MCKINLEY has always been what is called “‘a fair spoken man.” That is to say he bas always been generous with promises and quoting the Scripture to sus- tain a pretence, he is ever watchful for op- portunities to dodge his obligations. From the beginning of his first adminis- tration, four years ago, until its close at noon on Monday his public record is one of equivocation.

It allowed thousands of dol- lars to go for the improvement of streams of which there is no record at all. Every- body knows how easy a thing that is. But the measure was held back from the start as a lever to promote other legislation. For some weeks it was used freely to work sup- port for the ship-subsidy bill and there was a time that the indications pointed to the passage of that measure on account of it. But other questions came up of even greater hope of successful opposition to corrupt rule and mal-administration of public af- fairs. A large majority of the voters of the Commonwealth are members of one or the other of the different political organizations that present tickets. Three-fourths of the people vote straight party tickets,and these three-fourths have a right to have the bal- lot so arranged and printed that a single mark will indicate a vote for the whole. To simplify the ballot so that the most circumstances the court would have been obliged to give its unqualified endorse- ment to such part of the Governor’s action as came within its view and the result of the litigation would thus have taken on the character of a splendid victory. : But the action of the court yesterday in admitting the Montgomery county cases into the consideration and allowing Mr. Kratz to participate in the argument assures the presentation of the points from which the Attorney General ran away from in the Dauphin court and admitted the Govern- fire-fighters, yet with the same grace with which they danced around the May pole last spring, over 200 Bryn Mawr college students Wednesday tugged at the fire hose, fought the flames and prevented the destruction of one of the pretty cottages on the college ~The Barclay heirs of Bedford have sold a tract of timber land near Rainsburg, Bed- ford county, to P.

In the Spanish war we undertook to perform an act of benev- olence in bebalf of an oppressed people, the Cubans. Before the conflict had reach- ‘ed the second stage our earth hunger had been aroused and we determined while keeping in a qualified way the pledge made with respect to Cuba; to take : all the other territory belonging to Spain that we could get our bands on. That was Keeping the promise to the hope which was being broken to the ear. In other words it was changing ‘our war of benevolence to one of conquest without violating the letter of the pledge. To make an excuse for this perversion of plans we accept the friendliness of Great Britain as a settlement of onr obligations to France and Russia. though we cannot disguise the fact that the new friendship is | tainted with selfishness. 9 4 ~ From the beginning of her colonial ex- periments Great Britain bas held that the power to take conveyed legitimate title to ‘the property taken.

This country has held, on the other band, to the notion that the just pow- ers of government are derived from the oon- sent of the governed. As ex-President HARRISON states if we now adopt the Brit- ish theory we abandon the American theory, for they are opposite as the antipodes. The question is then which of the proposed con- tracking parties has changed ? We shall watch and wait with interest an answer to these questions. £ ——Suberibe for the WATCHMAN, nt of a similar policy remembered that during the Congress just ended an herculean attempt was made to keep Mr. CLARK in the Senate, though he then was accused of bribery,and the friends ‘of Senator QUAY were in the deal with the understanding that if CLARK stayed in he would vote to les QUAY in too. They were: partners in a corrupt deal then that failed, and they are precisely on the same level now and should be kept in or thrown out together. ir : The worst that has been said of CLARK ‘is that he bribed members of the Legislature #0 vote for bim. How else did QUAY get the votes of Senator WASHBURN and Rep- resentative GALVIN for -his election. No attempt has been made to collect evidence on the subject for it is known that QUAY will be seated whether his election was im- properly procured or not. But why should there be a difference between the treatment of him and CLARK? Is it that the Stand- ‘ard oil, trust and the Sugar trust want one 'in the chamber and desire to keep the other out. That would appear to be the truth, bus it is hardly a just way of dealin ‘with the subject. . ——Overseer of the poor JOHN TRAF- FORD, who retired from office on Monday, went out with a record of which any man could feel proud.

The Legislature reassembled on Tuesday evening after a few days ‘off to attend the inauguration at Washington and there is an implied promise that from this time to the end of the session there will be some- thing like strict attention ‘to business. Thus far there has been an extraordinary disregard of the claims of duty on the Sena- tors and Representatives. Hitherto the bills have kept the Houses in session, but the slightest provocation’ and more than half the time has been spent away. Moreover it is about time to begin op- erations on the ‘‘pinch’’ bills that have been introduced, and that will keep the statesmen at the capital.
