Senator Quay, before his departure for Florida, formally announced his candidacy for re election. He was in consultation with Senator Penrose, State Chairman Elkin, ex-Auditor General Mylin, Allen I?. Rorke, Senator Durham and other lieutenants. Sena tor Penrose, Allen B. Rorke and the Beaver man's three sons accompanied him to Florida. The announcement of Senator Quay's candidacy was made in the following signed statement given out by him just before lie left the Hotel Walton for Florida: "Throughout the remarkable cam paign just closed I declined to give ex pression to any opinion regarding the issues involved or the methods resorted to by the enemies of Republicanism, though persistently urged to speak It may not be out of place to briefly do so, now that the battle is over and the victory won. There has never been such a contest in Pennsylvania or any other Commonwealth. Those engaged in the warfare against the Republican candidates and against those conspicu ous in the councils of the party cast issues and principles to the four winds, and the contest was a man-hunt, pure and simple. "Villification and misrepresentation took the place of argument and logic, and the passion of man was appealed to rather than his reason. Never in the history of American politics did personal abuse reach such a high tide of development, not even in the days I of Alexander Hamilton, who was j hounded by malicious enemies as no | man in political life had ever been j before. The result in Pennsylvania ] is not only personally gratifying to me, | but it must be to every fair-minded j Republican in the State. "The sovereign people have, by their emphatic verdict, set the seal of con demnation upon the hideous methods | of campaigning resorted to in the late ; contest, by the enemies of the Republi can party. The falsifier, the scandal- ; monger,the libeler,has been repudiated i by the people, and never again will the present generation witness the performances of this brood of character i assassins. "Despite the extraordinary efforts to : defeat Republican candidates for the • Legislature, which have been success- ] ful in a number of counties, the Gen eral Assembly will be overwhelmingly j Republican, the political complexion of the two bodies being as follows: "Senate-Republicans, MS; Democrats, 12. House —Republicans, 1*27; Demo crats, 74; Independents, 3. "The Legislature will comprise, therefore, 165 Republicans. 80 Demo crats and 3 Independents, a liepubli cro majority on joint ballot of 70, or nearly two-thirds. Regarding the United States Senatorship, I can only say this: All of my personal friends have been aware of my personal an tipathy to another term in the Senate, but those prominent in the late crusade against the Republican State Legisla tive candidates chose to force the issue. "They have made it imperative that I shall be a candidate for re-election. "The guage of battle is accepted. The result is in the hands of the lie publican members of the incoming legislature, a very large proportion of whom are my political and personal friends. "Of the result there can be no pos sible doubt. Throughout the campaign just closed enormous stuns of iioney were used to defeat Republican Legis lative candidates. 1 have no doubt efforts will be made to tamper with , some of the members-elect, but they will not be successful. The attempt to purchase i he United States Senat orship two jean: ago did not succeed then, nor will a similar attempt succeed now, bargain-counter methods having been repudiated by the people of this State. "Should, however, any attempt be made to bride Legislators-elect, the same leniency will not be shown as in the Van Valkenburgcase. That there may be no mistake regarding my posi tion in this matter, I hereby offer a reward of £IO,OOO for information lcad \ ing to the arrest and conviction of any one endeavoring to bribe any State Senator or Representative-elect. The money for the payment of this reward I is on deposit with George A. Iluhu & ; Sons, bankers and brokers, Philadel phia." M. s. QUAY. Farewell Sermon. Rev. W. 11. McNeil will (D.

You are right, they tire sweet scented flowers. Austin Burglarized. The "Saw Dust City" was visited early Tuesday morning by a gang of "bold, bad men," who proceeded to do the place up brown. After procuring a slab they broke in the plate glass window in Warner's jewelry store and secured revolvers and ammunition to the amount of twenty dollars. They then repaired to the Enterprise House and relieved the till of about thirteen dollars in cash, and taking the cigar ease with them up Turner street, where it was emptied of its contents Wat kin's Racket Store was next visited but they couldn't have made much of a racket in effecting an entrance to the store as they found no trouble in reaching the old gentleman's bed room j and gaining possession of his clothes, which they quickly rifled of a watch, pocket book and pair of spectacles. At this hour no further depredations have been reported. No clue to the robbers. Obituary. MRS. MARY ANN ELLIOTT, aged 80 years and four months, died at the residence of Mrs. 11. C.

The Erie Dispatch in commenting on the defeat of Geo Higgins for Congress, in the Erie-Crawford district by only 21 votes, claims the almost unanimous vote of the Prohibitionists (?) was east for the Democratic candidate. Why bless you soul, of course they voted for the Democratic candidate—they will do that always. As a class the Prohibitionists are the most hypo critical, inconsistent and unreliable commodity on the market and may be expected to work and vote with the whiskey class every time, no matter how worthy the other fellow may be or how strong he may be in favor of temperance. Honest, conscientious temperance men are not Prohibition ists—this class of men have long since deserted that crew. Prohibitionists are sore-heads, disgruntled, "holier than thou" class of men—demagogues masquerading tinder the disguise of temperance. Scratch under the hide of nine out of every ten of the leaders and you will find a free trade, free silver Democrat. All for "Reform." The 27tli Congressional district should have six Republican members in the Legislature but the potent in fluences of free silver and lots of it knocked out three of them—two from Venango and one from Cameron. Thank the Lord that Dempsey and Richmond of this county and Parshall of Warren were saved; even if the lat ter only got in by a scratch. Mullin of Cameron, by good rights should have been elected. It is it disgrace that he was not as the rest of the Re publican ticket in that county went through in good shape. It seems that there are treacherous, purchasable Republicans in that county as well as in others of the 27th district.—Kane Republican. Selling Out, Regardless of Cost. We have decided to leave Emporium for a larger town, and everything in the store will be sold regardless of cost.

Senator Magee says he is not a can didate for United States Senator: that he may not vote for Senator Quay in caucus, yet he will support the nominee of that caucus, even should it be Sena tor Quay. Senator Magee is a Repub lican and not a kicker. When he goes into a convention or a contest, he always abides by the decision of the majority. He is consistent—that pays in the long run. The "Holier than Thou" campaign, carried on bv Dr. Swallow, the dema gogue and convicted libeller, followed by a few second fiddles, resulted in an inglorious defeat to them.
