THE SENATORSHIP.
Penrose an Able Man.

Philadelphia Press: Boies Penrose was
elected to the lower house at Harrisburg in
1885, when he was only 20 years of age,
and many remember the tall, rather
gaunt figure of the young Philadelphian
who occupied a seat in the extreme rear
row of desks to the right of the speak
er's dais. He was at all times a grace
full and fluent talker, and his rare abil-
ity in this line soon won for him a dis
tinction in that body which will long
be memorable as having contained many
men of brains and ability. One of the
striking changes in recent years in Sena-
tor Penrose's manner has been the almost
entire absence of gesticulation in con-
nection with his rhetorical efforts. When
ne first appeared in the house he used his
arms in emphasis with a long sweeping
motion. When he became emphatic he
would strike the bound bundle of bills on
his desk until ii fairly bounced. But that
has all disappeared, even before he as
sumed the senatorial toga. In speaking
now Senator Penrose takes an easy atti-
tude and about the only gesture in which
he INDUCES is with his right hand which
he uses with index finger pointed toward
the speaker for emphasis, The one charm
about Senator Penrose, as coming from
men who have known and associated
with him for years, is his amiability. His
manner to those whom he meets for the
first time is rather distant and reserved
but closer acquaintance develops his
friendly qualities and once the ice is
broken he is found to be one of the most
companionable of men. 1t was in 1883 that
Penrose advanced from the lower house
to the upper. He brought with him to the
senate chamber the prestige of an able
parliamentarian, fluent speaker, and g
correct logician. He had corrected nj,
early mistake of attempting 10 speak OF
subjects in which he was not vitally in
terested ana the result of it was tha
he, by confning his efforts to matters o.
interest TO his constituents, added to nj!
reputation. From an unbiased stand
point his career in Harrisburg as q legis
lator and a representative of the people
both in senate and house is immeasurabl!
superior to that of a good many who's
names are familiar in the recent histor!
of the state.

Senator Quay in Earnest.

From Walter Wellman's Washington
Letter in the Chicago Times Herald: Sen
ator Quay made another greatest fight
of his life" at Harrisburg, and won it
hands down. Mr. Quay appears to delight
in this sort of thing. He appears never
to be quite happy unless he has on his
hands a great combat with somebody or
other up in the Keystone state. There was
more in the struggle just ended at Harris
burg than most people suppose Some
thing beside the senatorship was at stake.
year ago last summer Mr. Quay had
another greatest fight of his life on
hand, and after he had won it hand
somely and driven his enemies to cover
he did a most dramatic thing. He stood
up in the convention hall and announced
to all the world and to the state of Penn
sylvania in particular that he proposed
to institute reforms in the government of
that state, reforms which would put a
stop to franchise selling, corrupt legisla-
ton, political buying and selling. At first
men smiled. Such talk from Matt Quay
sounded like sarcasm at his own expense.
But the curious part of the whole chap
ter is that the man was in earnest. He
meant 1t then and means it now. He in
tends to use his power to clean out the
nasty stables of Pennsylvania. Matt Quay
is going to set up in business as a genuine
reformer.

Philadelphia Inquirer: Penrose is a
young man. The constitution provides
that no man can become a senator who
shall not have attained to the age of 30
years. Mr.. Penrose is but &c. and yet for
ten years he has been a member either
of the house of representatives or of the
state senate. He took high honors at col
lege, and both his studies and his inclina-
tions have led him into statecraft. He will
go to the United States senate with the
ripe experience gained in active and in
telligent work in the Pennsylvania legis-
lature. He has had hand in nearly all
the great measures of the past ten years.
He was a sturdy advocate of the Bullitt
bill, which forms our city charter, and
made it a special study. Going to the
United States senate, as he does, at such
an early age, and with his natural abili-
ties for craftsmanship, he should become
a most valuable addition to the legislative
branch of the national government.

The Man for the Place.

Allentown Chronicles: We have the best
reason for believing, in all sincerity and
honesty, that the Republicans of Penn
sylvania and the people of the state in
general will have no reason to regret the
election OF Mr.. Penrose. We believe that
subsequent events will demonstrate the
wisdom of his choice. He win enter the
United States senate with an unassailable
title and we are confident that in good
time he will rank among the ablest and
most influential members o. that body.
He represents experience IN legislative
matters, demonstrated ability, fine per-
sonal presence, ready and convincing elo-
quence familiarity with the great ques-
tion of finance and tariff, industry, apti-
tude for the acquisition Of knowledge and
a mental training that will combine to
make him the peer of any member of the
senate. Add to this the energy and
strength of his young manhood and an
ambition to serve his state ana country to
the best of his ability and he will measure
up to the full requirements of the exalted
position TO which the people of his state
through their chosen representatives have

played more strength than on any previous
day of the week. 1t successfully withstood
a further sharp drop in Delaware and

rallied to 112A. Jersey Central and Read

B per cent. respectively, but the former
partly recovered and the latter fully made
up the loss before the end of the session.
The general list improved 4 to rs per
cent, the Grangers Chicago Gas, Louis

ing the afternoon the advance was par
TALLY lost, but near the close a recovery

California has been most fittingly
termed the Italy Of America" All
the delicious balm, the cloudless sky,
and the rich verdure of the great Eu-
ropean peninsula are duplicated in this
sunny land of the Pacific. Here ma
ture basks in the sunshine of her own
beauty; and here she has established
her own sanitarium, where eternal
spring inspires everlasting youth. With
the snow -mantled peaks of the Sierras
upon the one hand, the calm Pacific
with it's soft breezes upon the other
and a veritable paradise of flowers,
fruits, and plants between, man can
find and needs no lovelier land. To
visit such a country is q privilege q
blessing.
The Pennsylvania Railroad company

Portable and pleasant way of crossing
the continent has inaugurated a series
of annual tours to California, running
a through train of Pullman palace
cars from New York to the Pacific
coast, and stopping at the principal
points of interest EN- route. The great
popularity of these tours demonstrates
the wisdom of the movement.

Philadelphia and Pittsburg, January
81, February "a, and March 81.
The first tour will run direct to San
Diego via ST. Louis ana the Santa Fe

elevated him. Mr.. PenrOse Is an able
lawyer and a trained legislator, He has
been a member of the Pennsylvania as
sembly for many years, first as a repre-
sentative and later as senator. In both
bodies he took honorable rank and has
ever been an Industrious, careful, wise and
diligent lawmaker. His promotion to Il
wider field of legislation Is the reward
of duty well performed. That he was
the choice of the people of the state is
evident from the great majority given
him. Many gentlemen in the state, emil
nent in various occupations were eager TO
assume the duties and responsibilities of
United States senator, but few of these
could present an equal claim on the score
of fitness with Mr.. Penrose, and though
the claims of each We're carefully weighed
in the public's judgment the popular mind
held fast to its first choice and strictly
adhered to the conviction that Mr.. Pen
