How They Propose to Beat Quay.


TALK AMONG PENNSYLVANIA DEMOCRATS OF
NOMINATING POWDERLY, THE LABOR LEADER.
The democrats of Pennsylvania have not
found a man of their party who is willing to
run against Mr. Quay for state treasurer in the
coming campaign. In view of the overwhelm-
ing majority cast for Blaine last fall the demo-
Gratis generally feel that it would be worse than
forlorn hope to attempt to carry the state.
But some OF the leaders have hit upon plan
which they believe will open chance of sue
cess. 1t depends upon the consent OF one man
ex-MayOr Powderly, of Scranton. He is the
most popular leader OF the labor element in the
state The democratic leaders are endeavoring
to persuade Mr.. Powderly to accept their nomi-
nation, feeling confident that he can command
the labor vote. The laboring men would proba-
bly, hold convention and endorse the candi-
dacy of Powderly. The democratic leaders say
result of the detection of democratic laboring
men. They hold that Mr.. Powdery would not
only bring these voters back to the democracy,
but that he would command thousands of votes
OF republican working men. The democrats
expect to see light vote pOlled in Pennsylva-
mia next fall, and they count upon a much
greater falling off in the republican ranks than
in their own. This, they say, will be produced
by the hostility OF the Cameron men to Quay.
One of the most prominent and active demo-
Gratis OF the Keystone state said to-day that
"Quay had shamefully betrayed Cameron, and
the Senator's friends will knife him." Quay
was formerly a strong friend and supporter Of
the CamerOns, but he turned against them, and
this year has pretty well succeeded in getting
the party organization out of their hands.
