Congratulates Penrose On Activity
of Pennsylvania Republicans.
AIDING NATIONAL COMMITTEE
State Committee ls Co-Opersting With
the Members of the National Com:
mittee In the Campaign For Rocce
volt end Fairbanks.
{&pecial Correspondence.)
Philadelphia, Sept 6.
A fitting complignent was paid to the
Republicar organfratiod of Pennsylva-
pia last week byfChairman Cortelyou,
of the Republica national committee.
It was upon the- occasion of Senator
Penrose’s visit to the national commit-
tee headquarters in New York, when
the subject of state organizations was
under consideration.
“Pennsylvania Republicans have the
finest, most compact and most loyal
Republican organization im the coua-
try,” said Chairman Cortelyou, “and I
fervently wish that other states would
copy the methods and manifest the en-
thusiasm and the ardor which is being
shown by the Republicans of the Key-
stone state in the present campaign.”
Senator Penrose visited the national
chairman upon a special invitation
from Mr. Cortelyou, who desired to
talk over a numfer of matters of im-
portance in connection with the presi-
dential campaign. Their interview was
a most cordial and satisfactory one,
and Chairman Cortelyou was assured
that he could always count upon Penn-
sylvania for men and money, a8 occa-
gion demanded.
As chairman of the Republican state
committee, Senator Penrose has organ-
ized a corps of spellbinders, whose ser-
vices have been placed at the call of
Chairman Cortelyou for duty in the
doubtful states, and he has already
gone considerable effective work I~ ald.
ing the members of the advisory com-
mittees named by the national chair-
man to collect eampaign subscriptions
for the presidentiffi colitest. Pennsyl-
vania is second only to New York in
the amount of money contributed to
Republican campaigns, and with the
co-operation of State Chairman Pen-
rose the representatives of the national
committee who are soliciting contribu-
tions in this state will, it is believed,
be able to make gratifying reports.
Information received at the state
headquarters daily indicates a general
disposition among Republicans to help
make good Senatgr Penrose's predic-
tion that Pennsylvania will even sur-
pass the record-breaking majority of
301,000 for McKinley by giving Roose-
velt at least 325,000 majority. It was
this statement to Chairman Cortelyou
that brought forth his very complimen-
tary reference to the Republican organ-
{zation of Pennsylvania.
No one not thoroughly familiar with
conditions in this state can appreciate
the ramifications and the sturdy char-
acter of the Republican organization
of Pennsylvania. As it stands today it

‘The fact that China has not bees #

‘to her great exhibit here a prominence
quite exceptional. It is a wonderland
of ingenious productions. We know
China best by reason of her extensive
exports of teas, which have found a
vast market in the United States for
generations. Her commercial interests
therefore prompted her to make a dis-
play of teas that we should not for-
get.
In sealed glass jars China displays in
the Liberal Arts Palace some 1,200
kinds of tea. Young Hyson and Old
Hyson have a string of tea relations

Plymouth Rock. They are. neatly se:
lected ‘“‘chops,” in the language of the
tea farmer, and these classes do not
embrace medicinal teas, which are
quite another lot in the rather modest
number of 400.
The teas exhibited vary in price from
a few cents a pound to some rare and
exclusive kinds that are worth their
weight in gold, the tea in the latter
cases being placed on one side of the
scales and pure gold on the other—
that is to say, the tea of this expensive
kind is worth about $20 gold an ounce.

This organization was not built in a

and activity: men who have labored
hard to cement the various interests in
the several counties and who have

Republicanism of ¢very section of the
commonwealth.
The organization of Pennsylvania
today represents hundreds of thousands. |
of Republican yoters who are in touch
with the precinct committeex and
through them the county organizations
and the state committee. These voters
are all enrolled, and their namee and
addresses are kept permanently at the
headquarters of the state committee in
this city. The lists are carefully ar.
ranged, and Are always available for
communications to be sent cirectly by
the chairman of the state committee on
a minute's notice.
In most of the states of the Union
party organizations are formed for each
campaign, and most of the preliminary
work before each election consists of
gathering together an organization for
election day. The Pennsylvania idea
is to keep a permanent organization
The secretary of t state committee.
Colonel Wesley R. Andrews, who has
heen engaged on this work for many
years, is almost as busy between cam-
paigns perfecting his lists as he is in
the midst of a desperately fought po-
litical contest. Senator Penrose, who
succeeds the late Senator Matthew
Stanley Quay as leader of the Republi-
can organization of Pennsylvania, was
a trusted leutenant of the great leader
who recently passed away, and he has
endeavored to follow his example in
keeping the party organization cen-
etantly on a “fighting basis.” Senator
Penrose has gone further. He has
sought to harmonize the party Wher-
ever differences have existed, and he
has made it a rule tofonsult the active
Republicans of eek district before
acting upon any proposition affecting
that district. He believes that the men
who labor year in and year out in the
{nterest of the party are the men to be
consulted.
As chairman of the state committee,
he believes that every young Repub-
lican ambitious to be a factor in his
party's organization should follow this
course, and he has advised many young
men since the opening of the present
contest to at once get in touch with
the committeemen from their respec-
tive precincts and volunteer for duty
throughout the campaign. He holds
that this is the only way for a young
Republican to become 8 power in his
party organization.

Each owner likewise markets his owr

term “chop” signifies an individual

In an area of tea land of, say. a thou

like the one cited above the price has
ranged from 14 cents, the lowest, to
48% cents, the highest, per pound

cers. A matter of great moment that
also figures in the price of tea is
that very often tea from the same dis-

WILL BLAZE THE WAY
Republican Clubmen Loading Fight
For Roosevelt and Fairbanks.
A NEW SONG FOR THE CAMPAIGN
Chairman Penrose Proccures Speak
ere of National
the State League's Convention at
Reading.
Prominence For
[Special Correspondence.]
Reading; Sept. 6.
Pennsyl-Pennsyl-Pennsyl-vania!
Pennsyl-Pennsyl-Pennsyl-vania!
Pennsyl-Pennsyl-Pennsyl-vania!
She's going to blaze the way!
For Teddy and Fairbanks. too!
(To air of “Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!")
The above campaign song will be
pung in every section of the common-
wealth after the convention of the
State League of Republican Clubs,
which is to be held in Reading on Sep-
tember 21, 22 and 23.
Already enthusiastic Republican
clubmen who are preparing to attend
the convention are singing this song
at home, and they expect to join in a
mighty chorus when they get together
in the convention from every county in
the state and formally open the presi-
dential election in Pennsylvania. The
convention of the clubmen this year
promises to-be the greatest in the his-
tory of the league, and much of the
credit for the success of the conven-
tion will be due to the active co-oper-
ation of Chairman Penrose and Secre-
tary Andrews, of the Republican state
committee, who have given every as!
sistance possible to President John R.
Wiggins and Secretary John Kelley
and the other officers of the league and
the members of the local committee
of arrangements.
Senator Penrose made a personal
appeal to Chairman Cortelyou, of the
Republican national committee, and
Chairman Babcock, of the Republican
gongressional committee, |
speikers of national reputation to the
league's convention, and they have
promised to comply with his request.
As the result of Senator Penrose’s
visit to New York, Candidate for Vice
President Charles W. Fairbanks, of
Indiana, and Senator Joseph B. For-
aker, of Ohio, are among others who
have been assigned to address a mass
meeting under the auspices of the
State League, which will be held in
the Reading Academy of Music on
September 21. It is expected that
there will be a number of other dis-
tinguished Republicans from other
states to address the meeting in addi-
tion to many of the leaders of the Re-
publican organization of Pennsylvania.
~
| Senator Penrose, Senator-elect Knox,
Govermor Pennypacker, Attorney Gen-
eral Carson and a host of others have
been imvited to be present. Every Re-
publican member of congress from
Pennsylvania is expected to attend, so
that the gathering will be a notable
one.
There will be music and fireworks
galore and special excursions to Mount
Penn and other points of attraction in
and about Reading will be arranged
for the entertainment of the delegates,
alternates and other visitors to the
convention. Secretary Kelley estimates
that at least 250 clubs will be repre-
sented, and that the number of visitors
who will accompany the delegates will
on record.
The convention of the club league
will be the inauguration of a brilliant
geries of Republican mass meetings to
Pe held under the auspices of the Re-
publican * state committee. Senator-
elect Philander -C. Knox, who has just
returned from a trip abroad, had a
conference with Chairman Penrose last
week and agreed to speak at a mass
meeting to be held in the Academy of
Music in Philadelphia, under the direc-
tion of the Manufacturers’ Club of that
city. This will be one of the largest
demonstrations that will be held in the
state during the campaign. It is pro-
to have a tremendous rally of
employes of the various manufacturing
plants in the Quaker City that have
prospered under the protective tariff |
and which would be jeopardized in the
event of tire election of a Democratic
president and of a Democratic con-
gress favorable to the Democratic idea
of free trade.
Capital and labor will figure con-
epicuously in this meeting, which is
Hikely to be one of the most unigue
features of the presidential contest.
A large delegation of active Repub-
Hcane from Allegheny county were in
conference with Chairman Penrose
last week relative to a series of mon-
ster mass meetings which they pro-
pose to hold in Pittsburg and vicinity.
They submitted a list of orators they
desired, which among others included
Candidate Fairbanks, Speaker “Joe”
Cannon. Senators Penrose and Knox,
Governor Pennypacker, Attorney Gen-
eral Hampton L. Carson, Charles Em-
ory Bmith and General Thomas J.
Stewart.
County Chairman Ford and City
Chairman Leslie informed Chairman
Penrose that Allegheny county will
give Roosevelt and Fairbanks the larg-
eat majority that has ever been given
to any Republican national ticket.
They informed him that the party is
united in Allegheny, and that the
greatest enthusiasm prevails among
the rank and file of the party organi-
zation.
Several of the active spirits of the
State League of Clubs were in Reading
during the last week. They reported
that the condition of the party organi-
gation in their respective localities is
very satisfactory, and that Republi-
cans generally intend to give loyal and
cordial support to the entire Republi
san ticket.

BRYANISM AND DEMOCRACY.
Political parties do not drop political
principles by failing to mention them.
In 1892 the Democratic party declared
that Republican protection was un-
econstitutionn]l and a robbery of the
many for the few. The Chicago con-
vention of 1896 did not discuss the
tariff nor repeat the declaration of
four years hefore, but no one doubted
that the Democratic position was still
opposed to Republican protection. It
was plainly understood and needed no
explanation.
The same is true of the Democratic
party's position on the money question.
In 1896 thut party declared free silver
the paramount issue, and in 1800 it re-
affirmed the Chicago platform,
In reply to Judge Parker’s telegram
stating his position on the money ques-
tion, the St. Louis convention said that
the money question was not mentioned
in the platform because it was not con-
cidered an issue in this campaign. The
party did not recant. It did not re-
pudiate its paramount issue of 1896
and 1900. It simply passed it over as
it paseed over the tariff in 1896. No
one has denied that the Democratic
party still stands for free silver now as
it has for eight. years past. The Com-
mittee on Resolutions by a two-thirds
vote refused tg incorporate even a
very mild gold plank, giving the Al-
mighty credit for meeting the Demo-
| cratic demand for more money by
| supplying more gold.
Judge I'nrker may regard the gold
standard as irrevocably fixed by law,
but the majority of Democrats are
still ready to change the law in both
instances, and they will try to elect a
Congress which will make the changes.
The Democratic party has not changed.
Judge Parker’ telegram is of no more
binding force than was Grover Cleve-
land’s promise that his party would
not destroy the industries of the coun-
try in 1892. But the Wilson-Gorman
tariff bill became a law without Presi-
dent Clevelund’s signature, and dis-
asters followed thick and fast. "Vho-
ever votes the Democratic tickel this
year yotes for the same old Democratic
party which sought control in 1896 and
1900. The record of that party in
Congress has been the same that it
was in the last two national cam-
paigns. It has been loyal to all the
old Bryanisms, and a Democratic ma-
jority in Congress would bring all
these old heresies to the front, not as
party doctrines, but in the form of
legislation to make them National
heresies.
