How General Baily became a Candidate.
It has been currently reported and
quite generally believed thot Gen. Baily,
Republican candidate tor State Treasurer
was made a candidate at the instigation
of Senator Cameron, but the following
latter from one of the McKean couuty del
egates, not a machine man, tells the sto
ry of how the General was brought into
the field:
To the Editor of the Press:
My name having been already mention
ed iu the public prints in connection with
the candidature of Gen. Baily, I am .in
duced by the statements of Mr. Wolfe in
his Philadelphia speech to give a little
more definite form to what I had before
regarded as of slight consequence. In
what manner Geu. Baily became a candi
date, so long as he was the choice of the
Convention, secerns to me of little mo
ment. But Mr, Wolfe has manufactured
the circumstances and made them an im
portant plauk in his platform, lie says
that Colonel Stewart became a candidate
by announcement printed in the Republi
can Standard ol Uniontown on the 4th
day of August. His theory is that Gen.
Baily was afterwards brought into the
field by Senator Cameron to defeat the
nomination of Stewart. Permit me to
say through your widely circulated col
umns that having been unanimously elec
ted as a delegate from McKean, I com
municated with my old friend, Gen. Bai
ly, on the 2d day of August, suggesting
the State Treasurer nomination and re
questing him to meet me the following
afternoon at Greensburg, my former
home. lie replied by telegram, "Impos
sible." Not satisfied with this, I again
telegraphed the General on the 4th of
August from Greensburg as follows:
"Meet me Seventh-avenue Hotel, Pitts
burg this evening. Answer." To this
message the General respohded favorably
and we met accordingly at Pittsburg that
evening. After a loug interview the
General with much reluctance, promised
me to return home, confer with his
friends there and telegraph me the result .
I came to Bradtord and in a day or two
received the General's message announc
ing that he had decided to accede to my
wishes and enjoining me "not to let him
drop." I at once telegraphed Senator
Cameron, Col. Quay and other friends in
various parts of the State that General
Baily of Fayette was a candidate for the
nomination and that his friends would
urge him to the best of their ability. The
name of Geu. Baily was favorably men
tioned by the Eoening Star , a Republican
daily of this city, on the 11th dav of Au
gust. So far as Senator Cameron and
Col. Quay are concerned, they neither
suggested the General's name to inc nor
communicated with me in his behalf, ei
ther directly or indirectly. I make this
statement not to arrogate any conse
quence to myself, but rather to refute a
theory as silly and malicious as its author
is insiiisere. Very respectfully,
J. A. EGK
Bradford, Pa., October 14, 7SSI.
Ilazleton Bulletin : Mr. Wolfe, we have
110 doubt expects to have a sollid follow
ing among the speculative insurance com
panies. Nor will he reckon without his
host, either. Mr. Wolfe lias served them
a good turn already by seeing lit to ab
seut himself from his post of duty in the
late Legislature and at the critical mo
ment too, when his vote would iorevcr
have put a period to death-rattle insur
ance. If the insurance managers, know
ing it will be grist to their mill, will sup
port him, let those who condemn such
speculating in human life do all in their
power to defeat it when he could, and
will hereafter also do all in his power to
promote their best interests. Here is
food lor reflection for the conscientious
voter, irrespective of party or faction,
who condemn the system of mortgaging
human bones.
There never was a more harmonious
or fairer convention than the one which
nominated the Republican county ticket
this year. With the exception of the
Treasuryship, the several aspirants made
their own canvass unaided by "ring
sters" or "bosses," and the successful
candidates are fairly en titled to every
Republican vote. .
It is well known that the nominee for
Treasurer was not the choice of any
clique, and yet those who are denominat
ed the "ring" are giving him a hearty
support.
Cutting or scratching this year will af
ford very poor consolation to those who
have opposed bossism.
There is in the New York sub-treasury
$1,800!000 in unclaimed money orders,
the accumulation of seventeen years for
r the entire United States. The sub-treas
ury being a national money order clear
ing-house, most of the failures to collect
are clue to misdirection, etc. Postmas
ter General James desires these facts to
be known, believing if it were that much
of the amount would be claimed.
But for the influence and efforts of
Hon. J. 11. Webb, Ilerdic's scheme to di
vide the county would have been success
ful. lie could have had thousands of
dollars to permit the bill to pass, but he
spurned the offer although he is a poor
man.
Mr. Webb has served the county faith
fully and efficiently in many trying times.
It should be a pleasure as it it a duty of
the people to reciprocate his unselfish
labors by gi\ ing him a large vote.
The would be State Treasurer, who is
attempting to cause a split in the Repub
lican ranks of Pennsylvania, will say his
little speech in Pittsburg on Saturday
night.
This is an off year in politics. Repub
licans should remember their opponents
take advantage of such times to steal in
to power in this county.
Four hundred and fifty thousand dol
tars in cash and a large amount of sup
plies have been contributed for the Mich
igan sufferers.

outstanding $7,090,000 fractional curren

Probably very little of it will ever be pre
