''Tho committee decided that a first- class solid 14k gold watch would be an appropriate jjift. "The talented organizer had no Inti mation of the surprise In waiting for him, and when a largo number of the contributors called on him at tho Penn sylvania IIoU-l at 10 o'clock Saturday evening ai d. having already escorted him to tho parlor of the hotel, present ed him with the hnndnmno timepiece, Mr. Harris was visibly affected. "In presenting the gift of Mr. Harris' friends, tho editor of tho Americnn said no pleasanter duty had been his In many years. He said that Mr. Harris needed no eulogies, that, the splendid condition Industrial and mercantile pur suits are assuming in this territory was largely due o tho untiringly honest efforts of the gentleman whom he hoped would accept the token In tho spirit In which it wai presented that of appre ciation. "Mr. Harris accepted the gift of friends in a feeling and earnest speech, saying what a sunse of pride It gave him to know that his efforts, Bmall though they might have been, to assist labor to rise again was appreciated by the business interests of Mahanoy City. "During thu evening a prominent merchant, whllo speaking at table, made a remark which caught the en dorscment of all present. Ho said there was a strong current running in the direction of Mr. Harris, which the speaker was sure, would carry him into the Senate of Pennsylvania. Tho gon tleman stated that It was In the law making department that men of Harris' known honesty and ability wore sorely needed, and that organized labor was not true to itself If it kept its eyes in a bandage at Buch times.
