dov of election comes around, that the can
didates selected may receive all the aid our
journal can give them in assisting TO roll
up the large majority to which men of such
standard qualifications are so emlnently
entitled.-J0hRStOrn Tribune.
We believe that the action of the Con
vention will give great satisfaction to the
Republicans of the State. All will agree
that a stronger ticket could not have been
chosen, nor one which could better unite
all sections and interests. There will be
no faltering in its support when the time
comes for action. Such a ticket, backed
by declaration OF principles which mus.
command the hearty assent of all patriotic
people, must succeed. The Republican
party in Pennsylvania takes the field Tor
the Fall campaign, with harmony III It's
ranks, with the confidence of the people,
and with victory already sure. -LancoSter

Elsewhere in this paper will be found a
full report of the proceedings of the Repuo-
lican State Convention, held at Harrisburg
Yesterday Except as matter OF tormallty
il is hardly necessary for us 10 say that the
nominations made, and the platform OF
principles adopted, receive our hearty ap-
/ ploval and support. The duty which the
Convention was called upon to perform
was of an important character, and 1t has
bean well and satisfactorily discharged. Ii
was but natural that there should be some
| differences Of opiui0n-such state oI
things is always a healthy sign, rather than

deliberately recorded after the delegates
had consulted together with an anxious
desire. as we have reason to believe was

Republicans OF the State at large. The
men who have been selected as our stand.

and every way worthy Of public confidence,

The ticket, in its entirety, is of more than
Average merit, and as such we commend il
to our readers, and to Republicans in the
Safe. 1t is practically impossible for the
/ democracy to put up, all respects, a sup.
e,ior ticket, and we greatly doubt if their
candidates equal, in all the elements OF
worth and fitness for public trusts, those
offered by the Republican party. We have
urged for years, that superior nominations

the Importance of prompt and vigorous
support Of the ticket. as well as Of the party
