The Republican State Convention met in Harrisburg last Thursday morn ing, in the Opera House; Senator Boief Penrose wan elected Temporary Chaii man, and afterwards continued as i>er manent, and he made a speech in which Prosperity was the leading theme. There were no contests for seats am hence no committee on credentials was appointed, bnt committees on rules and on platform were named which retir ed for consideration. J. Hay Brown of Lancaster; R Archibald of Lackawanna and Henrj N. Palmer of Luzerne were nominatei for Supreme Judge: and the vote was Brown 208. Archibald 25, and Palmer . —and Brown's nomination was mad* unanimous. Josiah R. Adams and Dininer Beebei of Philadelphia were nominated for Sa perior Judge, and the vote was Adams 191 and Beeber 47. Lieut. Col. Barnett, late of the 10th, was nominated for State Treasurer by acclamation. After the nominations were made, Dr. Flood of Meadville chairman of the committee on resolution, took the stage with a roll of typewritten papers in hand, It was known that whatever of contest there was to be in the conven tion would now come off, and the inter est, which had greatly slackened, began to brighten up. Col. Quay, who had taken his seat amid great applause early in the proceedings as a delegate from Beayer county, had left the con vention, possibly anticipating some un pleasant remarks. Before leaving he gave a proxy to Stephen B. Stone. Dr. Flood read the platform very de liberately, laying especial emphasis up on the planks relating to Gov. Stone and Col. Quay. These were applauded, as was every mention of President McKin ley, especially the demand for his re nomination in WOO. When be had fin ished the reading, Dr. Flood moved the adoption of the platform. Senator Will iam Flinn demanded recognition and was given the floor. He had scarcely more than began when a storm of hisses broke out. Facing the delegates who were thus manifesting their disapproval Senator Flinn said ' When you are through hissing, I will go on spep.king. I have my rights in this convention and no one can take them from me This brought forth a counter manifestation of approval, and Senator Penrose promptly demanded that the convention and audience accord the «peaker respect" ful attention Thereafter there were on demonstrations of disapproval, and Sen ator Flinn finished his remarks without interruption. He said; Some of the propositions in this plat form remind me very much of the con dition of affairs in Germany. There, when the people want a new member of the upper house of their Legislative body, the reigning monarch appoints him. Now, as I understand it. no such condition as this has confronted the peo ple of this State for at least for three quarters of a century. If this custom of allowing Governors to appoint mem bers of the United State* Senate where the Legislature have failed to elect •hould become the law of this country, it will be absolutely impossible for the people to change their representatives in tnat body. Almost 40 jier cent of the Republicans, and a majority of all the Representatives an.l Senators in the fireeent Legislature,are in favor ot mak n« a change in their rep resentatiye in the United States Senate, but for well-known reasons they have been unable to agree upon a proper man to elect to that position. "The action of the 56 Republican members of the Assembly has l>een crit ized by those who claim to own the Re publican party of the State. 1 will ad mit that our course was rather drastic, but it was the only way in which we could asswt our right to represent our constituents as they desired to l»e repre sented. For myself, lam responsible to no man and to no constituency save the one that elected me to my sent in the State Senate. "1 cannot agree to the sections in this platform indorsing the Governor for ap pointing Mr. Quay to succeed himself, nor to the personal indorsement of Mr. Siay, to whose election a majority of e representatives of the people are op posed. Not being able to agree to these sections, I desire to state my reasons for opposing them, and to demand my right as a free delegate to have my yote re corded against them. "With the greater portion of this plat form I ain heartily and enthusiastically in sympathy. There is, of course, the nsual raft of resolutions favoring reform and economy, for the same hand wrote this platform that has written all the Republican State platforms for 25 years and the same dictator dictated to the writer. Four years ago this convention passed a similar set of resolutions, but the action of this body had no effect up on the leaders who then controlled the Legislature, and, strange as it may seem, they are the same leaders who had controlled the convention that pass ed the resolutions, ami it is not likely that these will receive any more gra cious treatment. "The chief thing that 1 blame the Governor of Pennsylvania for is that lie did not take some of his |>olitical lieu tenants by the coat collar and shake them until they voted to tax corpora tions. Ijeer and whiskey, which would have given him plenty of revenue, so that the common school appropriation might have lieen left intact. Many such measures were proposed, but they were throttled by the lieutenants of the State machine. Had Gov. Stone shown the courage and determination thet Gov. Roosevelt has exhibited, he would have brought the man who obstructed the various revenue bills to a halt, and the school appropriation would have oeen saved. ' I am not prepared to sink my nan hood and sit ouiet, and upon this <|ues tion I demand a call of the roll. ' The roll was called amid entire si lence. Forty nine vote* were cist against the adoption of the rejtort of the committee on resolutions. Seventeen of the 22 delegates from Allegheny county were those thus recorded. The others were Joel Crawford.of Arm strong, T. C. Sanderson and J Hanks, of Bedford: Webster <;ritlitli of Cambria: John Gowland and S. 11 Wil liani!-. of Centre, John M Wigton ami George A Heeter. of Huntingdon D A. Leslie. John A. Stevenson anira and Wayne, and 12 from Philadelphia The vote was 192 to 4!«, ami its announcement was greeted with great applause from the ynav people Then. Mr. Rice, of the Committee on rnles, read hi- report which was a- fol lows. ' First That the chairman of the Re publican State committee shall be elect ed by the candidates nominated at the State convention and the perma nent chairman thereof &s soon as prccti •able after the adjournment of the State convention, and shall hold his office until his successor be elected. II there should be a vacancy caused by death, resignation or otherwise after the meet ins of the Repnblician State convention and before the next ensuing general election, the candidates nominated at the said convention and the permanent chairman aforesaid shall fill such vacan cy. but should a vacancy occur after the next ensuing general election, then the Republican State committee shall be called together by the secretaries of said committee and the majority of the members of said committee present shall select a chairman who shall serve until his successor is elected. Second- That the State committee shall be selected by the delegates to the State convention in each Senatorial dis trict, and shall hold their offices until their successors are elected, each of said districts being entisted to not less than two meml>ers provided, however, that where a Senatorial district consists of more than one county each county shall be entitled to one member , and provided further, that the chairman of the State committee shall have powt r to appoint 12 members of the State committee at large, who shall have the same voice in the management of the affairs of the party as the members selected from Senatorial districts. "Third That the time for holding the State convention of the Republican par ty shall be fixed by the State committee and the date for holding the said con vention. "Fourth- That the delegates to the State convention shall be chosen in the manner in which candidates for the General Assembly are nominated in ac cordance with the party rules in force in the respective counties "Fifth -that the representation in State conventions shall be based on the vote polled at the Presidential election preceding, one delegate being allotted to each Legislative district for every 2.000 Republican yotes, and an addition al delegate for a fraction exceeding 1,000 votes, each district to have at least one delegate. "Sixth—That the State committee shall hereafter have power to place in nomination candidates to fill any vacan cies upon the State ticket caused by death, resignation or otherwise, and the said committee shall also have power to present in nomination a candidate to fill any vacancy caused by death or resi gnation of any officer to be voted for bv the electors of the State, where such vacancy shall occur after the regular convention of the party has been held anil the vacancy is to be filled at the next ensuing general election "Seventh In all Congressional, Sena torial or judicial districts, where the delegates or conferees in said districts are unable to agree and make a nomi nation 55 days prior to the general elec tion, the chairman of the Republican State committee shall appoint one rep resentative Republican from each couti of the district, who shall become a part of the original body, and shall have t In same voice in the deliberations as the original members. In event the con vention or conference is then unable to agree within five days after the repre sentative Republicans are appointed as aforesaid, the chairman of the Repub lican State committee shall select a rep resentative Republican in the district who shall act as umpire or referee in making a nomination," They were adopted and the conven tion adjourned, having been in session less than four hours. Col. ynay left the city that evening saying he was going direct to Canada on a fishing excursion. There was a general scatteringof delegates and spec tators on the afternoon trains, and that night Harrisburg was comparatively deserted After the convention the candidates and Boies Penrose named Frank Reeder for chairman of the State Committee.
