CONVENTION CALL;

After consultation and correspondence with
the members of the Republican State Committee,
and by their direolton, I hereby give notice that
the Republicans of J'ennsylmnia, by their duly
chosen representatives, will meet in Slate Con
vention at llarrUburg, Wednesday, August 19,
1891, at 10 o'clock A. il., or the purpose of plac
ing in nomination candidates or the ojlcei of
State Treisurer and Auditor General, or the
nomination of eighteen candidates for Delegates-at-Ijarge
to the Coiuttluliontl Qmven'lon pro
vided for in the Act of Assembly approved June
19, 1891, and for the transictlon of such other
business as may be presented, 's
Police is especially directed to the fad that, in
accordance wlthlhc provisions of the last men
tioned act, each Senatorial district is entitled to
a representation of three delegates tn 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
quested to make proper nominations for dele
gates to said convention, the rules governing the
HOtimmffon of candidates for S ate Senator to
be applicable.
In this connection the Cltalrman desires to call
the attention of Republican voters lathe recom
mendation of the State Convention of 18S2, that
, "they allow the greatest freedom in the general
participation in the primaries consistent with
the preservation of th party organisation."

TIN PLATE.
The Increase of manufactories in St.
Louis, Is so great and evident that
nobody should question the announce
ment that the manufacture of tinned
plate on a large scale will soon bo ad
ded to the list. There in every reason
for believing that St. Louis will lead
all other American cities in this line
of manufactures as far ns she now
leads in the chemicals, boots and shoes,
tobacco, beer nnd several other leading
articles of commerce. &'t. Louis Dis
patch, ".Tho manufacture of tinned plato
on a large scale will soon be added to
the list," and this iu spite of the fact
that the McICinley tariff affords no
protection to American- industries.
We fear the Dispatch man will have
to apologize to ills free trade contem
poraries for committing so grievous nn
error. No, gentlemen, free traders,
you had better get out from under,
for the protection train is rolling along
at a splendid speed and American In
dustries nre sprluging up in every sec
tion of the laud, giving employment
nud bringing remuneration unci con
tentment to thousands of our working
people. Lebanon Courier,
' Borne of our Demourutio exchanges are
in a peck of trouble lest the Welsh tin
makers will come hero to make the tin
that we have so often declared we
could not make. Let them come.

During the consideration of Air. Leit-

proporty and the wrong is dono to private
parties. The borough cannot act in the

ended. Ihreo weeks ago Donoy was som

came a raving maniac and had to bo taken
to an asylum. Inch by inch her health

then death stepped in. Pitiful, Isn't it?
