price of admission?
Harrity Hits Back.
Smarting under constant attack from
enemies grown brave in the gloom of
defeat, National Chairman Harrity
grudgingly consents to a new deal in
the Democratic organization of Phila
delphia. "I am not one of those," says
he, "who believe that overwhelming
defeats of the Democratic party in the
recent past were In any measure what
ever due to the party rules. The very
decisive victories that have been won
by the Republican party have been too
widespread to permit such a suggestion
to be thoughtfully entertained for a
single moment. We have but to call the
roll of slates, North, South, East and
West, (Including such Democratic
states as New York, New Jersey, Con
necticut, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin,
Delaware, West Virginia and Missouri,
which gave their electoral votes to Mr.
Cleveland in 1892), to satisfy ourselves
that the causes for our defeats were
much wider and deeper than the mere
question of party rules and political
lenders. I dare say that the Demo
cratic defeats of 1894 were met under
the same Democratic leaders and under
the same rules as prevailed when the
Democrats won their decisive victories
in 1890 and 1892."
"Nevertheless," the restless Moses
Bays in effect, "since so many Demo
crats, good, bad and indifferent, want a
chance to clean house. I am broad
minded enough to consent," This is,
Indeed magnanimous. Having iveVy
materially helped to drive his party
Into the worst hole It ever got Into, the
generosity of this man In offering it his
free consent to scramble out as best It
may, constitutes one of the truly affect
ing Incidents of the year. Unaccustom
ed as we are to such magnanimity in
the Inner circles of the great unwashed,
we were at first disposed to question its
genuineness. But when, further on,
Mr. Harrity lets fly his goshawk at the
Philadelphia Democracy's "noisy blath
erskites," who dress parade in the In
terests of political "tricksters, traders
and traitors," we become at once con
vinced. This reveals to us, without
further ado, the hall-mark of the boss-that-ls.
Not even erratic Brother Slng
erly's "rlngsters, roosters and ruffians"
hold a candle to irascible William F.
Harrity's combination of alliterative
"ts."
We shall watch the process of Demo
cratic regeneration In Philadelphia
with a great deal of Interest. Perhaps,
before they get through, they will
afford a clew to the now commanding
mystery of the future of the Demo
cratic party In the state at large.
Tariff -tinkering was vetoed two
weeks ago by over 2,000,000 majority.
Is It necessary, then, to argue that It
must cease?
A happy omen In municipal affairs Is
the growing Interest of the best citizens
In local government. In the neighbor
ing city of Wllkes-Barre, for Instance,
two names of distinction and promin
ence are mentioned In connection with
councilmantc honors Editor 15. F.
Bogert, of the Leader, and Superin
tendent J. C. Atkln, of the Wyoming
.Valley Lace mills. There Is no reason
why counctlmen should not be as big,
broad and brainy men as congressmen
or presidents. Their duties are of
greater Importance within the area of
their Jurisdiction."
And now, Governor Peck, of Bad Boy
fame, threatens to take to the stage.
In Momus' name, what next.
The Railroad Problem.
Without more definite comparisons
than any now at hand it Is of little
avail for opponents of the govern
mental ownership of railroads to claim
that freight rates are cheaper in thif
United .States than in Australia, where
the government owns and operates the
railroads. Nevertheless, the very large
disparity between the two countries In
this particular item of comparison Is
strikingly suggestive. . ..
The average charge In the , United
States in 1893 for carrying une ton of
merchandise by rail 100 miles was only
8 cents, according to statistics com'
piled by the Interstate Commerce com
mission. In the same year the Aus
tralian railroads charged $10 per ton
for a similar haul, an advantage In our
favor of mora than 1,000 per cent.
Fruit Is hauled from California to New
York, 3,500 miles, for 1 cents a pound.
or only 87 cents per ton per 100 miles, as
against a $10 charge at the antipodes ,
To be sure, the railways of Australia
are only in their infancy;, and as the
country develops and short-haul traf
fic Increases, these charges will dimin
ish. But wholly independent of this,
government purchase and control is not
the solution of the railway problem In
this country. Three times the national
debt at its greatest would not pay for
the railroads now owned by individ
uals; nor would the massing of such
an enormous power -Into the adminis
tration of one party ever receive the
consent of a majority of thinking peo
ple. There Is no apparent reason why the
call for a meeting of representative
lawyers to meet in Harrlsburg next
January for the purpose of organizing
a State Bar association should not be
successful. Organization is the life of
professional as well as industrial and
political progress. There cannot be too
much of It, so long as wise principles
govern.
By a queer colncIdenee.General Harri
son, Governor McKlnley, Ex-Governor
Foraker and Colonel Robert G. Inger
soll on Tuesduy all chanced to come to
gether In Cleveland, O., yet despite the
Democratic rumors of Jealousy and 111
will not a drop of blood was shed.
Room for Improvement.
The announcement In Luzerne county
of another verdict of mnrder In Hie
second degree when the circumstances
pointed strongly to the need of a stout
hempen rope renews ntentlon to the
striking tenderness of the coal fields
juror. If our memory serves us cor
rectly, Luzerne county, with an an
nual average of from ten to twenty
murders In cold blood, has In the past
ten years had only onu execution that
of Paymaster McClure's assassin, "Red
Nosed Mike."
But Lackawanna county dare not say
anything in way of criticism; for while
In the sixteen years of Its existence
as a separate county there have been
close to 100 homicides committed within
Its borders, several of an aggravated
type, we have yet to be treated to the
spectacle of a capital punishment. Nor
Is there at present such a tightening of
the lines of law enforcement among the
classes which supply the bulk of this
bloodshed as would justify a prediction
of speedy betterment In this county.
We are not familiar with the court
records of Schuylkill county in this di
rection; but without going into statis
tics it Is entirely safe to assert, from
current report, that less than ono-thlrd
of the homicides In that county are
brought to Justice and In the past few
years we do not recall a single execu
tion. In view of these circumstances,
which form but a tithe of the criminal
harvest in the three anthracite coun
ties, It i3 scarcely surprising that this
region's reputation abroad Is not the
best.
There Is room for vast improvement.
The man who blundered so thorough
ly In his treatment of the tariff that his
party, within two years, fell from a
high majority party to a party which
is in a minority In all but nine states,
Is a poor person to be entrusted with the
formulation of a new financial system.
If Grover Cleveland be wisp, he will
let experiments alone and look about
him for something to do, after 1S9G.
Senator hill's Chance.
If It be possible in any legal manner
to prevent the Income tax from becom
ing operative, the opportunity should
not pass unimproved. The country
does not favor this partial and squint
eyed method of raising revenue. It
said so when It returned only eleven
northern congressmen among all those
who had been instrumental In the In
come tax's adoption. The intelligence
of the nation recognizes that when a
man has succeeded In life, he deserves
not extortion but encouragement; that
the more successful men we have, the
more prosperous we shall be as a na
tion; and that while some rich men are
rascals who use their wealth to oppress
the poor, there Is no adequato remedy
for this natural depravity In a' special
class law which lays its hand most
heavily upon the Individual of wealth
who refuses to He about his financial
condition and Is an upright and a de
cent citizen.
It Is said that before the Income tax
can be collected, a special appropriation
of $500,000 will have to pass the ap
proaching short session of the Fifty
third congress. Here, then, Is a chance
to kill or greatly cripple this Iniquitous,
socialistic tax. If In the bitterness of
popular rebuke the Populistlc house
should refuse to block this special ap
proprlatlon, let the superior Intelligence
and character of the senate again as
sert .itself, to effectually bar further
progress of the lower branch's rap
scallion raid upon American progress
and American thrift. Here, too, is a
chance for David Bennett Hill. His
warfare upon the Income tax has al
ready won him numerous friends. Let
him augment this personal admiration
by again heading a revolt against the
socialistic tendencies of his discredited
party. A man of Hill's fighting powers,
reinforced by the recent and unmis
takable assertion of popular opinion,
could now rally In the senate such jn
opposition; to the Income tax as would
settle its fate for a whole generation to
come. ' - - "
It is the chance of a life time. Will
Senator Hill grasp It?
' Cardinal Gibbons predicts that "soon
a strong appeal will bo made in every
state by its people to bring anarchists
and socialists by special statute within
the law." The law of common sense
ought to be sufficient to cope with 'these
troublesome,, exponents of shallow
thinking; but If It be not sufllclont, then
of course stronger means must be used
Self defense is society's first and great
est law.
Geography and Politics.
.-It Is a point worth noticing that If
from the geographical center of the
United States, exclusive of 'Alaska, to
the center of population a line were
drawn and bisected, the point of bisec
tion would fall very near to St. Louis,
and on the western side of the Missis
sippi river. The center of population
Is located a few miles southeast of In
dianapolis and the geographical center
In the extreme northwestern part of
Kansas.
The center of population is steadily
progressing westward. In the year
1900 it is expected, by good authority to
be not far from the eastern Illinois line.
If Alaska were Included In the calcula
tions which determine the geographical
center, that center would be moved
westward to the vicinity of Denver.
The rapid growth In our population to
day Is occurlng not In New England,
not In the eastern nor middle Btates.but
in the vast family of almost virgin
states known by the expressive title of
the "Great Northwest."
The people of this western country
have never yet been honored with the
presidency. Lincoln, from Illinois, rep
resented the furthest westward trend
of the presidential lightning In these
times. The tendency of the Democrats
to select candidates from the Atlantic
seaboard' has not grown In favor since
the last election of Grover Cleveland.
If common report be true, Mr. Cleve
land could not tomorrow carry a single
western stute.
Geography and politics are not in
separable; nevertheless, Indications
point at this time to more geography
than hitherto In-the next presidential
nominating conventions.
CHATS BY TIIK WAY.
"An Incidental result," says the Phila
delphia Times, "of the inspection of tne
mountain and forest regions of Pennsyl
vania by Dr. Rothrock, of the state for
estry commission, is in bringing to the mo
tlce of the public the Important fact that
Pennsylvania posessses ono of the health
iest und most delightful mountain sen
tions to be found in any state eust of the
Hocky mountains. This section which ex
tends from the Delaware to the Alle
gheny lacks none of the various nttr-ie-tions
of mountain districts nnywheie.
Beautiful lakes, precipitous) mountain
sides, deep glens, sparkling waterfalls,
lovely valleys, springs of the purest water
compose only a purl of the attractions of
this section which render Its preserva
tion in something like its primitive con
dition a public necessity. A few people
visit the counties of Monroe, Pike and
Wayne of the upper Delaware watershed
every year, and a still smaller number
spend the summer In the forest-covered
mountain resorts west of the Susque
hanna. Hut the great muss of health seek
ers from our Pennsylvania cities throng
to mountain und seaside resorts of other
states In sublime Ifcnoiunee of the health
ful and attractive reuorls within their
own state und near home." Serantonlans
themselves are often guilty of tills appar
ent ignorance, particularly when they
prefer the insipid Jersey coast to the
restful and Invigorating lake resorts with
in a stone's throw, almost, of their own
homos. Hut, then, this Is human nature.
All men are fools, some of the time.
The Nantlcoke Dally News Is very
wroth over the fact that Professor Wes
ton, of the Scranton Young Men's Chris
tian association has arranged a Series ef
basket ball games for the Scranton,
vt iikes-Hurre and Kingston teams, leav
ing the Nantlcoke team In the cold. As
an explanation, which is u perfectly rea
sonable one, the professor points out that
It Is essential that the team should be
made up of Young Men's Christian asuo
ciatlon members, and as Nantlcoke Is in
the rear in this respect, It Is but proper
that the team should be excluded as a
penalty for the antiquity of that inter
esting little town In not having sullleieiit
energy to possess a team of Young Men's
Christian association young men. That's
all there Is to It.
Here Is a sentiment that I find credited
to Vunce Thompson, literary, art and dra
matic critic of the New York Commercial
Advertiser. It Is Interesting, and I feur
it Is also true: "It Is almost Impossible
to meusure the harm which Journalism
has done to the literature of the nine
teenth century. It certainly Is responsi
ble for the Insincerity and hypocrisy
which Is the hall-mark of the brilliant
writers of today of George Moore and
Anthony Hope and Frank Harris and Os
car Wilde. It has put an end to reflec
tion, without which thought can become
neither original nor strong. When one
gets Into the habit of looking upon ev
erything as material for an article whn
he turns his life and the lives of his wife
and children and friends Into copy he
loses all uppreciutlon of lire, all sense rf
Its meaning and proportion. He does not
live; he writes for the newspapers. Ills
mental processes are reduced to making
epigrams." Do you concur? I don't like
to, but am afraid I'll have to This ts the
golden age of literary vapidity, and the
newspapers, good as they are In many
ways, are In this instance undoubtedly re
sponsible. ...
The Carhondule Anthracite, which be
gnn life with the distinct purpose of mak
ing Carbojulale a county Seat, says: "The
situation in the Ilazleton section and that
In sections of Lackawanna, Susquehanna
und Wayne proposed to be Included in the
new Anthracite county project differ only
In degree, and there is not much doubt that
this difference Is aggravated in the latter
as compared with the Hazleton section.
A great percentage of the populations of
Susquehanna and Wayne Is obliged to
suffer a 'practical denial of Justice,' be
cause of the remoteness from the county
seuts, and the Inconveniences of trans
portation, und In Lackawanna county the
courts are so overtaxed with litigation
that the civil list Is at least two years be
hind at present." We had supposed that
communication between Carbundale and
Scranton was easy and convenient.
The efforts of the game protective asso
ciations of this vicinity to secure such
changes In the game laws ns will more
effectually check the frightful decima
tion of pheasants and quail by unscrupu
lous gunners deserve to succeed. There is
much to be said In favor of the proposi
tion that the killing of all game be pro
hibited for two years, thus giving the now
furtive feathered Inhabitants of our de
populated reserves a slight chance to re
multlply. Action must be radical and
prompt, or there will be no game to
cave.

The Philadelphia Record says the most
Influential men in the Philadelphia Re
publican organization assert most posi

oppose any effort to take the license
granting power from the Judges or
otherwise fundamentally alter the Brooks
act.
National Chairman Harrity has an
nounced his surrender to the people In the
Democratic party who have for the past
two or three years opposed his leader

said he never would concede, a revision
of the rules of tho party. He announces
that he Is "unqualifiedly In favor of call
ing a convention" for the revision of tho
rules.
The official returns lo the state depart
ment from all the legislative districts of
tho commonwealth Indicate, says tho Pa
triot, that the Democrats will have only
twenty-eight of tho 2o4 members of the

house and thirty-six In the senate, or 134
on Joint ballot. Of the tyenty-elght Dem
