THEY are baying a great time in West Virginia over the election of a 1 S. Senator. The Democratic House un seated two Republican members, and the Republican Senate retaliated by unseating two Democratic members, so they are just where they started. When the Constitution of the United States is so amended as to require the election of United States Senators by the popular vote, we will have statesmen instead of politicians iu the U. S. Senate. For I Jal/.ell. Some sixty representative business men of Pittsbnrg and Allegheny, met last Saturday afternoon, and adopted the following resolutions. Whereas, Not only do the vast inter ests of Western Pennsylvania require the presence in the United States Sen ate of an alert and able champion of special understanding and sympathy with these interests, but furthermore, national and international guestions, arrived atid imjiending.demanil there al so in the interests and for the honor of the whole American people, the highest type of intelligence, integrity and con science that the country can afford, and Whereas, we have now in the House of Representatives such a man, who has faithfully, conscientiously and ably rep resented ns for the past twelve years in a manner which has not only given 11s a voice in the councils of the Nation, but also has honored our district by winning a plat e in the first rank of the people's representatives; now Is; it Resolved, that we earnestly request of the representatives of Allegheny county jn the legislature in the state of Penn sylvania, that they vote for, support, and In every manner in their power ex ert their influence toward the election of Hon. John Dalzell to the high office of Senator of the United States from Pennsylvania, and father that we earnestly appeal to the representatives of all the other counties of Western Pennsylvania to join ns in the pro motion of their and our common inter est* by likewise extending their sup port to Mr Dal/ell; and further lie it Resolved, that we do hereby com rnend the Hon. William Flinn for flu straight forward, manly anil honorable course he has taken in nominating, on the floors of the Senate of the State of Pennsylvania the Hon. John Dal/.ell for Senator, and we request him and his associates to eontinne the effort so well begun toward the final election of Hon John Dalzell to the Senate of the United States. And be it further Resolved, That a copy of these resoln tions lie sent by the secretary of this meeting to each legislator from Alle gheny county and Western Pennsylva nia. WASHINGTON.

M. A Two Months Canvass. a number of the Republicans of the county assembled in front of the the Court House last Saturday morning and stood around talking to each other until the rain drove them into the Court House corridor. At 1 P. M. they began a. c .-ernbling in the hall in the Younkins building, and half an hour later County Chairman ! McCollough called the meeting to order j and a calling of the roll showed that ! only about half of the regularly elected I Committeemen were present,but anur.i ber of substitutions were ma de, some of whom had proxies and some not, and these substitutes probably controlled the action of the meeting. Chairman McCollough announced that the object of the meeting was to 1 fix the time for holding the Primary. J. B. Cunningham of Clinton asked I for an expression from the candidates, as also did Dr Thomas of Fairview. Harry Caldwell of Bruin said he had sjjoken to a nnniber of candidates and that they all. with one exception, favor ed an early primary, and therefore he suggested, Tuesday, March 28, from 1 T P. M., as the time, the Return Judges to meet next day. Caldwell's suggestion was put in the form of a motion, and Cunningham moved to amend by substituting the first Saturday in May. This brought up the question of Sat nrd ay or Tuesday, and C. M. Brown of Harrisville moved to substitute the Sat urday precetding the time named by Caldwell, and argued for Saturday. John Womer defended the time fixed by his resolution of last year. He cited the vote of last year— one of the largest ever cast—said he did not want to be questioned at Sunday School and Church regarding the election that this was a question of morals that if a certain County Chairman referred to by another speaker had kept his office closed on Sunday it would not have been crowded with men seeking election news, etc. La 4t year's resolution was read, and J. S. Campbell of Cherry moved to re affirm it. Cunningham, Brown and Starr favored Saturday as a matter of conveinence—all motions and amend ments were withdrawn. Dr. DeWolf moved to hold the next Primary on Saturday: Caldwell spoke for Tuesday and Locke for Saturday, and the mo tion for Saturday carried by a vote of 20 to 18. Then Geo Cooper moved to have the Primary on Saturday, March 25tb, from Ito7P. M. JB. Cunningham moved to amend by making it the first Saturday in May; County Chairman McCollough ruled Cunningham's amendment out of order and the rising vote as announced was 21 for March 25, and 18 opposed Then Harlan Book moved that the Return Judges meet in Butler on the following Tuesday; Dr. DeWolf amend ed to Monday—and De Wolf's amend ment was accepted and carried. Why DeWolf's amendment was con sidered and Cunningham's ruled out is an open question. The time allowed a little over two months is entirely too short for any man not in the most vigorous of health to make a canvass of the county, dur ing the winter months. Two prospective candidates have al ready given it up and publish their cards of withdrawal. • » A CARD. Owing to ill health 1 am unable to make a canvass of the county for the office of Register and Recorder at this time. I hope to be able to ask for polit ical preferment at some future date, and in the meantime thank my friends for their cordial support and encourage ment thus far in the present campaign. S. M.

He says he is not * hem e ing for Quay's mantle, as , indicate j. The Democratic caucus nominated t George A. Jenks for U. S. Senator. Forty-three Republican members of 3 the House and Senate met in th Com j monwealth and signed a new argee j ment, anti-Quay in sentiment. r Quay was securing pledges, and it [ was said he would turn h:s men over to I D.»n Cameron. On Monday Gov-elect Stone and Sen f ator Quay arrived in Harrisburg from I Washington. The fight over the Sena- I atorship seemed to throw all prepara tions for the inauguration, next day, I into the shade Evervbody was claim , ing everything, but the only reported change was that of Shaw of Pittsburg. The anti-Qaav pledge had ">2 signers. Martin resigned as Secretary of the Commonwealth so as to be ready to qualify as State Senator; (Jen. Gobin resigned as State Senator, so as to be able to qualify asLient. Gov. Guffey was lining up the Democratic Senators against confirming Elkin as Attorney General. The David Martin Club of Philadelphia paraded the streets. There was talk of the new Cabinet, ch.-iirmen of the important committees, challenges, etc., but amid the wild con fusion. the battle for United States Senator predominated. The Inaugural. At noon, Wednesday, W. A. Stone was sworn in as Governor of Pennsyl vania. The ceremony took place in front of the new Capitol; Justice Wil liams administering the oath, and the Governor made an address to the throng to spectators, in which he dealt with state finances, preached economy and promised to be a good Governor. The Governor and his party then went to the Senate Chamber to witness the swearing in of Gen. Gobin as Lient. Gov., and after that to a pavilion erect ed in front of the Executive mansion to see the parade of regiments of the National Guard. That night the Gov. held a reception and there were fireworks on the river front. Two members of the Governor's Cabinet —John P. Elkin. of Indiana county, for Attorney General: and W. W. Greist, of Lancaster, for Sec'y of the Commonwealth, were announced. Klkin's continuation will be fought in the Senate by a combination of Republi cans and Democrats on account of the indemnity bond affair; and Orient's nomination was forced on Stone by the Lancaster county members, who threat ened to withdraw their support for Quay.
