These sound money victories that are
being won in Democratic States don't
seem to stick. There was a great deal of
caokling among the friends of the admin
istration over the great victory that Car
isle had won in Kentucky in keeping
out of the platform a declaration in favor
of free silver, but later developments
show that the subtantial point of victory
were with the silver men since the head
of the ticket is free coinage Democrat
and is making that issue faction of his
canvass in spite Of the protest of the
sound money men. And now the great
victory which Brice won in Ohio for
sound money is being disputed by the
silver Democrats who claim that the plat
form was really a compromise and was as
much in favor of free silver as against it.

THE oUAY-MAGEE FIGH t.

The Quay-Magee fight for the control
of the Republican organization of the
State of Fennylyania eliminates at the
Republican State convention which meets
at Harrisburg today. The dispatches
have given occasional glimpses of the
struggle which, growing more bitter as
it has proceeded, now threatens
to disrupt the convention and perhaps
result in bolt. The precise thing at is
sue is the Craftsmanship of the Republican
State committee, and around that the
fight will center in the State convention.
But the real question is the supremacy
of Quay or of the combination made up
of Dave Martin ofa, Philadelphia, and
Chris Magee of Pittsburg, and having
the sympathy ofsGoy. Hastings and the
State administration. The struggle is
for the control of the machinery of the
marty. 1t began when Martin betrayed

tie is Mr.. Gilkeson, member of the anti
Quay combination. The anti-Quayites
seek to have him reelected, but the
| Quayites are going to try to suppant him
with Senator Quay himself Both sides
| are claiming that they have elected
majority of the delegates, and will con-
troll the convention. The fact seems to
be that there are enough contested seats
to turn the scale, and which side will
results of these contests.
The rolls of Republican conventions
have generally been made up by the
chairman sof the State committee. The
present chairman is candidate for re-
election, and is a member of tho COM
bination that is trying to overthrow Quay
If he makes UP the roll of course the
combination will have a great advantage,
for he can, and undoubtedly will, put on
the roll all the delegates which the com
bination claim were elected in the con-
tested districts, and if this number is
sufficient: as seems probable, to control
the convention, the combination will be
able to organize the convention, appoint
the committee on credentials and ulti-
mately decide all the contested seats in
their favor. Hence Mr. Quay's support
ers have protested against the chairman
of the State committee making up the
roll, pointing out that it would
be grossly unfair and would place
the convention practically in the chair
mans hands, They have asked him,
therefore, to allow the full committee to
make up the roll But the chairman has
paid no attention to this request, and has
gone ahead and made up the roll of the
con vention, placing upon it all the COM
binations contestants. There was talk
among Quay's supporters of applying to
the courts, but this idea has been aban-
doned, and the probability is that Chair
man Gilkeson will make up one roll and
the State committee another. But how
the convention will decide between them
remains to be seen. The only fair way
would seem to be to exclude from par
ticipation in the organization all the
delegates whose seats are contested, but
as that would operate to the disadvantage
of one side or the other it will doubtless
be opposed Indeed the situation is such
as to make Ga bitter wrangle, ands very
| likely bolt, almost inevitable.

The Executive Committee Of the

quest that every Alliance take steps

show signs of death.
The undersigned, secretary Of the
State Alliance, is issuing and mailing
to each local secretary a circular call

Alliance in the state on the 18th day
Of May next.
There Is not an Alliance worker in
the state who does not know that II
someone takes hold and pushes things
in each Alliance something can be
done to revive interest where there is
none; therefor it has been decided to
hold such meetings on the same day
all over the state. The old saying is,
"a word to the wise is sufficient"
Hence let every one Of the thousands
of Alliance workers in the state put
such meetings collectively the largest
gathering Of farmers ever held in the
state. Make it grand rally.
Local Alliance secretaries are es-
pecially requested to see that provis-
ions are made to raise sufficient funds
to put their respective Alliances in
good standing as per circular letter,
and report to the undersigned at his
earliest opportunity.
Let not signle member stay away
