AfNaANAN9
total popular vote of nearly $4,000 at Re-
publican primaries in nine counties, Senator |
Quay has been indorsed in representative
Republican conventions of eleven other
counties
The Clarion county convention declared !
that
1t is now plain that the Democratic party, as
an organization and as individuals, are more de-
termined and desperate than ever to assail and
overthrow Republicans and Republican prin-
ciples and carry the coming election by fair or
foul measures, as clearly evidenced by Demo
cratic methods in New York and elsewhere and
their malicious onslaught on the Hon. NJ s.
Quay in Pennsylvania, and numerous other
examples throughout the country, and
The Democratic leaders and press are using
certain disgruntled Republicans and Democrat 3
ic sympathizers, under the guise Of reformers,
TO promote and further their interests.
They therefore resolved
That the cry of "bossism' as raised by Demo
Gratis and their sympathizers, in order TO de-
moralze our party and cause dissension and
disloyalty in our ranks, should be disregarded,
and will have no effect on true Republicans.
We hereby indorse and support those who
have rendered efficient service to our party in
former contests, notably among these the Hon
M. S. Quay, our present United States senator,
leader worthy Of continued confidence and
, distinguished honor among Republicans.
That in Hon. NJ S. Quay we recognize an
I able statesman, an imperial leader and loyal
Republican, that we indorse his course in the
United States senate, and declare him to be
our unqualified choice for reelection to that
honorable body
The Clearield county Republicans, with
only one vote in opposition, spoke as follows:
We denounce the virulent assaults Of the
Democratic and Mugwump press upon our
| junior United States senator, the Hon NJ. S.
| Quay, whose matchless political leadership, SUI
perb organization and loyalty to party enabled
us to win the great battle Of 1888 and we be-
lieve that he merits and should receive the graf
itude and admiration of every loyal Republican
throughout the land
The following is the resolution of the Re
! publican convention of Warren county,
where Mr.. Dalzell made virulent speech
few days before the primaries:
That we hereby express our confidence in the
great political general of this commonwealth
and Of the nation, the man to whom the Repub-
licans Of this country owe SO much for the sue
cess of their party and its principles, the man
whom the Democrats have so shamefully ira
duced, the Hon. Matthew Stanley Quay.
The Monroe county Republicans expressed
their approval as follows:
We express hearty approval Of our honor
able senator, Matthew Stanley Quay as rep
resentative Republican well fitted TO command
wherever the necessities Of politics may lead.
The Republicans Of Luzerne, with only
one dissenting vote, declared:
That the commanding abilities of Senator
Matthew Stanley Quay in organizing and con-
summating victory for the party in state and
nation have acquired for him an indeshuctible
regard from the Republicans Of this district.
In the following language the Repubh-
cans of Schuykill county indorsed the junior
senator:
We recognize in the history of the national
campaign Of 1888, recently published, the value
of the natchless services rendered to the party
by the Hon. NJ $. Quay, who as chairman of
the J publican national committee thwarted
the rupt Democratic organization Of the city
Of York in its attempt to secure the presi-
den, by election frauds. We also indorse the
seuuoorial career Of Senator Quay and recog-
Dize and appreciate the value Of his services to
the policy of protection 70 American industry,
and his unswerving fidelity to the Republican
party and its principles; and we most emphatic
ally condemn the vituperative malevolent and
mendacious attacks made upon his personal
and political character assaults not only
upon the man, but upon the party and princi-
pies Of which he is distinguished representa-
tive.
The following resolution was adopted by
the county convention of Lycoming:
That we note with satisfaction the disposition
on the part of the Republicans of Pennsylvania
to give full credit iu this presidential year to
the matchless leadership of the Hon. Matthew
Stanley Quay in his conduct of the campaign
of 1888, and it is with pleasure that we add our
testimonial to theirs. We congratulate Senator
Quay upon the universal manifestations OF
approval which have been recently accorded
him in all sections of the state.
The Somerset county convention resolved
as follows:
The choice of the Republicans of this county
% for United States senator at the next election
is Hon, Matthew S, Quay, and the candidates
this day nominated for the legislature, if elect
ed, are requested tovote for him. Our generous
support, we are confident, will be justified by
Senator Quay by such a representation of the
great interests Of Pennsylvania in the highest
council of the nation as will reflect credit upon
himself and honor upon the state.
Ready for Popular Vote.
The Repu Olican county committee oi
Juniata, at the meeting which provided fol
popular vote on June upon the United
States senatorship, passed resolutions which
declared;
The desperate efforts Of the unscrupulous
Democratic leaders in New York in 1883 to de
feat General Harrison by base frauds and cor
ruption were triumphantly thwarted by tho
matchless skill and brilliant leadership Of NJ S
Quay, we therefore desire TO express our ad
miration and approval Of his labor for the sue
. cess Of the party, because not only was the
70 election Of General Harrison thereby secured
but Republican congress was also elected
whereby it was made possible 10 place on oui
statute books the incompatible Mckinley bill
. and other needed legislation; and we also not
with satisfaction the popular approval of hi
public record which is evidenced whenever thu
question has been submitted to a direct vote o
his party.
