CONVENTION CALL.
To the Republican Electors of Pennsytv 'nia:
After consultation and correspondence with
the members of the ItepulMcan Utale Committee,
and by their direction, I hereby Dive notice that
the Republicans of Pennsylvania, by their duly
f,tosn representatives, will meet in mate Con
.ventlon at Harrisburg, Wednesday, August 19,
M391, at Wo'clock A. 31., for the purpose of plac
ing in nomination candidates for the offices of
State Treisurer and Auditor General, for the
nomination of eighteen candidates for Delegates-at-Large
to the Constitutional Convention pro
vided for in the Act of Assembly app'oted June
II), 1S91, and for the Iranstctton of such other
business as may be presented.
j'olieeis especially directed to the fact that, in
accordance with the pyovlslons of the last men
tioned act, each Senatorial district is entitled to
a representation of three delegates in said Con
stitutional Convention, two of whom only can be
members of the majority party in said district.
The electors of each district are therefore re
guested to make proper nominations for dele
gates t i said convention, the rules governing the
iiiminata of candidates for Sate Senator to
be applicable.
In this connection the Chairman desires to call
Vie attention of Republican voters to the recoil
tnrndallon of the State Convention of 1882, Oiat
"they allow the greatest freedom in the general
participation In the primaries consistent with
the preservation oftheparty organization."
'if. If ANDREWS, Chairman.
The McKlnley bill and short crops
havo brought Germany and Fruuce to
their senses in regard to Auiericau
breadstufts and meat. They Hud that
ur pork is nottrichinous after all, and
may bo eaten with safety by both
Frenchmen and Germane, and that
our breadstuff are equally healthful
products.
If the Democratic press and leaders
can be bolloved there aro no new In
dustries growing up in this country,
no lieldsof enterprise being developed,
110 new factories beiug started, no
growth of prosperity in any direction.
It is the wish that is father to the
false assertion. They do not want the
country prosperous because they fear
prosperity will defeat their designs ou
the national government.
They haven't got compulsory vot
ing out in Illinois, but they have the
next thing to it. A law recently en
acted requires the election clerks in
every precinct of Chicago to make a
list of voters who failed ,o register.
This list Is to be used first In drawing
jurors, and until it is exhausted the

Inside of the next ten years. It will
be a proud day for American Industry
when its defeated free-trade, English,
toadying enemy will have to calm his
painfully throbbing nerves with ap

We now import about 3,000,000 pounds
of camphor a year, worth about
$100,00.
The building of a remarkable rail
road, running to the sumpilt of Tike's
I'eak, will long bo remembered as a
wonderful piece of engineering. This
point will now form ono of the great
centers of attraction for tourists, who
will gladly tako advantage of an op
portunlty of a journey to the clouds.
The summit of Pike's Peak is ono of
the highest habitable points ou.tlie
globe, being 14,147 feet above tho love!
of tho sea, while tho starting point of
the railroad is more thau 112 feet
higher thau the summit of Mount
Washington. Those who undertake
this journey, however, should be
cautioned to take with them a sufllc-
lent supply of heavy clothing, because
within a few hours the tourist will
(hid that he has passed through
climates of spring, summer, autumn
and winter. It Is another trluruuh of
American engineering, and will be
the subject of much comment in all
parts of the globe.
