Senator Quay hus been claiming throe
delegates In ltlttlr and the Uevetoi
tnents of the past few day show that
he has only ope. He has been claiming-
Ave In Westmoreland, whereas re
cent facts show that he has only three.
A similar shrinkage of his other clulms
will leave him hopelessly stranded.
This time, bluffing didn't win.
The Situation.
Cn the f 'f o the state convention,
with all the dtlesates elected. tSith
factions are claiming a majority, and
the leaders of both are expressing con
fidence that they will easily control the
convention. Somebody Is either great
ly deceived or making pretensions to
strength that are only Imaginary. Vp to
this time the champions of the state
administration faction have wisely
given the Quay boomers a monopoly
of the bluster, boasting and threaten
ing of the campaign. The Hastings
people have claimed nothing except
what they had fought for and won.
They have resorted to no revolutionary
methods when they have been beaten
in fair battle. What they won they
claim, and If all the delegates who were
elected in the Interest of the adminis
tration remain true to their pledges
the Hastings faction will control the
convention by a majority of not less
than twenty-one. Senator Quay claims
that he will have control of the con
vention by an overwhelming majority.
If that claim Is realised he will have
to secure the support of a large num
ber of delegates who were elected as
anti-Quay men. A victory achieved
in that way would be far more destruc
tive of his future political hopes than
a defeat In the convention. If all the
delegates who were elected In the In
terest of the Hastings administration
act in good faith, they will number 133
and constitute a majority of twenty
one in the convention. These figures
cannot be controverted. This concedes
to Senator Quay every delegate elected
for him, together with those elected
before the (actional fight came on and
who have not declared their adherence
to Governor Hastings. It follows that
in order to win Senator Quay must cap
ture not less than eleven of Hastings'
delegates, or oust them and put Quay
men In their places.
The senator has left no doubt In the
mind of any one during the past two
weeks that he has become both des
perate and reckless. If this despera
tion and recklessness affected only him
self and Colonel Ollkeson It might be
tolerated with a greater degree of
patience, but it strikes at the very life
of the Republican party. He has
caused contests to be commenced
against fairly and honorably elected
delegates for no other reason than that
they refused to pledge themselves' to
htm. He has, without authority and
In violation of the rules and precedents
of the party, convened the state com
mittee to support him In his almost
openly avowed purpose to carry out a
scheme of trickery and fraud by which
he hopes to secure control of the con
yentlcnr. Never before in the hintory of
the Republican party has there been
wltnesned In this state such a reckless
disregard of propriety and decency,
nor such utter contnmpt for the wel
fare of the Kepublloan party.
Republicans who love their party and
desire to see it dominant In the state
and nation contemplate with deep con
cern the outcome of the convention at
Harrlsburg on Wednesday. The con
tests of the past month In a large num
ber of counties have left demoralisation
in their wake. No Republican state
convention in Pennsylvania has ever
before met under circumstances quite
so deplorable. Never before has the Ke
publloan party In Pennsylvania been
' quite so fiercely rent by factious war
fare, and never has it stood so near the
brink of a threatened Internal revolu
tion. For this condition of things Ben
ator Quay Is alone to blame. He In
sisted on war when there was no cause
for war. The state administration had
given Senator Quay no cause for re
sentment His status In state and na
tional politics had received all due rec
ognition from Governor Hastings. The
latter declined, at the demand of the
senator, to virtually abdicate the office
to which he had been elected by the
people and permit Senator Quay to
have his own Way In everything. The
pebr-lo will respect the governor all the
: more for the resolute manhood he has
mantlesled. The battle Is between Sen
ator Quay and the old political ma
chine on the one hand and the Re
publican masses on the other. The people-have
won In the battle for the dele
gates and It remains now to be seen
whether they will be cheated out of the
tVults of their victory In the conven
tion. . ."
Fivo jeaw ago a state convention
wiot at Harrlsburg to nominate candi
dates for governor and other state o fil
ters. Itat convention, when It assem
bled, contained a majority of delegates
who favored the nomination of General
L'astlnvs. By what nefarious meth
ods it was changed to Delamater
con vera t'en Is well known to many who
were at Harrlsburg on that occasion.
The convention that assembles at the
state capital on Wednesday Is aUo tor
Hasting'); it remains to be seen if It ran
be manipulated as was the convention
Ave years ago. The same methods as
well as new ones will be applied by
Senator Quay and his lieutenants, but
the same success may not follow. The
Republican masses are not with Sena
tor Quay any more now than they were
when he forced Delamater upon them
through a subservient convention; and
we don't believe he can a second time
succeed In slapping them in the face.
The cock-and-bull story of Delegate
Sarver, of Westmoreland, about some
unnamed IVmocrat offering him $700
and a railway ticket to transfer his cre
dentials to a man who would vote for
Ollkeson carries Its own refutation
along with It. Unnamed ivmocrats
are not mixing Into this fight.
The Tactics of Thievery.
The argument used by Senator Quay
to Justify his revolutionary proceed
ing In declining to sanction the pre
paration ot the convention mil call
by the chairman of the Republican
state' committee, as has been the un
broken custom In this state since the
founding of the party. Is that the pres
ent chairman Is a candidate for re
election, and cannot therefore fairly
enter the names of delegates whose
claims to admission are contested. "It
Is monstrous, "he says, "that llr. Ollke
son should seek to sit as Judge and Jury
In the adjudication of his own case."
Therefore. Senator Quay announces
his Intention of constituting himself
the Judge and of packing the Jury
with nen who ore under his thumb.
Is this any Improvement upon tho
Ollkeson example, assuming that Mr.
Ollkeson would act unfairly T
Hut the truth Is that a state chair
man has no option In the enrolment
of delegates. He must put on the list.
In contested cases, the names of those
who have regular credentials; and tho
regularity of credentials Is established
by the signatures upon them, leaving
to the chairman no chance to attempt
any Jugglery. His office. In short, la
clerical so far as the preparation of
the roll Is concerned; and In proof that
he la not disposed to go beyond his
clearly defined duties in the premises.
Chairman Ollkeson today publishes
the list of the 2S delegates who have
prima facie titles to seats In Wednes
day's convention. Is there anything
unfair about that?
Why. then, all this fuss about an
extra meeting of the state committee,
and thlsdalk of rival conventions? We
have before us a dispatch from Harrls
burg to the New York Herald, evi
dently written after consultation with
the Quay managers. It says, very un
fortunately for the Quay leaders, who
have hitherto succeeded in keeping
their real purpose In the background:
"There Is a possibility of eighteen
seats being contested three In the
Fourth district of Schuylkill, one in
Elk county, three In Bradford county,
where the procedure was Irregular;
three In Northumberland county, five
In Philadelphia. First and Fifth dis
tricts, the seats held by Robertson and
Philip Fllnn, of Allegheny county, and
one In Wyoming county, where new
primaries were held. Much depends
on the decisions in these cases, as the
eighteen contested seats would more
than wipe out Chris' IMagee's latest
estimate of the 'combine's majority
should the 'combine' men be unseated."
The meaning of this Is clear. Con
tests are to be trumped up In North
umberland, whose delegates, after be
ing classed as possible Quay men, have
at last flatly decided to support Hast
ings and Gllkeson; in Bradford, where
ex-Lieutenant Governor Davles' re
fusal to receive Insolent orders from
Senator Quay has Incensed the sena
tor's desperate following; and In two
districts In Allegheny, not to mention
the Wyoming outrage. Here we have
a total change of eighteen votes,
which, added to the spurious contests
in Philadelphia, would give Quay a
fraudulent gain over VJIlkeson equal to
twenty-eight votes. That is. It would
swing fourteen votes from Gllkeson to
Quay, and probably decide the con
test. 'Under such a programme, no
delegation would be safe. l-arkawsn-na
county, having Incurred Quay's dis
pleasure, might be as easily unseated
as Northumberland; and Luxerne, as
easily as Bradford. There are" no
limits to such a highwayman's game
as that.
But this thing will r.ot come to pass,
for the simple reason that there aro
other men than (Senator Quay In tho
Republican party In Pennsylvania
men who can be neither bullied, cheat
ed nor bought. A safe majority of
such men will, on Wednesday next, re.
elect Judge Gllkeson state chairman
end put an end to Mr. Quay's at
tempted proprietorship of the com
monwealth. Just Jot that down.
.
If Senator Quay fancies that his bo
gus cries of fraud can blind the Hast
Ings managers to his own desperato
attempts to purchase a victory, he Is
mightily mistaken. - They have wit
nessed his tricks before.
The Future of Home Rule.
In a letter to the New York Trlbune
Justin McCarthy takes a philosophical
yet withal hopeful view of the future
of home rule. Even though there
should not soon be a Liberal restora
tion, the leader of the Nationalists Is
not prepared to predict that the Tories
may not themselves accept the Inevit
able with reference to Ireland Just as,
under Disraeli's prescient leadership,
they accepted It In the matter of Glad
stone's Reform bill of 1886. But white
It Is within bounds of possibility that
a fairly satisfactory adjustment of
the home, rule , question may yet be
made during a Conservative adminis
tration, Mr. McCarthy Is too experi
enced a politician and too firm a be
liever In the Justice of his country's
demands to trust blindly to Tory In
itatlve. He aptly says:
' Let the Tories remain Tories aa long as
they will: they cannot prevent the polit
ical world from moving. And even Tories
feel the movement. Hut of course the
great solid strength of Ireland Is In her
self and her own cause) la 4he teachings
of history; In the lessons of experience
There la not, so far as I know, any people
in the world who are so nearly unanimous
on any political question whatever as the
Irian people are on the sttbjeot of home
rale. In England we have many distract
ing questions of controversy which are
constantly crossing and entangling each
other and dividing the pabHe attention In
in moat perplexea and uoaxpvcieu i amn
ion. The Croat collapse of the Llbaral
party in England at tha lata elections was
due to all manner of conflicting Influences
the local veto bill dnurslns here, the In
dependent Labor party pulling there, the
Liberal financial system making enemies
In one direction, the tiome rule question
making enemies In another. But In Ire
land the whole battle was fought on the
Question of for and atratnat home rule.
Tha land question la to Irishmen asubjeot
of the hlgheat Importance, coming certain
ly next to home rule. But the Irish public
now feel well convinced that any govern
ment coming In, Tory or Liberal, will
have to deal with the settlement of thta
Irian land tenure system. Therefore the
ItKht was for or against home rule. See
what haipenel in Ireland, la 8cotland
and In Wales thlnga went not so well as
might have been expected with the Lib
eral party. In Knglund herself the over
throw of the liberals was someining ui
astrnua. Itut In Ireland home rule kept
all Its former pkices, and captured two
seats from tha V Inter Tories. My con
tention Is thut when we thus huve the
vast majority of one people or one nationality-all
set in. favor of a certain principle
of government, that principle Is sure to
l established In th end. The English
Liberal party are our sincere and untir
ing friends, but we tip not rest our hopes
merely on the friendship of any Kiib'llsh
part v. We rest them on the Justice of our
cause ami the unalterable tenacity of our
purpose.
air. McCarthy frankly admits and as
frankly deplores the great hindrance
wihlch that cause has experienced by
reasons of Its own domestic quarrels,
Itut such controversies can. In his Judg
ment, at the worst only obstruct and
delay success; they cannot annihilate
It. If the present generation of Irish
leaders cannot restrain themselves, he
suspects that his country "will seek
and will find before long a generation of
liiHhmen better gifted with that self
restraint and that discipline which are
needed for success In any manner of
battle." In the meantime the return
of tho Tories to power will, In his opln
Ion, discipline and strengthen the Irish
forces, while the Intrinsic worthlessness
of the present governing system will, as
It discloses Itself from day to day, em
phaslze in the public mind the need of
a pacttled and reconciled Ireland.
Wlrh perfect, and, as we believe,
justifiable faith, iMr. McCarthy re
marks, "adverse conditions of this kind
and that may delay home rule, but Its
coming Is certain. Its cnus? represents
one of the great principles of modern
constitutional government, and It will
be carried to success by constitutional
ways."
It ought to be gratifying to the Ro
publicans of Lackawanna county, as It
certainly Is to The Tribune, that the
Democratic Philadelphia Times is dis
pleased with their course. The dis
pleasure of the enemy Is a certificate
of effectiveness.
Chairman Gllkeson Is not afraid to
lay his roll of the delegates before the
people two days in advance of the con
vention. Will the Quay disorganized
possess equal confidence In the integ
rity of their claims?
If it is true that Cameron has nailed
up the bung-hole of his "barl," It sim
ply proveB that Cameron knows when
he Is licked. Quay would be money in
pocket If he should follow Cameron'B
example. For Quay, too, Is beaten.
Talk of two conventions Is designed
by the Quay leaders In the hope of
scaring Hastings' friends Into permit
ting Quay to dictate the roll call. But
it will not work, and Bluffer Quay is
beaten.
Just as soon as the Wyoming county
mathematicians shall demonstrate
that one-sixth Is a majority, the Quay
delegate will be morally entitled to his
seat. And Senator Quay is beaten.
The real meaning of the present hue
and cry against Librarian SpofTard
probably is that some hungry Demo
crat of one-thousandth part of his char
acter and ability wants his place.
The decision of the Pennsylvania
Christian Endeavor convention to meet
next year in Scranton was one whoso
wisdom time will affirm. Scranton is
the convention city of the state.
It will be ascertained within seventy
two hours that the Republicans of
Pennsylvania own themselves and do
not need Democratic help in the elec
tion of their state chairman.
Would Colonel Wat res call It "fair
play" to unseat the regularly chosen
Northumberland delegates, because
Quay needs others In their place? And
Henator Quay Is beaten.
If Quay claimed twenty-two dele
gates In Philadelphia and got only
fifteen, what will be the percentage of
his shrinkage when the state at large
Is polled? ' .
. Senator Andrews will discover, not
later than Wednesday of thjs week.
that the Republicans of Pennsylvania
do not want him for their acting gover
nor.
There's plausibility In the theory
that Henator Quay has lost Interest In
Lackawanna county. Lackawanna's
grapes hang beyond Mn reach.
Neither Irresponsible scurrility nor
Insensate bluffing can bolster up a
cause that's founded on fraud. And
Senator Quay Is beaten.
The chances are that tomorrow
night's caucuses at llarrlsburg will
avert a contest by showing Quay that
It's his cue to drop,
The funny part of It la that the Sus
quehanna auction was knocked down
to the losing side. And Senator Quay
la beaten.
The solicitude of Colonel Alexander
MoClure for the welfare of the Repub
lican party la truly touching.
As for the 'Republican party. It will
continue to own Itself. For Senator
Quay Is beaten.

In their possession that they have an

that on any fair trial they will hold It.
They feel that their position is so as

to be made: to pledge themselvs that all
aaienies wno nosar me regular oreaentlala
shall be entered on it without regard to
whether they are for Hastings or Quay:
iiwii vhhbuihhv auu uraiMvcu in mie or I

friends wllllns to aa as much? Do they
aet like winners In manufacturing spur
ious contests in this city? Do they snow
confluence In having a majority when
they resort to unurecedented and revolu
tionary methods for the purjiose of obtain
ing control? Uo4hey Justify their claims
when they undertake to oonvoke the
state committee and UBurn the chairman's
duty in order to make up a roll In their
own interest In a manner which they dure
not avow? Neither party to this contro
versy can afford to perpetrate any wrong
at Harriaburg. Both must pass public
Judgment. The friends of Governor Hnwt
Insa will not attempt to violate any party
law, and the friends of Senator Quay will
not be permitted to."
No Jast Cause for Trouble.
Philadelphia Press: "There onsht to be
