be as president. The- wish of General
Harrison to remain free from official

as one of the cleanest and most credit
able administrations we have ever had.
It Is our opinion that a "new man,"
as the phrase is understood in politics,
is quite as likely to be the next presi
dential nominee of the Republican
party as Is any of the three or four
familiar candidates who will enter the
next convention with something of the
odor of factionalism attaching to each
one. This new man may be n western
man Indeed, sometimes we think the
logic of the situation points that way,
to a man say like Cushman K. Davis,
of Minnesota or he may be one of the
two or three excellent Republicans who
conspicuously represent the Imperial
Republicanism of Industrial Pennsylva
nia. The candidacy of Mr. Grow, for
Instance; of Senator Quay, or perhaps
better than either, because peculiarly
representative of the sentiment which
lust month rolled up In his name? the
massive Indorsement of a quarter-of-

cause freer than either from past com
plications, the candidacy of General
Daniel H. Hastings would present a
happy basis of factional compromise

Says the Harrisburg Patriot: "The

Indeed for several years past, that no

A Friendly Hint.
At the hours of noon and nightfall,
say for an hour at each time, the street
car service in this city ought to be
doubled. If It were doubled, we be.
lleve that the patronage would Increase
at those times sufficient to cover the In
creased cost. Hundreds of men now
walk to and from their homes, ut the
dinner und supper hours, because they
do not care to take chances aboard the
densely-packed street cars. A habit
thus formed governs their travel at
other hours, also, and will, In time
communicate Itself to others, who yet
ride. Even If the Traction company
were under no obligations to the public,
It would promote Its own best interests
by improving Its service in these par
ticulars. The fact that It is, to a very
large extent, a creature of public favor
dds to the logic of our argument.
From what we know of General Man
ager Beetein we do not believe that If
his resources and authority were ample,
he would starve the car service In this
city or permit one unnecessary moment
to delay a radical Improvement of
"stock and fixtures." If, therefore, as
we partly suspect, he Is restrained from
needed expenditures by distant Influ.

their attention that trolley investments

The Republicans of Wayne county

superior knowledge of his brother's

Apropos of the suggestion thut the
Pennsylvania delegation to the next na
tional Republican convention might wish
to favor Senator uuay with a com
plimentary vote for the presidency, the
Philadelphia Inquirer says: "Quuy has
played a prominent part In Washington.
He elected Harrison president. That can
not be denied, even by his worst enemies.
He saved tho MeKlnley tariff bill when
only wise statesmanship could force a
vote. He remains the leader of the Penn
sylvania Republicans." And It might
have added that If by any ehanee he
should ever become president, the nation
would have on executive of shrewdness,

William U. Allison, of Iowa, Is more

The Question of Reapportionment.
Upon the basis of the census of 1S30.
the congressional ratio of representa
tion in this state is one member to
every 173,1)01 populutlon. J lie appor
tionment of the two congressmen now
elected at large to regular districts, as
well as the readjustment of the present
regulur districts so that they will more
nearly conform to the ratio, will be a
duty which will devolve up'on the next
legislature, and It will obviously be an
Important duty.
The Phlladlephia Press claims that
Philadelphia will get one of these con
gressmen and Allegheny the other,
since each county already has one more
ratio than it now has members of the
national house of representatives. The
problem left to the legislature will be to
equitably distribute the ratios among
the twenty-one remaining districts. Of
these districts eight fall 10,000 or more
below the ratio in populutlon; namely,
the Eighth, with a populutlon of 102,3ti";
the Tenth, with J.4lJ,05; the Eleventh,
with 142.0SS; the Thirteenth, with lr.-l,-
1G3; the Fifteenth, with 140,227; the
Seventeenth, with 1U8.795; the Twenty-
sixth, with 151,3118, and the Twenty
seventh, with 138,320. The Sixth, Sev
enth, Fourteenth, Sixteenth, Eigh
teenth, Nineteenth and Twenty-eighth
districts come so near the ratio that
little if any change will be necessary
while the Ninth, with 223,958; the
Twelfth, with 201,203; the Twentieth.
with 213,202; the Twenty-first, with 2-ir,-
7-10; the Twenty-fourth, alreudy having,
exclusive of Its Allegheny portion, 180,
09G, and the Twenty-fifth, with 198. 60S.
considerably exceed the ratio. If we
assume that the Twenty-fourth district,
with Allegheny excluded, could stand
without, further change, the problem
that presents itself is how to equalize
the facts that the 1,171,990 Inhabltantsof
the small districts have eight represen
tatives In congress while the 1,082,777 In
habitants of the lurge districts have
only five.
Coming down to the local significance
of thia question, we have presented the
fact that our own district is 31,81.3 under
size, while the Twelfth Is 27,302 too
large. If the political element were
eliminated, tfothlng would be easier
than to tuke from Luzerne approxi
mately 30,000 population, and attach It
to Lackawanna. Assuming that a
modification of the present district
boundaries Is necessary, this might be
accomplished, if from Luzerne there
were1 detached and annexed to the
Eleventh district the 33,113 persons In
habiting Avoca, Exeter borough, Ex
eter township, Hughestown borough,
Marcy township, PIttston borough,
Plttston township, Plains, West Pitts-
ton, Wyoming and Yatesville. The two
districts would then both be ds near
the requisite ratio as legislation could
well place them. The Eleventh district
would have 175,201 Inhabitants and the
Twelfth would have 168,090, upon the

CHATS BY THE WAY.

to Improve humanity unless he ulso pos
sesses a certain amount of tact. An anuis-

part of a well meaning clergyman of thin

the Scranton dailies, whose good nature
caused him to puss over lightly un nffront

the lie of the ordinary man. The re
porter had been seeking information of
the clergyman regarding church matters,
which hud been freely given. Throughout
the Interview the conduct of the scribe
had been gentlemanly. In fact the young
man referred to Is noted throughout the
local Journalistic circles for his uniform
politeness anil courteous manners. How
ever, as he thanked the minister for the
Information and was preparing to take
his departure, the clergyman suddenly
turned to him and with the air that one
would assume in addressing a criminal
who was undergoing a life sentence ns a
penalty for atrocious deeds, said: "Sir,
ure you a Christian? The reporter re
plied with the statement that he was a
church member and was endeavoring to
lead a Christian llle. The minister turned
to another clergyman present with an
expression of astonishment upon his
face und remarked: "Just think of It!
Here Is a reporter who says that he Is a
Chrlstlunl" There Is no question thut the
Intentions of the good man were light;

Any discussion of this question at this

proper to ask why there is any neces

leaders of the Republican party as Its
next presidential nominee. Senator Al
