From the Philadelphia Press we
gather that the following-named gen
tlemen from Somerset county were pres
ent and participated in the ''Taxpay-
ers' Unionn meeting held in Philadel-
phia last week, at which John Wana-
maker was nominated for Governor.
From what source they obtained their
credentials, or by what authority they
undertook to represent the Republicans
Of Somerset county, the Press does not
state.
That the agents Of Mr.. Wanamaker
paid the freight, or, in other words
furnished railroad transportation, and,
perhaps, the wherewithal TO defray
other little incidental expenses for all
but two of the party, who have their
own transportation, goes without say
ing. Is it any wonder then that these
very practical ''reformers" were enthu-
siastie for Mr.. Wanamak er's nOmina
ton, and for anything that his paid
agents wanted done? And isn't it de-
Iightfully humorous, the coyness Of Mr..
Wanamaker in apparently hesitating
TO accept nomination for which he
expended thousands Of dollars in bring
ing together his friends" that they
might tender him it. But, here are
the names:

THERE assembled in the Bourse build
ing in Philadelphia last Wednesday
large number of self-appointed, self-ae-
credited delegates. principally from the
city Of Philadelphia and adjoining
counties, who formed an organization
knpwn as the Taxpayers Union"
adopted platform chsrging the Stale
Government and Senator Quay with all
manner of abuses, and nominated John
Wanamaker as their candidate for Gov
ernor.
The Republican Taxpayers Union is
the latest form of the business Mems
League, the members OF which organ
ization made a lamentable failure in
their efforts to elect Mr. Wanamaker 10
the United States Senate, aud later to
control the Federal patronage Of the
eastern part Of the State. a glance at
the list Of delegates recalls very vividly
the campaign of 1852. Most of those
prominent in Wednesdays meeting
We're active in the Independent cam
paign Of that year which resulted in the
defeat Of General Beaver, and the elec-
tion Of a Democratic Governor. While
denouncing Senator Quay as political
boss these pure reformers unblush-
ingly adopt the very tactics they pre-
tend TO condemn in him, and openly
attempt to exclude every other candi-
date save the ont Of their naming. If
their actions anS atterances mean any
thing, they mean that If their chosen
candidate, Wanamaker, is not ronina-
ted by the next Republican COnven-
tiOn, be win still be a candidate at the
November election. They practically
say TO the Republican voters of the
State: 1--WE have named for YOU a can
didate for Governor; endorse him at
your convention, or we will run i'm as
an independent candidate and defeat
your Dominee.n
Mr.. Wanamaker has an andoubted
right to aspire to the governorship, but
he, his friends and followers should ae-
cord the same right to Hon. c. w.
Stone, Col. w. A Stone and the several
other equally honorable gentlemen who
are open and avowed candidates for the
same position.
We greatly misjudge the temper Of
the Republican voters Of the State if
they do not resent this unwarranted at
tempt at dictatIon on the part Of
handful Of political shysisrs, political
Sore heads, political cast offs, mug
wumps, iay-dneaming iinkers and the

But the resolution was declared carried
unanimously" notwithstanding the
strong chorus Of nays. Resolutions were
adopted denouncing the Capitol Cominis-
sion and advocating the election of United
States Senators by direct vote of the peo-
pie. Then, to avoid the weil-grounded
suspicion that the title had been selected
with view Of boiling the regular con-
venti0n, the delegates reconsidered the
vote by which the organization was styled
the Republican Taxpayers Association.
Then, amid much confusion, the confer
ence adjourned.

Proposed G. A. R. Colony.

GALVESTON, Tex, Feb 6.-John f.
Pierce, ranchman and land owner, here
today on business announced that he
has closed a deal with the G. A. X. peo-
pie whereby they take .. j.OO0acres of land
in Matagora county. This trade has been
on for some time, but it was not known
that it would go through until yesterday.
Mr.. Pierce received a telegram from Cen
eral Adams, of Minneapolis, representing
the G. A. r., saying all the papers had
been signed Mr.. Pierce will go to Vic
toria Monday and conclude the arrange
ments that are necessary for the final
transfer of the land. The G. A. X. people
will use it as a colony on which they pro
pose to place about 1900 families, will

The Ruined California Crane Crop.

The partial loss to the grape crop this
year, caused by the heavy rains, is esti-
mated to exceed 100000. Farmers and
vineyards all over the northern part of
the State have suffered, and shipments of
the fruit to the East are proportionally
small At least one quarter of the crop
is lost. While this is true, it is equally a
fact that lost and failing strength may be
restored to the weak and nervous by the
persistent, systematic use of the great ma
ti0nal tonic, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
which renews ths tone and harmonious
activity of the stomach, liver aud the
bowels, eounteracts a tendency 10 rheu-
matism and kidney complaint, and pre-
vents malarial disorders. Convalescence.
after exhausting diseases have run their
course, is often timeous and tedious. Re
cOvery is greatly accelerated by the use Of
the Bitte-s, which improves the appetite
and imparts renewed vigor TO debilitated
physique. A wineglassful before meals
creates hearty zest for food.

THE treasury gold fund keeps right
on growing, notwithstanding the re
ports sent out recently that il was al
ready so large as to be burdensome.
The Sl6I 10000 mark has just been
crossed in the upward movement, max
ing a new record for the period which
has passed since, the middle of Harri-
sons administration. Not since 1890
has this line been touched. Although
the treasury may be somewhat embar-
rassed, or imagine that it is, by the
size of this gold accumulation, the fact
that the gold is in the Governments
hands and not in safe-deposit vaults or
private boards shows financial conf
dence in the situation throughout the
country which is very gratifying.

been long and loud that enabled "Br'er

aggregation of venerable political fos-

many who have been identified with
every bolt or disorganizing movement
that has taken place in the Republican

were of the vintage of 's2, and have
been in political quarantine since that
