Eauei's band and a ciowd of about two hundred peisons were nt the bta tlon and quietly looked on while the candidates, speakers and committee men were being loaded into carriages. Ros stationed at intervals along the streets set oil toman candles and red lire, and ut two business places led lire was binned. inside the imnoiy there was a good hbed gatheilng, possible 1,200, and when the candidates appeared on the platform there wns a bilef round of ii'lld applause. Mayor Bailey, Edwaid ?lei lipoid, Messrs. Lynett, Cummlngs, Comesss, Pitzsiinmoiis and Sando sat with the enndlibites on the platform. Mr Sando, when Introduced by Col rnel ritzsimmotiB "as the chairman of the meeting and your net congress man," was given a hoaity cheer. He contented himself with an acknowledg ment ef the committee's favor in nam ing him a chairman, and Introduced Captain Dot.iu y as the llrslspcaker. The captain was given a musing ova tion by bis fellow townsmen. It was the Hi at display of real enthusiasm so far In the evening's proceedings. He confined himself to thanking his neigh hois for their ireeptlon and tetlied af ter saying he wanted, llko' thein, to hear his colleagues. Mil. JENKS INTRODUCED. Mr Jenks was then Introduced and was received with long and loud linnd clapplng. He spoke for about three quaiters of ai hour. His delivery Is quick and continued. He speaks In a low, soft voice and argues i.itlier than ointes He began b asserting that the sov ereign veiiplc of this state had suf feied their sovereignty to be wrested from them, and that an oppoituiiity was now at hand for them to le-assert their soveieigntj. The action of the Qunjltes, Mr. Jcnks went on to bay, In attempting to foist the war, the tariff and tho money question upon the people us state issues, was simply for the purpose of dlveitlng attention from tho ie.il issues, the mismanagement of the affairs of tills state by the Re publican or Quay administration. The tl ree questions mentioned are In no wiv relevant to the present con ti over". . To have an Issue theio must be u dlsuu e There Ih no dispute about the war and therefore It Is not an Issue. Tho tin iff cannot be an Issue while theio J a Republican president In the chair, unless there should be a Demo cratic two-thirds majority In the sen ate, and In the light of piesent cir cumstances It Is vain to discuss the tailff as an Issue. The money ques tion conti oiled, as It Is, solely by Fed eral enactment, can not be a state Is sue. Then ptoceedlng to deal with whnt he claimed were the real issues, Mr Jenks piesented an analysis of the Re publican's "boasted" system of taxa tion by which, he said, they would have the people bellevo they took the taxes off the land and saddled It on the cor porations, but which In fact Is not at nil whnt It appears to be on the sur face, for when examined it Is shown that it limits the tax on corporations to five mills on the dollar, while the THE BEST For the Least Money, 30 C Per Can, $3.50 per Doz.

UNUSUALLY SERIOUS. The coming election ho characterized as an unusually serious affair and ad monished every man to do his full duty, as a member of this great co partnership. Republicanism, he snld, hud Fomo principles tending to the good ot tho common people, but Qunylsm, which now embraces tho Republican party of Pennsylvania, Is solely self-seeking. Ho would not charge Quay with nny dishonesty, ho snld, becauc he had no evidence against him. He would say, howevci, that In the last legislature laws weie "held up" until It was seen "what the old man thought of them." How It was possible tor Quay to havo profited fioin this suspension of legis lation wns then explained at length by tho spcnkei. The light ot suffrage Is sheet nonsense while this kind of thing Is going on, he declared. His only direct reference to the bolt ing Republicans was a lemark thnt a thlid of the pait wns In icvolt nnd while they may bo selfish, they ure veiy much In earnest. After telling his heaters that It wns their duty to vote for him, he concluded by -ujlng' "Do jour duty, nnd ou will be freemen within n year; fall and you will continue slaves of a machine, conscienceless as Satan Is." SOWDEN'S REMARKS. Mi. Sowden, aftei letnoving his col lar and tie and loosening up his shlrt ftont, oil of which provoked a cheer, pioceeded to show how the Democrats win In this state over eight yeuis and that theii last vlctoiy being In 1810, they weio due to win this eai He made comparisons of Paulson's admin istration eight yeats ngo with the pres ent ndmlnlstiatlon, regarding the ex penses of government, and then dealt out a lot of Swallow thunder In quite as forcible a manner ns docs the doctor himself. ' Colonel Stone, at Williams Grove, said the Republican patty should not be held responsible for nil laws that were Introduced at the last session, It being enough to hold It to account for such laws as were passed," said Mi. Sowden. ' Governor llnstlngs, In Phila delphia, said that tho lecent leglslatuie passed the most obnoxious and oppics slve of laws and he, the covet nor, in terposed a veto in one hundred and nlnetj-three of them ' In (oncluding, he paid n fitting trib ute to Captain DeLucj and his record as a soldier and citizen, which met with heaity applause. The last speaker of the evening was Hon Petei J. Hughes, of Phllndelphl i. the man who seconded the nomination of Captain Del.ncv at Altcona. Owing to the lateness of the hour he spoke for less than ten minutes He maintained that if the Demounts get out their normal vote In Pennsylvania this jear they will win. WANAMAKER'S AMBITION. Would Overthrow Quay That He May Advance to Position and Power The Seciet of His Refoim Movement. Hon. Peter J. Hughes, of Philadel phia, who Is In the city has foi eara been a keen student of Pennsylvania polities. Until be became a magistrate of thcclty of Philadelphia he was known as one of the best Informed political writeis of the state, his long expeiience as a, newspaper man In Philadelphia and as the Haulsburg coriespondcnt of pap-is jf that tlty giving him unu sual advantages foi obtaining Insldo In foi motion about politics and the men vi ho d licet them Whin asked for an opinio.i about the strength of the Swal low movement by a Tribune lepoitcr yestetday, he slid. "The Swallow movement Is peculiar in one icspect. The doctor appeals to tlike effect In ppoit. Ho Is either strong in a community or a veiy in significant factor. In this pait of tho stato J perceive that he has a good sized following and I would not be surprised if the northeastern putt of PennslvanU would give lilm more votes this jear than last. In other portions of tho state his vote will bo much smaller. ' It Is u matter of some sutiulse to me that the people of Pennsylvania have not read Dr. Swallow beter. As a leformer he Is not honest, neither is John Wanainaker. This will be dem onstrated If they ever icach positions of power. I don't think they will, how- ev or. "Mr. Wanainaker Is posing as a re former now because he thinks that's n. good way to dethrono Quav and make his way to a seat In the United States senate. No man In Pennsylva nia has done more than .Mr. Wana maker to debauch politics and those who have been In close touch with politics of this state for ten yeats know that this is true. "Ho Is to lug to cairy water on both shoulders In this campaign. In all of his speeches he Is very caieful to declnie that ho Is a Republican and always has been and Is metely engaged in tho dlsugreeable tusk of tooting bad spots out of the party. Why does be talk In that strain? Merely to keep his political lecord straight. He wants to create ull the mischief he can but keep Inside the partv bieastworks himself. If he doesn't vote tor Colonel Stona for governor I will miss my guess. "It would be embanasslng for Mr, Wanamaker to go before a Republican legislature and usk to bo sent to the United States senate lf It should ap pear thut he had voted against tho candidates of his paity. That accounts for his feverish desire to keep within party lines nnd by raising tho stand ard of revolt overthrow the man bo believes stands between him and posi tion and power. "Mr. Wnnnmakei believes that Penn sylvania Republicans ought to have a new leader nnd ho Is anxious that John Wunaniuker be the man." ARRIVED IN THE CITY. A. L.

Oeoige Sanderson last night moved to reconsider nctlon on tho amend ments, made at the previous meeting by Mr. Roche, nnd this suggestion was cauJed out.
