PLATFORM ADOPTED.
Praise for the Administration of
William Mckinley.

HarristHrg, April Following is
the platform adopted by the Republic
can state convention today:
The Republicans of Pennsylvania by their rep
rCsentatives in convention assembled extend con.
gratulatons to their fellow Republicans through.

conditions everywhere existing and the content.
ment and happiness enjoyed by the American
people under the administration Of President Nc.
kinley. All these conditions have resulted from
four years of Republican rule in our national
affairs We therefore reaffrm the doctrines
enunciated in the last Republican national plat
form and again congratulate the people upon
the faithful hIlfllment OF all the pledges therein
contained.
The business, economic and social conditions
prevailing in the country at the close of the
Cleveland administration were deplorable In
dustry parayzed; trade and commerce Ian.
guished; business was unsettled; monetary values
were uncertain, and the public treasury was de-
pleted. All these conditions are now changed
All branches of industry are active, and less
than l per cent. Of our population is unem.
plOyed Our export trade is larger than ever
known in our history; business isl active and
remunerative; monetary values are permanently
settled; and in the public treasury large sur
plus replaces the deficit Of the last sdmnstra-
tion. These splendid conditions are largely due
to the wise and patriotic administration of the
president We firmly support and fully indorse
his administration and again record the wish
of the Republicans Of Pennsylvania that he be
renominated to lead our hosts to victory at the
November election and to this end we instruct
the delegates this day elected TO favor his can.
didacy in the national convention.
For the national defense, for the reinforcement
of the navy, for the enlargement of our foreign
markets; for lie employment of American work.
men in the mines forest, farms, mills, factories
and shipyards We demand the enactment of legs-
lation similar to tnat fayorably reported to each
branch of congress, that American built,
American owned and American manned ships
may regain the carrying of our foreign com
merce. We congratulate the whole country upon
the fact that the money question no longer dis,
turbs our business conditions. On account of the
wise policy adopted by Republican president
and a Republican congress- the gold standard is
now accepted as the monetary unit of value.
This places our business transactions on stable
basis and will encourage capital to seek invest.
ment and labor TO find employment.

sylvania is a great state, but the Re-
publican party is even greater than the
state. 1t is a grand organization and
has survived the disappointments of
men. 1t stood by Lincoln, and it has
stood by Mckinley during the three
years of his administration. and it will
stand by him the next four years of
his administration. There is not enough
energy in the Democratic party to alb
sorb the surplus energy in the Repub-
lican party. Mistakes are made in all
parties and by all men, sgreater mis-
take is not to abide by the will of the
majority. There is a good fellowship
and good cheer among the members of
this organization. We should never for
get that Pennsylvania is the keystone
of this great national organization. No
one doubts what will be the result Of
the presidential election in this state
the next forty-siX years, as there has
been no room for doubt since Free
ment, forty-six years ago. The Repup-
lican party is right in the judgment Of
the civilized world, and all we have to
do is to stand just where we are. He
congratulated the party that the con-
Vention was a quiet and harmonious
gathering. When Governor Stone fin
ished, the convention at ESQ p. m. ad-
journed sine die.
Mr. Foerderer's Statement.
Mr. Foerderer tonight made the fol-
lowing statement: 1T is hardly neces-
sary for me to say that l am highly
gratified at the very handsome vote I
received in today's convention. While
the nomination came with practical
unanimity from a representative body
OF the Republicans of the state of
Pennsylvania, | do not take Il as a
personal compliment, but rather as a
recognition of the loyalty of the city
of Philadelphia and the vast business
interests of the commonwealth. If
elected, | shall endeavor to perform nv
duties as congressman faithfully and
for the best interests Of the people of
the state"
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1900-04-26
Administration Commended.

We commend the business.like administration
Of the officers OF the commonwealth. Auditor
General Levi G. McCauley and State Treasurer
James S. Beacon have been vigorous in the
performance of their public duties, especially in
the matter of the collection of delinquent taxes
against corporations and others. We demand
that this policy he continued until all taxes
are promptly paid and all delinquents stall have
paid their arrearages in full. The retiring state
treasurer, Hon. James S. Beacon, came into
office at a time when the state treasu,y v was de.
pletcd but has managed he fiscal affairs
Of the commonwealth as to have generally merit
ed and received the commentator Of oil fair.
minded people. Warrants have been promptly
paid when presented, and there is a. present no
outstanding floating debt and the credit of the
commonwealth is a matter for public congratu.
lation and pride. This very crcdtabe rerold is
the best testimonial of the efhcienW OF The Ie.
tring state treasurer and meets with the ap-
proval OF the people who elected him to office.
We declare against all unlawful and illegal
combinations of capital to the detrment OF
business and trade and against the best interests
of the laborng people. We also favor the
enactment Of such immigration laws as will
protect the American laborer from the unfair
competition of the cheap and pauper labor Of
Europe.

Faith in the Majority.

We believe in the fur damental principle OF gov.
ernment that the will of the majority properly
asccrtained, shall always prevail. We declare
that this principle applies well to political
parties as to other gov yernmental affairs The will
of the majority must always be ascertaineG under
the rules, customs and usages of a party organ
ization. Therefore the primary elections, the
county and state conventions, the senatorial and
congressional conferences and the party caucus
have come to be an integral part of the ma
chinery OF party organization for the purpose OF
ascertaining the will OF the majority Of those
who have a right to participate theroin. We
declare it to I've the test Of party fealty to OBJ
serve these rules and in ascertaining the will
of the majority by attending the party con-
vention, conference or caucus and when the will
Of the majority has been asoertained it is the
duty of every person, who claims to be Re-
publican to abide by that decision
