MR. HOLGATE OBJECTED It. II. Holgate objected to the por tion of tho resolutions with leference to tho Crawford county plan of con ducting primaries. Ho said that for a long tlmo tho conventions of the dis trict have been held In Scianton, the storm center of political corruption. Evory convention held thoro had felt tho effect of Influences outsldo the district. They wero trying to get awuy from this and do as every legislative district In tho state does, hold Its con vention within the confines of th dis trict. Now comes a resolution to com mit them Irrevocably to the city con vention nnd Its baleful Influences. Chairman AVntklns said that ho could seo no such Intention in tho planks of tho resolutions referred to He was In favor of holding tho convention In tho district nnd niadu n fight before the committee for tho adoption of a rule that would bring about that desired end. If tho planks retorted to con tained any such meaning ns Mr. Hol gate read unto them ne was against them but lie could not see thnt they did, Mr. Holg.tte renewed his objection nnd further stated that It was nn effort by resolution to change the rules of the party which could not be dona ut tho convention then In ses sion because It was not assembled for that purpose and voters had no notice that anything of tho kind was going to bo done. The chairman ruled that this point was well taken and the portion of tho tesolutions objected to were stricken out. Tho remainder was then unanimously adopted. STATE DELEGATES CHOSEN. The chairman called for nominations for stale delegates und Edward Harris of tho third distilct of the Sixth ward of this city nominated John 11. Thomas, of Taylor, nnd Edward Car penter, of Waverly. They wero unan imously elected. On motion of Dr. N. C. Mackcy they piocceded to the elec tion of alternates and John W. Reese, of Taylor, nnd Gilbert Grlffln, of South Abington, weie selected. Tho convention 'for the nomination of a candidate for tho legislature will probably bo held In Juno. The place will bo either Moscow or Dalton, with the probabilities In favor of the latter. FUNDS RUNNING LOW. Board of Associated Charities Will Have to Take Steps at Oocc to Replen ish Its Treasury. At a meeting of the Board of Asso ciated charities last night, D. J. Phil lips was elected acting treasuier of the board until the next annual meeting, to till the vacancy caused by the death of William T. Smith, who was treasurer of the boaid since Its oignnlzatlon. Mr. Phillips was Mr. Smith's confidential cleik and for some time before Mr. Smith's death attended to tho actual work connected with tho treusurershlp. A committee, consisting of W. G. Thomas, T. J. Moore and T. J. Kelly, wus appointed to draft suitable resolu tions on tho death of Mr. Smith, which will be piesented at the next meeting of the board The repoit of Acting Treasurer Phil lips showed that the finances of the board aro at a very low ebb. Tho sec retary, Rev. Rogers Israel, explained that It was unfortunate such was the case, for there are more demands on the board Just now than there has been for a long time, owing to the small amount of work being done In the mines. The greatest number of com plaints come from the West Side, where a number of men and boys have been thrown out of employment by the shut ting down of one colliery and the burn ing of a breaker. It was decided that something must be done at once to re plenish the treasury. The case of the two Kelly children, of Bellevue, boy and girl, was brought to the attention of the boaid. Both of tho children aio covered with running sores. The boy's nose Is nlmost en tirely lotted away and he presents a filghtful appearance. Although tho father has promised to properly care for his children they nre about tha stteets daily selling matches, papeis, etc. They are considered a standing menace to the health of those with whom they come In contact and the agent wus directed to have steps taken to place them In some suitable Institu tion. The repot t of the ngent of the faocl ety, Mrs. W. B. Duggan, showed that during tho month she Investigated twenty-nine cases and gave assistance to twenty-two. Seven of the applicants weie found to be unworthy. Ti aspor tation wus furnished to nine persons and employment was secuied for seven. Lodging and meals were furnished for two, one was sent to the House of the Good Shepherd, two to tho Hillside home, one to the Foundling home and one to tho Home for the Friendless. Two children wero taken from Jail, two were sent to telntlves nnd medical aid was furnished to thiee persons. ACTION OF LIBRARY TRUSTEES. Adopt Resolutions on tlm Donth of Hillinm T. Smith.
