saved surplus and him who works for livelihood determine, each for himself, if he craves to be paid in American dollars, disgraced and de- preciated 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 that it stands for, pawned to a foreign and domestic joint syndicate to raise temporary loans for the pur- pose of postponing the financial dis honor and answer whether they want the shame and humiliation repeated.
 Nominate him whom I now name and this country will have a president whose mental endowments, broad minded statesmanship, ripe experience, marvellous sagacity, unassuming mod esty, knightly courage and true Amer icanism are unexcelled. Nominate, him and he will elect himself.
 l name to you the soldier and the statesman, Pennsylvania's choice, Stanley Matthew Quay.

 The following were placed in nomi-- nation for the vice presidency: Evans, of Tennessee; Lippett, of Rhode Island; Hobart, of New Jersey, and Buckley, of Connecticut, and J. A. Walker, of Vir--

 In nominating Hobart, Judge J. F. Post said:
 President and gentlemen of the con- vention: I rise to present to this con-
 vention the claims of New Jersey to l the ce-presidency. We come because we feel that we can, for the first time
 in our history, bring to you promise
 that our electoral vote will be cast for
 our nominees. If you comply with our
 request this promise will surely be re- deemed. For forty years, through the
 blackness of darkness of an univer-

We have car ried the state in the elections of 1893, '94 and '95. We hope and believe we
 can keep the state in the Republican column for all time.
 We should have carried our state at every election for the past ten years if the count had been an honest one. We succeeded in throttling the ballot box suffer and imprisoning the cor 2 rupt election officers, only to have the l whole raft of them pardoned in a day, to work again their nefarious practice 9 upon an honest people.
