REPUBLICAN STATE CONVENTION.
To the Uepubll-nu electors of Pennsylvania:
The Itcpubllcnns of Pcnntylvnnln, by their duly
chosen representative, will meet In Stato con

two candidates for Presidential electors, the
selection of eight delcgatcs.ntdargc to the Re
publican Nntlonal convention, and for the

presented.
By order of the State Committee.

That McKinlcy meeting in Philadelphia
only needed ttiu name of ono man to touch
oil' the enthusiasm, unci he was sojourning
in Florida.
Tin: McKinlcy ttcmoii.lratioii urrnngcil for
Saturday evening last in Philadelphia, re
sulted in a ilat failure. The disgruntled
leaders of that city have, lieon ilcsciedited
by tho pooplo on bever.il occasions and their
advocacy of any candidate will work to tho
latters detriment.
It looks as though spring had como to re
main with us fur a while. She is perfectly
welcome to stay hur time out if sliu will
promise not to allow inter to again sit down
in her lap. Such conduct on her part would
lie very indecorous, and would Mibject her to
the social ban. She has already dono too
much of this kind of unseemly ilirliiig, and
if she would preserve a vestige of her good
name she must behave herself from this time
on .
Tin: action of the Health Ollicer of Potls
ville in notifying teamsters who are accus
tomed to pass through tho streets with wagon
loads of manure, of which half is dropped on
the thoroughfares that iu order to cunfonn
with the rules and regulations of tho Hoard,
they will not bo allowed to diive through tho
town unless tho wagons aro covered or side
streets selected as the loute, is an example
that can bo emulated with much benollt by
wvcry similar oll'uer in thocouuty. The dis
agreeable odor is not conducive to tho
pleasantness of the atmosphcie uud the oll'al,
to say tho least, is not needed in keeping the
main thoroughfaies in good condition.
Tin; right of Hun. "Jack" liohlnson to flop
to McKinlcy says the Pittsburg Leader, can
ho (iiiestioiied by no man. Plopping is a
fundamental privilege of American citizen,
bhip, and there need be no limit to its ex
ercise. Hut there is much in the iiitcrprta
tion that can bo placed upon a lion, and now
that Mr. Kubiu.un's performance iscoustiucd
far and wide as meaning that Senator (uay
lias flopped, too, the time has cleaily come to
Judge a protest against the popular conception
of the dignity that hedges the flop artist. In
the present case llobiusoii cariies lol.in.on
with him, and no more, and ho cannot Miy
bu too emphatically for the benefit of an in
quiring public.
Ait.uiuntlv everything Is not sereno in
tho McKinlcy camp. An Ohio Itepubliian,
who is a cluse friend of ox-Oovcrnor Foraker,
heard tho latter make this statement : "We
luiM) had enough cowards and iugratcs iu
the White House. I would much rather see
Senator Quay President than any other can
didate mentioned for tho ollice. Of colli so
my state is for McKinlcy, and 1 shall go to
the St. Louis Couveutiou and do all in my
power to Humiliate liliu. We ought to have
a President who will recognize putty leaders,
iind not close tho doors of tho White Hou.o
against tho rank and lllu uf tho party, as
many of our Presidents iu tho past have
done."
It ought to bo ascertained, onco for all,
whether tho storloa of Spanish outrages iu
Cuba as, for instance, tho burying alive of
two men supposed to bo Ju sympathy with
tho patriots aie true. That being done, if
tho tale prove true Cuban independence
ought to be rooogulzed by this country insido
of 2 1 hoars. The Cubans declare iu the most
emphatic manner that tho half has notbicu
told concerning Spanish cruelty and inhu
manity. On his bide Weyler denies it us
solemnly. It is ory easy, however, to
disclaim responsibility fur outrages that
nitderolllcors do by tho assertion that they
exceeded orders and tho commanding general
regrets it greatly, etc. That seems to lie
what Weyler does. Hut this uuglit not to he
allowed to serve as un oxcuso for continued
biiti'lierios.
