the state divided democrat or pop
ulist might receive a larger number of
votes than any of the three republican
candidates.
A similar proposition has been made
for breaking the deadlock in the Penn
slyvania legislature. The Pennsyl
vania plan differs, however in that it
is only proposed to let the republican
voters of the state express themselves.
If the majority of the republicans vote
for Quay, he is to be elected, and if
the majority are against him he is to
withdraw from the field. The Quay
supporters have not agreed to this
plan, and apparently are fearful of
the result. This plan was tried in
Lebanon county, the representatives
from which county We're voting for
Quay. The republicans of that county
held an election and the anti-Quay men
carried the day. In spite of this result,
however, the Lebanon county men are
still voting for Quay.
