Speaking of the state council of
the Junior Order United American
Mechanics of Pennsylvania which as
semble here September 19, the Pitts
berg Leader says:
These sessions are held annually and
of late years the representatives have
been constantly Increasing ln numbers,
and at the next session the officials
expect about 750 delegates.
' There are over 80,000 members of
the Jr. O. U. A. M, In this state and the
business connected therewith always
requires a few days' deliberation, and
the coming session will probablyilast
days. As ln nearly every convention,
the contest for oltlee will be one of the
Important events. A state councilor
Is to be elected, a state vice councior
and three representatives to the
national councils.
For state counollor William T. Kerr
of Pittsburg, at present state vice
councilor, will ln all probability have
no opposition. For state vice councilor
there are two candidates, Robert W.
Crane, of Philadelphia, chairman of
the finance committee of the state
council, and John K. Marlin, also of
Philadelphia. Mr. Crane has an ad.
vantage ot a more active service for
the order, being popular, well-known
able. For national rpresestatlves thera
are six candidates: A. D. Wilkin, Esq.,
of Mansfield, Pa., chairman of the state
law committee and a well-known attor
ney of the Alleygheny county bar; If.
J. Davis of Johnstown, Pa., secretaiy
of the advisory council of Cambria
county! Victor G. Reed of Philadel
phia; George C. Morgan, Newcastle;
William V.Elkins of Philadelphia and
. H. Temple ot Johnstown,
All the candidates announced are
well known, but one of the prominent
leaders ln this section states that the
chances are greatly in Jnvor ot the
first three named as they represent
the opposition to the "slate" candi
dates. There are none more popular
than A. D. Wilkin, Esq. He has served
tour years on the state law committee,
and during the last legislature was an
active member ot the state legislative
committee of the Jr. O. U. A. M., which
did such good service for the compul
soiy education and free text-book bill.
lie was first secretary ot the Allegh
eny county adtlsory council and has
taken such an active part ln all the
the movements of the orderthat he Is
known by all. W, S. Davis is well and
favorably known throughout Cambria,
Somerset, Westmorland and surround
ing counties. His activity has force
him Into prominence. The same can
be said of Victor G. Reed of Phlladeh
phlawhoon several occasions served
upon state committees. One Impor
tant measure to be acted upon is the
proposition introduced by a principal
ol a city school to ohange the time of
meeting from the third Tuosday in
September the third Tuesday in
Julv.
The country representatives iook
upon it as a movement which will in
terfere with their their attendance and
give still greater power to the city
rt jrjesentatives.
Anotner measure is tnat oi matting
the terms of representative for two
vears Instead of one. There is no doubt
but that this session will be the most
Important one of any in recent years
from many standpoints.
