THt KtAl AIM.
Tbe aeeertioii that the uiiniitera of
Scrarjtoii couteuipUte h campaign of
ipiouHK aX'unt violators of the Sun
Jay law couveva only a verv uarrow
portion of tbe truth 1 1 ! the inteir
tiou of tbe orjjauuars of this Sunday
observance movement to give every
liquor denier mid every dealer in other
Mrttolfl heretofore accustomed to bo
fold ou Suudav a fair chance to volun
teer bi co-operation. Kepreseutnti va
of tbe movement will, we uuderitan I,
wait upon each dealer in the city,
place before bim the movement' ob
jects audiolicit bi active assistance in
sustaining law aud order. II will be
approached in a (entleuiauly fmhiou,
aud will be treated tis a gentleman,
who ha all a gtntlentaa'. int-rest lu
tbe maintenance of law and in the
prevalence of order. And in the great
mjonty of cae we believe that tins
courteous aud conciliatory method will
not fail la tbe desired result.
But if there ahoutd be recalcitrant;
if the theory be false that all dealer in
thi vicinity are public spirited gentle
men aud citiz u. it is no doubt pos
sible that more stringent methods will
be utilized in bringing such persons to
book. We do uot know how this is
We are uot Muuiwig to su?ak, in de
tail, for tbe Sunday observance league.
Out on general principle it looks reas
onable and plautlble to uppj. that
if rogues defy the Uw and make light
of the effort at law-enforcement, there
will be provision for anabuu ltut de
nioustratiou that this sentiment in be
half of an orderly Sabbath i no: a
passing fancy, fetich or fad, bit a
strong, resolute and siucere convic
tion, amply backed by practical ma
chinery for the detection of pjrsitnt
crime and for the puuuhmeut of defi
ant criminal.
Tbe print tvbiotl wedejire to impha
size is that it wiil uot do for reputable
dealers to classify themselves with,
dealer who giory in Sun lay desecra
tion aud in the cultivation of social
disorder. There is no spirit of miiice,
envy, spite or hate behind thi effort to
close tbe saloon doors during hour
when tbe sale of intoxicants is legally
prohibited, aud to prevent, in other di
rections, disrespect for tbe laws of tbe
commonwealth. No person, when
nsked to join hands with the move
ment's promoters, should feel that the
invitation involves a slur It does uot.
It is simply the necessary start to a re
form that must come some day, and
that if it doesn't come along amicable
and harmouioua lines may come along
lines surcharged with trouble,
If Mk. CVTSIAJD bad detired to sus
tain his former rpntation for courage
and back bone, be should have vetoed
the Bland inflation bill witbin ten sec
inda after its delivery at the white
bouse. His present procrastination is
one of tbe noticeable causes of con
tinued business uncertainty.

JfcRHY AND THt BIG GUN.
There has recently been much ado in
tbe press about theiuoustei gun which,
Wedneeday at the Indian Head
government proving ground, was test
ed in the presence of the vice-president
of the United States, three or four cab
inet officers, two score foreign totoia
tera, a dozen senators, four score rep
resentatives, aevural generals and vari
one other notabilities The gun is de
signed to weigh U1) tons, have a Ill-inch
rifled bore, hold 500 pounds of powder,
and send a 120u-puund nitro-glyoerlne
shell thirteen mile with snob a veloci
ty a to pierce the thickest armor of
the biggest ironclad that lliats. At
the official teat the gun waa discharged
two times, each time at a 19 inch H ir
veyized armor plate at a distance of
200 yards, and each time the massive
plate was literally pulverized, while
the detonation and recoil were mil to
resemble the rumbling of an earth
quake, accentuated by deafening thuu
der Taking all the details into consider
atlou this mammoth weapon of batch
cry was shown by the test to mark the
very highest aobievomeut uf the human
intellect, aud tbe skilled humm hand
lu the planning and In the execution of
marvelous mechanisms for the slaugh
ter of mankind. In it the American
nation has a now claim to fame, a now
"passport to pre-eminence, a new title
deed to the dread and upprehensiun of
lees equipped powers entertaining the
remotest expectation of belligerent in
teutiona. Tbe American eagle, in view
of thi great triumph, is entitled to
flap his wing with an extra audacity,
and that proud emblem of human free
dom, the starry banner of the brave, is
fully justified in letting out a new fold
and in adding, if possible, a eaucier
swirl and untie.
Yet lu spite of all this great glory,
Kepn-aentative Jeremiah Kimpsou, of
Medicine Lodge, the sock less hero of
the Kansas Populiatio revolt, is not at
is tied. He has begun to Interrogate.
He persists in asking troublesome ques
tions. He want! to know what the big
gan C0t; and the gun -boomers reply,
$05,000. He wauts to know, next, the
cost of each loud of powder aud shell ;
and here lie- meets with the iuforma
Hon that it is $850, or the equal of the
daily wages paid by various municipal
relief boards to 850 starving men. Then
ho desires to ascertain whether there is
any present war or uny near prospect
of war which would justify tuts gov
eminent In Investing 6fi 0 10 In a now
useless cannon, when there Isn't tnongh

respectable postage stamp, and in

ery, on an afternoon's oampalgn

a harmless steel plate.
Aud we really think, to be frank,
that Jerry bus rather the best of the
argument.

THE LIGHT HHOBl M.
Recognizing that the proposition of
President v. W. ttoranton to sell to
the city of Scranton the plant and good
will of the Scranton Light, Heat aud
Power company for fjU.UJJ in cash and
the assumption of the company's out
standing bond obligations involves an
interesting municipal question, of which
there should be a general discussion,
Tilt TlttBt k proposes to present each
day one or more expressions on this
subject by leading eitistus, A cordial
invitation is extended to all who have
opinions iu the premises to state them
briefly, for which purpose our columns
are most cordially thrown open.
The lirst Scrantouiau to grant an
authorize! interview on this question
w Mayor William L Connell, His
views are a follows: "1 am iu favor of
the city owning its own elect'ic light
plant. As regards, however. th pro
position made bv the Scranton Light,
Meat and Power company to the city
there are several dttailj to b looked
into. Weshoul 1 lirst know accurately
whether or uot the coat of maintaining
our own plant would be Use tbau the
present rental imid by the city for light
mg purposes It would, therefore, neces
sitate the employment of an expert
electrician to go over the plant care
fully and make a report a to its de
sirability. We would also require a
statement from the Scranton Light,
Hsat and I'owsr company as to the cost
of maintenance for the entire plant.
If, after careful investigation, it would
seem to be a measure of economy for
the city to operate its owu lighting
station, it would be uecessary to go be
fore) tbe people and secure their ap
proval for the bonding of the city to
raise money for this improvement."

Lufio KuSKUKiiY tuay occasionally be
Indiscreet in his speeches; but it wiil
take something more than an unan
tnenticated cable rumor to make bis
friends believe him capable of so glar

gagement with a princess of the reign
itig lory family.
.
THE REAL TROUBLE.
Commenting upon the rscotit scoring
given by Judge Edwards to the defec
tive-eyel constabulary of Lackawanna
couuty the Wilkes-Barre Record says
very truly "It is a notorious fact that
tbe liquor law Is violated iu nearly
every city, town and borough in tbe
stat, and yet the men whose duty it is
to rep irt these violations completely
and contemptuously ignore that duty.
Right here in this city, under the
shadow of the court hous--, the law is
violated every Sunday In the year with
perfect impunity. It is only natural
to presume that what goes on iu
Wilkes-1 1 i.- and Pittiton goes on in
other localities. And yet these sapient
constables deliberately close their eyes
to these violations of the law and have
the temerity to come into court and
sndeaTOf lo close theeyai of the judge
also. The whole constable system is a
miserable failure in this leaped and
the people are heartily sick und tired
of it. "
Much tbe worst feature of this ays
teiu is that It encourage violations of
the law In rural localities where the
agencies of law enforcement aa a rule
are primitive and inadequate. In the
large cities, Inw and order leagues,
mlnisteral associations, and a Hsnti
meiit of law observance spurred on by
numerous, agendo of progresr and re
form combine to render violators of the
law mora or less clroumipsct, Hut in
the little boroughs und towns, an 1 es
pecially iu tbe townships, when tbe
constable fail to do their duly, the
Whole machinery of justice falls apart
and It. dividual OltilSUI have little or
no io drees
Tbe wliolo amouut of it is that Hie
liquor power is getting too couvplcu
ou in politics, and nee Is to be taught
a lesson. Men who engage In the man
ufacture or sale of Intoxicants should
be content to pursue their owu bmi
DSSS as a business, ami should not Seek,
by combination and varied nrtifljei, to
exert a controlling iiillueuce in purely
political affair. We in thi section of
the atate have n I lit liquor clement
do rather more than Ita customary
amount of interfering with the prima
rive and the convention". It h is In
come so common a sight that when any
citizen protests against it, be is de
nominated a purist or a crank nnd
promptly laughed down, a this ta in
tier we have failed to keep abreast of
the general aentiuint which is neon
initiating against liquor-soaked politics
But some of the ihrjirder brewers and
retailer themselves have scented the
coming storm aud, like the Reichards,
of Wilkos-Barre, and the Wlno aud
Spirit Dealers' Gazette in New York,
they hare lifted a warning voice against
tbe neglect of the saloou business for
politics, or the unking of politics a sa
loon business.

la true, but the things ut which they talk
are but effects. The OBUie of the effects is
the putridity of politic?, with its entail of
