At KEZITEZR'S Frank willing: Leach Announces That He Is a Candidate. HIS ABILITIES AS AN ORGANIZER Interview With the Present Chairman of the Pennsylvania State Executive Com mittee How he Organized the Re publicans of North Carolina. Philadelphia, March 17. Frank Will ing Leach today announcocl himself ns n condldato for chairman of tho Pennsyl vania Kopubllcnu stnto committee, to suc ceed Senator Quay, who will not accept a re-election. Mr. Leach Is now tho chair man of tho exocutlvo committee of tho stato coinmlttoo. Aftor having mado the announcement ho was asked whothcr or not Senator Quay favored his candidacy, and to this inquiry bo ropllod; "Where Is It likely that Senator Quay would bo In tho present contest for stato chairman? Ho li not tho kind of a man to exhibit the Ingratitude which ho has so vigorously denounced In others. WLllo I FUAUK WILLING LEACH. do not expect him to roslgn any ofllco, or dovoto two months to tho work, In order to securo tho chairmanship for mo," said Mr. Loach good humorcdly, "I of courso look for his cordial support. "It Is not my doslro, however, to bo mado stato chairman simply becauso of my friendship for him or dovotton to his political fortunes. If tho olllco Is given to mo It must bo sololy becauso of fitness, by oxporlunco and otherwlso, for tho work of organization, and becauso of a doslro on the part of active party workers through out tho stato, whoso wishes should bo con sulted and followed, that I should bo placed at tho head of tho stato organiza tion. Unless that fitness and tho oxlsteuco of such a desire shall bo mado manifest I will not ask for or accept tho ofllco." "What special object havoyou In vlow," Mr. Leach was asked, "In desiring tho stato chairmanship?" "Simply to bring tho stato organization, In this lmportaut presidential year, to tho highest posslblo stato of perfection. In tho campaign of 1885, whon I first becamo Identified with tho stato commltteo as first nsslstant secretary, our organization com prised 15,000 votors that is to say, wo cor responded with that number of pooplo. The work was considered quite stupen dous. In tho following year, whon I bo catno chief secretary, our list embraced 80,000 voters. From tlmo to time tho scopo of our work hus been broadened, until last fall, when wo gathered tho names and ud dresses of over 400.0JO Uopubllcans In fact, overy single Republican voter In tho state, except In throo counties. During that campaign wo spent for postage alono fl),034, of which sum $8,000, representing 400,000 two cent stamps, was spent within a period of forty-eight hours. I am satis fled this lino of work added from 00,000 to 100,000 to our majority of 174,000. "I shall not consider tho perfection of organization to havo been attained, how ever, until tho state commltteo has In Its archives tho name, address, politics and vocation of overy one of tho 1,000,009 vqtors In Pennsylvania. If mado chairman of tho stato commltteo I would start In within twenty-four hours aftor tho adjournment of tho stato convention to gather tho data In question, with tho hope of carrying tho etato by tho largest majority over given In u presidential year. While, during tho past ten yoars, great advances In tho lino of organization havo boon mado by tho state committee, I want to make tho effort to broaden It yot further before I glvo up tho work of political dovolopmont." "But could you not do this us chairman of the executive commlttoe?" "Possibly, but I will not. Under no cir cumstances win I continue In my present offlco." From 1885 to 1893 Mr. Loach was socre tary of the stato coinmlttoo, and from 1883 to 1893 was ulso assistant secretary of the Republican national committee. Last August ho was seleetod by Chairman Quay ns chairman ot tho stato oxccutlvo com mittee In 1S88, acting upon bohnlf of tho na tional commltteo, Mr. Leach spout two months In North Carolina, and conducted the stato campaign thero. Ho mado an offoctlvo still hunt. Ho porfootod nn or ganization such as had nover boon known In any southern stato boforo. Mr. Loach had tho satisfaction ot knowing that, though tho stato was lost, throo Republi can congressmen woro elected, which really saved tho house of tho Fifty-first congross to tho Republican party. A change ot throo votes would havo glvon tho Democrats a majority ot one. As a result of tho methods ot organiza tion lutroducod In 1888 by Mr. Loach Nor,th Carolina Is now a Republican state, the present legislature having a largo Re publican majority. A'robably nothing ever gave Mr. Loach gjreatorpromluonco, or gained lilm so fully tlio rospoct of tho public, as his aotlon last funnier In resigning a $8,0M olllco that Af reijlostato doputy sheriff In order to lako charge of Senator Quay's campaign (fyr tho stato chairmanship, the olllco for jrhleh Mr. Loach Is uowunusplrant. That tho success of that memorable cumualon. winch oponod undor such adverse circum stances, was largely duo to tho systematic, persistent work of Mr. Loach, at his Pino street hoadquartors, Is conceded by thoso familiar with the development of that great political coutost. Senator W. H. Andrews, who was chair man of tho stato committee In 18'JCV Is also spoken of as a possible candidate for the chairmanship this year. Great Northern Employe! May Strike.

OPENED WITH CHURCH SERVICE A Street Parade of the Local Irish Societies Followed-The Town Had a Holiday . Appearance and All the Collieries In the District Were Idle. Ireland's natal day was very appropriately celebrated in town to-day and the streets presented quite a holiday appearance, al though tho parade was not quite as largo as expected. This was probably due to tho fact that many who should have been in lino gavo the Defender Hoso Company a hand at its ball last night and did not wake early enough to-day. However, tho panido was a very crcdltablo ono and the organiza tions in lino presented a good appearance. At uino o'clock this morning tho St. Pat rick's Society,' which arranged tho celebra tion, met at Mcllet's hall and proceeded be hind tho Lithuanian Hand to tho Annuncia tion church, on West Cherry street, where mass was celebrated.
