REPUBLICAN STATE CONVENTION.
To tho Republican electors of Pennsylva
nia, .
The Republlcani of Pennsylvania, by
their duly chosen representatives, will
meet tn state convention Thursday. April
13. 1896, at 10 o'clock a. m., In the opera
house, city of Harrli.burs, for the pur
pose of nominating two candidates for
representative-at-large In consress ami
thirty-two candidate for presidential
electors, the selection of eight delegates-at-Wga
to the Republican national con
vention, and for the transaction of such
other business as may be presented.
By order of the state committee.
M. 8. Quay,
Atttat:- Chairman.
Jere B. Rex,
W. R. Andrews,
Secretaries.
Put your ear to the ground and you
can hear a faint but growing Harrison
ground-swell.
Today's Primaries.
Primary elections will be held this
afternoon In the First and Fourth leg
islative districts, In each case to elect
two delegates to the approaching state
convention. In the First district there
Is a contest to determine whether the
delegates shall be Quay men with or
without strings; but It Is hardly prob
able that the voters of that district will
care to chose as their representatives
at Harrisburg men whoso only purpose
in entering the contest Is to promote
the personal Interests of Joseph A.
Scranton.
In the Fourth district there was some
talk, a week or two ago, of raising the
McKInley Issue. This emanated from
the faction which one year ago fought
under the Quay banner, but afterward,
It seemed, meditated desertion to the
Ohtoan. This threatened snub of Penn
sylvania's candidate has not, however,
yet materialized, and It probably will
not. The action of Mark Hanna, tho
McKInley manager, in refusing to fight
Alllfon In Iowa would apply as well
to Quay In Pennsylvania and leave
these self-assumed Carbondale cham
pions' of McKInley discredited by Mc
Klnley's own agent.
It will be proper in both districts for
Republican to elect delegates who will
stand by Senator Quay as long as he is
a candidate and' who,' at Harrisburg,
will be guided largely by his judgment
In thu choice of the eight delegates-at-large
who are to present and in a
special sense represent his candidacy
before the St. Louts convention. The
question of a second choice can wisely
be deterred until a second choice shall
become necessary.
Again we learn that Carlisle Is to pro
claim himself a presidential candidate.
Well, the Democratic boom room is yet
ample,
Goldwln Smith on Cuba.
A dignified but none the less severe
reply to ex-Mlnlster Edward J. Phelp's
characterization of the Cuban insur
gents as "banditti" is made by Goldwln
Smith, the eminent English historian
and scholar, In a communication to the
Philadelphia Press. Mr. Smith admits
the contention of Mr. Phelps that a
bandit has no right to recognition, but
he does not concede that the Cuban
revolter deserves so harsh a term. "A
bandit," observes Mr. Smith, "Is a man
fighting for plunder. It is not alleged
that the Cubans are fighting for plund
er or dented that they are fighting for
political emancipation. Their present
revolt is one of a series by which Its
character is fixed. They may supply
themselves by foraging or they may de
stroy for military purposes; but it is
not alleged that plunder Is the object
of their rebellion. The war which they
make is Irregular, perhaps highly ir
regular, but it is war, not brigandage.
They are, In short, guerrillas; a name
.which recalls the struggle of the Span
iards themselves against the foreign
yoke of Napoleon, a port of her history
of which Spain Is justly proud."
Professor Smith adds to this oppor
tune recollection some additional his
torical parallels. "Three centuries
ago," he remarks, "the patriots of the
Netherlands took up arms for civil and
religious liberty against the intrusive
tyranny of their Spanish master. At
first they made a war not unlike that
which the Cubans are making now.
They were called tn derision the 'beg
gars' and themselves accepted the
name. Teb history has recognized them
not only as belligerents but as the no
blest of belligerents, and the fruit of
their warfare was free- Holland, with
her republican institutions,' her relig-
'lous liberty, her commerce, her learn
ing and all that she has done for hu
manity." Again, "what was the war of
the Mexicans against the satrap of the
French Emperor but a guerrilla war?
. Yet the American Republic recognised
In It a legitimate struggle for freedom
and as soon as Its own hands were free
lent Mexico moral aid. The same char
acter has probably been assumed more
or less by every armed struggle for
freedom In Its early stage. It Is not
lUuhjr that aa oppressed people rising
acting tha oppressor -would' at ones
be able to put a regular army on foot
or to command the appliances of form
al war. The original 'Minute Men' of
the American Revolution were not reg
ulars, nor did they make war In regu
lar style." Professor Smith does not
ask, but his citation certainly suggests
the question whether Mr. Phelps re
gards the American fighters In the bat
tles of Lexington and Bunker Hill as
"banditti," deserving only of the con
tempt of nations.
With regard to the legal lsaue as to
Cuba's belligerency, the Anglo-Canadian
scholar does not attempt to meas
ure swords with Mr. Phelps. He con
tents himself with the remark that "if
the Cuban insurgents have not a gov
ernment It would seem they have a ter
ritory; for the Spanish victories appear
to be gained at no great distance from
Havana." If the Democratic ex-minister
to England has a reply to offer to
this defense by an- Englishman of a
people struggling for freedom, or if he
wisheB to make another effort to steady
the arm of European tyranny on soil
only eighty miles distant from free
America, the lists are open. We will
back Goldwln Smith against htm at any
time and In any place.
A good mind reader might get a Job
trying to find out whether Rev. Mr.
Hogan or the conference took water.
The Portico Issue.
It Is by this time pretty clearly ap
parent, we think, that the hostile atti
tude of councils to the Frothlngham
band stand portico Is largely personal In
its origin. We do not doubt that if any
other property owner on Wyoming ave
nue sought for the privilege which Mr.
Frothlngham has endeavored to secure.
It would cheerfully be granted. But
councils, we understand, have never
hud a friendly feeling for Mr. Frothlng
ham since some of its members unsuc
cessfully tried to get their names placed
on tho free list of his theater.
Legally, we have no doubt that if Mr.
Frothlngham Is arrested in accordance
with the Chittenden resolution and his
portico torn down by the street commis
sioner, the city will render Itself liable
to damages. The plans of the new ar
cade were approved by the building In
spector, and If that does not exonerate
Mr. Frothlngham it will be In order to
ascertain what a building inspector is
for. It Is certainly true that If the por
tico be condemned, half the business
buildings In the city will be subject to
equal legal objection, and to avoid the
appearance of discrimination It will be
necessary for the city to proceed
against all offenders alike.
So far as public sentiment is con
cerned, it is entirely on Mr. Frothlng
ham's side. We have not heard a single
dissent to the proposition that his band
stand would be a public advantage.
More than that, the opinion Is general
that the theater entrance should be pro
tected by an archway, as In other enter
prising cities. There are many persons
who would like to see in councils a
larger number of men who can rise
above personal prejudices in their treat
ment of public Issues.
Senator Chandler made a nasty fight.
Now that he has got the worst of it,
few persons will shed tears.
McKInley and Reciprocity.
One of the charges which has long
been held over the head of Major Mc
KInley in that he was a determined foe
of the Blaine doctrine of reciprocity
when that Idea was first presented for
Incorporation in the McKInley tariff
bill. Relying upon reiterated news
paper statements heretofore never de
nied, we have ourselves, in times past,'
laid, this charge against McKlnley's
door. It Is no more than Just, there
fore, to give him at this time, the bene
fit of a conclusive defense, voluntarily
rendered by William E. Curtis, who
was one of Mr. Blaine's most intimate
and trusted assistants in the prepara
tion of the reciprocal trade treaties of
1890 and '91. Says Mr. Curtis:
"The international American confer
ence which was In session in Washing
ton during the winter of 1889-90, had un
der consideration the subject of estab
lishing a customs union under which
It was proposed to have a complete In
terchange of products among all the
nations of the American hemisphere,
without import duties, similar to the
German sollvereln and the free trade
that exists between our states. This
was declared impossible so far as it in
cluded articles of luxury, for the reason
that the other American republics are
entirely dependent upon import duties
for revenue; but it was agreed and
recommended that a series of reci
procity treaties might be negotiated be
tween them for the free interchange
of food products and other necessaries
of life.
"While the discussion was going on
the foreign delegates observed with
great solicitude the progress of the
preparation of the McKInley law. The
conflicting reports In the newspapers
of what had been or would be done with
the tariff schedules In which were In
cluded the staple products and chief
exports of the country from which they
came afforded a topic of more interest
ing discussion than the questions under
discussion in their own councils. To
allay their apprehensions concerning
the proposed changes In the duties up
on sugar, hides, carpet wools and some
other articles, the secretary of state
asked the committee of ways and
means not to disturb the existing tariff
schedules so far as those articles were
concerned. He assured them of his
confidence that valuable concessions
might be obtained by diplomatic ne
gotiations from the other American re
publics In favor of the agricultural and
mechanical products of the United
States, which would be impossible if
the duties on hides and sugar were re
moved and the duties upon carpet
wools and other articles Increased as
was then proposed. In lieu of such ac
tion he suggested an amendment to the
bill carrying out the recommendations
of the conference and embracing his
own Ideas as to what might be done by
the United States.
"One morning In February, 1890, I
think it was the 7th or 8th, Mr. Blaine
asked me to take that amendment' to
the capttoland hand It to Representa
tive McKInley, with a request that It
be added to the tariff bill. I knocked
at the door of the room of ways and
means and found the committee in ses
sion. Mr. McKInley came out Into the
corridor, where I handed him the
amendment, explained to him what It
was. told him of Mr. Blaine's wishes
and the action of the international con
ference on the same subject. He read
the typewritten manuscript and said:
'Tell Mr. Blaine that I will submit this
to the committee." 'Will you support
it?' I asked. 'Yes.' was his reply. 'I
am In favor of the proposition.' I
found out afterward that within a very
few moments In fact, as soon as the
question under discussion was disposed
of Mr. McKInley submitted the Blaine
amendment to the committee. It was
discussed for a few moments and a
vote was taken, Mr. McKInley alone
voting In the affirmative. From that
time and all through the discussion
that followed Mr. McKInley consist
ently supported the plan of reciprocity,
and he was the only member of the
committee on -ways and means who did.
The other Republican members were
finally and reluctantly forced to sup
port it by public opinion."
This explanation is as timely as it Is
complete. It disposes of one serious
obstacle to Major McKlnley's nomina
tion and will go far tq reconcile to his
candidacy, should he be named at St.
Louis, that considerable commercial
and manufacturing element in the Re
publican party which has regarded the
Blaine safety valve of reciprocal possi
bilities as the one reassuring part of
the mechanism of high protection. We
are glad to be able to give the Ohio
aspirant credit for larger prescience
than he has heretofore been credited
with by unbiased and unemotional ob
servers. Mrs. Craigle, the English novelist,
gives the American people an unex
pectedly good character. First, we are,
as a class, deeply but not obtrusively
religious; next, we have a general desire
to succeed on individual merit; third, we
are whole-hearted, generous and pa
triotic; and lastly comes this remark
able assertion: "I don't recollect having
heard during my recent visit one woman
say an unkind word about another. Un
gracious personalities didn't find a
place in the conversation; there was no
retailing of scandal, no ungenerous ex
change of tittle-tattle.". We wonder, is
Mrs. Craigle Jesting?
John Sherman puts the whole subject
In a paragraph when, in the April
Forum, he calls attention to the fact
that under the McKInley bill the . re
ceipts of the government from Octo
ber, 1890, to October. 1892, were $759.
456,825. The expenditures during the
same time were $731,211,184, leaving a
surplus in the treasury of $28,245,641.
Under the Wilson bill the receipts from
September, 1894, to December, 1895,
were $444,290,692, leaving a deficiency of
$70,500,044. This is Republicanism vs.
Democracy reduced from a theory to a
condition.
It will pain the flon. E. J. Phelps to
learn that the president of Mexico ap
proves of the Monroe doctrine and wants
It made the International law of the
western hemisphere. Indeed, General
Diaz goes further, and declares his be
lief that Uncle Sam ought to help all
brother republics In distress. The clam
Idea of diplomacy seems to be popular
only among hucksters and mugwumps.
The story that Tom Reed will retire
from public life unless nominated for
president is very thin. The man who
believes it has yet to comprehend Tom
Reed.
The effort to draw Are on McKInley
by representing him as friendly to sli
ver will simply make him all the strong
er among the people.
roLmcir points.
General Reeder's colleague-as national
delegate from the Eighth Congressional
district will be J. M. Drelsbach, of Car
bon. Carbon gets this favor because it
has not had the honor of a national dele
gate for many years. In addition to that
It has a larger Republican vote than both
Pike and Monroe combined.
Whatever the Issue at St. Louis, Mark
Hanna will come out of It a famous char
acter. Colleague or opponent must like
Hanna. No one can help admiring the
man's cheerfulness, loyalty, generosity
and nerve. A politician tor pure love of
it, he is exhibiting a mastery of the game
equalled by few professionals, and the
latter are bound to feel for such a man a
genuine respect. If McKInley wins, Han
na ought certainly to be made national
chairman, end afterward, if he wants it,
consul general to London.
Ail applications for press tickets to the
St. Louis convention should be directed
to M. T. Ryrnes, serjeant-at-arms, Minne
apolis, Minn. All applications for scats
to be distributed to distinguished guescs
throughout tho country should also be
made to Mr. Bryne at 'Minneapolis. Each
delegate will be allowed three tickets in
addition to his own. The tickets for
members of the Grand Army of the Re
public will be given to the national coun
cil of administration, and distributed by
their direction. All tickets to the con
vention will be issued Monday, June 15, by
the sergeant-ut-arms at the convention
building.
" The McKInley tables all claim the dele
gates from Louisiana and Mississippi.
There Is good authority for saying that
in neither case is this claim true, or any
where near the truth. There are other
places than this where the McKInley col
umn could bo riddled if it were deemed
wise to disclose the plans of the opposi
tion. Whoever thinks that the so-called
antl-McKinley "ringsters" are asleep
these days is self-deceived. The chances
that McKInley will win at St. Louis are
really less today than they were threa
weeks axo, and knowing ones say they
will steadily decrease from this time for
ward. When Ell Perkins the other day asked
Senator Cullom If he really had, as re
ported, said mean things of McKInley,
the senator made this 'reply: "Pshaw, no!
I admire and respect McKInley too much
for that. The Democratic boys made that
up. But," continued the senator, "I
should like to say one thing about Gover
nor McKInley. I like to Bay that. In my
opinion, If you should take the smallest
hair on McKlnley's head, punch the pith
out of it with the little end of nothing,
and then ram into it all the brains of
Grover Cleveland and his entire cabinet,
throwing out Olney, and the brains of all
the Democratic candidates in sight, ex
cepting Whitney, Cal Brlce and Gorman,
and then shake that hair, it would rat
tle." ' '
The Magee crowd have formulated their
programme for tho coming state conven
tion. It is proposed to defeat Senator
Cameron for national delegate-at-large, If
possible. If Senator Penrose l a candi
date the combine will also try to beat
him. There will, of course, be a resolu
tion offered to Instruct the national dele-gates-at-large
for Quay for president.
This will call forth the hottest kind of
opposition from such leaders as C. L. Ma
gna and Attorney General McCormlck.
Senator FUnn says Quay told him his
campaign last summer cost $200,000. Ma
gee declared that he saved Congressman
W. A. Stone financially. With such bit
ter personalities already flying about, the
outlook Is favorable to a breezy time. An
effort may be made to stampede the con
vention for McKInley and to Instruct tho
delegates-at-large for him.
II
In view of the effort which Is to be put
forth by the silver men at the Chicago
convention to rescind the rule which re
quires a two-thirds vote to nominate a
Democratic presidential candidate, the
following history of that rule, reprinted
from the Washington Star, will have In
terest. "This history of the two-thirds
rule," It says, "dates back to the first
- ' .''.''.'.':- '".;- , .' ' i
convention ever hkl by he Democratic
party. It was called to meet In Baltimore
on the 21st of May. 1U2. Jackson had
previously been put out as the Democratic
ntmlnee by the New York legislature, but
New Hampshire, which Is tbe originator
of national conventions, called for tha
convention which was held. It was for
the purpose of nominating a candidate for
vice-president. Calhoun having quarrel I
with Jackson. The presiding officer of
this first Democratic convention was Gen
eral Robert Lucas, of Ohio, and the reso
lution requiring a two-thirds vote to nom
inate was Introduced by Delegate Saun
ders, of North Carolina. Tha object of
the resolution was to give the southern
men something of a veto power In the fu
ture conventions. The rule, as adopted by
the convention, and which has stoo. In
part, to thla day, was as follows: 'Re
solved. That each state be entitled, in
the nomination to be made of a candidate
for the vice-presidency, to a number of
votes equal to the number that they will
be entitled to In the electoral colleges un
der the new appointment In voting for
president and vice-president, and that
two-thirds of the whole - number
of votes in the convention shall
be necessary to constitute a choice.
At the Democratic convention at Balti
more In May. 1844. when Polk was nomi
nated, a strong effort was made to kill
the rule, but by a vote of 148 to 118 It was
allowed to stand. That was the origin cf
a rule which some' historians claim has
killed oft many of the best men the party
ever had. Following the adoption of the
rule the next Democratic convention was
held In Baltimore In 1835, and there thj
first candidate for president was nomi
nated. Van Buren was the nominee and
twenty-two states were represented.
After that conventions were considered
regular Institutions. It was not until 1852
that the rule allowing twice the number
of delegates In the electoral college was
adopted. That rule did not apply until
the Cincinnati convention in 185S. '
A FEASIBLE PKOPOSITION.
From the Carbcnualo Leader.
The proposition to build a cinder path
for tilcycles between Honesdale, Carbon
dale and Scrantcn Is entirely feasible and
Its consummation would be the MIrht
of thousands of wheelmen. The cost, of a
cinder path of sufflcletvt width Is said to be
less than $100 per mile, making the proba
ble total cost of the proposed wheelway
not over $3,500. In tho territory to be In
cluded there are not less than 8,5uO riders
of the wheel, so that an average of a dol
Ir from each would build the cinder path
and furnish one of the linest runs for the
cycle to be found In America If put into
Iho proper hsnds the project can be real
Used this summer with ease.
