Aa the date lor jthe con vention drawi near the conteat for the gubernatorial nomination become more Interesting. A battle royal I under way and the election ot dele gates In several counties hare been at tended by spirited rivalry. Attorney John P. Elkln and Colonel L. A. Watrea have been the sole active candidate in the way ot competing for delegate, but the wood are full of dark horse, hoping that something will turn up to let them have a chance for the big price. NO STATEMENT FROM QUAY. The efforts ot the Philadelphia party leader in behalf of Judge Pennypack er for the governorship followed with inrreaaed activity after Senator Quay' visit to that city last week. The sena tor did not authorize any public state ment that he waa Irrevocably commit ted to Judge Pennypacker, in fact, he did not give any public interview go ing on record a favoring any candi date. Friend of Judge Pennypacker have, however, been quite hopeful of get ting hi active co-operation in the can vas for the nomination. Some have stated that Senator Quay, while not advocating the nomination of Judge Pennypacker ha at leaat not discour aged his Philadelphia supporter In their plan to try to carry off the nom ination. Other believe that Senator Quay will be guided by developments and be largely Influenced by the show ing the Pennypacker men make be fore the convention meet. fcLKIN MEN AVTIVK. From Indiana county, the home ot Attorney General KVn eom reports that they wuld be plea&' to their oDPopteats unite upon Judge Penny packe.r as they would then have a fee exens to e.ftpeai to the Repub lican ot the Interior el the, state to stand together against allowing Phila delphia to have both the governorship and the United Bute aenatorshlp. Tha Elkln men say they are strongest U tha Interior counties and that they would., prefer to have the opposition take np a Philadelphia!!. Colonel Watrea' admirers continue their aggressive work and will not ad it that Senator Quay la committed to Judge Pennypacker. They hope to get his support In Allegheny county for mer Governor Walter Lyon has been working np sentiment In favor of Frank J.

GOOOD FEELING MANIFESTED. It la remarkable how th party work ers throughout the tat have held within proper line and not permitted tha contest over the governorship to engender feelings of bitterness such as would be likely to affect the polling of the full party - vote : after the ticket hall be placed In the field. While It i believed that the coming state convention will be the best at tended gartering of Republicans ever held in Pennsylvania yet there Is every reason to believe that tt will be one of the most harmonious and at the same time most satisfactory conven tions held In this state in many years. That the nominee of the convention, whoever he shall be, will be loyally and ardently supported in the contest at the general election there can be no doubt The party organization was never in a better condition, and the Republican voters of Pennsylvania will stand by their party candidates when they shall be named by th con k-entloa.
