Election Time, Nov. &
The wak of Cbiua tiguinst Japnn Is
a case of numbers against brains; ami
we shouldn't bo surprised to see bruhi9
via.
Planning; to Kill,
Eeadiug about the qualities of tho
death-dealing uew rifle with which, if
tomorrow's test at Newport terminate
satisfactorily, it is purposed to equip
our American murines, one is im
pelled to inquire if, after all, this is
really an age of civilization and peace.
The fact that man's keenest energies
seem bent in military circles at leust
in devising new and marvelous
mechanisms for more expeditious hu
man slaughter may perhaps, by its
great augmentation of the liability to
carnage, have a repressive effect on the
belligerent instinct; but it looks at the
same time as if it were proof of civil
ization's lack of self-coulidence.
But we are wandering from our pur
pose, which was to present a descrip
tion of the newest appliances for the
quick making of corpses. The small
arm at present used in our navy is the
familiar 45-iuch euliber.which.charged
with ordinary black powder, sends its
projectile 1,200 yards, only fifty-five
rounds being carried by each man.
The new rifle, using smokeless pow
der, enables each man so carry 150
rounds and shoot effectively 2,000
yards, or considerably more than one
mile. The barrel of the gun need not
excted thirty inches in length, aud its
caliber will be only .250 inch, or only a
fraction larger than the familiar 22
caliber revolver. The projectile, we
are informed, "looks ltke an inch and
a half of heavy telegraph wire, and the
explosive chamber of the cartridge
wideusout like a champagne bottle.
The bullet is nickel steel, coated with
nickel, weighing 133 grains; the ex
plosive is -JO grains of risfleite.the high-csl-powered
smokeless explosive." At
short range one of these bullets has
been driven through fifty inches of
solid pine.
The naval experts who have tornor"
row's test In charge express great con
fidence that "American ingenuity"
will, in this matter, once more "aston
ish the world; " and, speaking strictly
within the lines of probability, they
are doubtless correct. As the same
time thoughtful persons may be par
doned for' questioning if it would not
be a more laudable thing with which
to bid for the admiration of foreign
multitudes were some of this peerless
Yankee invention to materialize in the
torm ot moral achievements not sug
gestive of bloodshed, and iu spiritual
triumphs which do not have behind
them the grim and awful shadow of
possible tragedy.
The suggestion of the New York
Mercury that congress and the presi
dency be abolished, and that the office
of general manager be created instead
and given to Representative Hurler,
of Ohio, who "knows everything and
could settle all of the great questions
that might arise" looks to us like a de
liberate slap at Stephen Grover Cleve
land. As to Enlarging the Army.
The strain Imposed on the United
States regular army during the Debs
strike, whereby every available mili
tary force, not counting the national
guard of the various states, some of
which also was enlisted la police
work, has led in many quarter to a
somewhat animated discussion as
to the alleged necessity of enlarging the
standing army. Major General Scbo
ileld, the present commander, favors
such an enlargment, and also counsels
the enlistment of emergency men until
the whole forcu has attained a maxi
mum of 60,000 men.
Commenting upon this, Major Gen
eral Howard says:
For years I bare maintained that our
present force of 20,000 or 25,000 men wag
inadequate, and I nave urged the necet.
etty or incrciaslDg that force to at least
60,000. I UeliY8 that a till should bo
passed by which each state should hive no
additional 1,000 regulars assigned to It.
'Whin, some yean ago, I ventured that
opinion, my critics said: "Ob, ye,; natur
ally General Howard would like to have
bis command Increased." Now that I am
ubout to retire such an ambition can
bardly be accredited to me. My idea has
been and is that we absolutely need and
ought to have more force, that, as our Are
department are orgauized with a view to
possible conflagration, so our army should
be fit to cope with at least probable dis
turbances. As Oonorul Schofleld says, bere
in the east we ;huve a fine militia. The
efficioncy of the New York and Pennsyl
vania regiments is well known, and I
want no better drilled troops than I taw
In camp In New Jersey a few days ago.
But ont west the situation is en
tirely different. Theu, too, members ot
tbe militia have their daily work to do
and it is a great hardship, both to thsm
and to their employers, that tbey should
be called npon so frequently. When It is
considered that it take fully 10,000 men
to guard the government's prnpurty, one
realizes how iiiuigniQcant our workinu
force really is. When the first anarchistic
('Utbreak was wide in Chicago, even Fort
hheridan was practically without a jrnrri
son. As the mob at that time nutnuored
84, COO men the numeral, bis stnif and the
governmental buildings in Chicago wore
absolutely unprotected. There is another
l olut which uiutt be taken iuto considera
tion. Our crimiual class is staadlly in
creasing a well as our foreign population.
Ketlmate the number of convicts who
serve thulr time, are unreformsd aud uu-
able to get work. Than assume that this
class should organize and there should bo
an uprising ou tbeir part at snob a time as
during thuse recent labor troubles. New
York city could bold her owu, but what
other city could?
It will be seen that General Howard
favors virtually a state police similar
to that which was advocated to suiuo
extent in this state just subsequent to
tho trouble tit Homestead; only ho
would have this auxiliary force direct
ly under command of tho war depart
ment and not nonilually subject to tho
state authorities. Considering the
quality of some of these local authori
ties in certain western states, nolablo
Altgeld in Illinois, Lewelling in Kan
sas, Walte in Colorado, aud Peuuoyer
in Oregon, the general's disinclination
to haviug regular troops placed under
their jurisdiction is not surprising.
Nevertheless, we apprehend that there
will be decided opposition among the
people to any extended increase of the
regular army. It savors somewhat too
openly of militarism.
One thing is certain. The slate
board of charities will not help iscrau-
tonlaus to a new hospital until they
manifest a reasonable inclination to
help themselves.
Grover Cleveland's Mistake,
In the opinion of many New York
politicians, the greatest single failing
of the present president, apart from
his intemperate self-conlldeuce and
self-esteem, is his inability to rise
to great poliitcal emergencies. It
is conceded that in things where par
tisanship is subordinate he is, for the
most part, strong-willed aud couiu
geous. This was illustrated no later
than during the Chicago strike, when
his firmness and accurate Judgment
displayed themselves to conspicuous
advantage. But where party interest
is concerned, where there is room for
diplomacy and finesse as well as back
bone aud obstinacy, it is the predom
inant belief of those who have studied
Mr. Cleveland most thoroughly that he
is weak, almost fatally.
Those who coincide with this opiuoiu
will concur in the assertion of "Hoi
laud," that if Mr. Cleveland had kept
his hands oil' the tarill' and permitted
senatorial jobbery to do its worst until
an objectional measure had been con
veyed to him for his signature, ho
could have accomplished oue of the
Deatest pieces of political strategy that
has ever come within the opportunity
of any president. He could "nave sent
the bill back to congress with his dis
approval, accompauied by comments
which would have brought to him tho
acclaim of the great body of the Demo
cratic party, and at the same time ho
could also have pointed to the political
ellecti which would follow the betray
al of the Democracy by the senatorial
cabal inspired by the Sugar trust. He
might have reminded congress that on
the issuo of revenue reform, as it is
called, there followed an election in
ISO:!, by which an overwhelming ma
jority was returned to the house und ;
small majority to tho senate of Demo
crats, and by a great plurality a Demo
cratic president was elected. To tam
per with thut issue, to betray tho
people who voted for these principles,
would be, the president might have
said, simply to tempt a reversal of the
popular judgment. Then Mr. Cleve
land might have iaid thut he returned
Without his signature the bill, awaiting
calmly tho verdict of the American
people at the November elections, and
predicting that such verdict would be
such condemnation of the Democracy
as might compel it at tho next Kession
of congress to pass swiftly a genuine
tariff bill."
By this simple strategy the effects
of the almost certain Kepublican vic
tories next fall would have been dis
counted, aud tho llepublieau press
have beeu outgeneraled and silenced
at one move. The inability of tho
president to perceive this extraordin
ary strategtic advantage has, Instead,
been followed by an exactly antitheti
cal blunder which has solidified
against mm mo Drains or nis own
party without bringing him strength
from any other source. Tne conse
quence, while ludicrous enough to his
opponents, has beeu most awkward to
his supporters; and we are not
surprised to learn from "Holland"
that scores of eminent business aud
professional men in New York city
who would, two years ago, with en
thusiasm have deserted their private
affairs to organize mass meetings in
support of Mr. Cleveland's smallest
wish are today indlflerent or openly
hostile to tho man and shame-faced
concerning his party and his recent
associations. We are fast nearing tho
end of tho Cleveland myth.
We are Indebted to tho Wilkcs
Barre News-Dealer for the following
correction of an error in this paper on
Saturday last:
Toe Bcraiuok Thidunb, in an article
reviewing tbe ducitiou of Consignor
Hrttolll on the liquor question, mixes up
things a tritle. Evidently somebody has
imposed on our contemporary. It quotes
an extract from the New York Catholic
Keviaw, which bus no bearing on the case
whatever. Tbe extract was printed lu the
New York Iudeuemleut shortly after the
arrival of Batulll in ttiis country. It is a
forgery, and in the last issue of tbe Review
the editor called upon the Independent to
apologize, as the article in question never
appeared in the Review. Tbe New York
Tribune, which copied tbe article from the
Independent, made an ample apology,
We , are glad to know thut The
Tribune's pursuance of a common-sense,-
business policy toward such
candidates for political preferment as
may wish to avail themselves of the
publicity to be gained in its advertls-
ing columns has found favor with so
fair a Jtidgo as "Roderick Itandom."
It, as lie aptly says, "is a purely busi
ness transaction, involving no prin
ciple whatever, and there is no good
reason why the candidate who offers
his services to the people and expects
in return the honors aud emoluments
of oilice, should not pay for the adver
tising spate lie occupies in a paper as
well as tho merchant who announces
his wares and prices, and expeuts in
return profits from the goods he sells."
1 he advertising columns of this paper
are open to all men and all parties,
witli equal justice to all and peculiar
favors to none.
The president is said to bo much
disgusted with Senator Vilas' slobber
ing defense. Thus even sycophancy
frequently over-reaches itself.

THE
Pie Counter.
There is a little town in Bradford
county, on the Lehigh Valley rullroad,
which lurni'hes iu-to material for a his
torical ruinuuce than almost any other
iu the country, uud yet it has missed being
famous. Tbe discoverer of an old jour
nal, or a piickuue of letters, relating to
Asylum, lirmltord county, say in the
8ii miner of 17!I7, wbeu the tbruo Orleans
princes were its guests (the elder of them,
Louis Philippe, asceuUintr the throne ot
France soma thirty years after), would,
thinks a writer in tho linfl'alo Express,
have the clmnco of i adding something of
great value to the world of letters. Uu
lortuuatoly, the early annuls of Asylum
are surprisingly raeuger, and otten con
tradictory. Kochefoueauld, wtio visited
the colony iu IVJ't, tulU the most that we
know or the settlement of French royulwt

who bad tied from the Reign of Terror lu
France to this "Asylum" prepared for
them iu tbe now world. Iu due time they
hid made provision for receiving Louis
XVI. aud Marie Antoinette, who, in
their attompt to escape from France in
the summer of 171)1. bad been arrested ut
Farreues and carried back to Paris oud
the guillotine. The colony at tbe time of
the duke's visit bud beeu founded fifteen
years. (Succeeding hUtoriutis have added
little to Rochefoucauld's account. Inter
esting us it is, aud full of detail, we cau
uot holp wisbiug thut the duke had gos
siped mure freely ubout bis poor country
men's affairs. Should the lost diary of
Louis Phillipe d' Orleans ever be found
that part of it covering the journey of the
throe exiled princos in this country, when,
after a long tramp through our wild west,
they were returning to I'biluitelphis, via
the" Genesee country, aud stepped for
fortnight at Asylum that, no doubt,
woulit givo us a glimpie of tho refugee
culutiNts in tbe backwoods clearing which
nothing has as yet. But, alas, that dlur y
i-i not to be found. "Louis Philippe, " we
read, "the late king of the French, iu 1705
(sic) came through the Wind Gap ou
