Election Time, Mot. & Ouk lively Luzerne contemporary, the Wilkes-JJarre Times, has beeu ira posed upon by a smart young man who deliberately gave one of its reporVers false news. The smart youug man Is under arrest; and the Times Is receiving commendation for itseuergyiu protect ing its readers. The jail is a good place or such smart young men. Today's Convention. While it is not the mission of honest party journalism to discourage Kepub. llcan enthusiasm, it is well to bear in ndnd that the common political enemy is shrewd, keen and uncrupulous, Lackawanna county can and must be made safe for protection to Lackuwan- na's diversified industries; but the achievement of this result can be made easy or diilicult accordingly as today's convention does its work well or ill, It is simply the plain and unbiased truth to say, w ithout reference to per soualities or factions, that the welfare of the party as a whole is superior to the ambitions of any man in it; and by this rule, with thought of the mor row as well as thought of today, should the convention be guided. In a gathering where many caudl dates and many Interests strive for su premacy, some must inevitably be dis appointed. The test of party loyalty will come to successful and defeated ones alike; to the former in moderation of undue exulting and to the latter in ready acceptance of the wishes of the mujority which lies at the fountain head of government of and by the peo ple. Until we are forced to believe to the contrary we shall assume that this test will be welcomed by each of the interests represented in today's con vention; and that when that conven tion shall have completed its work, the entire membership of it will be pre pared to give assurance of unanimity and of renewed party zeal. In expressing this wish and this conviction we are not unmindful of die need of concerted and harmonious party struggle. The interests at stake ought certainly, during the long months of Democratic depression, to have given ample evidence of their gravity and their weight. The citizen who will consult his pocketbook and his ledger will have littlo need of fur ther urging to induce him to appre ciate the need of sweeping and decisive Republican victory. It is a mistake to assume that the business interests of the country; that even the interests of our own industrial comniuiyty, are yet safe beyond the danger line. With Democracy constituted as it is, noth ing is safe while that party is within scent of pelf and power. It must be whipped, scourged and humiliated, not simply in congressional districts, not simply on state legislative dis tricts, but In county and municipal and township and borough arenas as well; whipped, llayed and beaten all along the line. The convention of today will not fill the measure of its clear duty if by its work It makes this task more difficult. Few inland daily newspapers are brighter or more progressive than the Allentown Leader, which has just com pleted its first year. It is cheerful and clean; and it deserves all the kind words that its friends are saying about it. Just Plain Common Sense. A correspondent of the Indianapolis Journal, thinking to score a point against Governor Claude Matthews be cause he is a Democrat,' charges that the following extract from one of his recent speeches is a revival of known nothingism: "Is it not time to stop and ask ourselves the question if we have not thrown our doors too wide open, received too indiscriminately the unworthy immigrant and too hastily clothed him with the rights and priv illges of citizenship? By far too many of them have been received of the pauper, criminal and Anarchistic class, who remain ignorant of our language, laws and institutions, whose only idea of liberty is lawlessness and license and hostility to all government, recognizing none save that of force, who can never become assimilated or Americanized. I believe the best Interests of labor alone demand that this class of immi grants be excluded from our shores, sndhe who, attempts to bring them here should be held guilty of a high criminal offense." Fair play for Mat thews. This isn't know nothingism. It is plain common sense. No honest Republican need fear to stand side by side with Indiana's Democratic gover nor upon such a necessary plank. Let us have done with whangdoodleism on this subject. The Hazleton Plain Speaker seems almost inclined to dispute The Trib une's claim touching the bravery of Lackawanna's soldiery in the civil war by resort to the circumlocution that Lackawanna was thou a part of Luzerne, The moti.cr county apparently cannot quite make up her jealous old mind to become entirely reconciled to the over shadowing greatness of her son. Mr. Moody's Mission. It is a fortunate circumstance which brings to this city at this time a min ister of such straightforward and effec tive eloquence and large renown as Rev. Dwight L. Moody. It would be superfluous to say eo much as a word in introduction of him. Eveu to chil dren his name is already a household word wherever the English language is employed in daily speech; and from the youngest to the eldest there is scarcely a rank, age, class or condition in life that his fearless ministrations and candid presentations of Divine truth and duty as these have been re vealcd to him have not blessed with a larger measure of spiritual grace and comfort. It is not necessary, we re peat, to introduce sucli a clergyman to the people of Scranton. Nay, rather, it would be presumptuous. But we can at least welcome him and, in be half of all our citizenship, wish for him the abundant reward deserved by his liberal and charitable teachings and by the purity of his purpose and record. As we understand Rev. Mr. Moody's present intention, he does not come to preach to Protestants, Catholics, Jews or Gentiles; but rather to fellow men, struggling with greater or less success to solve the destiny of their race and work out, each for himself, the person al problem of salvation. There is need of such evangelization; never a greater need than now. At x period when the recruiting schools of sin and crime are working on double time and with, it would almost seem, a doubled and a tripled force of employes and superin tendents, there is need of a ministry which, casting aside whatever there is is in the conventionality of pulpit teaching as it is generally known, will get down to the marrow of its mission and demonstrate its usefulness more by deeds than words. We apprehend tlut Rev. Mr, Moody will not, while among us, waste much time haggling over the shucks and shells of denominational differences. We shall be surprised if it shall prove to be his purpose to expend much ef fort or thought, while in Scranton, upon fine theological distinctions be tween tweedle dee and tweedle dum. We doubt very much whether he is at all worried over many of these Intel' lectual enigmas that puzzle the brains and engross the sapient attention of many estimable modern doctors of di vinity. It is our knowledge of tiie man that ho believes his mission to be vital and living; to deal with men rather than with definitions and to fight a buttle against a real and a pres ent and an iudefatigablo enemy rather than to lock horns with brother clergy men in disputations that achieve little material or other profit. The gospel that he proclaims is rather one vibrant with Divine love and human sympa thy; not cold with dissected intellec tuality nor still with the frost of spir itual congealment. The information that, wlienaskcd about an interview in which somebody had said he would not accept a renonii nation, General Harrison "only smiled" is one of those stunning and cyclonic pieces of news under which the wires of our country sometimes stagger at a certain price per word, during the heated term. Sacrificing the Farmer. One of the things for which this Democratic administration will surely be held accountable is its abrogation of the reciprocity features of the Mc Kinley tariff, whereby American ex ports, chiefly of products raised on American farms, were just beginning to gain general admission upon favor able terms to markets from which they had previously been excluded. The new Democratic tariff sacrifices this valuable stimulus to the American ex port trade without offering anything equivalent in return. A more stupid and uncalled-for piece of legislative bungling has seldom been seen. On Friday of last week, Spain, by royal decree, brought American reci procity with Cuba to an end. The effect of this abrogation may be fore seen by study of our past trade relations with the "Queen of the Antilles." The Philadelphia Press pithily summar izes those relations as follows: "In 1870 our exports to Cuba were $12,201,091. In 1891 they had risen only to $11,029, 605. In September, 1891, Spain, in re turn for free sugar.grantedour products special privileges and our exports be gan to rise by leaps and bounds. In the fiscal year which closed last June they were $20,125,321. In the year before they were $24,157,098. For three years our exports have averaged $20, 447,000. For thirteen years before the passage of the McKinley tariff they had averaged $10,000,000." "These advancing and enlarging ex ports," says the Press, "meant a larger and freer market for our coah our oil, our wheat, our meat and a host of our manufactures. This market has all been sacrificed to make sugar dear and wages low in this country and no corresponding benefit is given the American consumer." But we shall be much deceived in the common sense of the Northern farmer If he shall not yet demand the restitution of those re ciprocity treaties as his fair and proper i share of the benefits of the Protective system, a thing which can be brought about only by the restoration of Repub licat to power. For bome time hence it is probable that long range missionary work w be the most popular in dealing with the heathen Chinese on his own tern tory. The propensity to join the mob and slaughter white Christians is alto gether too strong in tho Flowery Kingdom in war times and It is pleas ing to note that the majority of people wtio nave taken up the work of con verting the yellow pagans have wisely concluded that it is better to be a live missionary than a dead martyr to the cause. Tho almond-eyed son of China in a mission school in this country is a very ditlerent individual from the un converted heathen in his own home reinforced by hundreds of his class and maddened by the mischievous elo quence of tho celestial orators who would have all white people banished from their country. The recent expe rience of missionaries in China who narrowly escaped being murdered by mobs will undoubtedly have the effect of making missionary work in China unpopular, at least until the war is over. The Westing house Electric Company, of Pittsburg, has just re ceived from the Chicago City Railway company, which is tho most extensive streetrailway corporation in the United States, an order for 4,500 horse-power of generators and 800 motors. The value of this order is said to be in the neighborhood of $180,000; and we men tion it here because it illustrates one of Scrauton's present industrial deficien cies which the near future must cor rect. Teu, perhaps five years hence, orders like this will be coming to Scranton, brought here by the inevit able attractions of cheap fuel, abundant labor and superabundant facilities. The Democratic machine can re spite "Bat" Shea, but it is too late to respite either Shea's victim or the ma chine's doom. POLITICAL NOTES. One guess: For coDgrpsa, J. A, Scranton. For jude. B. VV.

General Hastings is expected this nfternoou and he will get a royal recep tion. i A correspondent of tho Philadelphia Press, writing from Wilkes-Barre, makes ahort work of a dispatch in Candidate ssingerly's paper lust Thursday, the pur port of which went to show that the Uor man tariff bill was a blessing m disguise to Pennsylvania lnrinstrloH. The Record writer had said that tho ulcan Iron works of Wilkes-Barre, with a capital of $1, SCO, 000, had just restored one-half ot the 10 per cent, cut in wanes made last Febru ary and that the 1,2(IU men employed In four of the company's five shops were now working full time. ''Here," says the Press correspondent, "aro six statements, and of the six there is but one that Is true, and that one is that a reduction of 10 per cent, was made Inst February. The capital stock of the Vulcan works Is tSOO.OOUand not 81,600,000. The number of men em ployed is 1150 and not 1,!200. There has been no restoration of 5 per cent, in wages nud the works are fairly bnsy, but not ruuniiig, by any means, to their full ca pacity." Is the Record running a bogus prosperity niuir To the Philadelphia Pi-eis the Lncka wnnna situation has this appearance: "Congressman Scranton appears to have experienced no great difficulty in aecnriug a re-noininatlou lu the Lackawanna dis trict, although the opposition was more than he hns had to encounter in nnv ore. vious canvass. Now that the primaries ere ovor, however, all the Republicans of i be district may to expected to cordially acquiesce iu the result and all will be bci anton men rroin now until tne close of the polls. It has keen Mr. Scrauton's misfortuno heretofore to be beaten in the years between the presidential campaigus, but there- can be no dnucer of auvthinn like that this year. The circumstances urn such that Lackawanna ought to be, and no doubt can be, regarded as one of the entirely safe Republican districts of the state. The importance ot electing every iiepuoncan member or conqress pos sible should be kept iu mind, and a defoat in the Eleventh district would be exceed ingly difficult to explain." Bam Hudson, who,on Sept.l7.will assume editorial control of tho Scranton Times, circulated amoug local Democratto mag nates yesterday, under the expert pilotage of Benator M. E. JlcDonakl. riis partner, W. R. Bell, will arrive next week and put the Times' business affairs iu shape for the grand opening a fortnight hence. It is the intention of the paper's new controllers to publish an aggrersive, non-fnctional Dem ocratic organ, with a complete telegraphic news report and other features new to the present Times. The staff will be increased, and if it lain the woods, to-got Lackawanna Democracy to read as they should, Bell und Hudson aver that they will achieve tbe re. suit. Both gentlemen com highly recom mended and will doubtless be made us wel come as Democrats can be made in Repub lican Lackawanua. As It looks now, only three names will be presented for district attorney: George M. Wa'sjD, John R. Jones and A. J. Col born, Jr. II. W. Lowry decided yesterday afternoon not to let hit name go before the convention. Mr. Lowry had many earn est proffers of support and could undoubt edly have developed considerable strength bad he chosen to remain in the field. His retirement leaves the situation crystallized down to Watson and Jones, with Colborn remaining in it in tbe hope ot being se lected in tbe event of a compromise. Mr, Jcnes is developing strength rapidly, and is believed to be nearly, If not quite, as strong as his chief competitor. Mr. W at son.

Him. W, D. Oi, at Peru, Incl. Goods will shortly oome in from abroad, and for every (4 worth of goods that comes f rom abroad Rome American laborer mnst lie idle one day. In compensation for this idleness the Democratic party proposes to give him cheap goods. The 8,000,000 idle uaon do not ask for cheap goods; they are pleading for work. The 100 workingmen from Philadelphia who knocked vainly at tho door of the ways and means committee room were not asking for tariff reduction; they were not asking for cheap goods, bnt for employment, and for their homes and their fumiliee. They were not even asking for cheap clothes and cheap food. They were asking for man's natural privilege employment. The country can gain no advantage through cheap goods that can at all compare in its ministration of good to the community which comes from tbe universal employment of the people. There is no burden levied at the custom house, whether it is 100 per cent, or 000 per cent, that can compare at all wltb the burden of 8,000,000 of willing workers without anything for their hands to do. COMPLIMENTING MR. YOUNGS. Scranton Neui$. The Thirteenth reglraaut's rifle team maintained its previous character at Mount Gretna and won tbe botly contested regimental prlzo, defeating the crack marksmen of the Sixteenth by tbe hand some score ot 807 to 852. Mr. Youngs, of tnebcRABToN Tribune, maintained his previous record for excellence, scoring t8 oat of a possible 105. He has thus again demonstrated his undisputed title to be the best marksman ia tbe entire state guard, and wins for tbe fourth time the champion Bhot badge of the state of Penn sylvania. We extend to the Thirteenth regiment, and especially to Mr. Youngs, our hearty congratulations. The latter numed gentleman is a person of such ex treme worth, character, efficiency, and withall is so urbane, modest, retlrlug and unassuming at to make his achievements a source of pride to bis regiment, his coun ty, his city and his state. WHAT CLEVELAN DISM COST. Inillanavolii Journal. The annual report of the Mawachnssettn labor bureau shows that tbe total amount of wages paid by tbe manufacturing indus tries of the ptatewas 127.aS0,3i)7in 1893, against 8137,978,501 in WJi, a loss of 810, 1180,104 in tbe earning of the working people of the state. The report also shows a decrease of 33 per cent, in the number of persons employed in manufacturing es tablishment in 1893 ns compared with 1893. It wiil be a loug time before these los.-es will be regained under the new tariff law. ARE APING BUCHANAN. Hon. W. D. Owen, at Ftru, hd. Tbe leaders of Democracy appear uncon scious of what has been going on ia this country for thirty-two years, since they have been ont of power, and aae proceed ing to run tbe government on tbe prin cipals used in Buchanan's administration. They have wrecked the gold surplus and they have borrowed 150,000,000. They hate created a national deficit of 374,000,000. It is the first time since th war that the regular income of the government has not beeu equal to current expenses. THEY WILL REGRET IT. lielbyvitl Rtpub'ican. We believe in laws which enable oar mechanics and laborers to earn enough to support tbeir families and lay by sufficient to buy a home and protect them from want when tho time comes when they are unable to labor as hard as they did in the prime of life. This the McKinley law did, aud we believe that it repeal was wrong, and that the day will come when those who favored it will regret it. IT MAKES A DIFFERENCE. LouUi lll Commercial.
