REPUBLICAN, JUBILEE.
Flftieth Anniversary of the Formation
Of the PARTY.

Philadelphia.-ln the same assembly
room in Music Fund hall, where, on
June II. 1856, the Republican party
opened its first national convention,
which named Fremont and Dayton as
its presidential ticket, there gathered,
Sunday hundreds of Republicans from
different sections of the country to
commemorate the event. 1t was the
opening meeting of the four days eel
ebration of the fifteth anniversary of
the Republican party under the aus
pices of the National Republican
League.
The old hall. which has changed lit
tie since the first convention was held
within its walls. was crowded with en-
thusiastic Republicans who cheered ev-
cry time the name OF n Republican
President was mentioned.
Among those who participated in
the exercises were 1872 men who had
voted for Fremont for President. They
entered the hall in body and were as
signed to seats in the front part of the
auditorium. The appearance of the old
men, some of whom could hardly walk.
was the occasion of long and enthus-
iastic applause.
In the ranks of the l52 was dele
gate who proposed the name of Abra-
ham Lincoln for vice president, but as
the Illinois man was not well known
the nomination went to Dayton.
While the meeting commemorated
the beginning of the first convention,
i; was devoted largely to addresses in
memory OF Abraham Lincoln.
Governor Pennypacker presided and
introduced Rev. Edward NJ. Levy, a
Baptist clergyman of this city, who de-
livered the Invocation at the opening
OF the convention fifty years ago. He
performed like service Sunday. Gov
ernor Pennypacker delivered an ad-
dress. Among other things, he said:
"Fittingly we meet within the limits
Of that commonwealth in which the
party has its origin and which, while
receiving the least proportionate re
ward. has ever given to it, the most
continuous and effective support.
Since the election of Abraham Lin
coin. in 1860, Pennsylvania has never
cast an electoral vote against candi-
date of the Republican party for the
presidency. The largest majority ever
received by presidential candidate in
America was given in Pennsylvania
to Republican
Historical papers were read by Will
liam Barnes, Sr., of New York, who
displayed flag which covered Lin
coins bier as his body lay in state at AL
bany; Dr. Robert Reyburn, Washing
ton, who attended both Lincoln and
Garfield, and Jacob Weand of Beaver,
Pennsylvania.
Col. A. X. Mcclure of this city de
livered an address on Abraham Lin

tyred Presidents life and the events
