Tha Truth expresses the truth exactly
when It says: "An ordinance provid
ing for the safety of the lives of the
people who travel on the cars and of
those- who use our streets should be
shaped and passed without delay, and
If the Scranton Traction company fails
to comply with. Its provisions It should
be compelled to make room for some
company that can." The killing: of peo
ple by neglect of councils has pro
gressed quite far enough.
The Factional Fight in New York.
A remarkable statement has been
Issued to the public by President Ed
ward Lauterbach of the New York Re
publican County committee. It con
cerns the fight of the Piatt faction for
partisan mastery over the Strong non
partisan municipal administration; and
makes detailed charges of an astonish
ing character. One of these charges,
bluntly summarized, is that before last
fall's election a friend of Colonel
Strong, Phillips by name, agreed, osten
sibly in Strong's behalf, that if Mr.
Piatt -would permit him (Strong) to be
nominated for mayor, Piatt could have
what hewanted in the event of Strong's
election. Upon this condition, Mr.
Lauterbach says that Piatt graciously
gave his consent to Strong's nomina
tion; but Strong now refuses to deliver
over the spoils. A second point in the
statement Is the Impression which it
conveys, mainly by inference, tha
Colonel Strong knew of Phillips' over
tures to Piatt and Phared in the deal.
The significance of this point is that it
tries io make Mayor Strong out a trlck
eterand a Har.whileMr.PIatt Isdepicted
as a much-abused martyr, whose only
offenaa has been unselfish loyalty to
Republican principles.
This, In brief. Is Lnuterbach's story.
Mayor Strong has hitherto explicitly
denied the existence of any bargain
whatsoever between himself and Mr.
Piatt. His word Is as good as Mr.
Lauterbach's, if not better than it.
Therefore we shall adhere to the belief
that Mayor Strong Is in the right; a be
lief which Is strengthened by the stand
ing and the public character of the men
who stand out as the Indorsers of Mayor
Strong, these men being literally the
most eminent and trustworthy group
of citizens possible of collection 1n all
New York. In an Issue of veracity be
tween Mayor Btrong, who most cer
talnly Is not using his official oppor
tunities for the furtherance of private
or personal purposes, and Mr. Lauter
bach, who is largely a political and pro
fessional creation of Mr. Piatt, and con
sequently in honor bound to fight for
his creator's political preservation, with
which Is identified his own future both
as a politician and as a practicing at
torney, we must decline to believe
Lauterbach and continue to ' believe
Mayor Strong. This, It seems to us,
should be the position of all persons
Impartially Interested in Gotham's bat
tle for a reformed system of munici
pal government; end the plea of party,
so lachrymosely raised by the Piatt ele
ment, should be considered only so far
as party organization helps along good
municipal government, and not a step
further.
But the chief trouble with Mr. Lau
terbach's statement Is that It says too
much. It virtually asserts that before
a considerable number of the respect
able citizens of New York can obtain
the assistance of the Republican party
In New York City in a work of publio
reform, these citizens must first arrange
terms with and promise spoils to one
Thomas C. Piatt; that before they can
secure the nomination to office of one
of their number, they must first cry Mr.
Piatt's mercy, sue for his all-potent
consent and admit him as the senior
partner, in all their deliberations and
publio movements. Mr. Lauterbach in
genuously speaks of this necessity not
only as absolutely essential, 'but as d
kind of proper, duty, expressed In the
words "true party loyallty." Tor our
part, we regard this assertion as the
most Impudent and disgraceful one yet
made in connection with the war on
Tammany,. Who is Piatt that he should
thus arrogate to himself the control of
the civic affairs of 2,000,000 American
citizens? Is the Republican party in
New York stato ready to subscribe to
the doctrine that this Juggling politi
cian, this wriggling manipulator of cau
cuses, conventions, k'Klslaturcs and
deals with Tammany, whose career has
for fifteen years kept tho Republicans
of New York In the shadow of defeat,
because they were there most useful
to him In his private schemes, Is to be
confirmed In his ridiculous claim to tho
practical czurship over municipal
affairs In our greatest city?
President Warren, of the Republican
League of Pennsylvania, has IhhuciI a
call for a meeting of the executive com
mittee at IIurrlHhurg April :I0, at the
I.ochk-1 hotel, for tho purpose of milking
urrangemuntH for the representation
from this state to the National League
convention at Cleveland In June. There
Is a member of this committee from
each senatorial district in the Htate
where there are organized clubs. Penn
sylvania will be entitled to four dele
gates from each congressional district.
The coming convention at Cleveland
promises to be the most Interesting In
the history of the National League.
Senator Frye's Platform.
Kvery American citizen who wants
to know what kind ofa foreign policy
his country should enunciate and, at
all hazards, sustain. Is recommended
to commit to memory the following
statement of Senator William P. Prye:
"I would not submit to any Insult, to
any aggressions on our rights, to any
violation of the Monroe doctrine, to nny
interference with Hawaii or Samoa so
far as our interests are concerned, or
with our project of constructing the
Nicaragua canal.
"I would annex the Hawaiian
Islands at once, Improve and fortify
Pearl Harbor, lay a cable from there to
the Pacific coast. I would maintain
our coaling station at Pago Pago
against the world. I would reach out
to take whatever in our opinion was, or
might be, necessary to our future com
mercial supremacy, being careful not
to violate the laws of nations, and to
be able to Justify our conduct. If
Spain, by her actions at any time, Justi
fied us in so doing.' I would seize and
hold Cuba against the world. This
island has been nothing but a sponge,
to be squeezed by Spain, utterly re
gardless of the Interests of the people
living there. Annexed to our country
It would soon become a paradise. The
residents are entirely fit for American
citizenship. I regard the acquisition of
Cuba as imperatively demanded, com
mercially and politically. John Qulncy
Adams, secretary of state in 1823, said:
'It seems scarcely possible to resist the
conviction that the annexation of Cuba
to our Federal republic will be indis
pensable to the continuance and in
tegrity of the Union Itself.'
"I would accept Canada as soon as
she was ready to come to us, and I
would not offer her inducements to
stay away, as this last Democratic con
gress did. They made her a present of
a million of dollars annually as a bonus
to remain under the protection of Great
Britain- to nag, insult and abuse us.
Even If England forced us Into another
declaration of war I would promptly
accept Canada and make her forever a
part at this republic."
That is sound Americanism.
The esteemed WIIkes-Barre Times, of
course. Is In error when It remarks that
"Judge Gunster's decision that the Prot
estant version of the Bible cannot be
read In the Waverly schools, In Lacka
wanna county, comes like a shock to
many people, but the Jurist explained
that the letter of the law meant Just
that and Its action could not be sus
pended by him In favor of Catholic or
Protestant, Jew or Gentile." The pub
lished reports of Judge Gunster's ruling
contain no clause forbidding the read
ing of the Bible In the Waverly public
school. We doubt If nny Jury would
construe the simple reading of the Iilble
to be an act of sectarianism.
President Andrews, of Brown uni
versity, expresses the true Idea when
he says: "Thinking people want bi
metallism with International agree
ment. If possible, but they don't believe
In waiting on Europe forever. Let the
signs of the times be watched, and
when all things are favorable this
country can, If necessary, take the
lead." The United States does not need
to hang on Europe's coat-tails.
There Is little occasion for surprise In
the decision of an English Jury that
Oscar Wilde has practiced, In private,
some of the lax moral principles Jhat
have made his publio writings offensive
to decent sentiment. A man who could
swear, on tho witness stand, that he
never wrote what he thought" Is prop
erly open to the suspicion of being ca
pable of any meanness. ' ,
Vice-President Clarke, of the Scran
ton Traction company, can, if he will,
conclude a shrewd stroke of enterprise
by directing General Manager Beetem
to fulfill his predecessor' distinct
promise relating to car fenders?
It floes not pay to do business on a
basis 4)f broken promises.
Judges are servants of the state occu
pying a. peculiarly delicate and ex
acting position, The proposition to
render It possible for them to retire on
full pay at the age of 70 years, after
twenty consecutive years of service, is
Justified if It can be believed that such
legal provision for their declining years
would be calculated to Improve the
quality" of their labors while on the
bench. " We, believe the result! of euch
a provision would, upon the whole, tend
to promote the public welfare.
Chicago's council, in passing an or
dinance forbidding glove contests be
cause its members, as one of them
frankly explained, were denied free
tickets of admission, must have copied
one of tho councllmanlo methods lately
In vogue in the Chicago of the East.
Is It from force of habit that In his
present fight for spoils ex-Senator T. C.
Piatt, of New York, goes for favors
to the one department o( Tammany
Hall now In a position to grant favors
the New York Sun?
?e commiserate tho Scranton Times
upon Its Inability to get a share of the
county printing; but can do no more,
than suggest that It reform its politics
sutflclently to deserve recognition.
Throughout another considerable sec
tion of Philadelphia the overhead elec
tric wires of all kinds must come down.
Why should they stay up In Scranton?
The small boy should be quickly di
vorced from tho toy gun. The union,
If tolerated, Is sure sooner or later to
work mischief.
One of the Traction councllmen mght
move that the city buy fenders for our
trolley cars. It would be cheaper than
being killed.
We are happy to announce that the
fciidcrlcHs curs of the Scranton Trac
tion company did not kill anybody yes

"Holland" In Philadelphia Press,
The udilress Issued by Edward Lauter
bach, ehalrinun of tho executive commit
tee of the local organization of Republi
cans, contains the frank udmlsslon that
the opposition to Mr. Strong Is arrayed
under the leadership of ex-Senator Piatt.
If Mr. liutt's friends in an olllclal ad
dress are willing to make that admission
he of course can no longer complain If ho
Is referred to ms the leader of the opposi
tion. Furthermore It Is hard to see how
this contest cun be ended except In one of
two wavs either by the absolute driving
of .Mr. liutt Into political obscurity, or else
In the greatest of all the triumphs which
he hus ever obtained. It Is either total
defeat or tolul victory tor him.
The Luuterbach address is unlike that
Issued by Klihu Hoot and the others, be
cause it Is hotly personal. It practically
accuses Mayor Strong of being faithless
to his promises. It Intimates that Cor
nelius N. Uliss is angry because Mr. Piatt
refused to support him for the guberna
torial nomination. It goes into details,
nurratlns conversations to Justify Its
charge of breach of fulth on the part of
Mayor Strong, and It reveals, at least so
fur as Mr. 1'lutt and Mr. Lauterbach are
concerned, an attempt to dicker over tha
spoils, a revelation which is decidedly un
pleasant reading. The prevailing opinion
here today Is that before the Itepubllcun
party is organized for the full campaign
there will have been a contest to the end,
and now openly with the purpose of de
priving .Mr. Piatt of such influence and
authority as he has had for the past ten
years In party management in this Btate.
Yet It has been Inevitable now for some
time that this issue should be made. No
body has attempted since 1884 very se
riously to contest Mr. Piatt's supremacy
In the Republican organization. His In
fluence Is due partly to his own ability
and partly to the fact that he has had no
earnest opponents, In the party at least,
worthy of the right of challenging him.
But there has been restlessness, some bit
ter feeling, and of course the inevitable
disappointments which create personal
hostility toward the dispenser of patron
age, for a period of ten years. Moreover,
there is a feeling It may be justified or
not, but it exists that Mr. Piatt repre
sents persona bosslsm. Mr. Piatt himself
has erred In several ways. He seems to
have fulled to perceive that these are
times when with great numbers of voter
party obligations sit lightly, and that there
Is an Impulse which is leading many citi
zens to take active personal part In poll-
tics, and citizens- who do not like to be
driven or to wear a collar. A little tact, a
little Indication of a recognition of this
feeling Would have strengthened Mr.
Piatt.
As It Is, I think that It Is safe to report
that Mr. Piatt's power In New York city
Is gone. Ills friend, Mr. Lauterbach, re
mains chalrmt of the executive commit
tee, but he will not be chairman when the
next election of committeemen occurs.
The opposition to Mr. Piatt controls now
the pRrty machinery In New York city.
Probably it will not hesitate to use the
patronage to strengthen that control. It
has the aqueduct commission, the depart
ment of public works, the dock commis
sion, tho legal department, and will very
soon have the police department. Of
course the merest tyro of the politicians
can understand what that means. Mr.
Piatt's opponents are likely to gain con
trol In Brooklyn, and with the splendid
patronage at hiB disposal below the Har
lem gone It will be strange If breaches
are not made in Mr. Piatt's lines elsewhere
in the state. Ills friends privately admit
that his power Is gone In New York city,
Tho great battle must bo elsewhere in the
state. It will call for the highest political
ability which Mr. Piatt possesses. If
ho wins It, and we shall know at the next
convention whether ha has done so or not,
ho will gain a greater triumph than uny
politician In New York state since the
day when lie Witt Clinton, thrown Into
obscurity by Tammany, and so poor that
he was obliged to tuko up a pen for his
living, nevertheless two years later tri
umphed and became governor of the state.
ASVIEWEDAFAR.
From the Philadelphia Inquirer.
WIIkes-Barre and Scranton, like Phila
delphia and Now York, St. Paul and Min
neapolis, Chicago and St. Louis, are rivals
from away back, and when they get a
chance do not refrain from holding one an
other up to ridicule. It Is the sign of a
grent and growing country when there are
so many rival cities and towns separated
only by a stream or a state, or what Is of
little consequence In the United States, a
few hundred miles, all pushing after trade,
all seeking, upon one line or another, to
outstrip their competitors and all growing
at a rate never witnessed In any other
land before.
Not long ago It was Scranton's turn to
laugh at Wllkes-Bnrre because there had
huen arrested In the latter city on the
charge of necromancy or witchcraft the
members Of a family bearing the name of
Baldwin. It waa a chance which Scranton
did not neglect to point out that WIIkes
Barre had been a New England settle
ment, to recall the Salem witchcraft craze
and to comment upon the curious circum
stances that the only modern outbreak of
witchcraft had been In Wilkes-Barre and
In tho Western Reserve of Ohio, which was
also settled by New England people.
The Baldwin family responded to the
sympathy expressed for them In Scranton
and one of them, after -she had escaped
tho danger of being hanged for a witch In
Wllkos-Barre, visited the neighboring city.
Whllo there, perhaps because she had no
fear of punishment In a town of such free
and metropolitan views as Scranton, the
visitor prophesfed that one of the Scranton
silk mills would be blown up on April 1
and that 100 girls would be killed. This
prophecy has given WIIkes-Barre the op
portunity "to take revenge upon Scranton
or Sloe urn Hollow, an the people of Wilkes-
Barro delight to call Beranton, in delicate
allusions to its comparatively recent
origin. For Scranton began to think tint
maybe Mrs. Bafflwln might be a witch af
ter all. The belief grew as the prophecy
was talked about and, on April 1, 1,300 em
ployes refused to go to work lest they
should be among the 100 of whom Mrs.
Baldwin hud said their dismembered
bodies would litter the streets of. what
once was called Slocum'a Hollow.. And
now the Wilkes-Barre Record rubs this in
by saying that Mrs. Baldwin played an
April fool Joke on the people of Scranton
and bestows upon her the title of ' "a
clever illusionist."
Here the episode closes temporarily..
Whether Wllkes-ilarre will make of Mrs.
Baldwin another Joan of Are. and hereaf
ter eroct a monument to the woman whose
wit has saved the city remains to be seen,
