Saturday Evening's Protest.
The sentiment of every well-informed
American citizen is aptly voiced tin the
second resolution unanimously adopted
by the mass meeting hold In the Elm
Park church Saturday evening, for the
purpose of prutosting against the Wan
ton massacre of defenceless Christians
in Armenia. That resolution reads as
follows:
Resolved, That the United Slates gov
ernment be urged to Insist upon the priv
ilege of making an independent, unham
pered Investigation of the alleged atroci
ties. When we regard this second resolu
tion as conveying the gist of awakened
American sentiment with reference to
this subject we do not overlook the
enormity of the massacres themselves,
nor condone the atltltude whiieh Turkey
has assumed regarding them. The
tragedy itself Is the paramount blot
upon the record of the nineteenth cen
tury; ami every atom of manhood In
the civilized world calls imperiously for
redress and far future prevention. But
the belief Is strong In us ithat the most
effective method of procedure for
Americans In this matter 4s in the dl
roctlon of stiffening the supine back
bone of their own home government.
The signa tory powers of Europe may bo
thoroughly competent to deal with Tur
key effectually, but we do not have
muoh confidence In 'their willingness to
lo this. European politics, it seems to
us, is too intricate and too full of cross
purposes to convey an advance guaran
tee that absolute Jusltice shall be meted
out as 'the result of the labors of the
Armenian commission of Inquiry.
We prefer. If Jt can be brought aibout,
to trust to,an American inquiry. We
have faith, If it can be enlisted, in
Yankee shrewdness, grit and singleness
tit purpose. An American inquiry
would bring to its 'task free hands and
n unclouded conscience. It would go
Into the region of 'the massacres with
out advance complications, and when
It 'had emerged, if current reports should
be verified, the world would got the
truth, the whole 'truth and nothing but
'the truth. Jtost Important of all, the
sending to Armenia of an American
commissioner of the right kind would
be a notification to Turkey, for the first
Itlme, that the Christian republic of the
western 'hemisphere whose citizens Tur
key has long treated with unrebuked
contempt If not aggressive Indignity,
(had reached a, period of development
where cowardly patience had ceased to
be regarded a diplomatic vitltue and
where, if there should be any more non
sense, something In the vicinity of
Stambul would soon drop.
The announcement Is made In a Sun
tiny paper that ex-Alderman C. W,
Itoesler, of the Eighth ward, not satis
fied with the result of last Wednesday's
caucus, will oppose that caucus' popu
lar nominee, AV. S. Millar, by organiz
ing an independent candidacy. Of the
337 votes polled at' the caucus, Mr.
Itoesler had loss than 11 per cent., while
Mr. Millar's majority over all was 107
Votes, or nearly 33 1-3 per cent. Upon
what ground Mr. Itoesler could base an
Independent candidacy wo do not know,
unless upon the ground of rank Ingrati
tude for past favors enjoyed by him
almost continuously tor the past twen
ty years at the hands of the Republican
party.
Theosophy Up to Date.
Theosoplhlst Judge has advanced the
idea that the souls of 'the earth's in
habitants once resided on the moon,
Ho further tttaties that Mars Is at pres
ent uninhabited but thinks in a few
centuries hence .the planet will be ripe
enough to accommodate a colony of
earthly theosopihiflUi.
According to Mr. Judge's Ideas, given
at (length In the New York Herald, the
snoon was donstrly populated many cen
turies ago l)y the present Inhabitants
Df the earth. Under circumxtances
iw.h'kih uro left to the imagination the
moon went Into decline and lost Ha at-
trmciUuna as a dwelling place. The
tarth was opened up about this time
and fho eouls of the hthabltanbi of fair
luna drifted earthward and proceeded
to stake oui the ludid. The manner In
which real estate has "been cornered,
"by ithe way, can beat be judged by the
Impecunious who has endeavored to pur
chase a corner lot in the Electric City,
Tue planet Mars in the course- of a
hundred centuries or so wlVl offer the
name IroduoemejWs to theosophlcal eml
ITnunbs, and Mr. Judge is at present cn-
gaged In booming Martian real estate
in advance.
.Mr. Judge states 'that the moon has
not bean under a state of cultivation
for many years, and intimates that the
soil does not possess moisture enough
to furnish life to a Colorado sage bush.
He (neglects, however, -to locate numer
ous souls that jnust 'have been starved
off the moon ages ago and have only
recently arrived upon earth, and others
that may arrive between this and the
penlod necessary to get the so'f Mars
up to ajnythlng approaching the Dakota
standard for wheat raising.
In view of the remarkable progres-
siveness of Mr. Judge's theories It la
probaible that the public wl'H overlook
any little discrepancy of tlhat nature,
and as no one can positively say that
his statements are Incorrect It will no
doubt be Just as well ito allow the The-
osophist Moses to have his own way.
The city of Plttston, until such time
as It shall revel In the cleanliness of
asphalt streets, could do nothing more
opportune than to Insist upon the re
moval of the banks of snow and ice
which have accumulated at each side
of the street car line that traverses
Main street.
As to Capital Punishment.
There Is no mistaking the fact that
the sentiment which advocates the.
abolition of the death penalty as a
punishment fur crime Is a growing one
In this country; nor is It possible to
overlook the additional fact that Its
grow th Is chiefly among well-educated
and well-meaning' people. We recall
among the eminent advocates of such
abolition no name Btiggestive of other
than a genuine desire to promote the
public welfare and Improve upon a
condition of punishments In which the
spirit of en,;iance is quite as con
spicuous us is the spirit of correction.
The Introduction at Harrlsburg by Sen
ator Vaugtum of a bill proposing this
abolition In Pennsylvania will, what
ever the measure's immediate fate, per
form a useful service in stimulating
the discussion of and in educating the
masses with reference to this subject.
It Is not fair to Senator Vaughan to
hold over his head the club of a preju
dice which nlmostinvarfablydlsappenrs
when this question of punishment for
murder and other high crimes Is se
liously and thoroughly studied In nil
It bead! gs. There Is a world of dif
ference between the laxconditlonof law
enforcement which permits criminals
to go free of punishment and the condi
tion which is contemplated by those
who favor u reformation of our penal
code in accordance with the teachings
of modern science. In the one case
there is open and flagrant contempt
for all law; while in the other, there
Is such high respect for the law as
would strengthen It In its weak points.
It Is not open to dispute that the death
penalty, as commonly administered, Is
a gross and indexible form of punish
ment, provocative of new crime rather
than deterrent in Its Influences. We do
not see how any unprejudiced student
can scan the statistics of crime increase
in this country, ut the same time bear
ing in mind the constantly emphasizing
efforts of phllanthrophy to Improve ex
isting social and moral conditions, and
econclle the growth In crime with the
growth In antl-crlmlnnl agitation with
out concluding that there are grave
defects In our punitive system.
It has been the misfortune of the
movement against the death penalty to
attract to Its support, from time to
time, meti and 'wonutjn of excitable
temperaments persons who,. In. their
eagerness to remedy a defective system
are not infrequently betrayed Into an
undue sensitiveness toward convicted
criminals. The question- Is eminently
scientific. It Is one of mathematical
results "not crying out In tire behalf of
vicious human brutes, but dispassion
ately arguing the lnefllcacy of the penal
system under which such results arc
possible. When It Is once understood
that the movement of which Senator
Vaughan Is a local, advocate is not a
crusadis of oversensitive sentimental
ists liable to gush over blood-dripping
assassins, but Instead a cool, scientific
effort to apply to the problem' Of crime
some more promising solution than le
galized but undiscriminating venge
ance, there will be a greater popular
willingness to give these reformers a
fair hearing.
One of Hie pleasant features of the
Philadelphia mayoralty fight, at least,
is its revelation of Colonel McClure In
his great role as a temporary Republi
can. If Jingoism, We're Not Sorry.
An Incident recently came to our
knowledge that strikingly Illustrates
tho abject condition of things In
Turkey. Two American women, em
ployed as teachers In a Christian col
lege for missionaries In Constantinople,
recently undertook to convey by mnil
to friends In this country a description
of the despotic character of the Turkish
government. Their letters were opened
by the Turkish authorities, and those
teachers Instantly carted off to prison,
from which only tho earnest Interven
tion of tho American consul sultlced to
liberate them. In the chief cities of
Turkey, where we have legatlOnB.Amer
Ican citizenship Is sometimes partially
respected; but In the interior towns
and provinces It Is said by travelers to
be as much m one's life is worth to an
nounce that one is an American.
Tho government at Washington, ex
cept at rare intervals, has hitherto re
garded Its diplomatic service, particu
larly In the consular branch, mainly as
an asylum for importunate ward heelers
and clamorous party hacks. These
men, In turn, view their posts in the
foreign consulates principally us head
quarters for fee-grabbing and mlscel
laneous sky-larking. It Is not much to
be wondered at that foreign represen
tatives whom their own countrymen tie
splse, except at election time, should
full to Impress the communities to
which they are accredited with an ex
alted conception of the dignity and
grandeur of the great American re
public. In contrast with the trained
diplomats and elegant gentlemen who
constitute the rule In tho diplomatic
service Of most European nations, our
easy-going swashbucklers from the
slumB or the rural "deestrlots" of
America, we must confess, often cut
very sorry figures.
But while we are all of us partlceps
criinlnls In the abominable rating
which American diplomacy, for the most
part, enjoys in Europe It Is especially
disconcerting to see the American
badge of citizenship abused or sneered
at in a land of darkness such as
Turkey. Most of all, it is humiliating
to realize that practice has ordained,
and the present secretary of state lav
ishly realized, a pulley of exquisite In
difference to the opinion of foreign na
tions with reference to travelling Amer
icans. No Englishman Is twice abused
in the same place; for the first offence
on the part of a foreign power, if not
promptly righted, is answered by the
thunder of English cannon speaking Its
imperious message from the port holes
of English war ships. But America,
gentle America, wraps itself up in ward
politics and permits Its subjects In
other countries to shift for themselves.
Three good Yankee gunboats, an
chored in the Hosphorus, would ma
terially improve the quality of Turkish
opinion about Americans.
The Tribune regrets that a pressure
of previously promised contents pre
vented it on Saturday from publishing
the very Interesting annual report of
Mrs. AV. D. Kennedy, read at Friday's
meeting of the association for the
Home of the Friendless. The substance
of this report is, however, reproduced
this morning, and it is well worthy of
perusal by every Scrantonlan Interest
ed in this magnificent home charity.
The announcement of the abandon
ment of the system of house-to-house
solicitation should not be Interpreted
by friends of this institution as absolv
ing them from the pleasant duty of
contributing out of their abundance to
the support of the worthy Inmates of
the Home, The instinct which, during
this cold snap, causes well-to-do read
ers to appreciate the warmth and com
foi t of their own homes will also lead
it hem to Increase the mea sure of their
largesses in behalf of the homeless
poor.
If .the governor of Illinois Is irrecon
cilably dissatisfied with these United
States, tickets to Europe may be had
these days at exceptional rates.
There seems ample reason to Justify
the belief that Governor Alfgeld's liver
is out of order.

LEGISLATIVE TOPICS.
Wise Compulsory Education.
Seranton Record: "Compulsory educa
tion is an assured fact. Those having
charge of this bill, before it becomes a
law, should remember to provldo for deli
cate children and for those who have to
work to support widowed mothers or
parents In need of their earnings. There
should be exemptions or dispensations
granted to children for sufficient rea
sons. Proper consideration should be
given to home instruction. If parents pre
fer to instruct their children at home
they should be allowed to do so and all
that should be required from such chil
dren should be that they attend an exam
ination which would Bhow whether their
education was being attended to or not.
For children who are compelled to work
there should bo night schools established.
Compulsory education Is Intended to com
pel negligent parents to educate their
children. It Is not meant as a source of
annoyance, to parents who are endeavor
ing to properly train their children and
the advocates of the compulsory educa
tion law should protect such parents.
This can be clone by compelling those who
are selected to enforce the law to go to
tho homes of tho children who are not
attending school and ascertain the cause
of their absence and And out if the pa
rents know that their rhihlren are not
going to school. Sometimes children at
tend school and afterward begin to play
truant; their teachers should be compelled
to Immediately notify parents of their
children's absence. Everything like
pounding children, as we do stray cat
tle, should be guarded against. Until
they nr proved to be Incorrigible they
should he treated with consideration and
everything done to ascertain who is at
fault, the parents or the children,"
Ilallot Law Changes.
Letter by Major 'James Pott In the
Chumbersburg Public Opinion: "I read In
the Opinion the urticle copied from tho
Seranton Tribune, and your comments
thereon. The Tribune Is right in the de
fects It points out and the 'changes' It
suggests. The circle at tho head of each
ticket should be dispensed with, for the
reason given by The Tribune. The little
square opposite each name on the ticket
should bo more plainly defined Instead of
being almost Invisible as Is the ease now.
This Is Import" nt especially in view of
tho frequent dark booths. As to the
'helpers.' the law Is very lame, and In
this respect thu lowu law might properly
bu ndopted. There, no person except tho
person going to vote, is permitted to en
ter the enclosure or booths. If the voter
rertlfles that he Is incapable of properly
marking ticket, the law requires that two
of the election officers of opposite politics,
shall go Into the booth with him. They
are sworn to absolute secrecy under Se
vern penalties and are not permitted to
make any suggestion to the voter beyond
simply asking him how ho wants to vote
nnd then show him where to mark, In ac
cordance with his expressed wish. This
would render unnecessary the 'two sworn
helpers' added to each election board, as
suggested hy tho Seranton Tribune, und
save that much additional expense. It
may be suggested that this would Impose
too much work on the election otllcers und
Interfere with their other duties. Such Is
not the case when this prevails and would
noO be the rase In this statu, unless It be
assumed that GO per cent, or more of the
Pennsylvania voters needed 'help.' Tho
'Australian' system Is comparatively new
and In some respects complex, but voters
will soon lenrn to understand It, and but
little 'help' will be needed. If there bo not
too many and too radical 'changes,' but
the two changes suggested by The Trib
une, seem Imperative nnd would not only
create no confUBlon, but would greatly
simplify the new Bystem."
The l-urr Dill Defended.
Wllkos-Barre Record: "The opponents
of compulsory educntlon aro not always
fair In criticisms of tho Farr bill now bo
fore tho legislature. Their principal ob
jection Is that It will deprive nged or crip
pled fathers, poor widows and depend
ent children of tho wages of the boys who
will be compelled to leave the workshop or
thn mine, and attend school If the bill
should pass. This Is not true. The Farr
bill does not do anything of the kind. A
perusal of Its provisions will clearly
show that It will not In any way bear
heavily upon the class In question. As a
matter of fact it provides ample protec
tion for poor people who cannot afford to
dispense with tho wages earned by thoir
children. The parent who Is honestly do
slroiiB of sending his children to school
need have no fear of the Farr law. It, la
only the parent whose greed for gain, or
whose unnatural Indifference to the wel
fare of his children prompts him to send
them to work or allow them to roam the
streets who needs to fear the operation!
of a compulsory education act. Tho Rec
ord entirely agrees with the Seranton
Tribune on this subject when It says: 'it
Is tho right of all children to be well
equipped, by education, for the battlo of
life; the state, In recognition of that
right, compulsorlly taxes every adult
male citizen, whether a parent or nut, to
support public schools. Shall parental In
difference, masking behind a false cry of
' sacred parental privilege-,' be permitted
to throw out, upon the save of society,1 a
disturbing factor of Ignorant young men
and women, whose rlghtt to un equal
chance In life have been meanly and sel
fishly overlooked?"
Inconsistent Opposition.
From the Courier-Progress.
The Truth has had another paroxysm
of rago on account of the Introduction of
the compulsory education bill, and rel
ieves itself by emitting over a half column
of abusive epithets, but no sound argu
ments. Truth favored tho factory law
which prevents children under 13 years
from working in the breaker and factory
and those under 14 from working In the
mines. But It Is opposed to a law that
practically says If children under 12 can
not work, rather than have them run thu
streetH they must be sent to school.
Pray, Accept Our Apologies.
From the Courier-Progress.
When the Bcrnnlon Tribune congratu
lates the West Side board of trade on
adopting Its suggestion regarding the es
tablishment of a sub-postal Btution in
Hyde Park, it should remember that tho
suggestion was tlrst made by this paper.
Thu Courier-Progress called attention to
this need ibefore The Tribune was thought
of.
TRAGEDY IN REAL LIFE.
A venturesome scribe, one keen winter's
day,
Sought to moralize on a great fad
So ho wrote of poor horses with tails cut
uway,
And declared that such bobbing was
bad.
Hut this scribe had a boss, or, rather, an
nss,
Who docked his own equities, they say;
And when the poor scribe sought the
cashier, alas.
He found he was Bobbed of his pay.
MY REST GIRL.
Lots of maids are proud If wealthy may
be sickly, lean or stealthy. My sweet
girl Is plump and healthy quite su
perior to pelf.
Some are much attached to boating, flirt
ing, shooting even voting! Mine sin
cerely loves her doting sweetheart,
otherwise myself.
Clrls thero be who play the cymbal, races,
mandolin, or tymbal. My girl's nim
ble with the thimble, yet she's all the
world to me.
Thero are others highly mental and a
many transcendental mine Is loving,
kind, and gentle, as a vision fair to
see.
Not upon a Newport basis Is the faith
true love embraces. Mutual trust
our fondness graces lusting, grow
ing throughout life.
Years of effort (more than twenty) yield
us now a modest plenty ofttimes
dolce far nlente. All these years
she's been my wife.
