Especial CorrespondenceO
Philadelphia, March 6.-Corrected re-
turns from the Republican primary
elections held throughout Pennsylva-
mia last Saturday show that there was
a veritable Waterloo for the Republi-
can insurgent forces and caucus bolt
ers. The principle that the majority
shall rule apparently is not going to
be ignored by the Republicans of the
old keystone commonwealth and thou
sands of them have again taken ad-
vantage of an opportunity to show
their loyalty to this fundamental prin-
ciple of their party, In every case
where candidate made a canvass
as an avowed anti-Quay man or
where he was backed by the Finn
Martin outfit he suffered crushing de-
feat.
Lancaster, Mercer, Lawrence, Arm
strong and Union counties wheeled
into line with the stalwart procession
and they nominated men who are
pledged to abide by the action OF :
majority of the Republican caucus in
the organization of the legislature and
in the selection of a Republican can
! didate for United States senator.
This result is but emphasizing the
votes of the Republicans of Jefferson
and Snyder counties, where stalwart
legislative nominations had previously
been made.
LANCASTER'S CLEAN SWEEP.
The Republican primary elections in
Lancaster county, Notwithstanding the
fact that there was only one ticket in
the field, there being opposition on
only two county offices, was remark
able for the magnitude of the vote
polled.
In Lancaster city the full returns
show that over $500 votes were polled,
and the total vote cast in the county
exceeded 10000.
The offices for which there was a
semblance of contest were recorder
and director of the poor. For recorder
the candidates were: Charles B. Kel-
Ter, of Mannheim township, and John
H. Bausman, of Lancaster city. Keller,
who had been the support of the
Griest- Quay combination, is elected by
probably 1000 majority The full vote
of the city gives Keller 1892 and Baus-
man 25S.
