The Republican State Convention as
sembled in Harrisburg yesterday, and
was organized by electing Russell Krrett
(Grant), temporary chairman over Geo.
V. Lawrence (Blaine), by a vote of 159 to
92. This vote fairly represented the
strength of the two candidates, and no
others were named. Mr. Errett. on tak
ing the chair, made a short speech, advis
ing harmony, and invoked the greatest of
all virtues, charity of judgment among
the delegates. Without transacting any
other business, the Covention at 1 :20
took a recess of one hour.
At 3 o'clock the Convention again as
sembled. A resolution for the appoint
ment of a committee to report delegates
to the Chicago Convention was offered
by Hon. John Cessna. Mr. Stewart, of
Franklin county, offered a substitute,
providing that the delegates from the
several congressional districts should
name the delegates to be sent to Chicago,
which was lost by a vote of 150 in favor
of the original resolution, to 100 for the
substitute. The resolution adopted in
structed the committee in making their
report to include the names of such dele
gates as had already been named by the
congressional districts.
The following resolution was offered:
Resolved, That the delegates elected to
the Republican National Convention from
this State are hereby instructed to sup
port General U. S. Grant, and to vote as
a unit on all questions that may come be
fore the convention.
The Blaine men proposed the following
substitute:
Resolved, That while we pledge our
selves to support the Republican party,
we see no good reason for abandoning
the position taken by the party in our
own and other States in 1870 of opposi
tion to a third Presidential term; and we
hereby endorse and reaflinn the resolu
tions passed by our State Convention,
held at this city in 187(1, upon this ques
tion.
After a full disscussion the original
resolution, instructing for Grant was
adopted, on a call of the yeas an i nays,
133 to 113.
Hon A. G. Olmstead, of Potter county,
was elected permanent Chairman.
Senator Lemon was nominated for Au
itor General, receiving 15H votes to 93
for J. A. M. Puss mo re.
The following gentlemen were nomina
ted ax delegates at large to the Chicago
convention: Hon. M. S. Quay, Jas. Mr-
Manes, Linn Burtholemew, and Chris L.
Mugce.
Presidential electors at large—E. H.
Benson, and H. W. Oliver.
Hon. Henry Greene was unanimously
nominated for Supreme Judge.
O. 1). Kinney was nominated to the
Chicago Convention fiotn this district.
The Census.
Careful preparations are being made,
says the Binglwunton Republican, to have
the coming census the most comprehen
sive that has yet been taken. Tin- study
of the different methods employed has de
veloped much information in regard to
the work, which is of great utlue to 'he
English Government in the census of the
British Islands, which is to be taken
next year. The London r J)'mes compli
ments'the probable acrucucy of the sys
tem already adopted in this country.
Some remarkable changes will be note.)
in comparison with the first census of th.
I'nited States, witicit was taken in 1799,
and which showed a population of less
than 4,000, 000 inhabitants. Virginia the i
ranked tlrst, with a population ol' about
754,000. New oris was fifth in rank.
The second census was taken in 1800.
At that date New York occupied the third
place, showing an increase of about 250,-
000. At the third census in 1810, New-
York ranked second, but in 1820 gained the
first place, while Virginia, which had
heretofore ranked first, fell hack to the
tenth, in number of inhabitants. The
general census in 1870 showed a total
population of 38,560,000.
In time the work of enumeration will be
a gigantic undertaking, and. allow ing the
ratio of increase during the past ten years
to have been 35 per cent, at the present
time the census should show a total pop
ulation of 52.000,000 inhabitants, while in
1900, if the present ratio of increase con
tinues, the country will contain over
ninety millions of people.
