and if upon this occasion I wore to

FOB PERMANENT PRESIDENT, R. MILTON
SPEER,
Tho eceno which followed the nom
ination of K. Milton Speer, for per
manent President of tbe Convention
ill never be foriroltcn by any one
who witnessed it. For twenty min-
utos ociore mo committee on perms
nent organization entered tho Ii nil. il
was known that Mr. Spocr's friends
nau succeeded in having a roport mado
up in his favor. Tho rumor run from
lip to lip, and the announcement was
received with mingled incredulity and
indignation. Following thcannounce-
mont came a rumor that a movion
would be mado to reject the report of
the committco, and this was received
with unmistakable and almost univer
sal signs of approval. heu the
chairman of tbe committco handed
in his report there was breathless si
lo nco in the convention. 1 he an
nouncernont thut Mr. SnoAr hurt hon.
recemmendod by the committee for
the position of permanent chairman
did not brook Ihe solemn and portcn
tious pauso. Quietly, in a tono of
voice wbich was decidedly low, but
with measured enunciation that made
every syllablo audiblo in tbe romolest
corners ot tbe lurgo court chamber.
A. litestand t.lalz, ot lork county.
moved that tho report of the commit-
teo, so fur as it related to permanent
president do non-concurred in. Jn
brief phrase, without circumlocution,
Mr. Gluts announced thut bo made
tho motion becauso ho had been rclia
bly Informed that Mr. Speer had taken
duck, pay as a congressman. As Mr.
(ilate took bis seat a murmur of ap
plause rose which swelled until it filled
tha room. It was not boisicrouB, but
the spectator could roadily porcoive
tnni it indicated the opinion ot a ma
only ot the delegates. .Mr. Spcor
must, nave noticed this, lor bis luce
was gbuslly in its palor as be roso in
hi soul and addressed the chair, lit
was well known to most of tbo mem
bcrs of tho convention, having beon
a regular attendant at Sluto conven
tions. Ho possesses tho advantage of
a tall Dgure and a commanding pres
ence. With a high forehead, a pro
fusion of black hair and marked fea
tures, be is a man who would attract
allonlion in any assombly. Here ho
win among bis friends and intimate
acquaintances, men whom ho hud
known for years, men wbo had trusted
and conhded In him
It ia safo to sot that thero was not
a man upon the floor of the Conven
tion or among the crowds in tho ainles
and galleries wbo entertained tho
slighlvnl feeling of personal animosity
towards mm. tin tho contrary, bo
had the sympathies of tho assemblage
with him Tho delegates sat there im
pressed with Ihe samo sense of respon
sibility which weihes down a tender
hearted judge when ho is called upon
lo pass the sovorest sentence upon an
offender who has elicited bis sympathy.
Tho silence was profound when Mr.
Spcor began his remarks, and it con
tinued so lo such a marked extent thai
Iho xpenkor could bo heard lo draw
his breath botween the periods of bis
pcenh. 'lucre was a quaver in his
voico as ho begun wbich continued
until near tho close, when bo turned
towards Mr. Glutzand hurled defiance
al him, accompanied by recrimination.
Thon his voice grow harsh, as he made
harsh charges and then a flush of in
dignation swept over his blanched
eks. Once or twice during the
pee ch of Mr. Spoer sorqe of the I'hiltt-
Iphia delegation chipped their hands
nd alamped with their foct, and this
Itompl at nppluuao mot with a faint
response Irom scattered delegates
throughout tho hull. For the most
art, however, the delegates and audi
ence preserved a complete and rospocl-
nil, Dut an omimnus and dishearten
ing silunce. Mr. Spoor did not defy
puhlio sentiment. His speech was an
earnest and very hum bio plea in his
own Dclialf. llo made no demands,
bo asserted no rights, bo merely irn-
ored and begged the convention lo
pare him from tho threatened humili
ation. As ho turned from side to
ido, as he appealed to dolegalos by
name, bo could not help seeing thai
in the breasts of a vast majority a
sense of puhlio duly was repressing
and smotiioring ths sympathies excit

MONAOHAN'S SPEECH.
No synopsis of tho speech of Mr.
Monaghan would do justice to him.
Ho said that it was the most unpleas
ant duty of his life to oppose tbe ele
vation of one who had always been
his warm personal friend lo an bonor-
ablo posiiion. -Nothinir but regard
for the best interest of tho Democratic
parly, and through it the best inter
ests of tho country could induce him
to opon his lips. - Back of this Con
vention slood tho hard fisted yeoman
ry of the State, the farmers, tho me
chanics, tbe working men. Whether
these Congressmen wore wilhin con
stitutional limits wben they went to
tho national treasury and took from
it tho money of the peoplo was not tbe
point at issue. Tho moral aspoct of
the question was what the Convention
musl consider. Tho indignant masses
could not bo expected to pause over
the cobidoralion of legal technicalities
in such a case. They wont directly
to the matter in hand, and determined
it by the commonest rules of common
honesty. If they hired a man for so
much a month they did not expect
him lo put his hand in their pockets
and tako out ono third nioro. They
would not tolorato that, and they had
a very short and homoly name for
such a transaction. Tho taxpayers
feel thut Ihcy have been wrunged by
what they call tbe Congressional Sal
ary grab. Turning lo the agricultural
districts we find a general gloom rest
upon tho pooplo. Heavy taxation
taxation increased that officials may
livo in luxurious chso, sucn expendi
tures as are involved in tins grub tiv
brought a weight of debt upon tho
farming classes. Go to the Court
House in Chester county, and there,
four times in each year, you will find
a list of SherifTs sales, reaching front
ceiling to floor. In my own county,
men who have worked hard since they
loft their cradles, till now that tbey
are tottering into their graves, are
being sold out by tho Sheriff. Tbey
turn lo our servants for they are1
our servants and not our masters
and find that they who were sent to
Congress have opened tho public treas
ury and r.elpcd themselves, iou, sir;
you, sir, Jlr. ppcor, and tho rest ot
Ihoso men, took (15,000 lor a few
months' service, while old men, your'
constituents, have not mado so much
in a long lite ot honest toil.
Shall this man come hero and ask us
to advanco him and outrago tbe mil

might make tho most of this; that
tbey were going to drive this Ihing
through the Convention. Let the

we stand straight on this record we

bile Mr. Monaghan was speaking.
J.' Lawrence GcU, ex-Congressmatt
from Berks county, could not keep his
scat. At least half a dozon times be
leaped from his chair and callod out
-Mr. J. resident in a weak voice,
which was almost smothered by agi
tation. His fuccshowod that ho was

to lose all presence of mind. A friend
stood by and tried lo calm him, but

paused to gather breath, Gelz bound--ed
to bis feet and called out "Mr.
President" in tones which sounded
like a hoarse whisper. The Presi
dent did not seem to hear bim, nnd
Mr. Monsghnu either failed to see hiiu
or persistently refused to nolico his at
tempted interruptions. P inal!y,when
Monaghan hud concluded Mr. Gcta
succeeded in attracting the attention
ot tho President. Commencing in a.
low tono of voice ho proceoded to pro--
nonnco a eulogy upon Mr. Speer, but
had not proceeded far until ho an
nounced that he had gono further than
Mr. Speer without violating his con
victions of right, that he bad not only
taken the buck pay but voted for ii.
It needed no more. That nnnonnro.
mont was followed instantly byasibi
lation of hisses that filled the largo'
hall with a sound so peculiar and au-
startling that all who heard will re-
member it while lilo lasts. Then
through this undertone of intenso in
dignation thoru broke a yell of wrath
which swept around the largo auditori
um, until its echoes filled every nook
and recess and extended through tbo
outsido aroa to tho streets beyond.
