The Western farmers are now bus
ily engaged in planting one of the
largest areas of corn on record, with
tho stimulating assurance that the
big Republicau victory of next No
vember will bring them good prices
for the crop.
The Republicans of Tennsylvauia
having spoken, through their ac
credited representatives at Harris
burg, the proper thiug for every
member of the party in the State to
do, from this time until the St. Louis
Convention, is to work to secure his
nomination. Blizzard.
If report speaks truly Te?la talked
five miles through a mountaiu recen
tly, and expects soon to be able to
send a message by way of the inter
ior of the earth. The idea of such
achievements is no looger received
with skepticism. If they come they
excite curiosity, but not surprise.
Since the Cuban war began the
colonial debt of the island has beeu
increased by $305,000,075. The
previous debt was $163,551,050,
making a total of $468,552,025. The
idea that the island can be induced
to tagger along peaceably under this
burden fs peculiarly Spanish, which
is to say harsh and unstatesmanllke.
The Montreal inventor who claims
to have produced a gun by which
two men can fire 260,000 shots a
minute, without an explosive, and
with range of 6000 yard, fails to
say how he is to keep up the supply
of ammunition. The secrecy sur
rounding the in vention.like that of the
Keely motor, is probably its Btrong
point.
Owing to the opposition of the
Secretary of Agriculture at Washing
ton, it is almost impossible for Con
gressmen to secure the distribution of
seeds to their constituents, and none
will be distributed in the northern
states until after May 1st, and then
only in small quantities to persons
whose names are given to the Con
troller at Philadelphia by members of
Congress.
The re-nomination of Congressman
Arnold by the Republicans of this
district bas practically been made, be
having the instructions of both
Clarion and Elk counties, and do op
position in his own, Clearfield county,
and so it remuins but for the district
conference to endorse the choice.
Mr. Arnold can well afford to go be
fore the people of the 28th district
on the record which be has made in
the House during the past winter,
and there is every reason to believe
the voters will endorse it by a major
ity far greater than the pbenominal
one of two years ago.
The situation that ensued after the
incoming of the present Adruinstra
lion uas ueen aptly described as one
in which the people saw "the opera
tions of industries interrupted, banks
failing, great commercial houses un
able to meet their obligations, credit
eeriouuly impaired, mills and factories
closod, and thousands of laborers
thrown out of employment, and
state of panic aud business disorders
prevailing in every part of the coun
try." And this is not a Republican
statement of the case, either, but I
literal quotation from Secretary Car
lisle's speech at Chicago.
School Directors' Convention.

REPUBLICAN STATE CONVENTION.
Two CongTfssinrii-at-Larjrc Nominated
Electors ami Delcpatcs-at-Lariro,
Named, ami District Electors and
Delegates Endorsed (nay Endorsed
lor President.
The Republican Slate Convention
met at Harricburg last Thursday and
proceeded at once to business Ex
Speaker Boyer was made temporary
chairman, and Auditor General My
liu permanent chairman. The pre
liminary work of the convention was
gone through with very quickly, and
the convention adjourned to give the
different committees time to arrange
their business and report. At 1:30
p. m. the convention was again as
sembled, and after a few minor con
tests were settled, candidates for Con
gress at-Large were named and nom
inated. Hon. Galusba A. Grow of
Susquehanna couuty, was unanimous
ly re-nominateil, and his running
mate will he Hon. Samuel A. Daven
port, of Erie, and thus has the great
northwest been recognized. The
election of EcIectors-at-Earce and
Delegates-at-Large was a matter of
short work, as was also the confirm
ing of the nominations by the dis
trict conferences for these places.
The list-appears below. With the
exception of a little breeze which
Congressman "Jack" Robinson suc
ceeded in stiring up for a few miuutes
the Convention ran along very
smoothly, and throughout the delib
erations were quite interesting. The
State Chairmanship contest between
Frank Willing Leach and Deputy
Attorney Elkin, was happily settled
by Senator Quay consenting to retain
the place until the candidates can
unite uponja choice. The endorse
ment of Senator Quay for the Presi
dency was unequivocal and hearty,
the conveution cheering viciferously
the mention of bis name at every
point.

THE PLATFORM.
"For fidelity to tho principles of Ra
publicanism, Pennsylvania holds the
nrst ranK among all the States. Year af
ter year it lias returned eroat majorities
for the candidates of that nartv. with no
seltish demands for recognition of any of
,w,unuv.u.ousi.a a iituiuuat canuiuaie.
The time has come whon the State which
has so long and laitbfully led the Repub
lican column may justly and properly
miuiuii tin own preierence lor ine Kepub-
ii.-uu tiuiuiunuuu iwr mo rrusiuency, in
the presentation of the Honorable Mat
thew Stanley Quay, ihe Republicans not
alone of Pennsylvania, but of the entire
union, win recognize ono or tueir fore
most leaders wise in counsel, and bril
liant and able in action, at onco the tvpe
of the American citizen, scholar, soldier
and statesman.
"first of all nationul issues stands pro
lection, and first among its advocates
have been tbe Republicans of Pennsyl
vania. We believe in protection as a right
to all American industries, but as a spec
ial favor to none. It should be neither
partial, sectional nor hypocritical ; it
should be as nearly as possible equal aud
universal. We are not pledged to any
schedules, but we demand a restoration
of the policy of protection ; and we
plodge it as soon as the Republican party
shall be fully restored to power iu the
Executive and Congressional depart
ment of the government ; aud it shall be
restored equitably to the farmer and the
miner, to the manufacturer and artisan.
"Wo demand thb restoration of that
wise policy of reciprocity which was
framed by James G. Blaine and adopted
by the wise aud beneficent administra
tion of President Harrison, to the great
benefit of the commerce of the country,
and which has been abandoned by the
present Democratic administration.
"We approve the policy of national
1rotectiou to our ship-owners and ship
milding interests by discriminating du
ties in favor of American shipping, in
ordor that the American Hag may be re
stored to the high seas.
"The Kopublicau party has alwavs
maintained the national honor and credit.
It enforced the resumption of specific
payments. It kept faith as to every debt
created for tho preservation ot the Union,
and has paid the greater part ot it in ac
cordance with the spirit and the letter of
tlie laws under winch it had been con
tracted. It largely reduced the interest
charges upon the balance of the debt by
refunding at lower rates. It submitted
lor the lluctuation aud inadequately se
cured notes of the Stale banks a uniform
national currency of stable value, and of
equal purchasing and debt-paying
power.
"Faithful to its record, believing that
the people are entitled to tho use of the
Pest money, and anxious to restore and
preserve the industrial and commercial
prosperity ot the Union, the Republican
party favors international bimetallism,
aud until that can bo established upon a
secure uasis opposes tho coinage of sil
ver, except upon government account,
and demands the maintenance ot tho ex
isting gold standard of value.
"There should be no statute of limita.
lion against a grateful recognition by tho
government of thu services and sacrifices
of the soldiers and sailors who preserved
ine niioii. e denounce present ad
niiiiiMiauon oi ine I'euston Bureau lor
its betrayal of tho interests of these he
roes, and its attempt to nullify existing
laws.
"We believe iu the euactmeiit of such
restrictive legislation as will admit to
our shores only thoso iinml jranta who
have the capacity and desire to become
good American citizens.
"We renlll rm every declaration In fa
vor of tho State aiding in the Improve
ment of the channel of the Dcleware
river, so that Pennsylvania may have a
free and unobstructed highway for com
merce now carried on by the steamship
of the greatest draft, which would enable
us to compete with our sister States on
the Atlanlic coast in doing business with
tho outside world.
"Wo congratulate tho administration
of Governor Hastings upon its wise do
termination in keeping expenses within
their proper limits, and yet remembering
that it rellect-s the intere'sta and views of
a grent and progressive State. It is Just
ly entitled to tho continued confidence of
tlie Republicans and the poople of Penn
sjlvania. "We reaffirm the declarations contain
ed in tho State platform of l!!,", looking
to needed reforms in State and municipal
government, and to the purification of
elections and tho exercise of tho election
franchise. We earnestly recommend to
tho consideration of the next Legislature
the several reform bills promulgated by
tho Republican Stato committee and re
quest tho Republicans of both hnusos to
itivo them favorable consideration and
support, and such other bills as may be
introduced at tho next session of the
Legislature in line with tho principles of
reform."

It is not a miracle. It won't cure ev
