fs nmv tin opfn problem and the de-
velopments in the different parU of the
state Trill be watched with Interest.
Senator Quny has said that if he
eoiiM n:iine tht next governor he would
ehooj Mr. Elkin, but for the rea
sons which he gave in his statement
foIIoT.lnR the declaration from Mr. El
lin, he says he thought best to advise
him not to be a candidate.
The personal relations between
Meters. Quay i.nj Klklu still remain
friendly aud there are many who are
familiar with what is going on vho
bellcre that a satisfactory settlement
of the matter may be reached before
long.
AN INTERESTING FIELD.
It is too er.rly to venture a prediction
as to what will ultimately be done, but
all indications point the choice of the
convention receiving the loyal sup
port cf Republicans generally no mat
ter who shall be chosen.
Ucsldi's Mr. Elkin, there have been
proposed for the governorship among
others, former United States Senator
J. Donald Cameron, United States At
torney General Knox and General John
R. Brooke. Colonel L. A. Watres, who
has been In the field for some months,
U continuing bis campaign for dele
gate and declares that ho will remain
In the contest to the end.
Many of Mr. Elkin's admirers
throughout the state have announced
tholr intention to continue their ef
forts to elect delegates in his bohalf,
and are now at work.
Philadelphia has S6 delegates, but
they will not be elected until the lat
ter part of May, by which time th
altuntlon may have adjusted Itself.
Three counties elected delegates to
the Republican state convention on Sat
urday, McKean, Lehigh and Lawrence.
None of these couutles had a popu
lar rote for the instruction of the dele
gates to the state convention on the
governorship.
There was no contest on this score,
the successful candidates for dele
gates having been agreed upon some
time In advance of the primaries.
The contest over the governorship
will add Co the attractions at the stats
convention, sod it Is predicted that
the largest crowd that e'ver assembled
at Harrlsburg will be present to see
the ticket named.
Clubs are already being formed In
the interest of. different candidates,
and the hotel managers are fearful
that they will not be able to accommo
date more than half of those who will
be In attendance.
It is rot improbable that If the con
test over the governorship shall con

larger field of aspirants for. the other

The persistence with which certain
members of the senate have fought this
bill has aroused feelings of Indignation
among the worklngmen of the country.
They cannot see why representatives
of the American people should show so
much Interest In the Chinese, whose
hordes of cheap laborers, with the de
feat of this bill, would soon Invade

A lv CHOWS XX?CCTIt&
Chairman Reader, of the Republican
state committee, was here this week
and devoted much time to prelim
inaries for the convention. He says
he has had many applications from the
various counties for promises of cards
of admission to the convention hall,
but to all these he has made reply
that he will do nothing in the matter
of tickets for the hall until the dele
gates shall arrive at Harrlsburg. He
believes that the delegates should be
given first consideration, and that
where they are accompanied by dele
gations of friends, they should be
given every opportunity to provide
seats for their neighbors who travel
to the convention city to participate
In the naming of the party nominees.
The canvass for the office of secre
tary of Internal affairs Is becoming
quite warm. Major Brown, of Erie
county, who has been making an ag
gressive fight for this nomination, last
week invaded the home county of Gen
eral Schall, of Montgomery, who has
also been prominently mentioned for
the successor to General Latta.
Major Drown attended the annual
banquet of the Republican Invlncibles
at Norrlstown, and made a stirring
speech. After he was through General
Schall was called upon, and he, too,
spoke wth much fervor. Each got an
ovation, but of course General Schall
wiil get the delegates from Montgom
ery, where he Is well known and pop
ular. No special developments have oc
curred in the canvass for the lieuten
ant governorship. Those mentioned
for this honor are former Senator
Brown, of Lawrence county, who has
the delegates from that county; Dr.
Flood, of Crawford county, who has
his home Indorsement; Dr. Reed, of
Cumberland, whose home delegates
are uninstructed, and others.
(Special Correspondence.)
Philadelphia, April 15. Senator Pen
rose was unable to come to this city
this week, as he found it undesirable
to leave Washington with the Chinese
exclusion bill coming up for final pas
sage in the senate.
He has found the opposition to this
bill to be greater than he anticipated,
and It haa required the moat careful
and watchful attention to meet suc
cessfully every move of Its opponents.
Senator Penrose was obliged to fight
Senator .Quay's proposed amendment,
which would permit of the admission
of "Christian Chinese" and those vho
aided In the defense of the American
and other consulates In the recent out
break In China. Hedeclared that to
change the bill In any particular would
be a mistake. He further held that
the adoption of such an amendment
would lead to deception jwd the ad mis-
asset W a saaber cf
btn cf the senate npo fhc masterly
manner In which he,a chairman cf the
committee on immigration, has handled
the tight for this bill. He has no
doubt about his ability to muster
enough votes to pass the measure and
he Is satisfied that President Roose
velt will promptly append his signature
to the bill when It shall be presented
to him.
THE DEMOCRATIC ROW.
The activity of the followers of for
mer Judge James Gay Gordon In their
efforts to bring about his nomination
for governor of Pennsylvania by the
Democratic convention, is resented by
admirers of former Governor Patilaon.
Gordon is missing no tricks to further
bis candidacy and he thinks he scored
a big gala when he landed two of the
members of the Democratic state com
mutes a few days ago in place of two

L DUNKELBERGER-
cratlc stale convention' here. Gordon
has a large majority ot the delegation
from the Quaker City. It is hinted
that Gordon Is eager to get control of
tue Democratic Mate committee and
that there may be some sensational de
velopaunta when the committee meets.
Guffey has been advised of a probable
attempt to unhorse him and he will be
there with all his retainers to hold on
to the party organization.
LOOKING OVER THE FIELD.
P. Grey Meek, of Bellefonte, was hers
this week and It Is understood that he
came to inquire as to the strength of
the several aspirants for governor in
order to advise with his friend Con
gressman J. K. P. Hall, of Elk, who la
thinking of entering the race. Hall
was anxious to know how Pattlson
stands with the Philadelphia Democ
racy. He will probably learn from
Meek that Pattlson haa lost cast with
many ot the Philadelphia Democrats,
and that he Is not looked upon as an
available candidate for the governor
ship by the Quaker City Democrats, as
would be a strong man from ons of the
Interior counties. I
Congressman Hall will not say
whether he will be a candidate or not
for governor, but his friends are quiet
ly bagging delegates to the stats con
vention so that they can have them If
they desire when the time comes to'
name the ticket (
The fact that the stats Democracy
was never so torn up with factional
and personal quarrels seems to dis
courage many of the formerly promt-;
nent Democrats from taking a hand In
the party affairs. i
. They feel that the party should be
recognised and that Guffey should bs
aaked to relinquish the leadership. , j
Guffey Is looking to the next Demo
cratic national convention, and ti
wants to be at the head of the deleg
tlon and control the vote ot Pennsyl
vanla for the selection of the Demo
cratic nominee for the presidency.
Guffey is not happy unless he hu
everything his own way In the matter
of Democratic state politics In the Her
stone state, which has resulted In th
feeling of disgust which so many Deifr
ocrats have recently given expression
to and which accounts for the largt
falling off In the Democratic vote
recent elections throughout the state.
