The Republican State Convention met at Harrisbnrg, Wednesday, and nominated Gen. D. M. Gregg, of Berks Co. for Auditor General; and John W. Morrison, of Alle gheny Co. for State Treasurer; both on first ballott, and these two gentleman with the Chairman of the Convention, Mr. Elkin,and in accordance with a resolution that pass ed the Convention, selected Lt. Gov. Watres for Chairman of the State Commit tee. The sensation of the day was the defeat of Quay's resolution nominating Blaine for President in 1802. The Convention met at 10 a. m anil elected Henry Hall of Mercer temporary chairman; the names of the committeemen on resolutions,permanent organization and to nominate delegates-at-large to the Con stitutional Convention were handed up;and then the convention adjourned till 2 p. m. At 2 p.m. the Convention re-assembled, the Com. on Organisation nominated John P. Elkin of Indiana county for Permanent Chairman and he was elected. Then then Committee on Resolution* made its report; the resolutions were read; Mr. Culbertson made a motion to substi tute Quay's resolution; Frank Willing Leech motioned the band to start up; Chair man Elkin declared the motion to substi tute, which nobody had heard or voted upon, carried; John Cessna objected to the proceeding; Mr. Reyburn wanted the band removed from the hall, some speeches wero made, a vote was taken, and the mo tion to substitute was beaten. . Then Mr. Andrews presented resolutions rescending the action of the Convention of 1888 as to the election of state chairman, and putting the matter in the bands of the candidates and chairman of the convention and that carried Then the candidates for Auditor General were put in nomination—Baer of Reading nominated Gregg, Davies nominated Mylin and Brewster nominated Price, and the first ballott stood Gregg 106, Mylin 60 and and Price 37, and Gregg was declared the nominee. , „ Robertson of Allegheny nominated Mor rison, and Wilbur of Warren nominated Thompson, for Treasurer, and Morrison was nominated on first ballot —the vote standing Morrison 167, Thompson 31 and Price 2. Both the nominees appeared be fore the convention and made short speeches. The oommittee appointed to name the candidates for Delegates-at-Large to the Constitutional Convention reported the fol lowing and their report was approved: A. 8. L. Shields, Philadelphia; John Roberts, Phil'a; Isaao 0. Wear, Phil'a; William I. Schager, Delaware; Herman Kramer, Phil'a; Louis W. Hall, Harrisburg; Morris L. Kauffman, Lehigh; Gen. Frank Reeder, Northampton; H. ft. Edwards, Lackawan na; H. C. McCormick, Lycoming; George S. Schmidt, York; Hon. J. H. Pomeroy, Schuylkill; Cyrus Elder, Cambria; John Cessna, Bedford; John S. Lambie, Pitts burg; William B. Rodgers, Allegheny; Hon. James L. Brown, Mercer; Torrence Y. Powderly, Lackawanna. THB PLATTORiI The political planks of the platform are as follows: First—We heartily indorse the broad and statesmanlike administration of President Harrison, which has exhibited an intelli gent and inflexible purpose to execute the federal laws, maintain the dignity of - American institutions, and insure the con tinuance and growth of prosperity and peace in the nation. Second—We view with peculiar satisfac tion the direction of the affairs of the Post office Department by one of our own citizens, the Honorable John Wanamaker, whose clean, businesslike and comprehen sive administration of its affairs has ad vanced the postal operations oi the Nation to a plane never previously attained. Third—lt has been with special gratifi cation that the Republicans of this Com mon wealth have observed the brilliant administration of the State Department by one of Pennsylvania's native sons whose superb diplomacy has electrified the hearts of all Amerioans, exacted from foreign people a degree of respect and admiration tor the United States flag hitherto unequal ed, and opened wide to us in other lands commercial gates heretofore barred. The magnificent achievements justify the con fidence and famish new occasions for us ro reaffirm the loyalty and devotion of the Republicans of Pennsylvania to her most distinguished son—the Honorable James G. Blaine. The other resolutions endorse and ap prove of the new tariff law; favor bimetal iein and reoommenda measures to prevent the debasement of the currency that would follow the making of this country the dumping ground for the silver of the world; favors pensions to all deserving veterans and their widows; refers to the labor laws lately passed, the ballot reform law, the increase in the school appropriation and return of personal property and license taxes to the counties; denounce Gov. Pattison's veto of the ap portionment and Compulsory Education bills; favor the repeal of the mercan tile tax and amendment of revenue laws; favor a Federal election law, puts represen tation in future Btate conventions on the basis of one delegate for 2,000 Republican votes and fraction exceeding 1,000; and recommends the popular vote system of making nominations in all congressional, senatorial and judicial districts. General Gref J is an *ld soldier, who has] been somewhat independent in his politi cal actions. He wa« in command of the cavalry of the Army or the Potomac from .Aug. of 1864 to Feb. of 1865; was after wards Counsel at Prague, and is now liv ing with his family in Reading. Captain Moirison, was born in Philadel phia and with fais parents moved to a farm near Centreville, this oounty, when he was but a boy. He entered the army as a pri vate, was successful in business in (Pitts burg, was elected to the Legislature, and has for some years been Chief Clerk of the House. He fives at Bellvue, where he has a beautiful place. STEALING the livery of heaven to serve the devil in is receiving a new illustration these days, in Quay and Cameron stealing the livery of Blaine to servo the devils of their own ambitions, in a last desperate effort to retain oontrol of the party in the State for their own purposes. After they have secured that they will have no more use for Blaine than they now have for President Harrison. When the devil was sick, the devil a monk would be; when the devil was well, the devil a monk was he.— Sharon Herald. JAMBS 6. BLAISE is no more enthusias tically the choice of Pennsylvania Repub licans for the presidential nomination to day than he was in 1876, when Ruther ford B. Hayes was nominated by the Republican convention at Cincinnati, and again in 1880 when James A. Garfield was nominated at Chicago. On both those occasions Mr. Blaine would have been the nominee of the party had it not been for the bitter opposition of J. D. Cameron. No one believes, who is familiar with the politics of Pennsylvania for the past fifteen years that this man Cameron is honestly supporting the great Maine statesman now.—McKew Qv.,Miner. Highway Robbery. Amid all the theorizing and difference of 1 opinion among the people of the oil region concerning the recent disturbance ot value of their property, certain cold fact-: stand out from the rubbish and wreck so distinct ly that even the blind may feel their appalling presence. A few days ago, petroleum represented by certificates issued by the Standard Trust was quoted as selling at about 00 cents per barrel, with small fluctuations above and below that figure. Other petroleum, or rather actual pe troleum used by the trade was worth in the market trom five cents to forty cents more, the price differing in the various dis tricts. These "premiums'' a.- they were called, were arbitrary and wore put on or taken off by the Standard Trust according to its pleasure. These "premiums" were first made equal Then within a few day s taken off alto gether. so that all oil nominally brought the price of "certificate' oil in the ex changes. A broker and employee of the Standard Trust then began to offer oil for sale at prices below the last quotations and con tinned selling large and small lots until the markets was fixed by his transactions at 50 cents. This made a total decline in the market within a few hours of about cents per barrel to the oil producer. When everybody had became sufficient ly p-nic-stricken by tho exhibition of power, orders wore issued to put the price ■p again and under the baying of the Standard Trust, it rose nominally to <0 C6 The price then began to decline, until it realized less than 63 cents. Mnch of this happened within forty-eight hours; all of it within a week, and without a word of warning. . .. „ The results are the precipitation of a financial panic upon the oil country. Ihe banks are refusing to lend money. Oil and oil property and even good persona! paper secured upon oil property, is no good collateral. The banks are afraid, and justifiably so, of lending money upon property the value of which may be m a day depreciated from 25 to 50 percent, by the click ot a telegraph instrument operat ed in the secret chambers of the Standard Trust in New York City. That all this was done intentionally and with premeditation, and for the deliberate purpose of upsettling business operations, and producing stringency in the money market and financial embarrasment among the producers and independant refiners, no man can doubt, who is not paid to doubt. About sixty days ago the Standard Trust gave oat in substance that as the Pennsylvania oil producer was making trouble, and showed a disposition to take "our business" away from "us" or inter fere with "otu busines" it was ueccessary for the Trust to "fight'' and that low prices might be expected, and if neccessary to make the oil producer so poor that ho could not pay in capital iuto tho business company he had seen fit to or ganize, to put oil to 50 cents per barrel, it would be done. Well it has been done, and will be again. This is highway robbery. As much rob bery as if the Trust had stopped every oil producer in tho road and taken from him • quarter of the money in his pocket. There is no justification for this exhibition of brutal power, either in law, morals or business principles. It is mob law. Are there any apologists for the outrage" Are there any who will meekly swallow the soft talk and apologies and falsehoods put forth to excuse this plunder of our peoplet— Ex QUAY is using the Blaine hurrah to re turn him to the Senate. In the general obscuration produced by the political py rotechnics he thinks that ho can, unseen fix it for himself again—steal the amuui tion train, so to speak. Right here and now let us warn honest Republicans not to let the Blaine blind obscuro the import ance of the next Legislature. Support no mun who will not pledge himself against Quay's re election. Uegin now to test the candidates. The incubus of Quay ism must be thown off now or the party is hopelessly doomed.—Greenville K«wg. Death of Charles S. Wolfe. The Pennsylvania "Worlds Fair Commis sion held iti first meeting at Harrisburg last Thursday. Gov. Pattison prefided, the diflerontcom mittees were selected, Hon. Charles S.Wolfe, .of Union Co. was olected Executive ;Com missioner, and madeaneatspech accepting the office,vacancies in the Commission were filled,and then the Commission ad journed to meet at a later hour. Mr. "Wolfe and Senator Emery of Brad ford, went to dinner together. Wolfe was in the best of spirits and ate heartily, fin ishing his dinner with ice cream, though warned by Emery of the danger ol doing so on a warm day, to which he replied that he had recovered his health and could now eat anything with impunity. Then he started back to the adjourned meeting at the capitol, and fell dead at one of the entrances to the grounds. Tho Commission mot and took appropriate ac tion in his death. That evening a Coro ner's inquest was held on the body and a veidict of death by heart disease was render ed. Senator Emery thinks Mr. "Wolfe's death was due to the ice cream he ate. Governor Pattison that night telegraphed the following; "Mrs. Charles S. Wolfe, Lewisburg: "Would that I could send some word to assuage your grief. You have my warmest sympathy. The Commonwealth will mourn with you the loss of one of its purest eiti tens, whose long-continued, faithful and enthusiastic service has left its impress. A good name, a pure record in public life, is a grand legacy. ROBRKTE. PATTISON. The New Castle Convention. According to report the meeting of the Republican committee of Lawrence Co., last Saturday was an unsusally harmonious one. All the districts were represented. Harrison's administration was, indorsed as being conservative clean and thorough; and James. G. Blaine, that ''American ol Americans" and statesman of statemen' was recognized as being pre-emnently fitted to lead the Republican party to victory. The only squabble was over the motion to appoint a committtee to confer with those of the other counties on the Congressional matter, and in this tho Phillips faction overcome the McT>owell by a small ma jority. and the committee was appointed. Fennelton. Miss George and Miss Gibb. of Petrolia, aro the guests of Mrs. Jacob Fenuell, jr. Mr. "W. P. Sipe is on the sick list at this writing. We hope he shall be better soon. Mr. Samuel Fennell, of Allegheny City, is here visiting his parents Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Fenuell, sr. Mr. Samuel Milligan and sous are re pairing Mrs. Denny's barn. A goodly number of our citizens visited the falls of Niagara last week. They re port having seen some wonderful sights. On "Wednesday of last week Mr. Thos. Dipner was called to the bedside of his sister who lives in Clarion Co. She was very ill, but at this writing is somewhat better. On Thursday evening the younn folks of this vicinity spent a very enjoyable even -1 ing at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Fennell, jr. The time was spent in play ing, talking, etc. Everybody was highly , entertained and went away well pleased. Since the re opening of McKee's chapel, the trustees have secured the services of Messrs. John Milligan, Frank Dipner, and Thos. Sipe as additional members of the choir. The trustees and the congregation are to be congratulated upon their acqui sition. Mr. John Miller and family were thrown from their buggy while making a sharp curve on last Sunday morning. Strange to say that Mr. Miller was the only one who sustained any injuries, and his are but slight. Our roads as usual are iu a bad condi tion, there having been but little work done on them this season. There win bo no good reason assigned for tho pn;seut neglect of our public highways, as tho amount of taxes levied,, if put to proper use, would guarantee as good roads as can be found in any twp. of the county. We are sorry to state that our school di rectors have made a reduction in the teachers' wages this j-ear. thus making it impossible to secure the best teachers, as teachers, like all other classes of people, work where they get the mo.-:t pay. It h to lie hoped, however, since they have de termined to pay the teachers lower wages, that they will at least furnish the school houses with patent desks, charts, maps, etc. • The seats and desks lound in our scholl-houses are a disgrace to the com mnnity. Harvest is almost over, and indeed tho farmers will not bo sorry when they reach its teruiinns. as they have had an ex ceptionally long, hard <;ege of it this year They will, however, be quite well paid, as the crops are nearly up to, or over the a\- erage. Wheat was a large crop: oats mnch better than last year: potatoes fair, while the hay is nearly up to the standard. Corn seems to be the only product that is hkely to fall much below the average. X.

Mrs. C. C. Sullivaa and family,of Beaver Falls, is visiting her sister, Mrs. L. K. Lepley. This is Mrs. Sullivan's native town,"and sho likes to come back once in awhile. Mr. M. X. Greer, of Buffalo twp., »c --compained bis son Tom to school here last week. Mr. Greer was the guest of hi-; ,ooo of bonds outstanding,and he counting $2,030.95 as an asset that ex isted only in mind of this actuary of the county commissioners. This actuary also quibbles over the cost of the Center avenue bridge, lt is imma terial to the taxpayer what any particular part of the structure cost, but it will be news to some of them to learn that it will cost SIO,OOO when fully completed—not SB,OOO, as might be inferred from reading the statement (of grievance) from (twoof) the commissioners. Mr. Humphrey should have taken pride in making the price as much as the circumstances would permit since his name in large letters is on this really fine bridge. In addition to tho SIO,OOO, this bridge will cost the county — and remember, I think it a proper structure and worth to the county what it costs —I wish to call the attention of the taxpayers to the fact that Mr. Humphrey would not listen to those who did know and who informed hini that if he caused or permitted certain supports of the old bridge to be removed, it would fall, ordered them cut off, saying be would risk his own judgment. He ordered the supports cut and down went the bridge. As adistingu ishod Butler attorney stated the case: The commissioner is a philosopher; he wished to ascertain whether the attraction of the earth or that of the moon was the strong er; so he put the question lo a practical test, and demonstrated that the earth's attraction was the more powerful of the two." Mr. Taxpayer, it cost you $240 to keep up u temporary foot bridge until the new bridge would be put up; in addition to this it cost the traveling public some S6OO toll money to pass over the pontoon bridges built by Mr. Beach and others. Mr. Beach informed me that he alone took in $350. This does not take into account the loss suffered by business men in the vicinity, and the great inconvenience ex perienced by a populous community. This legal light from Billsbuig. Mr. John Humphrey, and bis electioneering com panion Kisk addon, from Allegheny town ship, undertake the task also of instruct ing me as to the law and my duty relative to the paying out of unseated land money, itc.,anil say, "We are aware that the prac tice of the present county treasurer and his predecessors has been to pay the town ships and boroughs without a warrant, but in doing so they do it at their own risk and without warraut of law.'' It Ims been the practice of my predecessors so to do for the last 40 or 50 years, and it appears to be a pretty safe one, since it is au 1 has been done right hero at the temple oi law without question on the part of any one until the legal light from Billsburg sets himself up as a lawyer, judge and jury. Mr. Taxpayer, whenever the court passes upon Hi in question, I shall feel relieved of a jireat responsibility, and will with pleasure follow its advice in the matter. '•We believe we have ample means to pay all that will be required to carry on ; the business of the county, - ' A., "uotwith standing assertions to the contrary," and to the effect that • the commissioners have not been levying enough taics to meet tho current expenses of the county.''
