OUR CANDIDATES
The State Convention which met last
week at Harrisburg- has presented to the
Republicans of 'the State a iieket, which
strongly commends itself to their sup
port. It was not in all respects our
choice, as riur readers well know, but it
is, nevertheless, one which We heartily
endorse and which we call on all good
Republicank to work zealously to elect..
GEN. NARTHANFT, our nominee
fot• Governor, is no new name to Om Ile
publican voters of the State, I I is brOlia nt
military record and great personal worth,
made him the nominee of the party for
Auditor General in 1`65, and under his
lead we achieved a magnificent victory.
tee three years' service he was nomi
nhted for that position without opposi
tion, ' and was again Vriumplianily
elected. By. the death of ('id. Stanton,
after his electionlitig, Fall, Gen. Hart
mat would have been without a sue
essor—artlie—elo-se of his fie sent — fc ,
and the Legislature in its action to pro
vide for this contingency, with almmt
unanimous voice, called Gen. llartrann.w
conthfue this term until a successor
s'h . ottld ho chosen at, the coming elyetion.
Seldom, indeed, has any man passed
tiliough nix years of responsible
life with so little criticism and such
marked approval, as has Gee John F.
In the selection of a candidate Cqr
Supreme Judge, the convention 'was
equally fortunate. lION. ULYSSES
MERCUR, who is now serving
distinction in Congress, is a jinist
of adMitted ability and experience
and - one who will do greet erotic(
to the Supreme Bench. He 11:1, always
beer thoroughly identilkd iittli the
Republican party, and his lion,hiatiint
will arouse inneh enthusiasm in our
strongholds—the northern counties of
the State.
GEN. HARRISON ALLEN, our
nominee for Auditor licneral, has
an excellmit record as a brave sol
dier. He is an able lawyer, 'eel
has served with distinction in - both
brandies of the I.,eghlature. lie has
just completed his tel as Senator and
his recent legislative experience will
render him thoroughly familia? with all
questions which may arise before liiimas
Auditor General: General Allen is an
able and 41iloquent orator, ainche
doubtless, do good st rviCe in the coinipg
campaign.
By reason of the refusal, of Governor
Geary to sign the new appprtioumcot
bill it will be necessary for the State to
elect two members atlarge to the next
Congress. The Convention placed in
nomination for these planes, General
Lemuel Todd, of .Cutnheria. - 6, and
General Harry White,. of Indiana.
These nominations commend themselves.
Hero at home Gull. Todd octeds ho eulogy.
He is xegarded by all as a, gentleumn of

COL. JORDAN AND THE STATE
CONVENTION
Some gentlemen 'whose mission seams
to be mischief mainly, have given Cur
rency to the report that ' there was
arrangement made with Col. Jordan, by
which he should withdraw from the . eon.,
test for Governor, n
Governor, and accept the omiL
nation for Supremo Judge. Some color
has been. given to this list the fact
that ho received quite a largo vote fot.
that nomination. More is no truth
.whatever in the story. Col. - Jordan
withdrew from the contest for Governor,
for thesimple reason that ho knew Gen.
Hartranft hatja majority of the.doleg - ates
when the convention met: He Made no
arrangement, ;whatever, with any one.
He did not authorize the use of his
name in connection with a nomination
- for the Supremo Court, nor had le any
knowledge that it would be so used:
The vote ho received was cast by dele
gates who knew Sq.:zeal' and ability of
Col. Jordan, and who desmecl to give
him a nomination whiclAioidd have
justly recognized his worth and Service.
It is almo,t, needless to Say that 'Uol.
Jordan is not the man to enter intb ally
arrangements or bargains,..whatever,
with reference to nominations. " The
fx illow ing from the Harrisburg Telegraphy
places the matter in its truo light ' :
At h convention where so many
thiligs are done in so short a time, it is,
quite common for some things to be
misunderstood, and sometimes injustice
done. The reflection attempted to be
caul upon Mi. Jordan, in one or two
newspapers; because he declined to 'al
low the use of his Nunn for Governor in
the recent convention, is as ridiculous as
it is unjUst. \Vhen it was made to ap
pear by the meeting or- nartranft's
friends in cat Thus, 1 liikt between seventy
And eighty of the delegates could be-re
lied on to nominate him for - Governor,
hue au the first ballot was
assured.
3w don cared martin , ' fur a
mere complimentary vote, and had to
submit. to the inevitable, and did et by
declining to allow the use of Lit name.
Subsequently - sundry friends or Dart
nu& placed Mr. Jordan in nomination
for Supreme Judge, out of an apprecia
tion of Isis strength, character and abili
tive, tail supported him in good faith.
Mr. Jordan had no knowledge or tie.
IE3 0,111 friends did nut even ee-operate
in the moven,mft",-.. , it regarding, him as
a candidal./for the 'nice, which lie

SPEECH 01 , ' fIENEItAI
Gnu L Hartranl't was introduced as the
next Gbvinmemr of Pennsylvania, and
spoke as fffilo • s :
GentleSiten : It would . ffie easier to ad
dress you were - I less moVed Gy the great
honor you have conferrifd upon mo in
nominating ine as your candidate for the
Governor of if,. great; State, to be voted .
for in the cormag October election. For
this pledge of your confidence I feel
deeply grateful, and ,to you, the dele
gates, and through 'you to the rank and
file of the groat Republican party in this
State, Whose representatives' you
tender my heartfelt thanks. (Applause.]
I are fully aware of the gtave respon
sibilities which will'rest upon, hint who
may be elected -by the votes of our peo
ple s th fill the executive chair. I
thoroughly appreciate the difficulties
which meet-- - ‘wbich willffiave to
be met in bring with an 'equal hand for
-the vast and varied interests which must.
claim his attention. While. 'lnman
nature ha's its 'imperfections, it is almost
impossible in that port to have,his -every
act approved by the public; but should
.your good intentions be ratified by the
coming election, let me assure you, I
will make every houeSt effort to perform
my duty to the commonwealth, and to
,give to the people a faithful administra
tion according to the best of thy ability
' . .(4.pplause.)
Gentlemen :—lt would be affectation
to leave unexpresged the pride I feel at
receiving this recognition at your liana,
—at the hands of the great republican
party which has made so honorable a
record in the few years of its existence.
From its inception it has been firmly .
on - the side of '' a union of States,.. ono
and muliVisible," and coming into
power, it has cemented by the blood of
our hrimilst and best the States and ter
ritories protected by our banner into
vile glorious whole. [Applause.] More
lllitit this,' it has made our, great reputf
lie to truth "The Lahti of Freedom,"
by striking tile shackles from four mil
lions of slaves, and •elevating them to
complete citizenship. [ Applause. ] It
has,mared with.a generous hand for the
widows, and orphans of those who died
that the country might live, and has
thrown its protecting firms around did
• galloet meal who were maimed imp the
Union's defense. [Applause.) fly
bring, true to the obligations of the
government it has lifted the 'United
jhates into the front rank of nations
! and made' the name " American" ril
-1 speffied in every land. It is collecting
the revenues of the government faith
fully, and paying orr the national debt
at the rate or nearly one 11111114 M mil
looms per annum. Here in Pennsyl
vania the same judicious economy is
reducing our dem, one and a half mi
lieus each year. It has made, and is
comb' , years the pages of the un
biased'historian, unequalled by' that or
any other party that ikver controlled the
government. [Applidise.]
Such a party is entitled to continue its
rule iu state and national affairs. It is'
now marshaling its foryes, and in a short
time will have to pass through the cus
tomary conflict or the presidentha cam
paign,,,but it will triumph as,certainly
amid as gloriously as did the army of the.
Union under the "Great Flanker" in
its bloody march from the Rapidan to
the Appomattox. (Applause.)
• Gen. Allen was also introduced and
spoke very briefly, saying that it was lin
possible for him to express his profound
indebtedness for the honors thus con
ferred, and the confidence the conven
tion had in him. It was pleasure to re
ceive the endorsement of his fellow-citi
zeus, and would assure ,the convention
that it would be his positive determina
tion to nut it the confidence which it had
bestowed upon himn.

REF , OLUTIONFiv
The committee msresolittions presiM tett
a report which - was adqted ati follows :
Resolved, That we re-allirm our devo
tion to the principles of the Republican
party, ainLour hale(' that the - continoed
existence of said party is 11a:et:sal . y to
the inaintemuite and- success Of those
Principles.! The grand and fundamental
idea of the meif in poll
(tical rightS is not-possessed by any other
party, and can be Sustained faithfully
only .by those who aro. sincerely com
mitted to in
Resolved, That the adoption of the
thirteenth,. fourteenth and fifteenth
rfinentlments to the constitution of the
United litates has not been su ffi ciently
acquiesced in ..by all to render certain and
'secure theit.-permanent incorporation in
that instrument, and hence the adminis
tration of the government can safely be
entrusted only 'to that party which is'
heartily-and beyond question committed
to them and this policy necessary to put
them in successful operation. .
Resolved, That we are .now more than
ever called to sustain the policy of pro
tection to -American industry. if the
laborer is worthy of his hire, and a fair
day's work enfitle< the worker to a fair
day's pay, we must continue to throw
the protecting arm of the government
around those who toil for •their_ daily
bread. The protective policy alone
!mikes labor coincided and s , capitul
secure. It renders mnployment certain
and pay ample and satisfactory, whilst
free trade Aneans that our laborers and
men:ods must either work for lower.
wages, or that our factories should be
closed through foreign e mpetition, and
Clio workingmen of the country de
prived of employment.
Re, -'red. Thai, the public lands be
long t the people and should be reserved
for the pomile. We therefore pronounce'
most i , ecidedly against any further
propriation of the public lands_ in behalf
of cm ; .orat ions or ind ividuatA. All lands
not sold according to law should be open
to pre-etnption and settlement.
Resulted, That we demand a continued
. adherence to the policy 'hitherto • pre
sMvedainder llopuldican auspices in our{
State, and in the nation of a steady and
gradffil. reduction of the public debt.
The interests of the people require that
it — iTaThoiny should — be
practiced in the administration of both
natiOnal and State governments, and that
the taxes•should be reduced in both as
rapidly :Is is consistent with the honor
able maintenance of the public credit_
a the certain extinguishment of the
public debt. -
EMU
,Eesolval, That we are earnestly in
favor of the earliest possible 'removal of
duties on tea and coffee, and the prompt
passage of the bill for that purpose now
before Congress.
Resolved, That wo heartily approve of
the act of General Grant in giving a trial
to the plan of civil service reform. We
demand that that plan,or any other that
may be substituted in its place as bettor.
shall live a fair and unembarrassed trial;
that every effort shall be made 'to secure
competent mon for the public service,
and that honest and incorruptibility shall
be deemed qualifications as essential as com
petence and intelligence.
-Resolved, That tio republican party has
given all evidence during the past eleven
years of its ability to administer the gee
cr ntent honestly, faithfully and success
fully; it has within that time maintained
the honor of our national hag at home and,
abroad, preserved the Union froth disrup
tion and restored it to its integrity, scoured
to all classes and condition or mon the
rights g,iyen,,to them by their ether; and
having pimidaimcd liberty throughout all
the land, and to all the inhabitants thereof,
glee!) to that proclamation the full
ethic to which it was entitled, and we
therefore in its name claim from the people
a continuance of their confidence and fear
lessly challenge their scrutiny into its nets.
Resolved, That wo point with pride to
the tecord of General .Grant's adminis
tration of the national Government ; not
only hasthe weight of internal tax ation
been almost wholly removed from the
-people's shoulders, dint $300,000,000 of
the national debt have been paid off—a
result never before attained by any
other people under like circumstances,
and for which we aim indebted to the
Plight honesty, strict • economy and ster
ling integrity which the President has
brought to the administration of nation
al
alfairs.
Resolved, That we present-his name
fur remo.nination to the presidency, con
fident that the people will again rally to
the support of the man who so nobly
fonght their battles ; who, under the'
guidance of Providence, brought the,
nation sltfely through its struggle. to
maintain its , exiitmita,...mad who has
since so successfully adMinistered the
affairs of the government as to command
general admiration at hone and abroad.
Resolved, That we will-stand by the
government in the foreign Ddliey SC/-
thinly marked out and adhered to by
President Grant. p The, honor of the
nation we feel is oafp ib MI. hands, and
thc.tlag under whiero4o never 'suffered
defeat will not bu dislactiN • while he is
kept in the front.
Rimy/vat, That we congratulate the
peuplo-of PenusSfivania on the final ae
complishment of the call for a conven
tien,.to revise and anfond the constitu
tion'of UM State, and wo earnestly urge
upon our friends to see that the delegates
