A MAN OF THE PEOPLE.
Senator Edmund B, Hnrdenbergh,
who is the Republican standard bearer
for auditor .general, was born i't Wii
sonvllle, Wayne county, in this slate,
on July 31, 1846. He was educated
at the public gchoola and at Eastman's
Business college, In Poughkoepsle, N.
Y. After leaving school he went Into
railroading, and for some time past
tias been In the employ of the Brie
Railway company as traveling Instruc
tor. For the past 15 years Mr. Harden
bergh has been active and prominent
in the politics of his section of the
stnte at large. He served as a mem
ber of the lower house of the leglsla
tare during .he sessions of 1S85 and
1887. and In w oluctcd u Uic
state senate, being re-elected to that
body In 1898v nfter a bitter factional
fight. He has served as a delegate In
a number of Republican state conven
tions and in the Republican national
convention In 1896, and was chairman
of the Wayne county Republican com
mittee for the years 1891 and 1S92. He
is well known among organized work
Ingmen of the commonwealth and has
figured as a champion of labor at Har
risburg. A NATIONAL CHARACTER.
The venerable Oalusha A. Grow, who
was renominated for congressman-at
large by the Republican state conven
tion. Is a national character. He was
bnm In Ashford (now Eastford), Wind
ham county. Conn., on Aug. SI, 1N.3.
His father died when lie was I! years
old, and his mother, with her six chil
dren, removed to Susquehanna county,
Pa,, in May. 1834, There young Grow
worked on a farm until be began prep
aration at the Franklin academy for
Amherst college, from which institu
tion he graduated in 1S44. Three years
later he was admitted to the bar, and
In ISfjO began his public career by be
ing elected the successor of David Wil
mot In the house of representatives.
He was elected from the same dis
trict for Hix consecutive terms, the first
three times as a Free Soil Democrat,
the last three times as a Republican,
but in 1SK2 lost his seat through a re
disricting of the state. In July, ISC1,
he was elected speaker of the bouse.
He returned to congress in 1894, when
lie was elected to fill the vacancy caus
ed by the death of Gen. William Lilly,
cotigressman-at-largc, and was re
elected on the ticket at large In 1S9B.
PHILADELPHIA WAS RECOGNIZED
Philadelphia's commercial Interests
and sterling Republicanism was recog
nized by the Republican state conven
tion In the nomination of Robert H.
Foerderer. of Philadelphia, for the
other place on the ticket for conirress-man-at-large.
Robert H. Foerderer
was born In Frnnkenhousen. Germany,
on May 10, 18G0. His parents, when
he was an Infant, came to America and
located in Philadelphia. They sent the
lad to the public schools and afterwards
to a private academy. At tho age of
16 years he began his business career
as an apprentice in his father's morocco
factory, entering the plant as a humble
beginner, and took his chances of pro
motion with the other workingmen.
After mastering all the details of the
trade he eventually went Into the
business on his own account. He is
now the owner of one of the largest
manufactories of glazed kid in the
world.
Mr. Foerderer is a director in several
financial institutions, and ho is also
Identified with some of the leading
elubs. He has never held any public
office. His thorough familiarity with
the needs of Philadelphia naturally
directed attention to him as an avail
able man to represent the state in the
aational legislature. Ho has always
been a stalwart Republican and a lib
eral contributor to the party organiz
ation. His candidacy whoa first pro
posed received cordial support from
many members of the Union League,
the Manufacturers' club and the com
mercial aad maritime exchanges and s
strong sentiment in hut behalf
oulckly awakened.
CORNELIUS N. BLISS,
any other man in either party who Is
now giving attention to political mat-
' ters. He is actively Identlfli d with one
of the greater banks of New York, al
though his chief business brings him
Into close touch with Important manu-
; facturing interests, whoso business Is
by no means a domestic ono exclusive
ly. Mr. Rllss makes note of tho fact that
although this Is a presidential year, yet
so far the Influence of politics upon
business has been Inappreciable, ex
cepting possibly in one or two rather
unimportant directions. For it Is of
no particular consequence to legitimate
business Interests that tho record of
the sale of stocks In Wall street Is just
now very small.
He notes that our exports of all
kinds, and especially of manufactured
goods, continue to show both actual
and proportionate Increases over the
j records of other years, He notices that
on the whole the volume of business
done in the United States, as Indicated
by Clearing House reports. Is excel
lent, and furthermore observes with
much satisfaction that the conditions
in the flnnnelal markets, not only in
New York hut elsewhere in the United
States, show the tranquility that does
not come from apathy, but from pros
perity, that is based In great measure
1 upon confidence.
AS TO FALSE PRETENSE.

Up Democratic Orators.
lie Refers to Tlllimin'a Rxalbltloa of

Tentloa.
Senator Dolliver. of Iowa, in a recent
6peech, criticized the Democratic party
for what he termed its attonipt to
"cover up the only s. -to snd settled
conviction which it has by pushing to
the front a lot of cheap orators on the
subject of civil liberty, and. continuing,
said:
"Tho world Is so arranged that every
masquerade of false pretenses, trying
to do business on a high moral scale,
sooner or later comes to a point along

SENATOR DOLLIVER.
Its line of march where ft can distinct
ly hear the iRughter of gods and men.
Such a polwt. 1 think, was reached at
Kansas City when Senator Tillman was
selected, on account of his voice, to read
the 1") laratlon of Independence, with
Its Kujllmo precepts about the equality
of men and the ultimate basis of hu
man government. Until Mr. Bryan
shall stand up somewhere before the
American people and In an audible
voice utter one word of manly disap

communities e f the United States has

outcast before Mm law, I for one Intend
to treat bis d eclaratlon on the subject
of equal right as unfit tor the respect
of the Am eric an people."
Senator Dol liver then eulogized Pres
ident McKInk y, and in conclusion said;
"Whatever danger lies In our path,
however rojgbAb road which we must
travel, let us 1 ti our faith strong In
our country audita our countrymen.
Let us be sure t hat there Is a guidance
In the affairs o ' men higher than our
