No better reasons could be given for
Harrison's re-election than those stated in
Depew's speech placing him in nomination
at. Minneapolis, the latter part ef which
w as follows:
The great names which adorn the
roll of Republican statesmen ar.d soldiers
are still potent and popular. Tho great
measures of the Republican party are still
the best of the history of the Century.
The unequaled and unexampled story of
Republicanism in its promises and in its
achievement* stands unique in tho record
•f parties in governments which are free.
Bat we live in practical times, facing
practical issues which affect the business,
the labor and the prosperity of to day.
The campaign will be won or lost,not upon
the bad record of JamSS K. Polk, or of
Franklin Pieroe, or of James Buchanan—
not upon the good record of Lincoln or
Grant, or of Arthur, or of IJsyes.or of Gar
field. It will be won or lost upon the pol
ley, foreign and domestic, tho industrial
measures and the administrative acts of
the administration of Benjamin Harrison.
Whoever receives the nomination of this
convention will run upon the judgment of
the people, as to whether they have been
more prosperous and happy, whether the
oountry has been in a better condition at
home and stood more honorably abroad
under these last four years of Harrison and
Republican administration than during the
proceeding four years of Cleveland and
Democratic government.
Not since Thomas Jefferson has any ad
ministration been called upon to face and
solve so many or iuoh difficult problems as
those which have been exigent in our con
ditions. No administration since the or
ganisation of the Government has met dif
ficulties better or more to the satisfaction
of the American people.
Chili has been taught that, no matter
how small the antagonist, no community
can with safety insult the flag or murder
American sailow. Germany and England
have learned in Samoa that the United
States has become one of the powers of tho
World, and no matter how mighty the ad
versary, at every sacrifice, American hon
tm will ba maintained. The Bering Sea
question, which was the insurmountable
obstacle in the diplomacy of Cleveland and
ol Bayard, has been settled on a basis
which sustains tho American position un
til arbitration shall have determined our
right
The dollar of the country has boen plac
ed and kept in the standard of commercial
nations, and a coin has been agreed upon
witJi foreign Governments," which, by mak
ing bi-metalism the polioy of all nations,
may suooemfally solve all our financial
problems. The tariff tinkered with and
trifled with to the serions disturbance of
trade, and disaster to business since the
days of Washington, has been courageous
ly embodied into a code—a code which has
preserved the principle of theprotcction of
American indnstries. To it has been add
ed tenificent treaties and wise diploma
cy, which has opened to our farmers and
manufacturers the markets of other coun
tries.
The navy has been bnilded upon lines
whioh will protect American citizens and
American interests and the American flag
all over the world. The public debt has
been reduced. The maturing bonds have
been paid off. Tho public credit has been
maintained. The burdens of taxation have
been lightened. Two hundred millions of
currency have been added to the people's
money without disturbance of the ex
changes. Unexampled prosperity has
owrwned wise laws, and their wise admin
istration
The main question which divides us is,
to whom does the credit of all this belong f
Orators may stand upon this platform more
able and more eloquent than I, who will
paint in moro brilliant colors, but they
cannot put in more earnest thought the
affection and admiration of Republicans for
our distinguished Secretary of State. I
yield to no Republican, no matter from
which State he hails, in admiration and
respect l° r John Sheruiau. for Governor
McKinley, for Thomas B. Reed, for lowa's
ereat son, for tho favorites of Illinois,
Wisconsin and Michigan.
p u t when lam told that the credit for
the briUian 1 diplomacy of this administra
tion belongs exclusively to tho Secretary of
B'rte-. administration of its finances
to the Socretan- of the Treasury; for tho
construction of its ships to the' Secretary
of the Navy, for the introduction of Ameri
can work into Europe to the Secretary of
Sericulture; for the settlement, so far as
it has been settled, of tho currency ques
tion to Senator John ShermaD: for the
formulation of the tariff laws to Governor
McKinley; f° r the removal of tho re
strictions placed by foreign nations upon
the introduction of American pork to our
Ministers at Tans and Berlin, I ain tempt
ed to seriously inquire, who, during the
last four years, has boen President of the
United States, anyhow!
Crcsar, when he wrote those commen
taries which were the history of the con
quests of tturope under Lis leadership,
modestly tcok the position of Aeneas when
he said- "They are the narrative of events,
the whole of which I saw and the part of
*^!eneraV^Thomas, as the Kock of Cliicka
maugba occupies a place in our history
with Leonid is among the Greeks, except
that he succeeded where Leonidas failed.
The fiiiht of Joe Hooker above the clotuls
was the poetry of battle. The resistless
rush of Sheridan and his steed down the
valley of Shenandoah is the epic of our
Civil War. The march of Sherman from
Atlanta to the sea is tho supreme triumpn
of gallantry and strategy. It detracts
nothing from the spleudor of the fame, or
the merits of the deeds of the lieutenants,
to say that, having selected them with
marvelous sagacity and discretion, Grant
Htill remained the supreme commander 3f
the National Army.
\H the proposed acts of any adminis
tration, before they are formulated, are
passed upon in Cabinet council, aud the
measures and suggestions of tho ablest
secretaries would have failed with a lesser
President. But for the great good of the
country, and the benefit of the Republican
parly, they have succeeded, becauso of the
suggestive mind, the indomitable courage,
thointelligent appreciation of situations,
and the grand magnanimity of Benjamin
Harrison. , „ .
It is an undisputed fact tnat dunng the
few months when both the Secretary of
the State and the Secretary of tho Treasury
were ill, the President personally assumed
thv dotles of the BUte and Treasury
Departments, and both with e<[ual success
Tho Secretarv of Stato, in accepting his
portfolio. un<Jer President Uartield, wrote:
"Your administration must be made
brilliantly successful and strong in iho
confidence and pride of the people. n«>t at
all advertising its energies for re-election,
and yet compelling that result by the logic
of events and by the imperious necessities
of the situation."
Garfield fell before the bullet of the as
sassin, and Mr. Blaine retired to private
life. General Harrison invited hftn to
take up that unfinished diplomatic career,
where its threads had been so tragically
broken. lie entered tho Cabinet. He re
sumed his work, and has won a higher
place in our history. The prophecy he
. made for Garfield has been superbly ful
filled by President Harrison. In the
language of Mr. Blaine, ''the president
bar <-r,tjapifnt"rt a ic-oleClTuu l>y tiiO logic ol
events, and the imperious necessities of
the situation."
Tho man who is nominated hero, to
win, must carry a certain well-known
number of the doubtful States. Patrick
Henry, in the convention which started
rolling the ball of independence of the
Colonies from Great Britain, said: " I have
but one lamp by which my feet are guided
and that is the lamp of experience. I
know of no way of judging of the future
but by tho past."
New York was carried in 1880 by Hen.
Garfield, and in every important election
since that time we have done our best.
Wo have put forward our ablest, our most
popular, our must brilliant leaders for
Governor and Stato officers, to suffer
constant defeat. The only light which
illumines the sun of hope, the dark record
of those 12 years is the fact that, in 1888,
the Stato of New York was triumphantly
carried by President Harrison, lie carried
it then as a gallant soldier, a wise Senator,
a statesman who inspired confidence by
his public utterances in daily speeches
from the commencement of the canvass to
its close. He still has all these claims,
and in addition, an administration beyond
criticism and rich with the elements of
popularity with which to crrry New Y'ork
again.
Ancestry helps in the old world, and
handicaps"in the new. There is but one
distinguished example of a son overconiing
the limitations imposed by the pre-eminent
fame of his father and then rising above it
and that was when the younger Pitt be
came greater than Chatham.
With an ancestor a signer of tho Dccla
ration of Independence, and another who
saved tho Northwest from savagery, and
gave it to civilization and empire, anil who
'■was also President of the I'nited States, a
poor and unknown lawyer of Indiana has
risen by his unaided efforts to such distinc
tion as lawyer, orator, soldier, statesman
and President, that he reflects more credit
upon his ancestors than they have devolv
ed upon him, and presents in American
history the parallel of the younger Pitt.
By the grand record of a wise and popu
lar administration; by tho strength gained
in frequent contact with people; in won
derfully versatile and telicitous speech; by
tho claims of a pure life in public and in
the simplicity of a typical Aoieriooii home,
I nominate Benjamin Harrison.
TnK other*evening wo heard an nltra-
Quayite assert that Harrison wns nominat
ed by tho Souther n States, but if ho looks
at the figures of the first, last and only
ballot taken, he will or onght to change
his mind on that point.
Thirty-focT votes from Illinois, thirty -
four from Indiana, twenty from lowa,
eleven from Kansas, eigh'een from Massa
chusetts, fifteen from Nebraska, twenty
seven from N'ew York, eight from South
Dakota and 10 each from Wisconsin and
Pennsylvania Joes not look as though all
Harrison's strength came from tho South.
And besides this as Harrison was tho
second choice of the majority of the Re
publicans of this Stato, he should havo
received the vote of all its delegation alter
Rlaine was dropped, and would have, had
they acted for themselves and not have
been subservient to the will of another.
Our State delegation, as usual, presented
the most sorrowful spectacle in Uioconven
tion.
PRESIDENT HARRISON.
Philadelphia Press. Republican.
President Harrison's intellectual strength,
integrity of purpose, high character and
earnest patriotism are no longer called in
question by his most virulent enemies.
Irrho single count in tho indictment u>
which they still adhere is that ho is a cold
man. Wo snspect that tho President is at
times a little chilly to the innumerable
applicants for offices and thoir lriends who
besot him at all availablo opportunities.
There aro 100,000 Federal offices, and for
each there aro often ten applicants, and
each applicant will have on the avorajto
not less than ten activo backers. To this
array besetting him like a swarm of locusts
we would not bo surprised if the l*resident
at times forgot to be genial, and oven fail
ed to conceal his sense of irritation at the
ceaseless importunities of office-seekers
and offico-brokers.
The average American sees in Harrison
the embodiment of all the virtues he is ac
customed to look for in a President. Ho
has filled tho measure of high requirement
for the office in a manner which leaves
even his enemies scarcely any room lor
criticism. Tho country has thrived under
his Administration, tho peoplo have been
contented, tho laws enforced, foreign ua
tions have been compelled to respect our
wishes, and every department of the Gov
ernment has been well managod. Wo be
lieve tho sober business sense of the coun
try will say let—not well enough merely,
but—excellent alono, and continue an
Administration which has established its
capacity and fitness by proofs so incon
testable and conclusive.
New. York Press.
I a President Harrison tho Ropublieuu
party has a candidate for whom neither
apology nor defense is required. His re
cord as a soldier, as a legislator and as
President is known of all meu, and the
more it is studied tho more admirable it
appears. The President has been tho soul
of his administration. However able hi s
lieutenants, he has been the commander
in chief; and the stamp of Harrison is on
all the great achievements that have mark
ed his three years of government. The
two features of President Harrison's pre -
cnt term that will take rank among the
great events of this generation are the en
actment of the McKinley law aud out
spoken and aggressive assertion of A«ne*i
can rights in the controversies with tirea.
Brittain aud with Chili. Prompted by at
Eatriotism that knew no guide save the
onor and interests of the I'nitcd States,
President Harrison was as resolute in deal
ing with powerful England as with the South
American republic. Tho ultimatum which
the President sent to Chili, when that na
tion refused to give satisfaction for the
murder of American Sailors and the insult
to the American uniform, was no more
positive in tone than the final notice to
Lord Salisbury on tho subject of Behring
Sea. Tho result is that tho American llag
and the American name are regarded
everywhere with greater respect than before
President Harrison assumed the reins ol
ofliee. England has receded from her men
acing position and has agreed to arbitra
tion, aud neither Chili nor any other State
will iusult.tho flag or do willful harm to
citizens of tho United States in the future.
EVERY young man in this county .should
both read and study tho Republican plat
form, as printed on this page, aud inquire
of their oldors regarding the poiutu they do
not understand. No better educational
matter will appear in print.
COKUBKXSUAV JOHN DALZELI. may not
bo Senator this time but as he has been re
nominated he will be elected to retain
the seat ho has in the House. He and
Congressman Brosius will keep one end of
the capitol free from tho criticism that
Pennsylvania is voiceless in our national
councils.— Ex.
AT Harrisburg, Tuesday, Dunlap of

HARRISON
AND KKII>.
At the Republican National Convention
at Minneapolis last Friday, Benjamin
Harrison, of Indiana, Received 535
Votes on First Ballot, which was a
Majority of 166 over all Opposition, and
at the Kvening Session Mr. Whiteiaw
Reid, of New York, was Nominated
for Vice President by Acclamation.
At the opening hour, Thursday, not m«>re
than one third of the delegates were present
but they so<m came in and the convention
was called to ordn.r: prayer was offered >»nd
then Chairman McKinley 'tated that the
regular order of business was the report of
the committee in credentials, and recog
nized Chairman Cogswell of that Com
mittee, but Gen. Cogswell arose and said
that bis Committee was not yot ready to
report, but expected to be by 8 p. m.
Senator Cullom. of Illinois, offered the
following resolution, which went to the
Committee on Resolutions, without debate:
"Resolved, That the World's-Columbian
exposition to be inaugurated in the city ol
Chicago in 189.1 is rightfully considered by
all classes of our citizens regardless of their
political affiliation as a great national tin
dertaking and that, in reeoguitiou of its
character and importance, Congress ought
promptly to provide by appropriate legis
lation such reasonable appropriation and
aid thereof as will enable the government
fully to discharge its expressed and implied
obligation incident thereto, as will insure
the attainment of such results therefrom as
will be commensurate with the dignity,
progress and development of a tree and
enlightened people."
A resolution giving all old soldiers in
the town the privilege of the floor also
went to the Committoe, and then the
convention adjourned till 8 p. si.
At 8:30 the convention reassembled and
there was talk of forcing a ballot that
night.
Chauney Depew gave Col. Dick Thomp
son, of Indiana, a puff and secured him a
seat on the platform, and Col. Dick made
a speech.
<ien. Cogswell mounted the platform,
said his Committee had just finished its
work and made a verbal report on tho con
tent for s<wt« from Alabama. Louisana,
South Carolina, Mississippi, Kentucky, X.
Carolina, etc. Mr. Wallace, of New V ork ;
presented a written minority report on the
Alabama cases, a long discussion ensued,
and the majority report was adopted by a
vote of 402 to 432, which was considered a
I lata, m victory.
Friday's Session.
Chairman McKinley called the con
vention to order at 11:37 A. m. Tho con
sideration of the report of the Committee
on credentials was resumed; no further
opposition was made to the majority re
port and it was adopted; two delegates
each from Indian and Alaska territories
were admitted; tho Michigan delegation
retired for couusnltation; the roll ol states
was called for members of the National
Committee and David Martin, of Phila
delphia, was named for Pennsylvania;
Mrs. J. Kllen Foster was allowed to ad
dress the convention in tho interest ol
fomale suil'rago. Chairman McKinley then
announced that the next order of business
was tho presentation'of names for the
nomination for President; a mighty cheer
went up from 1,500 throats and tho call of
states began. When Colorado was called,
Senator Wollcot, or Colorado, mounted
the platform and in n speech in which ho
showed his personal feeling against Harri
son, nominated Blaine. Bis speech was
loudly applauded, and then tho roll call
went on until ludiuna was reached, when
."Uncle Dick" Thompson, of Indiana,
mounted tho platform and in a short
speech nominated Harrison, and another
tumult followed. When Michi.au was
reached a spectator asked "What's tho
"TuatW .M/rvif nrif! .somebody re
■ ponded "Ho'snot in it. hustis, ol Min
neapolis, seconded the nomination of
Blaine, aud some ladies on the platform
started another demonstration.
Chauncey Depow seconded Harrison's
nomination, in the speech of the day, and
another tumult followed; pictures of liar
rison aud Blaiuo were carried through tho
isles and then tho convention settled into
"deep silence" for tho voting. Alabama
started o(F with 13 votes for Harrison, 7
for MoKinley and none for Hlaine, which
was warning of a change of program 011
the part of the (Juay-Piatt crowd; the
Pennsylvania delegation went out for
consultation; California's 9and Colorado s
8 votes went lor Blaine; Illinois gave Har
rison 34 and Hlaine 14; Indiana's 30 went for
Harrison; lowa gavo Harrison 20 Hlaine 5
and MoKinloy 1; Kansas gave Harrison 11
and MoKinley 9; Maine gave liluine its 12

35 and McKinley 10; Ohio gave Harrison
1 and McKinley 45—McKinley voted lor
Harrison—Pennsylvania gave Harrison 19,
lilaine 3 aud McKinley 42—yuay voted
for McKinley.
As the roll proceeded and it was scon
that Harrison was nominated on first
ballot, McKinley left the chair and made
a motion to nominate Harrison by accla
mation.. but somebody raised a point of
order, tho motion was withdrawn, and the
poll completed. Harrison had 535, Hlaine
182, McKinley IS2, Heed 4 and Lincoln 1,
and tho nomination was made uuaminous.
A motion to take a recess was agreed to
and tho convention adjourned till 8 I\ M .

The evening session was a short one.
By general consent the selection ol a can
didate for Vice President was left to the
delegation from N'ew York, and it selected
Whitelaw Reid, publisher of the Tribune.
Thomas B. Heed, of Maine, was also
named, by hi - name was withdrawn. Reid
of New Vork wa • nominated; telegrams
were received; resolutions were passed
thanking everybody, and the convention
adjourned sin*- 'fo -
At the White House, that afternoon the
Piesideut, some m nbors of the Cabinet
and other friends ruccivod the news, and
when it becj4ino known that Harrison was
re nominated they felt exceedingly happy
and ther<' was quite a domestic scene.
To nine newspaper men who e.illed, the
President made one ol his happy live
minute speeches, and voieed his gratitude
for the appreciation and sipport of the
Republican Alamos.
At Indianapolis that evening the people
, were wild with enthusiasm,and the streets
were parradod.
The Platform Committee's Work.
The silver men of the Platform Commit
tee from the lir~t manifested an earnest
desire for the success of their parly—with
free coinage if possible; without it if the
majority so ruled. They were outvoted
three to two in the sub committee. Then
they appealed to the whole committee and
loyally submitted their views for its
decision. Successive propositions made
by them for unrestricted free coinage, for
free coinage with restrictions, lor free
coinage for the products of Americans
mines, and coinage with a soignorage at
tached for the products of other mines,
aud, when they found themselves in a
more hopeless minority in the whole com
mittee than they had been in this sub
committee, they fell into the ranks aud ac
cepted a plank favoring bimetalisin at a
ratio to bu liked by Congreess.
Senators Dubois and Shoup, and Con
gressman Sweet, of Idaho, m ule powerful
appeal; to the committee on behalf of the
lead mining industry of tho silver produc
ing States, and succeeded in having insert
ed iu the tariff plank a denunciation of the
Democratic party for their "attacks 011
wool, lead ores, aud bullion, tho chief pro
duel- of several States."
.ludgo A. W. Tourgce, with his Afro
American following, in i.-trd that the plat
form should toko bold <•( tho fyucEtga oT
colored men in the South. The committee
had as much difficulty in convincing him
and the colored members of tho committee
that these were matters of Stale jurisdic
tion, with which it was impossible for the
United States to interfere, as Mr. Maine
had in persuading Baron Pava that tho
United States (loremineut was not re
sponsible for the Italian hnel-ings iu New
Orleans.
Miss Su-an 15. Anthony. Uev. I>r, Olym
iihia Brown, and other eloquent female
a Ivoeat sof woman sutlrago, tried earn
estly to have the words 'male or femala"
inserted after "white or black" in the free

committee adhered to the language of the
last platform.
The Nicaragua Canal Company secured
an expression of opinion in favor of Ameri
can control df that enterprise, but failed to
secure the irieertioii of H recommendation
that "Amerii' Mi capital be devoted to the
enterprise.Friend* of the World's Pair
procured the admission by the committee
of the resolution which they introduced iu

A carefully prepared plan was inserted
to cover the sectional school issues in the
Northwestern States. Lastly, the wise
aud statesmanlike conduct of all'airs by
"tho present Administration," at home and

The Platform,
The representative's of the Republicans
of the United States, assembled in general
convention on the shoros ol the Mississip
pi River, the everlasting bond of an inde
structible Republic, whose most glorious
chapter of history is the record of tho Re
publican party, congratulate their country
men 011 the majestic march of the nation
under the banners inscribed with the prin
ciples of our plat-brin of 188H, vindicated
by victory at the polls and prosperity in
our fields, workshops and mines, and mako
the following declaration of principle.-:
We reaffirm the American doctrine ol
protection. We call attention to its
growth abroad. We maintain that tho
prosperous condition of onr country is
largely duo to the wise revenue legislation
of the Republican Congress.
We beltove that all articles which can
not be produced in the United States, ex
cept luxuries, should be admitted free of
duty, and that ou all imports coming into
competition with tlic productdwith Ameri
can labor there should be levied duties
equal to the difference between wages
abroad and at home.*
We assert that the prices of manufactur
ed articles of general consumption have
been reduced under the operations of tho
tariff act of I^9o.
We denounce the offorts of tho Demo
cratic majority of the Houso of ltoprrsent
atives to destyjy our taritl laws, as is man
ifested by their attacks upon wool, lead
and lead ores, the chief product of a num
ber of States, and we ask the people for
their judgments thereon.
We point to tho success of the Republi
can policy of reciprocity, under which our
export trade has vastly increased, and new
and enlarged markets have been opened
for the products of our farms and work
shops. Wo remind the people of the bitter
opposition of the Democratic party to Ibis
practical business measure: and claim that
executed by a Republican Administration,
our present laws will eventually give ns
control of the trade of the world.
The American people from tradition and
interest favor bimetallism.and the Kepubli
eau party demands the use of both sold
and silver as standard money, with sueh
restrictions, and under snch provisions, to
bo determined by legislation, as wHI se-
cure the maintenance of the parity of values
of the two metals, so that the purchasing
and debt paying potfer of the dollar,
whether of silver, gold or paper, shall be
at all times equal. The interests ot the
producers of the country, its farmers and
its working men.demand that every dollar,
paper or coin, issued by the Government
shall bo as good as any other. We com
mend the wise and patriotic steps already
taken by our Government to secure an in
ternational conference, to adopt such
measures as will insure a parity of value
between gold and silver for nso as money
throughout the world.
We demand that every citizen of the
United iStales shall be allowed to cast one
free and unrestricted ballot in all public
electionii, and thai such ballot shall be
counted and returned as east; that such
laws .lin.ll be enacted and enforced a will
secure to every citizen, be he rich or poor,
native or foreign born, white or black, his
sovereign right guaranteed by the Con
stitution.
The free and honest popular ballot, the
jast and e<jual representation of all the
people, as well as their just and equal pro
tection under the laws, are the foundation
of our republican institutions, and the
party will never relent its efforts until the
integrity of the ballot and the pnrity of
elections shall be fully guaranteed and
protected in every State.
We denounce the continued inhuman
outrages perpetrated upon American
citizens for political reasons in certain
southern States of the Union.
We favor the extension of onr foreign
commerce; the restoration of onr merean
tile marine by home bnilt ships and the
creation of a navy for the protection of onr
national interests and the honor of our

We reatlirm onr approval of the Monroe
doctrine and believe in the achievement of
the manifest destiny of the Republic in its
broadest senso.
We favor the enactment of more string
ent laws and regulations for the restriction
ofcriminal pauper and contract emigration.
We favor etlicient legislation by Con
gross to protect the life and limbs of em
ployees of transportation companies en
gaged in carrying on interstate commerce
and recommend legislation by the re
spective States that will protect employees
engaged in State commerce in mining and
manufacturing.
The Republican party has always been
the champion of the oppressed and recog
nizes the dignity of mauhood, irrespective
of faith, color or nationality; it sympathizes
with the cause of home rule in Ireland and
protests against the persecution of the Jews
of Russia.
Tho ultimate reliance of free popular
government is the intelligence of the peo
ple and tho maintenance of freedom among
its citizens. We therefore declare anew
our devotion to liberty of thought and con
science, of speech and press, and approve
all agencies and instrumentalities which
contribute tojtho education <>f the children of
the 'and; but while insisting upon the full
est measure of religions liberty, we are op
posed to any union of Church and State.
We reaffirm our opposition declared in
tho Republican platform of 1888 to all com
binations of capital organized in trusts or
otherwise, to control aibitrarily the condi
tion of trade among our citizens. We
heartily indorse tho action already taken
upon this subject, and ask for such further
legislation as may be required to remedy
any defects iu existing laws, and to render
iheir enforcement more complete and ef
fective.
We approve the policy ol extending to
towns, villages and rural communities the
advantages of the free delivery service now
enjoyed by- the larger cities of the country,
and rcallirm the declaration contained in
the Republican platform of 1888, pledging
the reduction of letter postage to 1 cent at
the earliest possible moment consistent
with the maintenance of the Po.-L Otlieo
I HinlLLe highest class of postal
service.
We commend tho spirit and evidence of
reform in the civil servico and the wise
and consistent enforcement by tho Repub
lican party of the law rogulathig tho

Tho construction of tho Nicaragua Canal
is ol the highest importance to tins Ameri

Wo favor the admission of tho remain
ing Territories at tho earliest practicable
date, having duo regard for tho interests,
of the people of tho Territories, and of fie

appointed lor the Territories should bo
selected from l>ona fide residents thereof,

The World's Columbian Exposition is a

liould promptly enact such reasonable leg

We sympathize with all wise and legiti

has enjoyed remarkable prosperity, and
the dignity and honor of tho Nation, at

The Pennsylyania Delegation.
Tin) Harrison nion in tho delegation did
not break loose until Chaancey Depew
seionded tho nomination of tho President.
Then when it seemed that tho entire crowd
of 12,000 people had gone mad. Graham,
Magee, Piston, Kuhn. Willard and a dozen
more Penn-ylvani HIS joined iu the ap
plause. Before the nomination speeches
were concluded tho Harrison men had
demonstrated moro than once that they
wore in tho majority, aud some of the
Pennsylvania!!.- wcro talking of casting
the solid vote of the delegation for the
President. l»isston was iu favor of that,
aud fried to persuade Quay to do it. Dave
Martin said ho thought ho might get in
under the Harrison flag after all; but when
the roll call was ordered, (/nay asked tho
delegation to retire for consultation as to
hovi' :hty should vote. The entire dele
gatiou left tho hall with Iho exception of
Ouay. lie remained boliind to seo how
the McKinley stampede would work, lie
is -aid to have caused to be circulated
among the Harrison States, the report that
Pennsylvania would vote solidly for Mc-
Kinley.
While bo was watching the result of the
balloting the other delegates who wero
outside wero becoming impatient to get
back to the hall. Quay sont word out to
them that he would soon be with them,
lie said he was trying to get tho drift of
the convention.
Mugce and George Graham heard that
the balloting was in progress, and they de
clined to wait for Quay, telling Chairman
lteedor to record theui tor Harrison. They
returned to the tloor of the convention
and Magce then heard that Quay had in
formed a number ot the Harrison leaders
that Pennsylvania was solid for McKinley,
and he started off to deny the report, 110
visited every State delegation and told the
Harrison leader in it that the President
would surely get twelve votes in Pennsyl
vania, and they would thus prevent the
Harrison men outside from going oyer to
MeKinloy. did not go out to join his
delegation until after Illinois had voted.
At the cancus, Quay told his followers
in the delegation that he thought the timo
had < omo to drop Maine and vote for Mc-
Kinley. The delegates returned to the
convention just as Ohio was being polled
in its vote for McKinley. Quay took fresh
hope aud gave notice to all of his friends
to stand up for McKinley. He was about
to order another poll of delegation when
I>ave Martin told him he thought'it would
have more effect on the convention to have
the secretary of the convention poll the
delegation.
accepted Martin* advice and when
Pennsylvania was called he said: "There
is a difference of opinion among the Penn
vylvania delegation, and I a*k for a poll
of the delegation." .'n-i before polling
the delegation a New York delegate asked
Quay what ho wa going to «10, and the
Senator an.-wo red: "Wr Hgodown with the
:hip." The roll rail w.. ; followed with in
tense interest. Disston, Klkins, Graham,
and Magee were applauded when they east
their rotes for Harrison. Qnay wa- also
applauded when he cast his vote for Mr
K inley.
The poll of the delegation resulted in
Harrison getting lit votes. Mi Kin ley 42.

J. A. Sharsbeger, of the Twelfth district,
was absent, but his alternate. Mr. Shiffert,
voted as he would have done, bad he been
present, for Harrison. Galusha A. Grow
wa.-: unaMe to atteild the convention. He
was for Harrison, but his alternate voted
for McKinley. The only man in the delo
gut inn who violated his instructions was
John C. Lower, of the Nineteenth Dis
trict. He was instructed tor Harrison and
voted for McKinlev.
After tho vote had been announced Quay
stood nt the head of the delegation to
watch tho efTect of Pennsylvania.-;' action
upon the other States. It did not cause
the Harrison column to waver, however,
and when he saw the votes steadily piling
up for the President he turned to General
Peeler and said it is all over, and immedi
ately lost all interest in the proceedings,
lie picked up his hat and said he thought
he would retire, but just theu Texas was
called and her twenty-two votes gave
Harrison a majority of tho convention, and
there was another outbreak of en
thusiasm.
Quay remained until it had subsided.
As he was about to leave Congressman
Bontclle,.of Maine, came tip and Quay
said: "They do not seem to have any
further uso for us. and I am going out."
"Well 1 am about through myself." said
Roiltelle Quay told Keedor and Martin
that he would not be back again and
directed them to go along with New York
m the naming of a Vice President.
"Don't make any light against the Har
rison people," was his parting injunction
as he departed from the hall with (his son
Dick.
The Pennsylvania delegates who voted
for Harrison are deserving of great credit
from their constituencies. Tlicy withstood
the greatest kind id' pressure and assisted
ycry materially in breaking tho scheme to
stampede the convention for McKinley.
