The Home Saloon Idea.
There will soon be opened In Chicago,
according to the Herald of that city, a
resort to be known as the "home sa
loon." Our contemporary eays of it:
"It will In some respects resemble the
ordinary saloon. There will be bever
ages, stimulating but not alcoholic.
There will be a free lunch. There will
be newspapers, periodicals and books,
Those able to pay for whut they want
will be permitted to pay. But the hos
pitality of the place will not be denied
to any -who are orderly and well-be
haved. Its promoters realize that men
cannot be kept out of alcoholic resorts.
where they get food, shelter and so
ciety, 9uch as It is, as well as drink, un
less an alternative resort Is opened pre
senting some of the same privileges."
In another place the same paper says:
People with warm homes to rest in to
lay; with newspapers around; with
imoklng breakfast tables served by gen
tie hands; with the ease that Income as
sures, and the happiness begotten of
pleasant social relations, know little of
the days of a man without work; of the
nights of a man, without a roof: of the U
jection of a man without companionship
he can trust, and of the proximity of BUch
a man to deswilr, to crime or to sulcld..
It is a dull student of sociological condl
tlons that assumes every man to be prolll
Kate or til-disposed who is homeless.
foodless and without means to provide
necessaries for himself. The home saloon
imprints no stigma on those who will ac
cept its hospitality. It will be free from
everything offensive to good morals, and
it will be an exemplar of good manners.
The hopelessly mean will not cross ;ts
threshold. Those who are worthy of help
will not seek its kindness In vain. It
will wound no man's self-resnect. If he
te able to pay for Its accommodations a
small sum will be accepted. If he have
no money he may get through It a chance
to earn some. ' The Irrepressible desire of
men for conversation on current topics
win ce gr&tined.
The foregoing recalls to mind a con
versation recently had by the writer
of this with a young Scrantonian who
expressed much the same Idea when he
eald: "I go to saloons. Why? Be
cause I have no other place to go to,
wherein-1 have the same freedom and
meet with the same companionship. I am
not married. I have no home, and no
present likelihood of one. In day time
I -work; but at night It Is almost like
being in a prison to sit solitary-wise In
my little, third-story room. When I go
out, I drift into well-kept saloons for
the reason that there Is, in all Scranton
o far as I know, no better loafing place
offering equal facilities for conversa
tion, smoking, and . temperate in
dulgence in food or drink."
If the "Jiome saloon" would solve this
young man'i dilemma, it would prob
ably be the means of directing Into
channels of usefulness a career which
is now in the dangerous crisis of In
decision 'twlxt good and evil.
Colonel Corbett assures the Mlnne
polls legislature that "when the ordl
nary bar-room fight or drunk en ntrfA
brawl is considered, where men throw
each other down and kick, gouge
cratch and even bite, then auch t
meeting as I will engage In with Pitz
a 1mm on s becomes a mere feat of clever.
nesa and Quickness." Rut h nnkiin
dear boy, is not dying for mre feats
of cleverness and Quickness. Snr-h
teats are a dear price to pay for the
prize ring a debasing tendencies.
An Almost Ideal Charltv.
nev. Dr. William E. Johnson, reotor
or tine Froteutant Episcopal Church of
the Redeemer, in New York city, has
begun the operation of a charity which
eppeara o be so admirable and yet so
feasible that Jt deserves a word of da
cciiptlon and of commendation. In the
center of one of (the most crowded por
tlona vt the city, a portion Inhabited
chiefly by artisans, Dr. Johnson has
blred an ordinary flat (house, in which
la maintained an industrial and art
fcchool, where are dally classes In ew
orocneang; aressmaKing, em'
lroiderIng, painting, music, dancing,
cooking and stenography. These are
the terms demanded for Instruction In
either of the branches named : Sewing,
crocheting, dancing, S cents a lesson
embroidering, painting, cooking and
stenography, 10 cent a lesson; music,
piano, CO cents, and vocal 10 cents a
lesson; dressmaking free. There is also
a children's department, in whlcth In
Btructlons in the ordinary English
branches are given to ufio backward
alckly or crippled children who oannot
gain admission to the publio schools,
The foregoing feature of this chart
ty, while inestimably helpful, are not
original. But Yiiere Is another feature
Which Is, It is the providing of trained
nurses to visit the sick at their own
homes at prices varying from, 10 cents
an hour to 50 cents for a day or night.
These nurses are trulneJ graduates of
the hospital. They ar In every In
stance as capable and as skillful as If
the charge for their services were 'ten
fold as great. Dr. Johnson eays that
the system of charging' for Bervlces
endered. albeit the charges are- only
nominal, lifts the enterprise rrom tne
odium sometimes attaching to fre ser
vice and at the same time makes It
nearly, if not entirely, self-sustaining.
The beneflclent Influences of suen a
charity for a charity it la, in the
truest sense of the word, although lit
tle dependent upon the gifts of the rich
can scarcely be exaggerated.
"So citizen is doing his whole duty
as a citizen who conceives of a public
officer as being anything other than a
servant of the popular will und an in
strument for tiie execution of public
choice. Officers are our representa
tives, not our substitutes. You cannot
deposit your vote In November (or In
February) and then Tetlre into the shell
of your own private Interests and have
any reasonable ground f,or expecting
that the government will be adminis
tered according to the principle which
your vote was Intended to express."
Dr. Parkhurst.
Religion and Politics.
The current report that papal censure
for Bishop McQuald, of Rochester, had
been administered through the rounda
bout means of a loquacious gentleman
In Chicago who, taking a reporter into
his confidence, proceeded to read to
him a "highly Important" letter from
Roma is somewhat Improbable. Never
theless, we shall be much deceived In
the present temporal head of the Coth-
ollu church If he shall not yet Indicate
his displeasure at the Rochester
bishop's breach of clerical etiquette, If
not of church discipline, us embodied
In his recent rhetorical assault upon
Archbishop Ireland. Upon the merits
of the genesis of this dispute we again
find ourselves Indebted to the Rochester
Post-Express for an expression of opln
Ion wihlch admirably voices. our own
belief, and, as we further believe, the
belief of nine-tenths of the progressive
Catholics themselves. Our Rochester
contemporary well says:
It seems clearer than ever that the lat
ter, in the course he took during the i
cent political canvas, did a great servlco
to the public as well as to the Catholic
church, whether he strained any Kplsco
pal courtesy In doing it or not. It was
said lu this state that Catholics oimht
to vote the Democratic ticket regardless
of their political affiliations, and simply
on religious grounds. That plea was
made by the Democratic candidate for
governor himself at the opening of the
canvass; and many Catholic priests, who
had been Republicans, advocated the pol
Icy openly. Archbishop Ireland merely
stepped forward and denounced the Intro
duction of religion Into politics. He urged
Catholics to vote on their political con
victions ana on no other consideration.
His position was sound In every respect;
and his action prevented the Catholic
church from being identified with a party
doomed to defeat In the nation and tho
state and to disgrace In New York city.
It was a frightful punishment, In the
worst period of the French revolution. If
our memory be not at fault, to lash the
living to the dead and flliiK both tnto the
Seine. Archbishop Ireland prevented his
religion from being lushed to a political
corpse and cast Into dishonor.
The attempt to Introduce sectarian-
Ism Into partisan politics Is bitterly
condemned by Protestants and Catho
lics alike, when It Is made by the oppos
ing party. Upon such occasions it
takes comparatively little courage for
one to register his protest. The course
that John Ireland took was not of tirade
against an unscrupulous enemy but a
non-partisan warning addressed to his
own Immediate friends and co-rellglon-
Ists in order to deter them from taking
what would have been an irreparably
false step false as a matter both of
politics and of religion. Bishop Mc
Quald, in censuring his ecclesiastical
superior for the utterance of this timely
and manly caution, struck a double
blow, one at his own party and the
other at his church. The party may
not resent Its share of the blow; but
were the church also to keep silent,
there would1 soon be an end to discipline
and a strong Incentive to a most unwise
mixing of spiritual faith and party
politics.
The Plttaburg Dispatch merely
throws the following out as a snigges
tlon of what may yet have to occupy
the post of honor In the newspaper of
the future:
"Mr. Breckinridge, his white hairs
tumbling In confusion over his forehead
and his sturdy frame quivering with emo
tion, made a vicious riKht-hand swing at
his antagonist, which the clever Mlssour
lan dodged. Heavy infighting and a rllnch
followed; cries of foul, foul, from the at
tendants or the principals, were swiil
lowed up In the yells and shouts of the
maddened spectators. As the Infuriate
combatants swayed back nnd forth.
soon became evident thut the suuerlor
weight anu nerve or Mr. Hrerklnrlilira
were telling In his favor, though the elec
trical sparks which were flying from Mr.
Heard's Iron gray beard Indicated plainly
that his backers were getting a run for
their money. Just at the moment when It
looked as If the whole affair must end In
a free-for-all knockdown and dragout, the
epeaaer succeeded m separating the prln
cipais, ana aeciarea the pout a draw."
we are coming to this sort of thing
very rapidly.
The inability of the Scranton Truth
to discuss the present movement in this
state for compulsory education fairly
Is rapidly becoming chronic. The lat
est Instance is shown in Its reproduc
tlon of a New York Sun dispatch from
London narrating a case of consplcu
ous cruelty In the enforcement of
drastic compulsory education law In
vogue In Great Britain. The' Truth
does not deem it necessary to say that
such a case could not arise even under
the most Inflexible enforcement of the
Farr bill. Indeed, we ore moved to
question if'our esteemed contemporary
has yet reud that measure. Certainly
Its comments do not bespeak a detailed
comptehenslun of the Farr bill.
"With reference to the Kearns bill to
give a 'penny rebate to standing pas
sengers on overcrowded street cars, the
Pittsburg Dispatch fears that the re
duction provided is not in proper pro
portion to the discomforts. It thinks
that perhaps if a maa gets a comforta
ble standing place Inside the car with
out too many people standing on his
toes, or digging their elbows into his
baolt, he would be satisfied with 1 cent
rebate. "But the man who has to
eland on the oar platform in a wintry
storm ought to have at least 2 cents
off, if any reductions are going. The
man whoi h&iigs on to a car step In de-
fault of a better place is paying well
If he gets 3 cents off; while he who is
reduced to climbing onto the bumper
nd clinging to the platform pays high
ly If he gives a cent for the privilege."
Why not solve the whole problem by
passing a no-eeat-no-fare law?
'I never could see how it was fair
to preach against the Ahabs and Jeze
bels 3,000 years back and be any less
pronounced in the respects we pay to
the same genius of depravity brought
down to date. It is Just a bit sugges
tive of cowtirdlce to pound the antediilu-
lans for -their depravity and ignore
the manifestations of equal wickedness
that are contemporary. If a man
preaches In that way It looks as though
he were preaching for his salary and
setting up his target centuries enough
away to guarantee him against the risk
of libel suits." Dr. Parkhurst.
Mr. Fussctt, of Elnilra, perhaps in
remembrance of past obligations to Mr.
Piatt, of Tioga, Is inclined Just now to
deprecate the disposition of Rev. Dr.
Parkhurst, of New York, to show up
Piatt as he Is. Mr. FuBsett, of Klmlra,
Is a loyal friend, und a betiter purtlsun
thuu Plutt deserves to have; but he
will flud his effort to discredit Park
burst Is a vain one, and his other ef
fort to sustain Plutt a clear case of
love's labors lost. The Republicanism
of the Empire state Is manifestly get
ting ready to shullle olt the Tom Piatt
coil.
One of the main difficulties with
Thomas C. Plutt ua a political dictator
Is that there Is nothing in his record as
u leader to warm nt such dictation. If
he had been a successful leader, If
under his reign the Republican party In
the Empire state hud ever won a clean
Victory at the polls, it would be differ'
out. -lie has, however, been uniformly
und Incessantly unsuccessful, and yet
he has the nerve to ask! the party to ac
cept orders from him. It is time Piatt
were looked at In his true colors. .
The difference between the two prin
cipal contestants for the judgeship in
Iiulluna county seems, from the eworn
evidenoe.toi be that one dispensed booze
In exchange for votes, while the other
disseminated boodle. It is another case
of the pot culling the kettle black,
Neither is fit to sit on a' bunch of law
In Pennsylvania.
Senator Camden, of West Virginia,
probably exaggerates when he says
that the Lord's Prayer couldn't pass
the United States senate without
amendment. The novelty of it would
carry it through before a man Jack of
'em could think of objecting.
If the trolley roads want to carry
freight and If the people want them
to, the oti'ly thing1 for the legislature to
do is to pass the Bliss bill. What the
steam roads want in this connection Is
of minor consequence.
A good state legislator is easily worth

a poor one Is dear at the smallest price,
Perhaps $1,500 a year isn't an unfair
average as the case now stands.

LEGISLATIVE TOPICS.
Of Interest to Typewriters.
Senator MoC'iuroll hus a bill on the cal
endar at Harrlsburg which udds leased
typewriting muchlnes to the articles
which are exempt from levy and sale on
an execution for distress for rent. The
Ihw how protects hired pianos, melodeons
ami organs from such execution, in this
bill It is required, however, thut the per
son hiring the typewriter shall give the
lundloru notice or the ruct.
To Protect tho Indigent Insane.
From Sam Hudson's Harrlsburg letter
A bill by Senator Snyder, of Chester
county, Is directed at an ubuse from which
there hus long been great complaint. 1
proposes to relieve the Indigent Insane
from being tho subjects for the practice
of fledgling doctors. It provides thut
hereafter It shull be unlawful for anv mil)
lie or charitable institution receiving stale
uld nnd which enres for the Indigent In
sane to put such patients under the enre
and treatment o'f any physician who shall
not have had at least two years' practice
after graduation.
Governing Trade I'nlon Labels.
Philadelphia lliillclln: "Senator Decker
Is bul king a bill that wus prepared by (he
trades unions. It allows any association
or union of worklngmen to adopt a trade
murk, label, symbol or prlvte stamp for
their protection and for the purpose of
designating the product of their partlcu
Inr labor or workmanship. It requires
that a copy of the label shall bo filed with
the secretury of Btnte and be published In
the newspapers as un advertisement."
tiood Noads vs. Officeholders.
Altoona Tribune: "The most vital
thing In connection with the movement
on behalf of good roads Is to persuade
those who would be most directly bene
fited thereby to manifest some Interest In
the mutter. At the present time It Is pain
fully apparent that our rural brethren
are holding back. They are afraid of tho
cost. In the meantime their representa
tives nt Harrlsburg are laying the wires
for the creation of a large number nt
wholly unnecessary ofllces at their ex
pense. It Is the opinion of the Tribune
thut the people of both town and county
should nt once delugo their representa
tives with postal curds protesting against
the creation of any new offices or the In
crease of any present official's sulary,
and urging the adoption at the present
session of a wine and workable measure
for the building of good roads through,
out the commonwealth, by the Joint ac
tion of the commonwealth and the coun
ties. There lu no earthly reason why
Pennsylvania should have any more of
fice holders. There Is every reason why
she should havo good roads. And tho
truth Is that the roads will cost far less
In the end and be far more useful to the
people than the proposed new brood of
olllue holders.

Need of Compulsory Kdneutlon.
Pittsburg Times: It would be a great
misfortune If dissension among the friends
of a compulsory law should lead to the
failure to pass any measure on the sub
ject or the enactment of a defective one.
Pennsylvania needs a good law on the
subject badly. With many thousands of
children out of the schools who should
be In them, large numbers of them the
offspring of foreigners Ignorant of . the
laws and constitutions of the state and
nation the necessity of some effective
means of insuring their getting an Amer
can education Is most, pressing, The
measure adopted should, In order to be
effective, contain provisions for a school
census und also for a truant officer, for
exclusive control by the educational
department and for adequuto safeguards
ana I Ha t the evasion of the law as well us
against the perpetration of undue hard
ships by Its enforcement. The question
of providing sufficient accommodations
for the Increased number of pupils which
tho law will induce should also receive
attention.
That Nervous Headache
From tho Washington Star.
Toll me, honestly," suld the novel
reader to the novel writer, "did you ever
sec a woman who stood and tupped the
floor Impatiently with her toe for several
moments ns you describe?"
"Yes," was the thoughtful reply; "I did,
once."
"Who was she?"
"She wus a clog dancer."
BEAUTIES OF FOOTBALL,
Line up, pass her back, keep the ends In
check:
When the umpire's back Is turned, slut?
em In the neck.
Paste a fellow when he's down, grind him
with your boot,
Break his head If necessary; scoot, broth
er, scoot.
Tackle 'em below the knee, gouge 'tun In
the eye,
Kick 'em In the abdomen and leave 'em
there to die;
Hear your Alma Mulct's voice rise above
the din,
'Anything to win, boys, anything to
win."
Never mind a rib or two, smash a collar
bone,
Sweeter than the sweetest music Is a dy
ing groan;
Mother sits up on the stund, anxious for
her sun;
She won't recognize her baby after we
have done.
Slug 'em once again for luck, break his
Grecian nose;
Muke him lose un eur or two, amputate
his toes.
Don't forget our motto, boys, do your level
best;
Now for Qod and country, boys, und
well, you know tho rest.
