WHiUAMSPORT.
ON THE EVE OF THE COSVJS.NT1WN.
Nine candidates rer State Treasurer aud All
Hopeful Seme Dark Horses The
New Bale.
Special Dispatch te the Ixtexziqkxckk.
"Wii.liamspert, Sept. 27. Nearly all
the delegates te the Democratic state
convention will have arrived by this even
ing. Eight of the nine' aspirants for state
treasurer are en the ground and working
earnestly for the nomination. Cel. Guthrie,
the only missing candidate, will appear
this afternoon, brinsinsr with him the Al
legheny county delegation.
The committee en rules has prepared a
report te be submitted te the convention,
tt recommends the abolition of senatorial
delegates and authorizes the state commit cemmit
mittce, which is te consist of the chairmen
of county committees, te meet in;iTarris
burg annually in January and select a
chairman and permanent secretary aud also
te decide en the temporary organization
and roll en the evening before the meeting
of each state convention.
Nene of the candidates are sure of vic
tory, but all bone that something will
turn up te insure their success. Pro
tracted balloting is among the probabili
ties. Davis, of Philadelphia, and Neble,
of Erie, anucar te be iu the lead, but if
either of the two is nominated it will be
Neble. K.
Wii.biAMSPOKT, Sept. 27.
It is impossible te make any forecast the
the outcome of the convention. A dozen
candidates are here with friends, and all
are determined te pres-j for the nemina
tien. Nenn of them will hear te anything
except their own success, nor will any
consider second choice. Philadelphia is
harmonious and nearly solid for Davis.
Neble's friends are here iu force and hard
at work. Kcir has a goad deal of quiet
strength. As yet nobody can count en
ever fifty 'votes en first ballet, and this
indicates a hard struggle a lengaud close
contest, with as geed chance for the
present weak as for the strong candi
dates ; a better chance for the
dark herse than any. There are
whispers of Jeseph Powell, of Bradford,
or Rebert E. James, of Northampton, as
possible, new men ; neither is a candidate.
Neble feels that he is in the dangerous
position of leading candidates net strong
enough te win, but with enough strength'
te combine the field for his defeat.
There is no sign whatever of
any factional light. Wallace is busy
trying a case iu the United States
court and Randall is at Cleveland. The
most noticeable thing here is the utter
absence of anything, like caucuses, rings
or bosses. Friends of candidates indisposed
te meet for council behind closed doers .'est
they be suspected of ring purposes, and as
yet there is net even mention of any name
for chairman of the convention, of com
mittees, or state committee.
The committee of rules will report te.
night te the state central committee as fol fel
lows :
The New Kules.
Te the Democratic State Central Cemmittee:
Your committee begs leave te submit the rules
appended hereto as fit and suitable for the gov
ernment of the Democratic party in this state,
directing the manner of organizing the state
committee and state convention, and providing
for their own amendment.alteratien or abrogation,
whenever the same may appear necessary or ex
pedient. in considering the duty assigned them, and in
reaching the conclusions herewith submitted,
the members of the committee were guided simply
by a desire te meet what seems te be the almost
unanimous wish of the party in the state:
First. That whatever system of organization is
te prevail should be formally expressed, instead of
being left te be contended about year after year,
as occasions arise which are tee often met by the
determination of disputed precedents, according
te the interests of the majority
Secondly, Te amend the existing unwritten
rules in certain features which have been a source
of needless and easily-te-bc-prevcnted irritation.
The members of the committee are confident
that a fair examination of their recommendations
will disclose no radical changes proposed in these
existing regulations which long use has commend
ed te the approval of the party ; and that in the
respects in which the previous practices have
proved deficient or unsatisfactory, practicable
corrections are offered.
It is proposed te substitute for the present re re
resentatien en the state committee the county
chairmen ex officio; because they are the best
representatives of the local organizations and
stand near te the party masses, and their associa
tion will be the most reliable and best representa
tive state council ; because, being elected at dif
ferent times, they will constitute a continuing
body, Subject tane complete dissolution nor sud
den reorganization,, and of very gradually chang
ing membership ; and, because, by this arrange
ment, there will be avoided the possibility of any
conflict of rights or duties between the state com
mitteemen and county chairmen.
The annual meeting of the committee is fixed
for January, because it is believed its organization
and action then will be freer, than otherwise, from
the personal and sectional influences which tee
often interfere with state conventions and control
the selection of state chairman with narrower
views than for the general party welfare. Be
sides, in the winter months and between the ex
citement of political campaigns the most effective
work can be devised and put into operation te in
fluence independent and thoughtful voters.
The state executive committee, under control
of the state committee, is proposed for the special
management of campaigns, when a closer atten
tion and greater concentration are needed than
can reasonably be expected or is even desirable
from the larger body, besides preventing the
withdrawal of the state committeemen from their
important local duties. The ex officio member
ship of the chairman and secretary of the state
central committee in the executive committee will
prevent any conflict between these commit
tees. In the election of executive officers of these
committees tlie greatest flexibility is desirable te
accommodate the selections te varying exigencies,
while the minority vote plan of cheesing the ex
ecutive committee prevents misrepresentation or
lack of representation of any element of the party.
The abolition of senatorial delegates is intend
ed te abate an entirely useless system of repre
sentation, since every county in the state new
has at least one representative, and the selection
of senatorial delegates, as well as their anomalous
position in the convention, has tee often been the
occasion of discord and unseemly strife. In many
ether States they are net known.
The necessity el some prima jacte roil ler a
convention is manifest, and no better or fairer
way te make it can be. devised than that suggest
ed by the committee ; the meeting of the whole
State committee te revise the list of delegates af
fords a means of protection from any serious error
or fraud.and the rules still permit the:committee, in
cases of closely contested rights te seats and ina
bility te decide prima facie rights, the power te
exclude both contestants from the temporary or
ganization ; fictitious contests, tee common in the
past, should plainly net bar henesf delegates from
admission.
The selection of the temporary organization by
the state committee in the manner proposed, will
facilitate the proceedings, prevent a needless
strife at the outset, and remove the incentive
which frequently exists for the waging of con
tests; while the fixing by rule of the number and
mode of selection of the regular committees will
remove the motive which generally prompts a con
test ever the temporary organization.
Senatorial delegates being abated the selection
of committees is urged te be made by Congres
sional districts as affording a convenient number
and a proper system of representation.
Due prevision is made for changes in the rules
by the same process with which they were adop
ted. Other changes and methods brought te the no
tice of the committee have net been incorporated
in. these rules, net because the committee deem
them entirely complete, but because it is consid
ered better te defer radical innovations until fair
trial shall have been given the proposed revision,
while matters of detail can be safely left te the
committees and conventions.
Inviting from the committee full investigation
and discussion of these prepositions, and from
the convention, should they be recommended te
it, due consideration of all that is offered, the
rules are respectfully submitted.

A KEAOINU I'UEaCUEIC.
What II Knows A bout Democratic Sincerity
Spirit of i:crk" Interview.
' I did say, and I repeat it, that it is a
very convenient thing for these who havs
slandered this geed man in the past, new
te make Guiteau and the devil scapegoats
te bear away their sins. Ne ene man
killed .lames A. Garfield. There are two
elements that made Guiteau one was the
element of partisan abuse (that's the
Democratic party) and thu ether the in in
iquiteus spoils system (that's the Repub
lican party.) One year age there was no
mere abused man than Garfield. Te day he
receives a burial such as no king ever
had. The same people who slandered
President Garfield during the campaign,
have mourned ever his dead body and
laud him te the skies fur his goodness and
his purity te-day. Either they slandered
and lied about him then, or they arc insin
cere new. I take it that they are sincere
new, for it is popular te be sincere in this
case. Therefore, I argue that they lied anil
slandered a year age and they knew it.
Take the Reading jrew,forinstance,efoiir
own city. A year age they printed what
tney knew te lie a lie and a forgery, and,
heading it '(Jarlield's death warrant,'
spread it broadcast through this city and
county. They knew they were lying, yet
they did it anyhow. And I condcmn.witli cendcmn.witli condcmn.witli
eut any reservation whatever, this spirit
of partisan abuse, se common in our coun
try." The representative suggested tbat Mr.
Mills's remarks had given offense te some
Of the Democratic citizens of the city. Te
ibis idea the reverend gentleman replied,
" I don't care what they think or
what they say. I de net accuse the
Democrats of killing Garfield, but I de say
that slander heaped npen tlie president a
year age, aud the infamous Jackseniau
spoils system invented by tlie Democrats
and festered by the Republicans,
se wrought upon Guitcau's mind as te
bring him te the awful deed he committed.
TheA"ews quotes me as saying ' I hate
Guiteau.' In this, again, they misconstrue
my remarks. What I said was ' I hate the
practice of partisan abuse ajid I hate the
principles of the cursed" spoils system.'
Partisan abuse was one edge of the
sword that killed General Garfield, and
the spoils system the ether. I care net
what people may say of me ; if they
wish te take olTense at what I have said
they can de se, or they can let it alone ;
iust as the ntcasc. I put It even stronger
I than the papers represent me as doing.
though 1 did net use the words attributed
te inc. Reth parties are responsible for
the death of Garfield, and neither one
is less iuneccnt than the ether. Guiteau
is, of course, responsible Ter his own
individual sin, but the cause given te you
a moment age are te- blame for bringing
this terrible crime te pass. It is time te
call a halt in the principlcsef politics, and
both parties should turn ever a new leaf.
One sacrifice such as has becu offered
in the person of James A. Garfield is
enough.' And as for the Democrats of
Reading being mad at what I said, I care
net at all. It makes no iliHeiencc te me.
Geed evening.
