THE STATE CONVENTION.

The Republican State Convention met at
Philadelphia on the . ult., for the purpose
Of nominating candidates for Governor and
Judge Of the Supreme Court Governor
Gieary was re-nominated on the first ballot
by the overwhelming majority Of Id to II.
A desperate effort had been made by few
political tricksters to prevent bis re-nomina-
ton but their utmost effort proved miser-
able abortion. Governor Geary was nomi
mated three years ago contrary to the wishes
Of the same political ring and triumpbantly
elected as the choice Of the people aud not
Of the politicians a man of the people
from among the people, he has given such
general satisfaction that the masses of the
Republican party who only ask an upright
and honest administration have almost unan-
imously re-nominated him on the first bal
lot As the candidate of the party of Re
treHchmens and Reform and one of its no.
blest representatives, he viii be again tri-
umphautly elected. As a man who dares
to obey conscience rather than politicians,
who labors in his official capacity for the
good Of the people and not simply for per
soual advancement and partisan ends he
will command the support of honest men
and good citizens throughout the State.
No better nor more popular man than Gov
ernor Geary could have been nominated, nor
one more earnestly devoted to the best io-
terests Of the whole State. We would not
pretend that Governor Geary is iaultless or
infalible, but we do assert without fear of
contradiction that Pennsylvania has rarely
been blessed with a Governor, who has
made fewer mistakes or. exercised more
careful guardianship over her interests.
Henry W. Williams of Pittsburg was uuan-
imously nominated for Judge of the Su.
preme Court His well known reputation
as a successful lawyer and an able iurist
gained him the Republican nomination two
years ago, when coffee pot Wallace's frauds
defeated him and placed the partisan Shars-
wood on the Supreme Bench. He was
since appointed to the Supreme bench by
Governor Geary to fll the unezpired term
of Judge Strong His fitness for the posi-
ton has been well attested by the ability
with which he has discharged the duties of
his Office. The people viii show their ap-
probation Of him by triumphautly eleeting
him next fall and Iebukiug the fraud that
defeated him two years ago. The ticket is !
undoubtedly the strone % that could posi-
bly, have beea made and insures US a splen-
did victory in October.

The War of the Printers

The professor Of the Fart preservative of

yea IN series of protective associations,
know as Unions These societies reou-
lated the compensation of the printers, and
one OF Its most rigid rules vas that none but
members OF Unions shall work together in
the same Offices, Consequently, all print
ing establishments were forced to employ
either all Union" compositors or RELY ex.
cluslyely upon outsiders. The exoterie
typos were designated by the esoteric
Unions as rats. though 10 what respects
they resemble the shrewd and sharp-toothed
rodents Is wrapped in mystery. The Gov
ernment Printing Department at Washing
ton has always employed Union men, until
Alr. Superintendent Clapp put National
composing stick into the dusky hands Of one
l.. IL. Douglass, a colored man. and not n
member OF any Union. The SuperiDteD.
dent was requested to remove the eolored
rat, but refused. Then the National
Typographical Union met and condemned
hun, next the printers EMPLOYED In the
Government Office assembled and passed
resolutions condemning the National Tvno-
graphical Union, and indorsine Mr.. Clam
and further they demanded in the name of
right, the admission into their Union of an
worthy printers irrespective or races, color
or sex: This Is breaking down barriers Of
exclusion with vengence. The adherents
OF Mr Clapp are certainly bold and pro
gressive men, and have placed themselves
IN position where they must either achieve
a crowning victory or sustain crushing de-
feat. The printers war has assumed an in
teFesting phase, and the now mooted cues
ton OF distinctions Of sex and race ia the
arena OF labor will be effected BY the result
Of the pending typographical contest.

OF the nominations, the Philadelphia
North 4me5qcan says: General Geary is a
veteran soldier of two of the most glorious
wars Of the Republic In both cases he
went in to seek no holiday service. He
served fully and ably, and in the last and
greatest war he only returned to the bosom
Of his native Commonwealth when the great
army of Sherman was disbanded, after its
ever memorable campaign through Georgia
and the CaroHnas
Such hero is fit target for the sneers of
the party that went into the Presidential
campaign OF 1864 with platform pronounc-
ing the war failure. The people endorsed
him IN 1866 when he was elected their
Governor, and We cannot believe that they
will now reverse that verdict in 1859. after
he has honorably fulfilled the responsible
duties Of his high office, but we will re-elect
him By great majority.
Judge Williams is no new or untried man.
As a Judge Of the Court of Allegbeuv
county, his record is one in the highest de-
gree honorable to himself His character
stands envlably high with the bench and
bar Of the State, and his thoroughly judicial
cast Of mind BELTS him for the Office to
which he has been nominated 1t is the
same he now fills by appointment of the
Governor, made upon the resignation Of
Judge Strong aud we have heard no OBJ
lection to his course and conduct on that
bench. As regards the importance Of the
Office, we need only remind our readers that.
OF the Judges now on the bench Of the Su-
preme Court Messrs. Sharswood and
Thompson are Democrats in a strict partisan
sense, and that if another Democrat be now
elected to fill Strong's vacancy, that party
will again have entire control of the highest
Court IN the Commonwealth, three being
