And the end Is not yet.
There never was any doubt of the
success of the Klrmess. Scran ton has
happily not yet formed the hnblt of
slighting worthy enterprises. conducted
for the benefit of local charities. Never
theless, the generous response already
made to this call for aid for the Lacka
tvanna hospital is a fit subject for re
joicing and a pleasant forerunner of yet
more generous responses to come.
No Time for Cowardice.
There is ilittle doubt that eome tim
orous Republicans at Hai rlsburg would
like to avoid committing the majority
party In the legislature to the principle
of compulsory educaton, now thxt the
state 'has a Republican governor. They
have no objection to that principle as
a principle. Some of them, Indeed,
probably -do not know wiiat that prln
'iplj really Is, or what its practical
application would accomplish for tine
175,000 boys anid gtris In Pennsylvania
who, although of school age, are to
day growilns up to citizenship In ignor
ance of the fundamental elements of a
common school education. All that
.they know in the premised a.ni this
is not knowledge, but only surmise
Is that the enactment of the Farr bill
might, under demagogic conditions,
cost the party a. few votes. Hence
they are willing to shove the matter
aside, duty or no luty.
This fine kind of political general
ship, we, ana glad ,to say, is In no sense,
representative of Pennsylvania Re
publicanism. The party may occasion
ally have, deferred to such leadership
In the past, but we trust that it will
do so no more. The Republican party,
ns the casa now stands, haa twice
favored compulsory education. The
last time It supported that principle
overwlheamirfgly, and but for the inoon
Bisuant veto of a Democratla governor
tt would tottoy be the law of the eim
monweailtih. For the Republican party
In thepresentlegislature to suddenly re
verse Itself, for no other reason in the
world than he unjustifiable timidity
of a. few smaill-calibred leaders who
merely ima.g'linie they lead, would be a
display of cowardice we'll oalcula.ted to
make the legislature ridiculous in the
eyes of sensible people. Such a course
would be deplorable even were the fan
cied danger neal. It today Is simply
preposterous when we consider that the
danger Is altogether on the other side.
We may as wt'll be outspoken In this
matter. The principle of compulsory
f ducatton, as enunciated in the prudent
Mil of Representative Farr, has re
ceived the cordial indorsement of so
cieties and religious organizations rep
resenting nine-tenths of the state's
population. The opposition to it which
Is not purely rhetorical and In virtual
Ignorance of its real provisions comes
chiefly from those elements In the com
mortweiallth which would be Jeoparded
hy such a Jaw, because it would strike
a blow Bt their greed, ignorance and
Indefensible parental obstinacy. To
cater to this vicious vote at the expense
of the support of educated and pro
gressive citizens of all creeds and faiths
(would ibe not omly poor statesmanship
-which 1s perhaps Immaterial to the
(rooster politicians at Harrlsburg who
ere opposing this measure but Ht the
Bama 'time lextraordlarlly bad politics.
If there is any throttling along this
line, toe people will do It, and the
rooster politicians twill quite certainly
be the victims. It is worth while to
dearly understand that!
If ithe government of the United
Rates desires ito embark In the canal
business, it should do so Independently
end "on its own hook." It should not
lend Its credit to a bankrupt private
enterprise, for ith profit of Individual
speculators. The Morgan Nicaragua
canal bill now pending in the house Is
ft good bill to kill, unless, indeed, the
people wish to see ithls government sink
knee deep Into a colossal scandal.
Pensions for Judges.
Where, asks the Pittsburg Commer
cial -Gazette, is the authority for ap
propriating money to pay judges full
Halary, for doing nothing? "Let it be
conceded," It adds, "that the object la
a charitable or a benevolent one, and
elilill It does not fall within the scope
ot teglsTaltHon. The legislature may fix
ithe salaries of judges, but It would be
a perversion of that power to contend
ithat the salaries may be continued
after the expiration of the term and
Bfrttr the places have been filled by
ot,her men, who ere entitled to the com
pensation. The constitution forbids
itihe appropriation of money tor chari
table or benevolent purposes, except
for pensions or gratuities for military
purposes, to any person whatever. If
there is any provision of tha organic
law which authorizes the pensioning
of the Judges or any oilier class of pub
lic officers it should be pointed out.
If the power exists even by implica
tion it would be very unwise to exercise
It. Such a precedent would not only
open the door to extravagant expendi
ture of the public funds but would
b-a antagonistic to the principles upon
whldh our clviil government Is based."
Would it border on Irreverence to
suggest that the eomntitutlon Is not by
any means above amendment or revi
sion? In the present instance eminent
authority has approved the Rlteir bill
as tnorougwy in Keeping wuii me ii n
of the organic law. It certainly Is in
keeping with liberal public sentiment,
and wen with the sdlish business in
stinct Whilich recognizes the merit of
und "bargain" offering a sul'erlor
nullity of justice In exchange for a
L'Ug'ht ilm-rease In our expenditure for
the Judiciary. If, however, a pension
system for judges should turn out to
be unconstitutional, we should haveaio
liesiLtatancy in suggesting that the
same end be attained by increasing the
pay of judges to a point commensurate
with tha lofty and Impartial service ex
pected of them.
The rumor that David Martin, owing
to "111 health." Is to retire from the
active management of the Philadelphia
Republican canvass Is probably too
good to be true, but it is what he will
havo to do, if the party Is hereafter
to keep head up and face front.

The President's message.
The attitude of President Cleveland
toward the present financial emer-
gency.as outlined In his message to con- j
gress re.prliited on another page, is one
of commendable courage and frank
ness. There was room for partisan dif
ference over the various steps which
have successively led up to this grave !
crlsls In our federal finances; but new
that the crisis is upon us, there will be.
among honest partisans, but one voice
and one aim the voice and aim of un
divided patriotism seeking by every
legitimate means to extricate the gov
ernment credit from the perils that en
viron It.

ble, which may be ciitcny aitriuuteu iu
the law thait permits tlie noiuer oi
treasury notes to demand their pay
ment In gold without providing for
their Immediate cancellation when lift
ed. Thus the government mignt ie
peatedly Issue bonds to recoup its gold
reserve, yet the drain upon that reserve
would continue so long as the treasury
notes by which it is accomplished
should be successively reissued und re
turned for redemption. The perpetuity
of these notes offers practically un-
limited opportunity for private specula- ,
tlon to despoil the government of Its
gold reserve without enabling it, in re
turn, to cancel a single obligation; and
th history of the past year shows how
thoroughly this opportunity has been
Improved.
The solution suggested In the mes
sage is general in its terms. It contem

In denominations of $'.'0 and J50 and
their multiples, bearing interest at the
rate of 3 per cent. These bonds are to
be paid for In legal tender and treasury
notes, which are then to be cancelled.

ditional Isisue of bonds under the pres
ent law Is plainly threatened.
It Is time to drop partisan contention
In this Important matter and get down
to patriotic business. Luckily, the trend
of congress is plainly In this direction,
and favorable response to the nies
sj.gn Is to be expected without long de
lay. The Philadelphia Times is Buffering

Scranton.
As to Game Protection.
The editor of the Honesdale Herald.
ex-JU'e Ham, does nut favor the
propoF'ltton to prohibit the shooting or
sale of grouse until l!)05. He asks, not
without Home Justification:
What are the older sportsmen to do dur
ing these long ten years? They may hung
their guns upon the familiar stag horns
until they become rusted und spoiled, hut
they will be of no use mull they are ten
years older. Then when their eyesight
hns grown dim und their limbs lire feeble,
they mu'y shoulder their double-barrels
and pursue, If they can, the grout flocks
of pheasants that this bill Is Intended to
create. Hut tho trouble of It all Is, thut
by the passage of the bill, its object will
not be accomplished. The game girds will
iiave enemies tenfold more d-udl.v and nu
merous than the shot gun. Tho foxis,
hawlts, polecats, weasels, owls and Jack
Front, destroy the bulk of the game, and
we presume thut even a Pennsylvania law
would have no effect upon them, unices
Indeed, every violation of II could he madu
a capital offense. We like to get out Into
woods ourselves occasionally und have n
little sport with these wily birds, which
aro usually quite able to care for them
selves against ordinary gunners, and we
have no liking to huve either our gun or
our self put upon the shelf for the re
mainder of our days, llesides, singular
as It may seem, these birds are most
plenty where the hunters are most numer
ous. It won't do to answer that the hun
ters seek them where they most do con
gregate. There aro vast forests all oxer
the country, whose solitudes are seldom
disturbed by the noiso ot firearms and
yet pheasants In such places are as scarce
as Mother Carey's chickens. The birds
love the presence of mankind nnd lire
willing to jun a little risk themselves In
reward for tho greater security given
th'em by the destruction of their much
more fenred enemies already referred
to. We would bs In favor of a law flint
should prohibit pot-hunting or the sale of
game of any kind, fish, fowl or beast, be
cause no ono Is entitled to any unless he
captures It himself or It Is given to him
by the huntsman, and to enforce the close
seasons already prescribed. We would
even go further If possible, and prohibit
the killing of game unless on tho wing or
on the run. Genuine sportsmen all ob
serve this natural nnd fair law flint gives
the hunted some chance for their lives.
Hut don't pass any such foolish bill as tho
one proposed.
If all hunters were as considerate ns
our Honesdale friend Is, the problem of
game protection, would not be a dif
ficult one. He must remember, how
ever, that he la an exception. Where,
out of a pure love for sport, he shoots
one winging grouse, ten of these rapid
ly disappearing fowl are nowadays
trapped by professional captors, who
find ready market for their wares in the
large cities. It Is not easy. In enforcing
a close season, to differentiate between
a reputable sportsman and a human
shark. Almost the only way to solve
this knotty problem, In the opinion of
men who have studied it carefully for
years, is to order all game-killing
stopped for a time sufllclent to repair
the havoc of the past.
Tho appearance of Senator David B.
Hill in the role of a political reformer
Is one of the enjoyable novelties of this
progressive season. In a speech before
the New York Democratic club last
Saturday night he said:
If corruption unfortunately obtains a
footing In party organization, let It lie up
rooted. If leaders become corrupt, let
them ho discarded, lletter no organiza
tion at all than a corrupt one. I thor
oughly despise that class of men who be
come ucthe In political nffulrs not to con
tribute something to the public good or
to gratify an honorable and legitimate,
ambition In the public service for which
they possess the requisite liuiillllca'.loii-).
but to secure personal gain and to pro
mote self-uggrandlzement. Such allies
discredit the party which they profess to
serve, degrade tho public service; and re
pel high-minded and honorable men from
active participation In political effort. Let
Ignorance, brutality, dissipation, specula
tive sporting, avarice anil freebootlug be
not regarded as desiruble qualities for
Democratic membership any where--much
less for prominence In Democratic coun
cils. Let better and higher standards bo
insisted upon.
Senator Kdward Murphy, the Um
pire state's speculative sporting junior
s-.'tuitor, elected such by Ills virtuous
colleague's aid. will read thrae words
with interest a,:id perhaps a quiet grin.

TheSeranton Record taken the proper
view of the subject when it asks: "Out
of the 20 per cent, of Pennsylvania's
children who do not attend school It
may safely bo taken for granted that
ut least tiM that number are the chll-
dren of parents who take no Interest in
tin' upbringing of their little ones, and
who spt ltd more money In u week 'rush
iivir the growler' than the children
could earn, while a large proportion ot
the remaining 10 per cent, would be
at fc'hool were It not for the sheer
ted of their parents, who, having no
education themselves, cure little for
.
their offspnlng. Is it might
that these children, who are growing
I up tn be American citizens should be
1 htandieapped for life because of any
ptvventlble reason V" The Record
i thinks not; and we fall to see how any
reflective person can .think otherwise.
Until the bank examiner shall have
completed his inquiry into the condi
tion of the closed Hank of Olyphant,
and made public his report, the part of
wisdom will be to keep cool and quiet.
Nothing is ever gained, under such
circumstances us now prevail in Oly-
pliant, by violence or loud talking. If
the bank is sound and solvent, It has
the right to a fair hearing of Its side of
the story. If not, It Is now too late to
repair whatever mischief may have
been dune. The opportunity now af
forded for common sense to vigorously
assert Itself is rarely equalled, ami
should be promptly Improved.
LEGISLATIVE TOPICS.
To Prevent IlluvkliNtlng.
The Curlcy bill to prevent the blacklist
ing of employes, now pending In the 1111-
i nols legislature, hus several novel point!-.
it provides that If any person, ugent,
company or corporation lifter having dlt,-
action; but this section shull not be con
strued as prohibiting any person, ugent,
company or corporation from Informing
In writing any other person, company or
corporation to whom such discharged per
son or employe has applied for employ
ment u truthful statement of the reasons
for such discharge. If uny railway com-
puny or uny other compuny or partner
ship or corporation In this stale shull au
thorize or allow any of Its or their agents
lo blacklist any discharged employe or
attempt by word or writing or any other
means whatever lo prevent such dis
charged employe or any employe who may
voluntarily have such company's service
from obtaining employment from any
other person or company, except us here
inbefore provided, such company or cor
poration shall be liable In double damuges
to such employe so prevented from ob
taining employment, lo be receovered by
a civil action. It vhull be the duty of any
person, agent, company or corporation uf
ter having discharged any employe from
his or tls service upon demand of such em
ploye to furnish him In writing n full,
succinct statement of the cause or causes
of his discharge, und If such agent, com
pany or corporation shall refuse to do so
within a reasonable lime ufter such de-
maud It shall ever after bu unlawful for
I such person, ngent or corporation to fur

discharged person from procuring em

employe shall never be used ns the cause
for an action for slander or libel, either
civil or 'criminal, against the person,

nishing the same.
The Uilllnmn Antl lloycolt Hill.
Philadelphia Press: "It Is absurd to
suppose the legislature can enact a law
thut will compel any employer to keep n
man when he doesn't want him. That
would be an Invasion of private rights
which could not be sustained. If It will
not work In the public service, and It hus
been shown that It will not, It certnlnly
cannot bo mndu effective In Individual af
fair. Such propositions as this can hard
ly have any other effect thun to Itenslfy
the feeling between employer anil em
ploye. It hns a tendency fo create hos
tility where none existed before. It Is
lacking In good judgment, nnd Is us un
reasonable us If the legislature should at
tempt to enact that a man must work
for a particular Individual, firm or cor
poration whether ho wants to or not.
That would be laughed ut by everybody.
Hut It Is no more ridiculous than to pro
pose that un employer shull keep a man
unless he wants to. Tho laboring peoplu
are constantly complaining beeuuse they
do not get the protecting legislation they
think they ought to have. We believe
them is a very general disposition to
favor them In every possible way, but
the trouble Is they demand so much that
Is absurd nnd Impracticable thut it brings
even their worthier propositions Into more
or loss discredit. They snerlllce popular
sytnputhy und support when they ad
vance mirh schemes us this, nnd every
sensible laboring man ought to see that It
Is not only unseless but positively hurtful
to his own cuuse," m
A Hard I net plainly Stulcd.
Huzleton Sentinel: "The way to remedy
the evils under which the men labor is not
by demagoguery. Any legislation for any
one class must hurl the balance of tho
community. We have too much clsss
legislation. Of course six-tenths of it Is
far corporations. The balunce Is taffy and
vote getting legislation to deceive the
workmen."
FAVOR SHERMAN'S PLAN.
From the Philadelphia Press.
President William Connell, of the Third
National bunk, says: "ln my Judgment
Senator Sherman's proposition to issue
bonds of small denominations Is a good
one. A free silver bill would be disas
trous. I would suggest a tax on foreign
silver so us to exclude the coin In the
sume ratio as silver Is produced In this
country. If wo could keep out tho Mex
ican and foe I (Mi sliver there would bo a
groat Improvement in our finances.
JOventually we will huve to use both
metals, but It ought to be on an Interna
tional basis."
Colonel H. M. Holes, president of the
.Moosic Powder company, says: "The
greut dllllculty Is that the receipts of the
nation nro less thun the expenditures. I
cannot see what can be done except to
call un extra session of congress, repeal
tne present tariff bill and pass one thut
will provide sunicieut revenue. I do not
heltcvu there would be subscriptions to u
popular loan nnlhuuting to anything here
while the government Is being discred
ited." Hamuel lllnes, president of the Traders'
National bunk, Buys: "1 think a popular
loan, such a:: suggested by Senator Sher
man, would be a success in the country.
I am a Democrat, but 1 believe thut con
ichs stiuuni attjoliin and the president
call the new congress together."
James A. Linen, president of the First
National bank, huvs: "1 think the three
per cent, popular loan suggested by Sena
tor Sherman would be token liberally by
the banks of Sciunton."
