SECUET MARRIAGES.
From its ntj nature, tt ceremonial
of marriage is intend I m a testimonial
of publicity. Tht whole tenor ami
purport of the legal raatflotioM t"
which this ceremonial is surrounded
j:o to preserve it from the aocial MB'
Kers of secrecy, it requires :ie ex
tended argument to prove that lb p so
cial purity of tho home, the houor ami
self-respect of the family and the pros
ervation, unsullied, Of all those intlu
eneaa which grow out of reputable ilo
meatioity, are inseparably allied to the
widest frHiiknes In the announcement
of the marriage contract, The lus
inent that subterfnga is accepted as
optional, the moment that laws rtqulr
ius the registration uf vital statistics
permit tho concealment at will of otii
olal laws, tiii moment ministers or
magistrates lend themselves without
reluctance to this couspiri.-y of unri
tal silence, that mom nt grav danger
begins to threaten the American home.
Secret marriages uuy oocaaionally end
happily, and there may, in individual
instances, be sotn.) plausibility in the
excuses eOred for the veiling of u
ceremony of which ::ono should bj
ashamed. But, aa a general rale, ap
plying to an overwhelming majority of
cases, concealment is wrong an i should
te bitterly opposed.
We do not envy the feelings of tho
.Jfew York clergyman who pertnltte I
tho wily tongue of Colonel Breckiu
ridge to beguile lim into pronouncing,
in secrecy, the service which, on April
29 of last year, made that deceptive
Kentnckian for the second time a boa
band at the very period when, as shown
by sworn testimony, he was sustaining
relations of unutterable dishonor with
a woman whom the law did not r?coj
r.!z'; a woman whom Breckinridge bad

tery and ill-foreboding, plays no part
in the trial of Miss Pollard for dam

conscience of its clerical factor; and it
Fervss a useful purpose in renewing at
tention to a fruitful source of social
scandal, sorrow and wrong.
We hear mtie'i nowadays about the
need of uniform legislation relating to
marriage and divorce. But here is an
evil which tha law wholly overlooks ;
an evil which has caused more suffer
ing, more disappointment and more
provocation to divorce and crime
than any othar single feature in this
whole category. The plain teaching of
common sene, that bo who is uwilling
to let tho world know of his choico of
a wife, should have no right to the le
e;i designation of a husband, ought to bl
Hullident to abolish the secret mar
riage. But it appir.ntly is not. This
form of romance is so far from dimin
ishing that it is steadily oa the in
crease; and complacent legislatures
give it tho benefit of a quasi endow
ment by passing laws governing the
registration of marriages which have
all the elasticity of India rubber in
A 11311st. If reform ever overtakes so
cial custom in this important matter,
it ought not to pain ) this side a com
plete revision of the statutes governing
vital statistics.

One of thoae practical beneficences
that deserve grateful publicity has just
been instituted by , the Lehigh and
Wilkes-Burrs Coal company in the re
mission of rent in behalf of those of its
tenant miners upon whom the slack
times have pressed most heavily. Ac
tions like this are open to abuse, thanks
to dtmsgOgOSS who trade in industrial
discontent ; bnt to the msjsrity of sensi
bl people such kindnesses appeal with
telling force, nor is anything lost by
them in the end.

SENATORIAL REFORM.
In connection with the favorable re
port by tho honso committee of the
proposition to elect United HUtoi senn
tors by direct popular vote it is perti
nent to suigest that nomr hotter mrans
than any now in vogue be employed to
mnke the popular vote an honest vote.
The congress which pusSM an act re
pealing fedorsl supervision of federal
elections, thus tacitly inviting the
fradnlent elements to do their worst,
is hardly tho congress to propose a pop
ular olcclion of senators and then ex
pect the reputable citizenship of the
northern states to f ill heartily in with
the scheme. Genuine electoral reform
does not flow from such a source.
There is nnother question of equity,
in connection with this proposition to
change the method of electing sena
tors. It is one which even radical re
formers do not urge with much seri
ousness, and yet it is ono of growing
importance. Occasionally some east
ern newspaper or speaker calls fit
ful attention to the fact that n
pocket borough" like Wyoming or
Nevada or Idaho has the same repre
sentation in tho. United States senate
that is accorded to Now York or Penn
sylvania. At iutervsls the proposi tion
to consolidate some of these alkali
deeerts recurs, is briefly debated and
indifferently dropped. But the inher
ent injustice of continuing such unfair
equality of representation must some
lay lead to more aggressive action ;
nd there is no better time to propose
this than at a time when the vaulting
greed of these western senatorial silver
barons is "holding up" the legislation
of tho entire natioa in an' uiicomcioii
able effort to extort free ooiuugt blackmail.
Tho net result of the present agita
tion for a change in tho method of
choosing senators will probably be nil.
Tho principal faults with tho prosiMit
lyitein are faults that would not bo
remedied by constitutional amend
ment. So long as the mediocre wealth
can buy its way to senatorial sinecures,
and dysp.'ptic deuiogogues command at
will tho support of disaffected agricul
turists, that long will there be Mends
and snnoynnOS in the upper chamber
of congress, let the system of election
be what it Will What is need ) I is a
revival of civic vigilance, and when
this It secured, It will matter little
what method is pursued, foi tin result
will be fully able to take oare of itself.

States is a civilised country, with the
pi saible exception of Stroudsbiirg.

THE LYNCHING INDUSTRY.
We remember recently to havo seen
a formidable compilation of statistics,
tho purport of which went to prove
that lyueiiinits la tcis country nre ab
normally ou the Increase and that tho
increase is not sectional but general.
Unfortunately these figures iiro not
nov at our command; Intone scarcely
cee.ls them to bo convinced that vigi
lante justice is nowadays nn uncom
monly common resort. Tho merest
glance at the news pages of our daily
teens will almost any day reveal graph
ic instances of tho substitution of mob
law for the orderly processes of the
courts, and a great majority of these
Instances will apparently bo without
visible provoc ition. There may of tea
be aggravating circumstances calcula
ted to Inflame tbo passions of the
lynchers, but not in one case in ten has
the regularly ordained procedure of the
law been siven a chance to vindicate
itseif. Without testimony and with
out trial, the law baa been voted inad
rquate, and in its place baa been rushed
forward the hot an d raeking passion of
an excited populace eager to shed hu
man blood.
This was done in Strondsburg the
other day, and it is done in perhap?
90 per cent, of all the other lynch-
ings of which there is contemporary
record. No citizen of Monroe county
cay fairly claim that the established
courts of that county have shown them
selves inadequ to to deal with crimi
nals lfke Puryear. Ttiere was no evi
dence to sustain the belief that if the
murderer of Ehlers had not been
strung up like a dog by ferocious and
unreasonable men he would have es
caped his deserved punishment through
legal qnibblo or ovasivo technicality.
To the bsnch of that judicial district
the peoplo of Stroudsburg, among oth
ers, had recently electel a fair an1,
conscientious jurist who would have
exercised every proper influence to the
end that strict justice might prevail.
Ortainly nothinir in the character of
Allen Craig justified the insult which
the citizens of Stroudsburg placid upon
him when they contemned his court
and substituted for it the impetuous
tribunal presided over by Judge
Lynch. Nor ii there such a lack of
talent in tho prosecuting officers of
Monroe county as to support the con
tention that Pttryear'l punishment by
a vengeful mob was thj only alterna
tive from his ignominious acquittal.
How, then, are w to account for the
increasing prevalence of the mad wish
to overthrow law and order whenever
consplrnons crime has been commit
ted? Am the people of this generation
moie excitable, impetnons and un
thinking than were their predecessors'.'
Has the advance of civilisation carried
with it a corresponding increase in the
American idcapacity for sober self
government? One does not like to be
lieve any r.uch thing. To do so would
bo to accept one of the fundamental
tenets of pessimists and to affix a pre
mium on general ignorance and stttl
qaated custom. Yet it is a rollout
fact that tiio "lynching bee" is a dis
tinctively Americin industry, which,
although other American industries
may droop and suspend under adverse
tariffs and sentimental scures, staadily
continues to declare bloody dividends
in glowing ghastliness and augmented
number. Wo do not pretend to ex
plain this hidous fact. We cannot
explain it. We can simply point to it

ONLY A PRETTY DREAM.
"Every on knows," writet our
friend Dr. D. II. Strong, "Hint tho
market valu of silver is less than its
colli villus . Bnt the silver dollar lias
a value ns a medium of sxchouge its
cuirencv value, 111 line which is iqual
to the currency value or any other dol
lar, It will Luy j iiut ns much Hour
and sugar as a gold dollar will buy.
As long, then, us no disOOUHt exists on
it in actual commercial relations, for
which the dollar It made and Died, to
maintain that as a olranUttng medium
it is hrlow p ir Is to confust its intrin
sic value with its currency value, or
iis valu ' as n circulating medium, And
to do this is simply to work in favor of
tile prejudice of the gold power, to tho
exclusion of silver us a money metal,"
This, by way of answer to TriBTniB
t'NF.'s objections to the Bland bill lnfl
tion.
0 suspect that our esteemed cor
respondent here admits rathor morn
than he Intended to admit. If there is
any clear Inference from his carefully
drawn distinction between "intrinsic
value" and "currency alue" it is thai
"currency value," or iu oth.r words,
the legal stamp of the government, is
'.ho ruling value. But it ths govern
ment stamp can make I I cents worth
of silver perform all the trade functions
that are performed, for instance, by
100 cents worth of gold, why use gold
at all? Why wasto so much precious
intrinsic vain when the mere stamp of
government will create all the value
needed in financial operations? Oar
friend's rule ought to work both ways,
If it bo urged as a measure of protec
tion against the gold power, it ought
also to deliver u-, in logic, if not in
fact, from tho equally obnoxious
mschirations of the silver power, and
put us finally upon the ground floor of
11 fiat currency of unlimited paper and
ink.
It is ono of the recurring fallacies
inherited from greenback days that
currency value is a thing altogether
independent of intrinsic value. We
readily recall hearing an earnest green
back frieud, gallant Colonel lieury Clay
Bradsby, once assail our juvenile ears
with the sophistry that a brick of sand
and mortar, stamped by tho govern
mntwith tho words "One dollar,"
would be every wbit as valuable for ali
practical purpos na an equally large
brick of pure cold, bearing the identi
cal impress. 1 ho colonel wassincero
in what ho said; and no doubt to prove
it, would, bad opportunity offered,
cheerfuliy have rejected the gold brick
in favor of the cube of dirt. But, the
colonel was an enthusiast. Knthusi
nsts do not control the world of com
merce. In the practical ranks of cold
and calculating business endeavor no
such cheerful martyrdom is encount
ered these prosaic days. Monoy must
have intrinsic as well as flat value or it
will bo contemptuously rejected! and
th" very fact that treasury notas based
originally on silver bnllion hadtobi
ri'deemsd by the secretary of tho treas
ury in hard dollars of glittering gold
proves that the fi it rrM.i mint ho velf
gated to the limbe ot pretty dreamt
among them a desire to do track work
which always acts as a stimulus to cy
cling in general.
The club has not deolded whether
they will bold the circuit meet later In
the season or not. It will all depend
upon the financial outoomeof the first
one. This decision of the club to hold
the first meet is received by the riders
with enthusiasm, and already th" good
