Third—That we recommend to the
county organisations, tbat in their
rales tbey allow the largest freedom
in tbe general participation in the

Tbe Stete Convention of June 30,
1886, having abolished Senatorial
representation, delegates to the ap
proaching State Convention will be
selected according to tbe number ot
Representatives in the Legislature to
which each county or city is entitled
under the Representative Apportion
ment law passed at tbe receut session
of tbe Legislature.
THOS. V* Coopxa, Chairman,
Io compliance with requests trom
many sources, tbat the National rules
of tbe Republican party be pufcl'sbed,
Chairman Cooper has appended them
to the call as follows?
Tbe Republican National Conven
tion ol 1884 adopted a resolution off
er«d bv Eon. Galnsha A. Grow, ot
Pencsj Ivsnia, which now embodies
all of tbe National rules of the party
touching tbe time tor calling conven
tions aud tbe election of delegates.
Tbe text of ibe rules is this, as offi
dally printed in the proceedings, p p.
"Said National Committee sball
issue tbe crJI kr tbe meeting of the
National Convention six mouths at
least before tbe time 6xed for said
Meeting; and eacb Cotgreesiouai dis
trict in the United States shall elect
its delegates to lbs', National Conven
tion in the same way as tbe nomina
tion of a member ot Con
gress is made in said dis
trict; and in tbe Territories tbe dele
gates to the convention shall be elect
ed in tbe same way as the nomina
tion of delegates to Congress is m~de;
and said National Committee shall
prescribe tbe tueth»'d for electing del
egates for the Distiict of Columbia.
An alternative delegate for del
egate to tbe National Conveutioa, to
set in tbe case of tbe absence of the
delegate, sball be elected in the same
Banner and at tbe same time tbe del
egate is elected. And the delegates
at large for each Btate aud their alter
nates sball be elected by State con
ventions io their respective States.
Tbe chauttes embodied in the
above, from tbe rules and customs
which previously obtained, can be
explained vrry briefly:—
First All specific limitations as
to tbe time of selecting State or dis
trict delegates have beeu abolished.
Second State conventious cannot
hereafter sub divide into district con
ventions for tbe select ion ol District
delegates, since this class of delega
tes mutt be elected in 'the same way'
as Representatives to Congress are
Bt'Oiuinttd and by the people of the
resp> ctive districts.
Thiirt \\ here new apportionment
laws are iu operation, aud counties
bme been displaced from former dis
tricts, district delegates must be se
lected from the new Congressional
district, iu like manner as candidates
for Cougress are nominated.
Members of the State Committee
and officers of County Committees
will rapidly promote a knowledge of
these rules by requesting their publi
cation in all of their local Republican
journals.

to choose their respective sides, fir*t
from i heir own school and then from
adj'>init.g schools ("liakerstown,"

After a Bhort recess during wbbh the

—Justice Miller of the United
States Supreme Court, has recently
published a piper in wbicb he favor
ah y discusses trial by jury. In his
younger days he was of the opinion
that the decision of all civil suit*
should be taken out of the bands of
juries and placed under the jurisdic
tion of judges learned iu the law
Longf observation haa led to a chang>-
of views and be would uow leavn
matters as they ure, believing that, u
jury of average intelligence, carefully
instructed in the law, will be as apt to
arrive at a verdict in accordance with
the facts as a company of judges
He has often b-en surprised at the
wide difference of opinion among
judges with reference to the facis,
though they were quick to ajfree a*
to the law. He would make u<>
change in the system ol trial by jury
in criminal canen, though h" thinks
ununmity ought not to be required
It two-thirds or three-fourths argee,
that should be sufficient Such »
change in the law would prevent
many a mis-trial and render the his
torical stubborn juror powerless for
harm. Justice Miller adds the opin
ion that it would be an improvement
on the present arrangement if accus
ed persons were to bu tried at a uis
taueo from the scene of their crime,
but as a whole he approves the jury

Randall Routed.
At the late meeting of the Demo
cratic State Committee of this State,
held at Harrißburg, there were some
lively times. Tbe contest among the
members of tbe Committee was as to
who should be its Chairman. A
part, led by Congressman Scott, of
Erie, had determined to remove the
present Chairman, a friend of Ran
dall, and put in a friend of Cleveland
in his place. In this tbev succeeded
by a close vote, and after a bitter
contest. In this contest the tariff
question was involved, the Rindili
part sustaining him and favoring pro
tection, and the friends of Scott de
wiring the endorsement of Cleveland's
late message against the tariff la
this they also succeeded, by the pass
Hge of the following resolution, wnich
endorses Cleveland's Administration
and especially his anti tariff views
Here is what tbey passed on the
pubjfct and which is a heavy blow to
Kandall and those Democrats of the
State who stand with him on tbe tar
iff.
Resolved, That this committee cor
diallv and emphatically iud >rse tbe
administration of tbe President.
The liue ol policy laid down in the
last uniiuu.l men-age of the Presideut
t",»r the revision and reduction of the
war tariff especially commands itself
to us as a sure guarauty of prosper
ity to all cla»ses ot producers aud ot
mat geuuine aud tiouest protection to
laOor so loug preteuded, but never
vouchsafed by tne monopolistic legis
islation of tbe so called Republican
party, We therefore avow without
Hesitation or qualification our uushak
eu confidence in tbe wisdom, courage
and patriotism of President Cleveland
and earnestly and hopefully recom
mend and urge bis re election to the
great office be baa BO acceptably filled
Free Trade on Top.
The organization of tbe Democratic
State Committee at flarrisburg yes
terday pots Free Trade on top in tbe
Democratic party in this State,
President Cleveland has placed it
there. The election of Mr Kisnw as
chairman of the Democratic Slate
Committee is not Mr. W. L. Scott's
victory, •lth>»ugh the ftsnlt leaves
him master of the situation,
but the success and supremacy ol
Free Trade as laid down in President
Clevelacd's messasre. Without this
aid Mr. Scott failed last Summer;
with it be succeeds now. Tbe Dem
ocratic party, even in Pennsylvania,
•iceepts the platform dictated by Mi*.
Cleveland and obediently moves for
wurd to oocu y it. Na one in or out
ot the State will doubt in future tbe
position of the Democratic party on
this issue. It is a Free Trada party
and it puts none bat free traders on
guard.
Mr. Randall is defeated, and bis
defeat is the more crushing because it
was generally unexpected. He is tbe
strongest Protection Democrat in the
conutry, aud he is far strooger in his
own State than any Protection
ist of his owu party. He has joined
itv-ue with President Cleveland aud
his inesnatrp, and be is "knocked out"
in the first round. If Mr Raudall
auoot make fitfbt aifai.ist the new
Free trade Democratic dictator of the
White House no one in bis party can
With him falls the last pronpect of an
>rgau'Z?d Protectionist opposition to
V[r. Cleveland iu bi4 own party. Mr
Rmdall faced him and bis patronage
pluckily and successfully la-Jt year;
h ■ has faced him pluckily now, but
not successfully. In s'x month*, tbe
Democratic party, even in Pennsyl
vania, has traveled fast and far to
wnrd- Free Trade, and it leaves Mr.
Randall in the rear and in the minor
ity-
For Mr Randall there is nothing
Mt but a fight for political existence
The qua«rel was not of his cbooning.
It was put upon him Mr. Sander*
stood for n >t,bing, save as h e stood
for Randall. Because he did staDd
for the leading Protectionist of tbe
Democratic party, and puly because
ne did. be was attacked. It would
be idle for Mr. Randall or bis friends
to blink the gravity of ibis defeat. It
is fatal, unlens Mr. Randall can re
trieve it in tbe House at Washington
Tne light in the Democratic commit
tee at Harrisburg ends compromise in
Democratic caucus at Washington.
L'b-ro is nothing left for Mr. Randall
<tnd his Protectionist colleagues but
to figbt to tbe und against the federal
Administration, and not even such a
*i gut can alter or conceal the fact that
even in Pennsylvania the Democratic
party is now openly in favor of free
trade, organizes tbe coming campaign
on this basis and puts the avowed
tree-trader, W. L. Scott, in charge.—

Talmage on Breach of Promise.
NEW YORK., Jan 22- —Rev Dr.
Talmage preached to tbe girls this
morning about "The S*oclity of a
Promise to Marry." His sermon
was founded on tbe story of Jeph
thaiis' daughter.
"Men and women," hp said, "need
to understand that, while there are
exceptions to the rule, once having
solemnly pledged to each other,
heart aud baud, the forfeiture and
abandonment of that pledge make*
tbe tr&u gresaor in the sign* of (i >d
a peijurtr, and so the d-»y of judg
ment will reveal it. Tne one has
iied to the other, aud all liars .-bill
bave their place in the take that
burueth with fire and brimstone. Tb.i
sending back of all the letters, a-id
riugs, and necklaces and keep sakes
cannot make that right .vuijh in tne
Bigbt of tiod, anc? ought to be in the
sight of men, HU everlasting wrong.
Wbat American society needs to be
taugr.it is that betrothal is au act so
soleiuu aud treuieudiou-t that all men
UUQ women must stand baca from it
uuiil tbey are sure tbai it is righ.
and sure tbat is best sure that no
retreat will Oe desired. Espousal is
a gate, a gulden gate, wilicn one
j should uot pass uule.-'S he or sbe
j wi&nes never to return.
"Eugageujeut is tne porch of which
marriage is tne castle, aud you bave
no ngut iu the porcn if you do not
mean to pa»s into the cas.le. The)
trouoie bus always been that this
whole trouble ot affiance bas been
relegated to tbe reaiui of frivolity
auu joke, und considered not wot lb a
sermon or even a serious paragraph.
'But suppose 1 should make a mis
take,'says some umu or woman, 'aud
i bad out after tbe engagement aud
before marriage?' My answer 18, you
bave no excuse for making a mis
take on ibis subject. There are so
mauy ways ot fiuding out all about
tne character and preferences aud dis
likes and habits ot a man or woman
mat if you had not brain enough to
form a rign judgemeut in regard to
biui or her, you are so fit a candi
date tor tbe matnmouial altar as you
are tor an ldiot-asy luui. O, woman!
you have more need to pause before
making sucn an important promise
tban man, because if you make a mis
take it's worse for you, If a man
blunder about a promise of marriage,
or go into an unfortunate marriage,
he can spend bis evenings away, aud
can go to tbe cluo or absorb his mind
iu city or State or National elections,
or smoke bimseit stupid, or drink
bimself drunk. But there is no place
of regular retreat for you, oh! woman,
aud you cauuot take narcotics or in
toxicants and keep your respectabili
ty. Before you promise, pray aud
think and study and advise. There
will never agaiu iu your earthly his
tory be a time when you so much
need God.
"If a man will lie to a woman and
a woman will lie to a man about so
important a matter as that of a life
time's welfiiie, they will lie about a
bill of goods and lie about finances

Bunko Men's Big Haul.
From Pittsburg Com-Gagftlt of Monday.]
Mr William Murdoch, of Wilkins
avenue, Sbadyside, one ot the best
known business men in the city, was
swindled out of SIO,OOO on Saturday
afiernoon by buuko men. Shortly
after 12 o'clock Mr Murdoch came
out of Will's barber shop, on Smith
field street, opposite Municipal Hall,
and was met by a well dressed num
who greeted him cordially, taking bis
hand and saying. "Why. Mr. Mur
doch, how do you do ?" Mr, Mur
doch, who is S3 years old, couldn't
place the inau, but supposed he was
a friend. The man walked with Mr
Murdoch to S'Xth avenue, and there
remarked that he had a fine history of
Pittsburgh aud its old 4 residents which
he desired to give Mr. Murdoch The
latter gentleman went with the man
to Grant street, and then down two
or three blocks. In a room either on
Grant street, Diamond street or
Fourth avenue, they found another
man who said be had sent the books
to New York to have them rebouud.
The talk was led to speculation, lot
teries, <fcc , and the men finally pro
duced some sort ol a device, and no
tified Mr. Murdoch that be had won
$o 000 Tbey showed a roll of bills,
but said that iu order to obtain it Mr.
Murdoch must produce 0,000 as au
evidence that be could have paid had
be l ist Mr. Murdoch then went to
the Bank of Commerce,drew out $lO
000 iu gold certificates aud bank
notes, accompanied the man back to
the room and a moment after the men
got hold of the money tbey notifiid
him be had lost the SSOOO and his
SIO,OOO also Mr Murdoch suid he
would see his lawyei, and tbe sharp
ers advised him to do so Mr, Mur
doch went to D I) Bruce, E<-q , wbo
told him to notify tbe police at once
He did so, but as be was so excited
that he could give no description of
i the men,, or even remember where ih-t
room was, nothing could be done,
The men are evidently tar away by
ibis lime.
The detectives went with Mr
! Murdoch to several places on Graut
1 Btreet in which ho thought the room
wab located, but could uot dad it
Neither could the d»*t» ctives learu of
any office room which had been rout
ed recently on Graut street or Dia
mond alley. Detectives were Bent to
watcb all the depots and the muiu
thoroughfares leading out of the city,
but saw no p«jrsous who looked BUS
picimis. Tbev learned, however, th»t
within fifteen minutes after Mr. Mur
doch's cash was taken two men drove
furiously out the Brownsville road.
Two of the detectives suid last
evening that they"felt sure they bid ;
tbe men located and expected to gut a
telegram ar. any minute announcing
their arrest in another city* One of j
tbe detectives 6aid tbev had foil Dd
that ihe persons su-jweted came to
Pittsburg onlv four d«vs previous to
the robbery, but did effectual work in
that time in learning Mr. Murdoch's
habits and wealth Tnev belong to j
a gang of confidence who operate
in » few of tbe la r gest cities and
against, tvbom it isextremelv d ffi-ult
to secure evidence. Tbe elun the?
have obtai-ed is slight, but sufficient
to locate tbe men,
Detective OWlara says he bad an
experience with a gariir of huttko men
a few \tars ago, aud a're.- e' two or
three ot the most noted of the "pro
fession," but WHS uuabie to hold them
from lack of evidence. They were
charged with being suspicious char
acters, paid their titles and left tt e
city. The same difficulty, he said,
would be experienced in the Murdoch
case should the men be arrested, a-*
Mr Murdoch is not positive iu bis
description of the n aid may be un
able to identity them
A relative of Mr Murdoch told one
lof the detectives last evening that
Murdoch had a somewhat similar ex
perience with bunko men wbeu I e
j wa* in California n few months
I'be men succeeded in getting a check
! for $lO 000 from Mr Murdoch, bu
after he bad given it he became Sus
picious and telegraphed to have puv
meut stopped.
