Hopefully to Pennsylvania
Republicans.

Philadelphia. S't. 11. Chairman
llubrock. of the Republican congres
sional committee, is worried over the
composition of the next house of repre
sentatives, which he fears may have
a Democratic majority nnd which will
lie able to thwart the efforts nnd work
o' the McKinley administration, if the
latter should be re-elected. He has
been moved to write a letter to the
Allied Republican clubs regarding the
Third district of Pennsylvania, which
ut present is represented by a Demo
crat, but which ought to lie represent
ed by a Republican, if in that district
there are a majority of Republican
voters, as it is claimed that there is.
DANCER IX Fl'SION.
The one thing that more than any
thing else will ensure the electlou of
Democratic members of congress, not
only in the Third district, but through
out the state, is fusion, and Mr. Guf
fcy and his followers make no secret
of tliclr Intentions to fuse with the in
surgent Republicans to that end. Mr.
CutTey has no more love for nn insur
gent Republican than he has for a stal
wart, except so far as he can use him
to advance the cause of Demoracy nnd
liryanism. The Democratic party in
Pennsylvania is entering into fusion
deals in Pennsylvania for the sole pur
pose of increasing the Democratic del
egation In congress and also, according
to The Record, of possibly electing
Col. Ouffcy or some ot her Democrat as
United States senator. Or, possibly, by
Hecuring the balance of power in the
legislature they hope to prevent the
election of a Republican United States
senator. This would mean one Repub
lican vote less in the senate.
DEMOCRATIC HOPES.
Ouffey's principal organ in this city,
The Record, Is urging the Democrats
to look after the election of congress
men. On this subject it said a few
days ago:
"The chairman of the Democratic
congressional campaign committee be
lieves that the outlook Is favorable for
the gain of several Democratic repre
sentatives enough to ensure a major
ity in the house of those who are op
posed to he colonial policy of the Re
publican leaders. It Is long since it
has been as important ns it is now to
wrest from the Republicans the control
of the house of representatives. To ef
. fed this is a purpo-ie that Hhould appeal
to the sympathy nnd invite the aid of
U large proportion i;f the voters of both
parties. This ye;ir there are many
men whose interest in politics has al
ways been keen, who cannot support
the presidential candidate of either
party with thrir accustomed enthusi
asm. To them the election of Mr.
liryan would mean an untimely attack
on the financial policy of the govern
ment and an ngaltatlon in favor of the
absolute abandonment of territory just
ly acquired and consecrated to the ser
vice of American civilization by the
blood of our soldiers. The election of
Mr. McKinley, they foresee, would be
coustrued by the Republican leaders
as a popular endorenient of the admin
istration "s policy and a warrant for
longer withholding from the annexed
Islands tho protection of the constitu
tion. The nrdent patriotism of the
American citizen is not satisfied with a
choice of evils, and it should be the
business of the Democratic congres
sional committee to offer a positive
purpose for which perplexed voters
could labor with enthusiasm.
"It Is the part of the Democratic
congressional committee to organize
nn opposition to the Republican candi
date in every congressional district
that is not hopelessly in the control
of the Republican machine. It should
carry on Its campaign without regard
to the presidential contest, except
where that could be made to serve a
good purpose. It should consider tho
election of Democratic representatives
as of the first importance to the coun
try, and Its task to be of greater con
sequence than that of the national
committer, which body has hitherto
overshadowed It. A heavier respon
sibility rests on the congressional com
mittee than it has ever borne, and It
should do its work independently and
with unprecedented energy."
WOULD HURT M'KINT.EY ADMIN
ISTRATION. Thus it will be ,een that while Guf-
fey is asking Republicans to desert
their party nominees for his fusion
legislative candidates, hp is hard at
work striving to defeat regular Repub
liran candidates for congress and is
using all the power of his newspaper
Hiipporters to elect a firyanite con
gress.
. Chairman Dabrork needs to devote
considerable attention to the fusion
schemes at present being carried on In
nil parts of this state. Mayor Ash
bridge is right In insisting that the
committees represented by Mr, Hanna
nnd Mr. llabcot k should go to work at
once, and if possible put an end to
these fusion movements.
To fuse with the Democratic party
In tho present important crisis is to
Klve lioub ulabie aid and comfort to
the enemies of the Ki imblicaii tiartv.
' It pliices the administration of Presi
dent McKinley in jeopardy. No Re
publican who values ills party prin
ciples or his country's welfare will
lend himself to fusion in any way.

J. Hampton Moore has received a let

eastern headquarters of the Republican
congressional committee lit Washing

Among other things Congressman
LoudensLager said:
"I have written Rabcock urging him

In the Philadelphia papers the publi
cation of his letter to you containing
suggestion about the Third district. I
sincerely hope that the matter of con
gressional elections In Pennsylvania
will be given much more of a place
in this cnmpRign than it has received
up to this time. There is no reason
why with united efforts on the part of
the Republican managers lu the state
of Pennsylvania we should not reclaim
at least six districts now represented
by Democrats, and It ought to be the
desire of every earnest man residing
within the limits of that state to
do whatever is within his power to se
cure this additional support In the
house of representatives to a contin
uance of Republican administration of
affairs. I shall endeavor to be present
with you on the 17th if possible."
ASHHRHHiE TAKES A HAND.
Congressman McAleer, who desires
to succeed himself in the Third dis
trict, called on Mayor Ashbridge last
week nnd was in close conversation
with him for quite a while. After he
had gone the mayor was seen and ask
ed ns to the cause of the Democratic
congressman's visit. Mayor Ashbridge
in response said: "Mr. McAleer called
on me for the purpose of soliciting the
support of my administration in his
canvass for re-election. I told him
that while I had no personal interest
in the candidate for congress in any
of the districts, that I had been asked
several times by Chairman Mark Han
na to do all I could to elect a Repub
lican in the Third congressional dis
trict. That In addition to that both
Chairman Uabcock and sub-Chairman
Iajudenslagerhadseen me several times
in relation to the matter and had urged
upon me the necessity of sending a
Republican from that district.
Continuing the mayor said: "In my
talks with Mr. Rabcock he told mo
that the Republican party expected to
gain at least six congressmen from
Pennsylvania, nnd I have told him
that unless he and Mr. Hanna put a
stop to the work of some of their al
leged friends in this state we were
more likely to lose three or four con
gressmen instead of gaining six."

Special Correspondence.)
Ilarrsibiirg. Sept. 11. Governor Will
iam A. Stone and On. Frank Reeder,
who were among the prominent Penn
sylvauians who went to Chicago to
participate in the encampment of the
Grand Army of the Republic, have
returned home, both much Impressed
with what they saw and heard In the
Windy City. The governor and the
chairman of the Republican state com
mittee took occasion to Inquire of many
of their comrades from different parts
of the country regarding the senti
ment of the people on the political sit
uation. They learned that there is en
thusiasm everywhere for the McKlu-ley-Hoosevell
ticket, and that Hryan
ism. while still kept to the front by a
coterie of aggressive leaders, is on the
wane.
"I look for the tii imphnnt re-election
of President McKinley," said Governor
Stone, "and it was indeed very grati
fying to hear the old soldiers from dif
ferent parts of the Union tell of the
admiration held by the people for the
McKinley administration, and especial
ly the president's patriotic and manly
action in meeting the grent issues of
the war with Spain."
REKHER IS CONFIDENT.
"Republicanism seemed to be In the
air." remarked Gen. Reeder, "and
wherever we went we got fresh evi
dence of the fact that the popular vote
this year Is going to be hugely in favor
of McKinley and Roosevelt. There Is
great enthusiasm for the ticket, nnd
the only danger lies in overconfldence."
Gen. Reeder was asked what action
had been taken by the committee re
cently appointed by the Republican
state committee on the subject of al
leged pcrty disloyalty. He replied that
the situation was being carefully can
vassed and that at the proper time tho
committee would be heard from. Tho
work of the so-called Republicans who
are In fusion deals with Ileniorrats to
defeat Republican nominees for the
legislature is being carefully noted, and
appropriate action will be taken In due
time.
"The Republican state committee In
Pennsylvania will welcome the coop
eration of nil Republicans." said Gen.
eral Re?dc "in the effort to Increase
the Republican (le'egation, nnd we shall
encourage the activity of the young
Republican club men of the State
League who propose to make this part
of the canvass a feature of their cam
paign work In the state. All Republi
can club men who conveniently can do
so should attend the club League con
vention in Philadelphia on the 17th nnd
ISth insts. and thus help inaugurate
what will be one of the most effective
movements in the direction of electing
a strong Republican delegation to con
gress from the Keystone State."
M'KINI.EYT, LETTER OK ACCEPT
ANCE.
There has been general commenda
tion of President McKinlcy's letter of
acceptance of the Republican nomina
tion. Much of Mr. McKinlee's letter
Is naturally devoted to a revpv of the
course which has ben pursued by his
administration In the matter of the
Philippines. He recites the circum
stances under which webeeamecharged
at Manila with responsibilities from
which there was no escaping and re
calls the various steps which have been
taken to rstrblish order in the Philip
pines, to nscertain the truth of the
conditions rl :ting there, to frame the
kind of government which should best
be adapted to the situa'ion. to reassure
the people of the benevolence of our In
tentions with regatd to them, and to
promote In evpry way the welfare of
the community with a due observance
of our duty, not only toward the small
fraction of the Philippine population
which is In arms or which is In sym
pathy with th" insurgents, but toward
the whole Phillrpin'? people, and not
only toward them, but toward foreign
countries having interests Involved,
and also towaid ourselves, The demon
stration made by the facts which Mr.
McKinley re, ites is that the United
States government has dealt judicious
ly and con iwsly with a difficult sit
uation which was not of its seeking,
but with which through the force of
circumstances it was tinescapably con
fronted and that in every step that h
lias taken the president kept carefully
within the limits of his constitutional
authority and most scrupulously avoid
ed the slightest infraction of the rights
nnd prerogatives of the legislative
tody.
No one can read Mr. MrKinley's re
view of recent history in the Philip
pines without being impressed with the
spirit of candor and sincerity by which
every line of it is animated.

Speaker of the House I). U. Hender

"Just before taking the train night

A MAN OP THE PEOPLE.
Senator Edmund R. Hardenbergh,
who is the Republican standard bearer
for auditor general, was born nt Wil
sonvllle, Wayne county, In this state,
on July 31, IStfi. He was educated
nt the public schools and at Eastman's
Dusiness college, In Poughkoepsle, N.
Y. After leaving school he went into
railroading, and for some time past
has been in the employ of the Erie
Railway company as traveling Instruc
tor. For the past 15 years Mr. Harden
bergh has been active nnd prominent
In the politics of his section of tho
state at large. He served as a mem
ber of the lower house of the legisla
ture during the sessions of ISSo and
1SS7, and in 1N!M was cloi led to tho
state senate, being re-elected to that
body In IMS. after a bitter fuctioa.il
fight. He has served ns a delegate lu
a number of Republican elate conven
tions and in the Republican national
convention in 1S1I0, nnd was chairman
of the Wayne county Republican com
mittee for the years 1X01 and 1S!2. Ho
Is well known among organised work
ingmen of the commonwealth nnd has
figured as a champion of labor at llar
rlsburg. a nation l character.
The venerable Gnlusha A. Grow, who
was renominated for -ongressnian-at-large
by the Republican state conven
tion, is a notional character. He was
born In Ashford (now Eastford). Wind
ham county, Conn., on Aug. 31, 1.S23.
His father died when he was 3 years
old, and his mother, with her six chil
dren, removed to Susquehanna county,
Pa., In May, 1834. There young Grow
worked on a farm until he began prep
aration at the Eranklin academy for
Amherst rollege, from which Institu
tion he graduated In 1S11. Three years
later he was admitted to the bar, and
in ISoO began his public career by be
ing elected the successor of David Wil
mot In the house of representatives.
He was elected from the same dis
trict for six consecutive terms, the first
three tiroes as a Free Soil Democrat,
the last three times as a Republican,
but In 1802 lost his seat through a re
districting of the state. In July, 1.1C1,
he was elected speaker of the house.
He returned to congress In 1894, when
he was elected to fill the vacancy caus
ed by the death of Gen. William Lilly,
congressinnn-at-large, and was re
elected on the ticket at large In lSPfi.
PHILADELPHIA WAS RECOGNIZED
Philadelphia's commercial Interests
and sterling Republicanism was recog
nized by the Republican siate conven
tion In the nomination of Robert H.
Foerderer, of Philadelphia, for the
other place on the ticket for oonp;ress-man-at-large.
Robert H. Foerderer
was horn In Frnnkenhnnsen, Germany,
on May 1(1, lKGO. His parents, when
he was an infant, came to America and
located in Philadelphia. They sent the
lad to the public schools nnd afterwards
to a private academy. At the age of
16 years he began his business career
89 an apprent ice in his father's morocco
factory, entering the plant as a humble
beginner, and took his chances of pro
motion with the other wo'kingmen.
After mastering all the details of the
trade he eventually went Into the
business on his own uccount. He Is
now the owner of one of the largest
manufactories of glazed kid in the
world.
Mr. Foerderer Is a director In several
financial institutions, and he is also
identified with some of the lending
clubs. He has never held any public
ofllce. His thorough familiarity with
the needs of Philaibdphia naturally
directed attention to him as an avail
able man to represent the state In the
national legislature. He has always
been a stalwart Republican and a lib
erul contributor to the puty organiz
ation. His cunilidiicy when fits! pro
posed received cordial support from
many members of the Union League,
the Manufacturers' club and the com
mercial and maritime exchange and a
strong sentiment in his behalf wag
quickly awakened.
