ONI THING may b taken for granted
The people who voted for two new
bridges didn't mean that tbey Bhould

is time to (ret down to the bed rock
fact that the bridges are needed now.
A Blistering Disgrace.
The lucid and convincing: narration
In the Philadelphia 1'ress yesterday of
the anccecsive details of the colossal
jobbery whereby the giernntio Sugar
trnst. controlled by the llnvemoyera of
New York, coral tad the president and
senate of the United States in further
ance of their scheme of monopolistic
enrichment through fnvor.ible tarilT
schedule inserted to order In tho hem
stitched Wilson bill in exchange for
cash f qnivtltnta forms a story of pol
itical spoliation without precedent in
the literature of great scandal. The
spectacles of n (jreat party deliberately
selling itself, in return for n
$500,0(10 campaign contribution not
to apeak of individual irrstriitie." ;
of n highly moral chif OXeotltiVO en
meshing himself step by step ia tli
web of deceit Htid wrong-doing through
selfish friendship forced on him by
oily ag'Tits of tne trust; of the secre
tary of the treasury ojunly admitting
the deal befor a committee of Demo
cratic politicians; and, finally, of a
cabal of Democratic Mnatora working
in secret behind barrel doors npon
larilf schedules which war framed to
the dictation of the trust's ehief man
sgrs, forms in its shameful aggregate
a record that can ex"it.' nf other feel
ing tiian utter indignation.
There have ben rumor that this ex
poanr would come. Mints and frv,--mnts
of this odious trail) in the c:i-
Ddenca of the people have rarionsly
cropt into pnblioity dsiit extraordi
nary elTirts to hash, the matter up. I
1 even onrrent talk that retolntions
looking toan Impeachment of the pr
ident nnder whoee mtagnlded vision
this ihnmefal eoaodel bad bn plotted
and fashioned were at mie tim qnietly
circulateil in inner congressional cir
cles, with a view to ascertain! ng the
drift of party sentiment Finally, in
the open sen.ito of tho nation, reputable
orctors of the minority bold!
charged that a gigintic deal had
lieen connmma'el which dmnnl I
n thorough invesligation Itnt no:
r.ntn tin tin has the real duwloiare
been made public, or the re il efidtBM
marshalled with a forte that cannot
now be laughed down. The narration
of the Tress is oredlble first bacan" it
supplies its own proof; and MOOOdly
because it is the only hypothesis tint
throw any iclantifio light "n the other
wise incomprehensible iocoherencv
and chaos of th Democratic senate'
IT rts at tariff nvision. Tae to
iler judgment of the pople will
not only readJv credit this rx
posnre, but it will btootforth
demand, with nn emphasis that cannot
be ctille d, the lifting of tho whole yeil
en l tho merciless chastisement of thoa
wh'i have ttns sold oat the taxpayers
of our country for pelf end personal
profit. A pttbllo sentiment which can
rsvoit at Tammanyiau) In ;otham will
not fail to mete out scrupulous punish
ment to the larger Tammanyitm thai
htl coiled itsIf in the chief place of
national lefialattou.
Not the least interesting portion of
this exposnre i th fat I that much of
the Corruption fund contributed by
Wall street lobbyists to tho osuiptign
which elfOttd Mr Clevdand went to
ward the cemeoting of Populist fusion
in the west. Thus we hart the curious
anomaly of Populitt r.mtr acting as
unconscious est paws for the very
monopolis that formed the incesant
theme of their bitterest denunciations,
it is oltimtd by the I'ress' correspon
dent, who has exceptional facilities for
getting uecunte information, that at
loast Colorado and Illinois wjri
directly carried for the Democracy
by aid of money thus supplied;
end what wiu true of these
atntea may with reason on 1 logic be
assumed to lie tnw of other states sim
ilarly manipulated. We trust that our
Western fellow citizsnn will perciiV"
the peculiar irony t their present ait
nation. It may have n tendoncy, if
properly understood, to abate in the
future their habitually mad ardor to
right exaggerated wrong by blindly
playing into the hands of their greatest
enemies.
For the rial, this revelation can only
mphnsizo tho earnestnes of tho na
tion' coining repudiation of the rotten
thing today called Democracy ; and ad 1
rest to the tntnmary retribution which
was already fully decided upou
-
It is no doubt purely nn oversight
which caused the esteemed Washing
ton Star, usually so careful in matters
of this kind, to copy from 'I'm. TRIBUHI
without the accustomed credit a recent
editorial in whieh this journal defined
a ball umpire's qualifications. With
this minor correction, we bow acknowl
edgment for tho compliment
Mr. Stranahan's Setback.
Ono cannot feign surprise at the
very natnral information that the few
remaining Demoerats of prominence in
Pennsylvania nre not specially eager to
come forward with subscriptions to
thi year's campaign fund. Letting
nlone the fact that the Democratic
party, financially as well aa politically,
Ij bankrupt and mortgaged for more
than it is worth, partly dne, in a state
sense, to J, Marsli Wright, who taft
the central committee with a $1,500 de
limit (taring it in the face, this ia
clearly not a Democratic yoar. Even
Populist Joe Sibley, who ia one of tho
men that hold a mortgage on the Itonr
b,n machine, recognizss this and is
careful, exceedingly careful, not to got
caught in the oxpenaive toils of n
Democratic gubernatorial nomination.
We repeat it is not precisely surpris
ing, therefore, that the thrifty new Hold
marshal, Jamea A Stranahan, with
uch a condition of Impeounioilty con
fronting him, should take him In hot
haste to Washington, there to murmur
into Grover's ear that unleBB there was
a moro vigorous shake-down of minor
federal plums iuto the aprous of the
impatient faithful, it would bo literally
impossible to make a pretense of sus
taining tho Democratic organization
built up, with much travail, by his
friend Harrity. Indeed, the fact that the
obdnrnte executive is currently rumored
to have finally vouchsafed au affirmn
tivo response is proof that the high
opinion wo havo always entertained of
Brother .Stranahan's oleaginous proper
tie were not in the least misplaced.
The plum tree will be shaken, with a
good and lusty shake, if James Adelbert
Stranahan line any fuir chance In the
piny. What is more, the plums will
fall, not at haphazard as heretofore;
but with unerring precision whero
they will do the moat good; that is to
say, where they will sooueat yield
needed revenue for parlisau lubrica
tion. Notwithstanding all this, however,
and much moro which could be said In
tulogy of the unctuous Jamea, it is a
cold and cheerl-ss fact that Democratic
investments, through the medium of
state campaign assessments, are not
held at present in very high favor,
l'.ven Miose congressmen of Democratic
faith who misrepresent Pennsylvania
at Washington ate currently reported
to have uiveu Stranahan the snub His
artfully worded calls for $" checks fell
on ears that might as well have been
chiseled out of stone. His eloquent
I ei son. u appeal for contributions "for
the good of the cause" met with silence,
irowns or derision. These discourag
ing Incidents, we Hre particular to
make clear, are not an I must not be
interpreted as refleotioni upon Stran
ahan'a skill; but rather hs usufructs of
miscellaneous Democratic demoralizs
tion which has spread so far au l so
firmly that even Democratic office
hinders are ashamed to squander more
money in the interests of their obaotic
party.

Cameron for President.
General Warner, the Wn..niri x-
I cotigrmBi.ian, was at one time a MofQl
land experienced leuilator; but the'

1 linye clouded hi tirnin. Aa jireeident
of the t'i metallic league, evir ready
to occupy apace and lime with extreme
opinion detriuinntal to the country's
1 busineta intercte,ho i beginning to be '
I just a trill monotonous, not to say
actually tiresome. General Warner th
I other day availed himself of a Pittsburg
I journal's kindness to detail at length ;
I his wearisome views, and would have
I deacended into ahsolute romiiMii place :
hud ho not accidentally delivered him
self of thi entertniuintf bit of prop'j
ecy: There bus heen a mighty chniiRe In '
sentiment lately about silver. The Ite
puhlicnii leaders realize that silver will
tin the issue, not ti e tariff. Cameron Is
amoiiK the first to fbt that protection and
tlte ROlO standard do not insure high
prices. The western Ptatos, from the
Mississippi to the coaet, will stand by tbe
party that is willing to give them a chance.
I predict that neither McKtnlejr nr et
Speaker iteed will be the Republican
candidate for president. It would not
surprise me if Senator Cameron is the
man. The people will insist once mid for
alien a settlement of tho financial ques
tion. If Pennsylvania took ration stock in
the cut yonr-noao olT-tn-spite-yonr-face
theory of politic, we should be inclined
to say that nnything which should
give to the citizens of this common
wealth another senator who would
adequately represent their roonomlc
beliefs would be acceptable, oven
though it should translate Mr. Camer
on from the senate to the white house.
Hut that would b too cru4 to the
United Statea, The ui03t that we can
wish for, In this direction, is that in the
atato senatorial districts where the
Cameron i;isue can bo honestly raised,
tbe people may indicate thoir desires
so plainly that, when tho time com -s,
the Pennsylvania legislature will do its
duly.

OLD GLORY'S ORIGIN.
Senator Laniel.
Fnmilion, Rhe nations, may have their
devices, and it may be worthy of nolo thst
that of the Washington family furnished
the pattern from which the Stars and
Stripes of our national ling are tnken.
The insignia of a noble name nandod down
from generation to generation, and held
lip as the luoentlve of integrity and valor,
mny well be cherished. But all glories of
ancestral aetntooeon are so overshadowed
by the dee Is of Washington that they
fnde into insignificance. Proud and just
democracy, scornful of honors not self
WOU, pays its tributes solely to the man,
the woman, und the deed. ( leorgo Wash
ington was great because he stood for the
freedom of his people. Mary Washington
was great because aba implanted m his
youthful breast rightaoui indignation
against wrong which must ever bo tbe in
spiration of the lioro.
