When the present mnnngers of the Scranton Times took hold of that un fortunate newspaper property they promised several Innovations, and they have kept their word. One of the first of these Imported devices for beguiling attention was the use of a campaign libel that was at once bold, picturesque and unblushing. The assertion was made by these roving bushwhackers, about a life-long resident of Scranton a man who has for years been promin ently and honorably Identified with the commercial development of this city; and who had always dealt honorably with his neighbors, his patrons and his employes that he had while In the city council said "one dollar a day was enough for a worklngman." This as sertion itself was a lie, plain, bold and flat; but it could have been overlooked upon the plea of unfamlllarlty with the man and with the field had the prompt denial of Prank H. demons ended the slander and brought forth a manly apology. But no such apology has been forth coming. Upon the contrary, the lie has been reiterated with-all the embellish ments and fantastic garniture that malice could Invent. It has figured In satire, re-appeared in Jest and bobbed up even in the labored efforts of the bushwhackers to be serious. If it had been an original He; if it had even dis played some faint suggestions of no velty or common sense, It might, as a He, have passed Into local annals as a tolerably fair specimen of Democratic campaign workmanship. Instead of this, alas, it Is merely a putrid, second hand He, ghastly in Its age and insuffer able in its odor. It has been stuck to with the instinctive tenacity that the buzzard displays when grasping In its scrawny talons some particularly obso lete specimen of carrion; and it hangs from the paper's masthead as an appro priate symbol of the "rejuvenated" Journal's present character. A second innovation has been sup plied in the same paper's treatment of the Hastings meetings. Upon the sup position that its readers wanted more lies, Instead of news, the bushwhackers have put Into type, as purporting to come from speakers at these meetings, words which were not used, and sup pressed words which were. Here, again, we encounter a departure from the tra ditions of our hum drum provincial Journalism which may, from the stand point of .Philadelphia bar-rooms, be real enterprise and genuine tact; but Which, according to conservative, homely, up-the-state standards, meas ures up to first class scurrility. It is possible that In the course of time our citizens may be educated up to the point where truth will no longer be regarded as even a desirable element of news; but we doubt if this point has been approximated to, as yet; and we are not sure that such brilliant geniuses as are now trying to introduce into our homely community this new dispensation of Journalists filth, will ever be sufficiently compensated for their disltngulshed powers in so small a field, to make It worth their whlle'to wait. Candidate SIngerly is a gentleman. There will be no blackguarding .him in the Republican newspapers, when he comes to Scranton. One of the Interesting spectacles of of the moment is the Honorable M. T. Durke, of Carbondale, Journeying to and from the houses of his constituents with a copy of the garbled and bungled Legislative Record under hit arm. Mr. Burke's mission is to convince the Fourth district voter, by means of a typographical blunder in the Record's make-up, that he voted in the affirma tive on the Farr free text book bill. Mr, Burke is sly. He doesn't challenge Mr. Farr to produce the evidence that he voted Just the other way; he simply plays the bunco trick and then deludes himself with the idea that he has the voters fooled. The effort to conjure up a political warfare between creeds noeds to be frowned upon by Republicans and de cent Democrats alike. There are some subjects too sacred to be consigned to the demagogue's irreverent tongue. Religious Prejudice-Mongers. When General Hastings, in his superb speeches in this city, from a vein of pleasantry grew suddenly serious and said that, if elected governor of Teiin sylvanla he would take and keep an oath binding him to support the consti tution of the state and of the United States, without reference to race or creed, he uttered the true American sentiment on this new element of dis turbance which certain excitable vic tims of religious prejudice are endeav orlng to introduce into Pennsylvania politics, and he said neither too much nor too little. Those persons who are raising what Is known as the A. P. A. cry with a view to capturing a few fluctuating votes, regardless of all other conse quences, deserve no keener rebuke than to be let severely alone. The position of the Republican party on this question Is not open to reasonable misconstruc tion. It stands squarely and flat-footed on the constitution; and there is not an Iota in its past nor an atom In its pres ent composition which lends color to the belief that it would seek to debar any citizen from the full and free exer else of all his guaranteed privileges as a citizen, on account of religious faith. The world is happily constructed so that we all have honest and reasonable differences of opinion. There are dlf ferences in politics and differences in religion; and men, In both fields of thought, often get narrowed down until they become enthusiasts or fools. But It Is the proud distinction of the Amerl can government that of all the govern ments of the earth It alone presents a complete practical divorcement of church from state; of theology and eccleslastlclsm from politics and public offlceholdlng. It is not probable that the Republican party ever contained a man of any prominence who for an in stant entertained the thought of over turning this perfect liberty; but if it did, the man represented only his own folly and is not to be magnified into the Importance of a public political Issue. The attempt to rest his whole claim to re-election upon a typographical error in the Legislative Record In Ilk one of Representative Burke's tricks; but will it succeed? Hon. Robert W. Archbald. As candidate for law iudre Hon. Tt. W. Archbald is among the best equipped of any upon the list of men who have been suggested by the Republican party for offices of trust in Lacka wanna county. From boyhood up Judge Archbald has been favored with the best educational advantages. When quite young he expressed a desire to become a civil engineer and spent two seasons with an enelneerlnir pnnw. He afterward became impressed with the idea of entering the legal profes sion and with that end In view entered Yale college, from which he graduated with high honors in 1867. Entering the office of Hand & Post as a student. by hard work and close application he arose by degrees to the hlgheBt posi tion in the courts of the county. By his thorough knowledge of the conditions and neyls of the people of the Lackawanna valley, gained bv life long residence, as well as by his valu able experience as a Jurist. Judue Archbald is more amply qualified for the trust than any candidate that might be 'mentioned. Ills) opinions have been universally commended for their research and learning; he is now In the prime of life with mental and physical endowments unimpaired, .and is in every way fitted to continue the trust mat nas been imposed by the people of the .county. His candidacy has the additional recommendation that its successful Issue before the people, while re taining upon the bench a Jurist of state renown, will, at the same time, rebuke the principle which seeks to Inject par tisan considerations into the selection of the judiciary. In a pre-eminent sense, Judge Archbald is the leader of the law Judges of northeastern Penn sylvania; and to dismiss him without cauBe from a bench which he has sig nally adorned would be an exhibition of poor discernment and careless gra titude of which 'the- voters of this county are assuredly Incapable. It would preserve the nubile from an unusual infliction of lying if the Demo crats actually had some real arguments to present. Frank H. demons. Of all the Republican candidates who have this fall become targets for abuse from Democratic organs probably Frank H. Clemong is the moBt promi nent on account of the relentless man ner in which he has, been pursued by the campaign liars. It Is a pleasure to state, however, that Mr. Clemons is among those who are best fortified tn endure the Lilliputian attacks from cheap paragraphers of the Detiocratlo press who usually do not lata the trou ble to verify any statement they may make. A native Scrantonlan, Frank Clemons has passed the greater portion of his life among the people who are now asked to support hla Candidacy for one of the most Important offices in the county. The record of his entire career both in publlo life and as a private citizen is befor the voters of Laclia- wanna county, and none' can question nis aDinty and faithfulness to any trust. All through his life, Frank H. Clemons has been a staunch Republi can, and as chairman of the Republican city fight in 1888 and in 1S92 served the party in a way that insured vlctorv nil along the line. Vote for clean candi dates and good government: vote for the principles that make this the great est government upon the globe; vote for I- rank H. Clemons for sheriff. The Scranton Times seems to be edited these days pretty much nn th Jack-knife-and-beer-bottle basis. It is a novelty, all right, but will It last? THE FIELD OF rOLITITS. The opinion of Assistant District Aitnr. ney O'Neill, of Carbondale, on the pro posed new county scheme is interesting. Ho tells P. A. Barrett: "I don't see how it is going to be established. The rnnatl tution is very particular In the creation or new counties. First It requires us to get an area of 400 square miles and then a population of no less than 20.0(10 nermln In getting this area we must keep at least ten miles away from the county seat of any other county, and in getting the population we are not allowed to take irom any county a number that would re duce the population of snld county below 20,000. Susquehanna county has no more than the required population, hence we can Dorrow no population from that side, Scranton, the county seat of Lackawanna. Is so near that we can't ea much below Jormyn, and ns for Wayne it has nothing to spare, it requires a population of 43. 000 for a separate judicial district, so you see, the real thing we are after a court House is simply out of the question." "The reception given General Hastings anu ms party at Scranton evidences," says the Philadelphia Press, "that the Re publicans in that section of the state are as wide awake as those elsewhere. At the February election the people of Lack awanna county entered a very de elded protest against Democratic mis rule and Incompetency with a Republican majority of a little over 5,000. The Re publican vote was almost 2,000 greater than ever before. All that part of tho state has great Industrial interests which have been affected by the Democratic purpose to wipe out protection, and under President Cleveland's declared Intention to carry on the war must continue to bo affected, unless tho people elect a Repub lican congress and give such Republican majorities as to paralyze the Democratic destructlonists. That Is the most direct way to restore business activity, Indus trial peace and general confidence." According to a prominent Luzerne Dem ocrat interviewed in Philadelphia by an inquirer man "things look blue for Con gresHmanHines.forlnnddltlon to the fear ful loss which the Democratic tlckot must sustain by reason of the conditions the administration has brought about. Hlnes has estranged any number of his old political friends by his lavish promises of postoliiccs. He has shown himself wonderfully lacking in the moral courage necessary to Bay 'no, and there Is not a poBtofflce In Luzerne that he has not promised to half a dozen persons. Every appointment that has been made has aroused the Ire of those persons who have been disappointed by Hines, and there has never been a congressional candidate in Luzerne for whom bo many knives have been sharpened. It appears as though Lelsenring will win in a canter." This covers the facts. "Before I leave your city I want to say that In no other place In the state that I have been In, this campaign, have I found bo many evidences of business thrift and push and life as I find here in Scranton," said Congressman Charles V. Stone, of Warren, yesterday. "The people here seem to have almost con quered the hard times. With a vigorous forward stride, by the election of a Re publican congress, your citizens ought to regain lost ground with little, if any, dif ficulty. I wish the remainder of the country ' was as prosperous, under the Wilson-Gorman bill, as Scrunton seems to be, In spile of that bill." "If tho election in our district were held tomorrow," said General Frank Reeder, of Easton, going up to Carbondale yes terday, "Judge Klrkpatrlck would de feat Hart for congress and have votes to spare. The people all know Klrkpatrlck; whereas very few of them know anything about Hart, and what little those few do know about him, doesn't particularly strengthen him In their estimation. lio sldes, the Eighth has had Its full share of Democratic times. It Is as ready as any other section to confess its mistake and change back again." The announcement that Isaao E. Long, of Wllkes-Iiarre, Is a genuine candidate for mayor will pleasantly surprise his nu merous Scranton friends. During twenty years' scurrying hither and yon, In this valley, .in Bearch of the elusive "ad." Grandpa Long has accumulated a host ot friendships which, If ho be In the race in earnest, ought to be of groat political assistance. Mayor .Long would sound nice and it would also mean business. The solicitude of the Wilkes-Barre News-Dealer as to the whereabouts of Orator Colborn, of Scranton," will be up- pcused In due season. Samplo Tammany Pull. From the Marino Journal. The amount contributed to the civic treasury annually from the earnings of the various ferries that transport to and from Manhattan Island the people who do business here but live elsewhere Is $225, 000. This seems fairly Just and equltablo, and a pretty god Income. Taking tho earnings of waterfront property on a simi lar basis, the dock department under an honest administration ought to yield at least $2,5uO,000 per year Income, and $1,500, 000 would be a generous estimate of the expenses, thus leaving a net pront of $1,000,000, Instead of a prospective loss this year of probably $2,000,000. Ilefore Tam many got now ot it, tne uock department did yield a fair annual profit, but the gross receipts are now only $1,800,000, and tho expenses, estimated from the report filed with the mayor last February, will amount to nearly $4,000,000. Ho Might Exercise the Pen, Anyhow. From the Washington Post. President Cleveland might write Mr. Hill a little letter with the pen with which he didn't sign the tariff bill.
