Last night, .after six months delay,
during which common and select coun
cil fell into a deadlock over the award
ing of the contract, common council
generously condescended to let these
property owners have the privilege of
paying for the paving of a public thor
oughfare that now resembles more
nearly a slough of despond than a re

Harding has displayed fine executive

The Tribune, In printing election
news, does not permit Its preferences to
overshadow the actual facts. The
county troanurership Is in doubt, with
the ofllclal count of ballots necessary
to decide the authentic result. Hence,
until that count Is ended, this Journal
Is not making any claims. By the same
rule, while we have every reason to be
lieve that Frank H. Clcmons has been
elected Bheiiff by a plurality exceeding
seventy-five, we shall, until the subject
Is authoritatively decided, keep our col
umns open for any new facts. The day
when people would tolerate the delib
erate falsification of election claims by
partisan newspapers to fit their edi
torial bias has passed in this country,
except In the remote backwoods.
The Serious Side of It.
There will be, for some weeks to
come, nn outpouring of the agitated
Democratic mind In attempted explana
tion of why it so happened. The Demo
cratic party, always noted for Its ex
pertness in the philosophy of defeat,
wilt this time win new laurels by its
sapient interpretation of how It got
knocked out. No repudiation of Its
teachings ever long disturbs it. Like
the colored Tennessee postmaster, who
remarked that "no administration could
change quicker than he could," It has
to be said of the Democracy that no al
teration In the manifest current of pub
lic opinion can be too radical to deter It
from forsaking precedent and principle
and from getting "in the swim."
Any other party, under the humilia
tion of a populor reversal of confidence
which Is utterly without parallel In the
history of our politics, would ponder
long and thoughtfully whether it had
any genuine excuse for further exist
ence; whether, Indeed, it ought not to
follow the historic advice of Wilbur F.
Storey, founder of the Chicago Times,
when, Just after Hancock's defeat In
18S0, he penned his celebrated editorial,
entitled "LetltDie." Butthe Democratic
party, In this one respect, Is manifestly
no ordinary party. Founded upon no
central principle, It has nevertheless
managed to hold together in substan
tially Its present form during more than
forty years of strife and vicissitude,
with no greater bond of union than an
overmastering appetite for public
spoils; and this same greed may be con
fidently expected to Insure Its prompt
recuperation from the present defeat,
and to bring it again In the arena at
the very next call.
The Republican, therefore, who anti
cipates an easy pathway to presidential
victory In 1896 misinterprets the teach
ings of history. There Is an element of
danger In the sheer momentum of the
present avalanche. Had the Democra
cy, two years ago, captured congress by
only a small majority It would .no doubt
have escaped many of the excesses of
unexpected power, and by the same
rule Republicans, in this moment of
overflowing triumph, must be admon
ished to keep cool tempers and level
heads. The country has not entrusted
the Republican party with a commis
sion to revolutionize this government.
It has turned to the Republican party,
In all soberness and candor, because the
other party to which It had previously
turned mistook Its favor for boundless
license and abused Us partially by Inor
dinate carelessness.
The Democratic party Is not dead. It
Is only momentarily stunned. The big
pluralities of the last two years, first
' on one side and then on the other, show
the growing mobility of the popular will
and Invest even the greatest victories
with the solemnity of serious responsi
bility, and the ever present fear of sac
rificing public favor through the lack
of adequate self-control.
When Quay predicted a quarter of a
million, he knew.
Frank H. Clemons will without doubt
be the next sheriff of Lackawanna
county; but if by any accident he should
not be, his opponent, Mr. Bailey, would
enter the ofllce realizing that neither
Mr. Clemons nor any Republican news
paper during the progress of a heated
campaign forgot the common courte
sies that obtain among gentlemen and
descended to personal slander and
blackguardism. We regret that the op
position cannot truthfully say the same
thing.
The Democratic party In Lackawanna
county is sadly In need of a new leadership.
The Philosophy of It.
It Is undoubtedly true that there Is a
good deal of unnecessary atmosphere
churning In the political discussions of
the present day, just as there Is too
much "barnstorming" on the American
stage. The one, like the other, is cal
culated to amuse rather than edify the
Intelligent cpectator. But we are un
prepared to agree with those who sum
marily assume that this tendency to
bathos la on the increase and that the
men of today are distinctly Inferior to
their distinguished sires. Does not the
very fact that those who are not fasci
nated by buffoonery on the stump and
on the stage can sit back comfortably
and laugh at it prove that we as a peo
ple are moving on?
Once, you will remember, there were
no genial chaffers even In politics.
Everybody got profoundly serious over
the gyrations of hla favorite partisan
orator Just as he did over those of his
favorite expounder of theology or
spouter of heroic verse; and the luck
less wight caught snickering up his
sleeve, whether at stump meeting or In
church, was promptly dubbed skeptic
and led out. The amiable temper of a
public which, after all the hurrah-boy
fervor of bass-drum rally and torch
light parade, can settle back in its easy
chair, pick Its teeth and digest the news
in Its favorite paper while It also di
gests its recent meal is not a symptom
of retrogression but of progress; not n
token of degeneracy but rather a sign
of returning common Bense.
There Is only one phase of the politi
cal outlook, viewed from a philosophic
standpoint, that Is discouraging. That
is the factor represented by those who,
lacking the virility cither to cheer or
smile, can find no better pastime than
to Bit back and growl. There are kick
ers In politics who kick from honest
principle, and they arc heroes. But
there are also other kickers who kick
simply out of acidulous habit, and they
are Just plain bores. One of the pleas
ant circumstances of thjs autumnal
canvass for the control of the next con
gress Is that the sour-stomach kicker
has quite effectually disappeared. Like
the Mugwump and the Arab he has
folded his tent and silently stolen
away.
The retirement of Colonel J. D. Laclar
from the managing editorship of the
Scranton Republican Is announced.
Colonel Laclar's connection with Scran
ton Journalism spans an eventful quar
ter of a century, during which time the
colonel has displayed most faithful and
honorable qualities. He has particu
larly distinguished himself by his
thorough mastery of local and national
politics, In which special field he ranks
deservedly high. It Is reported that
Colonel Laclar will begin the new year
In a responsible and lucrative po
sltion on the editorial staff of the
Philadelphia Press. If this be true, the
Press is to be congratulated. Colonel
Laclar's successor on the Republican
has not, to our knowledge, yet been se
lected.
The Indiscriminate mixing up of the
words "plurality" and "majority" is
again vexing the soul of the man who
bets. For his benefit, as well as for
general information. It may be. well
to explain that "plurality" means the
excess of one leading candidate over his
nearest rival; while "majority" means
his net excess over all rivals. It would
be easier to Blgnal to Mars, however,
than to get the average writer for news
papers to observe this advantageous
distinction.
Christianity, the doctrine of non-partisan
municipal government, a great popular
demand for honesty in olllclal life, are
all actively In evidence now. Party
landslides are not infrequent; they come
and are burled beneath other landslides.
The landslide beneath which Tammany Is
burled is of the permanent variety."
Wedded to Its Idol.
New York Sun: "Dearer than ever Is
David B. Hill to the unterrlfled, weariless,
indomitable Democracy of New York! He
ha: made the (greatest political light
witnessed In this land since Andrew Jack
son encountered and defeated tho United
States bank and the money power more
than half a century ago. He has made it
disinterestedly, heroically, uncompromis
ingly. Ho has proved himself the bravest,
ablest and steadiest champion of Demo
cratic Ideas and policies. He has estab
lished himself as the true chief of the
national Democratic party. The situa
tion is not a Joyful one for tho Democ
racy or for Hill; but the future haB ample
opportunities of recovery and develop
ment, and tho glory of consistency and
lidelity will be theirs who remain true to
the principles of Jefferson, Jackson and
Tllden."
Two Parties Arc Sufficient.
Washington Star: "Whatever the out
come, the country cannot but be shown
that there is little to be gained by a divi
sion among throe faiths and that the best
legislative results ure obtained with two
strong parties facing each other, one with
a small majority and the other with an
ulert, vigilant, determined minority. The
example of France, with a national leg
islature split up among a dozen shades of
political beliefs, and torn by factional
troubles, should suflice to make the spec
tacle of threo parties In tho United Slutes
senate striving for dominance an unpleas
ant one."
'
Honesty Pays.
Carbondale Anthracite: "Corrupt pol
itics, like other kinds of villainy, may
thrive for a season, but the end Is disas
trous, and In tho majority of Instances
precludes tho possibility of resurrection.
Tammuny Is dead and the horde of venal
politicians who have been Its parasites,
tools and promoters, will go to the polit
ical grave along with it."

Whether Mr. Sehadt or Mr. Davies
shall prove to have been the victor last
Tuesday, The Tribune will bo heartily
glad of one thing. It will be glad that
no word uttered by It during the recent
spirited campaign either reflected upon
Mr. Schadt's character or sought to
fasten upon him the stigma of an unde
served accusation. It therefore has
nothing to apologize for nnd nothing to
regret.
Despite all false reports, the Demo
crats have held their own In Tennessee
and Texas.
A word of commendation has been
fully deserved by the United Press for
the superior manner in whlch.it sup
plied Its subscribers with election news.
Because it was one of these, The Tri
bune was enabled to present In Its early
mall edition, last Wednesday morning,
so thorough a summary of the result in
every state that nothing since received
has materially modified that report.
Headers of this paper, however, scarce
ly need to be assured that Its news
getting facilities are the very best.
Fast City Solons.
As long ago as last spring the prop
erty owners along West Lackawanna
.avenue, between the tracks of the Dela
ware, Lackawanna and Western rail
road and Ninth street, petitioned coun
cils for permission to pave that almost
Impassable stretch of muddy road; and

The Evolution of a City.
One of the forward movements of the
times that, during the stir Incident to
a close local campaign, received less at
tention from The Tribune than It de
served was that which by an indorse
ment at the polls last Tuesday made It
possible for Plttston borough to trans
form itself Into a progressive third
class city. The success of this proposi
tion In the preliminary election,
achieved against great opposition and
heavy odds, is a splendid token that
the civic activities which one year ago
achieved a step toward municipal re
form In Plttston will not cease, not
withstanding the apostacy of bogus
councllmanic "friends" of reform, un
til there shall be a general cleaning out
or the corrupt element which has so
long pulled Plttston backward.
To the majority of our readers this
subject may lack local interest; but It
Is nevertheless Invested with very con
siderable Interest as a typical Instance
of the general progress which Is every
where overtaking our town and city
governments. " Tho conditions In Pltts
ton are precisely1 those which, upon a
larger scale, have made the good citi
zens of Gotham, Irrespective of party,
revolt against official debauchery and
organized venality in the. conduct of
municipal affairs. The Plttston Tam
many was a very small fac simile of
the New York Tammany, but in Its
total percentage of rottenness, ignor
ance and egotistic pretension it gave
even its Manhattan model a close shave
for supremacy. The formation of
Pittston's-down-at-the-heel borough In
to a third-class city will afford the
reputable elements of that community
a new chance to assert themselves, and
to Inaugurate the needed era of local
reform by means of officials who can
not be bought, bluffed nor cajoled.
If a suggestion will be entertained
from an outside source, we venture to
propose that as an act of common grati
tude, the first mayoralty of Plttston
city should be accorded, If he will ac
cept, to honest Benjamin Harding. As
the originator and chairman of the
citizens' committee which has done
It will be now in order for William
Ilines to seek pecuniary consolation by
pushing that libel cult.
VIEWS OF THE RESULT.
Is a IHspassionutc Judgment.
Philadelphia Hullctln: "The condemna
tion of the Democratic party is no BUddun
art or caprice; It is the deliberate and dis
passionate Judgment of the American peo
ple, and its effect will be moro decisive
and far-reaching than any of the great re
actions since tho downfall of the Demo
cratic party with its untu-bellum Hour
bonlsm In VsTi. In many respects the
most significant feature of the returns is
the defeat of Professor Wilson, the head
and front of the free trade movement.
The moral prestige of his retirement to
private life cannot be easily measured.
Next to the ascendancy of the Republi
cans In tho house, it will do more than
any other event of tho day to break up
and demoralize tho modern free trade
movement In the irnited Stales. The most I
gratifying effect of the whole victory Is
that it makes tariff agitation absolutely
powerless for mischief In the next two
years. A Republican house at Washing
ton will Btand as an effectual barrier
against any moro Wilson bills. That was
the uppermost purpose in the minds of the
voters this year.-They have secured for
the country a relief from tho vexations
and follies of tho most harmful strife that
can atlllct an Industrial nation la a time
of peace. So far as the tariff is concerned,
the country may now look forward to a
period of tranquility which no design or
threat of free trade will disturb. Nor Is it
unlikely that we shall henceforth wit
ness the gradual extinction of "tariff re
form" as a Democratic issue. The reac
tion In favor of protection is not a spasm.
Tho country has learned a lesson in the
dangers of a tariff disturbance which It
will not soon forget. The experience of
this year's elections will convince tho
Democratic leaders that no party can
even hope for success in the noxt decade
If it shall go before the people with free
trade or its virtual synonym, 'tariff re
form," Inscribed upon Its banners. The
politicians will not follow Sir. Cleveland
In a losing cause. The one deduction
which those of them who study tho popu
lar drift will draw from the returns is
that the Democratic party must find a
new issue if It shall not enter the presi
dential election of'lSPO hopelessly beaten
In advance. To deny that there will be a
counter reaction In favor of tho Demo
cratic party In the next two years would
bo to discard all the lessons of political
experience. Hut the sober conviction of
the American people that the Democratic
party, after being put to tho test, is unlit
for the administration of government Is
today so far-reaching that only Republi
can blunders can. prevent the party from
reaping the full fruits of thlB victory in
the next presidential election."

Washington Post: "The Democracy
went Into the campaign fatally handi
capped. They undertook a contest dis
credited and repudiated by their own
chieftain. Mr. Cleveland's letter to Hon.
William L. Wilson Btlnmatlzed ns per
fidious and dishonorable the tariff bill
a purely party meusure subsequently en
acted Into law by both houses of a Demo
cratic congress, and sent them before the
country branded as traitors and delin
quents by their own leader. They were
stripped of their armor and robbed of
their defense not by the enemy, but by
tholr commander and sent Into the thlok
of the fray naked andlielpless. Not only
that, but they were divided umonsr them
selves, lnllrm of purpose and Incoherent
us to their organization. Abused by the
Mugwumps, taunted by the Cuckoos, rent
asunder by dissension, and destitute of
chart and compass, they were like pome
abandoned derelict, the prey of every cur
rent, the Bport of every vagrant breeze.
It Is no wonder that the Democrats have
been overwhelmed In every part of the
country where there was a possibility of
their defeat. Without a leader, without
the hope and courage that come of harmo
ny, discredited in the house of their
friends, and disarmed before tho opening
of the battle, they would have been super
human had they triumphed. They have
fought gallantly, wondorfully; but theirs
was a forlorn hope from the beginning,
and only a mlraclo could have saved them.
