.QUAY'S MAN FRIDAY
INDEPENDENT REPUBLICANS IN REVOLT
AGAINST HIM.
The Decent Sentiment Of the State Outraged by the
Nomination Of Deamater-HS Record
as a Iobber and Trick
star.

PHILADELPHIA. June 30.-The Oppo-
Sition to Quay'S man, Delamater, grows
with each days distance from the die
tated" convention. From the more res
spectacle Republicans in every part OF
the State comes the open denunciation
of the Boss and his work. The farm
crs. the miners. the independent oil
producers and the Knights of Labor are
all bitterly disappointed over the nomi-
nation OF the Meadvillc candidate, and
omen in their hostility. And these are
the people who. when once aroused,
will not respond to the crack of Mr..
| Quay'S Administration lash
The Hon. Hugh McGarycy, OF Halle
ton, always a Republican since his man
hood and man of standing and ability,
is one Of those who has come out against
Delamatcr. Mr.. McGarvcy is Chairman
of the Knights OF Labor Legislative Com
mttcc. which has, for the past four
years, been trying to get some just and
much-nccdcd legislation through the
Legislature. In an interview last night
he told why he and other conscientious
friends of the laboriug man could not
support the monopoly candidate.
"Of all the important labor measures
which came before the Senate he
said. Mr.. Delamatcr voted only for the
Emplovers' Liability bill. He first
voted against it, and then changed his
vote after he saw that it had passed.
I Whether this was for the purpose OF
/ having il rcconsidcrcd, or because he
was "a prospective candidate for Cover
nor, could not tell. but he was the
only Senator who changed his vote. He
voted against the Company Store bill
and against the Dockagc bill, both i'm
portant measures to corporation en-
ploycS. lie failed to vote for the Fac
tory Inspection bill, which was equiv
alcnt to voting for it, For these acts
he should lose the vote of every work
ngman. and the only vote labor re-
ccivcd from Mr. WatrcS was that on
the Employers Liability bill. He de
serves no support from the miners and
workingmcn who suffer because Of the
store system. and ne has what he has
carncd-thcir serious opposition.
CuOKEp ~ COMMITTEE.
Both Dclamatcr and WatreS were
members Of the Senate Judiciary Com
mittce which choked the Scmi-Monthly
Paw bill. after the House had passed il.
and the Farrell Store bill. and would
have done the same with the Dockagc
bill. if it hadn't been for the Shrewd
watchfulneSS Of Senator Hines. Neither
man should get vote from any miner
or laboring man in the state.
President John Costello. of the Miners
Union. also Republican. is still more
bitter and will take the stump against
Drlnnatrr Costello, is an earnest, ag-
prcs,iyc. scf-madc man. with great
ability as an organizer. and a iOrciOle
sneaker. His honesty is unqueStioned,
and his hold upon the miners Is remark
able. senator Hines. another leader oi
the organization, will also stump the
mining regions against Delamater
Secretary Watchorn, Of the Miners
Federation of America, said, in an IN
terview Yesterday: I'VE have 5000 min
erS in PENNSYLVANIA, and they will vote
rs Il man against Delamater ana NatreS
if the Democrats nominate PattlSon.
With Wallace the vote will be divided,
hut marty lines will be obliterated if
Pattison is nominated. He is regarded
rs a personal friend by every miner in
Tho State. When he became Governor |
tbe miners were absolutely without
protection. They had to timber the
mines at their own cost; they had to
draw out the water; they had no Nentll- |
alton regulations. Governor PattlSon, |
in the face Of great opposition, and IN
defiance Of powerful influence, recon-
mendcd and worked for and signed laws
giving miners all the protection they |
