JOHN DALZSLL'S • CANDIDACY.
IOW IS TBI TIHX.
We'lsboro Agitator.
The st atement that Mr. Dalsell is a
candidate for this position is gratifying in
itself, for his advancement to the Senate
would be creditable and advantageous to
the State. He is undoubtedly the ablest
representative Pennsylvania has in
either brancJh.dLCffflMl to-day; his per
sonal character is above reproach, and po
litically his leadership would be at once
inspiriting to the party and useful to the
State.
Mr. DalieU's announcement of his can
didacy has undoubtedly been called out by
recent statements that Mr. Quay has been
busy in making comoinatiuus far his own
re-election.and in "setting up the pins'
to secure the nomination and election of a
Legislature that will be subservient to bis
wiU. It is evident that if the Repnblieans
of Pennsylvania Xi*h to place in the Na
tional Senate a creditable and nseful rep
resentative they must at once turn their
attention to the selection of members of
the Legislature who will respect their
wishes. The question of the Senatorial
succession is really to be decided at the
primary eleotions, and it is high time for
the people who feel an interest in that
question to make airangetnents to send
men to Harrisbtug who care more for the
good name of the Btate and the interests of
their constituents than for the will of any
political wire-puller.
Mr. Dal sell's announcement comes none
too soon to arouse tbe people to effective
action on this subject, and it will undoubt
edly do muoh to crystal iie and direct the
general sentiment against Mr. Quay's re
election to a post for whioh ho is notori
ously unfitted. Mr. Dalsell's pledge of
fidelity in the discharge of his official du
ties and of loyalty "to the principles of his
party was not needed to reassure the citi
sens of the State who have any knowledge
of his official career, but it ia in fact a
pointed criticism of the official shortcom
ings and politioal disloyalty of Senator
Quay. »
It is now for the Republicans of Penn
sylvania to determine whether their Sena
torial delegation shall continue to excite
the contempt of the country, or whether
it shall be raiAd at leas't'to th'e lefel of that
of little Rhode Jsland. It is for them now
to determine whether they will perpetuate
a leadership that has within ten years
given ns in this Republican State two Dem
ocratic administrations, and whether they
perfer to b« represented in tbe Nations 1
councils by a mousing politician or by a
rising clean handed statesman. Tbe good
name of the Commonwealth and the wel
fare oi tbe party both call for a decided im
provemeut in our Senatorial delegation at
"Washington.
THE HAH WAIJTBD.
Sharon Herald.
Hon. John Dalsell, the able and honored
representative in Congress from Pittsburg,
has formally anuouueed that he is a can
didate for Senator, to succeed Senator
Quay, This will be welcome ne.ws to a
large proportion of the Republicans of
Pennsylvania, and to Republicans gener
ally.
They are tired of tho domination of a
man whose only olaim to the position he
holds is bis ability for political intrigue ami
manipulation; whose broadest idea ot
statesmanship is the personal profit and
honor it may bring to himself; whose name
is a synonim throughout the whole ooun
try for the most detestible form of maohine
politics; of a man whose greatest effort of
his Senatorial career of over four years was
a labored, halting defense of his person
al integrity from most damaging charges
made more than a year before; aud nnder
whioh he has been content to rest in the
meantime. Wo mean Senator Quay.
They want a man of moral and political
principle; a man with the brains and abil
ity to advocate and defend the interests ot
his country; of his State, and of his party.
They want a man whose honor and charac
ter does not have to be defended; a man of
ability and of broad views; a man who is a
representative of Republicanism in its
truest and best sense; a man who is a
statesman. They want a man who will
honor the office and his State; a man
amonit men.
They want such a man as John Dalsell.
A SKCBKT HOPS CUT DOWN.
New Tork Press.
When Senator Quay announced during
tbe week that he was not a candidate for
re-election as Benator he qualifiel his
statement by saying that if his friends
sbonld re-elect him there would be no
refusal on his part to accept again. There
has been a secret hope among Republicans
of the enontry tbac Mr. Quay would retire
from the Senatorship and from prominence
in the party, which was cnt down by his
declaration that he proposed to keep a
string on the place. * * * The Legisla
ture wiU be chosen in November next by
which Mr. Qnay's successor will be appoint
ed, and the early announcement by Quay
and Dalsell is proof that a hot contest will
take place. As between the two men
there is no question that the Keystone
State would take higher rank iu the Sen
ate with Mr. Dalsell representing it there
than with Mr. Quay, butit is for the Rep
ublicans of Pennsylvania to decide whether
they wish to be represented in national
oounsels by a politician or a rising states
man. , -

A DABK SHADOW.
Washington Dispatch.
Tho adhercuts of Senator Qnsy are do
ing all they can to belittle Mr. Dalzell's
candidacy, but it is known that for weeks
and months past the fact that be would be
a candidate has been a dark shadow across
the Junior Senator's pathway. Mr. Dalsell
has been in daily reoeipt of letters from
leading citizens and politicians of the
State urging him to come out for tho Sen
ate. The offers of assistance and tbe
hearty endorsement of politioal organisa
tions bave been vary

THE POPULAR VOTE.
ABOLISH THK COSFKBRKK SYSTEM.
Pittsburg Commercial G aiette.
The Republican papers throughout the
state are beginning to agitate the method
of nominating candidates for congress and
state senate next year. In a number oi
districts tho old throe-by-three conferre.-
system is still in vogue, and there is a
strong and well-nigh unanimous demano
among the newspapers for its abolition.
It is responsible for party disaster in many
instances and for narrow escapes from dis
aster in others. In view of the inherent
evils of the system the last Republican
state convention recommended that it be
done away with, and that nominations be
made by conventions made tnpon a basis
of the Republican vote of the several conr
ties composing tho district.
The Willismsport Gazette and Bulltiti
urges that action be taken at once looking
to a change of method in the Sixteenth
district. It says that distriot was nearly
lost to the Republicans last year because
a deadlock three by-three conference pre
vented a nomination until within a few
days of the election. The Republican
chairmen of the Eighteenth district wiil
meet at Harrisburg January 7th to formu
late some plan that will give ail the coun
ties their proper influence in nominating
conventions. The Tioga county Repub
lican committee some time ago unani
mously denounced the old conferree sys
tem as unrepublican and a breeder of dis
cord, and appointed a committee to con
with similar committees from other coun
ties of the district with a view of securing
a change.
The experience in the Twenty-fifth din.
trlot last year gave the people over there
a forcible object lesson on the conferre?
plan, and oommittees have since been try
ing to agree on some more satisfactory and
equitable method. The judicial deadlock
in the Bedford-Somerset district this fall,
and the prolonged and distracting struggle
for the nomination for congress in the
Twentieth district in 1890 ought to be suf
ficient to ooom the mischievous system in
the eyes of the people in that section.
The recommendation of the state con
vention ought to be aoted on throughout
the state- Where committees of confer
ence have not been appointed they should
be named without further delay in order
that a conclusion can be arrived at before
the time for making nominations again
comes around.
BIMILAB TROUBLE IN ANOTHER DISTRICT.
Williamaport Gaiette and Bulletin.
The question of nominating candidates
for congress by the conferree system or
otherwise remrins as yet unsettled, This
district came near losing its Congressman
to the Democrats in 1890, owing to the
de adlock conference preventing a nomina
tion being made until a few days before
the election The system was heartily
condemned at the time, and there wat
strong talk of effecting a change that
would be more satisfactory. The matter
was suggested to the other counties in the
district, but as yet no aotion has been
taken. .Next year the sum* difficulty will
confront the party. Why not talc a time
by the forelock and revise the system in
abvance, so that the same risk will not
attend nominations hi the futuref This is
a pertinent question, and should reoeive
early consideration.
SHOULD BB BNODGH.
Sharpsville Advertiser.
The several Republican county commit
tees of this Congressional district appear
to be at loggerheads, and eaj.iot agree
upon a plan making a change in nomiuat- j
ing a candidate. They *vtli meet again (
Jan. Otn and make another attempt.
It seems to us that the true method is j
the popular vote system. The statement
that this mode is more oofrup* taau tae
delegate system cannot bo veriiiod. If it
is, then the members of the Republican
party in this district must be male up ot'
*n aggregation of base corrupUoiusU. au 1
they do not deserve success. Ttie fa suit
af the last nominating convention, wu i
.ieyeral of the delegates in jail, should c >
enough to demauda from mo dele
gate system. Let u* see it tho (jommitt.ee.
.tre wise enough to do it. Let the voters,
the source of power, niaxe tho decision,
tad if a mistake i» made u'< one will ba to

POR P. 8. SENATORS TOO.
In the Senate last week, Mr. Tarpie
opened the speech-making with au able
pica for the election of Senators by a
popular vote, thus placiug tho rosponsi
bility in the premises where it belong*,
directly upon tbe people, and not upon
the Legislative "delegates."
Senator Turpie, after an historic sketch
of the organisation of the Government,
declared that there was nothing in the
history of the American people that should
induce Senators to check the movement,
or to distrust it, or to disallow its just in
fluence in the multiplication of tbe origin
al terms of the Federal compact. In con
clusion he said: "We are preparing for the
exhibition of a splendid international page
tut, commemorative of the discovery ami
settlement of this continent. It would be
most felioitous should we signalize it by
the submission and adoption oi tbis amend
ment—thus publishing to this grnnd coun
cil of the world's commerce and exoiiaugo
that the great Repnblic of the West hat',
given to its people direct control of the
legislative department of the Government.''
At the close of Mr. Turpie's speech the
oint resolution was referred to tho Com
mittee on Privileges and Elections.
DALZKLL ON THE BLBCTION OP U. 8. SENA
TORS.
At the meeting ot the Now England
| Society in New York, a few days ago, to
, celebrate the 271 st anniversary of the land
ing of the Pilgrim Fathers. Congressmnu
John Dalsell of Pa. who, as a
newcomer received a warm welcome, and
gave as the last toast: "New England in
Congress in Early Days." He said ia part:
There are two or threo thoughts connect
ed with the relation of early New England
to our system of government of which I
would speak in very brief terms and mere
ly by way of ontline.
The conception is a Tankee one of an
instrument in writing which, covering the
whole field of government, should secure
liberty by defining tho limits of power.
For my part I much prefer tho originn
idea of a writteu constitution as a chart u!'
government to the modern inodstrosity of
our day, which, under the name constitu
tion, gives to us a 'code of laws.
Provision -,vas made therein for repro

of the £uties.
I would tha» our constitution makers hr.
even followed their model more cloud;. .
I wouid that they bad made Senators t, o
representatives of tho States; but OIIOM ~
by the people of the States without inter
po-dug between the oleotcr and his Sena
tor tbe uncertain and oftentime servile ai d
oorrupt vote of a State Legislature. And
so far as that is concerned I soe no reason
why a machine ridden and boss riddt u
people, if any there should be, should u >
even go back, or forward, rather, to tho
Connecticut plan.
New England's strongest mark on the
Federal Constitution is the clause givii.ft
national control to the regulation of com

Ece. iii, 2
For a thonsand years in thy sight are
but as yesterday when it is past, and as a
watch in the night.—Psalms, xc, 4.
The year which is just uow saying fare
well to the world has borne itself toward
the Ampricnn people with generous court
esy. Indeed, if we recall the war clouds
which throw their deepening shadows
over so many other nations we are hall in
clined to add that the year has shown
something like favoritism in dealing with
ns. From the sea to the Rrckies no bugle
blast disturbs our serenity; from the Rock
ies to the »ea our fields have teemed with
plenty, and though a resounding din fills
the air it does not come from the brazen
lips of artillery, but from our busy manu
factories—the battlefields on which the
victories of peace are won.
So bid the old year a grateful farewell,
and extend the hand of welcome the new
| year —185*2.
The National Convention of this year
will be held June 7th, and as the delegate*
to it must be elected at least one month
before it convenes, or May 7th, the State
convention which will name the delegates
at-large, will have to meet before that
time, and it will probably be held on
Wednesday May 4th, or on one ot the pre
ceding Wednesdays, which will necessi
tate au early county primary this year.
We sec no reason why the State conven
tion should be held before the week begin
ning May Ist, and when the date for it is
fixed our County Committee will fix the
date for our primary.
