MR. CCRTER REPLIES.
Editor of The TninuNi:
Sir: When the defaulting caahior is
first discovered in his acts and accused, be
culls "Liar:" 1 am thus accused Jor leav
ing ont the second statomnnt of a sen
tence containing two statements. Allow
ine to ask, "Why do not the works of the
great composers reach the masses ?" Bo
cause they are more of the head than of the
heart. Now, is Mr. Morgan more pleased r
Possibly I am mistakeu in his moaning;
Mr. Morgan now indicates that the trou
ble in in the ignoranoe of the masses, and
therefore he gives to them gospol hymns
which "reach the heart without any musi
cal study on the part of the ticger or lis
tener." I regrot Mr. Morgan has such a
poor opinion of the majority as to think
them too ignorant to be educated. I quote
from Saturday's article1 "No amount of
'education' will educate the people away
from their music." If Scran ton people
are too ignorant to be educated, then they
are the first race discovered incapable of
enlightenment. I deny it.
. Then comes the startling information
that "Marching Through Georgia" is
separated from classic music by a "gun
shot." I am frank to give Mr. Morgan the
credit for this information as no library I
ever visited contained tho information as
to the distances in music. It is said by
veterans of the late war that as the strains
of ".Marching Through Georgia" began to
resound the borses became almost unman
ageable in their excitement to niBh for
ward. Thus we have man and beast upon
the same plane in music, according to Mr.
Morgan. The Egyptians went to battle
pounding upon ail kinds of instruments,
making a noise culled by them music, that
they might bave courage. Am I to call
thai music because it assisted men to fight?
Any noise produces an exciting effect upon
the nerves. Today, knowledge is arbitra
tion, and as the nations of the earth be
omo bettor educated the Ingredients that
issisted war are more and more frowned
upon and the true music is the encourage
ment of arbitration. We no longer desire
the "so culled music" that produces the
lighting instinct. Its effect is of the darker
ages.
As to the "flavor of the peach;" provid
ing you go to tho soda fountain for peach,
cau you bnow the flavor before tasting the
liquid? Are yon then certain the dispen
ser of the soda has eivon von the nennh
flavor, and is the soda peach as welcome
as the true peach? I am too fond of the
real article to always subsist upon the ex
tract, and I regret that you, Mr. Morgan,
should for an inBtant publish your willing
ness to be satisfied with an extract.
As to my seeming impudence in asking
ior lmormauon, 1 am indebted for that to
my studies with renowned teachers, asso
ciations with most of the ereat artists.
superior musical literature and several
concert trips from Maiue to California.
Are you content? I never deal in person
alities, owing to a sympathy for the fail
ings of mankind; therefore, until some
better arguments for the musical success
of Gospel hymns are presented, I closo
with -one question to Mr. Morgan: If
Gospel hymns were no study, either to the
singer or listener, kindly state the reason
for rehearsals of the Gospel chorus?
Respectfully,

erowd present nt the afternoon session,
but it did not compare in nombors
with the immense throng that attended
the Republican convention of a week
bi-fore.
During tbe noon renss a rumor
spread rapidly to the effect that Mr.
Merrifield bud refused to be a candi
date for oongrcss. Although tbe load
ers denied it tbe rumor was widely
circulated and bad a demoralizing ef
feot on the delegates who discussed the
sitnution in an animated way.
Very few of the candidates were
seen abont the court house. The ma
jority of them knew they had no oppo
sition and kept at a safe distance from
the delegates. At 2.45 Chairman Horn
called tbe body to order again and the
report of the committee on contested
seats was called for. It recommended
the seating of the following:: Seventh
ward, Third district. M. F. Gilroyj
Spring Brook, J. W. Htiines; Carbon
d ile. North End district, Peter Mo
Dermottj Archbuld, First ward, Sec
ond district, Thomas Price; Taylor.
Fir6t ward, TbomHS Hesaon; Dunmore.
Fifth ward, Martin McAudrews aud
Edward Dnffy, one-half vote each;
Scran ton, First ward, First district,
John Lynch and Patrick Cannon, one
half vote each; Scranton, Seventh
ward. Second district, John II. Burke
and Putriuk V. Scunlon, one half vote
each. '
The committee on permanent organi
zation then presented its report. It
mimed George S. Horn for chairman,
but tbe temporary secretary, M. F.
Gilroy, came in for a slash. He did
not please the committee and Joseph
Brennan, of Carboudale, was substi
tuted for him. To break Gilroy'sfall
he whs named with W. W, Baylor for
assistant secretaries. Both reports
were adopted as rend.
QUEEB RESOLUTIONS THESE.
W. J. Bnrke rend the resolutions.
He paused for cheers after the name of
Cleveland, but he did not grow impa
tient wuiting for the tumult to subside.
Even at the conclusion of the resolu
tions the damaged roof of tbe court
house was not in danger for a moment.
There whs little enthusiasm. Here are
tbe resolutions:
The Democratic party of Lackawanna
county, in convention assembled, hereby
reaffirms its devotion to Democratic prin
ciples and heartily indorses the national
platform of 181KJ and the platform of the
recent Democratic state convention.
We congratulate tbe people of this conn
try upon the passage by the Democratic
party of a tariff measure which protects
labor without fostering trusts, which re
moves uncertainty from the business world
and opens up an era of prosperity which
will be nnparallolod in the history of the
country.
We point with pride to tbe splendid rec
ord made by the national administration
under the wise guidance of that great
statesman, Grovor Cleveland; to tho re
demption of party pledges and tho purity
of tho civil service under it, and we heart
ily ondorso the clean and able ndininistra
tion of Governor Pattisou in the old Key
stone state.
We hi'ld that purity in politics Is tbe
only hope of preserving the liberties of the
peoplo as tbey were established by the
fathers, and we denounce and execrato
tho shameless mid uotorious purchase of
delegates nt the recent Republican county
convention as a burning disgrace to the
county and the Republican party. We
call upon the voters of Lackawanna
county to rebuke tho dishonorable meth
ods that shut out from the poor and the
honest the hope of political pref'irmout
and which encourage tbe dishonest aud
unscrupulous, and lead to malfeasance in
office, scandal and corruption in high
places.
We urge upon the legislature to bo el
ected this fall to enact laws looking to the
establishment of a system of mediation
and arbitration in effecting the settlement
of disputes between employers and em
ployes to tho end that peaceful aud amica
ble arrangement may tako the place of
strike and strife upon the iudmtrial held
and that a better mutual understanding
may be established between the represent
atives of capital and labor.
Wo heartily endor.fo tho excellent ticket
nominated by tho recent Democratic state
convention and pledge our united effort to
secure Its election.
We pledge our earnest and hearty sup
port to the ticket to be nominated by this
convention today.
M'DONALD NAMED FOR SENATOR,
After the resolutions were adopted
Mr. Blewitt eullod the senatorial
convention to order and Secretary
Stokes read tbe Hat of delegates. It
was moved that the temporary organ
ization be made permanent and Mr.
Blowitt and Mr. Stokes continued at
tbe belm. E J. Keating was directed
to assist Mr. Stokes ax assistant secre
tary. Nominations for senator were
railed for by Mr. Blewitt and P. W.
Stokes arose.
He said that owing to the amount of
business to be transacted, be would
not indulge in any extended remarks.
After paying a compliment to the past
services of M, E. McDonald in the sen
ate, he placed bim in nomination.
Major Broadbead, on behalf of tbe Lu
zerne delegates, seconded the nomina
tion. Mr. McDonald was notrluated
bv acclamation aud A. J. Gavin, of
Jermyn, P. W. Stokes and T. P. Duffy;
of this city, were sent out to find the
candidate. They returned in a short
time with the report that tbey could
not find Mr. McDonald, and after the
convention, on motion of T. P. Duffy,
bad instructed tbe candidate and chair
man of the convention to name tbe
standing committee, tbe senatorial
convention adjourned.
NAMING A COUNTY TICKET,
'Chairman Horn called for nomina
tions for additional law judge as the
first business of the county oonventlon,
whereupon Colonel F. J. Fitzsimmons
arose and placed in nomination the
name or Hon.P. P. Smith. Tueeloauent
colonel contented himself by merely suy-
iuic mat iuo man wnose name ue would
present for the thoughtful considera
tion of the convention needed no ex
tended comments from bim. "He bus
been tried iu tbe position and has made
a brilliant record. His fitness and pop
ularity ure unquestioned." The nomi
nation wag made by acclamation.
When nominations for congress were
called for by Chairman Horn there was
a silence painful to even a sympathetic
outsider. - Then followed whisperings
and hasty glances around the room
which betokened that the oonvsntlon
was anxious to know where it was at.
To relieve tbe oppressive silenoe Ed
ward Frable suggested that Judge
Smith besent for. VV. J.Bnrke.F.J.Fitz
Simmons and Lawrenoe Zf idler were
appointed a oommitteefor that purpose.
Chairman Horn again reminded the
convention that he was ready to re
ceive nominations for congressman.
Another silenoe. It was broken bv
Billy Craig who rushed across the bar
enclosure very much ont of breath and
whispered to Colonel Filzslmmons.
The colonel looked at W. J. Burke and
the three consulted in whispers for a
moment "Well." said the chairman.
after a short wait, "if there are no
nominations ror congress we will pass
that business for the time being."
At this Junoture it was apparent
that something had to be done, some
thing desperate and that desperate
something soon. Billy Craig looked a t
Colonel Fitzsloimons the colonel looked
intensely at the boards beneath his feet
and the grand culmination of all this
was tbe rising of Billy Craig with a
half smile, halt scorn and the determi
nation to fill up the blank space on tbe
ticket "l nominate Edward Merri-
field for congress" was all he said. P.
J. McCormiuk, of Blakley, mored that
tbe nomination be made by acclama
tion and tbe motion was carried with
out oppositiou, only two men votlug
on the motion.
THERE WAS NO OPPOSITION,
For sneriff Attorney C. Comegys
nominated Jam s G. Bailey, He said
the latter would adorn the office aud
make an official of whom the people of
.Lackawanna might be proud. There
was no other nominee and the nomina
tion was made by acclamation.
Ldward Frable, of tbe Twelfth ward.
nominated Charles H. Schadt for
county treasurer, and he was given a
place ou tbe ticket by unanimous oou-
sent. -
John J. Durkln was placed in nomi
nation for the office of clerk of tbe
courts in a neat speech by T. J. Mo-
iigbe, or Carbondale. Like bis prede
cessors he was named by aoclaraation.
The same was true of sheriff John J.
Fabey, who was nominated for pro
thonotary by John E Roche in a
tpeooh in which he paid high tribute
to Mr. Fahey's services to the party,
and his sterling qualities as a fighter
for party success. Mr. Fahey's name
was greeted by cheers.
It wus not until John P. Kelly was
nominated for distriot attorney by
James J. O'Neill, however, that the
convention began to enthuse. Mr.
O'Neill beoanie truly eloquent as he
dwelt on the merits of Mr. Kelly. In
closing he said: "The candidate I
name for you has never been defeated;
be is honest, courageous, with a wide
knowledge of the commou and statute
law, .and if 'you nominate him you
will find him a wiuuer again."
Mr. Kelly wus given the nom
ination by unanimous . consent,
and E, J. Lvnett then arose
and renominatod James J. Healey, of
Dunmore, for recorder of deeds. He
referred to bim as a man of the people,
a great vote "getter" and a person who
wo uld be a tower of strength to the
ticket. Incidentally Mr. Lynett ex
pressed his gratification at the good
judgment the convention showed in
placing P. P. Smith and Edward Mer
rifield at the head of the ticket. There
was no opposition to the candidacy of
Mr. Healy and he, too, was accorded a
renomiuatiou by acclamation. H. T.
Koehler was unanimously renominated
fi r the office of register of will and
tiieu the struggle for the office of jury
commissioner began.
JURY COMMISSIONER.
There were hulf a dozen delegates on
their feet when tbe nominations for
jury commissioner wore called for. All
began talking at once and it was some
time before order was restored. Fin
ally the following were duly plaoed iu
nomination: W. J. Campbell, Provi
dence; Dentils J. ltnolie.Seventa ward.
Leopold Yearintr, Eleventh ward; An
thony Mellugb, West Side; George
Shoemaker, Eleventh ward; i Thomas
H-ffron, Twentieth ward; Thomas II,
Kelly, Niuoteonth ward; Joliu P. Fee-
ney, Fourth ward; John J. Mannion,
Curbondale.
A little diversion was created, before
balloting begau, by tbe appearance of
the diminutive Major Shoemaker, who
mounted tbe platform in front of the
bench and made an appeal to tbe dele
gates for support. He was interupted
frequently by oheers, hisses, cries of
"Sit down' "Shut up," "That's not
fair," eto., but nothing daunted ti e
little man said his little say.
Michael J. Gilroy, one of the secre
tnries, arose with a well-if-all-yoiv
small-fry-arfl-throngh-I'll begin air, aud
began to (alk about the "Hub of Dem
ocracy, The Keystone of Licka
wanna County," and finally came bnck
on earth with the lnformatiou that lie
was seconding the nomination of Din
nis J. Hoc lie, of the Seventh ward.
During his dissertation he took occasion
to comment on the majority which the
Seventh bad rolled up for Judge Smith.
As he was sitting down one of the del
egates in the rear of the room shonted.
"Well, tbe Seventh was rotten when
Reese Brooks ran for office." When
tbe laughter following this sally had
subsided tbe balloting was begun.
On the first ballot the vote tor jury
commissioner was as - follows: Camp
bell, 20; Rocho, 8; Yearing. 1; Mo
Hugh, 10; Kelly, 28; Feeney, 7; Shoe
makor, 8; Mannion, 07 J; Heffron, 1.
The names of Feeney, Yearing and
McHugh were withdrawn and a second
ballot was taken. The result was:
Campbell, 28; Roche, OJ; Klly, 37;
Shoemaker, 10; Mannion, 03; Huffron,
0. Bafore the ballot had been taken a
motion was passed that at its conclu
sion the four lowest candidates be
dropped. That left in the field only
Mannion and Kelly. The former re
ceived 83 votes and was d"clared tbe
nominee. Kelly received C7 votes.
MR. BURKE'S RESOLUTION.
When the balloting for jury commis
sioner was completed W. J, Burke of
fered the following resolution:
Resolved, That the rules of the Demo
cratic party of Lackawanna county relat
ing to the election of delegates to the state
convention be so amonded and the some
are hereby amended that ' hereafter dele
gates to tbe state convention shall ba el
ected by the delegates iu the several repre
sentative distriot conventious which shull
have been called for that purpose.
"How are they elected now?" aakud
Secretary W. W. Baylor.
"By tbe county committee," replied
Mr. Burke.
"Well, that way is good enough de
clared Mr. Biylor.
"The resolution is there and is sec
onded," declared Mr. Burke with dig
nity, "and if you want an argument iu
its fnvor I'm prepared to mak it."
' Vote it down I" shouted Mr. Baylor;
but on the contrary the convention
adopted it.
After a motion offered by P. J. Mo
Cjrmack, of Blukely, that tbe chair
man of tbe county convention and tbe
candidates be empowered to name tbe
county committee and fill any vacan
cies in the ticket that may occur had
bieo passed, the convention adjourned.
WHAT MR MERHIFIELD SAYS. '
Edward Merrifield was seen at his
home on Wyoming avenue last evening
by a Tribune reporter.
"I am not prepared at this moment,"
h said, "to say what I shall do about
this nomination that has been tendered
me. I told the committee that wailed
on me this morning that I would not
be a candidate, that I bad no desire to
get inixsd up in politics. In a general
disonssion which followed I remarked
that I believed it was tbe duty of a pa
triotic American to accept a nomina
tion when tendered him, if he reason
ably could do so. I pi'snme it is to
this sentiment that I a if indebted for
tbe nomination, I will have to consult
with some of those who are in charge
of the affairs of the party, however,
before I can give a definite answer con
cerning what I shall do in the prem
ises." Mr. Merrlfield says that be is a pro
tection Demoorat of the Samuel J,
Randall school. ' '-"
