Republican National Conven
tion.
Some eight hundred delegates to the
National Convention, as many more al
ternates and thousands of spectators and
politicians assembled in Philadelphia
last week and this, for the purpose of
nominating a Republican National tick
et.
President McKinley's nomination was
unanimously conceded, and therefore
the sole talk and scheming was regard
ing the Vice Presidency.
There were several candidates for the
nomination for Vice President, neither
McKinley or Hanna would give the
slightest intimation as to who they pre
ferred, and Messrs Piatt of New York
and ynay of Pennsylvania set aliout to
force the nomination of Gov. Rosevelt
of New York, against his will and
wishes.
Rosevelt is a prospective candidate
for President four years hence, and he
feared to offend the big state bosses, but
gave out the following statement:—
"In view of the revival of the talk of
myself as a vice presidential candidate,
I have this to say; It is impossible too
deeply to express how touched I arn by
the attitndaof those delegates who have
wished me to take this nomination.
Moreover, it is not necessay to say how
thoroughly I understand the high honor
and dignity of the office, an office so
high and so honorable that it is well
worthy the ambition of any man in the
United States. But while I appreciate
all this to the full, t nevertheless feel
most deeply that the field of my best
usefulness to the public and to the party
isin New York State, and if the party
should see fit to renominate me for gov
ernor I can in that position help the na
tional ticket as in no other way. I very
earnestly ask that every friend of mine
in the convention respect my wish and
judgment in this matter."
"But still the villians pursued him."
Tuesday noon, four acres of human
ity, estimated to number sixteen thous
and came to order and silence when
chairman Ilanna rapped for order in
the big convention-hall in West Phila
delphia. The Convention was opeDed
with prayer and then Senator Hanna
greeted and welcomed the delegates in
a short speech, and introduced Senator
Walcott of Colorado as Temporary
Chairman, who made a long speech on
the issues of the day. Gov. Rosevelt
came in and received an ovation, ex-
Gov. Taylor of Kentucky also received
an ovation, the roll was called, the com
mittees were appointed; Rev. Levy, who
was cliaplain of the first Republican
Convention held in Philadelphia, forty
four years ago. led in prayer and then
the Convention adjourned till next day.
Yesterday the Convention met at
noon, the reports of the committees on
credentials and resolutions were receiv
ed and accepted; Henry Cabot Lodge of
Massachusetts was made Permanent
Chairman and ('has M. Johnson of Min
nesota, Secy, and tbe Convention ad
journed till 10 a ni. t<slay. Rosevelt
was quoted as saying that he would not
refuse the momination if it came from
the West.
The platform booms McKinley, pros
perity, gold-standard, protection and
reciprocity; talks of the Spanish war
and its sequences, favors a canal across
the isthmus, the peace conference at
Hague, the government of the islands,
etc.
Ilarrislnirg Notes.
On Thursday last Gov. Stone appoint
ed Jesse K. Ope, of Chester county,
dairy and food commissioner to take
the place of Maj Levi Wells, resigned.
Mr Cope is 55 years old, and live* on a
farm in East Bradford township,
Chester county, and devotes much
attention to raising Southdown sheep.
He is a Quaker, and while he has always
been a Republican, his friends say
be hail never taken an active part in
politics or been allied with a faction.
His appointment was made in the hojie
of mollifying the dairy and farming
interests at his home and strengthening
the machine legislative ticket at the
November election.

Now that our Ceutennial Celebration

ful success, a reprint of the notice of
the first meeting in its favor as it ap
peared in the CITIZEN of Oct. sth. 18' JO,
is of interest —
CENTENNIAL CELEBRATK >N
CERTAIN.
Probably fifty citizens assembled in
the court room, Friday evening, at the
call for a public meeting to take the in
itial steps preparatory to Butler Coun
ty's Centennial Celebration. On mo
tion of R C. McAboy John H. Negley
acted as Chairman, and"stated the pur
pose of the meeting, viz deciding
when we should celebrate and selecting
a committee ou preparations. Jas. M.
Maxwell and C. M Heineman were
chosen secretaries.
Lev. McQuistion moved to celebrate
in 1000 ami John Mitchell seconded. J.
D. Mcjunkin moved to amend in favor
of 1003 and J M Greer seconded.
After discussion by Walter Graham,
Jos. Vanderlin, Wm. Findley, Win
Forquer, W. B. Dodds and others, the
amendment was withdrawn and it was
unanimously decided to celebrate in
1900. W. A. Forquer then moved that
a general executive committee of ten
for organization lie appointed, with Mr.
Negley as chairman. This committee
to add to itself two good men from each
ward, borough and township in the
county, to appoint sub-committees on
finance, entertainment, music, program,
etc., and to select a date for the celebra
tion
The executive committee is to meet
at the call of the chairman and continue
the work W T hat time they will select
can only lie guessed at. We suggest
the long, balmy days of June as the
most pleasant and convenient time for
the county as a whole.
More meetings followed and at the
large one held in the Y. M. C. A. in
November, the Chairman was authoriz
ed to appoint an Executive Committee.
This he did, and they served faithfully,
and their names and portraits appear
aliove. But they were not the only
men who aided materially in making
the celebration a success; Committees
on Finance, Relics, Invitations, etc..
were apjiointed all whom did their
whole duty.
In onr issue of last week we noted the
proceedings of Tuesday and Wednesday
and make below a note of Thursday s
proceedings;
THE TlilitD I>AY.
On Thursday morning (June 14, 1000)
the weather was threatening, but dele
gations of firemen from all over the
country liegan coming in, and by 10
o'clock the Diamond and that part of
Main street were crowded. Each dele
gation was headed by a band, and there
was plenty of music. The Evans City
delegation was the largest, best dressed
and best drilled.
Chairman Neghy called the crowd
around the speaker s stand to order and
introduced Rev. J R Coulter who said
this was a great occasion,that the great
est mistake of a man's life was not Is
itig bom in Butler county, and then !
went on to sjwak of the rise and pro
gress of the county. Rev. Cotilter is
well up in years, and very feeble physi
eally, but he made a great speech.
Col. A. Blakely followed Rev. Coul
ter, paid him quite a compliment, and
then told stories of his early days in
Forward township, where his father
had a distillery, the second story of
which was sometimes used for church
services at which Rev. Black presided.
His story of the little Isiy in Allegheny
who ended his prayer one night with
the words "and now dissl bye dood
Dod, for we are going to Butler county
for six weeks" was heartily enjoyed by
all who heard it
The weather continued threatening
and Rev. Roth deferred his remarks mi
til after dinner, but, had to leave town;
James M. Galbreath.Esq. said he would
save his for the next Centennial, and
Josiah M. Thompson speaking,hut
the rain came on and the audience
sought shelter.

and the Fireman's Parade organized in
the following order.
Old Firemen on horseback.

made in another place; and at the
Speakers Stand on the Diamond Josiah
Thompson finished his sjieeeh, and
i speeches were made by Col. Willis Hul
I ings of Franklin, who told of the expe
j dition to Puerto Rico, during the Span
| i*h war, and the campaign there J W
1 Lee of Pittsbnrtf spoke on the oil devel
ojieuients and A. L. Campliell of Petro
i lia gave some facts regarding the Butler
I county oil fields, and a* nobody else
| cared to Hjieak. that ended that part of
I the program.
[ That evening the Firemen paraded,
with red fie. and the Fire Works dis
play (by the Paine Co. of N. Y. was the
| best ever seen in Butler; thousands
| crowded to the Ball Park,and thousands
1 more saw it from the streets and hills,
j The set pieces "Welcome, ' "1800 1900"
I and "Good Night. were something new
for Butler and the Centennial <>f the
year l'.HKj ended in a
BLAZE OF GLORY.
Centennial Notes and Visitors.
Mrs Samuel If. Crawford of Em leu
ton and Mrs. Vallie Sloan of Allegheny
• twp. were here last Thursday. They
are daughters of John Welsh, dee d,
who was Sheriff of Butler county from
IH-J7 to 1830. and they were born in the
old stone jail. They are now well up
in years, and both widows, but they
watched the procession, talked with old
friends and enjoyed the occasion.
Mrs. Rebecca Walter, whose spinning
in the Telegraph Office was noticed by
everybody , is a woman of 80 years, and
she is a sister of John Flemming, dee d,
who was killed in Butler some years ago
by a drunken Italian. She saw and
talked with Massy Harbison, when she
1 was a girl of abont N years, and Massy
lived on the island at Freer ort. Mrs.
Walter has been a widow for 25 years,
j her husband's name was Daniel, and
j she now lives alone at Great Belt.
1 John Kavlor of Kaylor was here, and
had his father Andrew's pocket-book,
l)onglit in Connellsville in 1817, the claw
I of a bear be shot himself, some Conti
i nental money, and srKentucky bill of
| 1 852.
Maj. F. C. Negley of Pittsburg is in
i his 70th year. He left Butler in
j anil has resided in Pittsburg since. His
charming wife, nee Dixon, accompanied
liim.
Two Pittsburg deteetives. employed
: by I. J. MoCandless, Chairman of the
1 Finance Committee, watched the rail
road stations, gave three "crooks" five
j minutes each to leave the town and
locked up a stubborn one; and there
was not a dollar lost during the Cen
tennial that we have heard of.
i v Though our hotels did a tremendous
i business there was very little drunken
I
j Our liverymen cared for thousands of
I rigs without losing or misplacing a sin
, gle one.
The triek bicycle rider sometimes had
a larger audience than the speaker, and
he is a wonder.
During license court this week. Col
| Thompson asserted that he had seen
more drunkenness in the harvest field
in one day than lie saw in Butler during
the whole three days of the Centennial
The issues of the CrrizKN of June 7
and I t and this week give a pretty fail
idea of our Centennial Celebration, and
we will mail a copy of each issue in a
single wrapper to any one address for
ten cents.
At the meeting of the Executive Com
mittee, Monday evening, the proposition
to have Miss White's stenographic re
ports of the addresses put in long hand
and published in book form was dis
cussed, and the decision, (owing to a
lack .if funds) was against it.
A very good likeness of Louis Stein,
Sr.. deed, appeared in the show window
of L. Stein A- Son, and this with the
relies made one of the most interesting
exhibits in town.
Two good portraits of John Negley,
Sr. dee'd appeared in the show windows
of J. N. Patterson and J. Boos.
Of all the decorations for the Cent.cn
iiia! none were handsomer than those of
(»eo. W Whitehill for his new three
story stone front on Main St. His show
window contained a mill scene, his win
dows were neatly decorated with bunt
ing while at night his whole front was
illuminated by colored lamps, and <' lii
nese lanterns.
Col. Hillings was the only speaker
who referred to the number of pretty
girls in town and lie spoke truthfully.
There's any number of pretty skirls on
the hills and in the valleys of Butler
county -pretty as you'll find anywhere
and their grand daughters will be at
the next Centennial.
The Janitors of the school buildings
did their best for the for the people who
made the school buildings their head
quarters.
Kxhibiting the relics HI the show win
dows was our original idea, and it wax
carried out, though the Armory Hall
had been rented and decorated for that
purpose.
The Souvenir. Sim Nixon's letter and
Le»nder Wise's Poem, with the ar
counts in the Weekly and daily pajiers
constitute the literature of the ocean
sion; and you want to save some for the
next Centennial.
Peter Keifer, of Pittsbufg born and
raised in Butler and now flit years of
age. He left Butler in lH4fl and has re.
sided in Pittsburg since, and came up to
see the < criteiinial and his relations,

DK.\R FKIK.VDS ONK AND ALL:
Owing to so many inquiries in mail
received from my friends at home in re
gard to my trip from New York to Man
ila I concluded to write it as near cor
rect from the start as possible and send
it to the Butler Citizen which 1 know
has a large circulation
Leaving N. V. harbor at I p. m , Nov.
4. we started on our long journey to
Manila, by six o'clock 1 was sea-sick, be
ing tny first experience, I felt almost
dead, it soon wore off and only came
back when we struck heavy seas. Be
ing miles to our next port we did
not see land till Nov. I f at about KJ-.ttO
a. m. We anchored in the harbor,wilra
tes were exchanged after which the
officers went ashore You know this is
the greatest fort in the world, there is
a gun placed there each year so it won't
!><• long till there Is- IMOO powerful guns
situated on a solid Mt. of rock. You
have all no doubt seen the picture
of Gibralter, although that would only
give yon a faint idea of its strength.
N'ov. 10 at p m we started for Mnl
ta which is !/0M miles from Gibralter.
We were cheered by thousands of Eug
lish soldiers as we passed out of the bur
Imr. The bands exchanged National
airs and again we were fast, leaying
sight of land which was Spain, Gibral
ter and the northern part of Africa, on
the afternoon of the 17th. we passed the
island of Velita owned by Italy where
she keeps her convicts. It looked from
the transport to !»• a very nice place,
Nov. I!) we arrived at Malta about day
break, after pulling into the harbor we
were received with much admiration.
Many salutes were fired after which we
saluted. This was a beautiful place
though the houses looked very strange,
being of white stone ami all built to
gether The fort here has more guns
than Gibralter but hasn't the protec
tion it has a cruiser once in the harbor
would have very little chance of escape
Next our whole regiment went ashore
for a dress parade, we had on brand
new uniforms and only wore our belts.
We received some very finecompliuients
from English officers. That afternoon
a liegt. of English soldiers left the bar
bor for South Africa Nov. 2ii we start
ed for Port Said 1112 miles nnd after an
uneventful trip of :{ days we arrived at
Port Said the mouth of the Suez Canal.
We stopped here long enough to take
on a pilot and electric machines for
our night trip through ihe canal. It
was a rather slow trip, as a vessel is not
allowed to run over 1 miles per hour
We grounded once on a bar but soon
pulled off. when daylight came all we
could see was the yellow candy desert
us far as tin- eye could reach, with the
exception of a few thistles and an oc
casional bunch of bushes, droves of
camels could be be seen cros-iing along,
also a few naked Egyptians who ran
along the shore begging for clothes,
money or most anything. We reached
the town of Suez about noon Nov. 2H,
after stopping long enough to let the
pilot off. We soon found ourselves far
out in the I{ei| sea. the water has a
black appearence and what I saw was
far from being red. Some time next
day we passed Alt. Sinai the place where
Moi-es received the Ten ('ocimandtneiits
On the afternoon i>t the lilst we passed
what is called the 12 Apostle Hocks,
they were only 12 large ,\lts. of rock in
a straight row, as land was not in sight
it has always kept me guessing how
they got there. The first of Dec. we
arrived at the city of Aden, the natives
here U'ing more uncivilized than any
we bad seen, and of a very small statue
Here we took on coal, we left next a.
m. land could lie seen throughout the
day though none of it seemed to l>e in
habitafed. We soon entered the Indian
ocean passing the Malacca Islands
On Dec !i we could see the coast of
Ceylon and by 10 a in. we had arrived
at Colombo the principal port and town
of Ceylon. I was ashore for 5 hours
here and saw very many interesting
sights, the natives had large ring" in
their ears arid nose* and I took notice
to some with what I would call a rivet,
right through the end of their nose
After going all aronnd town in a cart
hauled by a native I returned to the
boat and on Dec II we left for Singa
jsire 1,500 miles distant, arriving there
at about noon Dee, Hi, I was ashore here
anil alxiut the only difference I saw
from < 'olombo was more ('hinese and
.laps The upper class have small two
wheeled buggies and use the lower
class for horses t<> pull them around,lots
of our boys got into ride behind the two
legged horses, t hey would start »IT on a
trot which would equal thai of any or
dinary horse and keep it up. Thus far
we had a very pleasant trip having no
deaths and very little sickness Dec. 's
we left Singapore for Manila miles
distant, on the morning of Dec "2 lights
could be seen in Manila Bay so thiekly
that we thought we were entering the
city though it Was evening before we
found ourselves among a fleet, of Ameri
can Iron Clads. we were now lying
where Dewey did his deadly work
Dec _•:» we were unloadeii into cascoes
taken up the Pasig river to San I'edro,
M crest i, wh*-re after a few light skir
tuishes we were moved to what is call
ed Gutldluppe Ridge we lay iu the
trenches for a week and then were
brought bark to Manila to board the
I ran-port I lam nek for our present post.
1 am enjoying soldier life very well but
will be slad to get out of the heat
which is very intense over here. Well'
friends this was to lie on my trip so as I
am jfetting off the subject I will have
!to close, remaining your far away ,
