upon the group of men representing each

In many districts there were contests for
the honor. the most notable, perhaps being
that in the ninth district, comprising Lee
Gtgh and Berks counties. The Berks county

Chairman Givcn's Remarks.
Chairman Given said in part: The de-
mocracy of Pennsylvania is opposed TO
tariff laws enacted solely for the protec-
and for the oppression of the great body
of the people, and dcnounCing such laws.
We believe that the necessary expenditures
of The government SHOULD be provided for
by the imposition of either excise or i'm
port taxes
The party which We represent Is OPP
posed to any changes in the existing gold
standard, and this convention, If true TO
those whom ii represents, :nust declare
against the free and unlimited coinage of
silver, and IN behalf of maintaining the
credit of the United States at the high
est point, SO that such credit may be un-
questioned at home and abroad.
For eight years Robert E. Pattison was
the governor of Pennsylvania. They were
years of upright, fearless end satisfac-
tory discharge of executive duties. Years
that reflected. honor upon his state, his
party and himself. Twice did he trium-
phanuy carry the banner of democracy in
this rock-ribbed republican state to vic
| tory. and We present him to the democ-
racy of the nation as a fit and proper can
didate for the presidency of the republic.
With bold and clear enunCiation of true
democratic principles and with Robert F..
Pattison as our candidate,we will present a
united front to our common foe and win
a splendid victory
Scene of Wild Enthusiasm
A scene of wild enthusiasm followed
Mr. Given's reference to Ex-Governor Pat.
tison as Pennsylvania candidate for the
presidential nomination. The roll call OF
454 delegates, of which twenty-six are
contested, consumed much time.
After the announcement of the commit.
tees on resolutions, credentials and perma.

til 2:30 pm.

SurDrise Mt the C,,tto,

The report that the Vermont convention
had instructed today for Mckinley was
received with great deal of surprise at
the Capitol, and the anti Mckinley men
discredited ii. The fact was called to
attention that Vermont had never instruct
ed for any one, not even when the state
presented Senator Edmunds' Lame as a
candidate before the national convention,
as an indication that the present report is
not true.
1t was known, however, that there is a
strong Mckinley sentiment in Vermont,
and That Senator Proctor attended the con-
vention for the express purpose of prevent
ing instructions, and that he was doubtful
OF the result of his efforts in that direction.
