertainment given in the Acad smy, for which a very attractive pro gram has been arranged. Information regarding cards of ad mission to the reception can be had by iddressing J. Hampton Moore, care of City Hall, Philadelphia, and about sub scriptions to the dinner from J. Martin Rommel, Betz Building, Philadelphia. PHILADELPHIA NOT ENVIOUS. It Is becoming evident that upon so ber second thought many Philadel phians believe a mistake would be nade If the bill were passed for the removal of the state capital from Har rlsburg to Philadelphia. "There is no particular reason why there should be a change from Harris aurg to Philadelphia," says the Phila delphia Inquirer. "In these days of rapid railroad trains Philadelphia is is easily reached from all parts of the state as is Harrlsburg, and this city would welcome the legislature, should it come here and erect a fine building. But Harrisburg has been the capital for many years, the interest of its cit izens are largely involved in that fact, ind to change the site would be a great hardship resulting in considerable pe junlary losses to them. It is mucu better to let the capital remain where it is. "But one thing is certain. Pennsyl vanians do not care to put up with a barn for a capltol building. They have ;ot pride enough to demand that their itate shall hold up its head with the oest of them. A start has been made upon the new building. It is true that it is as yet a mere shell, but this shell Is composed of iron and Are brick, and in Indestructible. What is needed is to ?ive the rough brick exterior a face of jranlte or of marble, to add on wings, ;ear out all the temporary stairways md flimsy committee room furnishings, md to turn out a completed fire proof structure. "The plans for the building are known to all those who have taken the trouble to look into Smull's Handbook. The picture of the building as it will look when completed is familiar, and there has been no attempt that has imounted to anything to call the arch itectural plans into question. For f5,000,000 a noble structure of which the entire state can be proud can be provided, and this sum the senate has igreed to. "As a matter of fact, there is no par ticular opposition to the expenditure Df this amount, but a lot of insurgents who feel that it is incumbent upon them to raise a racket fibout every :hing oppose the bill because under it the governor is to name the commis sioners who are to superintend the building operations. THE STATE MISREPRESENTED. Every patriotic Pennsylvanian must ieplore the latest contemptible tactics Df the insurgent newspapers In seek ing to create the impression that the interests of Pennsylvania are being neglected at the Buffalo exposition. The facts are that a commission of some of the most representative men Df the state has been appointed, an appropriation of $35,000 has been made ind there is already under way and | aearing completion a magnificent state ! Duiidlng located in one of the most at ' :ractlve sections of the exposition i grounds. The building will be the 1 aeadquartera of Pennsylvanians who ! visit the exposition, and they will have j jvery reason to be proud of their state \ n the character of the building, Its ap j and the general display [ that will be made. CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, MAY 9, 1901. Letter to Thos. Gallagher. Emporium, Pa. Dear Sir: Paint is one of the things that Railroad Companies know all about Do you know what "all about" means? It means, in paint, where to get it. We sell the paint for two-thirds of the cars and stations and bridges ind everything else, that railroad men want to keep good-looking and sound, all over the country. A man who wants a gallon or two of paint knows nothing about it; buys whatever is handy, or gets some paint er to "make" it. A Railroad Company asks its chem ist: "which is the best?" The cheapest thing, to preserve or beautify anything with, is paint. So the whole world in painted; except, of course, the part of it owned by poor slow folks. And the paint thev use is people's intelligence-meter; or ignorance-meter; tells how much or how little they know. Lead and oil has had its day. Devoe lead and zinc is the paint, because it wears twice as long. Yours truly, 33 F. W. DEVOE & Co. Stolen sweets are liable to fiive one in digestion of the conscience. Good Advice.
