seat and tend the following paper:
- ROCHE OP REPneANTAIIVEs, •
-January 10,
We, the • undersigned, Republican
members of the House of Representa
tives of the Commonwealth of Pennsyl
vania,' having declined to attend the
caucus of our party friends, held for the
purpose of making nominations of per
sona to till ofelees• of this House, and
having up to this time 'withheld our
support from the nominee of said caucus
for the position of Speaker, desire to lay
before this body, our immediate 00415tite
neatly and the people of the 'State, the
reasons which have Influenced our no-
Hon. We have beim opposed to
the election of tile candidate for
Speaker . presented by I the mu
cus above :referred to because wo
believed and still believe that the will el
the people and Interests of the Republi
can party at this time In lids State ea
mond the election .of a Speaker- with,
among others, the following qualifica
tions: First, one who is in all respeeti
frog from responsible connection with
Vag. legislation of this body considered
elfensive to the people; second, one
whole record and life alma hint to be
In -foyer of reforming the abuses that
have crept into the mintagemen t °raffia rs
in this State, and of retrenching hi all
practicable ways the expenditures of the
Commenscsalth,• third, one who has not
been identified in a way that would be
likely to effect, bin official action with any
corporation hi the State, that has hereto
fore shown a disposition to monopolize
privileges to exercise powers not granted
by., the charter, and to control legis
lation by Improper influences . : fourth,
one wbo would so conntituto Commit
teed of this Home, and so direct its or
boa, as to ckrry IMO effect in good faith
the will of the party to which we. belong,
as exprmed at he late Convention held
at Williamsport., In favor or the passage
of a Re* railroad law- and,ijudging the
cuodidate for Speaker:lAP Permed by a

from disruption by war and to which a
patriotic people look, for, • wise :govern
meta hi peace, , _
Our temporary separation from those
with whom_we hav'pheretolbre acted has
been painful to um:- !The step wan taken
In the heel place from no feeling of di,
appointment or revenge, no disposition
to be. factious, no intention of becoming
disorytaahers; but we claim that we have
been actuated wholly by a high sense of
duty. 7 to ourselves, our orinstituentivend.
to the party whose boat Interests weltavu
alwais tried to serve. At no time has a.
thought been entertained by soy one of
the undersigned of misting a single vote
under any poesibte circumstances for a
candidate supported by the party called ;
Democratic. Our 'whole purpose froth
the beginning has been to secure time
forriaectinn on the part of the majority
of our own party, hoping that on sober
thought they would coo the mistake they
had made and hasten to correct it, and
give time for the people to express them
stares as that those who are but their
servant. could not help being made no
quaintwkinith their voice, and though it
might ho-witting to yield to the popular
demand. Minorities have responsibilities
as well as majorities!, and usenet, we feel
that we hero but discharged our-duty.
In tile. hope that a change would beef
''forted by a little delay, we have net been
disappointed. The millibars toe the
apeakerahip nresenksi by. the majority
has not been witridiawn, as wo bad doped
he would be, but he has given .us such
Pledges and utterances that we feel we
have gained substantially the olifect we
aimed at, and that - our course will be
fully juntided by the prudent and Indo
pendent character of legislatitin that the
party in power in this Rouse will enact
during the puissant rosnion. Not having,'
therefore, any further end to gain that
will justify a longer delay, and desiring
that the puttee Ist organized as greedily ;
as possible, that the public business may;
be transacted, we • will bow respectfully
to the will of the majority.
