"Our protectionists have been building defenset to keep you and other nations from competing urith us in our home markets. The tariff reformers art breaking down these defenses." William L. Wilson, author of the Wilson tariff bill, to the London chamber of commerce. Singerly to Visit Us. ; It will be pleasant Intelligence to the citizens' of Lackawanna county, ir respective of paity, that William M. Singerly has consented to appear and to speak here one day during the last week in October. Mr. Singerly, to be sure, is the nominal gubernatorial can. didate of a party for which the deceiv ed wage-earners of this industrial com munity have no possible use; and his visit among us will not win unto him self a single vote. Nevertheless, we are glad that he is coming and frankly bespeak for him a courteous welcome and a patient hearing. Such a reception is his due as the candidate of one of our leading politi cal parties. But it is much more his due as an honest and able man gone estruy into the paths of political error and caught, all too credulously, in the artful partisan net spread for his en- suarement by William F, Harrlty, Mr. Singerly, individually, is worthy of a better fate than the sacrillciul role which he is now forced to play. If there shall be consolation to him in ever so brief a respite from his home environment among "ringstors, roost ers and ruffians," Scranton's hospital, ity is far too generous and far too sym pathetic to draw a partisan dead line, The visit of Mr. Singerly to Seranton ought to bring with it another and a more important advantage. It ought to strike a lusty and a sturdy blow at the fallacious notion that a self-con fessed protectionist like Edward Mer- rifleld, for Instance, has any place on a Democratic congressional ticket. Mr. Singerly has plainly said, through the columns of his Record, that a "protec tion Democrat is a fraud." Unless we much mistake the man, he will not now seek to squirm away from that fair, forcible and emphatic definition, back ed up, as it is, by the lost Democratic national platform. He will, of course, reiterate it, let tue partisan conse quences be what they may. The Republican candidate for county treasurer, Thomas D. Davies, ia a man whose ability has been proved through years of successful business endeavor and whose sterling probity is a household word in Hyde Park. The county finances will not suffer in his hvnest hands. Connecticut's Verdict. Last Monday the people of Connec tlcut held local elections. The party 'line was not drawn in these elections with the same tensity that it would nave oeen naa tue election Deen a state or a congressional one. Never theless, there is a uniformity about the returns from Connecticut which car ries a lesson to all who are not wil fully blind. ' The majorities are not complete yet, but they indicate a Republican major ity sufficient to elect the governor with out the election being thrown Into the legislature at the November election. Of the towns beard from 106 went Re publican, twenty-nine Democratic and twenty-seven were divided. Last year eighty-three went Republican, fifty Democratio and twenty-nine divided. The two missing towns are Sterling, in Windham county, and New Fairfield, in Fairfield county. Both of these were divided in politics last year. The most important Republican . gains have been in the manufacturing towns, where a complete reversal of previous majorities has been made. The people of Connecticut thus take their place along with those of Penn sylvania, Oregon, Maine and New Hampshire, protesting by the one con stitutional and effective means within their reach against the havoc which Democratic incompetency has already wrought and against the still greater turmoil that it threatens to cause in pursuance of the president's command to "go on with the war." With the warm indorsement of the most prominent members of the Lackawanna bar, and the enthusiastic fuvor of his neighbors and friends, re gardless of partisan lines, John It. Jones begins his candidacy for the dis trict attorneyship Becure of his ground and hopeful of the future. That he will be elected, what Democrat dare doubt? The Real Revival. Editor Singerly and his trained staff of industrial ruinbow chasers may cry peace and prosperity to the business interests of this country till doomsday, If they choose; but there will be no peace until the Democratio party( In its present attitude us a tariu smasher, shall be removed as the crowning menace from the forward pathway of American industry; and there will be no permanent and lasting prosperity until the men who conduct business enterprises in this, country are convinced that they are to be pro tected and encouraged by national leg islation, so fur as possible, instead of being made the targets of doctrinaire experiments, class prejudice and legal ized plunder. When President Clevcland,in his now famous letter to Representative Catch, nigs, ot Mississippi a letter which the astute Democrotic national com mittee has been careful to eliminate from the newly-Issued Democratic handbook took his place "with the rank and file of the Democratio party who believe in tariff reform, who know what it is, and who refuse to ac cept the results embodied in THIS (Wilson-Gormau) bill as the close of the war;" when, in another place in this same letter, the president said that the "millions of his countrymen who have fought bravely for tariff re. form should be exhorted to con tinue the struggle, boldly chal lenging to open warfare," there was an end to the promise either of peace or of prosperity which even the much-mottled senate tariff bill at one time held out through the fact that it represented an end to intolerable sus pense. Not content with the ruin which his agitation had wrought, the president exhorts his followers, to con tinue the fight, until the last spark of lingering hope shall have been quench ed among the business men of the United States, and their peerless home market handed over in fee simple to tli 3 manufacturers and merchants of Europe. This, we say, is what the Democratic party is consciously or unconsciously trying to accomplish. It will not suc ceed, for the simple fact that the patrl otic sense of the saving majority of our citizenship will not permit it to sue ceed. But in order to foil its mistaken purpose, the Democratic party must again be mado harmless. In its mad hands power breeds only abuse and responsibility only mania ana ne glect. The business Interests of the country have drawn in, spiration and hope from the re cent election returns; but the one great and steudy revival in. trade will not come, to stay, until there shall be entrusted with legislative and execu tive contr61 a party which does not get dizzy under the influences of power nor mad at the agencies which make for business success. Sturdy Charles Huester, repre senting a solid and substantial element in our mixed citizenship, is meeting with high favor among the people and will be elected recorder with votes to spare. Time to Stop Whining. One of the queer political facta of to day is the extreme touchiness of the Democratio organs at what they call Republican intermeddling. ThaLwas an instance in point when the Harris burg Patriot, the other day, got red in the face and began to call names be cause our esteemed independent con temporary, the Truth, had asked it a few proper questions about the Demo cratic party's attitude toward the tariff. Another is supplied in the following amusing sentence from the Lancaster Intelligencer: The Philadelphia Press maliciously seeks to silt up toe discussion as to wnetur a Democrat can tie a protectionist, which the Uarrisburg Patriot started and which we disposed of, in our judgment, with the statement tnat an tue uemocratlo tariff measures that had been proposed, a well as that which passed, coutaiued protec tion duties: from which we drew what seemed to be the necessary conclusion that the Democratio party favored a measure of protection; and that Democrats favor ing proteotion must be at home in their party. The Intelligencer heads its editorial "Mixing In", very much as if it re garded it a crime for a Republican journal to cross-question the Demo cratic witnesses in the box. But un fortunately the Democratic party it self, and not the Harrlsburg Patriot nor the Philadelphia Press, is responsible for this discussion. When, In its last national platform, that party fiercely inveighed agnlnst protection as "fraud ulent," a "sham," and a violation of the constitution, it gave proper ground for the inquiry whether an honest pro tectionist could consistently remain a Democrat If "all Democratio tariff measures" have "contained protection duties," then the Intelligencer must admit, unless It repudiate Its party's platform, that "all Democratio tariff measures" have been, to some extent, " fraudulent and unconstitutional." Democrats who favor protection, ac cording to the highest Democratio standard, favor fraud, favor unconsti tutionality; and yet the Intelligencer wants them "to be at home" in the party which has deliberately cast them out, with the indelible brand of fraud upon their garments. As for Republicans "Mixing In," we suspect they will continue to mix, whether the Democracy likes it or not. When a Democrat, bearing this stamp, comes before them, as in this district, Land asks for votes to help elect him to congress, it becomes a proper and time ly duty for Republicans to "mix in." No citizen of Lackawanna county is unconcerned in this discusslop. Each has a legitimate right to know whether Mr. Merrifield, claiming to be a pro tectionist, can be a Democrat, or whether, claiming to be a Democrat, he can at the same time be a true blue protectionist, with grit enough to stick by protection. And if there be any other districts in the United States where a similar anomaly prevails on the Democratic congressional ticket, it becomes the duty of Republicans also to "mix in" there. The Democratic party Itself has raised this issue. Now let it face the music and stop its whining. The Democratic local organ cannot alter facts by its use of hard names. The Democratic party may have had protectionist leaning once, but it has since vustly deteriorated. 'It is now the party of free trade; or of a revenue tariff, which is as near as any scheme of government ever gets to free trade. The Democratic party has declared that protection is fraudulent and un constitutional, that its continuance as a part ot our revenue policy is a fraud and a sham, and that it ought to be wiped out. If this is not free trade, pray, what is? It is far from probable that the discredited tricksters who try to ma nipulate Pittstou local politics so as to fill their pockets and the pockets of their relatives will ever be permitted to declare a dividend at the expense of any Seranton paper. For proof of his fitness for re-election, Clerk cf the Courts John H. Thomas has only to refer to his record in office. It Is his best indorsement. Clarence E. Pryor has served the people of this county too faithfully in the position of prothouotary to fail of a haudnome re-election. POLITICAL NOTES. Beginning next Tuesday evening, 100 Republican orators will start out to in form the citizens ol Philadelphia why they should vote the straight Republican ticket. Nearly all ot the best talkers in the city and state have been enlisted in the fight, and they will be topped off dur ing the closing days of the contest, by Congressman Thomas B. Heed, of Main, and Governor William AIcKinley, of Ohio. The men who have volunteered in clude ex-Governor Beaver, Seoretary of luternal Affairs Thomas J. Stewart, Gen eral Latto, District Attorney Ueorg4 8. Graham, Congressman John B. Robinson, Colonel Clayton McMichoel, City Solicitor Charles F. Warwick, Coroner Samuel H. Asbbridge, James L. Miles, C. K. Horr, Representative Harry F. Walton, Con gressman Wanger, Hampton L. Carson, M. J. O'Callaghan, Congressman Bingham, Wcnchel Hartmao, Elian P. Smitbers, Thomas L. Hicks, Congressman Robert Adams, jr., bamuel reitz, liarry llall, or Mercer; Congressman Haruier, Thomas V. Cooper, Congressman hoy burn, ex-Senator B. F. Hughes and Ualuaba A. Grow. A. J. Colborn, ot this city, has been urgently In vited by David Martin and others to form one of the number, and it permitted by his physician may accept, e e e Colonel Samuel W. Boyd, of Wilkes Burre, is inclined to augment rather than abate his ire at Collector Grant Herring. "We have no sympathy," the colonel writes, "with any Democratic officeholder holding his position at the hands of bis party who prefers to keep Republicans under lit in ratber tnan worthy Democrats. Herring would have been one ot the most aggressive kickers had Cleveland kept feu man in tue place lie now occupies. That being bo, he cannot feel aggrieved because he is criticised by Democrats for not doing what Cleveland did, kick the Republicans out. lie owes his place to De mocracy, and is justly bound to have Democrats in places under him." Who would have suspected the chlvalrio and amiable colonel could be so cruel to his party's plank on civil service reform? e A systematic plan is being pursued by inaepenaent nepuoucans oi Indiana coun ty to defeat Judge Harry White for re election. Petitions are being circulated in nearly every town in the Twenty-first Congressional district, seeking indepen dent Republican signers and endorsing D. B. Hoiuer, candidate for congress in this district, and the Republican state candi date. The object is to place ex-Judge bltttri mime on the nomination papers anu witn tue eirengm tne state candidates will lend the movement the ludiana inde pendents hope to defeat tho regular Re publican nominee, Judge White. The carriers of the petitions argue that should Judge Blair be elected ludiaua county will be given liquor license. Hundreds of sign ers hav e been obtained. e ' e ' The Ilarrisburg Patriot has evidently been misinformed when itsays: "Michael J. Burke, of Carbondale, has been renomina ted by the Democrats of the Fourth Lack awanna legislative district. His opponeut is Charles P. O'Malley, a 'young Republi can lawyer, who also claims to be confi dent of election. As the district has a normal Democratio majority of 500 and Mr. Burke has carried It twice, O'Malley's claims are disputed by the most sanguine Republicans." Mr. O'Malley's claims are not only uot disputed by the most san guine Republicans; they are conceded, in many caces, by Democrats themselves. The people of the Fourth district do not want a representative at Ilarrisburg who was opposed to free text books. Reports to the National Republican campaign committee from the Seventeenth district now represented by Mr. Wolver ton, and in which ex-Congressman Buck alew is a candidate are ot tue most en courngitig character. The unpopularity of Mr. Buckalew and the intense dissatis faction with Democratio rule it is be hoved wlU'overturn the 6,000 majority by which Mr. Wolverton waselootei in 189.', and land Monroe H. Kulp a winner with votes to spare. Free wool and free lum ber do not ret well upon the farmers and the timber owners of the t'efent tenth. ' e Democratio organs In - Luzerne which couiplaiu at the apathy eviuced by the Democracy of Lackawanna roust expect the voters of this county to relish being thrown ont of work by Democratio nation al mismanagement. e Hon. N. F. Underwood, of Preston, Re publican candidate for the legislature tn Wayne county, was one of the honorary delegates appointedto represent the slate at the National Agricultural congress which met at Parkersburg. West Virginia, on Tuesday, Mr. Underwood is widely Known as a capable ana emclent repre sentative of the farmers of Pennsylvania, he will thU fall receive a large Democratic vote. A meetintr of the new Retrablloan league of Luzerne county will be held tonight in ine new olub rooms on ooutn Main street, Wilkesbsrre. to take preliminary steps toward the big reception which is to be tendered to General Hastings and party Oct. 24. This league is entering into the campaign work with energy and enthu siasm, and the Luzerne returns will doubt less bear consDicuous evidence of Its labors. HOW NOT TO DO IT. Lancatter h'ew Era The Western Associated Press, which boasts of being a great news gatherer, on Monday evening gave its patrons lu this city another illustration of "how not to do it," by leaving them in ignoranoe of the tact tnat the supreme court at nttsDurg had given the final adjudication in the long-contested Stevens will case. This de cision, which secures to",a public charity of this city the Stevens legacy of $53,000, was one of great interest, but only the roaders of the New Era got the news. The United Press doesn't blow its own trumpet very loudly, but it gets there every time with news of interest to the readers of the New Era. And when you see it there, you can he assured it is true. AN IDIOTIC ATTEMPT. Indianapolis Journal The Democratio campaign book which is now beins circulated by the congress ional committee shows that pages from 208 to 225 are missing. Tue index, which has not been changed, snows tnat tuese pages contained Mr. Cleveland's letter to Chairman Wilson and bis letter to Con gressman Catchiugs. The pages were cut out after the matter had been stereotyped and when it was impossible to change the numbering or the pages or tne index, xnis idiotic attempt to suppress the president's letters is an insult to tho intelligence of tlielpeople, and is eminently characteristic of the party ot false pretenses.
