SCRANTON. MARCH BO, I8M.

No Respecter of Persons.
Iu its zeal to criticize Scrauton and
Scrantonians, toe Wilkog-lSarrs Rsoord
ins tieu led, possibly by InadsQiuta
reports, into soma very ill-tempered
ai:d unjust stricture with rsferencti to
the local arrests of Uev Mr. uud Mrs.
Riot, the evangelists. We iuote por
tions of the Record's outburst, In ordsr
thu more effectually to exhibit Us in
trinsic anftirnau
There must he queer law up in Bcrantou
when tuirlv policemen cm bully nnd hur
ras an Inoffensive aud frlsndlsss woman
because the preaches the iiel of Christ.
There is strange Inconsistency Inthecoutse
juirsufU toward thin woman by k!aor
Connell aud his action during tii .wills
revival iu HcrMton tabernacle some time
ago. Ou that occasion tho mayor Issued a
proclamation eommandlng incorrect: the
proclamation merely requested this; every
business man in the city to olOM hi" doors
Upon u certain day lU order that the ieo
I!e might have au opportunity to attend
the meeting. Tbe proclamation era i;eu
eruhy complied with, alt'ioiigb many of
the merchant! were of different religious
beliefs from that of Bet. B Fay Mill
Now, however, wheu u unknown man
uud woman appeal upon the streets to
preach the same gospel, not so eloqueutly,
no: so learnedly, perhaps, as tbi great re
vivalist, but in a way that the poor aud
lowly can nnderstauJ, they are get upou
by police officers aud hustled off to the
station house iik" common criminal
A moment later, after remarking titat
wiieu Mr. and Mrs. Uic- preached In
WilkSS-Btrre the;r meatingi were qui
et and peaceable, the Record contin
ues: Tbey were not treated as mountebanks
and fakirs because 'hey dared to utter
tbe diviue truths of the Bible upon the
public streets. They were not dragged to
ihe lockup, wbilo the druukaia and the
blasphemer waa allowed to defile streets
with his offensive pretence. Up in Scran
ton, However, it is different. Tne authori
ties of that city seem to have forgotten
that the Savior of mankind did tot seek
th, magnificent temple of the Jews when
He begau His earthly mlsaioo, They evi
dently fall to ri-coiiect that He weat, uot
among the rich and powerful, but ainoug
the pour aud lowly, luculcatiug the divine
trains of L'htistiauity along the highways
and byways. He gathered about Him :ue
common "people, and out under the blue
skies taught tbein the lesson of salvation.
Toe pior street evangelist, Wbo tries to
follow conscientiously in the footateps of
the Master: who brings words ..if hope to
the poor au 1 the friendless who are out of
place in the cushioned pewi of our fash
ionable churches, should be accorded re
spectful consideration iu every Christian
community, but the Pharisee exists now,
lis lie did eighteen hundred years ago, aod
nowhere has be made himself so offensive
ly manifesr. as iu the city of Scraaton dur
ing the past week.
What are tlie facts in this eatti As
d indued at the hearings they are
bri-tiy these : Mr. an 1 Mrs Rice one
week ago, at nightfall, without having
nski-d for a permit, attempted to hold
it street meeting at Wyoming and
Lackawanna avenue?. A crowd col
lected, blockading this, the busiest
corner cf the city. Officer Feeney asked
Mr. Rice not to cause this blocksd, it
being a clear violation of a city ordi
nance. Mr. Rice refused to desist from
his purposed demonstration. OfQoet
Ft-eney teen placed him nad;r arrest,
the prisoner struggling, resisting and
making threats Mayor Cmnsll at
or.ee accorded him a private hearing,
at which Mr, Rica, in response to a
gentlemanly explanation by the mayor
of the ordinance and the officer's duty
in tbe premises, bluiteringiy bale de
fiance to the mayor, the chief-of-police
stsd the whole city governrasnt. He
was then remanded for a further hear
ing, whereupon Mrs. Uice urged him
to go to jail, saying she would con
tinue th) meetings The mayor in
formed her that he would gladly
give her a prmit and detail a spsc
ial r.ffiVr to guard the meetings
provided she would eeUct a placo that
would not interfere with tne public.
He even arranged with I'ostiuasttr
Vandling to enable Mrs Rice to speak
from the Linden street stepi to the niw
federal building and offered her the
protection of an officer, but sue refnsed
both offers, declaring she would pak
"when she please), where she pleased
and at what time she pleased. '' Tbe
eul sequent arrests. have been made iu
pursuance of this wilful !. ,!.- nee
of the law, and u nder the right of 'he
law of 1S9 which rjrmits a police of
ficer to arrest, without warrant, upon
eight any violator of municipal ordi
nances or person guilty of a misdemea
nor. The attitude of both Mr ami
Mrs. Rice throughout has boen one of
superiority to the law and of the deli -auce
to the law's loeal offinors. It him
not at any point been reasonable, con
ciliatory, humble or croditablo.
In tho case of Harker vs. the com
monwealth, appealed from Allegheny
county, the snpreme court of Pennsyl
vania at the May term, 1888, affirmed
the decision of the lower court as fol
lows. ' The streetH are common high
ways, designed for the use of tho pub
lic in passing and repassing, and in
such temporary occupancy as is inci
dental to the exercise of these rights
or necessarily connected with them.
No one has a right to obstruct a public
street by collecting therein a large ni
aemblage of men or buys for the pur
pose of addreising them ,tn 'violent,
loud and indecent languago.' The
common higliway.4 were designed for
no audi pnrpose. If the purposes of
Die meeting be lawful, a suitable place
can bs obtained for it, without ob
tructingthe public in their undoubted
right of passing along their own high
way. The liberty of speech does not
require that the clear legal rights of
the whole community ahull bo violated.
The freedom of the press in as well
deserving protection as the liberty of
peech; but no one, in bis wildest en
thusiasm in favor of the former, has
claimed tbe right to establish printing
presses in the public streets. One of
Hoe printing presses would certainly
do as effectual in collecting a crowd an
the violent harangues described iu
his indictment. The nuisance, in the
one cage, would be quite rospjctable in
its nature und objects compared with
the demoralising character of theothsr.
Dutboth are prohibited by law, us in
fractions of the public right of pas
sage." This decision applies, directly to the
case in question, ami is a sweeping re
buke to that form of public propa
ganda which sels itself upon a pedestal
of contempt for regularly enacted law
and regularly ordained authority. The
liublic streets are the property of the
public, held in trust by the city in or
der that the lights of their owners, the
people, may be preserved mid. protected.
The equal rights ipoken of in the con
stitution of the United Stat"s do not
in can a rlht to one man which, when
iutemperately prtslstsd in, becomes an
injustice to any other man. The lsson
of this present case is of widespread
application ami should receive atteu
tire study.
Wo dislike to believe that the Chris
tian editor of tho Record, or its two
Christian proprietors, havo been led by
the friendly rivalry existing between
the tWO cities to indulge iu those uu
Obaritnble aud whoilv unwarranted re
marks. Wo prefer to believe that the
itecord has been misinformed ; that it
has not been toldTho difftreuoe be
tween holding orderly religious wor
ship iu a large building specially sot
apart for that purpose, aud holding
mob like convocations iu the middle of
the street, thereby blockading trafUc,
causing great annoyance to business
men and pedestrians and deliberately
violating a plain city ordinance.
The duty of Mayor Counell In this
case has not been a pleasant duty and
he lias certainly not courted tho notori
ety connected with it. But uuleas we
can establish the princ.ple iu equity
that that which is law for one class is
uot law for anothtr; uulsss we can iu
vest in our mayor the power to sus
pend, distort or spam specific enact
ments of the city councils at will, he is
to be commended and sustained iu his
courio by all who believe in uniform
and impartial law enforcement, Mayor
Connell and the city officials had no
quarrel with Mr and Mrs. Kice because
they are por, because they "preach the
gospel to the lowly or because they do
not worship in line temples and amid
luxurious surrounding. What tbey
ask and what they shall insist upon is
obedience to the plain law of tho city
as it is laid dowu in the ordiuance
book; and if wo rend aright the story
of the Divine teacher of N'jzireiu, lie,
too, counselled this.

It is CHARGZO in Philadelphia that
tbe recent adverse report of couueils
against a municipal electric light
plant was due to corrupt practices,
t-uch a charge will not be duplicated
here. The question ii one which the
ptople will themselves discues aud
settle, and there will be no crookedness
about it.
Why. SHOULD private enterprise he

Mr. Cleveland's Veto.
Between the lines of tiio president's
Utest message can bo read a direct re
Section of the halting uncertainty and
vacillation that have characterized! ill
tho recent acts of this Democratic ad
ministration. For the first time in
f rover Cleveland's history he is hum
ble. apologetio and deprecatory. Oae
looks in vain for the bold, clear note
which oao wag his pride and boast,
lime and trial and failure aloug many
lines have softened his platitudes,
weakened his woutod obstinacy aud
bent even his groat iinperiousness to
.ue force of circumstances. He is no
longer a demigod, bnt, dethroned and
humiliated, he has become the mere
commonplace man that he was until
quixotic flittery swelled his conceit
aud puffed out ths msasure of hi s
vanity.
We say this ell the more frankly be
cause Mr Cleveland, in the gist and
burden of his inesgag, has stated vir
tually the case which any honest man
would have stated whose eyes had not
been blinded by the free silver fallacy.
In its general purport the message Is
beyond reprosch, it is In the lame and
halting manner in which its conclusions
havo been reached that we read plain
signs of the idol's downfall and are
permitted to traco the subsidence of the
Cleveland fad. No similur docutneut
ever bore more conspicuously the
marks cf compromise, struggle and
concession. From the first word to the
last it is a aerial story of hedging, trim
mlng and pallutory explanation; ail
the mora glaring hecauss wholly un
necessary. For if ever there were a OS nil which
an executive might b) permitted to
plead with ringing and resonant cm
nhnsis; if eter there wers n cause
which might jiiatify the swift direct
uesi of a magnificent imperialism that
cause is the oame of a sound and honest
dollar. The Riand bill to ootn the
seigniorsgs wai in conception, growth
and routumpUted tffeot a bill to open
the flood gates and to let In the deluge,
it was part of as groat a conspiracy as
ever threatened our mtlonal credit; a
conspiracy which to enrich its factors
aud abettors would not scruple to rob
open haudedly all the remainder of our
people.
Instead of taking the full legal limit
to formulate his iinpoUnt dissent; a
president of courage ami stamina
would have sent luck his veto in the
twinkling of an cy.
While no oxi win be so injoit m to
believe that politics has had auvthlng
to do with the Druckinridga scandal, it
cannot bo denied that tho Cleveland
administration sniTr.s by reason there
of. Coming alter so ranny previous
evidenttM of tho auplosfint prominence
of the Coufedorute brigadier spirit in
administration circles, this newest ex
hibition of the buduvss of one con
spicioiis .son of the old southern aris
tocracy undoubtedly lias v. i h r md 111
tlueiiO'V Tho rebel spirit, in all its
manifestations, variations and tenden
cies, is unalterably and forever wrong.
There is no compromise with it. There
is no possible concjaliueiit of it. Th
impulses and tho traditions that sus
tained slavery aud that vainly at
tempted to diemember tbe republic
cannot be made acceptable to the mu
majority of Americans iu time of
peace. Tbey must bo buried and for
gotten. The descendenta of these scco;
slouists must catcii tto keynote or else
surrender control of the government.
The attempt to achieve by lsgislative
chicanery and , Immoral pretence what
could not bo achieved by four years ol
bitter civil war needs to be given up,
now und forever, hs a lost came.

Another New Industry.
Ouo of the moat useful lessons of the
recent stringency lias been Its demon
gtratiou cf the wis. lorn of diversifying
a community' industries H id Scran
ton rieeu dependent solely upon manu
factories of iron and steel It would last
year have experienced a depression
without precedent. Were it today de
pendent exclusively Upon tho opera
iiuni of our mlnoi, their present slack
uess would cut iKiignatitly Into tho verv
vitals of lou.ll prosperity. But the fact
that we have wisely varied th elements
of our industrial strength has shielded
UndsUstsined us, aud while there has
le.n much suffering, it has DOt i quilled
that felt elsewhere.
We desire lo call attention to a very
Important communication elsewhere
from tho secretary of tha board of
trada explaining, how S.xintouiuns, if
they so desire, uuy add yet another to
the numerous and varied , industries
that hae greatly imphasillJ this
city's importuuee, iu time of pros perl ty
and, In time of depreeeisn, iutrpond
as its effective bulwarks against hard
times. Thorough investigation, by
competent local experts, has demon
strated the houstv and genuineness of
the ilonesdule iron company's recent
offer to remove tiieir plant to this city,
aud it remains tor our psoplo to say
whether this otter shall be accepted,
inasmuch as their euterpriss and
generosity have uever yet failed, we
shall expect soon to auuouueo th com
pletion of this notabls industrial

Tin: QUICK iinpioveuiotit that fol
lows wholesome rivalry was was well
shown in last evening's performance St
the Academy of Sardou's "Americans
Abroad," by u company comparable
with the best now organized. Mana
ger ilurguuder has in my times been
unfairly criticized lor tbe introduction
of attractions Delow tho highest class.
This criticism has entirely overlooks 1
the fact that Manager Ilurguuder, like
a wise businessman, has simply catered
to the demand ns it exists. As that
demand is o Incited and elevated, the
grade of performances will naturally
follow the same course But with two
theaters, each striving to excel the
other, there is a possibility that the
process of education may be very
greatly hastened , and such superior
entertainments as those we have had
this weak will do muc'i to spssd the
good work.

An Era of Nastiness.
Such revelations as those prititel iu
yesterday's report of the l'ollard-Breck-inridge
scandal aro excusable only on
the ground that they show in their
true light the utter inf tiuy, dsgre U
tion sud filth of relations which con
travene the statue law, defy social con
ventions and outrage tha dscency of
intelligent mankind In an ags when
this aboiniuuble nastiness appears to b
upon the increase, it is tho duty of
public teachers, whither infthe pulpit,
the school room or through the press,
to re-gmphoRize legsous of moral clean
less and r double efforts to inculcate
social purity and strengthen individual
honor.
It is not pleasant for any decent man
to breathe guch an utmosphuro of in
expressible corruption as now om
auates from the putrid carcass of Col
onel Breckinridge's ones -lofty reputu
tlon. The langusge of calmusss and
dignity does nut guffico to voice the
depths of infamy which this liory
huaded KentUOkinD has wallowod in,
aud which he now stoically disoloaes to
the astonished guzs of a shuddering
public. Vet, now that he hag forced
this exposure upon that public, h
must be contsnt to take the conse
quences, iiud the cans i ot sound mo
rality must not fall to advance its in
terests, even though to do so it bag to
exhibit him aa the most nauseating ex
ample of uttor (iltlilness tint has ever
received the misplaced coutlleuuj of a
deceived constituency.
