If the Income tax shall be declared

ought never to be tolerated.
High License Defects.
It will probably not be contended, In
he anthracite counties, that there is
any desire on the part of those en
trusted with official' responsibility to
enforce the Brooks high license law. In
stances of the violation, of that law are
notorious. Violators of It occupy, in
some cases, official position and make
no concealment of their disdain for the
law. Before there can be betterment
In the law itself, there will evidently
first have to be Improvement in the
anxiety of our public officials to bring
to the Brooks law's enforcement the
same resolution and aggressiveness
which, for example, characterize the
collection of taxes by them or their ap
prehension of offenders in whose arrest
they perceive the prospect of a fee.
Improvement In this quarter will prob
ably not occur so long as the public
Itself Is largely Indifferent.
At the same time, assuming that for
ward steps will yet be taken in the
matter of suppressing flagrant viola
tions of the high license law, there is
force In the suggestion of the distin
guished correspondent of our contem
porary, the Truth, that wholesalers of
intoxicants should be compelled to
keep a sworn record of sales and for
bidden under stringent penalty to sell
to unlicensed retailers. This principle
has already been partially applied In
several counties, the Judges of which,
taking advantage of the targe discre
tion given to them by the law, have re
fused to Issue licenses to such whole
salers as were known to encourage the
multiplication of speak easles with a
view to increasing the market for their
goods. Nor Is It likely that the United
States revenue officers would refuse
such aid to the commonwealth authori
ties as lies within their discretion as
servants of the jealous federal govern
ment. The marked discrepancy be
tween the five hundred and fifty or
more licensed places In our own county,
for example, and the twelve hundred
odd places 'which " take 'out federal
licenses ought, by comparison of
records, to point the way to its own
cure. We do not know that the federal
revenue officials would court or facili
tate such a comparison; but a little agi
tation would probably secure the enact
ment by congress of a statute providing
that these records be kept constantly
accessible to the public.
All this, however, is contingent upon
the supposition that the public wants
the high license law enforced. . But does
Jt? Our prohibition friends .certainly
do not. They say it makes compara
tively little difference to them' whether
drink He sold In a licensed or an unli
censed saloon,' They object to the sell
ing, wherever "consummated. Next to
them,, in this indifference, Stand the
great mass of saloon patrons, to whom
the high license, If it means anything,
means either an Increased charge for
drinks or a decreased size of drink.' The
man who drinks for the drink's sake Is
Reldom particular where he does his pur
chasing. Lastly, . we must name, among
those who are somewhat unconcerned,
the mass of Intelligent persona to whom
the very Idea of legalizing an evil Ip
xchange (for money Is repellent In
(principle, however necessary It may ap
1 pear to be in practice. The concurrence
f so many otherwise widely differen
tiated elements of Boclety In a policy of
carelessness touching violations of the
Brooks law leaves relatively few per
sons to agitate for that law's stricter
enforcement. And that Is probably why
the law Is so freely Ignored.
' The mayor of Plttston has declared
war on the "speak-easles;" and as a re
sult the number of liquor licenses taken
f:-(-:: :
out for Plttston Is the largest on record
notwithstanding the Increased coat. If
the state wants to make money out of
the liquor business, It ought to plug up
the holes-in-the-wall. Their contlnu
ance may fatten blackmailing con
stables and detectives, but it means
serious loss to the, county and state
treasuries.
Tlu verdict ''not guilty" yesterday re
turned In the libel case of Kennedy vs.
Beamish and Lynott, ' undoubtedly
tallies with common sense. Neither of
these defendants had a malicious pur
pose; neither wants to do any man an
Injustice and neither, we take It, will
upon complaint, refuse, when, In spite
of vigilance, an error creeps Into the
newspaper which they control, to make
full and reasonable amends. It is to
the credit of the jury which tried them
that It found no difficulty In perceiving
the obvious merlta of the case.
Another Reform Victory.
The significance of the triumphant
election of George B. Swift as mayor
of Chicago by a plurality of nearly
50,000 consists of the fact that Mr,
Swift's candidacy clearly represented
the conscience and the character of his
city. He had for years been a con
splcuous champion of honest reform
methods In the administration of public
affairs. He was the central spirit of
Chicago's Civic Federation, which has
stood sponsor for most of the reform
bills submitted at Springfield and care
fully outlined 1n these columns at the
time. It was Hie that wholly or par
tially drafted the corrupt practices act,
the civil service act and the corrected
assessment act which the Civic Feder
ation, by its Intelligent and persistent
advocacy, have made familiar terms in
all well-Informed centers of political
discussion. Cleanness and efficiency of
public administration have been his In
variable watch words; and the vlndl
cation of them embodied In his over
whelming election constitutes an event
of national importance.
It Is worthy of notice, however, that
Mr. Swift's election was accomplished
along party lines. He has been, at all
times, an enthusiastic Republican. It
has been his contention that even In
Chicago, with its large percentage of
vicious alien elements, there was suffi
cient moral and Intellectual reserve
Btrength In the Republican party to
accomplish practical reformation of tho
city's municipal government without
recourse to the revolutionary expedient
of organizing a new party upon the old
one's ruins. He will, as mayor, now
have opportunity to test how far pro
gress Is possible In municipal affairs in
side the mechanism of party. Unlike
Mayor Strong, of New York, he will not
have Democratic allies to placate nor
a hostile legislature to contend with.
Within the limits of the mayor's prerog
ative he will have a practically clear
pathway toward reformation, the only
opposition coming from entrenched In
iquities that cannot survive an open,
energetic and resolute attack.
The other municipal elections of Tues
day are Interesting In their possible
bearing upon next year's presidential
contest. Particularly so Is the Republi
can victory in Denver, supplemented by
a general sweep of recently Popullstlc
Colorado. It seems fair to Interpret
this as indicative of a disposition
among reflective western people to re
main loyal Republicans, without refer
ence to the Republican attitude toward
silver. In preference to espousing some
chaotlo new organization promising
everything but achieving nothing.
There seems likely to be no contin
gency between 'this time and November,
1S96, which would be calculated to
shake this allegiance. Certainly, the
growth in the east, among Republicans
not under business obligations to shout
for gold, of a sentiment in favor of
genuine bimetallism is sufficiently
rapid at this time to Inspire with hope
any western friend of silver who is
willing to accede to a reasonable basis
for the white metal's rehabilitation.
Judge White, of Pittsburg, is not
alone in the belief that the antl-oleo
law of 1885 Is "unwise and unjust." It
Is perhaps a petty form of tyranny, but
It is tyranny Just the same; and the
sooner the state legislature corrects Its
injustice, the better It will be for every
citizen of the commonwealth. Nothing
permanent is ever gained by the legisla
tive demagoglsm of which this law Is a
shining exemplar.
. . nisconceptlon.
If General Kerwln, as police commis
sioner, has resisted the obviously neces
sary reorganization of Gotham's cor
rupt police department, Mayor Strong
deserves commendation for Insisting
upon his resignation. , The people of
New York - have unmistakably pro
nounced for municipal reform. Good
politics, no less than good citizenship,
requires that Republican politicians
Bhall heed this demand, Instead of ob
structing its fulfilment. To this rule
there, can be no exemptions. If Mr.
Piatt and his following had earlier
recognized the force of this duty, they
would .have spared themselves a good
deal of unnecessary embarrassment.
We believe that their failure to recog
nize It was deliberate; and, therefore,
we feel glad of their deserved humilia
tion. Those Republicans who seem dis
posed to criticize Mayor Strong for
sturdily adhering ,to the non-partisan
pledges . upon which lie was elected
cither forget the conditions of his elec
tron as mayor or else lack a full com
prehension of the proper purposes of
party organizations. No doubt there Is
much novelty In the spectacle of an
American mayor honestly and con
scientiously endeavoring, after election,
to redeem the promises that secured his
election. No doubt Mr. Piatt and poli
ticians like him thought that Mr,
Strong would follow the familiar cus
tom of Ignoring every consideration not
directly contributing to the political
purposes of his particular "machine."
Their Idea of Tammany's defeat ap
pears to have been and to be now that
It was a command from the people to
substitute for the deposed Democratic
conspiracy of official rapine and plun
dor a new one, ostensibly Republican,
with Mr. Piatt seated in the throne
once occupied by Richard Croker.
Yet such opinions as these very oh
vlously are misconceptions. Unreflect
Ing persons may be blinded by the
partisan dust-throwing of Mr, Piatt
and his well-organized followers; but
the clear-sighted majority Is very likely
to mass itself courageously and fixedly
behind the sturdy common sense of
New York's reform mayor, and be pre
pared to sustain him In his honest pur
pose of resisting the rlngsters and the
place-hunters. Indifferent whether they
be Tammany Democrats, whom the
people last November kicked out of
ottlce, or IMatt Republicans of similar
Instincts who now.try to bully or cajole
their way into office.
And if, in consequence of their
malicious abuse of him, these disap
pointed spoilsmen should make Mayor
Strong a presidential possibility, as
now seems probable, it would be a
conspicuous triumph of righteousness
and conscience.
Governor McKlnley denies that he In
tends to make a swing 'round the circle
of western states and also that he ever
said he would decline a presidential
nomination upon a free coinage plat
form. This means that all is not news
that fills space In the newspapers.
It will perhaps be noticed that while
the Honorable William F. Harrity Is
not saying a great deal these days, his
political wood pile betokens many
symptoms of sustained activity.
The country would gladly welcome a
letter of resignation from Secretary
Gresham If it thought It would presage
a letter of acceptance by ex-Secretary
Whitney.
The Chicago race was to the Swift
by about the same plurality that
Gotham's was to the Strong.

Superior Court Candidates.
In case the bill establishing a supe
rior court should pass, there will be four
Republican Judges to elect. The bill al
lows the Democrats one Justice. This is
an administration measure, but the wishes
of the leaders are not always complied
with and this piece of legislation may be
buried deep with hundreds of others In
the closing days of the session. If It
should become a law, one man Is sure of
a position. Judue Stewart, of Franklin
county, Is the fortunate Individual. Sena
tor Quay Is his backer. Mr. Stewart was
the Independent Republican candidate for
governor In 1882. He has always been op
posed to Cameron, but the senior senator
Is keeping his hands off. If the court of
appeals bill Is killed. Speaker Walton will
be tho Indirect cause of Its death. He Is
moving heaven and earth to pass his
judge's retirement measure and In doing
so is Incurring mucn enmity rrom uiner
ent quarters of the house. A few days
ago he had about decided to go on the lloor
and ask for a special order for the bill.
He has now abandoned this Idea and will
let the legislation come up In its place.
The bill Is on the second reading calen
dar for this week. Mr. Walton has called
In all the members who he thinks might
be opposed to the bill and told, them this
was the only measure he was interested
In and he would llko to have It go through.
It Is also said he promised to oppose their
bills If they did not give their support.
A Story About tho Governor.
Every day there Is a fresh piece of po
litical gossip at the state capltol. These
romances for the most part thrive but
for a day and then give place to a new
creation of the politician. There Is one
tale, however, which has worked Its way
through swaddling clothes and the nur
sery and now seems, at least to Its spon
sors, like something more than a play
thing, its title Is short Hastings wants
to be boss. This story was launched early
In the session and men laughed at It. The
same people who were then considering
It as a Joke are now carerully examining
the story and some of them pretend now
to believe that there Is some truth In It.
Little evidences have, they assert, been
cropping ot. which go to show the gov
ernor Is lea.l-,g toward the Martin fac
tion. Within the next two weeks the su
preme test will come. When Mayor War
wick, of Philadelphia, appointed City Con
troller Thomas M. Thompson director of
pur He works, it left a vacancy for the gov
ernor to fill. Thomas L. Hicks, a Mar
tin man, Is the only candidate so far. The
appointment will not be made until the
senate reconvenes. Yesterday the can
didacy of Hicks was discussed at the cabi
net meeting.. The Quny people are op-
May Prcclpltnto a Fight.
This action was not pleasant to many of
the members anil they are now lined tin
against the speaker. One of the strongest
men In the house Is leading the opposi
tion and the light will be o. merry one. The
scrap will not be stopped there, but the
sentiment stirred up by the retirement
bill Is stretching out to Include the court
of appeals measure. Unless the tide Is
checked both must fall, in their grave

whose sponsors have been antagonistic to

posed to htm and President Pro Tern.
Thomas, of the senate, has served notice
that ho will oppose the confirmation of
Hicks If the name was sent In.
Wdnnmokar for Sonator.
Governor Hastings and John Wana-
maker, of Philadelphia, are spending a
great deal of time together now. It Is said
the big merchant of the Quaker City Is
working hard for Cameron's place In the
senate. ' A member of the house snld both
Hastings and Martin were favorable to
the election of the ex-postmaster general.
Wanamaker has long been opposed to
Cameron. Only lost summer Wanamaker
and Cnarles Emory Bmlth are known to
have worked hard to defeat a candidate
for the senate who was favorable to
Cameron. The antl-Cameronltes in the
senate have not yet agreed upon a candi
date for president pro tern, of the upper
house. 1 They would like to have Senator
Baker. If he will not go Into the race
against McCarrell, of Dauphin, pledges
will then be exacted from the latter.
They will make him promise not to an
tagonlze them In the senate.
Need of Trolley Car Fenders.
From the Carbondale Herald.
Attention has frequently been called by
the Herald to tho. necessity of street car
fenders. Mayor Connell, of Scranton, In
his annual message urges the Electrlo
City to enact legislation compelling their
use. It cannot be argued that they are
needed only In tho' larger cities. Any city
sulllclently populated to support an elec
tric railway should have the safeguard
suggested. Tho life of a resident of a
rural district is as precious to Its owner
and to those who love It, as Is that of a
railroad president to) himself and his
family.
A Timely Denial.
Rochester Post-Express.
Mr. McKlnley has denied the report that
ho said he would not accept the Kepubll
can nomination for the presidency If tho
party declared for free coinage. The re
port was manifestly false, as no poll,
tlclnn would make so absurd a proclamu.
tlon in regard to his future action. If Mr.
McKlnley goes Into a Republican na
tional convention as a candidate, he will
abide by the action of the convention
whether It is for free coinage or against It.

From the Wllkes-Iiarre Times.
