THE RESOLUTIONS.
Chairman Davis, of the resolutions

which were unonimously udopted:
First, The llcpuliliian ronvention of tlie Fir-t
Lejislatlve district unqiialitletlly endoises He
policy ot 0111 nation il government vvhicli has
gainetl our nation the admiration, iiinlltkme

fi'ltnccs of opinion as In the wImIciii nf Mime
of the legislation nuctril by the last legi-la-tine.
We a-seit that there has also been 11
pnsUtcnt tllorl made lij those opposed to te
publlean supremaij to prejutliie and mislead
the publlci by divotlng all their attention to one
or two bills which they euncelte 10 lie bat

A cotiinilttco wiih appointed lo escort
Mr. Oliver before the convention. Ho
was received wltli hearty cheers, 'nnd
made a brief address, In which lie
said he could not at that time find
words to expres his feelings of appre
ciation and gratitude for the nomina
tion which has Just been given him.
The battle was hard fought, he said,
and he hopes that any animosity which
may have arisen ns a lesult would bo
effectively wiped out, and those who
fought for supremacy will rally to the
support of the party candidate.
In his canvass, Mr. Oliver said he had
made but one pledge, and If elected, to
act at Hamburg as a Republican with
in the lines ot tho Republican party.
With respect to all other matters, ho
said, ho would not bo presumptous
enough to anticipate anything else.
His purpose In wanting to be in line
with the party was tliat ho realized
that nothing could be accomplished
otherwise, as the Democratic party Is
a hopeless minority as far as the legis
lature Is concerned, and to be of any
si-rvlcc to his constituents and the dis
trict at large, ho must be with the
majority,
D. Phillip Williams, who was named
as one of the state delegates, was
called on for a speech. He said those
who had placed confidence in him,
can depend upon his reliability to
properly represent them at Harrlsburg.
A motion, made by Thomas Ovvynn,
was unanimously carried to the effect
that all the representatives present
take off their coats, roll up their sleeves
and work for Joseph Oliver for repre
sentative. MR. REYNOLDS CALLED UPON.
Hon. T. Jeffereson Reynolds, the
present representative, was present,
and was called on for a speech. He was
seated in tho middle of the hall, and
when asked to come forward and ad
dress tho convention, remarked that he
felt tint it was his pleasure to "Go
'way back, and sit down."
"I sincerely trust, however," he said,
"that you have asembled here today
as loyal Republicans, and that the
majoilty vote shall rule, and that every
Republican in the First legislative dis
trict will rally to the support of the
party nominee and give him a rousing
majority next fall."
The secretaries and tellers then mnde
ii icpmt on the iitmber of votes cast for
the delegates and alternates to tho Re
publican slate convention. It whs as
follows:
For delegate D. Philip Williams,
1M10.. votes; Thomas K. Mills, 2131
