ROBERT ROSS, MARTYR.
l!y ita desparatiou in s Hiking, even
through murder, to perpetuate itself in
power the Murphy regimt in Trov hag
not only overreached itself, but it has
umuiitakably tout nu unexpected i in
ptus to tii whole cum of electoral
reform. It has ovarrotched itself for
the reason that. Although upon the
blood stained face of the manufactured
returns, it has apparently succeeded iu
ltOtiDft its man, it has cams 1 such a
recoil in public sentiment that future
victory will be for many years im
possible. The CODTOoaJioD next May 8,
of a convention for th nvitionof Now
York's state constitution, in which
body the RtpnbHoam will have
thirty five majority, will undoubt
edly witness a atrong concentration
of sentiment in favor of Vttpl for the
permanent eradication of IfnrpayUm'i
legislative irrougholda Under the
preseut constitution New York's priu
cipal cities are practically governed
directly by the legislature, throu -h t'ae
obeoieta tpecial ohartar system which
has proved mob a nuUanoe wherever
adopted. Thus it has "een possible for
raunicipal boss-e like Edward Murphy
in Troy, Rlobard Crakor In New York
and William Sbtahan lnBafflo,tbronga
complacent governor and ecqutoeoent
Mtmbere of usaembly to "se: op'' tue
various boardi of municipal goveru
ment and the varions kawa relatia; to
that government, iu such it in toner ae
to i reclaie tne incoeai of any ordinary
opposition Like MUcrapslOM :;am--ettrs
they have m irked the cards and
reviewed the ban !s dealt to their op
ponents Until the latter simply found it
impossible to maiutaiu a lUCOiUful
counter play.
For st score of years, in the city of
Troy, this thin went ou with such un
erring prrcisiou on the part of tin con
trolling forces that honest citizenship
grew discouraged and. after repeated
proof of the apparent futility of its
warfare, had well-niga settled down
Into a condition of unfruitful apathy.
Similar failure was encountered by
civic reformers in 13 llTtlo, Albany and
Brooklyn; wbi'.e Taminauy-ridden
Gotham threw out bulwarks of ada
mant in defenca of iti vicious
rule. Then came the elections of
last November, with their over
whelming Republic in reaction. And
when it was seen that th constitutional
convention wouil not be converted by
Hill, Murphy and their agsuts, into a
frightful mechanism for the forging of
new political fetters, bat instead be
unexpectedly domintted by reputable
an 1 intelligent civilians, bant sdely
upon restoring and protecting muaici
ptt liberty, there came new hope an 1
cheer and stimnini to the friends of
frauclate purification and they girded
themselves anew for further battle
against bosiism. This w is the condi
tion of hopefulness which preceded last
Tuesday's election in Troy. It was in
this spirit of revived enthusiasm that
reputable Troj in citizens, having be
fore them the ennoaraginz leuon of
sheehan's Overthrow In Bafftlo, Bs
McLaughlin's reverse in Brooklyn and
John Y. McKane'a downfall in Graves
end, resolved onc more to concentrate
their energies upon th j Murphy mach
ine, scarcely hoping for victory, bat
resolved, if defeated, to leave evi lences
of their hgtit.
In thin rernwintf what an alrealy
familiar facts it Is Th-: Trihi.'xk'h aim
to show that the election of Murphy's
man, Molloy. ie one of those dubious
victories tbat cost more than a ilOSlfl
defeats. What will be its intlienes
upon tbe May conetitntional con
vention'; Will it not redonbl-i tbe zial
with which that notable body -notable
in Its membership, notable in its oppor
tunity nnil doutily notable in its
promise of far-reaching good results -will
undertake its weighty task'.' Will
it not in every state add str-mgtn to tbe
growing demand for a purr ballot and
for an honest comil ! Unless wu greatly
err in our interpretation of tin touipir
of the plain people, of those men who
yet believe in government by a fair
majority, and who await only the pro
per signal to tly at that government's
despollers, the thousands of sorrowing
Trojans who last Friday followed to its
tomb the body of Robert Itossan I, at the
side of his untimely grave plaoed across
his coffin tbe suggestive word "Mar
tyr," were not wrong in their defini
tion, were not wrong In their implied
prophecy, whose fulfilment will be the
avenging death of bossiim as a muni
cipal evil.

Perhaps it's because they run their

Jackson were superseded by 1,331 votes
for Grow, a gain of 49 783 per cent.
Berks comes third with it gain of 40.815
per cent., Columbia fourth with a cain
of 44.170 per cont., nnd little Piko fifth
with a gain of 119. 440 percent. Lu
zerne county Is fifteenth with n gain of
98 901 per cent., nnd Lackawanna
twenty-second with again of 11.890
per cent., her vote for Jackson, 11,988,
having been increased to 12.499 for
Grow.
It has been suggested that a fairer
bnsis of computation wonld have been
to have given the banner to the county
showiuir the largest apparent Repub
lican gain, Up .-i such a basis Luz into
and Laokawanna would both have
ranked much higher in the lisr, But
this was not tbe off ir made, nor would
it have been more satisfying, siuee it
would have rewarded not a real Repub
lican gain so much as a Domocratic
falling off Those Democrats who
were too much disguitel to vote would
tl;uj have cut a larger figure in the
award than Republican converts. Up
on the whole, it is gratifying to eee
that the largest real gains have in every
instance been male in Democratic
strongholds. That is where gains
ccunt.
In the heath, last week, of John
Torrey. Wayne county lost it public
spirited citizen, of ripe experience, lib
eral views aud untiring activity. Mr.
Torroy belonged to n family noted for
its energy, ehiewdness and enterprise ,
but bis own successful career honestly
gave it additional Known.
Mu. Ci.evki.ami is fortunate In the
selection of John 11 Mullin for the
filtaton pottmastership Prominent
in business, mi ex-burgess, oue of the
foremost factors of the PitUtOO lire
department, and for many years its
chief, Mr. Mullin brings to his new
, 00 well-baliucedexperiencs and the
ireneral con ti lance of the public. Since
the fortunes of war rsnder the selection
of a Democrat inevitable, we can think
of no Democrat better tilted for the
trust.
To CROAK BBS each new estimate of
Scr, niton real estate values is the high
water mark. MeauwhiU, those values
climb incessantly upward, and Soran
tou, generally, climbs upward with
them. But, then, Borauton always
was an nufcrtuuatd city for the croak
ers.
And then bo asks, "Is an income tax
any more constitution u now than
when it was n measure of the Repub
lican party?''
Hut If you think that is the full msns-
litu or ins temerity, llston to this:
'Tiii' Republicans could plead, at least,
the emergency of it great war, and the
loss of revenues from Imports because
of tho heavy decline of foreign trade.
No Mich plea can be made now. A
tariff for revenue, with moderate ex
ciso taxes on whisky and tonaceo,
would provide amply for all expendi
tures of the government, without nny
need to resort to nu extraordinary and
odious mode of taxation which lies
uuder tho condemnation of the Demo
crntlc party. "
If wo really thought tn Record oli-
tor wanted n direct reply to these in
terrogatory exclamations of dissent . if
we. indeed, fancied ho was an honest
seeker after truth, we Hhoulil have it
on our pin's tongue to give htm the
light that ho now pretends to grope
for. Wo should, In that event, tell
him that the present "spirit of the
Democracy" is essentially the spirit of
Arteuua Ward when he wanted to
crush out the cruel rebellion if it sac
rlfloed nil his wife's relations. Wo
should remind him that that spirit is
eagerly solicitous to put the burdens
of taxation on the other fellow and to
devote Its timo iu spending the pro
ceeds thereof. But we suspect llio
knows this already, and, like any hon
est iirin. Is as time i disgusted witn it
as bo dare bo while under salary to ex
pound Democracy's doctrines.
Vicarious taxation is a fertile factor
iu Democratic economics.
THE BANNER COUNTY.
Under the terms of a circular issued
Feb. 2 by the campaign committee of
the Young R 'publicans, of I'hiladel
phis, Thomas L. Hicks, chairman, a
handsome silk banner was offered to
the Republican committee of the
county showing the largest percentage
of votes tor Mr. Grow, comparison to
be made upon the vote cast last No
vember for Colonel Jackson. Tne for
tunate county, as we learn from a seo
oud circular, is rock-ribbed Northamp
ton, the home of that curious economic
enigma, Howard Mutchler.
This county last fall oast 3.761 votos
for Jackson, while last month's vote for
Grow rose to 6,354, a gain of 6d 944 por
eent. The next best showing was made
by Democratic, Elk, where UW votes for
THE TINKERED TARIFF.
Secretary Carlisle estimates that the
W ilson bill as it emerges fr mi the S m
ate will produce between 470,00),000
and $484 000.000 of annnal reveuue
Tne Wilsou bill as it left tbe bouse
would, as he figured it, have raise ! only
1429, 000. 000. A conservative ostimato
of the average auuu tl expenses of the
national gjvern,;i places tbem at
4),OOJ.0OO Supposing, then, that iu
roun 1 figures, the senate bill meets
those expenses, the ijuestion naturally
arises, how has the sen it's increase 1
the revenue contemplated by the Wil
son bill from. say. $11000 003, which
was approximately the amount as the
bill left the house, to I430.000.0X), as it
stands today'.' Where an 1 Uotfdidit
get the additional 150,000,00)1
To begin with, the imposition of i
cent and one-fifth duty ou raw and re
lined eusar will, at one blow, produee
$4'2 000,000 of new revenu-, since in
the bouse bill sugar was placed on the
free list. It will, In fact, do mDre thin
tbis. It will entrench the Htremsye
sugar trust so firmly iu its present
monopoly of the Aiueriotn sugar rettn
ing industry, under tie alvantageits
Urge surplus capital gives it in paying
the duty on the raw imported material,
that consnmrs may reasonably expect
the retail price of sugar to advanse
two cents per pound, should this senate
bill become a law. This would enable
the sugar trust to reap even more than
88 per cent, annual profit on its actual
capital, as it dil last year, besides
placing au enormous burden upon the
working man bv reason of the increas
ed cost of n prime hooseholl neces
sity.
For the other ifT.O'iO.OOO of extra rev
etme the senate tariff bill looks chiefly
to increased importations under it low
tariff That Is to sey, by way of Illus
tration, if imports, under a 17 per cent,
tariff are, let us snppose, $500,000 000,
giving us $J3 000,000 in gross revenue,
by lowering the tariff to 'JO pr cent,
the imports (inight inoreas-i to $1,200 -000.000,
thereby giving us IJD.OOO.OOO
uro.ss revenue, whereby, according to
D-mocratio belief, we should be $15,
000,000 the gainer. Tbe errooeoasnesi
of this reasoning consists in the suppo
sition thit we, as a nation, could alf rd
to have our importations doubled or
trebled, slnoe every extra dollar tlins
sent out of the country in payment for
foreign rnsdo goods would be a dollar
subtracted from profitable homo oircu
latino, from wage-pyiug home useful
ns.
Thus, in either view, the Democratic,
senate tdll is false and hurtful. True,
the reconstructed bill is better than the
original Wilson bill in som minor p ir
(Ionian It is also n better revenue
producer, and to that extent more
strictly conforms with the Democratic
party's Chieago plntfnrm pledge. Bnt
it is unpardonably vicloustn Its thrust
ing of the heavy burden of taxitiou
upon the laboring classes, whose sugar
is made one-third more expensive in
ordT that a corpornte trust which con
tributed largely to the Democratic
campaign fund, might multiply Its in
ordinate profits by two. And it is fun
damentally wrong in Its assumption
that American c.oiisnmsrs can boy
rneap ggiion imporioQ goooe niter tne
cessation of home industry shall have
them no money with to do the purchas
ing Dither contention would condemn it.
Both combined brand it as ulmoit
madly ruinous and unwise.
PlRUAPa it is due to tbe proverbial
close listedness of Wllkes-Dsrreans
that they havo not yet entered a bid
lor the Jackson Corbett prizi tight.
Tlisy appear to have every other re
quisite. Including a district attorney
who never bears of pugilistic events
until afterward ; police who are will
lie, in return for rree admission, to
offloiate as bottle holders, referees or
masters of ceremonies ; and it gynina
sium in the center or tne city wnorom
tiits manly art proceeds without hint of
interruption, even to "mills" that, iu
the matter of gore, would push an
abattoir hard for honors.
It is not easy to seo what immediate
goo 1 can come from a monotonous
series of journalistic curtain lectures,
apparently addressed to uiombers of
select council upon the assumption that
they do uot kuow their duty and are
Unwilling to learn We do not, our
selves, believe that snch nu assumption,
laying aBide the question of its pro
priety, is even half-way correct,
It is woitTH noting that while there
are Democratic factions of all creeds,
beliefs, sizes and kinds, eachstruggling
to have the uppermost voice In the regu
latiou of government, tbere is only one
Republican party and only oue view to
be taken of its credentials. It wants u
protected currency, a protected home
market, a protected home wage, a pro
Ucted loyal veteran, a protected ballot
and an houest count.
-
It WOULD bo a blow at every wage
earner to put a tariff on sugar, because
usrar is one of the necessaries that we
do not produce in competing quantities
at home. But even thi.s blow would b--endurable,
if the Democratic tariff
tinkers would put ndequate protection
on work and wages.
Secretary Baknakp, of the Grand
Usaonio lodge of Illinois, says plainly

she is a Mason. If this, from the Pop

superbly than to do the smallest thing
indifferently, There Is no class of per

impossible for a musician of merit to

who sings or plays feels perfectly free

wicked aud ungenerous.

The music nt Elm Park hsa been the
joy of the whole city. Prof. Carter
has been an inspiration to everybody :
his playing is superb. There is a pa
thos and a tenderness in bis execntion
that lifta his auditors nbove the sordid
and temporal and places them in rap
port with higher and better thoughts.
A (treat character Is altvnvs eccentric
and peculiar. The man who says the
right thing, who acts with perfect pro
priety at all times, who is restful in bis
work and satisfactory to ever v body, is
never a reformer or a neniue.

musician, is not a financier or a diplo

Carter. The best of feeling exists be

listen to his recitals are evidence that

love music. It is a pleasure to note
that his engaureuient nt the Elm Park
church prouiises to be n p rmanent
