The Philadelphia Sltnatien.
Mr. Danes fellows Mr. Hunter in with
drawing from the Democratic municipal
ticket In Philadelphia. The situation there,
is attracting general attention, because of
Ita very peculiar features. The Republican
press Is pretending te be very merry ever
the efforts of the Democrats te get a ticket,
and has much te say about the watering
and changing, the backing nnd filling, of
candidates and leaders. It has no occasion
for merriment, and it is doubtful whether
It thinks it has. The Democratic leaders
are making It se apparent that their earn
est aim is te obtain first-class candidates
for the municipal offices, regardless of their
politics, and candidates that will be strong
est before the people, that they are greatly
strengthening, instead of weakening the
movement. There is no scramble for office
Mr. Hunter, a Republican, was nominated,
and withdrew because he thought he could
aet command the united Democratic vote,
!.-.
ae he probably could net have done. Tint
J&4.WM geed cause for withdrawal. Mr. Hanes
&- ""--""--- -"""-"ft
wuuujr juxijr ui&ei, iiuu una emy con
seated te run if it was made acceptable te
the Independent element by nominating a
Btreng Republican, Euch 03 Mr. Hunter,
te a place en the ticket. That was geed
reason for his w Ithdra wal.
But these withdrawal testify te the sin
cere purpose te secure non-partisan officers
for Philadelphia.
If this was ether than a municipal rlec
tien, Mr. Uanes would net have presented
such reasons for withdrawal, and Mr. Hun
ter, a Republican, would net have had the
opportunity te reject the nomination of a
Democratic convention. "We de net be
lieve In meements independent of political
parties, te elect te political offices that par
ties are especially appointed te fill. But
with municipal and Judicial offices, national
and state offices generally have no concern,
and the interests of the people are best sub
served by looking only te the integrity and
capacity of te official.
Philadelphia has a new charter te put in
operation, and the Republican party pro
poses te Inaugurate It en a party basis.
Thereseem3tobea feeling abroad in the
city that this i3 net well te be done and
this feeliDg may be strong enough te defeat
the Republican ticket, with non-partisan
nominations by the Democratic party, if
its votes can be solidly secured for such
nominations. Obviously this is a probjeu
tl'aMUui 'ttulT difficulty, and it 1? -0t sur
prising that there should be backing and fill
ing.veerlng and turning.te sail between the
difficulties In the way. The situation would
seem te be better, with te-day's clear field,
than It was yesterday, encumbered with
a ticket that was net a3 strong as possible.
What is needed is a Republican of standing
in his own party and in the community,
who can command the Democratic vote,
te stand with Banes upon the ticket. One
of the many Republican gentlemen who
are urging the independent movement
should step in te carry its banner in person;
and wherefore they should hesitate tode tede
fend their Ideas with their deeds we de net
knew.
Uniform DIrerce Laws.
Judge Bennett, in the last number of the
.Forum ,makeB a strong pleafer congressional
action en the subject of divorce. He points
out the simple way in which the nmrer
could be ledged in the hands of Congress.
n is uy simpiy inserting the words " and
divorce" in sections of th'e constitution
se that it shall read " Congress shall have
power te establish uniform laws en the
subject of bankruptcy (and divorce)
throughout the United States."
The great variety of divorce laws in tLe
several states makes criminal in one state
what Is proper in another. The climax is
reached in Arizona, where the law pro pre
vldea for divorce nt the option of the
Judge, " when the case is within the iea iea
sen of the law, or within what it may be
presumed the legislature establishing the
foregoing causes would have provided
against had they foreseen the evact
case."
A geed way out of the muddle would
seem te ba an amendment te the constltu censtltu constltu
tien providing for a uniform law of
divorce. This would net, however, be an
easy task; for Seuth Carolina forbids
divorces entirely and it would probably
oppose any federal compromise with this
great social evil.
The Case of Eliuiau.
The claim of Andrew Uhman te a
pardon finds great favor in the public
mind. It Is Instinctively believed te be
wrong that ene who for years has been
living a geed and honest life, Bhouldbe
sent back te jail te serve the term for
which he had been sentenced, and from
thlch he had escaped. The sympathy of
the public is wholly with him.
The object of the law is te deter from
crime, by its punishment ; but when a
convict has had a chance te show that he
usrermea and can Uveas agocdclti agecdclti
a, certainly the law should eay " Ged
B.eed te him," as the people say It.
This incident confirms the opinion that
we have long entertained that justice
yreald bs better cerved by a mere t use
HErai
byHM Ja4tMT( tbeir peme te uupead
entenee, peW oftener used by rhlladel
pbta judges than by any ethers In the state.
And there should, furthermore, be n
tlcketef-leave system.suches England has,
or an Improvement en it ; whereby crimi
nals of geed behavior In jail may be let
out of it, subject te recemmittal and con cen
flnement for the term of their sentence if
they abuBed the favor shown them, and
contlnue In their career of crime.
The advantages of this system bte se
obvious that it is strange that it has net
been ere new adopted. It would largely
empty the Jails and would mate mete easy
the work of the pardon beard if tills
power was cenilded te It , or almost take
away its business, if the courts tcre Riven
control of the discharges.
There is no reason why men should be
kept In Jail who will be of geed behavior
out of it , and what stronger inducement
te such behavior would there be than the
knowledge that lustant imprisonment will
fellow any Infraction of it f Let the
legislature ponder this question
The TTatcr.
The JVttc Era insists that the Hyatt eys
tern of; nitration is the best and least ex
pensive; and if se it is the one wanted when
the proposed change of the water works is
effected. But It will suffice our needs te
have the freshet mud taken from the water,
and a very simple and lneipensle mode of
filtration will de this. The Conestoga
water Is pure enough at present in the or
dinary condition of the stream it maybe
otherwise in the near future.
Six Pittsburg society ladies attended the
theatre the ether night and left their bonnets
In the care el the drlTen of their carriage
Each ei them should have a monument.
ALL who believe In strikes as the best
weapon of organ lied labor will watch the one
new In progress In New Yerk with great
Interest. It Is an ideal strike In everr particu
lar. A very large proportion of the men are
out from sympathy with the coal handlers
and men of the Old Dominion line , they
have no grievance of their own that would
move them te act as they have done and they
are nlmplyaldlug what they think the Just
canse of the llrst strikers. The business em
birrassed by the withdrawal of this large
amount el skilled labor is of a kind that can
net afford delay. A week of idleness will
show whether the labor Is worth the terms
demanded , If the blockade of freight Is net
raited commerce w 111 seek another pert.
By experience men are learning that
strikes are like wars, enormously expensive
and domerallilng, and should be avoided by
every device that diplomacy can suggest. It
Is hoped that they have also learned that
when beaten they can net bolster up their
imuse by violence, and though they appear
te have every prospect el succeea In New
Yerk, If a reverse should be followed by riot
ing the odds will at once be transferred te the
favor of their opponents, and public opinion
will sanction the strongest measures for the
protection and encouragement of any men
who may wlah te take their places. The geed
order that has se far prevailed augurs cenfl.
decce and resolution. A few days will show
whether the strike has the value claimed for
It, for there could hardly be a test mere fair
te both sides.
Arr-AHEMir woman should go West and
grew up with the country. The Senate of
Kansas has by a vote el 25 te 13, passed a bill
enfranchising women in cities of the fltst,
second and third class. J
a
Pbofe'ser Bxird says that the American
nhlng vessels did as well last year outside
of the three mile limit as the Canadians did
en both sides of it and that It Is possible the
mackerel may scen disappear entirely from
the ecene of the fishery troubles. The Ameri
cans have all along protested that the Inshore
flihine was worthless te them. Se there is no
need te fight about mackerel.
The American mackerel fishermen new use
seines and de net require bait, but if they
should need It can carry it from home. The
action of the Canadian government In this
matter simply had the effect el placing the
business of supplying bait in the hands of
Americans, and many Novla Scotia families
are in vt ant this winter because this business
was taken from them. Be there I is "heed te
fight about bait.
Our flshln? .teasels are mui.h larger that
whet tis" treaty was made in 1315 and de net
Bted te run Inte Canadian perta for shelter,
weed or water, except In eases of rare emer
gency. Common humanity will surely pre
vent Canada from refusing the privilege.
Se there Is no use te ttght ever that.
New for the cases of outrage, the se-called
' brutality" of the Canadian authorities. It
appears that most of the seizures were of ves
sels that In defiance of the prohibition of the
Canadian government ran Inte Canadlin
perta or fished within the limit when there
was no business reason for either action.
Many of the vessels had crews of Canadians
who Blmply landed te visit their families,
and thce evaded the Canadian custom laws
by smuggling Hupplles en shore. It appeals
that the Canadians often make the free trans
portation of supplies ler their families a con
dition of service en the American fishing
veel. We cannot light for American
smugglers.
A cod fisherman caught in the Ice was
driven into pert by necessity and brutally
treated by the Canadians. This Is an outrage
that clvllued Canada must regret and the
insults te the flag demand apology. The last
and only serious question between the coun
tries Is the refusal of Canada te permit Amer
ican fishermen te land their catch and ship It
by rail te the United States. They would
(ipecdily realize the injustice or this rule if It
was made te work the ether way, and the
bnslnetR of Canada with the United States
similarly choked. He there Is no need of war
eer that, and the whole miserable little
buslneas may only aerve the purpose of
teaching us te prepare for war In esse It
should ever take us from some ether quarter.

Till! Moravian mission In Alaska has
achieved the measure of success that gives It
a right te ask for liberal support and It Is
hoped that In a little while the missionaries
there may make as great a change In the
Esquimaux of Alaska as they long Bge
ellectcd in these of Greenland.
Llke all missionaries they have had te
struggle with many hardships and have suf
fered many reverses, but they have gained
the confidence or the natives and learned a
little of their difficult language. One of the
three missionaries at Bethel was drowned
but the ethers courageously stuck te thelr
pests aed built a school house though unfa
miliar with tools.

The Esquimaux et Alaska are aaid te be far
superior te the Indians, both physically and
mentally, and much mere ready te adept the
ways of civilization, There are wide points
of difference between them and the Esqui
maux or Greenland, but in general character
they resemble tbein and when civilized and
Christianized will make geed cltizena. They
are adapted by nature te aid la the develop
