To the Editor Of EVENING JOURNAL.
The words uttered by Hon. George
Gray in the Kent county court room in a
speech on Monday evening last, in which
he remarked that any Democrat who did
not support the ring caucus ticket was a
coward and traitor, and likened
him to "the babe that would stab
its mother to the heart" was heard
with establishment and amazement by
many Democrats who have heretofore
held quite a different opinion of him than
they now entertain. Among his auditors
were men who were the pillars of Democ-
racy before the Hon. Senator was babe
enough to stab his mother and who are
50 endeared to the tenets of their faith
a. they have resolved to rebuke
this youthful Democracy who are
only Democrats in name and
are devoid of principle. II we had known
when the gentleman was so anxious TO
become I. 5. Senator that he entertained
such opinions of those who sustained
so Loyalty his candidacy for this position,
we have no doubt O the babe Senator
would have been stabb and would have
obviated the necessity of stabbing the
mother now. But there is one consoling
thought even now He has not life
tenure, and the time will roll around
when we shall be able to evince our graft
tude for his complimentary remarks
about us. Mr.. Gray proves himself by
that speech a mere factionist and not a

The Republican C,ubs.

The convention Of Republican clubs
has come and gone, and the question is
pertinent, what did they do? From the
proceedings of the convention, which we
brisfy chronicle, it is not apparent that
they did anything. Such disorganiza.
tion, delay and beating of the air ha.
never before been witnessed in Lancas-
Ter. The difficulty seems to have been
that nobody knew exactly what the
whole gathering was about. There was
. large amount of time wasted in getting
70 work, and then when the convention
Was organized, there was the greatest
haste made to adjourn. There seemed
70 be q fear among the older heads that
the young men in the convention would
take hold of the Republican platform
and run away with 1t. The passage-at.
arms between Senator Goblin and Mr..
Ghkyson showed this and had it not been
1cr the paci6catory amendments of Chris.
Aagee, the convention would still be in q
wrangle over question that would have
Deen settled In five minutes In a Demo.
cratic convention. The older politicians
present found it hard to gag the young
men present, and the former must have
been greatly relieved when the motion to
adjourn was put hurriedly through. 1t
was nota convention that did credit To
the Republican party of Pennsylvania.

estimated that banana orchards exceed

twenty times and improved varieties OF
the Italian chestnut could furnish an
available substitute for the breadstuffs

olives, bananas, chestnuts, sugar, pears,
naples, and the sugar pine Of the Pacific

abundance, the three chief elements OF
