(Special Corresponfltnca.)
Harrlsburg. April 24. The Republi
can state convention, which will be
held here tomorrow, haa attracted a
prent crowd of enthusiastic party men.
They have assembled from every coun
ty In the state, and the Indications are
that the convention will be one of the
most interesting held here for some
time. The leading hotels and many
business houses are beautifully deco
rated, and bands of music are playing
merrily. The several candidates for
honors from the convention have open
ed headquarters, and each has a corps
of boomers at work among the dele
gates. The principal headquarters are
at the Lochlel hotel, where General
Frank Reeder, chairman of the Repub
lican state committee, haa established
his headquarters. He is assisted In his
plans for the convention by T. Larry
Eyre, his chief of staff, and Secretaries
Wesley R. Andrews and Charles E.
Voorhees. Attorney General John P.
Elkin, former Senator Israel W. Dur
ham of Philadelphia, Major Levi Mc
Cauley of WeBt Chester, Senator James
O. Mitchell of Jefferson, Representative
William H. Keyser of Philadelphia and
other leading men are active In the
canvass for the nomination of their fa
vorite candidates for congressman-at-larpe.
There Is apparently no doubt about
the nomination of Senator E. B. Har
denbergh, of Wayne county, for audi
tor general. He has no opposing can
didate to date. Senator Hardenbergh
is one of the best known Republicans
In the state. He has for years been
identified with stalwart Republicanism,
and he has labored sealously for the
success of the Republican candidates.
His nomination for auditor general
will be a fit and proper recognition of
his party services. Senator Harden
bergh was born at Wilsonville. Wayne
county, July 31. 1845. He was edu
cated at the public schools and learn
ed the business of railroading. He be
gan at the bottom of the ladder, and
from brakeman to conductor was a
natural promotion after years of faith
ful services. He Is at present engaged
m a traveling Instructor of conductors
for the Philadelphia and Erie Railroad
company. His active life brought blm
in contact with many of hta constlt
uants and he was finally given a Re
publican nomination for the house of
representatives. He was there always
regarded as a champion of the work
in gnien, as he was In a position to
recognize their needs In the matter of
legislation. He served In the house
in the sessions of 1885 and 1887, and In
lf-,54 was elected to the state senate by
the largest Republican majority ever
given a candidate In that district. He
has been a member of the senate ever
since. He has been an attentive and
faithful member of the legislature and
Is popular throughout the state. He
has filled the offices of chairman of the
Republican county committee and has
been a delegate to several state con
ventions and represented his district
at the Republican national convention
at St Louis In 1896. Senator Harden
berg Is a member of a number of or
ganizations of workingmen.
There is something of a scramble
for the nomination of congressman-at-large,
for which two candidates will
be nnmed. Congressman-at-large
Davenport, of Erie, Is not a candidate
for rcnomination, but Galusha A.
Grow is quite ambitious to succeed
himself.
PHILADELPHIA FOR FOERDERER.
The Philadelphia delegation Is here
with a strong contingent of the Quaker
City Republicans, who are insisting
upon the nomination of Robert H.
Koerderer, a well known manufacturer
of that city, for congressman-at-large.
The delegation has endorsed his can
didacy and several hundred stalwart
are here with a brass band and with
badges, working like beavers In his be
half. Mr. Foerderer has not been an
aspirant for the nomination, but he
recently Indicated to some friends that
were the nomination to come to him he
would accept. He has not been ac
tively identified with politics, although
always a consistent and loyal Republi
can. He has large business Interests
and has many admirers among the
members of the Union League, the
Manufacturers' club and kindred or
ganizations. He Is regarded as one of
Philadelphia's most progressive and
wide awake citizens, and has fre
quently been prominent In movements
which had for their purpose the ad
vancement of the interests of this city
and state. At the age of 16 years Rob
ert H. Foerderer began his business
career In a morocco factory. While his
father was the owner of the establish
ment he entered the plant as an hum
ble beginner and took his chances of
promotion with the other workingmen,
This was the result of his own de
termination as well as of parental ad-
viro. After mastering all the details
of the trade he eventually went Into
the business on his own account. He Is
today the owner of one of the largest
manufactories of glazed kid In the
world.
Mr. Foerderer was born In Frank
enhousen, Germany, on May 16, I860,
His parents were frugal and Indus
trious people, who, when he was an In
fant, Immigrated to America and lo
cated in this city. They sent the lad to
the public schools and afterwards to a
private academy. It was in May, 1885,
that the son began business in a small
way and his success has been remark
able. He has been identified with
otner interests in a financial way
and Is looked upon as a typical and
progressive Phlladelphlan. He is a dl
rector In several financial Institutions
and he is also identified with some of
the leading social clubs. He has never
leld any public office. He la thoroughly
familiar with the needs of Philadelphia
harbor, not only on account of his be
ing a large shipper, but by reason of
hi Interest In the general welfare of
the trade In the port
Supporters of Mr. Pverderer are dis
tributing copies of resolutions which
were passed by the Philadelphia dele
gation which read:
Whereas, The city of Philadelphia,
the metropolis of our great common
wealth, with a population numbering
over a million and a half of people,
conservative, well governed and happy
In their prosperity, with her diversi
fied industries, her manufactures and
commercial standing (they being sec
ond to none in the whole country),
with her capital and her labor seeking
and finding new fields for Investment
and employment, has the right toclatm
recognition at the hands of the Re
publican party, which she has always
sustained with larger majorities than
any other city in the sisterhood of
states; therefore, be it.
Resolved, By the duly elected dele
gates from the city of Philadelphia to
the Republican state convention, this
day assembled, that we heartily en
dorse the candidacy of Robert H.
Foerderer for the office of congressman-at-large,
and earnestly solicit the
active co-operation of our Republican
friends throughout the state, and ask
them to Join with us In making this
representative cltlien one of our
standard bearers in the campaign of
1!)00.
Our candidate is one of the most sub
stantial and respected citizens of our
great city. He has kept pace with the
development and growth of her In
dustrial and commercial. Interests, a
successful business man himself, a
large employer of labor, which labor
has steady employment and earns good
wages, and being deeply Interested In
all that pertains to the business. In
dustrial and social interests of our city
end state, we feel that he Is peculiarly
fitted to represent us In the national
congress. We, therefore, present mm
to the people of the commonweaitn as
candidate for the high office as one
worthy of their respect, confidence and
support.
The supporters of Mr. Foerderer are
not antagonizing Mr. Grow, but are
making a canvass on their own ac
count. It Is probable that Mr. Grow
will be renominated and that the ticket
will read Foerderer and Crow. There
Is. however, a lively scramble going
on with former Congressman Arnold
of Clearfield, Dr. Flood of Crawford
and John B. Steel of Westmoreland
also in the running. George T. Oliver,
of Allegheny, withdrew a few days ago.

(Special Correspondence.)
Philadelphia, April 24. In prepara
tion for the coming presidential cam
paign the Union League, ot this city,
Is holding a series of lectures and dis
cussions upon Issues which are likely
to be to the front In the fall canvass.
Leading Republicans from different
parts of the country are Invited to ad
dress the league and their speeches
are distributed with a view to educat
ing the people. Republicans through
out the country are following these
discussions with a keen Interest and
the Indications are that the party men
111 be equipped to meet every issue
that may be raised In the approaching
contest. The orator at the last week's
meeting at the league was United
States Senator J. B. Foraker, vof Ohio.
He devoted himself to the question of
the attitude of the United States to
ward Porto Rico and gave a complete
review of the policy of the Republican
administration on that subject. He
showed that when congress met Puerto
Rico was ruined. The markets of the
Island were lost. Its coffee plantations
were destroyed by the hurricane, and
In most cases five years must elapse
before they can bear again. The ca
pacity of the Island for yielding reve
nue was destroyed. Where before con
gress, In dealing with the territories,
had legislated for lands empty of peo
ple. It had now to deal with a thronged
Island smaller In area than Connecti
cut and larger In population by 300,
000 souls.
If this population was to be provided
with education, roads and an ade
quate government It needed an ex
penditure of $3,000,000 on Island and
$1,000,000 on municipal administration.
The Island had but $100,000,000 of tax
able property, carrying mortgage and
interest arrears to more than half Its
value. President McKlnley proposed
as the first remedy a remission of all
duties between Puerto Rico and the
United States. Inquiry showed this
was not enough. More must be done
and more has been done. An Income
could not be raised by our Internal rev
enue taxation because this would be
burdensome beyond reason on a popu
lation simple In habits and crude In
Industry. Direct taxation was lmpos-
Jlble. A land and property tax could
enly be established in one or two years.
The previous reliance of the island for
icvenue was on duties.
GEN. FORAKER S REVIEW.
Among other things General Foraker
said:
"A civil government was a necessity.
It must have three millions of dollars
for Its support, and the municipalities
must have at least one million more.
There was no system of direct tax
ation of property in operation. There
was no time to establish one. More
over. If tnere naa Deen time sucn a
system would have entailed upon that
people an Impossible burden. ,
Four per cent, or even tnree per
cent, la too burdensome a tax to Impose
on the property of even the most pros
perous state In the Union. To Impose
It on Puerto Kico wouia mean oniy
disaster, failure, bankruptcy and oe
V air.
"In view of these considerations, we
decided, first, that we would find some
way to exempt the people of that Island
from the direct taxation of their prop
erty, such as every other state or ter
ritory of the Union has always been
subjected to. The generosity of this
proposition was far greater and more
helpful than that recommended by the
president No such favor has ever
been shown to any other people for
whom we have legislated.
"We next decided, for the reasons al
ready given, that we would not, for the
time being, undertake to apply and en
force our Internal revenue laws In the
island, but. except on merchandise lm
ported Into the United States, we would
exempt the people of Puerto Rico there
fromanother unprecedented favor,
never before shown to anybody and,
In the third place, we decided that we
would nrotect their cortee. which con
stitutes their chief Industry and
amounts to more than two-thlrda of
their exports, from Injurious competl
tlon, by levying a duty of 5 cents a
pound on all coffee Imported into
Puerto Rico: and then, finally, we de
termlned that there should be collected
on all goods Imported Into Puerto Rico
from foreign countries tariff duties as
provided by the tariff laws of the unit
ed States; but that, Instead of turning
this money over into the national
treasury for the benefit of the United
States, as we have always Heretofore
done to every other territory, we wouia
turn It over to Puerto Rico for the ben
eflt and suDDort of its government.
"We then found, according to tne nest
estimates we could make, that when all
this had been done there would remain
a large deficiency, amounting to from
$1,000,000 to $1,500,00-.
TAX REDUCED, NOT PUT ON,
"The Question then was how further
we could raise revenue without direct
ly taxing the property of the Island to
meet thia deficiency: and we found
that w enn id in our onlnlon. best ac
compllsh this by leaving a Hgnt tann
duty upon the commerce between the
flue the Ding ley rates only Bo per cent
Yon hear constantly of our putting on
commerce with Puerto Rico a tariff ot
15 per cent when the troth Is we re
moved all but 15 per cent. We did not
add or Increase, but reduced and re
mitted. "We expressly provided, however,
that on and after March 1. 1902, there
shall be absolute free trade between
Puerto Rico and the United States, and
that there shall be such free trade
sooner In a year elx months, or nine
ty days, possibly whenever the local
government shall have provided other
wise for Its necessary revenues, and
that. In the meanwhile, all collections,
both those to be made In Puerto Rico
and those to be made In the United
States, shall be paid over to Puerto
Rico tor the support of lta government
without placing an additional burden
upon the already overburdened lands
and property of the Island.
"No such liberal and generous gov
ernment aa to revenues waa ever given
by this nation or any other to any ter
ritory or colony. It far surpassed all
recommendations and all expectations.
It should be further stated that an
analysis of the articles constituting
this trade shows that this tax no Im
posed would be borne almost exclusive
ly by the sugar and tobacco Interests,
more able than others to bear It with
out feeling any burden.
"In Puerto Rico we allow the people
to elect the lower house of the legisla
ture, and give them representation by
appointment In the upper house, and In
all other departments of their govern
ment "The provision that the upper house
of their legislative assembly shall be
appointed by the president Is due to
the fact that among lta members are
the bureau officers, upon whom will
devolve the responsible duty of organ
izing all the departments of that gov
ernment, and upon whom we must rely
to make that government as nearly
American as possible.
"In no other way could we safely
proceed to secure the necessary ability
and experience for such work.
"Like everything else tne Kepunncan
party undertakes, we propose to make
of thia a success a success for Puerto
Rico and a success for the United
States, and when that has been done
we shall only be too glad to increase
the participation of the Puerto Rlcans
In the conduct of their government as
rapidly as they are found equal to its
demands, and nobody will be happier
than we when we can give the whole
matter to themselves. I hope and be
lieve that the day Is not far distant,
but It would not be kindness to Puerto
Rico to do that now.
They have In that Island about one
million people. Of this whole number
only about 15 per cent can read or
write In any language. Only about the
same number own any property. This
means that there are In that little par
allelogram of the sea, about one hun
dred miles in length and thirty-five
miles In width, fully eight hundred
thousand men, women and children
who are absolutely Illiterate and who
are aa dependent as poverty can mnke
them. None of tnem have had any
experience In governing themselves
and very few have any conception ot
what Is meant by free popular govern
ment according to our Ideas and Insti
tutions.
"When General Miles landed In that
Island, at the head of our gaiiant and
victorious army, he made proclamation
that he had core not as an enemy,
but as a friend, and that the United
States would restore to them prosper
ity and give them the benefits of our
liberal Institutions of government. Tho
Inevitable results of the legislation that
has been enacted will consltute a com
plete redemption of all these promises,
and a triumphant vindication of the
capacity ot the Republican party for
that constructive statemanahip so es
sential to the safe guidance ot the re
public In Its onward course of expand
ing growth and power."

' USES OF OLD" PAPER.
Waat Tfai Oaeo a l-oa fow tfco Daala
f a FlaT Haalaeaa.
A curloua and Interesting feature of the
paper making Industry was brought to
the notice of au otliee manager a few
days ago by a letter of Inquiry- The lu
qulry was about accumulations ot writ
ten matter no longer of use, but of such
a private business nature as to necessi
tate careful disposal In order to prevent
examination by outside parties old ac
count books, for instance.
Years ago large offices used at some ex
pense to have such accumulations de
stroyed, usually by fire. But this was
troublesome, for pnpor In compact form
la slow to burn, and the destroying of
books and stacks ot paper tended to clog
furnaces.
In course of time a paper manufacturer
hit on the Idea of taking such old papers
to mill under assurances of privacy and
chemically removing all traces of writing.
Market price beiug allowed tot tne paper
thus gathered, what wa8 before merely a
waste and a source ot trouble liesides bo-
lame productive of a revenue worthy of
consideration, and the plan pre lu favor.
At first houses would send employees
with the stuff to the mills to be sure that
no scattering occurred, but gradually this
precaution rauie to be discontinued.
A large paper couceru, witu iuiiis in
Connecticut, has for years made a spe
cialty of cojlectlng such papers from
bankers, insurance compauics and large
mercantile houses and shippiug them di
rectly to the mills, where by the use of
strong chemicals all traces of writing are
destroyed before the material Is worked
over kito paper pulp. This feature of the
economics of a great city's affairs has
grown to great proportions, and some
times single loads contain as much as 10
or 30 tons of paper, all marked with writ
ing. Incidentally the spread of contagion by
this method Is effectually prevented. Wheu
the writing has disappeared from the
sheets, so have all vestiges of life.
The refuse collected aids In making dif
ferent varieties ot paper, and the careful
sorting process that must be employed
constitutes one of the chief items of ex
pense in usiug this material. The stuff
which comes from correspondence offices
goes In part to make writing paper. The
collections from newspaper headquarters,
containing wood pulp, must be used for
other purposes. All paper scrap is mixed
with large proportions of fresh material
