Pennsylvania Democratic :, a,e CUR2mit
tse.
New YORK, Jan. l9.-In regard to the
meeting Of the Pennsylvania Democratic
stste committee yesterday, the Times
ssys: The choice tf chairman CT state
committee is not ordinarily matter CT
national interest, but the election OF
e. ?. Kisrer by the Pennsylvania
Democratic state committee yesterday at
Harrisburg, is not oply Of interest, but
OF importance to the whole country. 1t
is severe check to Samuel J. Randall,
VINO sought TO prevent il and to retain
Mi. Sanders in office in order TO use the
committee so far rs possible to defeat the
tariff reform policy OF the President, and
further to prevent If practicable the re-
nomination of Nj. Cleveland. Il has
been reported and is probably true
that N the contest with Mr..
Randall ever the Craftsmanship and
at the primaries for the election OF
delegates who in theit turn will choose
the delegates 10 the nstioual convention,
the { flee holders under the Federal gov
eminent have taken en- active part. This
was not right and in accordance with the
principles professed by Mr.. Cleveland
and defined in his official utterances, but
it does not lie in Mr.. Randall or hi:
friends to object to it, because they have
hitherto had the aid of equally imprope,
activity on the part OF Federal { act
holders to carry their ends ano
to am0srrass the administration. Apsr
from the bad character of the means EN-
ployed il is matter OF congratulation To-
the whole country that the first serious
attempt made II loDg time to rescue Ia
Democratic party in Pennsylvenia from
the treacherous hands Of the Randall rin:
has been 80 far successful
The other morning papers made 70 ed
itorial reference to the meeting.
