1 PENNSYLVANIA IS SOLID FORM'KINIEY Eniphatio Declaration From Re publican Convention Widely Commented Upon. THE TICKET A STRONG ONE. Stalwsrts Were in Absolute Control and Insurgents Made But a Feeble Showing. (Special Correspondence.) llarrlsuurg. Aug. 29. Stalwart Re publicans have good reason to be de ligted with the outcome of the state convention, which was held here on Thursday last. It was a most en thusiastic and patriotic body. The references to the McKinley administra tion and to the work of the gallant BOl diers in the Spanish-American war and the insurrection in the Philippines were received with spirited demonstra tions. The ticket nominated and the platform adopted will be received by the people everywhere with approval, as has beert evidenced in the reports already made by the men actively as sociated with the party organization. The selection of Lieutenant Colonel James K. Barnett, of the famous Fight ing Tenth regiment, for the office of state treasurer, J. Hay Brown, of Lan caster, for supreme court justice and Joslah R. Adams, of Philadelphia, for justice of the superior court will un doubtedly meet with general com mendation. While the nomination of these can didates had been foreshadowed, the much advertised fight that was to be made over the platform developed an almost farcical showing from the Flinn Martln combine that have been waging a bitter personal warfare upon Colonel M. S. Quay, and to further their ends have been maligning and misrepre senting every one identified with the leadership of the regular Republican organization from the governor of the commonwealth down. In a state convention composed of 243 delegates, the insurgents, with Flinn, of Allegheny, as their spokes man and leader, could muster but 49 delegates to vote against the platform, which was adopted. There were 192 who voted in its favor, with two ab sentees. This platform, among other things, declares for the re-election of President McKinley in the most em phatic terms, after cordially com mending him, and heartily indorses the administration of Governor Stone, and especially approves his action in the appointment of Colonel Quay to fill the vacancy in the United States sen ate. Flinn wns vigorously hissed when he rose to object to the adoption of this platform, but United States Sen ator Penrose, who was presiding, promptly called for order and insisted that he be given a full opportunity to speak. Fllnn's demand for a yea and nny vote on the adoption of this report of the committee on resolutions was quickly seconded by General H. H. Bingham, who, without deigning to en ter into any argument, smilingly em braced this opportunity to place on record the weakness of the opposition. Of the 49 votes polled 17 were from Flinn's Pittsburg machine, 12 repre sented the remains of the Martin dy nasty In Philadelphia, 2 comprised the Hastings following In Center and 3 were delivered by Hastings' Attorney General McCormick from Lycoming, a total of 34, leaving but 15 votes as the entire strength of "this movement" in the balance of the entire state. The signal for the first outburst of applause was the entrance of Senator Tenrose. As the tall and commanding figure of the distinguished young Phll adelphian moved toward the platform he was given a cordial reception. Soon there was loud cheering from the rear of the hall, and nearly every man in the building arose from his seat to noto the cause of the commotion. Matthew Stanley Quay, smiling and nodding in recognition to his friends, and fanning himself with a straw hat, as he walked toward his seat, had reason to be proud of the ovation that greeted him from every quarter of the hall. Senator Penrose's speech was lis tened to with great attention. His bold and unqualified declaration for Mc Kinley's re-election led off the cheering for the president, and a compliment to himself was the generous applause given him when he finished his speech. When nominations for state treas urer were called for Delegate Brown lee, of Washington county, In which Colonel Barnett lives, said the county had selected Richard B. Scandrett, of Allegheny, the colonel's former law partner, to name her favorite son. Mr. Scandrett said ho named Colonel Bar nett for Allegheny, for Washington, for western Pennsylvania, for the peo ple of the entire state, for the patriots who honor the Tenth regiment which has half encjrcled the globe In its country's eavse and whose brilliant exploits have attracted the attention of the civilized world. For supreme court justice J. Hay Brown received 208 votes, Judge Arch bald 25, General Palmer 9, and Brown's nomination on motion of Mr. Fleita was made unanimous. The vote on the superior court judge ship wns 101 for Adams and 47 votes for Beebcr, When ic came to vote on the nomi nation for state treasurer, there being no other candidate, Beneral Bingham, addressing the chair, said: "Colcnel Barnett, being the only candidate for state treasurer befora this convention, I move his nomination be made unanimous and by acclama tion." "1 second that motion," exclaimed Chief Insurgent Flinn, for once being in harmony with the stalwart program. Barnett v as nominated with a hur rah. THE PLATFORM.

Business is active and remunerative, labor is employed at good and increasing wages, capital has an ample field for investment, and an era of unexampled prosperity has been Inaugurated. Much of the success of the Republican policy adopted In 1S96 is due to the good judgment, wise counsel, administrative ability, far reaching diplomacy and broad minded statesmanship of our patriotic presi dent. We firmly support and fully In dorse his administration and place on record the wish of the Republicans of Pennsylvania that he be nominated to lead the hosts to victory in the cam paign of 1900. and to this end we rec ommend the election of delegates who will nive his candidacy earnest and vigorous support at the next national convention. We reaffirm the principles of our party declared In the national platform by the St. Louis convention. The Re publican party of Pennsylvania stands unequivocally and unreservedly for sound money, and favors a currency with which to pay the wages of labor and the earnings of capital, the soldier and pensioner, as good as gold the world over. To fuither these ends we believe In maintaining the existing gold standard, nnd are unalterably op posed to the free coinage of silver at the ratio of lfi to 1. We renew and emphasize our alle giance to the policy of protection, which is the bulwark of our industrial development and the foundation of the prosperity of our country. We cordially endorse and heartily approve the wise course pursued by our representatives In congress in the enactment of the Dingley tariff law. We congratulate the country on the successful termination of the war with Spain and recognize the wisdom of the policy President McKinley has in augurated in the management of the affairs in Cuba and Porto Rico, and promise him our faithful support In the prosecution of the war in the Phil ippines, in order that the supremacy of the flag planted there by the valor of our army and navy may be main tained. Pennsylvania is proud of the record made by her soldiers at Gettysburg. Antletam. Fredericksburg, the Wilder ness, Chickamauga and upon other bat tlefields of the civil war, and glories in the fact that the spirit of the old vet erans has been handed down to their sons, who heroically followed the des tiny of the flag at San Juan Hill.

We feel a patriotic pride in the fact that every battle fought in defense of our national honor has contained a record of the brave deeds of Pennsyl vania soldiers, and we extend to thoso now returning from the Philippine Islands a hearty welcome and express our admiration for the courage and bravery with which they upheld the flag of their country and the honor of our state. The Tenth Pennsylvania, under the leadership of the courageous and lamented Hawkins, occupies the honorable position of being the only regiment east of the Mississippi river chosen for campaign work in the dis tant Philippines, and it Is now a matter of national history that they met the highest expectations of those who se lected them for this pntrlotlc service. To give continued employment to the Industry, ingenuity and skill of the American mechanic and laborer we must find new markets abroad for our surplus products. The commercial control of additional territory will af ford new markets which will necessa rily increase our commerce and de velop our manufacturing interests. We have ceased to be content with supply ing products for home consumption alone. We must keep pace with other na tions in seeking new fields for our commerce, and to this end we support the policy of industrial commerce and national expansion. We favor for our national defense and the promotion of closer commerce relations between the sections of our vast territory, now an immediate necessity, the immediate commencement and early completion of a great canal that will give communi cation between the Atlantic and Pa cific oceans, as well as Its protection against foreign control. We believe the best interests of the laborer will be conserved by the con tinuance of Republican supremacy in state and nation. We express our ap proval of the right of labor to organ ize as well as capital, and believe that nich organization properly and lawful ly controlled will accomplish better lcsults for both the employe and tho employer. We recognize that the per petuity of our Institutions depends upon giving to labor the fullest and freest opportunity to better Its condi tion by securing employment under the most favorable clrueumstances. We commend the wise, business like and courageous administration of our distinguished governor, William A. Stone. As chief executive he has shown a disposition to serve the best Interests of the whole people and to conduct his administration on lines of common honesty and business like sa gacity. Like an individual, a state must live within its income. An individual who pays out more money than he receives becomes insolvent, and a state that adopts the same policy must sink in credit. We, therefore, uphold the gov ernor In his policy of reducing the ex penses of the state so that they shall not exceed our Income. The largest support should be given to our char itable, eleemosynary, penal and char itable institutions, but appropriations should not be made, even for these worthy purposes, beyond the annual revenues of the state. If additional revenues are required we favor tho taxation of incorpornted capital and or ganized trusts, so that the public bur dens may be more fully and equally distributed. We commend the good judgment of the Republicans of Pennsylvania in their selection of representatives in both branches of the national congress. Vhey fitly and properly represent the great commercial, industrial and busi ness Interests of our commonwealth. The Republican party owes a debt of gratitude to her senior senator, Mat thew Stanley Quay, who for more than a quarter of a century has stood in the forefront of the battle for Republican supremacy.

CAUCUS BOLTERS SEVERELYREBUKED David Martin Practically Elimi nated From Philadelphia Politics. Throughout the State, as in the Quaker City, Regulars Voted in the State Conven tion Where Insurgents Once Held Forth. (Special Correspondence.) Philadelphia, Aug. 29. The passing of David Ma: tin as a power In the pol itics of the C. tinker Cl'.y was one of the most conspicuous features of the state convention of the Republican party of Pennsylvania, held at Harris burg last week. After a supreme ef fort he succeeded in getting 12 votes from this city against the adoption of the platform which commended Gov ernor Stone ftr his appointment of Colonel Quev to the vacancy in the United State- senate, and when he tried to line the de'ecates up against Josiah R. Adams, candidate for the su perior bench and in favor of Hastings' appointee, Dimner Beeber, all he could muster were nine votes. When it Is recalled that Martin at one time had practically the solid delegation of 64 at his back, this I"? a lamentable show ing. The action of the Philadelphia cau cus in indorsing Josiah R. Adams for the superior court was in accord with the sentiment of the party in this city. But David Martin, wishing to show bib gratitude for his appointment by Hast ings to the secretaryship of state, was determined to get as many votes as possible from Philadelphia for Beeber. He ia probably ashamed at the showing he made. He found that while he was regarding his own wishes and inclina tions, the ward leaders who had fol lowed him when he boasted of his stal wart Republicanism were not going to cut their own throats in plunging with him into the abyss of the political bolter. They are all practical men. No ward leader in Philadelphia can last long with an alliance with the Flinn insurgents. The. Republican voters will not submit to such leader ship. Martin, whom everybody In ac tive politics believes Is preparing to retire. Is In different circumstances from thofe of any of his old time lieu tenants. He is immensely wealthy. Hs has no occasion to concern himself about where h's nert month's rent Is to come from, nor does he have to bother about getting positions for con stituents to maintain the control of an organization. Martin found when he went from delecate to delegate to the state convention th?t human nature has not chamred. His old friends were all ready to do him a good turn, pro vided thev were not called upon to sacrifice themselves. They declined to commit political hara-kari Just to oblige Mr. Martin and help his friends Flinn nnd Hastings tut of their dilem ma. The cl.nirmr.n of the city Republi can campolen committee of Philadel phia, Magistrate Clement, did not fol low Martin into tbe insurgent camp, because "he was looking after Mr. Clement's Interest " When the votes were polled In the convention ten members of the legis lature from this cltv who bolted the Republican senatorial caucus found that the da!e-,ntes from their districts cast their ballots for the platform which declared amon; other things: "The Rerublicnn party owes a debt of gratitude to her senior senator, Mat thew Stanley Quay, who, for more than a quarter of a century has stood at the forefront of the battle for Republican supremacy. Our state is entitled to full representation In the United States senate, find we Indorse the action of the governor In making his appoint ment to fll a vacancy caused by the failure of the last legislature to elect." REBUKE TO BOLTERS. The same condition of affairs exists in Bradford where two of ti.e three members bolted the caucus; in Chester, Blair and Montgomery, where the al leged Republicans elected on fusion tickets joined the insurgents; In Clear field county, where Representative Al exander bolted the caucus; In Dela ware, where Senator Sproul and Rep resentative Bliss joined the insur gents; In Lackawanna, where Repre sentative Mackey became a bolter; In Luzerne, where Representative Snyder lined up with the insurgents; In Mer cer, where Representative Martin was a kicker; In Montour, with Represent ative FoRter misrepresenting his con stituents, and In Somerset where both Representatives Koontz and Kendall were repudiated by their Republican neighbors. The action of the Btate convention upon the Issues that arose out of the differences in the legislature is an un qualified Indorsement of the policy of the stalwart members of the senate and house. These delegates are all well known men, and they were commis sioned directly by the Republican voters to pass upon, the questions that most directly concerned the Integrity of the Republican organization. The Insurgents have not a foot to stand upon, and it is manifest that they are now at a loss to know what t k to take next. Tlir Dent Itemrdy For Flux.

"I wns never mixed tip with a smug gling transaction but unco in my llfo," said a New Orleans business man whose name may ns well bo left out, "nnd my expcrlenco was so painful that I swore off then and there. I had a denl In west Texas on hand nt tho time and bad made a short trip over the Mexican frontier, during which I picked up a handful of very lino opals. A wicked friend showed me how easy it wns to carry them over tho lino without laying tribute to Undo Sam, nnd I was weak enough to yield to tho temptation. When I got on the curs nt Kl Paso, however, to coino enst to Dal las, I was haunted by a guilty conscience and had a hori iblo premonition that some secret service ollicer was on my truck. "Presently my attention bceanio nt tractcd by it man with a black In-ard who kept looking nt me furtively from a sent across the way. I tried to persumlo myself that, it was all imagination, but i numlier of things occurred during that rido that satisfied mo I wns really being watched. I went into tho smoker, for Instance, nnd before long caught a glimpse of the black bearded chap peering through tho end of tho car window from tho platform. It was the siime In tho dining car, nnd, to make, a long story short, I reached Dallas thor oughly unstrung. That evening I lx'gan to think I had shaken tho fellow off my track, when I happened to stroll out of tho hotel, and there he was standing behind a pillar. Needless to say I didn't sleep a wink, and when I bumped into tho sleuth next morning and saw that ho had shaved off his beard I gave myself up for lost. However, that wns the last of him, nnd for the balance of my stay I was unmolest ed and gradually regained my equanimity. "That tho man had liccn shadowing mo wns undeniable, but what his purpose could hnvo lieon nnd why ho dropped tho game so abruptly were mysteries which I was forced to leave unsolved. It wns two yenra before I found out. Then I ran across tho man one day by accident In a St. IiOiiis restaurant and he owned up. It seems that ho had been n public otlicial in a small Texas town and got mixed up in his accounts. He swore to mo that it was only bad bookkeeping, but the grand jury indicted him for einliezzleinent, nnd ho skipped until things calmed down. I hap pened to coincide with a description ho had of n detective, and nil his strange moves were actuated by exactly the same motive that prompted me to run namely, to see whether ho was being watched.
