"Our prolettumists hate been building defenses to keep you and other nations from competing with tu in our home markets. The tariff reformers are breaking down these defenses." William L. Wilson, author of the Wilson tariff bill, to tbe London clamber of commerce. How to Reach the Masses. With the npproachingtennlnation of the religious rcvlvul which has attract ed the atteutiou of so many thousands of people, the question uppermost in the minds of those interested in the work is "How to reach the masses" so constantly referred to by Mr. Hchiv erea. The good results of the meotings no one will question, but whether they are permanent or transient will, to a great extent, depend on the clergy and officers of the various churches of the city. Over a, thousand persons have announced their intention at the vari ous meetings to lead better lives and regularly attend a place of wdrship, but a still larger number had not the moral courage to declare their conver sion openly In the meetings. What is to become of them? The committee have a list of the acknowledged con verts, but are the larger number who require a little, but immediate atten tion, to be abandoned altogether? Tills is the gist pf the great ques tion of "reaching the masses, and which bids fair to be neglected unless more definite steps ar immediately taken. A solution of the question is therefore respectfully ottered to the city pastors' union. The present is the opportune time to work out the great question; the religious enthusiasm in the city is at its height, and It is for the pastors' union to lead the way or become responsible for forfeiting 75 per cent, of the benefits of the mission meetings. Scranton has many churches, but no visiting association worthy of the name which works in a systematic manner. There are ninny associations and organizations where much energy is unfortunately wasted by solitary and individual ac tion. The waste of time and money is deplorable, Inasmuch as with a little more effort the churches could com bine and o rganize a district visiting association for the benefit of all de nominations. In union is strength, aud it is unnecessary to enter Into the details of the system, as H is apparent to any one taking the slightest inter est in the matter that one city associa tion with representatives from each church could with comparative ease overhaul the entire city and recruit the churches beyond description. The question before the religious ele ment of Scranton at present is, "How to reach the masses." The solution is suggested, and it remains to be seen if it Is worthy of adoption. A vote for Joseph A. Scranton Is a vote for honest tariff reform; for a re formation of tho tariff performed by friends of American industry, not by its deadly enemies. There is something almost pathetic In William L. Wilson's remark to a reporter, Immediately after he had re ; turned from tjiut London chamber of Commerce banquet, that "they," meaning his English admirers, "will have to look out for us when we get free raw imaterial, for we will com mand supremacy in manufactures, our merchant marine will be restored and our merchants will appear in neutral markets." Does Professor Wilson sin cerely believe such nonsense as this? Being an impractical theorist, wrap ped up in impossible dreams, it is pos sible that he may; but what other Democrat does? Is it probable that England would work so hard to have us converted to free trade merely in order to help us to beat it in trade com petition in neutral markets ? Professor Wilson is becoming quite humorous these days. Frank Clemons Is the business man's candidate tor sheriff. His election M'ill insure a business-like administration of one of the most important aud exacting offices in the entire county government. Women in Local Politics. The time has gone by in this country when the organization of earnest women for tbe purpose of advancing moral reforms can be Inughel down by cheap jeers and gibes. Those forces in New York city which. for t!eeades have fostered and developed systematic crime in order to turn it into a source of personal and political revenue may have their sneers at the so-called "campaign of influence" planned by the women of Gotham who are about to come to Dr. Park hurst's aid ; but their levity will be short-lived, and their after regrets much more poignant in consequence. Under the personal leadership of Mrs, Charles Russell Lowell, the women in the churches of the metropolis, aud all other workeis of charity and benevo lence, will mass their energies in be half of municipal purification, and their influence will become Irresistible. When aHkcd what were her plans, Mrs. Lowell recently made reply: "Briefly, they are to so instruct women that they will see aud understand Just where tho errors in our form of munici pal government exist aud what the remedlea are. Women should be as much interested in decent government as men, for they have the same inter ests to support and the same oppres sions to bear. Perhaps this argument does not appeal to all of them, but it is well substantiated fact just the same. Parlor meetings will be held, aud from these meetings I have no doubt that the masses will become inspired with the spirit of reform." Is there any thing unwomanly in this? Is it not, indeed, one of the highest fields of use fulness in which the tact, keen percep tion aud ready sympathies of the'sex could engage? It is a historical fact that no great reform was ever accomplished in poli tics without the aid of a strong sup porting moral sentiment. In the eu genderiug of this sentiment woman lias always been foremost in the churches; she was foremost in the cru sades against slavery; she is foremost in the light against intemperance, and it is simply following out the natural order that she should now assume a foremost attitude in the war which is waging against prostituted local gov ernment and hardened veuality in pub lic olllce. The men may have to do the voting and the shooting, if it should come to that; but the women will ex cel In singing aud in praying and In the great contributory and supple mentary agencies which lead up to the ballot booth or the bullet mould. Governor McKinley states the case in a nutshell when he says: "The most certain market that the American farmer can get is tho American mar ket. England does not buy anything lu this country that she can get any where else in the world, yet the Wilson tariff law invites the merchants of that country to come here to sell their goods. Ninety per cent, of the products of ag riculture in this country are consumed in this country, the other 10 per cent. going abroad. The Republican party is looking after 90 per cent.; the Demo cratic party gives its attention to the 10 per ceut." Republicanism Boiled Down, The Republicans of Massachusetts know how to draft a platform that means something? This Is it: "The principles of the Republicans of Massa chusetts areas well-known as the com monwealth itself; well-known as the republic; well-known as liberty; well- known as justice. Chief among them are: An equal share In government for every citizen; best possible wages for every workman; the American mar ket for American labor; every dollar paid by the government, both the gold and silver dollars of the eoustilutlou, and their paper representatives, hon est and unchanging In value, and equal to every other; better Immlgra- gration laws; no tramp, anarchist, criminal or pauper laborto be let in, so that citizenship shall not be stained or polluted. Sympathy with liberty and republican government at home and abroad; Americanism everywhere; the flag never levered nor dishonored; no surrender in Samoa; no barbarous queen beheading men in Hawaii; no lynch ing; no punishment without trial; faith kept with the pensioner; no de serving old soldier lu the poorhouse; the suppression of dram drinking and dram selling; a school at tho public charge open to all the children, and free from partisan or sectarian control. No- distinction of birth or religious creeds in the rights of American citi zenship; clean politics; pure adminis tration; no lobby; reform of old abuses; leadership along loftier paths; minds ever open to the sunlight and the morning, ever open to new trutli and new duty, as the years bring their les sous." What more could be asked? The Wilkks-Barre News-Dealer says: "Republican organs, like the Scranton Tribune, tell us that the rich man is willing to pay his share of the taxes for the support of the gov ernment. But he Isn't. The rich man is human like everybody else. He won't pay any more taxes than he can possibly help. A Democratic congress caused aa Income tax to compel tuo wealthy to bear their share of the bur den of taxation." The rich man, if he be honest, is as willing to pay his share as is the honest poor man, who tries to squirm out of paying his just debts. If the News-Dealer's conten tion be true, the income tax simply punishes the innocent in order that the tho perjured guilty may escape. A rogue who is worth that much will lie about it, bribe the tax-gatherer or do some other mean trick. Is this Demo cratic Justice? Out upon such legal ized theft, by which the government sanctions class distinctions and puts unequal burdens upon its citizens ! "While it would be exaggera tion," said Professor Wilson to-his Lon don entertainers, "to say that the tar iff bill which became a law a month ago is in itself the overthrow of the whole protective system, it marks the first and the most difficult step In the revolution which will go forward from this time by its own impetus." But the party that foisted it upon the coun try will go forward by the impetus sup plied from a vigorous contact with the people at the polls forward,dowuward aud outward. The personality of Oliver Wen dell Holmes was one of the most do lightful in our literature, He was a true wit, lacking mean stings; a true philosopher who had alway an eye for the bright side of things. His poetry is loveable because he, himself, was so; we admire it because it reveals to us a man in whom gentleness, gen erosity, culture and shrewd mother wit were united in a rare and au ex quisite blend. The Democrat who represents Lack awanna county in the state senate would be very lonesome and very pow erless when General Hastings occupies tho governor's chair. That is why the people of this district, with au eye to needed results, propose to elect James U. Vauglian. With the Democratic county can didates cutting each other's throats, politically, four whole weeks before election, where will they be on elec tion day? political .Totes. Editor Theodore Hart, of tbe Pittston Gazette, is of the opiuion that no Bane man, least of all Lawyer Hibbs, whom the Democrats of the Secoud Luzorue district bnve pitted against Representative J. Crawford Harvey, of Harveyvlllc, aud who doesn't say a word, will attempt to leconciie the ridiculous somersaulting of tho Democracy during tbe past two years: and tbe moat sensible course suggested for the hide-bound Democratic partisan, go far as brother Hart has observed, is to follow the example of Congressman Alien, ot Mississippi, in tbe closing days of tin Inst Reunion, us be despairingly gave up any thought of harmonizing the antics of his party lenders, yet tenaciously clung t the parly name, aud Irankly exclaimed, "J am a Democrat but tbe Lord only kuous why I" The man who boasts that be "was born a Democrat," and consequently can never tbiuk of being anything elre, may possibly, in tbe opinion of Mr. Hart, be able to so con sole himself aud fall in with the party procession, oven tub year like tbe Ne.t York Sun, which pointedly described the Democratic situation, tbe other day, it. these words: "For tbe first time it ii thought necessary for a party to run it national campaigu on lines of self-denun-ciation asi well as of praise. A campaign of reform is invoked by tbe organization already in power and seeking to be kept there. The arguments for n-form and the abuses demanding reformation arealike founded on the party's own record! It is like the cut chasing its own tail." Bui even this candid confession is discounted by the fact that Father Dana, of the Sun, joins in tbe chase with all tbe giddiness o. the most frisky kitten. Tbe Democratic newspapers In tbe Six teenth district naturally take delight in tnanutactuing stories of Rupublkai dis scusion, this being about tbo only kind of mannfacturing possible under the now tariff bill. Never tholes, the compromise candidacy of Frederick C. Leonard is cor dially received by Republicans in all pans of the district, and is as certain to dj suc cessful at tbe polli as if there bad been no prolonged conference deadlock, with It inevitable legacy of disappointments and bitterness.
