ministration. This IL natural. A few
weeks ago Mr.. Quay led his personal
henchmen In the house to the aid Of the
Democrats for the defeat Of the Republi-
can majority. and for this service the
Democrats owe him much. But besides
this cause for gratitude the Democratic
editors no doubt have a lively expectation
OF benefits to come from Mr.. Quay's ef-
forts. Looking back, they see that his
management has recently given Republi-
can Pennsylvania two Democratic admin
istrations and for them the lamp of ex-
perience is bright enough to guide them In
the path where Mr.. Quay leads the way.
The Democratic editors show political
wisdom In working for Mr.. Quay: but
what IL to be thought Of those silly Repub-
licans who follow their lead and echo
their arguments?"
No Moro Cameron.
Wilkes-Bar Record: "If Senator Quay
has any intention of forcing ]. Donald
Cameron upon the people Of this state as
presidential candidate. he had better
abandon 1t at once. The people OF Penn
sylvania do not want Cameron. They
have had too much of him already. AS
United States senator he has been a hu-
initiating failure. He does not inherit
even a modicum OF his fathers good sense.
let alone his political genius. He has not
a single qualification that would recon-
mend him for any federal office, and Occu-
pies his present position simply because
he Is the son of his father. Unload Cam
eron. Mr.. Quay. II you are wise."
Quay Himself Is RespOnsiblc.
Hyde Park Courier-Progress: ut is Mr..
Quay who IL responsible for this unneces-
sary and unwarrared fight. He was the
aggressor. He Is keeping up the contest,
not In the interest of the party, but for his
undisputed, absolute control of 1t. The
governor. Mr.. Martin and Mr.. Magee have
been forced into a defense by Senator
Quay's purpose and determination to de-
stroy them politically"

How tho Newspapers Stand.
Editor John Mccarthy Of the Hazleton
Sentinel has made u canvass of the el5
news publications in the state and claims
that ~ per cent. of the Democratic papers
are with Quay, 1870 Republican newspapers
ara enlisted In the governors cause,

approved by only forty nearly all Of
which are weekly publications.
Has Made Serious Blundcr.
Norristown Herald: Much is said in
the Quay Republican papers about the
men who have been made by Quay
They should also tell their readers some-
thing about the men who have made Quay.
Thousands of the latter class are among
those who think the Beaver statesman has
made serious blunder, and are now
working for the success Of the Hastings
administration

Where All Democrats Stand.
Archibald Citizen, DEM: 1--WE stand by
Quay. Without sacrificing one jot of our
independence or committing ourselves 10
the ticket which the convention may nom-
mate we unalterably and unreservedly
pledge our fealty on this occasion to the
interest Of Matthew Stanley Quay"
Entirely Too Rosy.
Carbondale Herald: ut is becoming ev-
cry day more manifest that the claims
made by Quay's friends are entirely too
rosy. Indications point to the success of
the Hastings wing Of the party by safe
majority"
Quay Is Badly Beaten.
Wilkes-Barre Records: "The truth is
Senator Quay is badly beaten, and unless
the Hastings people have pity on him,
he will be ruthlessly turned down in the
state convention
