TENTH'S REPRESENTATION.
Attention was called to the fact that
the Tenth ward had returned two dele
gates. Attorney M. W. Lowry made a
statement to the effect that at the last
state election 105 votes were cast for
State Treasurer Jackson, the head of
the Republican ticket. The rules of the
party as he understood It was that
there must be ten Republican votes In
a district to entitle It one representative
and for every one hundred over that
number they were entitled to an addi
tional delegate. As this would only
give the Tenth ward one delecate he
moved that Mr. Buenzll and Mr. Ray
ner be given half a vote each.
This drew forth a protest from Mr.
Buenzll. Attorney James J. H. Hamil
ton did not agree with Mr. Lowry's
Interpretation of the rules. He said a
district Is entitled to a representative
for each one hundred Republican votes
and fraction thereof no matter how
small that fraction Is. A copy of the
rules was obtained and it was found
that Mr. Hamilton's position was the
correct one. Mr. Lowry withdrew his
motion and the narhes of the two Tenth
ward delegates remained on the roll,
and each had a full vote.
Joseph Danner nominated Fred Durr
for temporary chairman and John F.
Scheuer named Fred W. Zizelman. The
roll was called by the secretary and the
vote was as follows: Durr, 22; Zizel
man, 15. Chairman Seamans declared
Mr. Durr the temporary chairman. Mr.
Durr thanked the delegates for the
honor and then called for nominations
for temporary secretaries and on motion
of M. W. Lowry, C. . Seamans and
Isadore Goodman were chosen. Chair
man Durr named the following- com
mittees: THE COMMITTEES.
Resolutions M. W. Lowry, A. 8. Al
worth, Joseph Kramer.
Permanent Organization C. B. Gardner,
Charles F. Kloss, M. D. Hlne.
Chairman Gardner of the committee
on permanent organization, presented
a report recommending that the tem
porary organization be made perman
ent. On motion of W. E. Davis the
report was adopted. Chairman Lowry
of the resolutions committee, read the
platform which closed with the follow
ing paragraph:
In conclusion we desire to express our
hearty appreciation of the faithful and
effective services rendered by our present
representative from this district, Hon. A.
T. Connell. and believe that hie arduous
labors In that behalf have earned for him
the united support of his constituents to
re-elect him for another term in the legli
lature of tras commonwealth.
Attorney James J. H. Hamilton ob
jected to the latter part of the resolu
tion concerning; the reelection of Mr.
Council which he said was in effect
pledging the delegates to vote for Mr.
Connell something all of them were not
willing to do. If Mr. Connell was nom
inated by the convention no one, he
said, would be more willing to favor
such a resolution but prior to the nom
ination he thought It Improper to offer
it. Mr. Lowry arose and by permis
sion of the other members of the res
olutions committee withdrew that por
tion of the paragraph given above
which follows the words "Hon. A. T.
Connell." The remainder of the reso
lutions were then adopted and are as
follows:
.THE RE8OHJTI9N0.
Wt, tho representatives of the Republi
can party of the Second Legislative dis
trict of Lackawanna county, la conven
tion assembled, hereby renew our al
legiance to those principles which have
becomo identical with Republican policy,
and declare our faith In their ultimate
triumph. '
We Invite the sincere and candid reflec
tion of every elector upon the Issues of
this campaign, believing it to be the
frravest political crisis since the first
great conflict of our party, and that
upon the result rests for a, term, the
weal or woe of a free people.
We submit to the honest scrutiny of
every Intelligent voter the history of our
party, and point with pride to the able
ml wise exercise of the functions of ov.
ernment by our party leaders, who have
been lu authority; and we declare to the
voters of this city ana county that, as
this vexing and calamitous Democratic
administration wanes, and we are con
fronted with a new. speculative and more
dangerous opposition, it behooves every
man to consult his own interests and the
Interests of his country and, having done
so, decide whether they will accept the
fallacious arguments and pernicious doc
trines of the new opposition, or return
again to power that party which the
people have never trusted In vain.
'We believe that business and confi
dence, recently crippled by a free trade
policy, would be more completely para
lyzed by an era of depreciated currency.
We heartily endorse the platform as
enunciated by our national convention at
St. Louis, and the standard bearers she
leave us In that great champion of pro
tection and reciprocity, William McKln
ley, of Ohio, and of Garret A. Hobart, of
New Jersey.
We further endorse and recommend to
the suffrage of the voters of Pennsylva
nia the platform adopted by our state
convention and the choice tt made for
conwreaamen-at-large, Galusha A. Grow,
of Susquehanna, and Samuel A Daven.
port, of Erie.
We especially recommend to the voters
of Lackawanna the nominee of our late
county convention for congress, William
Connell, of Scranton, believing thait he
will represent with signal ability this
great Industrial district; and we urge the
support of every voter of this county and
city to the candidacy of the other nomi
nees of that convention, Samuel W. Rob
erts and Giles Roberts, for county com
missioners, and A. E. Klefer and Fred L.
Ward, for courWy auditors.
We congratulHte the Republicans of this
congressional district In the able repre
sentation given us by the present Incum
bent, Hon. Joseph A. Scranton.

NAMING THE CANDIDATES.
The chairman asked for nominations
for legislature and F. W. Zizelman nom
inated Fred Ehrhardt. The nomination
was seconded by Attorney Hamilton,
who reviewed briefly the Issues of the
campaign and dwelt upon the Import
ance of Bending1 good men to the legis
lature this year. Mr. Ehrhardt, he
said, would add strength to the county
and state tickets.
The name of Alexander T. Connell
was placed in nomination by Fred W.
Fleltz, who performed the same ser
vices two years ago. He paid a glow
ing tribute to Mr. Conncll'9 effective
work for his constituents in the last
legislature, and said that his splendid
record entitled him to a renomlnatlon
and re-election. If he did not get It
the district and not Mr. Connell would
be the loser. The nomination was sec
onded by W. E. Davis and M. W Lowry.
The Irttter spoke of Mr. Connell as the
only Republican who had ever been
successful In carrying the Second dis
trict. The mil was called and the vote
resulted as follows:
Ehrhardt 17
Connell 20
Chairman Durr .declared Mr. Connell
the nominee, and on motion of Attor
ney Hamilton, seconded by Delegate
Hackett, the nomination was mude
unanimous. Messrs. Lowry, Fleltz:
and Davis were appointed to bring the
candidate before the convention, and he
appeared soon afterwards and made a
short speech, thanking the delegates
for the nomination. He felt that it was
due him, and it wns nothing more than
he expected from the delrates In view
of his labors for the people, of the dis
trict during the term he was their rep
resentative at Harrlsburg.
On motion of Mr. Fleltz the candidate
was directed to name his committee in
the usual way and the convention then
adjourned.

He owns a lot of land In Wlnton

land for street purposes. They then
gave him a street line and he erected a
house in conformity to that line.
Afterwards the courts fnlled to ap

The fire in our basement on July 27th, damaged some 800 yards of Straw Matting.
They were only slightly damaged by water, and one would scarcely notice the difference.
Others, and some of the Carpets stored there, were somewhat smoked and will be sold at
less than ONE-HALF their value.
Think of Hattings at 5c and ioc Per Yard.
Think of Carpets at 20c Per Yard.
To give the public a chance to buy from our entire stock at reduced prices, we have
marked down the price on everything. Draperies as well as Carpets.

In the day's contributions was
$1,000.03 from the residents of Forest

in the name of the residents of the town
it represents more especially the char

suming the population of the town to
number 3,000 persons, the gift in total
represents about 30 cents from each
man, woman end child. In that re
spect Forest City's contribution is more
than that of any other community. It
Scranton did proportionately as well,
the city's subscription would amount
