SIR. WHARTON'S SPEECH.
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

publicans of Philadelphia, 1 can hurlly

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.

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.

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

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

made Its particular contribution to the

mission In the development of a splendid
