. Why Not Play Fair.
A disposition is ul.'eady manifested
In certain quarters to decry the open
ing of a discusssion In Pennsylvania
touching the merits and demerits of the
death penalty as a. punishment for
crime. With surprising suddenness,
many newspapers have excitedly uiffed
Senator Vaughan to desist from Ids
effort to bring about a general inter
change of intelligent opinion with
reference to this phase of our penal
nystem. Some have oven intimated that
if he did not stop, his constituents
would arise in wrath and defeat him for
re-eletion. All this, mark you, because
he has simply called this subject to the
legislature's attention, for such action
as it might deem wise.
If this kind of treatment were to pre
vail In matters of religion, most people
would call It bigotry or Intolerance.
Js .it less bigoted or less Intolerant be
cause th question at Issue is one of
statute law?
In an adjoining column we present
'the opinion of an eminent American
statesman and future president upon
.this subject the opinion of lion.
Ttoomas B. Reed. Is there a single
newspaper In Pennsylvania, of Repub
lican bollef. which would have Mr.
Reed defeated for the speakership of
the next national house, of representa
tives because he is opposed to legal
ized murder In retaliation for crime?
"Why not be fair, at least; why not hear
what Senator Vaughan, and those who
Relieve with hrtn that capital punish
ment should be abolished, have to pay?
An open discussion may do good; it
cannot do harm.
Councllmen an? needed who will not
Hun their official positions as oppor
tunities for personal profit or as clubs
In the beating of personal enemies.
Suprems Court Relief.
The method of relief for our over
crowded supreme court, embodied in a
measure to be presented at the State
Rar association at Harrlshurg tomor
row, and, if Indorsed by that body, to
be urged upon the legislature, appears
from a lay viewpoint, to be well
planned. It Is proposed to establish six
circuit courts of appeal, without origi
nal jurisdiction and compromising
present common pleas Judges; but af
fording in 'Its concentrated wisdom a
considerable barrier against ultimate
appeal. PiiouUI this measure become a
law, Lackawanna county would form
pant of the Fourth district, together
with Lycoming, Union, Snyder, Millliu,
Montour, Columbia, Luzerne, Wyom
ing, Wayne, Pike, Bradford, Susque
hanna and Northumberland. This dis
trict would comprise thirteen judges, of
Whom owe would by gubernatorial op
.polntment become presiding judge at
an Increased salary; but the measure
provides that not 'more than seven
nor less tha.n five Judges shall sit as a
court of appeal; and no judge can sit in
the itrlal of a case which came before
Mm on Its original trial.
Once each year the full bench shall
meet, to choose the seven judges who
shall constitute the appellate court In
each county and to designate when
such court shall sit, the selection of
these) matters to be left to the presid
ing Judge of the circuit, and the two
president Judges of the common pleas
courts who may be oldest In continuous
service, or by a majority of these three.
The seven Judges thus designated shall
Jiold two sessions each year In each
county In the circuit, provided there is
business for two sessions; each county
to furnish accommodations and facili
ties. In cases affecting the county in
m'hlc'h tthe. court meets, the officials
of the county court shall be likewise the
officials of the circuit court, which is
clothed with adequate powers to com
pel the'attendance of witnesses and the
like. This appellate court's decision
shall be final In all exnept seven classes
of cases, as follows:
(a) All civil proceedings of any kind or
suits for penalties begun before a Justice
of the peace or magistrate or alderman,
unless the attorney general appears there
in in his ofllulul capacity.
(b) All proceedings of any kind In the
court of quarter sessions, but na appeal
from a sentonce upon an Indictment in
suld court may be taken unless It has been
specially allowed by( a judge of the proper
circuit court.
(c) All proceedings of any kind in the
court of oyer and terminer and general
jail dolivery, except cases of felonious
homicide, which shall be appealed til
rei tly to tho supreme court.
(d) All actions la the common picas to
recover damages for injury to the person
ulleged to be the result of the negligent
or other wrongful act or omission of the
defendant, whether or not the injury re
sults in death.
(e) All actions of every kind at law or
in equity in which the only question In
dispute is a question of pleading or of
practice.
(f) All other action or every Kino, at
law or in equity, if the amount in contro
versy is less than $500, exclusive of costs,
except actions and proceedings which are
brought or defended by the attorney gen
eral in his ollicial capacity, and except
also actlpns of legal or equitable eject
ment. (g) Any case whatever, civil or crim
inal at law or In equity, except felonious
homicide, in which the parties or their at
torneys lllo a stipulation In the proper
court below, ugrcclng that the case may
bo heard and decided by the circuit court.
As an additional safeguard to tho rights
of litigants, cases within the foregoing
category may be appealed to the statei su
preme court: First, if the Jurisdiction of
the circuit court Is in issue; secondly, u
the case involves federal law, and thirdly,
if the case involves the construction or
application of the constitution of Penn
sylvania. An appeal to stale supreme
court must in all cases be allowed by
either the circuit court or one of tho Jus
tices of tho supremo court.
These various provisions appear to be
carefully and prudently drawn. There
is Mo question of the need of relief for
the higher court, 'the dockets of which
lure 'literally running over with trivial
cases taken tip from the lower courts
maliniy in order to swell ithe attorneys'
feea. The present measure provides
that ivlief and seems to le well worthy
of experimental enactment.

publican, Mhould be sent, next month,
to either branch of councils. Public
Improvement must begin at the foun
tain head.
. Martin Must Answer. 1
All talk about the advisability of a
reconciliation between Senator Quay
and David Martin has thus far over
looked one essential detail. It has
neglected to make allowance for public
opinion in this mutter, and public opin
ion, for once, Is very much awake. The
charge has been specifically made In
print, and repeated upon the Moor of the
United States senate, that David
Martin, during the past four years, or
in other words during the heydcy pe
riod of his prominence as a director of
Republican affairs at Harrisburg, has
been secretly In the pay of the Pennsyl
vania Railroad company. It is charged,
lu the public prints, and reiterated in
the United States senate, that Mr.
Martin, during these years and until
recently without the knowledge of those
who have trusted him in matters polit
ical, has been receiving an annual sum
In excess of JIL'.OOO from that company
lu payment for services rendered it in
the capacity of "confidential political
agent," or, in plainer words, lobbyist.
This may not be an unusual thing In
the inner circles of practical politics,
but it Is a thing which. If true with
reference to David Martin, must, as we
view it, seriously Impair his future
usefulness to the Republican party. We
do not believe that the mass of Repub
licans In this state will henceforth care
to "take orders" at Harrisburg from a
salaried employe of the Pennsylvania
Railroad company. They may have
nothing personal against either the
agent or the company, both of whom.
in their proper places, are of benefit to
the community. The element of preju
dice may not influence thtn: but it is
nevertheless a fact calling for reitera
tion that the Republican party in the
second largest commonwealth In tho
Union, casting as it does nearly three-
quarters of the votes cast in that com
monwealth, will henceforth, if we mis
take not its temper, decline to divide
the allegiance of its leadership with the
Pennsylvania Railroad company or any
other corporation having legislative in
terests to further which are just pos
sibly not always identical with the In
terests of the people.
A reconciliation between Mr. Martin
nnl Senator Quay will not mend mat
ters unless R shall carry with It a dis
tinct vindication of the former from
the charge which the latter has delib
erately preferred against him. The one
condition upon which Mr. Martin can
resume his usefulness to the party at
Harrisburg is based upon his thorough
acquittal from the .Indictment now
pending against him In the tribunal of
public opinion.. He Is. a man of many
resources and gifts, which If devoted
singly to the necessary duties of party
organization would be wisely, prudent
ly and we doubt not beneficially em
ployed. The point we wish to empha
size, wholly apart from any wish to be
little Mr. Martin or discredit him be
fore the people. Is that the temper of
the masses, at this time, will permit no
Jugglery on the part of those Intrusted
with party responsibility and will
speedily revolt from any leadership
which carries with It, In the expressive
words of our Junior senator, "the dollar
mark of corporation subsidy branded
on Its forehead."
The voters of the Thirteenth ward
will make no mistake and run no risk
If they should send Charles 8. Seamans
t.-, nmnmrin rotinnll. He is u clean man.
a capable man and a man whom the
people can trust.
It Is proper, of course, for charity to
begin at home, but It should not al
ways stay there.
Taking A Few Exceptions.
One of Bhe cardinal 'Injunctions of
Charles A. Dana lo those who ask lilm
how to succeed in journalism a point,
by the way, which ho heavily empha
sized In his flnstriK'Mve lecture at Cor
rwll ubJlwrwrty last Friday night is
embodied In itlhe wise wdvlce: "Don't
write about that of wti'loh you know
nothing." No Journalist Is above re
proach In ilh'ls detail; but it has been
irosorved for a writer of editorials for
tttie Chicago Herald to supply the most
amusing reconit example of disobedi
ence of the Duma rule. We quote from
the Herald of Jan. 11 : '
The penally which tho people of Penn
sylvania lire piiylug for the Republican
majority of 175,000 Is that Senator Matt
S. Quay Is exercising all the functions of
corrupt boss-ship in every Important de
partment of politics In the state. Though
residing in ono of the western counties,
ha Is dictating the Republican nomina
tion for mayor of Philadelphia. Ho has
rlected for the candidate a man named
boles Penrose, with a shudy legislative
record, and resembling Quay himself in
other respects, A large committee of
leading Republicans in Philadelphia got
down on their knee and waltod on a ills
reputable local agent of the Quay ma
china and begged that Penrose should be
withdrawn. Tho Quay agent, a deputy
"boss" named "Dave" Martin, declined
to take action In any way and the com
mittee retired. . If the people of Philadel
phia and Pennsylvania like it they will
continue to give 175,000 Republican major
ity, or as much as they can give. If not,
they know how to end it.
The fault iw.hldh we find with the
Herald man's panagnaplh Is that In
every essential detail l't is unitirue. The
Republican "miajoi'lty" In Pennsyilvta
v&x Us not 175,000 and never has been.
We are happy to say, however, that
Pennsylvania, last fall oast a Republi
can plurality of 240,645. The other es
sential pajrtloulairs In which the Herald
Is in error are as follows: PI nit, Sena
tor Quay did not dlata'ce the nomina
tion of Doles Penrose, for Penrose was
not nominated. Second, Penrose's legis
lative record Is mot flbady. Third, a
large committee of leading Republicans
did not wait on a disreputable local
agent of t)he Quay ma'Chlne; nor bend
tllio knee to him. Fourth, the "Quay
ugent," "Dave" Martin, lis not a Quay
agent, but an agent of the Pennsylvania
Rallroaid company. FUtth, Martin so
Railroad company. Fifth, Martin, so
tuny way," is known to 'have caused
Penrose's defeat; and is specifically
charged with having done this by
means of tho basest treachery. With
these few exceptions, the Herald para
graph Is passably correct.
Governor I'attlson will retire from
oillce today carrying with him the ier
sonal respect of every citizen of Penn
sylvania. As governor lie 'has made
mistakes, but they have been honert
ones. No breath of scandal has tainted
his administration; his influence dias
seldom been withheld from enterprises
designed to better society and morals
and there has hmn. In his treatment
of subordinates, marked dignity and
true gentility. Ills gravest fault has
been the tolerance of William F. Har
rity; In other details, his record Is good
enough to serve as a guide to his Re
publican successor.
The "first People's party government
on earth" loosened its grip on the
Kansas state house yesterday and th?
Republicans Again assumed control of
the affairs of that unhappy common
wealth. The example supplied by tho
turbulent Populists of Kansas ha3
aroused a sentiment toward the or
ganization that would enable the coun
try to bear up under the loss In case the
"first People's party on earth" should
got off the eai'th entirely.
LMilSLATIYK TOPICS.
KccJ on Capital Punishment.
Apropos of tho dlscusslnn, Just begun,
over Senator Vnughan's 1)111 to abolish the
deathi penalty In Pennsylvania, the follow
ing remarks made by Thomas 15. Reed be
fore tho Maine legislature us early as
Feb. 11', 1SU9, will be read with interest: "I
object to capital punishment because 1
do not think Its character satisfactory or
Us results encouraging. I regard It in
tho Hist place as an inefilclent punish
ment. J mean by this that it is a pen
alty uncertain of Infliction, mid yet cer
tainty of punishment Is a greater pre
ventive of evil than severity of punish
ment. This Is so universally acknowl
edged that it needs no discussion. Why Is
the penalty uncerlnin of Infliction?
Simply because the tribunal thut tries all
these) crimes Is a human arlbunal; and the
laws of the old Testament may be as se
vere and Imperative as possible, but the
human heart Is kinder than all such en
actments and will be pitiful in all capital
cases In nil trials where a man's life is
In peril. The history of the world shows
that Judges, Juries, and witnesses have
shrunk from being participants In ver
dicts of guilty where death may result:
and we know In the history of our own
state of one conviction at least, which was
the result of assurances that the death
penalty had been abolished. It will affect
judges, Juries, witnesses and Informers.
No witness will testily with that poslilve
ness of statement or that clearness of
conviction which he really has In his own
mind when a mHii's life is hanging on his
word. Judges will not charge as they
would if they knew that the man was to
receive a punishment which could be re
mitted if lie was afterwards proved Inno
cent. Capital punishment is injurious to
society because the example is bail. You
propose by your laws to teach the sanc
tity of human life and yet you say to tho
people of this state that under certain cir
cumstances their lives are not sacred.
In other words, you propose to educate
tho public mind so that men will not kill
by declaring that you will kill. In ono
sentence) of your statute you demand thnt
the criminal shall reverence the sanctity
of human life and In the next you show
your contempt for it. You demand of him
in the hot blood of hate n forbearance
which in the cold Idood of deliberation
you declare you will not grant; and so
the awful lesson of killing Is read from
your own statute book and you give It its
utmost sanction. I feel that I mny bo
pleading for the life of some Innocent man
In whose destruction the defeat of the
amendment mnkes us participate. 1 pray
you, gentlemen. If you have any doubts
about tho matter allow those -doubts to
enlist you on the side, of mercy."
To Protect Plicnsnnts.
Wilkes-Uarre Times: "A meeting of the
l.ii.i-rno County Sportsmen's club will be
held on Tuesday evening next to revise
tho game laws for thu better protection of
pheasants, Kvcry man who has gunned
(luring the past live years knows how
necessary It is to protect these birds If he
hopes to keep them from total extermina
liin. He knows from experience that they
are growing scarcer every year, and that
tho lime has arrived when some vigor
ous step should be taken on behalf of tho
favorite of all wild game. The principal
reason why the local forests uro rapidly
being depleted Is that In the mountains
between this city and Wyaluslng there
aid no less than fifteen 'market gunners,'
each of whom kill on un average about 000
birds, or In all about 7,500 during the sea
son. The number does not Include numer
ous other hunters of whom no record is
kept. Tho Sportsmen's club propose com
bining their efforts In securing the pass
age of a law prohibiting the shipping of
milled grouse out of the state of Penn
sylvania and also prohibiting their sale In
market for a period of five years."
How to llnvo a Short Session.
Philadelphia Press: "If Instead of tak
ing a prompt and business-like course, the
house committee on appropriations Is to
be divided up Into junketing parties snd
go over tho state visiting all sorts
of Institutions, eating nil sorts of
free lunches and drinking all sorts of free
liquors, the work Is going to bo delayed,
and any attempt to shorten tho session
will be frustrated. Such has been the
practice of the committee in recent years.
At a time when the members ought to
have been nt tho rapltol they were scat
tered over the slate in assorted parties
ostensibly Inquiring Into the merits of
certain Institutions asking for appropria
tions. Their absence not only prevents
progress with thn work of their particu
lar committee, but It often Interferes with
the disposition of other legislation In
which these members may be Interested,
and which Is held back out of courtesy to
them when they are away. This is a good
time to end these junketB."
-,
A Philadelphia Solution.
Colonel McClnre'B Times; "Tho better
plan to follow on this new county ques
tion, which has in view the creation of
Hasloton into a county seat town, ap
pears to lie to take the lower, or fourth
district, of I.uitorno county and attach It
to Carbon county. Carbon county has a
population of 38,024, with but K square
miles area, whle Luserne has a popula
tion of 201,20,1, with 920 square miles. The
portion affected would add to Carbon
county about 100 square miles and about
75,000 population. If Senator Kline la im
posed to amend tils bill and accept a meas
ure which will add Carbon county the
territory involved, he may probably se
cure legislation at this session."
Accepts I.yttlc's Charges as True.
Erie Dispatch: "The free Bchool book
law is a wise and beneficent one; it gives
the children of the poor, equal advantages
with those of the rich, In the matter of
text books for use in the public schools.
So far as the school children are con
cerned, the lawt is all right. 8o far as the
taxpayers are concerned it is largely
wrong. It Is a bloodsucker of a law. It
has apparently fallen Into the hands of
the book trust, which word is beginning
to be synonymous with extortion."
News Via Milwaukee.
Milwaukee Wisconsin: "This local rev
olution in Philadelphia and Pennsylvania
Is of considerably more than local Im
portance, because It will probably Involve
the downfall of two United States sena
tors, one of whom has had his eye upon
tho presidency. Not only the political ca
reer of Quay, but also that of Don Cam
eron, Is declared to have been absolutely
terminated by the Porter-Martin revolt."
Cleveland and Jackson.
Compared by Henry Watterson.
General Jackson may not have been a
good man, or a great man. But he was an
eminently successful man. Mr. Cleveland
may not be a small man, or a bad man;
but he is an eminently unsuccessful man,
Tho ono was leader. The other is an ex
perimentalist. In peace or war sucseas is
ever the standard, nnd no mntter how lit
tle moral vulue we may attach to It we
can not dispute its verdicts. Jackson was
quick and clear In his representations,
prompt in his movements, resolute In his
purposes, faithful alike to his friends nnd
his enemies. Nobody was ever In doubt
where to find him. As a consequence, not
merely the people rallied to lilm as, In
deed, they have rallied to Cleveland but
the public men of his time saw lu him a
leader whom they could tio to, and who,
In turn, would tio to them. In this latter
respect the conditions ure exactly re
versed In Mr. Cleveland. Ho trusts no
body, anil, as a consequence, Is trusted
only by those who have some axe to grind.
No public man of consequence, and with
out Hellish motive, would venture to risk
his character and Influence upon any Joint
enterprise with Mr. Cleveland, because
Mr. Cleveland mnkes common cause with
nobody, nnd may at any moment bo ex
pected to disappear from the scene, leav
ing his Inconsiderate yokemate to carry
the burden unaided and alone. To make
an Issue,, and not to tight it out; to arouse
a purty following and to disappoint H;
to come to tho scratch when It Is" too late;
in short, ever to seek both horns of the di
lemma, to wish to eat his cake and have
It, these are the features which distin
guish Urover Cleveland from Andrew
Jackson, who never feared to burn his
bridges behind him, and was always
found at the head of the columns, his
sword flashing, Its scabbard thrown away.
