The cordial and unwavering support
which we have given bim in the past is
convincing evidence of our confidence in
him as citizen, soldier and Republican,
and We respectfully ask the approaching
state convention to place him on the
state ticket for congressman at-large in
the coming campaign
For Congress Caldwell led Koonce near

Merritt, of Reading, for Congressman at

the convention. Lev McQuistion and the
other Guffey delegates of the committee on

count of what they deemed an Unfair de-
cision, and the committee finished its
work without them.

Not a Fit Man to Associate With.


Press Dispatch.
There will be no reconc ncilistion between
Senator Quay and President Harrison, and
as result Mr.. Harrison may eventually
not be candidate for re- nomination. A few
days ago Congressman Bingham, ONeil
and Rey burn, accompanied by Postmaster
General wauamaker, called hpon the
President to urge him to forget the past
and receive Quay. This was the idea
that the Pennsylvania Republican Con-
vention, to be held on tbs 18th, would de-
clare for Harrison and assure him Of the 64
delegates of the State. The surprise OF
the gentlemen was great when the PresI
dent turned to Mr. Wanamaker and said
"The less you have to do with Mr.. Quay
the better it will be for you. He is not
fit man to associate with"
Following this up the President said
that he was not SO certain about accepting
a denomination unless he was assured
that the party was harmonious, and that
it would stand together on all questions.
He said he saw here and there evidences
of dissatisfaction, and that he preferred to
stand aside rather than place himself in
the power of Mr.. Quay and some other
men who had attempted to dictate the
terms for re- nomination
The President said to the Cong ressmen
that he would not place the patronage OF
Pennsylvania in Quay's hands because the
men Quay had recommended to him we've
no better than himself, and were not fit
to hold positions. The President said that
if it depended upon Quay that he should
get the Pennsylvania delegation. that he
would not get it. Mr.. wansmaker talked
in his most persuasive manner, but it was
of no avail. And the President warned
he Postmaster General, as good Presby-
terisn brother, to keep away from Quay.
When this was told the Senator he was
naturally angered. He i'm nediately began
to discuss with his fellow Senators the
availability OF Blaine as Presidential can
didate, and the boom in the interest of
the Secretary last week is due TO Quay's
work
