ns a committee on resolutions, who re
ported the following, which was
adopted:
Tho Independent Democratic convention
of Lackawanna county assembled today,
icpeats and affirms the promises and dec
larations of purposes contained in tho
platform of its state convention held In
Kile In 1!KL
We recognize the necessity of cleansing
our commonwealth from tho stain that
has como upon her by tho unparalleled
corruption of tho Boss Rule of Quny, and
his subservient dishonest tools, and do
nounco thfe corrupt methods by which
that rule debauches .Hie legislature, and
dominates every department of stnte af
fairs for the purpose of securing "plums"
for himself and his retainers, in total
disregard of the Interests of the honest
people ot this state, Democratic and Re
publican. Wo welcome with satisfaction tho army
of honest Republicans in our common
wealth now matching on with the mighty
hostp of Democracy In tho endeavor to
onco again, redeem tho state from tho
htlgina place upon hot- by tho dominant,
corrupt wing of the Republican party
and we predict that in Hon, Robert E.
Paulson wo have that fulthful, tried and
patriotic leader who will carry the peo
ple's b'apnor to a triumphant issue.
We congratulate the Democratic party
in Lackawanna county upon the splendid
victory achieved In tho election 'of the
ticket In !K)l and pledgo our untiring ef
forts to elect the ticket this day nomi
nated, and for this purpose we ask tho
co-operation of all fair minded citizens of
the county of Laukawanmi.
Wo deploro tho unsettled state of the
anthraclto coal industries and can only
hope thnt un agreement on tho issues
will be speedily reached, peace and Jus
tice will prevail and that labor and cap
ital will go hand and hand- together to
tho mutual benefit of each, always rec
ognizing the pitnclple that the status of
the worklngman Is tho best Jndox to tho
prosperity of a country.
The temporary organization, was
made poriiiunent by unanimous consent
nnd Chairman Flynn called for nomi
nations for orphans' court' judge,
ORPHANS' COURT JUDGE.
ThomaB Moore, of South Scranton,
nominated T, P. Hoban and B. D,
O'Reilly named Hon. AT, F, Sando. The
vote was Hoban, 112; Sando, 4. Mr.
Uoban'H nomination was then made
by acclamation. ,
Chairman Flynn relinquished the
rlialr to P. F. Lynett and galng on the
lloor nominated Hon. William' Connell
for congress In tho following speech:
I rise to placo In nomination for th
jmc of congressman for the Tenth Cou
hresilonal district a man bo broad, o
liberal nnd so just that nil parties, nil
neet and nil peoples may claim him. Bin
life Iiab been a record of devotion to the
interests ot tho district ho has repre
sented, In nil matters that liava per
tained to tho publlo good he has hud
tho rourago to stand up for what ho has
considered right and Just nnd proper, re
gardless of personal consequences or the
temporary unpopularity of his nctlon,
Sprung from the rank ot tho people,
ho has worked nnd tolled, suffered nnd
sacrificed with those who best know what
that means, and having dona that, he bus
never lost his sympathy for them. With
that sympathy always active, hla heart
and hand have always been open to needs
of individuals nnd communities, and no
good cause has aver appealed to him in
vain. Far-cclng and resourceful, lie bus
been tho lender In planting Industries In
our midst that glvo employment to thous
ands of our boys and girls, nnd young
men nnd younc women,
Generous, fair and Just, his employes
Invo him, trust him, and stand by him on
all occasions. Although well along In
yenrs. his Judgment Is as sure nnd his
mind iiB clear and bright ns It has ever
been. Such n man docs not often llvo
to brighten tho lot of any community.
It Is our opportunity now to show our
appreciation of a character such as his,
to do honor to a man tho peer of any
lit the nation, to honor ourselves nnd tho
nation by losing sight ot party lines for
tho time 'being, nnd, taking advantage
ot an opportunity that may never occur
to us nguln, It Is my high privilege, gen
tlemen, to placo In nomination for this
exalted office, your friend, my friend and
tho friend ot tho people, Hon. William
Connell. ,
Do you seek for a precedent Mn this
matter. It you do, go back with me to
the time when tho lamented and beloved
Judge Gunster was renominated by the
Democrats of this district for Judge.
What was tho action of tho Republican
party at that time. Recognizing his
ability, his Integrity nnd his pnst honest
services, they- dropped nil partisan feel
ing and made him their candidate also.
Who became responsible for this action
and made It possible. The man whoso
name I present to you today. Aro wo
afraid to do what the Republican party
has dared to do.
The nomination was unanimously
made amid cheers and a great display
of enthusiasm.
