WIIOAT KVENINO, AUGUST I IUO 1.
Organs Out or Tunc.
The ItepUbllcan national cemmitter) Is
r trouble ercr tlie tlcniHtid of tlie Laber
Union that it ahull boycott tliu New
Yerk Tribune because It refuses te pay
Its compealtora what lliey have do de
mended. Then there Is another demand
that Calvin Wells, proprietor of the
Philadelphia Press, shall be put off the
electoral ticket because he refuses te
comply with the union's demands.
Evidently organs have their dlsadvan
takes. Newspapers which an) published
as business ventures are out of place in
political harness. They cannot nerve
Ged and Mammen. They cannot keep
en the right slde of public questions
when their main Intent Is te make
money ; at least without extraordinarily
careful and nervous steering. There
will nrlae questions en which te go
aright they must go ngainst the popular
current; and ether questions such as the
ene In which the i'rw.i and the 7'n'",i.
are arrayed against tiic labei unions, in I
which their business Interests will ciasu
with the popular demand. If candidal! s
must have organs it Is eridently trecen"
eary that hi presidential cainp.ilgns they
must be temered and tuned, ami in
duced for the nonce te tilt down the
business ends of their concerns Unit the
political side may be tipumled. Mr.
Maine, it is said, has undertaken te
temper the Tribune te a proper sense of
the needs of the situation, and certainly
as the only Hl.iiiiu organ in the great
metropolis, it should bring itself Inte
harmony with its candidate's loud dt
claratien of devotion te the interest of
labor. If for this occasion only, the
Tribune should pay union wages, and
send in a bill for the extra cost te
the national committee. The I'ran,
as the number two Hlnine organ,
et the country, In its second city,
should de the same. After the election Is
ever, prices can be nllewed te drop again,
and the proprietors of the organs my
once mere enjoy the luxury of publishing
them en what they deem business princi
ples, and witli a sole view te tilling their
treasury. If they don't cheese te de
this and won't sacrifice dollars for votes,
they should cease te be organs. Mr.
Blaine should repudiate the conduct
that is obnoxious te his lalmr supporters,
and Mr. Wells should be kicked out. It
won't de for Mr. Illalne, premising te
bloom as the candidate of the Irtish ard
the labor unions and women suffragi-ts
te be blighted by organs Unit won't play
ids tunes and practice ills music right
straight along until election day.
1'ciiiisjlvanla Agriculture.
The state agricultural fair will be
held In Philadelphia this jear, and the
present presjiect Is that it will be a suc
cess. It lias been deemed an objection
te tills location that it was net sulll.
clently central, geographically, for a
representative exposition of Peiirisyhn.
n'a's fanning interests ; but when it is
considered that se ni'iny of the almost
exclusively agricultural counties of the
state He about Philadelphia, and that
the sclence of farming lias in them
reached its highest development, the
fitness of the location is easily demon
strated. Then there are facilities of
travel, transportation and organisatien
te be secured in Philadelphia winch can
not be had elsewhere.
It will at least be well weilh the ex
pertinent te held a series of exhibitions
in Philadelphia, and the piounse el
hearty cooperation with the state nuclei)
en the part of the State IIertfeutLur.il
association, tlie Pennsylvania Horticul
tural society, tlie State Poultry society,
the Philadelphia Kennel club and the
Women's Silk Culture association,
strengthens tlie iftsurunce that the affair
will be worthy of Pennsylvania's place in
the agricultural resources and develop
ment of tlie country. Preeminent as
Pennsylvania is as a manufacturing and
mining atnte, it is net te be fei gotten or
overlooked that her original development
was largely due te and much of Ik i
present strength lies in the wealth of her
soil and the advanced state of its tillage.
Nearly one fourth of her peeple are en
gaged in agricultural operations : only
Illinois, Missouri, New Ver It and Ohie
surpass this Htate in their number of
farms ; and llllueli -the greatest farm
lug Htate has only three-llfths mere
acres under cultivation, while tlie total
value of the farm lauds in Peunsylvanl.i
was in lhSO within a trllte of thoMief
Illinois.
Our agriculture is in every aspect,
relative or absolute, an important inter
est which can be stimulated and aided
In no better way than by well directed
and unsellislily managed exposition!'.
We expect here In Lancaster county te
make the local exhibition worthy of
the place our community lias long
held at the very head of the list of all the
counties in tlie country ; but there are
seme features of fanning in which ether
counties of tlie atate still go ahead of
Lancaster, and In which our tllleisef
the soil have many things te learn fieut
them ; and they can study them te prellt
at a state fair.
Tlie Sun's Position.
The Philadelphia Tiuua thinks that
the New Yerk Sun has It in hand te
beatlllaine with Cleveland, Cleveland
with Ilutler, liuller with St. Jehn, and
St. Jehn with seme ether fellow. That
is laughing at the Sun; but the Sun
seems te ua te have the laugh en Its own
side. It can enjoy the luxury of perfect
independence among the candidate
striking mid helping wliore it pleases
with none te say it nay. Of course It Is
la bad condition te earn tlie rewards or
an ergau. Uul Uiose are net its gaum.

and if It exercises geed Judgment ami
discretion It will get it. In this cam

cency Tha un Is never disposed te be

dc It thought that Hancock was a
g&i can, weighing 240 pounds. It
tfc&fcs that Cleveland is a geed man in
l&pJKc; as sheriff, for instance. Mr,
Dann Inclines te put loe much value en
Intellectual brilliancy and tee little en
sturdy qualities of character. He would
never have approved of (Jeerge Wash
Ington as the man of men for president.
Washington would net have inadu much
show in these da)?, unless accident hail
thrust lilm forward Inte a position of
responsibility, as Cleveland ha lieen.
Then he would have luen equal te it
Hut he wai net of a character te push
himself forward or te attract tlie atten
tlen of the world te him In Ills obscurity
by the brilliancy of his genius. He
was net aglow-worm as many of the
