A Disntfied Contest.

The Philadelphia Times is free to
confess that the contest for the Re-
publican nomination for Governor
has been W to this time a contest
between men in which the candid
ates have kept level heads and given
all disputants for place "memorable
example of manhood in the inevitable
conflict of ambition" This from
the Times will be hard to eat by the
numerous organs that have been
croaking from time to time Of the
bitterness of feeling and the chances
for a fight within the Republican
party in the event of the success of
this or that distinguished aspirant
for the nomination. The fight, as
the Times says, has teen one which
from the start has found the difs
ferent candidates working honofably
with their friends for the nomination
and nothing has been said or done
that will prevent the unsuccessful
Of those who now seek the nomina'
tion turning in and assisting in the
election of the successful one by the
old time Republican majority against
any candidate the Democrats can
nominate.

The Closing Canvass.

During last week twenty-seven
delegates were elected to the Re.
publican State Convention, being
sixteen in Allegheny, two each in
Beaver, Lebanon and Huntingdon,
four in Dauphin and one in Perry.
In Allegheny there was. no contest,
the delegation being given to Noon
tooth, with underneath layers tor all
the other leading candidates if
Moontooth should be taken out of
the field after ballot or two.
The thirty nine delegates from
Philadelphia have been practically
selected, al though the primaries do
not take places until tomorrow.
There is Il contest in but one dis~
trict, so that the names of thirty
eight of the number are as we'll
known now as they will be after the
conventions This leaves but
twenty-four delegates yet to- be
named, and they will come from the
following countless; ;; Chester, 4;
Forest, L; Fayette,. 8 ;-Jeferson, / !;
Montgomery, Spike, 1; Somerset,
3: Washington, 81, Westmoreland,
4.
1t is possible that the decisive
delegates may be turned up in the
elections yet to come, few as they
are. The nomination is not yet
settled. Each candidate has a free
ield, and one or two have been
recently making up some of the time
lost earlier in the campaign. It is
the first spirited Gubernatorial con-
test the Republicans of Psnnsylva-
mia have had for dezen years, and
it naturally attracts attention.
In these closing contests every
thing calculated to stir up bitter
ness should be avoided. 1t is a con-
test among Republicans, and the
followers of the several candidates
can well afford to initiate the CAM
didates themselves and maintain the
ffiendliest relations with each other.
Sullivan republican. [volume] (Laporte, Pa.) 1883-1896, 1890-06-06

Such a course will make matters
much easier after the nomination is
settled, when ever faithful Republi-
can will want to fall in line Under
the banners of the nominee. No
sincere Republican will tolerate any
thing likely to interfere with that.
The convention will he entirely
to nominate a candidate
who will represent the best interests
of the party and be the choice of
its people. Having done this, the
Republicans voters can be safely
intrusted with the duty of selecting
the ticket in November.

The President has been indulging
in some plain private talk in pleas
ant way ON the pension question to
republican members of Congress.
The present status OF the matter is
what brought the President out
The Senate has passed the depend
ent pension bill substantially as it
was when vetoed by Mr.. Cleveland.
The House passed as a substitute
for this bill the Morrill, service bill
which is both dependent and a
service bill. This substitute the
Senate has refused to recede from
its position and the whole matter
has been referred to q conference
committee. The President has de-
termined that this failure to agree
on the part of the House and Senate
shall not prevent some pension legis-
lation at the present session If he
can help it, and he has been urging
the necessity of such legislation up
on members of his party. He has
not committed himself in favor OF
either bill, but it is evident that he
thinks one or the other of them
should become law without any
unnecessary delay.

The foreman of the Grand Jury called
upon Mayor Pond yesterday and insisted
upon immediate action to check the spread
of diphtheria. The Mayor at once had an
interview with SUPERINTENDENT of Streets
Ashworth, Health Officer DR.. Keeney and
Secretary John Hoesch and most emphat-
cally urged the necessity for flushing the
sewers.
DIR. Keeney was anxious to carry out the
Mayors wishes, but Mr.. Ashworth showed
Impotence and declared his disbelief in the
cause of the infectious disease being at
tributed to the condition of the sewers. MIR.
Hoesch disagreed with Mr.. Ashworth.
DIR. keeney considered the cause for alarm
over the spread of dipbtheria not ground
less, the fact being proved by the number OF
cases reported daily. He said there mad been
ninety-iive cases in October, twenty of which
had been fatal.
Mayor Pond then set aside further dis
cussion by ordering the flushing OF the
sewers at once, especially in the Mission.
Superintendent Ashworth arranged to COM
mence flushing in the Mission tomorrow
and will utilize all his laborers, if necessary,
in carrying out the instructions of the Mayor
and the Board of Health.
