ST. LOUIS, TUESDAY, JUNE IS
THE PLACE AND TIME OF THE RE
PUBLICAN CONVENTION IN 'o6.
Four Ballots Necessary to Make the
Choice-San Francisco Lead at First
No Change In Basis of Representa-
tioD-A Plea For the Women.

Washington, Dec 1o-The republican ma
tional convention i'll be held a st. Louis,
Mo, on the 10th day of June, next.
These were the two material results of
to-days meeting of the republican ma
lional committee.
Thus ends a contest that has been spirit
eddy conducted by the four cities of San
Francisco, Chicago, Pittsburg, and ST.
Louis. New York was q nominal candi-
date for convention honors, but her rep
tcscntatives did not reach the city until
late last night, too late 10 begin an active
compaign for he metropolis. St Louis
victory was due to a variety of causes, the
principal of which was the untring efforts
put forth by her representatives who ar
rived on Sunday last
The astounding gains made by the re-
puhliCans OF Missouri a year ago also ap-
pealed strongly to the sympa hies Of the
national committee. St Louis has been
regarded az a strong competitor from the
start, but experienced observers OF politi-
cal affairs felt that her principal rival
was Chicago The latter city, however,
was never seriously In the race ~"
California delegation made a game, uphill
fight. Ihat lheN succeeded ia polling SO
large vote at the start and holding it
practically intact until the final ballot
furnishes the strongest proof Of the good
work done by her committee i'm the face
Of obstacles with which none of the other
cities had to contend. The distance and
the time consumed in making the trip
was against them and the expenses of the
trip were also a factor, yet for three bal
lots they led all their competitors.
pittsburg, like Chicago. was never n for
midable contestant, and after two ballots
the brave showing she had made at the
beginning gradually disappeared. The
Calfornians bore their defeat philosophc-
ally, but they were obviously much Chag-
Tned at their failure to secure the prize.

The State of Pennsylvania has been
paying exorbitant prices for printing
and Hon. w. o. Smith, who is taking
an interest in the matter to save the
State large sums OF money, says the
Legislatures hands are tied, according
to the following clipped from Mr..
Smiths paper: "The Constitution Of
Pennsylvania needs to be revised. 1t is
in many of it's provisions, a back num-
ber. It interferes with some wholesome
and much needed legislation. We
spent nearly all of last Friday in the
State library with others thoroughly
conversant with the State printing, OBJ
tanning information upon which to draw
up bill to establish a State printing
office. We had canvassed the House on
the subject, and everybody was in favor
OF 1t. After we had collected the data,
and were just on the point of proceed
ing to the work Of evolving the various
sections OF the bill, we accidentally
stumbled onto Article 3, section IL, Of
the Constitution, which declares that
all this work must be given out by con
tract. That settled 1t. The Legisla
ture has no authority In the matter
It's hands are tied. We must continue
to pay q quarter Of q million dollars
annually for work that might otherwise
be done much cheaper, until the Consti
tution IL amended"

Judge Mayer, of Lock Haven, last
week handed down the following opin-
ions concerning constable's mileage and
policemen's fees: Constables could only
receive ten cents mileage direct, or one
way only, when on official errands, and
that one dollar only could be allowed
police officers whether they committed
one or more persons to Jail on the same
commitment. The decisions were hand
ed down on cases regularly stated be-
fore the court to settle disputes relative
to the payment OF fees under the new
law
