Ity Dcleuato Anderson, of Beaver, One of the Genial Senator's Neighbors One of the Shortest Wills on Record. 1'lx up the Sidewalks A Flea for the Cummerbund. Delegate Joseph Anderson, of Beaver, is a close neighbor of Senator Quay, and often spends an evening with the Beaver statesman, Mr. Anderson is foreman of the composing room of the Pittsburg Chronicle' Telegraph and travels to Pitt9burg and back home every day. A genial, talented gentle man, he is fond or a gooa tens uus ono about Senator Quay: At the close of the last campaign, when Senator Quay had been awav from home for a long time, he returned and was warmly greeted by his old neighbors.

Among the latter was a young man, to whom tbo Senator said: "How is your fathor "He is dead," said the young man; "he died a month ago." "Is that so aid the Senator, "I'm very sorry to hear it." The next day, in walking about the town Senator Quay met the same young man. and shook hands with him again, for getting that he had met him the day before, and aijaiu did he ask the question: "How is your father The young man looked at him and said sadly: "He is still dead." Gossip thought, when he alluded to the last will and testament of the late William B. Till, of Harrisburg, the other day, that that document, which covers but a single page of note paper, took the prize for brevity and conciseness. But it seems that the will of the late Colonel Fordney, of Lancaster, in his day a leading lawyer of that city, is still briefer and more concise, mat instrument, which was probated yesterday, is written on piece of paper about the size of a bank check, and contains but fivo lines, of which two are occupied by the date and signature. Thus in three lines Mr.

Fordney disposes of iiis handsome estate, which he bequeaths to his wife for life. It has happened that the wills left by some of the most astute lawyers have led to tedious and expensive litigation, a conspicuous instance of this being the will of the late Samuel J. Tilden. But there is little room for litigation over wills of the character of which that of Mr. Fordney is so conspicuous an example.

A walk through the streets of our city will convince the promenader that there are many sidewalks which require repairing. Daring the present rainy season sunken or loose bricks, of which many aro to be found on nearly every street, deprive promenading of much of the pleasure it usually affords. To step into a little puddle of water caused by a sunken brick or two, or to have a jet of muddy water Beat up one trouser leg, is calculated to ruffle the temper of the most amiable promenader. In many cases the trouble can be remedied easily and at little expense, and in such cases at least, there is no excuse for failnre to do so. Good streets and sidewalks are an honor to a community, and public spirited citizens should do their part to keep those of our city in good condition.

defender of the cummerbund, or sash forcetlemen, writes to the New York World, protesting against adverse comment regarding that article of dress. He says: "In these hot, sweltering days, when the starched linen collars and cuffs and shirts give place to the comfortable silk and flannel shirts, and the vest is discarded, something is needed to take the place of the latter. Nothing so dressy and neat can be compared to the cool of soft silk oround the waist It hides tthe unsightly band of the trousers with its array of buttons, and gives every advantage a vest affords without that article's increasing heat. By all means encourage the sash. It is not the prerogative the dude, but of thousands of day laboring clerks." There, now, ye carpers! Go to, and let us alone with our cummerbunds and our comfort.

The Cuban Giants will play the home club on the Sixth street grounds to morrow afternoon and Friday afternoon. Two close games are assured.

Manager Bright of the Cuban Giants says as Clarence Williams, Thomas and, Frye are giving him trouble, he will have to suspend one of them as a lesson to the other two players. The patrons of base ball at Dauphin are not well pleased with the insinuation that has been made that the spectators of the game are rowdyish. We can readily believe the opposite, because the good people of Dauphin are built upon a different plan. In the game between Hummelstown and Dauphin, Binn played with the former. A meeting of the Harrisburg amateur league was held last night The forfeited game of the Ironsides was referred to the executive board for decision.

A communication 'was read stating that Samuel Sour bier had been elected manager of the Centrals and Oliver Perry of the Ironsides. The question of dues was also decided, after which the League adjourned to meet at the call of the president. The schadule committee met after the meeting and arranged a new schedule, which will be announced later. A DAY'S EVENTS AT STEEkTON.

.1. I thank vnn far Mi a hnnn. ui your selection as chairman of this Republican Convention, and ask your co operation, that the result of our deliberations may be alike honorable to ourselves and the grand party we represent I congratulate you upon the proud distinction of being representatives of the Republican party of Pennsylvania to day. Since we hut met another great battle in the nation has been fouirht nnd won. One year ago Democracy, which for twenty years had been skulkinir in the shadow of defeat.

was in the haughty and assured possession of the National Government I congratulate yon that to day they are again sent to the rear, and the Republic is in the hands of its friends. I am proud of Pennsylvania's share in that important contest and victory. As during the civil war, Pennsylvania supplied at Gettysburg the decisive battle ground of the Republic, when the tide of re oeuion was turned which finally ebbed at Appomattox. So in the struggle of 1888 Pennsylvania famished the keynote of the platform upon which the mighty contest was was waged Protection to American Indut try which has been the corner stone of every PennsylvaniaRepublican platform since the organization of the party, was made the national issue. As in 1863, the nation's destiny was determined upon Pennsylvania soil under Pennsylvania leadership, so in jobs its permanence and prosperity was assured upon a Pennsylvania platform and under a Pennsylvania cotnander.

(As in war 'a fearful carnage the wise and patient Meade and the heroic Hancock conquered treason, so in the monstrous campaign of 1883 the peerless Quay, by the force of his masterly management, stayed the onward march of Democratic free trade.) I congratulate yoq that as the first fruits of that magnificent victory, the country now enjoys a wise and statesmanlike administration, made illustrious by the presence and united counsels of President Harrison and his brilliant secretary, Jamea G. Blaine. I congratulate you that once more both branches of Congress and the President are in full accord, and that the Supreme Court remains ours. We possess a rich inheritance. The result of the inspirations, the deliberations, the labors, the fierce contests of the Repnblican party daring all its life is ours.

Jt is needless to recount this glorious record. A dismembered nation reunited; slavery exterminated and freedom and equality before the law guaranteed; universal manhood suffrage granted; a protective taint enacted and adjusted to tha wants of the time; the education of the people in the public schools; the adoption of a wise financial policy, resulting in the safest banking system in the world and the early payment of the public debt; the promotion of internal improve ments, thereby developing our vast resource marvelonsly; the enactment ot our beneficent homestead laws, and the thoughtful provision of pensions for our invalid soldiers and sailors. Indeed, whatever of good has been accomplished daring the last generation by the American republic has been the work of the Repnblican party, and this in spite of tho deadly hostility of the Democratic party. We glory in a party which in the exercise of a liberal, broad and progressive spirit, has "from the first embodied the progress, reform, education and natural prosperity of the When I say embodied, 1 mean all that word implies. Great results in State craft as well as in business, arc not accomplished easily.

They imply, not only the inspiration of the right and the public declaration thereof, bat the thorough, constant and persistent control of tho foices at hand to practically apply those princip.es to the situation. The herculean task accomplished by the Republican organization has been because, to an eminent degree, its leaders have recognized this trnth, and iiave united all elements to bring forth practical results. A most thorough organization, therefore, is indispensable for the success of a party. Pennsylvania points witb pride to the efficiency of her Republican organization. Her almost nniforin overwhelming Republican majorities attest this.

We rejoice in these great successes, bat we mourn the loss of him to whom in a very large degree is due the credit of moulding and perfecting the organization which made them possible. Of all great Pennsylvanians none are dearer to us than Simon Cameron. We revere las memory, and warmly sympathize with his family and worthy successor. We are met on the eve of another campaign. Let our coarse be in line with that of onr predecessors.

Let ns be loyal, true and united. Let oar declaration of principles be plain, positive and honest and the splendid candidate whoso unanimous nomination by the people we are hsre to approve and officially announce, our victory is already won. The great enemy of the country is tectiomilitm. That party which countenances or encourages it deserves the reprobation of every citizen. One of the most familiar phrases in the American language of the time is "Vie Solid SouUu" Any child who can read understands it, and will easily explain its meaning.

Yet look upon the map, and there is nothing to designate any such locality or country. What then is it that identifies it in the minds of all men? It is that section over which slavery cast its evil eye, engendering the spirit of caste; where this spirit drove men into wicked rebellion, the fires of which were only quenched by the mingled blood of the inst and the unjust It is that territory where, notwithstanding the awful sacrifice, there was yet no peace though one had been declared. It is that locality where race prejudice has so blinded the eyes of men that even yet free thought and free Epeech are dangerous, and a free vote and fair count unheard of and unexpected. In a word, it is that country which was once solid for slavery, afterwards solid for rebellion, and now solid for Democracy. How to break the solid South has been the ruling question ot every campaign since tne war.

iiwouiu seem that almost every expedient bas been resorted to to accomplish the result The Fifteenth amendment to the Constitution, giving all men, irrespective ot color, the right to vote, was adopted. It was offered as a safeguard to the emancipated slave. But because of their ignorance and poverty it has beeu turned into a curse rather than a blessing. and instead of restraining and counteracting, has really added to the power of the dominant whites in the South by adding two fifths to their repiesentation. To prevent this Grant who, though conqueror, had proved himself as gencrons as he was great at Appomattox, used the power of bis administration for full, free, fair and honest elections.

The resolt was riot, bloodshed and midnight maraudings. Then the opposite extreme was tried, and the olive branch was extended by President Haves. With what result everybody knows. Peace and quietness reigns, it is true, but I not the genuine article. I have spoken thus, not because of anv love for the dixairreeahle subiect.

bnt because the exigencies of the time, and the mission of our party demand HARRISBURG, WEDNESDAY EVENING, AUGUST 7, 1889. VOL. IjVIII. NO. 197.

Veterans Entitled to First Choice. Washington, Aug. 6. In response to a letter of inquiry from W. B.

Cooley, chief clerk of the Post Department, James N. Tyner, Assistant Attorney General for the Post Office Department, wrote that when the Civil Service Commission certified three names for appointment and one of them was a discharged 6ailor or soldier, he must be selected for the place. It was suggested in the inquiry that if the appointing power were allowed no choice in such a case it would be useless for the Commission to certify more than the one name of the ex soldier or sailor. Mr. Tyner said as to tbis that if the name of but one eligible were certified that person might become incapacitated or fail to appear; hence the conveni ence and desirability of having three names on the list Pensions for Pennsylvanlans.

Washington, Aug. 6. The following pensions were granted to Pennsylvanians, issue of July 30th: Original invalid George Tanner, Jacob Isenberger, John Davis. Increase Wm. H.

Frances, Thomas Lighthill, Samuel Belsher, Wesley Humber, Charles P. Clark, Cyrus F. Kelley, James W. Kane, Joseph Hager, Ezra C. Browing, Alvah C.

Pretty much everybody said this morning when the sun shone ont beautifully that this was regular Republican weather, with bine skies propitious of harmony and victory, and the work Of the State Convention will undoubtedly bear out what pretty much everybody said. The delegates and their friends had a good night's rest, because they went to bed early. There wasn't anything else to do, and they got np this morning ready for the convention, and prepared to again help the nation in the capacity of statesmen. Chairman Andrews and Secretary Leach had made the most careful preparation in the Opera House for the comfort and conven ience of the delegates. A decorator from Philadelphia had spread flags and bunting through the interior in the most elaborate manner.

American flags were bnnched along the gallery rails, bright colored bunting concealed the front of the galleries, a group of State flags hung over the entrance to the main aisle, while on ever pillar hung shields and banners. The pillars to the right and left of the stage were covered with flags, and the center pannels were concealed by starry banners and shields. Hang ins: at the rear of the stage, surrounded by American flags, was the coat of arms of Pennsylvania. Even the President's desk was covered with bunting, and the reporter's pine tables were hidden beneath a wreath of red, white and blue. On the President's table was a huge basket of roses, and near it the Senate gavel and gavel block.

Everybody said it was the most complete arrangement ever made for a State Convention in this city. Getting Together. By 10 o'clock the delegates began to flock into the Opera Honse. First to come were Senator Boies Penrose, Hon. David IL Lane and Representative Brooks.

Ex Representatives Foster, of Luzerne, and Shoemaker, of Backs, sat near each other. Hon. J. S. Fruit with the Mercer delegation sat in the parquet, lhe Philadelphia delegation was headed by Revenue Collector David Martin.

General Wm. Lilly, of Mauch Chunk, ambled in wearing a farmer straw hat and a big bine badge. Then came Representative Connell, of Philadelphia; the yonthful C. Harry Stinson, of Montgomery; General Frank Reeder, of Easton; genial Ed. Stuart, who will be Philadelphia's next Mayor; Senator Dela mater, of Crawford Representative Lytle, of Huntingdon; Colonel Bob Dearden, Philadelphia; ex Postmaster McCleary, of Pittsburg; Major E.

A. Mon tooth, who came in as a substitute delegate from Allegheny, and was greeted with a ronnd of applause; Mercantile Appraiser Houseman, of Philadelphia; United States District Attorney Walter Lyon, of Pittsburg, and many others. Chairman Andrews was greeted with loud applause when he walked upon the stage at 10:20 o'clock and took his seat. He bowed his thanks for the conrtesy and then hid behind the big basket of roses. Meantime the Paxton band in the gallery played a lively tone and the hall rapidly filled np.

Called to Order. At exactly 10:30 Chairman Andrews called the convention to order in very few words, and secretary L.each read the call for the convention and then called the roll of delegates as follows: Dlst. FAYETTB. A. F.

Lyon to the chair, which pleasant duty was performed and Mr. Lyon was introduced by Chairman Andrews. Dir. Lyon's Speech. Mr.

Lyon on taking the chair, said: I can but thank you for the honor you have conferred upon the county of Allegheny in selecting one of her delegetes to preside over this convention. Since last the Repnblican party of the State of Pennsylvania has assembled in convention, the great contest between the two trreat parties of the nation has been fought, and with no uncertain voice has the verdict of the people upon the question at issue been rendered. The chair that was occupied by Grover Cleveland when this convention last met is now occupied by a man in whose honor, integrity, wisdom and patriotism the confidence and trnst of the people reposes, the Repnblican soldier protectionist President, our own Benjamin Harrison. We not only rejoice in the part the Republican party of Pennsylvania has taken in bringing this about, but we also rejoice in the fact that to the Republi can party or Pennsylvania is doe tne credit of furnishing the great political General under whose leadership the victory was won. And on the assembling of this, the first convention since the victory of '88, we can congratulate ourselves on the harmony which prevails in our party.

Dissensions, discords and factions are rapidly disappearing, and to day we are assembled stronger than ever we were in the history of the party in this State. Gentlemen of the convention, I hope the business of the convention will be harmonious. The Chair awaits the pleasure of the convention. No Debate oa Herniations. Senator Penrose offered a resolution which was unanimously adopted as follow Hesoloed, That all resolutions and all communications relating to the platform be referred to the Committee on Resolutions without amendment or debate.

The Rales. Mr. Rose, of Cambria, offered the follow ing, which was agreed to: Besolved, That this convention be governed by the rnles of the Honse of Representatives of Pennsylvania in so far as they are applicable. Resolutions were adopted fixing the order of business and providing for the creation of committees. The Committees.

Up till the last campaign no man could absolutely prove the position of the Democratio party upon the tariff. As it bad been upon all questions since 1860, it was "all things to all men." in rennsyivanla Mr. Randall talked protective tariff. In Kentucky Carlisle was for free trade.

In Illinois Atbrrisoo was well "toriionlal" Thank God that Cleveland, either compelled by the Southern coterie which sar ronnded him, or induced by an overweening confidence in his own good lack, at last an nounced tne troth. And Democracy was HUIUMI.VU The greatest blessing of a protective tariff, as indubitably shown in our own State, is the promotion of a diversity of business interest, and a home market South ot Mason aud Dickson's line lie States which almost rival our own great Commonwealth is nat ural resources.

This, under Northern management and thrift is employing Southern labor to develop Southern natural resource in hundreds of different directions.

These enterprises can only be developed and carried on under protection. At least the mea who are putting their money into aod manage them telieve so. The Democracy hare pub nciy avowea tncir antagonism to protec tion. Self interest controls men avarva here. Tho men operating these enterprises will grow rich and prosperous.

Those whom they employ, largely colored, will gain ia worldly affairs, and in the same ratio will gain in self respect and conrag. white men will not look on Idle. Thev, too, Sevltoo. will engage in what is prosperous and, one interest being dependent opon another, new unes oi tnongnu wm be started aad new issues developed. Innumerable railroads arc already being bnilt to accommodate the new and increased business, thus facilitating and inviting largely increased intercourse between all sections.

A man does not need to be a prophet to foretell the result Mason and Dixon's line will be obliterated, and the solid South will exist no longer. The Solid South casts 153 Democratic electoral votes, lite great indacement to this solidarity has been that it really limits the fighting ground of the Democracy in a national campaign to three or four States. In every recent campaign the Democratic party bas practically nad a reserve ot these 153 electoral votes, subject to call, and has only had to fight for 43. While the Republican party, slriviog for 201 votes, has had to extend its liucs over the entire country, from the Atlantic to the I'acitic. it li marvelous that daring all these campaigns the enemy, with aoca opportunities for concentration, has out broken our lines more than once.

And it is almost Inconceivable that having once entered ont ramparts, we have been able to eject them. Remove the inducement to the solid South by increasing the number of States wherein the poison ot the old slavery and rebellions spirit bas never entered, and compel the Democracy to extend their lioes of battle. Why did the Democratic Congress so long prevent the admission of Dakota and other territories, notwithstanding the fact that by population aod material development they were more than prepared for Statehood, and, finally, only taae tne necessary action alter their crashing defeat last fall They made a virtue of necessity, and sought in the last moment to forestall the inevitable action of the Republicans. Four new stars have hardly yet appeared upon our flag. Bat they are harbingers of hope to Republicans everywhere, particularly to oar brothers in the South.

The moment the solid South to be tho ruling faction in national election it will disintegrate and Republican control of i. me mur ncwoiaics wm virtually oeade iota. The degree of prosperity of any Government depends upon the intelligence of iu citizens. For a time other and incidental causes may produce thrift but permanence and stability can only be assured by education. The great and diverse business enter prises Jw hu will be encouraged to a tart in ths Sooth by the pro recti re tar iff, will themselves tend to educate the people.

But in addition theie mast be some comprehensive system of education, which, under the supervision of proper authorities, will educate the masse. This is not only a measure of safety, but aa act of simple justice. We can never hope to repay our colored wards for the injury resulting from slavery. We can only nope to put them the way ot gradual growth to a higher manhood. Thos supplementing the effects of protection and the admission of the four new States, with education, sectionalism as exemplified in the solid Sooth will cease to dangerously threaten us.

We are met as Pennsylvanians and have to deal particularly with questions which appertain to the Commonwealth. The second State in the Union in population, natural advantage and business development she is first in Republicanism. Her record is equally glorious in peace and war. As in the past let ns ever remember her soldier sons. Not only the dead, but the living and by onr devotion to their best interest, emulate something of the spirit which inspired them.

Let ns record onr admiration of our soldier Governor, whose administration in peace is as judicious and safe as bis career in war was heioic Let us pause and meditate over the dire catastrophe which bas recently visited a large portion of onr people, weping with those who weep, bat glorying in the humanity which supplies as far as possible all earthly wants. Let us adhere to the policy of a proper and progressive control of the liquor traffic. Let us recommend a careful adjustment of taxation whereby the burdens will bear equally upon all interests. Let labor be protected, capital conserved, corporations wisely controlled and agriculture nurtured. The Republican party of 1'cnnsjlvania is not an exclusive organization.

Its principles are as free as the air we breathe, or the sunlight which all enjoy. Any man who looks forward, and not backward; ho is honest, faithful and brave, and whose tendencies are for the elevation of mankind, is invited to take part in it management It is no close corporation, reserving advancement for the favored few, bnt its highest honors are open to the grarp of hira wboe merits and courage deserve and win them.

It was referred to as "that brilliant Secretary," the convention arose and cheered wildly. So, too, was the ap plauno when mention was made of our candidate, Hon. Ileury K. Itoyer.
