THE REPUBLICAN.
W. U. CHENEY, - - - Editor.
FRIDAY. AUGUST 9, 1893
fall lor Ntate Convention.
TO TDK ItKPCBMOAM ELECTORS OF PBNH
svLVANta:
I am direoted by the Republican
State Committee to nnnounce that
the Republicans of Pennsylvania, by
their duly chosen representatives,
will meet in State Convention at
Harrisburg, Pa., on Wednesday,
August 28, at 11 o'clock a. m., for
the following purposes, to wit:
For the nomination of one Candi
date for State Treasurer, six candi
dates for Judges of the Superior
Court, and for the transaction of
such other business as may be pre
sented.
I hereby call attention to the fol
lowing rules declared to be perman
ent rules of the Republican Parly in
the State of Pennsylvania at the
State Convention held May 23, 1891,
as follows:
"That the delegates to the State
Convention shall be chosen in the
manner in which Candidates for the
General Assembly are nominated."
"That representation in State
Conventions shall be based upon the
vote cast at the Presidential or Gub
ernatioral election immediately pro
ceeding, one Delegate being allotted
to each Legislative District for every
two thousand Republican votes, and
An additional Delegate for a fraction
exceeding one thousand votes, each
district to have at least one Delegate."
By order of the Republican State
Committee.
B. F. GILKESOX, Chairman.

A. D. FETTEROLF, Secaretaries.
Is it Ingratitude to Mr. Quay.
Judging from the amount of mat
ter printed on the subject one would
suppose that Mr. Quay was the crea
tor of all the prominent men in the
Republican part}' in Pennsylvania.
His friends talk of everybody who
is inclined to favor the Governor
and Mr. Gilkeson in the factional
fight, as ungrateful to the man who
made them all that they are.
We may be a little bickward in
political matters, or may not be
sufficiently informed about the work
ings of political machinery, which
may account for our belief that in
stead of Mr, Quay making so many
smart aud prominent men they really
made him.
11 is fair to assume, and history
will bear out the assertion, that men
are not made by roan. Tney are
born, and instead of Mr. Quay mak
ing them he merely discovered cer»
tain ones who possessed the ability
to assist him in his leadership and
whatever compensation a compara
tive few received through his
position in the way of patronage,
was well earned by services in his
behalf rendered. Because they have
for many years performed services,
of which he was the chief beneficiary
is 110 reason why they should be ex
pected to continue to do so when
other conditions and circumstances
present themselves, as we find them
in the present issue. Mr. Quay as
an acknowledged leader, could easilj'
command the services and assistance
of the party workers when the best
interests of the part} were at stake
but when only personal supremacy,
without any redeeming features is
involved it is altogether another
matter and the old man will discover
that he reconed without his host.
Mr. Quay was elected to represent
Pennsylvania in the United States
Senate and if he faithfully perforins
his duties there it is all that his con
stitutents expect of him. hut when
lie neglects his high office in the
Congress of the nation to come
back and undertake to direct legis
lation in the State it is more than
the people will stand.
Judge Woodward of Wilkesbarre,
has received his commission to serve
on the judgeship contest cominisHion.
A six-ycor old girl in YVilliamsport
who was accustomed to walk in her
sleep, crawled out of a third storv
window the other night'and fell 30
feet to the ground. With the ex -
ception of a few slight brusis the
little one was uninjured.
President Cleveland enme into
office in March, 1893, with a cash
balance in the Treasury of $124,128,-
088, and the interest bearing debt
was >585,000,000. By borrowing
$117,000,000 by the two issues of 5
per cent, bonds and 902,500,000 on
4 per cent., the government has rais
ed its interest bearing debt to about
$"4T,000,000, and by refusing to pay
debts overdue has raised its cash
balance to $193,826,592. But all
these operations do not serve to hide
the fact that the change in the reve*
nue system, to which the party in
power sacrifices everything else, has
left the government without revenue
enough to meet its necessary expen
ses. It is so often said that the
Republican administration left the
government in difficulty, notwith
standing the actual cash* balance on
hand, as above slated, that it nay be
well to recur to the fact that the
actual revenue fell only $5,000,000
below the expenditure* for the eight
months of the fiscal year preceding
the inauguration of President Cleve
land. Under Ihe old laws there had
been for fears no difficulty, and
would bare been none had those laws
remained in force without the threat
pf a ehange of policy.
Judge and Mr#. SitUer of Tunk
bannock have returned from their
western trip aa far as Owaaca l.ake,
near Auburn, N. Y., where they are
rusticating at the Judge'* old borne.
Frank Middeudorf of Cherry,
while attempting to board a moving
L. V. freight train at Satterfleld on
Thursday last, was thrown to the
ground, his head striking the step of
the car, fracturing Ills skull quite
seriously; his foot was also run over
by the train and it is rumored that
the injured member will have to be
amputated. Other than this, his
friends have hopes of his recovery.
lutcreatlng to Tax Collectors.
Among the laws passed at the re
cent session is an act for divesting
the line of taxes assessed auain-«t
real estate sold at sheriffs and other
judicial sales. The preamble to this
act sets forth that many persons
have bought real estate at judicial
sales, and afterwards been required
to pay taxes levied on the property
before such sales took place,
ing great hardships on purchasers,
and uncertainty has arisen whether
sheriffs or other officers mating the
sales should pay the taxes out of the
proceeds in their hands. The new
law provides that the lien of all
taxes now levied, against anj' real
estate shall be divested by a judicial
sale, if the amount realized shall bo
sufficient to pay such taxes. All
officers having takes to collect
against any land advertised to be
sold, and all commissioners, before
taxes have been certified for collec
tion, must notify the sheriff of the
amount of taxes against such proper
ty, and the sheriff must pay these
tuxes out of the proceeds of sa'e,
provided, as above mentioned, there
is enough money in his hands for
the purpose.
