POLITICAL.

At Erie, yesterday, the Democratic
State Convention nominated Robert Z.
Pattison for Governor; George W.
Guthrie of Allegheny county for
Lieutenant Governor, and James
Nolan cf Berks county for Secretary OF
Internal Affairs. Philadelphia county
was allowed but 20 delegates.
The Democrats polled 1856 votes for
Judge, which with the 1874 cast for the
Republican candidates for same Office
makes II ,2G0 votes cast for candidates
for that Office.
Grover Cleveland was the central
figure at the Democratic Unity gather
ing in New York last Thursday; and his
speech was an appeal to Democrats to
discard the issues on which they had
been defeated
Bryan il coming East to make a
Fourth OF July speech at Boston. to raj
ly his scattered 1egions in behalf OF free
silyer and populism. He boots at Hill
and Cleveland and viii answer them in
ringing terms
Zone of the political events OF last
week was the denunciation by the
Chester County Republican Convention
of one Of the Chester delegates who,
after pIedging himself to Elkin both in
writing and verbally, and having been
instructed by resolution, gave his proxy
to an opponent. That man will be held
up ia scorn for all time, as will, indeed,
all delegates who disregarded their in
structions, no matter what those in
structions were. The Chester conven-
tion declared for. Senator Snyder tor
United States Senator. FIX.
Corrupt methods could not be resort
ed to with success at State Convention
If weak and unprinclpled men were not
elected delegates. A man should be
glad of the opportunity to resist the
temptation to be bribed, just to show
himself that he Is not really at heart
rascal Men Of approved integrity
should always be placed in positions OF
trust. There are a great many semi
respected citizens who are not murderers
and thieves simply because they object
to being hanged or sent to prison. =
Punx'y Spirit
THE endorsement Of Senator w. 2.
Snyder, President Pro Tenn. OF the
Senate of Pennsylvania, by the Chester
county convention for election to the
United States Senate, gives the friends
of Senator Penrose much concern. They
believe now what they pooh-poohed al
the time Of the State convention, name
ly, that the Elkin people intend fighting
the Senator for reelection. The endorse
ment of Senator Snyder, it is conceded
will be followed by similar action il
every convention controlled by the Elixir
people Each county will endorse I
favorite son. They will follow th'
fashion set by Senator Quay when h'
had favorite sons brought out in manl
of the counties to prevent endorsement
of Ell1n. Says a dipatch from Wash

The Coffee Henrt.

The largest part of the coffee grown
in the world is consumed in the United
States. and some Of our life insurance
societies are beginning to realize how
its excessive use Inc eases the risks of
life. Its effect is in shortening the
long beat of the heart, and medical eX-
aminers for Insurance companies have
added the term coffee heart" to their
regular classification Of the functional
arrangements Of that organ. These
physicians advise that the use of cof-
fee be limited to not more than two
cups day. Coffee topers, they say.
are plentiful and are as much tied TO
their cups as the whisky topper. The
effect of he coffee upon the heart is
more lasting and consequently worse
than that Of quor.-Detroit Free

Postponement of the Coronation,

With the empire en- fete, with myriads
of flags flying as in gaudy mockery
from end to end of the city, and on the
very eve of his coronation, King Edward
VII has with dramatic suddenness been
stricken down Tuesday night. In Buck
ingham Palace, where he was born. ne
lies near to death. The royal families
have been summoned The chief
physicians of the empire are at hand,
noting minute by minute the condition
of the royal patient.
All the preparations for the corona
ton festivities are at an end. The army
of carpenters engaged on the huge
structures along the line of march
stopped their work
The holiday crowds along the streets
melted away. and in the clubs and
public resorts there was no topic of con-
versation except the Kings night with
death.
The news fell upon London with the
force and suddenness of a lightning
stroke. Nothing in the history of the
empire ever equaled the dramatic force
of it. Monday everybody with flag
flung it out from window or doorway
Tuesday everybody was praying that
the life of the King may be spared.
There was no further talk of feetivi-
ties. All programmes were abandoned.
