Committee in calling a State tonven

Conventio . or the purpose of nom
inating • idates for I'resident and
'Vice Preside - This action — of the
Committee lias occast . efei considera
ble discussion throaghant the • State,
as to its propriety, theie being a dif
ference of opinion regarding ' the
manner in which the -delegates
should be chosen. It is claimed by
some, that the selection of delegates
to the National Convention properly
belongs to the people of the Districts,
and that the assumption of the pow
er by the State COnvention,is contra
ry to precedent and of doubtful pro
priety.
As there is no difference of opinion
as to how delegates in the National
Convention should vote, this is per
haps an auspicieus time to definitely
settle the manner of their selection.
There is no binding 'force in preced
ents, because there - has not been any
settled policy since the organization
of the Republican party. In 1860,
the delegates were selected by the
Convention. In they were elect
ed in the districts. In 1868, the:
State. Convention in calling a Con;
vention, instructed the people in the
districts to select their delegates to
the Nati - onal Convention; notwith
standing which,the State Convention
assumed the right to Select and in
struct the delegates although most of
the districts had,' already Named
-them. True, the State Convention,
adopted 'the names already suggest.:
ed, in every case except one, throw
ing out the delegate from the -Dau
phin district, thus asserting the right
and power of the State Convention
to name the delegation.
• Precedent, therefore, if it has any
binding force, is in faVer Of the elec
tion by the State Convention. The
propriety of the delegates being thus
chosen, is in our opinion, decidedly
manifest. To say that the delegates
may be chosen in the districts, inde
pendent of the State C onvention, is
to concede that any instructions by
the latter body are not binding. If
a delegate is chosen lby a district,
then he may be -instructed by the
body which elects him, or not being
so instructed, is at liberty to vote in
such a manner as in his judgment,
will represent the r- wishes of his con
stituents. This is all right and proper
if we deny the right ofl the State Con-'
vention to speak the voice of the
State, and authoritively indicate the
wishes and preferences of the party
of the Commonwealthi
The selection of delegates by a
State Convention is not an arbitrary
act, nor does it take from the people
any privileges. The usual mode of
procedure in selecting delegates and
committees,is for the delegation from
each Congressional or -.Senatorial
district, as_the case may be, to name
the person they desire to be placed in
the position. These delegates repre
sent the voters just as well and di
rectly, as if they were conferees elect
ed to a district conference, for that
purpose. Their reconimendation is
always respected. No State Conven
tion would place upon the State Cen
tral Committee, nor send as a dele
gate to the National Convention from
this or any other. disttict any man
who was not acceptablELto the dele
gates to the State Coniention.
We believe it is generally desired
that in National Conventions the
vote of the State should be cast as a
unit that the . strengtli and promi
nence of the Keystone' may be ac
nowledged and felt in the action and
deliberations of that body. This can
only be done by a harmonious and
united delegation. And this latter
can only be secured by permitting
the State Convention,as representing
the Republican party of-the State, to
declare who is choice of that par
ty for the offices to be filled. _ .
It would be the acme of folly for the
State Convention to announce that
the re-nomination of Gen. GRANT was
the unanimous desire of the Repub
licans of Pennsylvania, and that the
delegation was instructed to vote, for
him at thesame time adopting a course
which would permit of an avowed
and bitter enemy to the President
being chosen as a delegate. in a man:
n7 - which would give him a reasona
ble excuse for setting such instruct
ions at defiance.
We dO not mean to attack the mo
tires of those who are assailing this
action of the State Committee, but it
looks to us very much as if their op
position was ill-timed. If successful,
_i. could only have the effect in some
extreme case, possibly to introduce
into the delegation from Pennsylva
nia, a malcontent, whose mutterings
would be calculated to foment diti
eard. M the ligcrcuts rlf the Nail=

The most essential planks in
the Laborliefornierai platforn3,cidcit- -
ed in their - National Convention in
Columbus on Thursday, the Pitts
burg Daily Mail says, "have'for
years been contained in the platform
of the Republican party," and - adds, -
"we fail to' see that. the Labor Re
formers are claiming one thing that
they can secure more speedily by a
separate organization than by affilia
ting with the party of the people.
The prominent movers in the Labor
Reform Convention are known and
outspoken Democrats, and all they
aim at is to get their Republic= fol
lowers to throw away their' votes on
the Labor candidates,while they vote
the straight Democratic ticket. Sen
sible men need not be told that class
political parties are just as obnoxious
as class legislation, and that the saf
est Ad surest way , to obtain re
dresa for wrongs is through' the old
political parties, made up of all,class
es and conditions." .
It is worthy , of .remark that
the free trade members of congress to
a mat, voted . against instructing the
Committee on Ways and Means to re
port a bill abolishing all duties on tea
and:coffee. They continually cry out
against taxing the labor and living
of the poor to
.sustain the rich, but
oppose every measure which tends
to cheapen the necessaries of life.
Tea and coffee are about the only
foreign luxuries which the poor of
the land indulge in to any extent,
and they should be made as cheap as
possible, as they haVe gone into such
universal use that they might be
classed as necessities. Make a note
of it; every Democratic free-trader in
Congress voted against- removing the
tax, from tea and coffee—the poor
man's drink.
* The new Illinois liquor law
appears to be creating an intense
interest among all classes. Public
meeting are being held throughout
the State by both .parties to the ques
tion, and it is expected that, when, on
the Ist of July,it comes into practical
operation, the excitement of its oppo
nents will be raised to white-heat.
The initiatory section of the law re
quiring a heavy bond to meet all pos
sible damages that_ may come of their
bussinee,is said to be a "stunner" with
large numbers. Men don't like very
well to go- on bonds which 'create
liability for all injury that other men
crazed by strong drink may do. The
friends if the law had a grand
demonstration on Washington's
birthday, to give public expression to
the general-sentiment on -the ques

involved in it.

chorus of her sisters, and declares

tain in great contests like the one e
are just entering into. Our fr*.nds

SE.ATOa SCOTT i zL A 'Washington
correspondent pa Senator Scorr of
this State, a merited compliment in
the 'following p4ragraph :
Senator Scarfit/speech in opposition to the
bill for the relief of the sufferers by the groat
tire at Chicago `was one of his best efforts. The
bill, you will remember, provided for the re
fundment elan dnties paid on articles used in
the rebuilding of the bnr.t city. Senator Scent
tiOnbted the constitutionality -of the law, anti
gave his Niews with -so much force and clear
ness. that even Senator CAIIPMCTED, one of the
best law•yers in the Senate, on ltlondny,- during
the debate on the bill, admitted that the re
mazki of Senator Scorr had caused him to
change his views on the subject. This is con
sidered quite a compliment to Mr. •corr, as
Senator Caurn:crr.n is not in the habit of ad
mitting that anybody knows mere about law
-than himself.
UNION COUNTY.—The Republicans
of Union county have elected Alfred
Hays as Representative Delegate to
the next State Convention, and Scott
Cling= Senatorial Delegate, each
with power to choose their own con
ferees. No instructions.
It was then moved that the Craw
ford county system of nominating
candidates be abolished, and that the
delegate system be restored. Adopt
ed, by 19 votes for the delegate sys
tem and 13 votes for, the Crawford
county system.
ser At the annual meeting of the
stockholders of • the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company held in Philadel
phia on Tuesday, th annual report of
the Board of Directors was present
ed, showing that the earnings of the
main line for the year. 1871, were
$18,719,836; . that the expenses
amounted to $11,823,403, leaving the
net earnings for the year at"
433. The report also states that the
amount of the revenues for the pait
year were increased $1,188,130 over

I •
"Hoe. Utrssr Menem—We have
heard. the name of Hon. Maw= MEE
ova, of Bradfor4 Comity, mentioned
in connection 'Kith the Supreme
Judgeship to be filled at the next
general election.; Judge Mractra is
well i and favorably known to the peo
ple of Pennsylvania. He was ,
presi
dential elector in 1860 ; appointe d
President Jagrii of the 13th Judicial
district, in Mardi, 1861,and re-elect
ed to fill this :position for ten years
at the generalelection the same year.
He was elected to Congress from the
13th Congressional district in 1864,
and resigned his Judgeship in March,
1865, at the time of taking his seat.
He has been re-elected to every Con
gresi since. Judge Mracua is a
man of high c:..racter, thoroughly
educated, and has had much experi
ence, both at the mar _and on the
Bench. Ho is_ One of the _most emi
nent men in the commonwealth, and
is as reliable as Ihe is able. He has
never betrayed a trust, and the peo
ple have always found in him a tree
friend. Judge Siescre is thoroughly
qualified for the position of a 'jus
tice of the Supreme Court, and he
comes from a section of the State
which ' 5- demzinds l recognition. The
Judge is a staunch republican and
has never wavered in his devotion to
the republican principles. His nom
ination would be popular with the
masses, and would be overwhelming
ly ratified at the- ballot-box. We
cordially commend Judge MEacvn,
and heartily second his nomination
for" Judgeof tlie Supreme Court, at,
the coming State Convention. " A

place • interest to me was the orange orchard of
Lftee • hundred tame trees• one thousand of which

ful. I saw a branch about one foot long that had
been cut off, upon whieb I counted fourteen large
oranges ; they were about as thick' as 'haulm.—
Around this orchard is nted a badge of wild oran
ges to break o ff th e wtn &which hang eery full of
large, Sae looking fruit- ,These orarges are larger
and deeper colored than the cultivated ones, but, are
very bitter and sour, and of no account. I should
thin% there was a shin load df them.
The old burying ground is another place of inter
est, but not so much so to us, as none of our party
could read Spanish or French. OLI Time had also
obliterated dates.
On Monday morning we returned to Tocol. thence
by steamboat to this place, , Glen -Cove Springs is
the most delightful place we have visited yet ; the
great attraction being the warm sulphur spring, fit
ted up with a swimming bath '45 by 100 feet; and
feet deep. 3ith dressing rooms attached. The tem•
paratnre of the water is 75 deg., and the spring dis
charges 3000 gal.. per minute% which pewee directly
through the batlg.keeping it pure. We tale a rept
lax swim twice a day, just as we would in the Sine
quehanna in July. The water said to be a certain
cure for all complaints. Mr. L. says he has gained
seven pounds since he left home, and we are all en
joying ourselves vastly. .
Wherever we have traveled. the country la eparre.
ly settled. and at least a hundred years behind the
north in many respect, especially is this the case
in Florida. I should judge that at least nineteen
twentieths of the country we have seen is either pine
forest or rsanip. Cattle and hogs are very poor,
because they are never fed, but have to get their own
living. They have neither butter nor milk here, ex
cept that which they bring from tee north. I tare
had no appetite for beef since looking through the
Jacksonville market. Venison, wild game, dab and
oysters, are plenty and make up for the lack of beef-
The thermometer ranges from 50 to 78 deg., but in
the evening we require a little fire.
The St. John's river is singe and beautiful stream,
having,its source in the southern part of Florida,
and flows duo north, is about 2.,0 miles in length.
and averages three miles wide for at least half its
length.

Sent - rmu. HArLn, Pa., Feb. 28:—
Last night a farmer named Daniel
Kramer, residing about nine miles
west of Auburn, Schuylkill C 0.,. on
the line of the Schnylkill and Sus
quehanna railroad, was brutally mur
dered and his wife left for dead.
.Kramer's son on entering his father's
house thie morning found his mother
on a bed with her skull fearfully frac
tured and still living, but unable to
speak His father was found about
a hundred yards from the house,
with his brains . beaten out and -fro
-zen to'the ground. No trace of the
murderers has been discovered. The
murderers robbed the house.' Mrs.
Kramer cannot recover. A . heavy
club used to commit the bloody deed
with, is in the hands of the authori
ties.
LA TIM renTicrLens
PEULADELPIILL, Feb. 26.--Mrs. Kranz
er has remained unconscious during
the day and no hopes ate entertained
for her recovery. The house was
ransacked from top to bottom, and
it is estimated that the murderers
obtained from $BOO to $l,OOO in gold
and silver and_ considerable paper
money.
The victims were each between the
ages of fifty and sixty years. Anoth
er very aged lady, who was in the
house at the time and entirely deaf,
was unmolested.
Mr. Kramer was a highly respec
table farmet, and the tragedy has
cast a deep gloom over the entire
community. No clue to the murder
ers has been obtained.
Pn - rsurno, Pa., Feb.ls.--On Saint•
day night the American iron works,
owned, by Jones&Laughlin, with the
pattern shop, pattern store-horse and
foundry, were entirely destroyed.
•
The lossis probably from $200,000
to $300,000, but it is impossible to
ascertain positively as the machiner
is covered with debris. Portion des
troyed was insured for about $lOO,-
000, distributed among some fifteen
offices, mostly of foreign comnies,
no one office losing more than $7,000.
The blast farnace,puddling depart

mill, were not damaged, - .neither was
the nail factory. The cold rolling
mill, machine and blacksmith shop,
all of which were burned, Will be re

as of co.onerstive stores, but what are known

" The building and loan asarmation is in the
nature of &mailings bank. - all the depositors in
which are stockholder*• and-entitled to a pro
rata share of the profits which their aggregated
savings earn. It Is &perfectly mutual concern,
there-being no preferred class of stockholders,
and, as usually mani ged , the officers for the
most part serving without salaries,the expenses
are exceedingly small .
"A t feature of such associations is
the vilege accorded to -members of borrow
ing money, in amounts proportioned to the
number of their shares of stock, on remarkably
favorable terms. This enables a poor 'man to
become the absolute owner of a house in from
eight to eleven/min by paying annually but a
small sum in a dd ition to the rent of it.
"A law passed by the Legislature of Pezmayl
vania in 1859preivid -a for the incorporation of
bollairet and loan associations, and prescribes
certain general ruins and limitations respecting
them. home of the details of their working are
a little complex, but the plan in the main is
very simple and entirely within the comprehen
sion of everybody. A man—or woman either—
who can savedlo a month, may take ton shares
of stock, which have a nominal or prospective
value ers2oo each By continuing monthly pay
ments of $lO during a period which varies from
eight to eleven yearn, lie can withdraw the sum
of $2,000 at the end of that time. Supposing
the association to run nine years and six
mo:l:l o Swhich about the average period'en
der management)), such a stockholder
a
act y pays but lit) return for the $'2,000
which ho obtains. lie thus realizes an average
interest of nearly eight per cent. on his money,
while five per cent. is the highest ever allowed
by savings banks,and four per rent. is the more
usual rate.
"This example shows the.paramount advant
ages of such mutual societies simply as a depos
itory• for sayings. Of course a smaller o.• larger
amount of'stock may to taken with proportion
ate results.
"Men who dosiro to- borrow moderate
amounts of money, either fur the purpose of
purchasing or building a house, or starting in
business, find quite as great an advantage from
the'posseiiiion of stock in a building and loan
association, though they may be obligedto pay
a considerable premium in addition to legal in
terest. That premium goes to swell the corn
'mon fund, and the larger the profits thus made
by the association, the sooner its' object is ac
complished and the end of its existence reach
ed, when the borrower as not only relieved from
further payMenti of any principal beyond the
amounts which-have been received from him as
monthly dues on his shares of stock.
"The stock - in these asiodations may
,be
transferred at any time, and always for more
than its cost; thus there is no possibility of loss,
provided honest or responsible officers are chos
en. The principles and workinif of this plan
cannot all be explained within the limits of a
newspaper article. Several books have been
written concerning st, and a monthly Joust:Od—
ra, Building Association Journal—devoted to
the subject, bas been published in Philadelphia
for more than a year past.
There are 'two of these associations now in
successful operation in this place.

THE NEW SENSATION.
The new sensation in the 'United
States Senate is over the sale of some
arms by our Government,which were
-afterwards Nought, by the French
Government. The Pittsburgh Dis
patch says of this:
E. W. U
We see even less in the affair now
to be investigated to be alarmed at
than in other things already dispos
ed of. The facts in the cue are per
fectly well understood, and have even
undergone governmental investiga
tion. Mr. Remington, of Ilion, New
York, a celebrated manufaCturer of
fire-arms, purchased a quantity of
arms, publicly offered for sale by our
Government, and resold there to
France. Mr. Place, the French con
sul-general at Now York, was the
agent for the French Government,
and he charged his Government a
commission on the purchase. Mr.
Remington, of course, resold what
he purchased from our Ciovernment
at an advance. Now,' because the
prices paid by tha French Govern
ment exceeded what was received by
ours, Mr. Sumner stands ready to
charge - . the Pregident with fraud.
This is, in rcality,the pith of theicase.
It is an outrage. Of course, the
French paid more for the arms than
the United States received, because
we sold to a party who resold at a
profit to the French. Senator Sum
ner is, of course, beyond the reach of
legal measures, and the friends of the
President felt the delicacy . of their
position under the insults being
heaped upon him. They could have
defeated the investiention, but this
would have been taken as evidence
of guilt, and proclaimed as such to
the entire country. Hence for a brief
time, they must submit, and allow
such men to meanly insinuate their
malicious suspicions, and have them
investigated. Of course,- - the result
will be to show the absolute innocence
of the President and the fairness of
the transaction,and egially of coarse,
some mean insinuatiorrwill be trump
ed up - 11nd ready for use at that time.
And this series of outrages must, we
presume,go on until the fifth of June,
unless Congress adjOurne. There is
a way, however, to stop it, without
injury to the President. Let the
present charges be investigated, but
!et the report be followed by a reso-.
lution declaring that the Senate, out
of respect to its dignity, will decline
to consider any other resolutions. of
investigation which are either direct
ly or indirectly aimed at the Presi
dent. Such resolutions may embody
a statement of the facts in regard to
Those already acted on, and declare
that the public business must now
take precedence of everything else.
itS. Judge lancrn.'s splendid tac
tics in removing the tax from . tea and
coffee,will make his name memorable
