Colonel McCIure Gives the Democracy a
Shock by Predicting the Triumphant
Election of the Republican Candidates
Before They Are Named.
(Special Correspondence.)
Harrisburg, Aug. 22. There Is a
great crowd of stalwart Republicans In
town, all eager to be on hand when the
state ticket is nominated on Thursday
next. It is going to be a typical Re
publican gathering, full of enthusiasm,
party fervor and patriotism. The
streets are already thronged with a
good natured, cheering crowd, with the
partisans of the several candidates all
anxious to make a demonstration in
favor of their respective favorites. The
hotels and other public buildings and
many business places and private resi
dences are gaily decorated with flags
and bunting, and on the sidewalks and
in the hotel lobbies and the headquar
ters there are many soldiers, some of
them in full uniform, fresh from Camp
Meade, which is but a few miles down
the road from this city. The presence
of these military men, among them are
many who served In the Cuban and
Porto Mean campaigns and have Blnce
been musteied out from the federal
service, Is full of significance. It means
that they are all Interested in the
work of the forthcoming convention.
They expect to see one of their com
rades in arms honored by the Repub
lican party of the old Keystone state
next Thursday. They have heard of
the proposed nomination of Lieutenant
Colonel James Elder Barnett, the act
ing commander of the famous 'fight
ing" Tenth regiment, and they are
here to show their interest in him and
their desire to see him named for state
treasurer.
The nomination of Colonel Barnett
is now assured. And that he will
sweep the state by an immense ma
jority is certain. His regiment will
reach Pittsburg in a few days, and
there is no doubt that a great ovation
awaits them. As to the balance of the
ticket, Josiah R. Adams, of Philadel
phia, for the superior court, has prac
tically a walkover, and for Justice of
the supreme court J. Hay Brown, of
Lancaster, Is in the lead. Judges
Archibald, Morrison, White and Wal
lace and former Attorney General Pal
mer are also proposed for supreme
judge.
STALWARTS IN CONTROL.
The convention will be absolutely In
the hands of the stalwart element of
the party. The regulars, with the ls
Bues clearly defined, carried the pri
maries by overwhelming majorities
wherever the insurgents put up can
didates, with tae exception of in about
three counties outside of Allegheny
and Philadelphia. In Allegheny no ef
fort was made to dispute the power of
the Magee-Klinn organization to name
the delegates in the districts which
they usually carry, and in the Quaker
City there was an agreement which
gave to the Martinltes a certain num
ber of districts without a contest,
though this number was much smaller
than the Martin men claimed.
The outlook for the election of the
whole ticket by unprecedented ma
jorities is most gratifying. The Demo
cratic party is demoralized. The sound
money men have bolted Creasy, tire
free silverite who was placed on the
ticket for state treasurer by the orders
of Colnnel Guffey to please the Bryan
ites. While the disgruntled insurgents
have been praising Creasy, in the hope
of compelling the stalwarts to show
them some consideration at the state
convention, they all know that Creasy
is not a vote winner and that he will
not have his own party vote back of
him on election day.
Some idea of the feeling as to the
prospects of a sweeping Republican
victory in Pennsylvania this fall may
be gleaned from an editorial which
Colonel A. K. McCIure printed In the
Philadelphia Times last Friday.
While this publication was overflow
ing with unusual frankness it was re
ceived witn outbursts of disapproval
and disappointment from the Demo
cratic lenders and sympathizers. It
was the first candid statement of fact
as to Pennsylvania politics that has
been gotten from a newspaper carry
ing the Wanamaker advertisement in
Philadelphia for many days. All these
journals are industriously telling their
readers what a great man Is CreaBy,
and how the people are falling over
themselves to ret into line to vote
for him. it it the same old story that
was heard throughout the campaign
for poor old Mr. Jonks, who, it will
be recalled, ran for governor last year,
with the full prestige of the advertis
ing subsidized newspapers booming
liim daily and nil the other influences
of the insurgent Republican organiza
tion at hjs br-.ck. Mr. Jenks now knows
the value the people place on these bar
gain counter organs and what influence
they do not possess.
M CLLRE'S CANDID ADMISSION.
With this whole choir daily harp
ing on Creisey's strength, it Is, in
deed, refreshing to read Colonel Mo
dule's breezy und convincing way of
brushing them ali to one side.
In didcussMg the probable nominees
of the Republican state convention
Colonel Mct'lure said:
"The nomination for Btate treasurer
shaped itself. It happened to come
Quay's way, and in that he was for
Innate. The record of the heroism of
the Tenth regiment in the Philippines
stands out single from all the others
alike In sacrifice and achievement In
tho bloody conflict with a barbarous
foe and de adly climate in the far easr.
Had Colonel Hawkins lived he would
likely have preferred to take his seat
in the senate to which he was elected
two years ago, but If he had chosen
o prefer the nomination for state
treasurer no political combinations

leaders would prefer another, but
knowing that they nugnt as wen uy
the moon as to start a tight against
him, his nomination will be made with
practical unanimity, and it Is most un
fortunate for. Democratic Reformer
Creasy that he has to buck against
the buzz-sav record of the glorious
Ttuth regiment."
WILL W3 A CLEAN SWEEP.
"It gos without saying," continued
Colonel McCIure, after making com
plimentary references to J. Hay Brown
and Josiah R. Adams, whose nomina
tions for the supreme and 6uperlor
courts, respectively, he predicts, "that
the Republican state ticket will be
elected. The people would willingly
strike a revolutionary blow If the De
mocracy of the state commanded the
respect it once did as a minority party,
but the independent leaders are un
willing to develop their lines and
strencth in an off year battle to aid
the Democrats in their visible decay.
"The election, therefore, will prac
tically trc. by default because the people
of Pennsylvania, regardless of factional
interests or prejudices, believe that a

There can be no Democratic victories
in loyal states until there shall be a

its own record of nearly a century In
favor of extending our possessions and
maintaining honest money."
The Pittsburg Dispatch, which op
posed Governor Stone in the last cam
paign, is not giving the Insurgents
much encouragement. Commenting
upon Barnetfs letter In refuslne the
colonelcy of the Tenth regiment, it
says:
"The reason which Lieutenant Col
onel Barnett gives will be recognized
as a thoroughly good one. He and his
brother officers desire that the Tenth
shall be known as Colonel Hawkins'
regiment during the full time of Us
federal service. It may occur to some
that Barnett'8 decision may deprive
him of the rank of colonel only for a
short time and that he Is certain to
attain that position as soon as th
regiment Is reorganized as a command
of the National Guard of Pennsylvania.
There is little doubt, however, that
Barnett has put aside the only chance
he will ever have to become colonel
of the Tenth regiment. It seems to
be assured that he will be made the
Republican nominee for state treas
urer and that he will thereupon retire
from the cllltary service. He puts
aside fie office for good and his sac
rifice Is. therefore, greater than that
made by his subordinates of the staff,
who are justly expectant of promotion,
if they desire it, in the National Guard.
"It is one of the pleading revelations
of the latter that, wbl' Colonel Haw
kins and Lieutenant ionel Barnett
were considered opposing candidates
for the nomination of treasurer, and
while politicians here at home were
speculating on the feelings of. rivalry
that must be animating those two men.
they remained the most cordial of
friends, facing the perils of war as
brothers in spirit as well as in arms.
The words of admiration and love of
Hawkins uttered by Barnett have a
ring of the true metal in them.
"Lieutenant Colonel Barnetfs letter
shows that Colonel Hawkins was
wounded by his failure to receive a
promotion for his services In Luzon,
such ns was .granted to most of the
colonels of the volunteer regiments In
that campaign. He did not desire this
promotion for his own sake, but his
failure to obtain it made him fear that
the people of Pennsylvania might be
led to think that he had not fulfilled
his whole duty In the service of his
country. Th'i fear was more bitter to
the true soldier than the disappoint
ment of a personal ambition. Lieuten
ant Colonel Barnett evidently shares in
the chagrin resulting from this neglect
to promote a deserving officer, for he
says: 'The laurel wreath came to
others, but not to him.' It is not yet
understood In this state why Colonel
Hawkins was 'passed, by,' as Barnett
puts it. but it will be known some of
these days. The people of Pennsyl
vania have a right to know, for they
have the utmost confidence that It was
not by reason of any shortcomings on
the part of the Tenth's brave colonel."

The New Mayor of the Quaker City Shows
Force of Character in Politics and
in the Performance of His
Official Duties.
(Special Correspondence.)
Philadelphia, Aug. 22. The Republi
can county conventions were held in
ths city today, and they carried out
the harmony rrogram to the letter.
Wencel Hartmaa was nominated for
sheriff. Thomas Dugan for coroner,
Wildemore and Hugh Black for coun
ty commissioners and Judges S. W.
Pennvpacker and H. J. McCarthy were
named to succeed themselves. The lat
ter is a Deuioctat, and an appointee
of Governoi Hastings. Both judges
will be named by tue Democratic con-
venMon, so that there will be no con
tests over the Judiciary at the Novem
ber election. There will, however, bo
no real stiurg!e over any place on the
ticket. Every man in it will be elect
ed by a big nnjority. There will be no
factional i;pp.isitlon to nny one of them
and all elements of the party will unite
In worklnr for a large vote, at the
election. The selection of thiAcandl-d.u.-s
was made after many confer
ences cf the lenders of the contending
factions wit I V.-ynr Ashbrldge, who
has labored i :iceasiagly to bring about
harmony In .he pariy organization in
this city. I'e has succeeded In a re
markable i"T3. The prospective
nomination i . Lieutenant Colonel Bar
nett for stpte treasurer Is well re
ceived In this city. A number of the
young snld'ers of the Spanish-American
war. who volunteered from this
city, have p ..e to Harrisburg to work
and cheer t Barnett. Among them
are the active spirits in the movement
for the organization of the proposed
'Barnett ba't.il;oi." which Is to be
formed after the adjournment of the
state convenUon and to take part in
the campaign.
ASHBR1DGE MAKING A RECORD.
Ashbrldge Is going to make a record
for himself as mayor of this city. He
has already Impressed his personality
upon the community by his Independ
ence and his businesslike way of golnfc
I bout things. He wtll not permit hlra-
6elf to be dictated to by the so-called
Republican newspapers that never find
anything good In anything that any
official does, unless he is of the David
Martin faction in local politics. Now
the mayor wants it known that he
represents no faction of the Republi
can party and that ho proposes to con
duct his office for the best Interests of
the people. He has consequently made
himself a mark for the assaults of the
insurgents, and he is being misrepre
sented daily by the same newspapers
that go out of their way to attack Gov
ernor Stone, and when they cannot find
anything in his ol'.lciul acts to criti
cize, they assail him personally. Mayor
Ashbridse has served notlie on the
editors of certain papers that if they
go one inch beyond the line of proper
and (estimate criticism he will proceed
against them in the criminal courts.
"I nm not thin skinned," remarked
tho mayor a few days ago, "but there
Is a limit to what I will stand. I do
not propose to be bulldozed Into doins
what I do not think Is right, and when
I conclude upon a policy I shall carry
It out. despite these newspaper attacks,
the political character of which the
people are li.lly familiar with."
PENNSYLVANIA FIRST IN CHARITY
The new mayor is a worker as well
as a fighter. He showed this in the
masterly nianer in which he responded
to the call of the secrelary of war for
supplies for the stricken people of Porto
Rico. He ft once put the full force of
his adn'n: : intion to work to have
Phllr.dc'i hlr. make a prompt and gen
erous response to the appeal for aid.
He remained at his ofllce until after
midnight rM!e this work was under
way. coresponding with the oflicials of
the war and navy departments and en
listing the rasimnie of loading and
puhlic miiritel citizens of the city and

ment to this city to take the suppliex
to the st' '.(ken p-P'e, found the
warvca fled with provisions ready to
be loaded cn i onrd and shipped with

of Pennsylvania, diverted from New
York, where they were to go under
the first notice sent out, and brought
direct to this city where they were
started off as the first shlnment from
the Keystone state.
READY FOR THE ENCAMPMENT.
Another evidence of the up-to-date
methods cr: ployed by Mayor Ash
brldge is shown in his management of
maters in re.'ation to the coming na
tional encami ment of the Grand Army
of the Republic. This has involved an
Immense amount of work. It has meant
the collection ot large sums of money
to meet the enormous expense that la
being Incured In the public decorations
and the proposed entertainment of diS'
tinguished visitors. Mayor Ashbrldge
ha3 been In constant communication
with the committees of the Grand
Army and has been of inestimable
assistance to them in many ways In
carylng out their various plans. He
will surely size up to all the require'
ments of the position of mayor during
the encampment next month. He Is a
