PENNSYLVANIA POLITICS.
THE DEMOCRATS NOMINATE,
TWO STATE OFFICERS.

A Harmonious Convention, Which Be.
speaks Sure Victory-The Removal of
All Internal Revenue Taxation and
the Protection of Public Lands Advo-
Gated in the Platform.
HARRISBURG, August There is ap-
parently more interest taken in the DEM
ocratic Convention than at the one held
by the Republicans last month. There is
large attendance, due to the fact that
the number of delegates is much larger
than in previous conventions. The con-
vention assembled at 1915 o'clock this
morning, and was called to order by
Chairman Hensel in few
remarks. The list of delegates
was called, and, for the first time in MANY
years, no contested seats were announced
Robert K. Wright, of Lehigh county, was
chosen temporary chairman bv acclama-
tion, together with the necessary officers
for the transaction of the preliminary
business, After being conducted to the
chair and returning his thanks for the
honor conferred, Mr.. Wright stated that
this was the first time in a quarter of a
century that a Democratic Convention
had met when all the State officers, with
but single exception, We're filled by
Democrats. He further said that all the
promises of reform made previously by
the party had been faithfully carried out.
He paid high tribute to the Governor,
alluding to him as a superb executive.
The speech was received with continued
applause. A resolution that the COM
mittees on credentials permanent organi-
zatiOn and resolutions, consist of one
delegate from each Congressional district,
to be named by the delegates, was adopted,
and the convention adjourned until two
O'Clock. the convention was very har-
mOniouS.
The platform favors the entire abolition
of the present system of internal taxa
tiOn and the reservation of the public
lands for actual settlers. The remainder
Of the platform, which is quite long, deals
entirely with State matters.
The convention nominated candidates
as follows:
For State Auditor Robert Taggart, of
Warren county.
For Treasurer-Joseph Powell, of Brad
ford.
