Foraker Thinks 1t Tough Job.
Ex-Governor Foraker-Harrison is nom-
u,
kicking on the nominee. We must turn in
now and try to elect him. am afraid it will
be tough job.
Congressman H. H. Bingham, of Phila-
6elphia-It will take plenty of hard, hard
work TO elect Harrison, and he shook his
hend sadly and obviously.
Senator Flinn-We must bow to the
will OF the majority, just as 1 would have
expected their side to do if we had been
winners. l preferred anot her candidate,
bur we must do the best we can. i suppose
Harrison can be elected.

been lighting for Harrison for some time.
DO l think ne Will be elected? Now, my
bov, do YOU suppose l would vote for a man
/ thought would be defeated?

Harrison is the weakest of all THE candi-
dates l doubt whether he can be elected.
The parties are so close these DAYS that l am
afraid d renominated President cannot con-
ciliate the people lie has disappointed. 1t
is an unTise nomination

This nomination is suicidal. 1t will wreck
the party as sure as fate in November
The Democratic States have dictated the
nominee; nov, then, let us see if they can
elect him, also.
General Reeder, State Chairman for Penn

but 1 am satisfied
Ex-CollecJor ID. Martin-Oh, the nomina-
tion is all right l wanted Mckinley, and
then he tried to smile, but the ripple died
near his mouth and did not cover fourth
OF his lace. Like Quay, Dave Martin is
disgusted
Chairman Hart, of the West Virginia
dcleeaticn-We only needed 500 votes TO
carry our State last year, and with Harrison
! am confident that we will put West Vir-
ginia in the Republican column for the
first time.
Senator Sawyer, of Wisconsin-Indeed,
l am delighted. The nomination is first
rate. The best possible. We will be VIC
rorious.
Chauncey VI. Depew-RarrIson will GER
tainly carry New York. If L thought for
one moment that he would not, l never
would have voted for him. He is strong
with the business men and the Union
League Club will back him.
Mr.. Depew, it is stated, will get Blaine's
place in the Cabinet, and of course if Har-
rIson is successful he will continue as Secre-
tarv OF State.
Uncle Dick Thompson, who nominated
Harrison - feel very contented.

State.
