OUR NOMINEES.
.ll'DOE JAMES 1. BTEHHETT.
Hon. James P. Sterrett, the Itupub
lit'tm nominee for Judge of tlie Su
preme Court, in a gentleman whose
f minent qualities both in private life
and as a public character are well
known and universally acknowledged,
Most of his professional life lias been
spent in Allegheny county, where he
bus built up an unassailable reputft'
t'on for those high qualities as a geiv
tleman and jurist which fit him in an
eminent degree for the elevated
position which he now- occupies and
to which ho was renominated yester
day. He is about fifty years or nge,
having been born in a neighboring
county of this 8tate, but lias been long
engaged in practice at the bar of his
count j. He was associated with Hon.
J. 1'. Penny for many years in legal
practice. In 1802 he was first elected
to the President Judgeship of the
Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny
county, now the Common Pleas Court
No. 1. He was re-elected to the same
position in 1872, and among the high
testimonials which have been given to
his enviable reputation as a Judge is
the fact that the Democracy then de
clined to put a candidate into the field
against him. When Judge Williams
died, last spring, Judge sterrett was
appointed by the Governor to succeed
to the vacancy thus created on the
(-Supreme Bench, and he now receives
the nomination without opposition.
His high character and great legal
abilities will insure his election by an
overwheming majority.
C'APT. w. II. HAKT.
Captain W. 15. Hart was born in
Montgomery county, Pennsylvania,
on the 15th day of March, 18-12, and
was educated at common schools. At
the age of fourteen he commenced to
earn his own livelihood by his own
seeking us a farm hand. Upon arriv
ing at the age of seventeen Le was ap
prenticed to the bricklaying business
for four years. Having served two
and one-half years when the call for
the three mouths' troops was made by
the Government in ltfi'l, he enlisted as
a private in Co. "P,'' 51st Penn'a.
Vols, for three years; served with
great gallantry in the east and south
west, participating in all the battles in
which his command was engaged.
His good qualities and soldierly bear
ing attracted the attention of General
Hartranft, who recommended him in
a highly flattering manner to Hon. E.
M. Stanton, Secretary of "War, for ap
pointment as an Assistant Adjutant
General of Vols., with the rank of
captain ; upon this recommendation
and after passing ti credit.. hie ex
amination, he was immediately ap
pointed and served with General Ilart
rauft's permanent command until the
close of tho war, being mustered out
of service as a volunteer officer under
War Department orders, dated Sep
tember 19, 1G5. In February, 1807,
Captain Hart received an appoint
ment to a clerks! dp in the Treasury
Department, was promoted to the re
sponsible position of Cashier in 1871,
(succeeding the" Hon. Thos. Nicholson,
whose confidence and friendship Cap
tain Hart enjoyed to the end of his
predecessor's life. The following ex
tract from a privato letter, wriiten in
October 1871, by Mr. Nicholson, (af
ter Captain Hart had accepted the
clerkship) will serve to illustrate the
confidence enjoyed by representative
men even at that time: "With his
pleasing manner, great qualifications,
Ktriet integrity he ought to succeed,
he must succeed." He is thoroughly
acquainted with and qualified for the
position, and in his official Intercourse
has merely confirmed a previously es
tablished reputation for courtesy and
integrity not surpassed.
HON. J. A. M. PASSMOKK.
John Andrew Morrow Pussmore,
the nominee for Auditor General, was
born in Chester, Pa., in 18o0, and is
therefore 42 years of age. He was
educated at the State Normal School
at Millerstown, being a member of
the first class that graduated from that
institution. He was admitted to prac
tice at the bar in 1800, and commenced
his legal career at Pottsville. In 1800
he was appointed General Agent for
Pennsylvania of the Metropolitan
Life Insurance Company of New
York, to the duties of which position
he has since given his principal atten
tion, although still retaining his
standing at the bar of Luzerne county.
He is well known as a man eminently
calculated to add strength to the
ticket. In the canvass for the nomina
tion he has shown what he is able to
accomplish by his own untiring exer
tions. He is a fluent talker and pos
sesses a wonderful fund of energy and
pluck as a worker. He will make an
able and active State officer.

ENDORSEMENT OP THE NATIONAL
AND THE STATE ADMINISTBAT10N8
UECIARATIONS ON VITAL TOPICS.
On the whole, the platform Is con
sidered the best adopted bv the Re
publicans of Pennsylvania in years,
and to Messrs. O'Donnell, Elliott,
Leeds, McManus, Sniytlic, Knlirht,
tind Davis, of Philadelphia, together
with lirown, of Alleghany, ami John
Cessna, is the credit due. for its con
struction and final passage in t he com
mittee. Appended is tho full text of
the paper:
jic. JicprcsrnttdivcB nf the licpuolir.an
Porta nf J'ennnitvaiiia, in Mate
Convent Inn assemtiled, do resolve'
Flint A V 1 1 1 1 c wo recognize and re
spect the difi'erences of opinion exist
ing among us as to the course pursued
by President Hayes towards the South,
we are in hearty accord in honoring
the patriotic motives which have
guided him, and in hoping that the
results of this policy will be peace,
goodwill, and the complete recogni
tion nf the equal rights of all men in
every section of t lie country, and to
the efforts of his Administration to
carry into eflect the principles of the
platlorni upon which he was elected
we pledge our hearty and cordial sup
port. Second. The Electoral Commission
having been created at the urgent
solicitation of the Democratic party,
and after the oft-repeated declarations
of its leaders in both houses of Con
gress that no faction could cavil at its
decisions, we witness with profound
astonishment the assaults of that party
upon tho august tribunal of its own
creation because its decisions disap
pointed their expectations of olliciul
patronage; which assaults, so faros
they seek to impair the confidence of
the people in the just title ot'tlie Presi
dent to his high office, are equally
childish and foolish, hut may become
extremely mischievous in assisting to
diminish the popular respect lor the
decisions of lawful tribunals.
Third. We respectfully but
earnestly entreat all members of the
National and State Legislature to as
sist the return of prosperity to thii
great country by adopting such
measures to that end as arc in their
power; to devote less attention to
partisan strife, and more attention to
the business interests of the country,
in order that wise and proper laws
tuny be passed to lessen the burdens of
labor and increase its rewards ; to en
courage, and restore to activity legiti
mate industrial enterprises, and to en
able the country to find a foreign mar
ket for its surplus products and manu
factures. Fourth. That the Republican party
in passing the homestead law iiiagu
rated ami is firmly committed to the
policy that the public lands be
long to the people, and should be
sacredly reserved to actual settlers
free of cost to whoever will occupy
them in good faith, and that all laws
permitting the acquisition of more
than one hundred und sixty acres of
such public land by any one person
should lie repealed.
Fifth. That we are opposed to the
policy hert tolore prevail uig ot renew
ing patents by act of Congress, and
we favor such a revision of the patent
laws as will hereafter prevent the re
newal of any patent.
Sixth. That the long and successful
existence, under the laws of Congress,
of the double-coin ctuudaru warrants
us in demanding an early repeal of
the legislation which demonetized
silver and established an almost ex
elusive nold standard.-and we there
fore favor a return to the free use and
unrestricted coinage of the 4pllnr of
and its restoration to the position
it held as a legal tender during the
eighty years of our national existence,
thus preserving the equality ot the
commercial value of the silver dollar
with the gold dollar, keeping both in
circulation.
Seventh. That the administration
of Governor Hartranft calls tor our
warmest approbation. He has estab
lished a State plicy which has justly
endeared him to the people of this
Commonwealth, and has amply justi
fied tho conlulence placed in him.
The steady reduction of the State debt
during his administration and the
successful refunding of a large portion
of the debt at a lower rate of interest
are the best possible evidences that
the State has been well ami ecnonii
cally maintained, and that the people
nave e ci viiiiiiir t nope num u con
tinuance .of the Republican party in
power.
Eighth. Wc are in favor of law,
and against lawlessness and auaachy
with nil their attendant horrors and
crimes. Equal rights in making laws
impose eciual duties in oheymjr inem
when made, and we tender our hearty
thanks to Governor Hartranft and the
officers anil soldiers of his command
forthe prompt, and we hope the effec
tual, suppression of the luvvlcss distur
bances wnicu recenuy oecuneu in
this State. t
Ninth. That we hold in equal re
spect the right of capital to control its
investments, and of labor to determine
the value of its service. That we de
precate any assertion by violence of
the rights of either, and we assert it as
the duty of all citizens to hold their
itr... t.i. . l:.,.l
respective rigius wnuii uic j uni. limi
tations of tho law, and that any at
tempt to coerce either by unlawful
means should be properly repressed
by such lawful authority as the ex
igency demands.
Tenth., That the Democratic, party
of Pennsylvania is afraid to express a
decided opinion on any question of
present political importance, except
its open declaration in favor of free
trade, and that it still cherishes the
delusion that expressions of political
opinions ought either to mean any
thing or nothing, as may best tend to
secure the restoration of that party to
the control of the offices and the trcas
ury of the Commonwealth. e are
confident that the intelligent citizens
of this great State will continue to en
trust the conduct of its affairs to the
party which has been zealous in the
maintenance of its credit, vigilant in
defence of its honor, prompt in the
enforcement of its law's, and whose
past administration of its government
has been honest and competent, and
fearlessly faithful to the best interests
of all men of whatever class, race, or
condition within her border.
Eleventh. That we renew our oft
repeated declarations in favor of
adequate protection to American in
dustry, and now that manufacturers
are languishing and workiugmen are
out of employment, the common in
terest demands a still closer adherence
to the protective policy which the Re
publicans of Pennsylvania have al
ways sustained. ' The country has
never yet prospered under free trade,
s it never can or will, aul, as all
tariffs are levied primarily for
revenue, it would be a bad govern-
mcnt which is not Just enough to lis
people to arrange its revenue imports
so as to encourago and build up the
growth of home manufacture.
Twelfth. That we favor such legis
lation in Stale affairs as will first
substitute adequate salaries for fees ;
second, securo our municipalities
from the dangers that, attend the ex
isting facilities for contracting debt,
and third, provide adequate guards
against a recurrence of the frequent
and large losses to which the people
who do business with banks and bank
ing institutions have heretofore been
subject.
