the states in the Union, the largest
majority from the Keystone state.
There have ben no faltcring foot
steps in Pennsylvania when the tents
of Republicanism have been at stake.
Our party's principles have always
been held as sacred as Independence
Hall or the memory of her dead sol
dierS. Having within her borders
more American citizens relatively,
who own the homes in which they
live; whose principle daily avoca-
cation is to subdue and develop her
great stOrehouses of native wealth
whose wageearners, skilled and I'M
skilled, receive, one year with another
the highest average American wage
rate-the Republicans of Pennsylva-
mia, by their chosen representatives,
come to this convention and, with you
demand, and their every interests
demand. system of national curren-
cy equal to the best in the world.
They demand as well that the gov
eminent they love and for whose flag
they have fought, and still stand
ready to defend, shall pay its debts
in money and not in promises. They
insist that dollar is not created by
the fiat of the government, but must
have 100 cents of intrinsic or eX-
changeable value, measured by the
worlds standard, and that any de-
basement of the standard would be
fatal to business secudity and nation
nj honor.
They believe in the old fashioned

and when the income is unequal to
increasing their debt. They believe
the necessary outgo; they insist upon
increasing their debt. They believe
increasing their revenue rather than
that the primary object of govern
ment is to defend and promote the in
terests of the people who have or
dained that government for the adj
vancement of their common welfare.
They hold that the revenue policy
go hand in hand, and they stand as
the sturdy and unwavering champions
of that American system of fair and
even-handed protection which, injur-
ing none and helping all, has made
this nation great and prosperous.
Pennsylvania comes to this con-
vention and with great unanimity
asks you to. name a standard bearer
who will represent not only the prin-
ciples and conditions, but the bright
est hopes and aspirations of
who has ever been loyal
supporter of its every gteat move
from the day of its birth and baptism
on Pennsylvania soil, to the present
time; a man whose every note and ut
terance has been upon the side of
sound money, fair protection and a
strong and patriotic Americanism.
Those whom l represent and who
point to q statesman who has been in
the forefront of every battle of his
party; who has been it's champion, its
wise councillor, it's organizer and the
successful leader Of its forlorn hopes.
He was with those patriots who
rocked the cradle of Republicanism;
he was among the first to comprehend
the magnitude of the armed debate
of 81 and to give himself to the
Union cause. In 1873 he stemmed the
tide of currency imitation and won a
victory which, while less ostentatious
was equal in importance to his sue
cessful rescue of the country from
free trade and Grover Cleveland in
'SS.
The American citizen who believes
that all laws and al policies SHOULD
be for Americas best interests; the
American soldier who admires yaior
as much as he loves the flag of his
reunited country; the American wage
Garner who loves his home and family
and who will never consent to sink
himself to the wage level of the for
eign pauper; the American manufac.
turer emerging from the fortunes OF a
free trade panic and, anxious to re-
light the fires of industry where dark
ness and silence still hold sway; they
who loudly proclaim their recent, but
perfect, conversion to the true gospel
of Republicanism; they who demand
dollars as good as gold as the wage
for good work; who believe in CON-
mercial reciprocity with other nations,
but who say Halt" to any further
foreign encroachment upon any part
of America-these, all these, have
found in him a steadfast friend and
able supporter.
He was the soldiers friend in war,
and he has been their constant cham
pion in peace. The survivors of those
who fought for freedom and won i'm
mortal fame reconize in him COM
rade whose valor has been proven on
hard-fought field and attested In the

by MANY doctors. Women are often
treated specially for sick headaches, dys-
pepsia, melancholy, or what is supposed
to be liver or kidney affection or heart
disease, when in reality the whole trouble
is with the reproductive organs. This
delicate and intricate organism and the
rational treatment for its peculiar all

proudest trophy, ever won by soldier
the decoration awarded him by ;;ie
American congress.
Called to lead forlorn hope in the
great campaign of 'SS, he wrought a
task equal to the six laborers of Hur-
cules. He o rganiZed the patriotism
and Republicanism of the country for
victory. He throttled the Tamnany
tiger in his den, and, forcing an hon
est vote and an honest count in the
stronghold of the most powerful and
corrupt political organization in the
land, rescued the country from the
heresies of Democracy. Having thus
made himself too powerful and too
dangerous to the enemy, the order
went forth to assassinate him, but
the poisoned arrows of SANDER and
vituperation, thrown in bitter and
relentless hatred, fell broken at his
feet. He turned to the people among
whom he lived and whose servant le
was, and his vindication at their
hands was an unanimous reelection
10 the senate ofthe United States.
There, representing imperial Penn
sylvania and her interests, he stood
like a rock, resisting the combined
power of n free trade president and
party. until the deformity known as
the Wilson bill was altered and
amended so as to save at least some
of the business interests of his state
and country from entire and utter
ruin.
protection, American credit and an
American policy. Let the people in
the campaign which this convention
inaugurates determine whether they
are willing to live through another
free trade panic. Let the wage-earncr
and the wage-payer contemplate the
bitter experiences which brought hun
ger to the home of one and financial
ruin to the other. Let the American
farmer compare farm product prices
who has saved a surplus and him who
works for livelihood determine, each
for himself, If he Graves to be paid
in American dollars, disgraced and
deprecated to half their alleged value.
Let him who fought for his country's
flag; let the widow, the orphan and
the loving parent who gave up that
which was as precious as life, behold
that flag and all that it stands for,
pawned to a foreign and domestic
Joint syndicate to raise temporary
loans for the purpose of postponing
the final financial disaster and answer
whether they want the shame and hui
initiation repeated. Let the sovereign
voice be heard in the coming election
declaring that the only government
founded on the rock of freedom,
blessed with every gift of nature and
crowned with unmeasured possibly
ties, shall not be dethroned, degraded,
pauperized by a party policy ut war
with the very genius of our national
existence.

and this country will have a president
whose mental endowments, broad

modesty, knightly courage and true
Americanism are unexcelled. Nom

Tsarkoe SelO is ono of the resi-.
donces of tho crown. 1t is 40 min
utes by rail from St. Petersburg and
is one of the places often visited by
tourists in Russia.
Near the principal entrance CT the
grounds Leading to tho palace stand
two small towers, with carvings OF
Egyptian figures and hieroglyphics
The palace was built in 1.4l and en-
bellished by Catharine II, when all
the ornaments in front-tho vases
statues, capitals and pedestals Of
the columns, etc, were covered
with gold leaf, the gold amounting
to moro than 1000, 600 ducats. None
of the gliding now remains except
on the domo and cupolas of the
church.
The chapel within communicates
through the gallery, which is used
by the imperial family, with tho
apartments of tho latter. Tho room
Is large, fitted up in dark wood and
gilded, tho ceiling being entirely
covered with gold. There are fine
paintings hero. Near the altar hangs
a key of the city of Adrianople.
Ono of the most wonderful rooms
in this palace is the famous amber
room, the walls of which are panel
ed with this costly material cut in
different designs. In several places
are groups of figures framed with
largo pieces OF the same substance.
The arms of Frederick the Great
frequently appear, nodded with the
imperial cipher, the amber having
been presented to him by Catharine.
The lapis laZuli is another re-
markable room, so called from the
demonstrations of that stone with
which it is ornamentcd. Tho walls
are entirely lined with pictures cut
SO as to fit into each other without
frames, and tho floor is of ebony, in
laid with large flowers of mother of
pearl.
In Catharino's bedchamber tho
pillars are of purple glass, and the
walls arc adorned with porcelain.
The walls of the banquet room are
lavishly gilded.
Tho Chinese room is remarkable
for the beauty of the articles it con.
tains, while the two bathrooms are
conspicuous for their fine collections
of china vases. which arc placed in
circular tiers up to tho ceiling in tho
upper end of each room.
The private apartments of AleXan.
der l remain exactly as he left them
when he departed for Taganrog.
They consist of his study. a smaller
room and bedroom beyond, with
camp bedstead in an alcove.
The grounds of the palace are Is
miles in circumference, kept always
in order by COO veteran soldiers. In
one corner of these grounds is tow,

occupied by Alexander II and his
tutor. In another portion are the
baby houses of the grand duchess
