1'EUMiNKNT OUUANIZATIOK.
All the delegates having responded
to roll cull, Chairman Powell an
nounced that it was in order to prooeed
to peiminent organization. This was
done by electing R. G. Brooks perma
nent chairman and the tsmpnrary sec
retaries, J. W. Browning, D. W. D.i-
vis and ii.mil llonu, as permsnu
sucretnries Mr. Brooks was nominated
by B A. Z.iuuiormsn. Us had no op
position, and the overwhelming vive
voce vote by which ho was elested be
tokened that the Fellows forces bad
virtually given up the fight. The
election of the seuretariss was unani
mous.
Mr. Brooks was greeted with cheers
as he was escorted to the chair and in
troduced by Cnnirman Powell. He
made a short, folicitous speeuh of
thanks, and remarked that he was
placed in an awkward position, as he
mid prepared a uominiiiing speecu unu
intended to nominate Buuiebody lie
didn't cure who. By placing him in
th'j chair the convention hHd deprived
itself of the pleasure of hearini; tho
speech. He concluded by requesting
the epeeobuiukers to be unei ana tome
point, ns tin-re was considerable busi
ness to be transacted.
THE RESOLUTIONS.
Mr. Zlmmermin. chairtnun of tho
committee on resolutions, then read
that committee's report He wis fre
quently interrupted with applause and
at the conclusion a rousing el'eer was
given. Following are the resolutions
iu full:
First We affirm our d. votiou to the
doctrine of a protective tariff as the car
dinal principle of Republicanism. I!y a
protective tariff we mean a svstem that
protects every product of American labor
and admits ireeoi uuty into tins country
such articles only as we cannot oursolves
produce, always exepting articles, purely
of luxury.
Seooud We advocate the national nnac
chil policy that will give to each of the
money metals its proper and legitimate
place as a circulating medium, and impart
to every dollar that bears the stamps of
the government, gold, silver and pnpor,
exactly the same purchasing power, inter-
clianeeanle at the will or the holder, and
receivable by the government for all pur
noses.
rnmi we nennnnro ana condemn tne
lately enacted tariff and revenue bill be
cause It is sectional In its provisions, nn
Just and dii-crimitintiug iu its purpose, op
preasive in its operations, disastrous to
many branches of indiihtry and beueflcial
only to trusts and monopolies.
Fourth We condemn and execrate the
infamous pension policy inaugurated by
Iloke Smith, indorsed by. the Cleveland
administration and defended by the Dem
ocratic press nud party loaders. That
policy suspends and reduces the pensions
of .honest mid deserving enlitiers without
giving them tho opportunity of defense
except by incurring the expense of appeal
to the courts.
Fifth We hold the Democrats nartv
now in full power in the national govern
ment reepoimiblo for the prostration of
the business interests of the country dur
um the past year and a half: for tho dis
tress and sufferings and privations of the
working classes; for the reduction in the
wnges.of labor; forthoshrinkaceof values,
for the locses to invested capital, and for
the Incapacity tnat necessitated tne Issu
ing of bquds and consequent increase of in
torest-bearing debt of the nation.
Sixth s We advocato and demand at the
bands of the next legislature the ennct
nient of a law providing for a wise system
of permanent public road improvement
under state supervision and at the expenre
of the commonwealth. Also the enact
mnnt of a law creating a state board of
arbitrators, whose duty it shall be to arbi
trate differences arising between corpora
tions and their employes.
Seventh Ouce more wo congratulate
the citizens and taxpayers of Lackawanna
comity on the able, clean and economical
administration of their affairs in the sev
eral departments of the county govern
ment under Republican ofliuials, and
pledge those this day nominated to a con
tinuance of the hiph standard maintained
in the past ill excellence of administration
of public trusts.
Eighth We heartily indorse the mag
nificent state ticket given to the party by
tne late ltepnoncan state convention, an
prove of the platform on which that
ticket stands and pledge oursolves to d )
all that lies in our power to give each of
the candidates an unprecedented majority
in Liucxawanna county.
We indorse the record made bv Hon.
Joseph A. Scranton as our representative
imcongress, ana nereDy recognize tne effi
cient service be rendered his immediate
constituents, the state and the nation, by
Dis uniunering nneiity to tne prluciples of
tne nepuoncan parry.
On motion of John M. Harris the
resolutions were formally approved as
read,
, . BCRANTON NOMINATED.
Chairman Brooks, having called for
nominations for congressman, Horses
E. Hand arose irom bis ssat oa th
benoh and placed in nomination the
name of Hon. Joseph A. Sorsnton, In
doing so Mr. Hand ssidt " - -I
present to yon today the name of
man who has been tried in the balance
and not found wanting: a man who at the
bead of our ticket will lead it on to
snlendid victory. We are approaching a
crisis in the history of the Republican
party. In a business crisis it would be
foolish to set aside a triod and faithful
employe. Why 'should not the same rule
apply in collticsf . This congressional dis
trict with its diversified industries is second
to none in the country, and should have
representation . corresponding to Its lm
portance. One of the requisites of success
in congress is familiarity with tne details
of legislation which can only be secured
by experience on the.fhorof tho house.
The man whose name I present fo your
consideration has had a remarkable
career, and although handicsnned bv the
fact that be was only returned every other
term has done wonderful service for his
constituents.
Mr. Hand then went over in detail
the servicss Mr. Scranton rendered the
people of this district during bis oon
gressional career. Tho nomination was
seconded by A, B. Eynon, ot the West
ide. JohnT. Watkinsm ids the speech

do we claim tor him any ot the attributes

aristocracy, but of tho common peoplo.

wind and storm, fulhlhug his word.
Gentlemen, your mission will not have
been fulfilled until you, by the unanimous
consent auti vte, place at the head of
your ticket as the standard bearer of the
glorious principles nf Lincoln, Uarflold,
and the immortal James U-. Blaine, the
name of John I'. Fellows.
RECORDING THE BALLOTS.
The balloting bga'i nnd was carried
on amidst a profound silence, which
was remarkable whtm the sizi of the
gathering is taken into consideration,
but not so when the intonse anxiety
which hinged on the result is consid
ered. There was no demonstration

convention bad already done. Th

Akerly. 18 ,
JOHN R, JONKS FOR DISTRICT ATTORNEY
One of tho eloquent and forcible
nominating speecnes ot the- any was
that of John M. Harris, in which he
plated in nomination for district at
torney John R. Jones. Mr. Harris in
the coarse of his remarks said :
The office of district attorney of Lacka
wanna county demands a lawyer of tried
professional expurience and of admitted
profeaslnnal ability. In no calling of li.'
are the demands' of a sound and liberal
education of more importance
n rigm Biari man in tne nro
fessiou of law. Mr. Jones . began bis
professional career fifteen years (tiro I
the office of Alexander Farnham iu the
city of Wllkes-liarre, and later on. In Oc
tober, 1880, he entered the law office of
Hon. R. W. Archhald, president judge o
Lackawanna county. During his fifteen
years' experience before the courts ot this
county, he has been engaged in some ot
the most important and difficult cases
erer tried bolore the bar, and. In eaoh oaBe
he distinguished himself as an accurate,
painstaking, diligent lawyer, and brilliant
adVocate;
I stand hern to respeayfally ask this
convention to naino John R. Jones as its
candidate for district attornoy, because
he is tho peoplo s choice. 1 beg of you to
nunie him and he will be the next district
attornoy ot Lackawanna county, no mat
ter whom the Democracy nave nomi
nated. Nominate hi in because more
than niy ' other he will strengthen
the entire ticket. He will bring
strength to the ticket from every section
of tho county. Ho wilt reuder a good ac
count of himself In the strongholds of the
Democracy In Aichbald, iu Olyphunt, in
Dick'on City. And I venture, to predict
that Lackawanna nnd Old Forge town
ships, and tho borough of Taylor, repre
senting 1,500 Republican voters, will stand
by him to a muu.
O. V. Sitgreaves secondod Jones'
nomination. Alderman Falter nom
inated Gorge M. Watson. In placing
Mr. Watson's name bufore the conven
tion be said, in substance: "As none
but a lawyer osn fill the office of dis
trict attorney nud as one who is not
duly qiuliri ul can not be admitted to
the Lackawanna county bar, it
i niineccssary to dwell npon the
nalifieations of the gentleman
w mil) l am ahout to nominate.
Mr Watson wus iu early life a carp-niter
and assisted in the building nf
this tempi" of justice. Whilt
e hud no efllnsnee, iufl lence or power
be bhd ambition and having been en
couraged to follow the legal profession
bo took it up, passed an honorable ex-
tuinatiou and niter being admitted to
the bar made an honorable record for
himself as a lawyer. He is an honest,
large-hearted, broud-guagid man. If
chosen be will not disappoint the
conrt, the bar or the pe pie."
W. Qaylord Thomas nominated A. J.
Colborn nnd in so doing made a very
appropriate nnd eloquent speech. He
aid stress npan the zal with which
Mr. Coll'orn had served the Republican
party, how he had devoted his time nnd
talents to tin cause of Republicanism
and tho justice of rewarding this de
votion. In concluding at. Thomas
suid: "It the mantle of Jack Colborn's
eloquence was for five minutes placed
upon my shoulders yon would raudwr
verdict in his favor, without the leant
doubt." The vote for the office resulted
as follows: Jones, 03; Watson, 74;

of Scranton than any physician at present
in the city. Tho reason for this is not
hard to seek. The Doctor is all that he
claims to be, and couples with his remark
able medical and surgical attainments all
the energy and push of the successful
business man. The results of this are seen
iu his larite and handsome new ollieos iu
tho old Postnfilce building, corner Penn
avonue aud Horace etroot, where betweeu
office, receptiou rooms, laboratory, etc.,
ne occupies noornge amouutiug to ovor
,000 squaio feet.
The appointments iu the new establish
ment are complete in every detail, nnd
will fully meet the requirements of a prac
tice which had fur ontirrowu the limited
space iu the eld offices.
The $40,000 School Houss
for Colnmbiu avenue has been let and will
be commenced immediately. There are
still a few lots left at a low price.
