Opinions Of the Press.

Republicans OF Pennsylvania ! the

are earnestly anxious for success this
autumn. The masses are enthused
and jubilant over the result Of the

1T nominated. And now, more than

old party feels MI its pulses throb-
bing with healthy enthusiasm. with =
high purpose, and a goal before it
which is as high as any that ever in
spired party at any period Of peace.
We are marching on to m assured
victory, we sincerely believe.
tFrom the Lancaster Inqulror.)
The Democrats are sorely tried on
account OF the passage OF the anti
third term resolution 10y the Repub-
lican State Convention. II takes o
weapon out Of their hands which they
might have used with some effect
against the party, and they are ut a
loss what TO do.

Now, whatever truth there may
DO in tho declaration that Senator
Cameron was favorable to tho nomi-
nation OF Rawle, it il certainly moth.
ing for which the Senator deserves
reproach. II Rawle's nomination is
the work of a "ring," the best thing
the party can do is to employ this
organization to make all its nomina-
tions. Well take little more "ring
in ours, please.
From tho Crawford Journa,J
The record of Governor Ilartranft
is too well known to need comment
at this time, and while MIR. Rawlo
has never been engaged prominently
in politics there is every reason to
suppose, from his excellent reputa
ton ~ citizen and business man,
that tho finances OF the State will be
administered by an honest and com
petent gentleman.
(From tho Baltimore Amsrican.)
Governor Hartranft was renomi-
mated by acclamation. Henry Rawle,
at present Mayor OF the city OF Erie
was nominated for State Treasurer
lie is a gentleman of large and un'
blemished reputation. The Hon. Ed
ward M'Pheison. clerk OF the House
Of Representatives since 1860, was
chairman of the Committe on Plat
form. and the resolutions reported
are admirable in tone and spirit, and
will be indorsed by tho Republicans
of tho whole Union.
tFrom tho wiiliam,port Gazette b Buiietlu.)
The platform is plain, straightfor'
ward and manly, and must NEE,
with the hearty endorsement OF the
people. The contest for the Stat,
Treasurersbip developed considera
ble strength for Hon. B. Is. Strang
and while his nomination would have
been gratifying to his many friends
in this section, thoy cheerfully &C
quiesce in the will Of tho majority
and will labor with all the energy
they can command to aid in rolling
up heavy majority for the ticket.
! (From the dreenville Advance.)
Mr.. Rawle is 80 we'll and favorably
known to tho people OF this part o
the State as not to require any
elaborate notice at our hands. II i
enough to say that he is an eminent
ly successful business man, and ",
still must hold TO the position tha
the qualities which are necessary Il
secure success in private life are alst
necessary to secure success in publ,
life. Especially are correct habits o
business necessary to the proper dis
charge Of tho duties OF the ofic'
which Mr.. Rawlo will undoubtedl,
be called TO fill. Personally, he
a gentlemanly, genial man, and wha
is more and better, no il not school
ed in tho tricks Of the political )tradt
no will be q public officer fresh fror
the people, and therefore understand
ing the wants Of the people. Th
party has started Alright again by re
turning to the source Of oil power
the people, and its future cours,
therefore, cannot be other than
|, march Of victory.
