Yates Is Hopeful.

Former Governor Yates. after going over the late returns Sunday night said he did not concede Gov. Deneen's s nomination at this time Until all the official returns were in, he said, he would not be able to make state ment other than he still believes the official canvasses will give him much larger majorities in many of the coun- ties out in the state.
 Reports from many of the counties in the south end of the state indicate that the complete returns will not be available until the returns are official ly canvassed by the local boards. The vote in the cities was taken as a basis on which to estimate the prob able vote of the county.

Uniform Dishonored Aqain.

Another manifestation of hostility to the national uniform is reported from New London, Conn. in conse- quence of which the commanding off Ger of the Naval Academy practice squadron has requested that the base of operations be changed to Newport, to avoid the discourtesy with which his subordinates are treated. There has been similar experience on the part of sailors at Newport. but that place appears to have repented of misdeeds and in the face of popular protest and official denunciation to have reversed former action. The bat. tleship cruise and the example shown by the people of the Pacific coast have proved that our officers and sailors as a whole are well-behaved lot, says the Troy (N. Y.) Times. and that the courtesies extended are not abused Newport has taken the lesson to heart. and New London Is likely to discover the error of contrary course.

master General Meyer today inform
ed the senate that he believed he
has the right to continue a postmas-

Meyer declares that under the regu-
lations governing appointments he
has the authority to continue North

been appointed. His position will

Scranton, Pa, Feb. PA movement
OF national scope to nominate Judge
George Gray for the presidency was
launched here tonight when the demo
cratic county committee unanimously
passed an appeal to the democrats OF
the country favoring his nomination
| by the democratic naiOnal convention
and called upon candidates for nation
al delegates in this congressional dis
trict to pledge their votes to him
The following resolutions were unani-
mously adopted.
1--WE favor the nomination for the
presidency of the United States Of the
| Hon. George Gray of Delaware.
| I'm him are united the elements oa
high, unselfish, far-seeing statesman
ship If placed IN nomination by the
democratic national convention his
election is certain.
The uprightness of his private life
is an inspiration. That he is compare
lively poor and that all his life he
has placed the duty of public service
above private enrichment are guaran-
tees that if elected he will be the ser
want of the whole peole.
''He has reconciled capital and labor
in the bitterest industrial war of mod
ern times. Noteworthy among these
|reconciliations is that accom-
|plished by the anthracite strike
commission Of which he was
chairman. No peacemaker in the
whole range of American history ranks
with this man in the service he has
rendered to his country.
''He has risen to the heights of true
statesmanship in his performance of
the duties of attorney general Of the
state Of Delaware, as United States
senator from that state, as head of
mulated the treaty ending the Spanish
American war. AS member of the
the Paris peace commission that for
permanent international peace COM
mission appointed in accordance with
the treaty of The Hague, as membes'
cided the Behring sea controversy and
as sole arbitrator in dozen or more
controversies between capital and Ia
Dor.
I'VE recognize in him the genius OF
common sense and a profound SYM
pathy with humanity. He is demo-
crat who is worthy successor of the
great Jefferson and, above all else,
he is an American of the best and
strongest type.
"To his initiative and force must be
attributed the reform of the child la
Dor laws in Pennsylvania and in large
measure, the success of the child la
Dor movement throughout the coun-
try. His public and private record is
unblemished. Qualities of the highest
and most inspiring leadership are
his.
1--WE commend him to the American
people as the ideal candidate in this
national emergency and call upon
those who are candidates for delegates
to the national convention from this
district to declare themselves in favor
Of his nomination.

luy 20 a climax and close. "I have
observed" he said, that the r:si-
bilities Of the other side were con-
siderably stirred by the clash of two
individual opinions on this side The
republicans seem to rejoice in the fact
that there fs no rod or iron on the
democratic side to secure absolute
unanimity of opinion. We recog-
nize a contrast that the republicans
are generally united, notwithstand-
ing the fact that now and then when
one of them is warned by another to
get out of the way or be run down"
