The speech of Joseph Wharton, presi dent of the Hethlehom Iron company and permanent chairman of the meet ing follows: One of the most Important duties to he perform)! by the legislature of Penn sylvania at Us session which is to begin two weeks from today is the election of n man to succeed .Mr. Cameron as a rep resentative of this great stute In the United States senate. it Is conceded that this new senator ehall lie a Philadelphia)!, nud tho iii we as citizens cannot vote directly for any on)', having transmitted our rights in l his respect to the senators und rcnivs.vila tives whom we sent to the legislature, we retain the right to express our opinions concerning the candidates In any orderly manner that pleases us. We have chosen to come together this evening, so to ex press ourselves. We all know that the wise and diligent performance of duty as a 1'nlteJ States senator requires great natural ability, supplemented by wloiuule training mil by willingness to labor. The full powers of many of the greatest men that our country has produced have been tiixol to their utmost In the forum of the I'liilcd States senate. The full powers of cur wisest and best are now demand) d, nid are not more than sufficient for prjpeiiy representing our state In that great nrna. Yet we all believe that our city possesses not one man only, but several men to whom we could safely commit the impr ests of our state In the debutes and strug gles that are to occur there. We have men whose Intellect can grnsp the problems that must come before the senate, men whose training In the legal profession orMn business affairs ns pre pared them to Judge these problems ei.r- reetly, whose experience perhaps Pi leg islation has educated them to the rou tine of legislative bodies and to ready performance of the functions devolving upon the members of such u body; men Klso whose high character, good Judg ment, and all-round common sense com mand the respect and c-outldence of tin Ir fellow citizens. They ure not numerous, but they exist, TWO CANDIDATES. At this moment, however, only (wo candidates from. Philadelphia are ! the field, and as no others are likelv to ap pear, no others need now be discuss.-d These two are, as you well know, John A the Wind and Pain in th? Stomach. Sick Ib-adsche. Wananiakcr and Holes Penrose. We have the right to consider them dispassionate ly, weighing the merits of each, anil de claring our preference, without f'.'.ir or favor, for the one who seems to us best fitted for the place. Let us consider llrst him who has b"'ii most assiduously put forward; namely, John Wanamiiker. Mr. Waiiamukcr Is a lnim of r.'mivk nble ability, who has by Ills own sagac ity and diligence attained wealth, who has shown unusual organizing power In his own extended business, ami who has creditably tilled the important executive otllce of postmaster general. lie has overcome many obstacles, has found means to accomplish many dllll-'ult things, has acquired the art of causing numerous subordinates to do punctually their several parts in complicated i.f falrs to effect a desired purpose. tin the other hand It may be said ti'at the masterful temperament that Is til ted to rule subordinates might fail to bring ulHjut the cordial co-operation of equals that Is needed 111 legislation. It seems certain that his extensive busi ness would demand most of bis time, so that the state could have the advantage of but a remnant of his energies. Vou will remember that in the t.liaid will case, the great 'Hunlel Webster, devntia.,' hut a fraction of his time to this famous cause, was defeated by 111)' unremitting care of Horace lllnney, then a compara tively unknown young lawyer. .Mori- Important than these. Is to my mind, the objection that Sir. Wananiakcr Is the largest Importer of foreign goods In this stat)'. one of the largest importers In the nation; that In the course of his enormous business lie has frequent ei.n llicts in the courts with the collectors of customs, and that as senator he must participate in tariff legislation, that lie would, perhaps, virtually uomlnat tie' collector of Philadelphia, and luigh! en influence the appointment at Xew York, ll seems to me unsuitable that a man so situated should be l ulled States sea.U r. Pinallv. to meet the assertion lliat Mr. Wanamiiker Is the choice of the busi ness men of his state, I niusi lie allowed to remark that this meeting nuiy well cause doubt of the unanimity of this chit!''e. Mr. Penrose, It may be at once en ceded, lacks some of the saliciil quali ties, of .Mr. Wannmakrr. He has put been victorious over a host of feebler competitors in the strife of trade, nor reached the commercial eminence of his .rival He has not organized great n cessful establishments for buying mil selling, nor attained such wealth i!S Mr. Wananiuker's. He Is no men-hunt pilin Hi- has held no great executive oM'.oe. What then are the merits that quality him for tills high olllee of Pulled .St ues senator? Kirst. It Is. I think, a distinct advantage that he is not engrossed by commercial business, and also that he Is not encum bered by great wealth. It sulllies that he bus known how to manage his uffaiis ami those of his clients, and that bis means are adequate to free him from small cares. PlIXi'.OSK'S OPALll-'ICATluXS. When we regard his training, we It ml him a graduate with honors of Harvard university, u well equipped lawyer, who has been for twelve years a stall' sena tor. He not only has studied and prac. tired law, but lias served apprenticeship In the art of legislation- he would enter the new career preparol to take part at once, without preliminary blundering, but with th) skill of an adept in whatevi r tusk the interest of his slap- or of the nation might Impose upon him. Obvious ly he could serve his stute better at Wash ington, because he has served her well at Hailisburg. I'pon the vital question of honest money. Mr. Penrose is thorougn ly sound. In the defense of odr domestic Industries by suitable protective Impir: duties . upon foreign goods, oar state would linil him an able ami etlU-leut champion. Because I consider Holes Penrose bet ter titled than John Wanatnakir by training and experience, and by his posi tion In life, for this particular task of r. p res.iitlng Pennsylvania in the Pulled States senate, 1 advocate his election to that ollice. PEN LOSE SPHAKf. After two other speeches. Senator Penrose himself appeared mi the stage anil received an unexampled ovation. This is what he said: I would indeed be insensible If I did not deeply appreciate tin- cordial and gen erous indorsement of my candidacy for the Pulled States senate by this splen did meeting. When I see the represen tative business men und prominent citi zens here tonight who have exprcss'-d their approval of my candidacy by acting as otlieeis ami vice-presidents of this meeting, I realize the grave responsibil ity I shall owe to the vast business in. tei'psts of our great nianuiaciiiilng state in the event of my election to lids im portant Otitic. I cannot but be touched by the evi dences of friendship und support of the old soldiers of our state as shown by their numerous and brilliant representa tion here tonight. over thirty years ago the American soldier comprised the youth and patriotism anil chivalry of our land. The memories of those who perished in the civil war are enshrined in the memory of a grateful people, and the survivors oi the conflict with venera tion and respect. 1 have always been glad III my public career to serve the soldier when called upon, and I want to assure you old soldiers here tonight, that to the full extent of my strength and ability I shall always uphold Invio late tho.ie principles of American liberty and free government preserved to us by your heroism. A Tnii'.fTR TO WOMAN, To those r ltli.) lis and organizations who have com,- Irom other counties to attend this meeting 1 must particularly express my thanks. Thut they should come so far and in such numbers is Indeed a compliment that I prize. Not least do I value in the composition of this great assembly tne presence of the ladies here tonight. Kvery year the women of Anie lett are taking an increased and Intelli gent Interest in public affairs. Their In fluence Is wisely and usefully exerted and can have no other than an improving ,-t. feet in the upward am! onward develop, ment of American Institutions and prin ciples. To this great audience nt large composed of the active ami stalwart Re publicans of Philadelphia, 1 can hurlly THE PARIS Opposite Wyoming House. CLOAKS AND MILLINERY FIRST IN STYLES.

Licka wanna and Wyoming Ares., SCRAMTON, PA. find words to express adequately the sen timents 1 entertain for the magiilticent Indorsement given me at their hands. 1 realize that among you are a very lurge number who have been comrades with me ns lighting Republicans who have aided in bringing our party to such a glorious position that In Novem ber lust in this city we gave the unpre cedented majority of nearly 110,1100 for McKinley and Hobart. The claims of Philadelphia for recog nition at this time In the selection of the Piiiied States senator are recognized by the people of Pennsylvania. .My own candidacy has been before the people for nearly n year. 1 have appealed di rectly to the people of this city without the support ot patronage, with nothing to promise or to give, und I have today the free, vclcntary und vigorous sup port of a considerate majority of the senators and representatives from this city. Inspired by the trust and con fidence pla-vd In me hy them ami by i!.e great constituency they represent, 1 ,'on lidcntly apical to the people of the. stale of Pennsylvania for support. I fully realize the Importance of the ottice of Pnlted States senator of Penn sylvania, and if 1 am elected I shall "go to Washington with the determination to serve the people faithfully ami Indus trtoiisly, and to labor zealously for thoso great Issues now before our country. The llrst duty of the next congress will be to enact such laws as will extend fair and adequate protection to Ameri can industry and thus restore comfort ami happiness to the homes of the Ameri can workingnien. Pennsylvania particu larly, with her wonderful transportation facilities by water and by rail, her cheap fuel, lu-r Iron, her many commercial pro ducts and her natural resources will then again resume the great industrial march, which is destined soon to make our mag iilllient commonwealth the manufactur ing center of the world. TIIK SIKUCHANT SI AH IX K. Our merchant marine should be en couraged by proper legislation. We will then have at our command a host of hardy and courageous sailors, useful in time of peine and wur. our ships must be biiili at home! We have ulreudy shown thut we can build ships uetlc.' than those of Knglaml or uny oi'he.' country. Here, upon the shores of the Helawule, where every necessary nai turul condition exists, there should be developed und encouraged those great ship building industries for which we ure already famous, und In which we should rival the world. The merchant marine sailing under the American Hag was once fojud everywhere and dominated the commerce of tin" would. 1 can and should be restored to Its rornu-r splendid position. The American navy must be in creased so that our government may un der all circumstances maintain ami en force, if necessary, its proper position In lis foreign relations. It Is our duly to establish coast del', uses und adequate protection to our seuport cities 111 case ol war. We should encourage, so far as we ciin, without disregarding the long-established American policies every brave pen. pie struggling for the same degree of lib ci ty which we possess. KKSTKICTlON OP 1SI Mil! ItATIoX. There Is no advantage in transferring to our shores the industries of Kurope if our American workingmeii, for whose bcnelli ihi-y are brought home, are de prived of the opportunity to earn good vvuges, by the unrestricted I ligralion of Hie. cheap laborers of Kurope, often un fit or unwilling to assume the honors and responsibilities of American citizenship. Proper restrictions on foreign Immigration are or the most vital Importance to our people, und to the enactment of such re striction the Republican party Is distinct ly pK lined in tin- last national platform, ami proper legislation should be enacted at the earliest possible day in this direc tion. The principle Involved lies ut the foundation of American Institutions. I lur government depends absolutely up. on the people for Its conduct. It can only be maiiiialncd by preserving the in telligence und independence, and the man hood of the American citizen, und this cannot be done if the American working man Is to be degraded to the level of the pauper labor of Kurope. We must realize the dangers to this country from Ignor ance, communism ami anarchy, proper legislation must lie enacted where neces sary to suppress those evils, and the pub lic authority must be prompt, vigorous and determined in suppressing the disor ders due to them when called upon. pi:i:si:nvix; sopxd sionhy. Never In our history did the American people so demonstrate their fitness for free government as ut the last election. Hy Intelligent discussion throughout the length and breadth of this land the bat tle was fought, involving u ditllcult ami complicated linanclal question, the Ameri can people demonstrated unmisiukubly their determination to maintain inviolate national honor. It will be the duty of the Itepuhllcun putty to preserve zealously the Integrity of public anil private credit upon a basis of sound money. The great American principles of lib erty anil free government for which our forefathers made heroic sacrifices should lie zealously upheld by us. The truditluns of American patriotism should be pre served. It lias been remarked thut the few great nations of history have hud their distinctive trail, and that each has made Its particular contribution to the progress of mankind. The Creek had the genius of an, the Inspiration for the beautiful; the Roman founded law ami government, the Hebrew contended for the conception of one Cud. and from tills nation were uttered the eternal truths of Christianity which constitute the religion of civilized mankind. America also, tho last product of time, has her glorious mission In the development of a splendid American citizenship, representing the highest individual Intelligence, cultivation and well being of the masses of the peo ple that the world has ever seen. The American citizen, man or woman, edu cated in the public schools over which tloats the American flag und within which Is the open llible, possessing an oppor tunity to earn hv honest toil n comfort, able living, participating Intelligently in the government of the country, represents a new type of civilization. This nation founded by patriotic Christian men and women, Inspired and permeated hv in.' eternal truths of Christianity, represents the best hopes of the human race. A sin cere, alibiing ami patriotic faith In the upward and onward development of our great country should be our Inspiration. STOCKS AND MARKETS. Wall Street Ilevicw. New York, Dec. "3.
