Recent State Delegate

Special Hbhald correspondence.
PorrsviLtH, August IS.
Much more activity among the political
workors Is manifested now thun when I lost
wroto my budget of news. Right here 1
must beg your pardon, for falling to send you
regularly a weekly lettor. Tlio fact or the
matter Is I liavo been rusticating among tlio
mountains and listening to the sad sea waves
for tlio past two wcoks. Whilo away I
mingled with a number of tbo liepublican
stato leaders, and bnd a few moments chat
itli the old man" and bis colleague in tho
Senate, Boles l'enrose.
Tho latter manifests great interest in
Schuylkill county politics, and was especially
interested in tho cloction of stato delegates.
In saying this I do not mean to imply that
our mutual friend, Hoics, "issued orders," but
the fact that tbo two Stato Senators and
Congressman, to say nothing of tho gallant
Major l-innoy, woro candidate for stato dele
gate, naturally created unusual intorost
among tho stato leaders. Tho rosult may
have surprised tho latter, but long ago I pre
dicted tho oulcomo almost as it actually oc
curred.
Tlio defeat of Covlo and Wvatt. whilo It
may fiavo been a tremendous surpriso to
many, win act as ajtvarning to omors within
tho Republican fold, and will of necessity
causo tbo formation of new alliances. Coylo's
disastrous defeat rolcgatoa liim to tlio rear.
and iu tho natural course of events places
him In tbo position of a leader without fol
lowers. Those wJrb supportod him In tho
past under tbo supposition that he had favors
to bestow will now desert bis banner and vow
allegianco to tbo victors. It was over thus,
Tho peoplo havo 119 use for a loser, especially
in pontics, wnile tne Senator fully real zos
that bo is in bad grace with the people of
His district, this tact does not affect bis
equilibrium to tbo extent that his defeat has
upon tho stato leaders. On one or two occa
sions ho assured tlio lattor that he and Wyatt
would represent tho First district in tho stato
convention ; but thoy wont, for the very good
reason that the Republican voters desired
somo ono else. It is bad enough to ho de
feated in a fight for personal vindication, but
to full in grace at "headquarters" is adding
insult to injury.
Viewing tho result from this distance it
strikos mo that Coylo mot a foe worthy of
his stcol. Messrs. Straughn and Brill, tho
successful candidates, aro entitled to much
credit and havo placed themselvos iu lino for
furthor advancement in thodino of political
nonors. liy tlio aid or a small army of sun-
porters, each contributing to tlio common
causo, thoy fought their battlo and gained
thoir victory. And that is tho ono thing
necossary iu politics.
In tho Fourth distiict wo had a battle
royal, and tbo result was a division of honors.
Congressman Brumm and Major Finney were
both successful. It is true Senator Losch fell
by the wayside, but bo tells his friends that
his fight was pot so much to secure his own
olectlon but to- roako cpmrnou causo with
1-inney. Losch threw his strength to tho
lattor, und whilo it may appear 011 the sur-
laco as a aeleat lor tno halo-beaded states
man his friends take sn entirely different
view of tlio matter.
Tho Republican hosts will ho lined up
again on batunlay, wlicn tho party prim
arios will bo held for tho election of delegates
to the county convention, which meots in
this town on Monday. Interest centres in
tho fight for Sheriff, and tho largo number of
candidates iu the field makes tho outcomo
very uncertain. The candidates- so far an
uounced are : II. S. Albright, of Orwigsburg;
C. O. Smith, Mahanoy City; S. Itoll Beddall,
Port Carbon: Clay W. Evans, St. Clali; G
. Poorfllnger, f DtUfville; F. E. Magargle and
John Roberts, Blicnapdoah. The withdrawal
of J. W. Geary, Jr., leaves tlio fip)d pipar fpr
Doorlllnger, who wl rerplvo tip S0 ill ypto
from Pottsvlllo. To say who tho wlnnor
will ho is mere guess work. There aro cer
tain complications entering into tlio contest
that precludes all predictions. It is safe to
say, bowovor, that Albright or Smith will
lead on tbo first and second ballots, and after
that tboro will likely bo a general scramble
to lino up fur the likely winner. Outside of
Smith and Albright, the candidates aro mak
ing their fight for second choice If this
piovcs to bo true, I might venture tho predic
tion tliatS. Jtoll Beddall will bo mighty near
tno top when tbo round-up comes. However.
opinion dinars so much in this respect that
am, to tell the truth, all at sea.
Iu tho Democratic camp the Shrievalty
fight Is assuming an interesting phaso. There
aro threo candidates lu tho field, but it is safe
to say that tho nomination will go to eltbor
Shenandoah of Minersvillo. "Tom" Ulg-
Kins, when 1P hem, appeared very eonfiden
that ho would win, and tliero are many of
the samo oplnlou. "Llttlo Jack" Toole,
howovor, is making an aotlvo fight.
Botli these men are shrewd polit
ical shape in and will enter the con
ventlon with strong following. Deals are
said to havo been made with one or two can
dldates for Poor Plrectorthat will complicate
matters somewhat. Our Democratic friends
display more interest In the Republican
scramble for office than iu their own family
quarrel. Especially is this true in refsreuoe
to the Jifnloial nomination. Judge llechtol
will have no opposition for re-election, and
fur once Schuylkill county will be treated to
a non-partisan judicial canipalgu.
Whether the Republican convention will
nominate Bvohtel, endorse him or leave tho
office vacant is yet to be' determined by that
hotly. There have been several changed iu
the ballot law, and It is said ono of thein
to the effect that a candidate's uamo cannot
appear twice upon the same ballot. I have
not read tbe new law, but a leading attorney
interprets tho law in that manner. If this
be truo, should tbo Republicans nominate
llechtol his name cannot appear iu tho Demo
cratic column, and ho would be elected as
Uepubllpau. The same gentleman Is author
ity for the statement that there lg nothing i
tho electiou law prohibiting either nartv
from nominating two candidates for Jury
Commissioner. Heretofore each party has
nominated hut one person for this office, and
as a result a nomination was equivalent to an
election. But things will be different should
eaeh party present two candidates for th
ollloe.
Tbe Democratic eonventlou will be con
trolled by the free silver wlug of that party
They can do what they please, so far as the
financial question is ooucerned. Tho sound
motley hion am taking Tory little luterut In
tbo contest, and m 0110 of tliem oxpreesed It
yesterday, ''We- don't cure fig what tbe
convention does with the financial question
or who thoy nominate. Our tlmo will come
noxt year." It is likely that the convention
will follow, the esahiple of the Maryland
Democrat, and straddle the question.
The rMUlt of the state delegate election
linn canned many of the Itepubllcau 1 Bailors
to do "some tall thinking." While each of
them have their personal choice for tlio
various offices to 1 filled, they are all laying
their plana to tecure the election of n county
chairman of their own choosing with a view
to controlling the organization. For this
reason, two candidates for Jury Commissioner
may be nominated. The control of the
organisation by either faction will be a point
gained in tbo great battle for supremacy noxt
year. And it will he n battle roynl, too.

JACOB S. COXEY FOR GOVERNOR !
Charges That Antt-Fusionists Had Been
Corrupted by Hanna's Money Led to a
Row Which Necessitated a Call on
the Police far Protection.
Columbui, O., Aus;. 12. Fusion was
repudiated yesterday by the Populists
of Ohio In a manner bo emphatic as
to leave no ohance for controversy rs
ganllng the future policy of the party.
The Populist state convention, by an
overwhelming1 majority, severed the al
liance made a year ago with the Dem
ocats on the free silver Issue and nom
inated a full state ticket, headed by
Jacob S. Coxey of "commonweal" fame
as the nominee for governor. Turbu
lent scenes marked the opening of the
convention. The nnti-fualonlsW had
swept everything before them, captur
ing tho temporary and permanent or
ganization and all the committees, and
they were on their mettle. Nor was
tho policy adopted by the fuslonists
calculated to temper the feeling which
had been aroused among the mlddle-of-
tlie road delegates, The threat of the
fuslonists to explode a bomb In the
convention was like flaunting a red
flag, and when the convention assem
bled the delegates were ready for any
surprise that might be sprung.
Tho report of the committee on rules
and order of business brought out tho
promised sensation. The report pro
vided that no speech should exceed
five minutes, regardless of the subject
discussed. Several delegates immedi
ately joined in a protest against this
provision, claiming that It was con
trary to the fundamental principle of
the People's party, and an amendment
was offered to strike out of the report
tne obnoxious section.
Finally Peter Witt, of Cleveland, se
cured recognition from Chairman Seltz,
and mounting a chair proceeded to de
nounce the committee making the re
port, and asserted that the convention
had been bought out by Mark Hanna.
lie claimed that delegates had been
bribed by the Republicans, and he had
tho proof providing ho was given nn
opportunity to produce It. The matter
could not be presented In five minutes,
nor discussed in that time, and he
charged that the committee's report
was aimed to prevent It. As Witt
waived aloft in his hand a piece of
paper, which he claimed was a. cheak
that had been given to ono of the dele
gates by an agent of JIark Hanna, ho
launched Into a bitter invective against
the antl-fuslonlsts, charging that all of
them had been corrupted by Hanna
money.
A score of delegates were on their
feet In an Instant crowding around the
chair on which Witt stood. When ono
of the delegates attempted to pull Witt
oft 'the chair the latter struck at the
delegate, and a general mplee ensued
In which several blows were exchanged
and chairs raised aloft In a threaten
lng manner, A policeman, who was
present, rushed In and 'Interrupted the
hostilities, and a few minutes later a
platoon of police reached the hall and
the convention proceeded, after order
had been restored, with a blue coat on
guard In onch nlsle.Tlie police remain
ed until the convention took a final
adjournment.
The antl-fuslonlsts were not in the
least dismayed by the charges that
had been made, and the report of the
committee on rules and order of bust
ness was adopted In its ariglnal form
by a vote of C36 to 170, which was the
(lrst nccurate Bhowing of the ..relative
strength or the Tactions.
The convention then effected a per
mnnept organization. Temporary
Chairman John Belts! was made per
manent chairman. The resolutions
adopted reaffirmed the Populist plat
porms adopted by the Omaha and St.
Louis conventions of the party.
Before the morning session closed a
resolution was adopted providing for
the appointment of a committee to in
vestigate charges made on tho floor
of the convention that delegates had
been corrupted. The fuslonists who
made the charges opposed an inves
tigation by a committee, claiming that
it should be made In open convention.
At the afternoon session the follow
ing state ticket was nominated: For
governor, Jacob Coxey: lieutenant gov
ernor, Morris Whltcomb; supreme Jpdiw,
D. C. Pomeroy; attorney general, C, A.
neider; state treasurer. F. M, Morris.

went to Major Charles Pick and told
him the Populists were dissatisfied with
the Democratic campaign and sug
gested that the fusion might be broken
up. He referred to Hugo Preyor an a
prominent Topullst whose services
would be worth securing, and arranged
for a conference later between Major
Dick and Preyor and hlmsWlf.
At that conference, he claimed, Major
Dick agreed to pay the expenses of

vention. Major Dick asked them If they
needed any money for expenses, and
Preyor said he did not Taylor ac

"Oni- Xoblo Champion."
Roanoke, Va., Aug. 1!. The Demo
cratic state convention was called to
order yesterday by General George J.
Hundley. O. D. Letcher was temporary
chairman and IS. W. Saunders perma
nent chairman.
Every denunciation of the gold
standard by the speakers elicited ap
plause from the convention. The first
greatest outburst of cheering was
evoked by Chairman Saunders' declara
tion that Wlillmn J. Bryan will be the
president in 1900. At the conclusion of
his speech Mr. Saunders was given a
hearty ovation.
Judge Samuel Williams, of Wythe,
presented a communication from the
committee appointed by the Populist
state convention which nominated Ed
mund It. Cocke for lieutenant governor.
This communication was referred to
the committee on resolutions.
The platform makes the following de
claration: "We reaffirm the platform of the na
tional Democratic convention adopted
In Chicago in July, 1896, and upon which
W. J. Bryan was nominated for the
presidency of the United States, and we
extend our congratulations to our no
ble champion upon the able and bril
liant manner In which he discharged
the trust reposed in him. The fact
that he received more votes than any
candidate for the presidency and more
than any cnndldate of any party, sav
lng alone his successful opponent. Is
evidence that Democratic principles
aro still dear to a vast mass of the
American neople."
The Dlnttley tariff Is denounced, an
Income tax favored, and the free and
unlimited coinage of gold and silver
at the ratio of 10 to 1 demanded. The
platform also declares for primary
elections to Indicate the popular choice
for United States senntor and com
mits legislative candidates to accept
the result of these primaries.
The nomine for governor Is James
Hoge Tyler, while Edward Echols, of
Staunton, was nominated for lieuten
