Archbald by yesterday's convention can be epoken of in no more appropri ate manner than as a partial reward of merit. During a term of signal test he has discharged the important duties of his ofllee with fairness, candor and with undisputed ability. The growth of Lackawanna county as a center of litigation has been phenomenal. In point both of numbers and Intricacy the cases tried at the court over which Judge Archbald presides are among the most exacting on record in the state. That he has, through all these varied trials, managed not simply to vindicate his clear knowledge of the law, but also to retain, in undiminished degree, the confidence of the entire bar, and the increased respect of fellow Jurists lurouguoiii uie commonweaitn is a tribute to his ability and to his fairness which outweigh any other words of spoken eulogy. Judge Archbald has won an unanimous reuomination by deserving it; if the Democrats are wise they will accord to him the compli ment of an unanimous re-election. The nominee for sheriff, Frank H, Clemons, is one of Scrauton's stalwart young business men whose career Is typical of the careers that have made Kcrauton. In commercial circles his word is as good as his bond; in the po sition of trust which he has filled in municipal legislation his part has been an honorable one, and discharged with keen ability; and as a Republican be has been, for years, a loyal and willing private lu the ranks who comes to the position of leadership in county poli tics by a natural and honorable ad vancement. The convention made no mistake when it selected as its nomi nee for the difficult duties of the shriev alty one who, in every position that he has yet filled, has measured up to its complete requirements and hadahility to spare. In the nomination of Thomas D. JJavies for treasurer the convention honored a life-long resident of Hyde Park whose integrity Is beyond re proach, and whose fitness for the re sponsible trust to which he has been nominated cannot be questioned. The renominatlon of John H. Thomas for clerk of the courts and of Clarence E. Pryor for prothonotary will be popular because it has been thoroughly de served, while in the convention's se lection of John Jt. Jones, esq., for dls trict attorney a brilliant attorney was asked to step up higher. To speak at length lu commendation of Mr. Jones would be clearly superfluous. Ills own aggressive and spontaneous indorse ment by the masses is the best guar auty of his popularity and of his tri umphant election. The remainder of the ticket is well apportioned geographically and com prises earnest Republicans who have the entire confidence of their party, The convention, as a whole, betokened the reawakening of party enthusiasm which has been noted In all other por tlonsofthe country wherever repre sentative Republicans have assembled, That there will be an aftermath of bit terness or factional sullenness hurtful alike to the party and to those who make it possible we will not believe. It would belie the loyalty of the mem hers of yesterday's convention, Insult the masses of the party whom they represented and offend every instinct of good partisanship and good citizen ship. ' In a week the loyal Republicanism of industrial Lackawanna will have adjusted Itself to the conditions of con vention victory or defeat, and will be moving In tranquil earnestness toward the goal of glorious victory in November. Democracy's desperation in Lack awanna is clearly evidenced in its frantic eagerness for a Republican bolt. Republicans will scarcely play Into the political enemy's hands. The Nominee for Congress. In selecting as their candidate for congress the aspirant named by yester day's convention the Republicans of Lackawanna county have issued their command; and loyal fellow-partisans have no option but to obey. In this moment of national political crisis. with a political panic on one side aud a free trade threat on the other, it ill becomes genuine protectionists to hag gle over personalities. Industrial Lackawanna needs the strongest rep resentation at Washington that it can get. It dare take no chances on any mugwump, Democrat or Populist. Ve have had some differences with Mr. Scranton lu the past; aud we dare say we shall have some more in the years to come. There has, however, been in these columns no question either of his ability or his experience. As a Protectionist he combines knowl edge of the principles of Republicanism with knowledge of their practical ex emplification in laws. He will not bow the knee to Populism. He will not dodge, twist or squirm away from the duty of standing up for his district and its Interests. And as a candidate for congress he will he elected, because the people of this district have had enough, let us hope for all time, of Democracy, free trade and trampism in disguise, a signh'cant feature of the con vention was the large aud intellicent representation of alert young Repub licuus. The vigorous new blood in the party is a hopeful augury of its future. The League Convention. It is under auspicious circumstances that the Republican League of Penn sylvania assembles today at Harrls- burg in' its seventh annual convention. Three years ago, when that league convened in this city, there was wit nessed a contest for the executive or ganization such has seldom been seeu iu the placid politics of Pennsylvania, Today, with its lines everywhere strengthened aud with its legitimate aims kept clearly in mind, the league roll will disclose the existence of not so much as one mushroom club; and without any unseemly scramble will proceed to its appointed work with euthusiam and eagerness, confi dent in its mission, secure in its prin ciples and fortunate in its leadership, A mistake is commonly made when it Is supposed that the league has any proper business In the makiug or un making of slates; or in the Influencing of nomiuating conventions, municipal, county or state. While it is not the purpose of the league to curb or limit the right of its membership to indi vidual preferences, it certainly is not its place to deliver over the league ma chinery to the uses of Individual can didates for ofllee. The league is only strong when It rests upon its whole some basis as an auxiliary in the or ganization of Republican voters and in the propagation of sound political prin ciples. The duty of the league begins where the duty of the nominating convention leaves off; its work is Im personal; and its reward should be the confidence of all Republicans in the In tegrity of its Intentions. The convention at Harrisburg today will be notable not less in the quality of its vigilant membership than in the large number of alert young men from all parts of the state who, without the stimulus of a sharp contest or the ex pectation of extraordinary features, have nevertheless been attracted to the capital of the commonwealth out of sheer loyalty and generous party Interest Such a magnificent outpour ing of Republicanism's young defend ers will fittingly inaugurate the gub ernatorial and congressional canvass. and pave the way for a victory In No vember comparable with the peerless triumph of that distinguished rejuve' nated veteran Galusha A. Grow. It will be time to talk of the fine points in the political game when the Hcranton delegation gets back from Harrisburg. Too much politics In a bunch might leave a dearth of future themes. The slate-making industry will- now be connnea to tue party of per luiy ana dishonor. The Jack of Clubs. Impetuous and dashing "Jack" Rob inson will today retire from the presi dency of the State league leaving be hind him a record of earnest party service which few men have equalled, The "Jack of Clubs" may be a hard and bitter lighter at times, but he is always a true blue Republican, ready to give words, time and money to the work of party organization and popu lar education in political principles, That the younger element of the party's membership in this state should rally around him with something of the warm loyalty which the veterans of the late war evinced for dashing Phil Sheridan Is a natural result of his fearless and intrepid leadership and his strong command over the af fections of his associates. In presenting as their candidate for his successor, Major Everett Warren of this city, the young Republicans of Northeastern Pennsylvania believe they have chosen a representative who will fully match the splendid qualifica tions of President Robinson. They are confident that Major Warren will bring to the service of the league a steadiness of purpose and a command of execu tlve abilities which will make the trans fer of authority an event In the league annals that will fulfill all reasonable expectations, and insure the steady continuation of the remarkable recent growth of the league as a valuable aux illery to the Republican organization throughout the commonwealth. Ward McAllister relieves a pain ful publlo tenison by announcing, in due time, that "without having read a line about the disagreementof Mr. aud Mrs. W. K. Vanderbflt" he "doesn't beliove a word of it." Ward's faith is truly touching, aud should win him a handsome douceur. , There is nothing courageous about voluntary surrender. A Music Festival. The grand music festival which will begin at Laurel Hill park tomorrow may be considered among the most important of the numerous musical events of the hour. The enterprise which brings to our city iu direct and friendly competition such a large num ber of picked vocalists aud Instru mental performers from the surround ing country, must have Its weight in furthering the interests of music in this city, which is already known to fame as the home of excellent chorus organizations. The musical spirit which is not satisfied to rest upon the glory of past achievements, but rather urges the victors to greater efforts and new undertakings is the one that is of real benefit to musio in a community. The friendly rivalry of the eisteddfod docs much toward promoting general excellence and stimulates the contest ant to continued effort for Improve ment. The parties iu charge of the arrange ments of the festival at Laurel Hill are well known In musical ventures in this vicinity, and possess experience and ability that guarantee that the sessions will be of interest to all philharmonic people. Iu the arrangement of the various details considerable expense has been Incurred lu order that nothing might be neglected that would add to the eDjoymeut and comfort of patrons, There is no doubt that this enterprise will be substantially recogulzed by large audiences at each of tiro various sessious. CONVENTION ECHOES. Clerk of the Courts John H. Thomas was too ill to attend tne convention ana therefore had to abandon the idea of mak ing a canvass or taking charge of his forces yesterday. The large vote he received roved tne men regard ce is neia in v the members of the nartv for his dis tinguished service for it in the past and for tbe splendid manner in which he has conducted his office. It was his third nomination for the office of clerk of the courts received from a Republican conven tion. Mauv prominent Democrats of the city occupied seats in the space reserved for delegates and kept them even after Chair man urooks had ninae repeatea requests that those who were not delegates, but occupied seats within the bar inclosure. should vacate that tbe standing delegates m eht be provided with seats. JN early one-half of tbe delegates bad to stand up during the afternoon session. Some of the well-known Demoorats who were present at Yesterday s convention were Postmaster F. M. Vandling, James J. U'Kellk f . J. Fltzslmmons, William Craig, John Dnrkln, Morgan bweeney. Martin ilynn, ri. J. ward, ueorae uris- wold, John Gibbons, D. W. Vaugban, W. J. Burke, Charles DuPont Brock, John F. Scragg and u. comegys. John T. Watkins' effort in nominating John tl. 1- ellows was one or tne most oru ate speeches ever heard in a convention in this county, una speaker ireuuentiy leu into a poeiic vein in recounting the merits or the candidate ne presented ior tne con sideration of the convention. Henry Mohr. of the Second district of the Nineteenth ward; was one of the larg ent men in the convention. He was a Fel lows shouter, and tbe lapel of his Prince Albert coat was ornamented by a red Fol lows badge and an equally red bunch of geraniums. www John R. Jones, who, through the cour tesy of an Archbald delegate, had tbe privilege of seconding the nomination of Judge Archbald, performed tue same duty when Judge Archbald was first nom inated for the judgeship ten years ago, Horace E. Hand proved himself a force ful and convincing speaker by bis brief but pointed' remarks in placing J. A. Scranton in nomination. He placed his favorite in a splendid light before the con vention. W. Gaylord Thomas made a brilliant ef fort to sway tbe convention for A. J. Col born, jr., but the delegates could not be induaea to withdraw their support from tne magnetic Joun k. Jones. w All during the afternoon every seat in the spacious court room was occupied and hundreds bad to stand. Tbe passages leading to tne court room were crowded with spectators. During tbe morning session of the con vention Sheriff Fahey and I. H. Burns in dulged in an animated discussion in the rear of the court room on battles of the past, i Attorney John F. Reynolds, of Carbon- dale, made one of tbe neatest speeches heard in tbe convention in nominating joun u. i nomas ior cierK or tne courts. John R. Jones' band discoursed musio in front of his headquarters yesterday morn ing up to the time that tbe convention was called to order. a Those who attended the convention ex pecting To see a brilliant display of par liamentary pyrotechnics were grieviously disappointed. Tbere was an abundance of enthusiasm for Fellows in the convention room, but it was not DBCuea up oy votes. t The fine showing made by Ueorge M, Watson proved that he has many warm friends in tue county. ' D. W. Powell and Reese Q. Brooks made splendid presiding officers. WHY TRUST 'EM AGAIN? Hon. TV. D. Owen, al fern, Ind.

They said that wages would decline; tney were advanced over the entire country. Tbey said that the price of goods would go up; the report of the senate and the investigating commit tee, signed by Democrats aud Republicans alike, declared that the prices of the necessaries of life went down. They said it would cIobs the ports of foreign markets to onr goods: tne year alter tne aic&iniey bill was passed we shipped abroad viffi. 000,000 more of goods than ever before In t ha nation's hiBtorv.

Erery prophecy lof tvll was overthrown and every promise of pros perity and advancement was realized. WHY CANADA IS CAY. Waihtngton Letter in Philadelphia Press. Hiy is produced iu Pennsylvania to a very Urge extent Democrats nave re duced the tariff on bay from H io s a too. The cost of production in Canada is about 44 per cent. lower than in the United States, owing to the lower rice or laoor, tne lower value or land ana tue consequent less taxation. Notwithstanding the fact that under the McKinley act the tariff on hay was U a ton, the last fiscal year 104, 181 tons were imported from Canada. The year prior to the passage of the McKlnlev act the Imports were 124,544 tons. It is evident that under the reduction of the duty one-half tne imports of hay from Canada will enor mously lucreass. The duty on hay is 20 per cent. The value of the bay crop in' the United States is t5T0.872.873. And ydtthis vast industry gets a protection of only 20 per cent., while the insignificant southern rice industry, which gives employment to only a few thousand men, is protected by 84 per cent. duty. It in no wonder under the circumstances, that the Canadian newspapers are speaking in an entbusias lio manner of the action of the Democrats in regard to the new tariff.
