Aug. ell—The Pennsyl- vania Republican state convention was ' called to order in the Grand Opera House , ' by Chairman AfiferWS, of the state com- mittee, in the presence of about 500 per- sons, outside the 204 delegates comprising the convention. The usual hall decora- tions were absent, and excepting a few tropical plants the stage was without any ornamentation. Harry Hall, of Mercer no room for divisions and dififerences and and state treasurer great care should be platform victory was certain. McKinley Applnndcd. The speaker' took strong grounds in fa— vor of an honest dollar and against free silver. 0n the subject of protection he said other states were waiting for the ver- dict of the Republican party of Pennsyl- vania, especially Ohio, in which McKinley was making a great fight. The name of McKinley was vigorously applauded. Mr. Hall gave warning that the Democrats of 1892J and that the time had come for the Republicans to buckle on their pol-iti- cal armor. ‘ I The speech closed with a panegyric of enthusiasm, in which Mr. Hall pointed to him as the probable candidate of the party .for president. . A motion for the appointment of a com- mittee of seven to prepare the platform of the convention was amended by provi ing for the selection of 'One member from each of the fifty senatorial districts. ‘ general and state treasurer in‘ the order -. named. The convention then appointed committees on permanent organization, credentials, platform and to determine on candidates for the constitutional conven- tion, .for the holding Of which the‘ last legislature passed a law, provided a ma- jority of the voters of the state decided in favor of- one. Chris Magee, the Allegheny county Republican leader, was made chain man of the committee on resolutions, and William R. Leeds, United States marshal at Philadelphia, chairman of the commit- tee on permanent organization. Blaine for President. The following platform was reported by the committee, and it was adopted by the convention: ‘ ‘ ~ ' The Republican party of Pennsylvania, in convention assembled, reaffirming the cardinal principles of the party enunciated by the na tional convention of 1888, and approving the course of the Republicans of the Fifty-first congress in incorporating them into the law of the land, make the following declaration: We heartily indorse the broad and statesman- like administration of President Harrison. We view with peculiar satisfaction the direc tion of the affairs of the postofiice department by the Hon. John Wanamaker, and his clean, businesslike and comprehensive administratioz of its affairs. ' It has been with special gratification that the Republicans of this commonwealth have ob served the brilliant administration of the. stati department by one of Pennsylvania‘s native sons, whose superb diplomacy has electrified the hearts of all Americans, exacted from for- eign peoples a degree of respect and admiration for the United States flag hitherto unequaled, and opened wide to us in other lands commer- cial gates heretofore barred. In view of hi: magnificent adhievements in diplomacy in state craft we earnestly express the hope that tho Republican national convention in 1892 may place in unanimous nomination for the presi- dency—which nomination we feel assured will be followed by a triumphant election—the Hon James G. Blaine, of Pennsylvania and Maine. We cordially indorse the action of the Repub‘ lican congress in passing the McKinley bill. We favor bimetalism, so regulated as to al- low free coinage of all the gold and silver pro duced from American mines and so guarded by tariff duties as to protect our country an its currency from the debasement which will surely follow if this nation is made the dump ing ground for the silver of the world; Pattison Denounéed. We reaffirm our devotion to- providing prop : er and adequate financial aid to all deserving veterans of the late war still surviving, and ti the widows and orphans of those who have on tered the bivouac of the dead. ‘ We denounce the unscrupulous partisanship of Governor Pattison in vetoing all the appor- tionment bills passed in compliance with con stitutional direction by the late Republican legislature, and in negativing other legislation particularly the compulsory educational bill having in view the material and moral inter ests of the people of Pennsylvania. We commend the Republican mayor, city solicitor, county controller and district attor ’ ney of Philadelphia for their discovery and prompt prosecution of those guilty of official.1 malfeasance. , We are in favor of the prompt repeal by tho legislature of all the mercantile taxes levied by the state, and of such amendments to ‘the rev- enue and other laws as will efi’ectually promoto the orderly receipt, the lawful and safe cus tody and the prompt and proper disbursement, not only of the moneys of the common-Wealth but of all its cities, boroughs and townships. We favor such legislation as Will Secure to the firemen of our state relief from any disabil ity or sickness caused by exposure orservico it the performance of their duties, and which will secure from want any person or‘ persons. de pendent on any fireman who 'may lose his lift in the public service, or die from any cause con sequent thereupon. . - . The Rival Candidates. The convention then took a recess. ,The different candidates are pushing theii claims very earnestly. General Gregg who is generally regarded as SenatOI Quay’s candidate for auditor general, ha: arrived in response to a telegram. : A been formed in- which Gregg figures as auditor general and Price as state trees urer, but the latter says there is nothing in this story, andthat he will try. conclu sions with Gregg in. the convention; , The prevailing sentiment, however, is that Price will finally take the latter position.
