ever, a woman can have a drlV-

the same material from which
her husbands is made.

HONOR QUAY'S NAME.
Pennsylvania Senate and
House In Special Session.
GOVERNOR pEyNYPlCKER ELOQUENT
"His Final Reliance Was Ever Upon
the Confidence OF the People and
His Personal Efforts Seated
Two Presidents.v

HARRISBURG, Pa, March 23.-The
senate and house OF representatives Of
Pennsylvania met. In joint special ses-
sion last night to do honor to the mem
DRY of the late United States Senator
Matthew Stanley Quay. The memorial
services were held In the hall Of the
house and were presided over by Lieu
tenant Governor Brown. Governor
Pennypacker delivered the eulogy. In
addition to the members Of the legisla-
ture nearly all the prominent state Off
clals were In attendance.
In his eulOgy OF the late senator Gov
erpor Pennypacker among other things
said
"ln the capacity for the building up
and the maintenance of political forces
and for their application to the accom-
pllshment of public ends II may well
be doubted whether the country ever
before produced the equal Of Mr.. Quay.
From the time of his election to the Of
fee of state treasurer In 1895 down I'M
Ill his death on the 2Sth of May, 1904
public and political results in this
state may be said to have rested upon
his decision. During this long period
every means which human ingenuity
could devise and unlimited resources
could bring to bear was used to over
throw his influence.
His final reliance was ever upon the
confidence of the people. When In
1885 the political powers then in con
troll decreed his retirement he an
nounced instead his candidacy for a
high state office, and he won. Ten
years later seemingly overwhelming
forces united to wrest from him the
control of the organization Of his par
~. They included the governor. the
mayor Of Plttsburg. the party organi-
cations in Philadelphia and Pittsburg
and the strongest corporate influences
in the state. But, 10 use his own meta
phor, he carried the fiery cross from
Philadelphia TO Erie. The very audac-
ity Of the movement brought the people
TO his support, and again he won.
The time came when the personal in
huence OF Mr.. Quay. apart from that
OF the state In whose councils he was
so potent, was exerted in national af
fairs. In 1887 he took his seat in the
United States senate. To an extent
equaled by few other American states
men he permanently affected the de-
velopment Of our national life. For a
quarter Of a century no Republican
could have been elected president Of
the United States and no national poll
cy have succeeded without his consent
Two of the presidents were placed in
that high office because OF his personal
efforts The manufacturers of the
country made their contracts for the
erection of mills and the employment
of workmen with sense OF entire Sc
curity that so long as he remained in
the senate the doctrine Of protection, so
important TO them, would be maintain
ed as the national policy"
