Mr. Debs' Reply.
The elaborate rtefens published yes
terday by Preeldeut Dobs betrays be
twoeu its well-worded lines an unsafe
anxiety to reform the ill of mankind
at one clip. Mr. Debs looks Ht certain
evils and vowj that hu will eure them,
yet does not pauso to consider the
necessiiry question of mt-thola He
perceives, for instance, that men who
once earned larye sums of money at
Pullman, when tiuiaa were brisk and
Vfnces high, luii, during the business
depression suffered necessary reduc
tions and bad finally gtrncn iig.-ilust the
new order of things. "All rislit!" says
Don Quisole Dabs, ''we'll w.ka Em
ployer Pullman pay more money to bis
men or we'll smash every railreud
company th.it uses Pullman's ewi. "
This, perhaps, was a natural view for
Debs to tai, schooled as hi was in the
agitators' school. But it would have
beu more prudont in b'.m had be
paused to consider tho causes underly
ing the Pullman wag mduetioas
notably th grat falling off in rail
way travel and coiis"qU'ntir diinin
iahed demand for c:r tiiat followed in
the wake of the Democratic free trade
triumph that Debs helped to nchlev
nnd the methods best calsulated to
neutralize or modify those causes. It
illustrates the uopeletsness of labor
organization along the lines o! dain:i
gogism that Db' inconsilerats on
slaught upon the Pullmiu windmill
was followed without a murmur of
dissent and apparently in entire sub
mission by hundreds of thom
nuds of contented working men
throughout the west who bad
absolutely no urievauce of their
own and who were not in the least con
cerned in the outcoim of the original
trouble. Peter the Hermit leading
thousands of Zialous crusaders Into the
fever camps and death pits of Palestine
in a sentimental effort to wrest from
Infidel bands the four feet of earth
wherein the Savior was supposed to
bave beon buried almost a dozm cn-
turies before was not a circumstance in
point of misdirected z;al to this wild
stampede of deluded wage earners
against a tot that bad no existence in
fact
The Debscrusuda will fail, of course,
because it has no justice and no reason
back of it. And in its failure the
cause of labor will experience a reverse
not less galling because almost angrily
a elf inflicted against the counsel of la
bor's truest friends. But it is not upon
Debs alone that the burden of defeat
will descend. If it were, the American
people could await the inevitable out
come with entire tquanimity. The
thing which tiny are complaining
aoout is the fact that for every nnny
of experience bought in this mad fizbt
by Debs, the innocent pnblic is being
precinitantly deluged with, dollars'
worth of losses that cotno through no
fault of their own, at a tiuai when any
new bnsiness reverses are doubly dis
aatrous.
A good rule of conduct in these
troublous days is the golden rale; but
Unfortunately it is under a boycott in
many pltices.
Those rabid foes of corporate wealth
who exhibit spleen at the National
guard because, in pursuance of its
plain doty, it is sometimes called upon
to protect corporation property that is
jeoparded by mob violenoe do not
represent the sober opinions of intelli
gent workingmen. A violation of law
is none the less a violation because
committed by those who are poor at the
expense of those who are rich. No
honest laborer is under any neoessity
of becoming a orlmlnal or an outlaw.
Upon tbe contrary, bis sympathies and
bis interests all lie in the direction of
gool order and good citizenship. It is
time tbe conservative Common sense
that, when aroused, really domlnatos
the various branches of organized labor
in this country awoke to tbe injury
that false counsel is now doing to labor's
cause.
Tub tendency in a number of in
stances to draw the Hue at obeap
journalism where oheapnesa necessar
ily involves poorness, is a wholesome
one. A good paper is worth a fair
price, every day in the year.
The Verdict Foreseen.
Bold Tom Reed is very much inclined
to say "I told you so." He has no
patience with tbe idea that President
Cleveland is to be blamed for all tbe
ills that be. He suspeots that it is tbe
people tberaselves who have beon at
fault; and who are now writhing over
the effects of their own medicine. This
ia bis conclusion to an interesting
article in the July North American Re
view: How long will tt bt before tbe children
of the republio rise to the full knowledge
of their fnltu and rest on the foundation
atone of their institution, that no one man
can make or mar, but that ell tbe people
Snallv come, and are the only Darnel that
dove finally come to judgment? It it true
that the last year demonstrates bow care
lvts the judgment of our Dauiel may some-
isu ue.auu how great ue the costs and
chargisof biscoart, but there is always
an appeal, and today neither suitor doubts
whRt tbe next judgment is to be.
Only one thing can change tho char
acter of that finding. It will be the
nomination by Republicans of unfit
men, The party i on tbe top wave;
but it cannot lonpfbut there suooess
fully if weighted down by water-soaked
standing olairaants. It the best party
now in the fluid hasn't judgment
eupngh to draft its best men for its best
opportunity it ought to be disciplined
ry means of another defeat,
A Lit KnNB contemporary severely
criticizes tho management of the
Scranton bicycle races for having
''wheels of fortune" upon the grounds,
Possibly this idyllio Wilkes-Uarrean
would bave beon more at ease in a
merry-go-round.
It is announced that owing to ad
vancing years and tailing heultb, ex
Vice President Morton will not be a
candidate for tbe Republican guber
natorial nomination in New York. This
withdrawal will disappoint many who
have looked upon Mr. Morton's candi
dacy as the ouo in many respects best
calculated to oommuud eiuoere re
spect and almost certain victory.
Under the circumstances, however,
the party could not do bettor than
to plaee in nomination that stalwart
Republican and veteran journal
ist, ex-Minister John M. Francis, of
Troy. Mr. Francis' popularity before
the people was strikingly shown liut
spring wheu be led all tbe candidates
for delegate-at-large to the constitu
tional convution, With Mr. Francis
in the executive chair at Albany then
would be no shirkiug of duty, no sur
render of principle and no quarter to
bossism or jobbery. If he could bo
prevaileJ upon to accept a nomination,
which would almost surely be followed
by victory at the polls. It would be a
happy solution to the gubernatorial
problem in the Empire state and oue
that wuld appeal to the best iustinoU
of virile IvDntUicatiisiu everywhere.

Widen the Fire Limits.
The question of re-adjusting the fire
limits of Scranton, to fit the extra
ordinary recent growth of the city,
although a solution is strougly urged
by every consideration of prudence and
foresight, unaccountably vet hangs iu
abeyant. Meanwhile, new struotnres
are beiuj; planned daily, many of
which virlually invite rapid destruc
tion by the first tiro tiint shall care
lessly be ignited within them.
Now wbila the lessons of the Fourth
of July are fresh in mind, it would be
timely for eouncils to make a forward
move in this matter. It is not denied
that new frame buildings in the busi
ness portion of the city are a menace,
to adjoiniug property; yet scarcely a
day passes that does not sua such build
ings begun or contracted . for. The
time to act is before tbe danger gets
too great; and before the custom of
building Under-like structures in
places of nncommon exposure becomes
too firmly established.
An ordinance extending tbe fire lim
its to a degree commensurate with our
expanding city should be introduced at
the next session of councils. It will en
counter little if any opposition and it
will fill a long felt want. Who is tbe
councilman that shall prove equal
to this opportunity?
Robert Ross threatens to prove the
John Brown of anti-bossism in munici

In Its Death Throes.
Grand Master Wilkinson, of the
Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen,
makes tho following official announce
ment, which embodies sound sense:
"The Broth erhood of Railway Train
men as an organization cannot sana
tion the Pullman strike. It has no af
filiation whatever with the American
Railway union. This strike was au
thorized by about 200 delegates attend
ing the Amerioan Railway nnion con
vention, who did nut represent one
thirtieth of the employes in the train
service in tbe United States, but every
man, woman or child employed In any
capacity on a railway is expected to
bow to this imperious command re
gardless of any right of their own ob
ligation to other organizations or con
tracts with their employers. Members
go out on strike and then wire asking
me to sanction their action when they
know nbsoiately I have no such power.
If they go out it will have to be with
the Amorican Railway onion for they
cannot go out as members of the
Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen un
less they have some grievance of their
own or of an organization whloh is a
part of a federation on the system
where they are at Work.
This, added to the disapproval of
Chief Sargent and ex-Ueneral Master
Workman Powderly, leaves Debs vir
tually alone in bis questionable glory.
Tho breezy disregard of law and justice
wbicii characterizes his latest inter
views bis contempt of the courts,
abuse of the government oulolals at
Washington and bids for tbe eymiatby
of the incendiary elements of society
unerringly indicates tbe near approach
of the end. tie would not talk iu bis
present fashion bnt for tbe fact that be
is in a frenzy of despair. What he bad
planned as the grand uprising of masses
against classes has speedily resolved
itself into its true constituents of a
bold conspiracy against law, in the
consummation of which Debs and bit
agents were willing to aacrtfloe tbe
welfare of the nbo.le country rather
than submit to personal humiliation.
Inlelligeot labor can h'ave no toltr
ance tor Debs and Debsism, for these
words represent labor's greatest foe.
The euuse of lubor does not require its
champions to become criminals. It
imposes no obligation up in tbem that
would lend them to the gallows or the
j ail. The utter dlsregarj of public
rights and public sentiment shown in
this strike is rot charaeteristio of
thoughtful aud considerate leadership,
nor is it sanctioned by respsctabla
citizenship. The one fute open to Debs
s defeat. His poliay of rule or ruin is
already In its death throes.
' I BIlUuvb." said venerable John
Shrrrnun, at Wasliiugton Wednesday,
'that the 03.000,000 pople in this
country are strouiior and wiser than
any other 6,000,000 people in the
world. The duty of patriotism should
be elevated above other duties. It is
tbe foundation stone of our govern
ment." And the quickest way to elevate
that dutv is to make it felt at the prim
aries and to vote it at tbe polls.

Night at Sea.
At 11 o'clock on tho morniucr of the
twentieth of Juno the lines were cast off
ti in ill the cheers of uu excited throng and
the best wishes of friends, relatives and
bweuttieartn lining tho pier. The slenm
shi j New York backed out into the middle
of North river nnd turned her noso down
tlio bay. It was siiuplv glorious weather,
the water being as clear as a mill pond.
Wo passed tho Wtatuoof liberty, Uovorn
or s inland and quarantine, and stopped in
the lower bay to Int olf some celebrity and
iigain outside of Stmdy Hook to bid the
pilot good-bye, and soon wore out of sight
of land. 1 Lave always been fearful uf
the water and imagined all sorts of things
as probable accompHUimeuts of a sen voy
ai;e. Tho crowds of passengers on deck,
tho jolly niHinbers of the Cinderella troop,
returning home, the Yale utbletes tinging
the dear old college songs, the groups of
passengers In steamer chairs uncased iu
rug, the picture of coutoutment and hap
piiidss combined, however, to make me dis
trust the notions I hud always held of the
sea and its terrors; and 1 begau to think it
wasn't such u terrible experience after all.
We had been sailing about an hour after
lunch when ull of a sudden a fog settled
down npju us so thick aud impenetrable
as to juatify the liismul sound uf the fog
horn ull the afiornoou and eveuing. Din
ner was served ut T, aud tho dining saloon,
with its electric lights, ceiling of colored
plass and tables bedecke J with flowers and
lillod with pussnugei'p, confirmed my ideas
formed iu the afternoon. I said to myself:
"Tbe crossing of the ocean ii no trick at
all." Before retiring I looked Into tbe
smoUing room where groups of gentlemen
were surrounding tables of whist and
gnmes of every decripaon. At 10 I was
fast asleep in an outside state room on tho
port side well forward. Lying iu my buulc
I could look out at tho water as quiet as
Lake Ariel and the only thing disgust
ing at all whs the everlasting
foghorn tooting every other minute. Bow
long I had beon asleep I do not know, but
I was awakened by a noise unlike any
oth.-r I have ever heard. Our ship, I
thought, was being crushed like an egg
shell. I jumped out, and dressing very
hurriedly groped my way out and up the
stairs leading to the dining saloon. We
were on the upper deck and 1 remember
thinking that the passengers below were
probably all drowued, Uo on deck were
crowds of excited passengers women
were crying and men gasping for breath.
Theiflicors were hurryiug back and forth,
tho sailors preparing to lower tbe boats
otitnide; you could not see fifty feet from
the boat.
The pursor, Mr. Kiusey, stood by
his oflice, aud I think he mmt
bavo answered a thousand questions
ia less time than it takes me to write
this sentence. There had been a col
lision; that was evident. On the port
side amidships the railing was all carried
away, tbe supports to the bridge bout into
liMguifclits, the davits of two boats twist
ed all out of shape. I taw the bowsprit of
the vessel and its anchor on the promen
ade deck before me. Were we damaged
below the water Hue? That was the im
portant question. In less than five min
utes soundings were made and lines
lowered into the wolls in tbe bull iu dif
ferent places. Captain Jamison, a jolly
little man,- whose hair was white with
years of battling with the elements, stood
on the bridge, the coolest man on tbe
ship. I managed to crawl Vft on tbe star
board side nwt naif way up the ladder of
the bridge. OS on our right through the
mist tho lights of a ship wore visible We
wero lying to, and it was evident that was
tho boat we had to thuukforour condi
tion. Nearer the vessels came to each other.
' What is your nnme?" shouted tbe cap
tain across the intervening water.
"The El Dorado of Spain," came back
the answer. ,
'Are you hurt and do you need any as
sistance?" "No. What, is year name?"
"The New York, of tbe American line,"
"Do you need help?"
"No sir; although you gave us a bad
wrench,"
"Are you taking nnv water? "
"No," said Captain Jamison and the sig
nal was given to go ahead at hull spood.
It was quite interesting to hear tbe con
versation in tho dining room. One man
offered IM)C for a bout aloue by himself.
Iuasmucb as we are carrying l.OvO souls, I
guess he wonld have been luakv to bavo
been permitted to get a boat at alL Ladios
were praying ami crying, and many men
were shaking. The olll ;ers Were not bi -lieved.
It was hinted that they would con
ceal tbe real condition of things iu ai.y
event.
I bad quite a talk with lion. Roger A.
Pryor, the ex-Coufederato general uow
judge of tbe common pleas in New York.
He said it was all folly for the American
line to require American as enptains. I
remarked I thought that was due to tho
requirement of the act of congress and a
condition of the subsidy for currying the
mails. "So it is," ho eaid, nnd addud,
"While I'm patriotic I would prefer a i
Euglinh or Scotch captain. Thoy know
tbe business vastly butter than any Amer
ican." This sounded to me just like a south
erner und a Tammany man. They both
prefer Eugland to America and have al
ways looked out for her interests. They
are at it now.
Oeneral Pryor said: "I reckon If you'ro
rroui i'ouneyivania you ao not agree witu
mo."
' I told htm I had a prejudice in favor of
the Htars nnd Utiipes aud was uot willing
to admit that any other land was better i,t
auy other set of meu better. Boon we
each wont our own way.
Tbe cause of our unfortunate experience
will probably never be known. We are
tailing right along and the sun never
shown better than this morning and the
blue water of the ocean was never hand
somer, but I have changed my opinion
about the loveliness of ocean travel.
