Though the machinations of the Win-amaker-GorJon-Graham
poii.ical syn

ator or to pve his friends any occasion
for serious concern about his re-election

lieved that within the few remaining
days of the political canvass for the
henatorrOiip sensational plays to the
Kalleries may he anticipated from this
m.urce. There is no doubt, however,
that the people have now become thor-c-uphly
acquainted with the despicable
and monstrous tactics that have been
reported to In this fisht as:a!nFt Senator

cam'paipn waited asaiiit the election
of Colonel Vii:iam A. Stone to the

resorted to are more darinsr and con

Fponsilde for his failure to pet the
supreme court judir-Fhln. which was
bestowed upon Judge Fell, for his sev
eral defeats to go as a delegate to He
publlcan national conventions and for
blocking his aspirations for the gov
ernorship and for the United States
senatorship. and more recently for his
humiliating turn down in his effort to
succeed himself in the district attor
ney's office. Gordon's suj pi rters, as is
well known, charge Senator Quay with
influencing Democratic leaders to de
feat him for the nomination for gover
nor at A;":-Titown.
These facts are all familiar to Pennsyl
vanlar.s, and It Is for these reasons
that he persecution of Senator Quay
Is generally looked upon as part of the
most desperate game of politics that
has ever been played in this or any
ether state In the 1'nion.
That Senator Quay should make the
appeal he did to the suprene court was
to be expected. The peculiar nature of
the testimony .that was put forth by
Graham, curiously kept private memo

THE APPEAL FOR jrSTICE.
Tn the petition filed by SenarorQuay.
Ms son Fvichard and C J. Haywood,
and upon which this writ was granted,
they, among other things, said:
Your petitioners respectfully pray
your honorable court to issue Its writ
ft certiorari to paid court of quarter
ressions to bring up said indictments
fr order that your honorable court may
deal with the same in such a way as
will enable them to secure what It is
impossible for them to secure In the
present position of affairs In the court.
Ii which said indictments are pending
tameiy. Justice and a fair and impar
tial trial which is guaranteed to th?ir.
by the constitution and laws of this
commonwealth, and, in support of their
raid prayer, aver as f- Hows:
That these prosecutions were Insti
gated and inspired chiefly by one James
Gay Gordon, late a Judge cf the court
of common pleas No. 2. cf Philadelphia
county, acting in concert with other
open and avowed po.iilcaJ enemies ot
raid Matthew S. Quay. That upon tha
failure cf the People's bank, about the
Uth da, of March, lsss. the said James
Gay Gordon, although at that-time a
Judge of said court, acted as counsel for
one James McManes, f resident of the
said People's bank, and thus obtained
possession of certain letters written by
your petitioner relating solely to their
own private business transactions and
of certain private memoranda alleged
to have been made by one John S.
Hopkins, now deceased, formerly cash
1 r of said bank.
FOIl POLITICAL PURPOSES.
That the said Jam.s Gay Gordon had
said letter and memoranda copied for
the purpose of using them hereaft-r
for political purposes, he. the said
James Gay Gordon, being thi n a candi
date for the nomination of the IK-mo-
. cratic party for the office of governor
of said commonwealth at the election
held on the second Tuesday of Novem
ber, 1SSS. That al houph th- sad James
Gay Gordon had possession of the in
formation contained in Faid lo'tt rs and
memoranda from about the 2 :h dy cf
March last, and although rz.u in'cma
tion was from said date also in the p"
session and knowledge of ore Thomas
W. Barlow, as receiver of said People's
bank, and as special first aw is ant dis
trict attorney of said county, yet no
complaint of any kind whatever was
made against your petitioners tiiti'
about the 3d day of OctoiK-r last, - her.
an affidavit was made upon In ferns I v
and belief by one Meyers, all-red to !e
a detective in the office of the district
attorney of this county (but who fai el
to appear upon the hearing of said
charges), upon which warrants were Is
sued charging your petitioners with the
offenses aforesaid. That said warrants
were issued shortly before the recent
state election, which invo'ved the elec-
f tlon not only of a governor, but of mem
bers of the legislature, who will be call
ed upon at their next session to rote for
Vnited States senator to succeed trw
present incumbent, the said Matthew S.
Quay, It belne then well known tha'
id Matthew S. Quay would be a can
didate for re-election to said office. In
Instigating and procuring the Issuing of
aid warrants said James Gay Gordon

vane ariM ths aafd MaTtksw 9.
j Quay, as is evidenced hy ths fart that
the said james uay uoraon puunciy
charged said Matthew S. Quay with
having been largely instrumental In pre
venting the nomination of him. the said
James Gay Gordon, for the office of
governor at the PenfcrHtic state con-
i vention held at Altooita prior to the said
! election. That on or about the 2Cd day
of November. the said James Gay
Gordon resigned from his office as
Judge.
IRREGULAR PROCEEDINGS.
That while said Indictment were
i being considered by the grand Jury cf
said county an application was made
by the district attorney for attach
ments against th cashier of a national
bank of Allegheny county and agains;
the cashier of a bank in Beaver. Pa., on
the ground that said persons, acting
under the advice of the regular counsel
of said banks respectively, declined to
bring the books of said banks to the
city of Philadelphia for examination.
Said application was rmt maje to the
Judge who had been regularly assigned
to hold, and who was then and there
holding the regular court of quarter
sessions which then and there had sole
Jurisdiction over said grand Jury and
of all questions relating to- the busi
ness and proceedings of said grand
J Jury, but was improj-erly and Irregu
larly made to the said James Gay Gor
don, who was on that day holding a
special session of the court of quarter
sessions for the trial of bail rases only.
Nevertheless, said James Gay Gordon
lrrtgularly and improperly heard said
application and peremptorily ordered
said witnesses to appear before said
grand Jury under penalty of an attach
ment for contempt. That a few days
later, on Wednesday, the 23d day of
Novemler. 19S. your petitioners were
notifed to appear in court No. 64S be
fore, the said James Gay Gordon for the
purpose of pleading or demurring to
the bills of indictment which had been
theretofore found against them, al
though Ihe said James Gay Gordon had
not been regulariy assigned to hold said
court, but by reason of his resignation
and retirement from the bench on the
day named for the appearance of de
fendants as aforesaid, said court was
without a regualrly assigned Judge to
hear pending cases.
GORDON'S PECULIAR ACTIONS.
That on the said 23 1 day of Novem
1. r. 1 H!v, the Hon. Thomas K. Finletter.
president judge of the court of common
pleas No. 3 tof which court the said
James Gay Gordon had been thereto
fore a member), appeared in said court
of quarter sessions and proceeded to
preside over said court, although he
was not the judge who had been duly
and regularly assigned to hold said
court. That one Thomas K. Finletter,
a son of the said Hon. Thomas K. Fin
letter. was at that time, and had been
theretofore, an assistant district at
torney of this county, and had been as
signed to the duty of taking profession
al charte of the above indictments la
conjunction with the district attorney.
That on the day last mentioned ynui
petitioners presented to the said court
their demurrers t- the bills of indict
ment Nos. 32S. 3.-S, 30 and 331 (copiei
of vvhiih are hereto attached), which
oemurrers were subsequently overruled
by the said Hon. Thomas K. Finletter
who rendered in connection therewith
the opinion hereto attached. That sale
opinion was largely based upon the er
roneous lefc-al proposition that a person
charged with P. supposed criminal of
fense has no right, under the constitu
tion and laws of this commonwealth,
to question the sufficiency of an indict
ment found against him, but must be
subjected to the disgrace, expense, in
convenience and peril of a trial before
a Jury, because after conviction he may
possibly be able to successfully raise
the question as to the sufficiency of
such an indictment upon a motion In
arrest of judgment.
That in said opinion overruling said
demurrers said judge In commenting
upon and condemning the action of
your petitioners and filing said demur
rers used language which was wholly
uncalled for. and which would natur
ally be interpreted by the community
as an expression of the belief, on the
part of said Judge, in the guilt of your
petitioners, and which netessarly tend
ed to excite undue prejudice against
them inthe minds of th" people in the
community and thereby to prevent
their obta n'.ng a fair and impartial
trial. That with the said demurrers,
jour petitioner. Benjamin A. Haywood,
presented a motion to quash said in
dictment No. 332 (a copy of which is
hereta sitached). That the said Hon.
Thomas K. Finletter, in his said opin
ion, decided that the facts urged in the
support of the motion to quash could
hereafter he presented in arrest of
judgment, and this, notwithstanding
the fact tat the act of assembly es
pecially provides that all such motions
must be i;iaX prior to plea pleaded.
UNDUE HASTE CHARGED.
That immediately after the rendering:
cf said of inion. to wit, on Thursday,
Iec. 1. application was made by the
oisirict attorney to said Judge to fix
the earlrst possible day for a trial of
said defendants, and. although said de
fendants, through their counsel, asked
for a reasonable time in which to have
an opportunity to have the books and
p;fpcrs of said People's bank examined
by experts, and although, as your peti
tioners are informed and llieve. "about
two months were required by the ex
perts employed by the district attorney
to examine the books and papers in so
fur as they related to said transactions
referred to in said Indictments, said
Judge peremptorily ordered that the
trial of your petitioners should proceed
on the Tuesday following, to wit, the
6ih day of December, thereby allowing
tut three working days for an exam
ination of said books and papers; and
said judge thereupon then and there
publicly stated, in effect, that your
petitioners would have all the time to
which they were entitled for such ex
amination of said looks and papers
upon their being produced In court up
on the trial of said case. Said order
was, however, subsequently modified
by said Judpe extending the time until
Monday. Ixh-. 12. on aerount of the cn
pagemcnt of one of petitioners' counsel
in the United States court, thereby al
lowing your petitioners' Tor said ex
amination of said books and papers
but nine working days: notwithstand
ing the fact, as has been previously
averred, that nearly two months were
required by the common wealth's ex
perts for such examination. While
makins such examination of said books
and papers the extierts employed by
your petitioners discovered that a larg
number of checks, notes, bills, papers
and memoranda forming part of the
records cf said People's bank were
missing and were locked up in the of
fice of the district attorney, and that
without an inspection , f pu;er
It wr.s absolutely impossible for them
to understand certain entries in the
books of said bank relating thereto.
Your petitioners, through their coun
sel, requested an opportunity to exam
ine said papers in the district attorney's
office and were peremptorily refuseJ
such permission. Your petitioners aver
that the said refusal by the court to
allow them proper time for an investi
gation and examination of said books
and papers and the said refusal by the
said district attorney to permit them
to examine said papers in his custody
constitute an absolute denial of Justice
to them.
PREJUDICE CREATED.
Tour petitioners aver that by reason
t t the said action of the said James
Gsy Gordon, while he was a Judge, and
by reason of the said action and deci
sion of the Hon. Thomas K. . Finletter,
whose affiliation with the said James
Guy Gordon Is well known, such preju
dice has naturally been created In the
body of the community against your pe
tl; loners that H will be Impossible for
tfcem to obtain a fair and impartial
frtal at this time In the said court of
quarter sessions for the county of
Philadelphia.
That it Is not and never has been
pretended by anybody that either the
commonwealth of Pennsylvania or said
People's bank or any other person ever
lost, or could have lost, one penny by
reason of any transaction referred tc
In said indictments, and that in none
of said indictments are the defendants,
or either of them, charged with any
Intent to defraud the said common
wealth or said People's bank or any
other person In any manner whatso
ever. Ncr were said prosecutions in
stituted or Inspired by any person or
persons on behalf of the commonwealth
or said People's bank or of any person
claiming to have lieen Injured In any
way by reason of any said supposed

QUAY'S POLITICAL ENEMIES.
That the further prosecution of said
Indictment Is now being unduly pressed
r.ot in the lnttrest of justice, but by a
conspiracy of the political enemies of
salJ Matthew S. Quay, for the sole pur
pose of unduly-influencing, prejudicing
and intimidating the members of the
general assembly In their choice ot a
successor to said Matthew S. Quay in
the senate of the United States; and
that to said end said conspirators are
causing to appear almost daily In the
various newspapers of this county li
belous, defamatory and malicious com
ments upon said case for the purpose ot
making It impossible for your petition
ers to obtain a fair and Impartial trial.
and are endeavoring by various unlaw
ful means to secure a disagreement ot
the Jury before which said cases will be
tried, if they fail to secure a convic
tlon. so that it is al this time Impossi
hie for your peiirloners to secure that
fair and impartial trial which Is guar
anteed to them and all other citizens by
the constitution and laws of this com-
jnenwea'th.
That by reason of the premises, and
for the further reason that your peti
tioner, Matthew S. Quay, is a candidate
tor the United States senate at the com
ing session of the general assembly of
fhe slate of Pennsylvania, the newspa
pers of the city of Philadelphia, with
,-ossibiy one exception, have been daily
.-ublishing such Inflammatory, scandal
ous, false and defamatory statements
relative to your petitioners and to the
aid charges that such undue prejudice
nas been excited in the public mind that
it is impossible for them at this time to
secure a fair and impartial trial upon
saiJ charges.
Senator Quay Is anxious that the case
be disposed of promptly, and with an
Impartial court lias no concern about
LU prompt acquittal.

JACK HORNER.
The Itlrh IMm That He Extracted
From Thai t hrlitmni Pie.
For tbe benefit of those who are not
quite little folks Agnes Carr Sage, in
Lippincott's Magazine, tells the origin
and history of some famous nursery
stories aud rhymes, among them "Tbe
Pleasant History of Jack Horner," con
taining "His Witty Tricks and Pleas
ant Pranks," for to it is set forth in a
very old chaplook. carefully preserved
in tbe Bodleian library .;
It appears that this worthy was stew
ard to an ahbot of Glastonbury. The
good abbot learned that his majesty
Henry VIII had seeu fit to be indiguaut
because tbe uiouks had built a kitchen
which he could not bnra down. Now, a
king's indignation was dangerous and
most be apjxased. Therefore the abbot
sent his steward. Jack Horner, to pre
terit the sovereigu with a suitable peace
offering. It took the form of a big and
tempting looking pie, beneath tbe crust
of which tbe transfer deeds of 12 man
ors were hidden.
But Master Jack had an eye for tbe
profit of No. I, and on the road lie
slyly lifted tbe crust aud abstracted the
deeds of the Manor of Wells. On his
return, bringing the deeds, be plausibly
explained that they Lad been given to
him by tbe king ; hence the rhyme:

HarrtsburB. Dec 20. Political events
; of the past week have so crowded upon
j the heeis of each other that one searee
j ly knows which to take up first. Per-
ziaps lue uiwi iimi L.mift vviu. ..... .
was the gathering of Democrats for
which John II. Fow. of Philadelphia,
was responsible. Fow is a unique char
acter. His Democracy does not welh
heavily upon his broad shoulders at
any time. He comes back to the house
this year with a nondescript sort of a
political standing. He was not only
the Democratic candidate for the leg
islature In his district, but he also had
the Republican, the Prohibition and the
Honest Government party nominations.
There are few more crafty politicians
In the state than Fow. Why he called
the Democratic members and senators
together probably no one but himself
will ever be truly certain. That the
meeting was called ostensibly to pro
mote the Wanamaker fusion scheme
far the organization of the legislature
and the election of a fusion candidate
for United States senator we all know.
That it was a most complete fizzle Is
also a fact. That it gave the fusion
scheme a terrible black eye is generally
admitted. And now where does Fow
comejn? There are those mean enough
to insinuate that Fow knew It was to
be a failure beYore it was called, and
that Fow la more than ever endeared to
the Republican leaders who will have
the distribution of the patronage on
"the hill." and .ho will also make up
the committee appointments for the
speaker of the house. All the Demo
crats who were deluded into coming
up here to attend Fo's fake fusion
meeting are anxious to see what good
committees Fow will be placed on.
Those who did not come are Just as
much Interested in the same subject.
Hereafter the Democratic members
propose to look out for themselves,
SrCCEPSFCL FUSION IMPOSSIBLE.
No one who understands the situation
has any idea that there Is the slightest
chance of successful fusion on either
the speakership or the senatorshlp. Not
only are the Ouffey leaders and the
Gurjon lieutenants Jealous of each
other, but nearly every member of the
Democratic delegation Is eager to get
recognition from the Republican speak
er, and they are all suspicious of each
sihers every movement. The fact that
none of the older members in the Dem
ocratic delegation believes the anti
Quay Republicans can show anything
like the number of votes necessary to
make up the fusion majority on the
speakership makes them all hesitate
about going Into a losing deal. '
Guffey has got the senatorial bee
buzzing under his sombrero at a lively
rate. He has already spent a fortune
in the canvass, and he is givMng out
some sort of an interview or signed
statement every other day in order to
give the Republicans the impression
that the Democrats are a unit for fu
ion. He has State-Chairman Carman
nelping him to create sentiment with
the same tactics. They are both talk
ing themselves hoarse. But Oarman In
his latest interview has hurt rather
than helped Gufey's cause. He tells
the Democrats that in view of the great
national political issues involved in the
election of a United States senator they
must not think or voting for any Re
publican for Quay's seat. They must
draw the line in the fusion negotia
tions when It comes to electing a mem
ber of the United States s nate.
This interview of Garman's has
brought the true sirnificance of the
present political situation right home
to the Republicans of Pennsylvania.
They see the Democrats standing firm
ly and loyally by their free trade, free
silver and antl-McKinley policy and
resolutely refusing to consider any
proposition from the anti-Quay Repub
licans to desert their Democratic stand
ard. The Democrats have called a
caucus to be held here on Monday, Jan.
2, and It will then become apparent
that the Wanamaker scheme cannot
be carried out. Republican senators
and members who have been here dur
ing the last week picking out their
seats and selecting their boarding
places for the session all report that
their constituents demand that there
shall be no weakening or wavering of
the Republican party lines In either th
organization of the legislature or the
election of a United States senator.
They all agree that any Republican
who fails to participate in the regu
larly called caucus of his party will !.e
politically ostracised, not only by thir
Republican Colleagues here, but by his
constituents at home.
FARR HAS THE CALL.
The contest for the Republican cau
cus nomination for speaker of the
house, which will be equivalent to an
election, has, In the opinion of many,
been practically decided. While Ward
R. Bliss, of Delaware; Charles E. Voor
hecs. of Philadelphia: Frank McClain.
of Lancaster, and William Marshall,
of Allegheny, are still in the race, all
indications point to an agreement
among the leaders of different elements
upon Representative John R. Farr, of
Lackawanna county. Farr, who Is
widely known as the advocate of com
pulsory education and of the free
school book legislation. Is a newspaper
man by profession. He has had the
experience of several terms in the
house and would make an acceptable
speaker. He has announced a platform
In which he says that if elected he will
favor a short session, that all elements
in the Republican party shall be treat
ed In a fair and manly manner, and
that it will be his aim to promote har
mony In the party. Farr voted for
Wanamaker for United States senator,
and on this account many radical Quay
men were loth to turn in for him for
speaVer. In line with the policy de
termined upon by the party leaders,
who wish to cement the Republican or
ganization, c!l hands will probably
soon recognize the availability of Farr
and give him cordial support. Senator
Quay dec-lares that he does not propose
to advocate the selection of any canr
didate for sreaker. but that he would
like to see the caucus unanimous in
its choice, fpcretary of the Common
wealth Martin was the first leader to
publicly declare for Farr for speaker,
and the Rjcks county delegation,
through Ranking Commissioner Glir
keson. quickly followed suit. Others
have s'nee been having themselves en
rolled. An ln:er-s!ing feature cf Fair's
cam-'hlacy Is ihat it tal eg into the Re
publican caucus In his Interest a num
ber f anti-Quay men. while the Quay
men will, cf cc.urse. all participate In
the caucus. As matters stand today it
Is m't li" e'y that there will be more
than four or five Republicans remain
out of the caucus on the speakership. I
The Wanamaker men are still back- '
lng Ccnercl Koontz, of Somerset,' for
rpeal-er. They have no Idea of making
much of a showing In the Republican
caucus, and their on'y hope of success
lies in pelting enough Republicans who,
wl'h the Democrats, can make up the
necessary 103 votes. If the Democrats
could all unite on Koontz. which la very
improbable, they would then have to
get 23 Republicans to remain out of the
Repub'lcan caucus and make an alliance
wbh the Democracy, which is an utter
Impossibility.
The Rej uUk arswM elect t-ielr speak? 1
er, probahly John I'.. Farr of Lacka

be sent to the I'n'ted States senate; aud

TEUE TO THEIR PAETY.
Wanamaker Aicent in the Interest of
Alliance With the Democracy Fall
to Hrenk Throuuli tbe Linen of the
Grand Old 1'arty.
(Special Oorresponder.ee.)
Philadelphia, Roc 20. With the as
sembling of the legislature but a few
days off, the Republican members of
both the senate and the house realize
that they will shortly be called upon to
show their party colors and assert their
Republicanism In assuming control of
both branches of the general assembly.
In the name of their party. That this
will be done and that both senate and
house will be organized on straight
Republican lines. and that the
Republican caucus will name the
next United States senator from
Pennsylvania id apparent to all
who have come In touch with Re
publican senators and representatives
within the last week. The spectacle of
Democratic dissensions presented at
Harrisburg the other day. when the
Gordonites and the Guffeyites were at
each other's throats, and when John
H. Fow's fusion conference was given
a chilling frost by the action of Guf
fey and his lieutenants in keeping
Democrats away from the meeting, has
impressed Republicans everywhere. The
latter realize that this Is a year when
It Is Important that there shall be Re
publican harmony. No better evidence
of this fact could be given than the' dis
mal failure the Wanamaker agents
have made in their attempts to get
Republicans to declare that they will
not go Into the Republican caucus, and
that thev will not support Senator
Quay for re-election. Of course, the
few anti-Quay men who were elected
avowedly against the senior senator are
not expected to vote for him. With but
few exceptions, scarcely half a dozen,
however, they will go into the Republi
can caucus. Up to date the Wanama
ker agents have not gotten a singlo
Republican senator or representative to
declare against Senator Quay who had
not been classed as opposed to him.
With the purpose of creating the Im
pression that there is a great sentiment
against Senator Quay, the Wanamaker
literary bureau Is flooding the state
with articles containing interviews with
men like JefTeries of Chester. Sexton of
Montgomery and Stahle of Blair, not
one of whom was on the Republican
ticket, but all of them were elected by
combinations of the Swallow and Denw
ocratic vote. To these they have added
one Republican state senator, Henry, of
Philadelphia, and only four straighout
Republican members of the houe
Coray of Luzerne, Mackey of Lacka
wanna. Allen and Laubach of Philadel
phia, the latter being an employe In the
shoe department cf Wanamaker's store.
These were all elected as anti-Quay
men and are not Included In the futi
mates which give Senator Quay a bi4
majority In the Republican caucus. D-.
Mackey has announced that he wbl
vote for John R. Farr. ot Lackawanna,
the harmony candidate for speaker, as
will others who are outspoken anti
Quay men. Followers cf both Martin
and Magee have been importuned by
the Wanamaker emissaries to declare
against Quay. or. at least, decline to
go Into the Republican caucus, hut the
have steadfastly refused to do any
thing of the kind.
A number of leading Republican
members of both the senate and the
house have been in this city during the
last few days, and they have all ex
pressed themselves In the most emphat
ic terms as to the sentiment In the Re
publican party on this question. Sena
tor James O. Mitchell, of Jefferson
county, than whom there Is probably
no closer friend of Governor-elect Ston-;
in the state senate, spoke freely when
asked his views on this matter.
A POLITICAL CONSPIRACY.
"The motives that prompt the perse
cution of Senator Quay by thes; behind
this so-called conspiracy case," said he,
"are understood by the people In r.iy
section of the state. They realize that
this is but part and parcel of the polit
ical campaign which has been vvased
by the retainers of Wanamakerlsm dur
ing the last three years. Republicans
everywhere recognize that Senator
Quay is charged with responsll.ill:y
for blocking the political ambitions of
a coterie of politicians, whone disap
pointments and resentments are given
vent to in these proceedings. It Is rU
dlculous to assume that any consider
able number of men can be inlu need
by the- actions of these disgruntl 'd in
dividuals, and it is quite absurd to
Imagine that members of the bgixla
ture will for a moment think cf cepart
Ir.g from the time honored practices
and custcms of the Repub lean party
In the organization cf the general as
sembly. The party spiiit in my dKri:t
Is o strong that If any man ele-ted
upon the Republican ticket shru'd go
to Harrlsburg and fail to pirt!cpat tn
and abide by the action cf the regu'ar
Republican party caucus J- would re
turn home to his conrii uen:s at hit
periL"
Another Influential rin'w-r of th.r
Senate and a formidable candidate for
president pro tern, of tli.-t bcoy, Sen
ator William P. Snyder, cf Ches er
county, was quite as en phytic l:j dis
cussing the Fame rub'rHt.

ture vl ho was elected upon the Repub
lican ticket can consistently or honor
ably abstain from participating in a
caucus of Republicans, either upon the
organization of the house or senate.
I the selection of a Republican candl-
date for the United States senate, or
j the consideration of any other question
in which vital matters of party policy
are involved. Every Republican sena
tor or representative sent to Harrisburg
i3 commissioned by his party to act for
and represent the Republican voters of
his district f r the advancement of the
Interests of the Republican party. Any
man sr d-f-ntei who frills to co-oper
te with bis r.-.v'ublt.-an colleagues, and
who is riot vi:.'ing to abide by the ac
tion of a r-irjoii y of recuiarly chosen
and acvredit-.d R.-pubT'can memljers or
senator b "nrr.ts a guerrilla, and tan
no longer be Considered nor treatci as
a Repulican. Hf H recreant to hi
party's trust and disloyal t-v the Repub
lican ori;arization, whiih honored him
with his nomination and confided in his
Integrity ana loyalty to the prlncii lea
cf Republicanism. There is not a par
ticle of doubt that both houses will he"
organized without the slightest dif
ficulty upon Republican i.nes, and that
Colonel Quay will be re-elected to the
United States senat-.'-
Among those prominently mentioned
for the speakership of the hou.-e is
Representative William C. Krep. of
Franklin. Mr. Kreps is recognised as
a Republican of the dyed in the wool
brand, and despite the fact that In for
mer jvars Franklin has been inclined
to favor independents. Kreps ran ahead
of his tbket this year, ar.d the county
gave the nhoie Republican ticket mag
nificent support.
FOR STALWART REPUBLICANISM.
"I am a stalwart Republican," said
Reprerentative Kreps, "and I believe
that the house will be organized in
strict accordance with stalwart Re
publicanism, ity name has been men
tioned In ronn.Vtion with the speaker
ship and I appreciate the compliment
that has been paid me by the kind
things that have been said in the news
papers and by my colleagues. Of
course I shall abide by the action of
the caucus, and if I shall fail to re
ceive the votes of a majority I shall
gracefully sufrport the successful can
didate. I am satisfied from inquiry 1
have made in connection with my can
didicy that there can not possibly be
tnni than half a dozen so-called Re.
publican members of the house who
have any sympathy with or are se
riously considering the question of fu
slon with the Democrats. I am sur-
that when the time arrives for actii n
even these few disgruntled niemlers
will be found supporting the caucus
nominee for speaker."
"This will lie my first sess'on In the
legislature," remarked Rer.resentatlv?
Horace J. Thompson. "I come from
that rock ribbed center of Repub'lean
ism. Indiana county. I know that If 1
failed to take part in any Republican
caucus that might be called during my
term I could not expect any further
honors at the hands of Republicans of
my county, where the Repub'lean m
Jority Is larper than the Democratic
vote. 1 have talkfd with a number of
members of the house from different
sections of the state, many of whom I
have conversed with during my visits
to this city. I have not met a single
Republican member that has not sai 1
he proposes to participate in the K
publican caucuses on both the speaker
ship and the I'nited States senatorshlp
and abide by the action of the major
ity. There can be no mistaking the
sentiment of the Republicans of Penn
sylvania, as expressed at the last gen
eral election. They were determined
that the Republican party and its prin
clplrs should tilumi h. as evidi-nrrl
by th" splcrd'd vce cast for the Re
publican n nin e for governor. Co'.ort"!
William A. K:n. aid by the large
Republican mnj- ii'y In b th the senate
and the houre. They look for us to
stand by true and stahvr.rt Republi
canism." HUMPHREYS'
