The City SoHcitorshlp. '
Two years of exacting test In the
Scranton city solicitorshlp have demon
strated that James H. Torrey Is the
man for the place. There Is no need of
further experiment. The city's legal
Interests are In Bafe hands and also in
honest hands. They have, In those two
years, been well cared for. Notable
progress has been made toward putting
the once-confused records into proper
shape. Old claims have been settled
advantageously to the city. New ones
have been vigorously fought. The law
department's collections of money have
been promptly made and duly recorded
in suitable books of record. In every
direction consistent with a prudent and
honorable administration of the depart
ment's work, intelligent progress has
been achieved, creditable alike to the
city solicitor, and to his employers, the
people.
. What reason is presented for the re
jection of Mr. Torrey's present can
didacy for a re-election? No charge
ha3 been brought, against him. No
claim Is advanced that he has failed in
any of the essential qualifications of his
office. No challenge is made to a com
parison of records or professional abil
ities. So far as we have been able to
discover, the only basis upon which Mr.
Sando asks for an election to Mr. Tor
rey's position Is that he is a Democrat.
The appeal Is purely partisan; and con
ditions Its hope of success upon the
Idea that a faithful and painstaking
servant of the city, after a term of
eminently successful labor or the city,
must be deposed because another man
wants his job.
We have a high opinion of Mr. Sando,
personally; and do not doubt that he
would, if elected, prove an honorable
public official. But we submit that his
present candidacy rests upon an unten
able footing. The precedent of re-electing
city solicitors obtained before Mr.
Torrey's occupancy of the office, some
times under cicurhstances which would
have justified Its non-observance; and
was earnestly defended by Mr. Sando's
fellow-partisans. Why should it be
abrogated now, to the disadvantage of
an official who has, throughout an ex
perimental term, given entire satisfac
tion? Every consideration of justice and
fair play demands that Mr. Torrey be
re-elected. He ought to have no oppo
sition. The American people can be depend
ed upon to sanction none 'but honest
mone. Silver money can' be! made
quite as honest as gold money;- and It
Is notoriously unfair to assume ' that
blmetalllsts are cheats. 5 . . . .. .
An Unfounded Alarm. '
The amiable editor of the Philadel
phia Times Is doing a great deal of
promiscuous talking and writing these
days about "honest money". He has
churned Ills imagination Into a foam at
the thought that a presidential candi
date may be nominated next year who
will stand for dishonest money, for the
repudiation of debts, for the prostra
tion of the business Interests of . the
country and u.lj that sort of thing. And
naturally, he doesn't relish that pros
pect. We don't blame hlmi We
wouldn't relish it, either. '
But is there any euch danger? Do
any considerable number of intelligent
Americans want a dishonest currency?
Are the amiable (Phlladolphlan's fears
grounded In reason, or are they largely
imaginary? Before we answer these
interrogations perhaps It would b'e wise
to come )to an understanding of the
terms thati will have to be used In an
swering them. Take, for instance, the
"mm?
term "honest money"; What do we
mean by "honeet money"? 1 Do' we
Wan money coIiilmI exclusively of the
Inordinately .appreciated yellow metal
that certain rich speculators in London
and New York want to force uion us,
because it will doublo their pronto and
decrease our national wealth? Or does
tt mean, in the clear language of the
lost Itepubllcan national platform, the
"use of both gold and silver as stand
ard money, with such ref riot ions and
under such provisions, to be deter
mined by legislation, as will secure the
maintenance of the parity of values of
the two met uls, so thut the purchasing
and debt-paying- power of the dollar,
w lint her of silver, gold or paper, shall
be at all time equal"?
If the former is "honest" money,
honest money is probably doomed, and
Colonel McClure's nervous tension Jus
tified. But If by "hontt" money we'meari
money that Is honest all the way 'round;
to the farmer and the day laborer us
well as to the banker and the dealer
In foreign exchange; to John on the old
homestead or In the village hop ns
well ii t to James In the line city count
ing room or upon the floor of the pala
tial board of tiiule, then we are of the
opinion that our esteemed Philadelphia
contemporary Is barking to no purpose
up a tree uninhabited by live game.
To be sure, there are sliver extrem
ists, just as thro are cranks of divers
fads and hues. But the sensible masses
are neither going to give way to the
wnlte metal zealots nor are they going
to let shrewder zealots on the other side
stampedo them into a costly surrender
to the cant per cent, note shavers of
Great Britain and Gotham.
Spain's distrust of American senti
ment toward the Cuban revolution is
une of the neatest compliments of tho
season.
The Amiable Hr. Clark.
The remark of Vice President CInvk,
of the Scranton Traction company, that
his company la ready to equip Its cars
with fenders just aa soon as good fenders
aro Invented has a familiar sound. It Is
the standing excuse of impecunious or
penurious trolly managers for not tak
ing necessary precautions against the
sacrifice of life or limb. Mr. Clark
knows that good fenders have been in
vented; that they are In daily use in
dozens of American cities, among
others by companies In which he is
understood to be financially Interested
as In Pittsburg and, finally, that the
reason why he has not provided the
street cars of Scranton with these life
saving appliances Is simply because the
corporation of which he is vice presi
dent Is too stingy to expend the requi
site money.
If Mr. Clark were sincere in his as
sumed ignorance of the existence of
effective car fenders; that Is, if he were
honestly open to instruction upon the
subject, we would not hestitate to con
tract to remove from his mind all doubt
as to the fact that car fenders are daily
saving life. One does not need to
journey further than to Baltimore to
discover a system of fenders which Is
at once cheap, practical and effective.
Within three months In that city not
a single fatal accident has been re
ported; w'hile nearly fifty persons have
been picked up uninjured. A similarly
satisfactory type of fender Is in use in
Buffalo; and also upon certain lines in
Cleveland. Indeed, more than thirty
large American cities have "fenders
that fend," whereas, In New York,
where no fenders are employed as yet,
the trolley death list for 1893 had, up
to last Saturday, reached 97.
But, of course, Vice President Clark is
not yearning to make the acquaintance
of a satisfactory type of fender. He
knows a trick worth two of that. Hav
ing obtained, to all appearances, an
air-tight "cinch" on councils, he prefers
to let his motormen run at twenty miles
an hour through our crowded streets,
killing or maiming people who do not
acknowledge the Traction company's
ownership of those streets, and taking
chances on being mulcted in damages.
With councils at his back, he knows he
can laugh at public sentiment and snap
his fingers In the face of injured vic
tims. To be sure, Vice President Clark,
through a responsible agent, more than
a year ago promised that the street cars
should be provided with fenders within
three months. Hut that was only a
promise. What does a promise amount
to to a corporation which has councils
In Its vest pocket?
The claim that the charter of the
People's Street Railway company gives
It the right to lay a track or tracks In
any street In the city will doubtless be
asserted by its lessee, the Scranton
Traction company, If the court shall
affirm its right, under the Franklin
avenue ordinance, to parallel the. Bub
urban' company's track on that avenue.
But It will neither-be conceded nor
realized without one of the ' biggest
fights In the city's annals. . It Is proper
that this fact should be known In ad
vance. A defensive coalition among the
South American republics may be one
bf the consequences of England's at
tempted grab of Venezuelan territory.
But that would be quite unnecessary
If the Cleveland administration would
adequately enforce the Monroe doc
trine. Among the contemporary cost of
Democratic misrule we notice an In
crease during March of 118,000,000 in the
public' debt. The Democratic party is
without a peer as a debt-creator.
t The report that two American war
ships have been ordered to set sail for
Turkey, for the purpose of Impressing
upon the Sublime Forte the fact that a
contemplated massacre . of American
missionaries would not be conducive
to Us health, Is Important, if true. If
not true, It ought to be. The United
States has snoozed quite long enough
in the, face of danger to its citizens in
Turkey. ,
The recent test of antitoxin in this
city, under tho auspices of Health Offi
cer Allen, was probably the most thor
ough vindication yet recorded of tho
claims made In behalf of the new scrum
treatment for dlphtherlu, Tho diph
theritic patient was roused from a
moribund condition, that would other
wise have ended, within two hours, In
death; nineteen hours luter the mem
brane disappeared and three days later
tho patient was well. Under skilful
administration, antitoxin may fairly
be regarded as a almost certain life
saver In cases of malignant diphtheria.
Alderman Fltzulmmons' construction
of section 40 of the city ordinances gov
erning nuisances, as applied to keepers
of night lunch wagons who have com
plied with station 30, Is so manifestly
preposterous and at variance with com
mon sense that we hope it will be re
pudiated by a higher court as n de
liberate perversion of the law. Such a
rebuke Is, In our judgment, necessary
as a protection of honest citizens In
their orderly pursuit of a legitimate
business.
A good deal of nonsense Is printed
about the unwillingness of the grang
ers at Hairislmrg to do justice to oleo.
Are the grangers the only persons who
have to be considered In the enactment
of legislation in this state?
Mr. Piatt Is losing his temper.
"Scratch a reformer," he ungrlly de
clares, "and you will find a llar." But
that has an offset. Scratch Tom Piatt
these days and you will find a political
corpse.
Official announcement is now made
that ex-Clerk Kerr will head the re
volt against Harrlty, and win, if possi
ble, the halo of martyrdom in a pre
sumably righteous cause.
CIVIL StKVICU KLI ORM.
From the Philadelphia Times.
The Pennsylvania legislature has not
done Itself credit by refusing considera
tion to the measure proposing a system of
state and municipal civil service. An ef
fort was made, In which Representative
Moore, of Chester, boro a prominent purt,
to place the bill on the calendar of the
house, but a majority of seven voted
unalnst It, and the bill Is now regarded as
practically dead. It Is assumed by the
leaders of the majority In Philadelphia and
in Pennsylvania that they can defy the
growing public sentiment that demands
the establishment of a thorough civil ser
vice system in both municipal and state
authority. They assume, because they
have commanded overwhelming majori
ties at the recent elections, that they need
not halt in the distribution of spoils and
plunder to conciliate the intelligent und
conservative sentiment of the state that
earnestly desires civil service reform. In
this the Itepubllcan leaders of Pennsyl
vania are not wise. The greatest danger
to a party is always when It seems to have
attained Its highest success. When it
seems strongest. Its supporters will more
freely and more fearlessly criticise its
policy and hold Its leaders to more severe
responsibility, and it would have been
good policy for the Pennsylvania leaders
to have made at loast one step, however
feeble, towards civil service reform in
our state.
Much ns professional politicians despise
all efforts to establish the civil service
system, and freely as they express th-'lr
contempt for all who teach it, Intelligent
politicians should note the fact that civil
service reform has never taken any steps
backward. Where It hus come It has come
to slay. It has been kicked and cuffed
from post to pillar by the leaders Of both
parties In tho national government, but
none has dared to attempt to obliterate it,
and the civil service system Is steadily ex
tending Itself Into the different branches
of the general government. It has gained
a feeble foothold In our city, and every
advance tt makes it will be certain to
keep, while the party that most pointedly
illustrates Its beneficence In city adminis
tration will be certain to command the
highest measure of confidence from the
people.
The measure that has been practically
rejected by the Pennsylvania legislature
is not a new or untried one. One sub
stantially like It Is In operation In New
York and Massachusetts, and the recent
Republican legislature of Illinois has
adopted a civil service system quite as
positive and effective us the one proposed
In Pennsylvania. The reform will be slow
for a season, but It will advance steadily,
and in a very few years every state In
the Union will have Its civil service sys
tem, and once udopted It wilt never be
overthrown. If the Itepubllcan leaders
of the Pennsylvania legislature had looked
alike to good politics and to good public
policy they would have passed the civil
service reform bill they have condemned
to defeat, and In the near future the same
men who have rejected this measure will
freely confess their error.
PLATT'S BAD POLITICS.
"Holland" In Philadelphia Press.
New York, April 5. If Senator Tlatt
went to Albany on a hurried mission to see
Clovernor Morton thnt ho might persuade
the governor to come to his defense. It Is
likely that the mission was not a success
ful one. Oovernor Morton does not want
to quarrel with Mr. I'lutt, and he prob
ably regrets, more earnestly than any
other Itepubllcan leader In the state, the
unhnppy quarrel which, as It now seems,
can only be ended either by the absolute
triumph or the oompleto defeat of Mr.
Piatt. Governor Morton, however, Is com
mitted to the very measures which Mr.
Piatt's friends In tho legislature are be
lieved to be now holding up, and as a
trick of o (Tense against Mayor Strong.
There Is no doubt aboutthat, for the gov
ernor has officially said so. To tho poll
tlclan It would seem as though a blunder
were being .committed In making the Is
sue over these measures, when It Is known
to every one that Governor Morton sup
ports them. The governor may bo com
pelled to use his Influence and assert his
authority. He may be driven to that po
sition by the act of the very men who now
seek to get his support. With the gov
ernor, the mayor of New York and certain
wavering Influences In the legislature,
brought over to the support of the New
York city Republicans, it Is hard to see
how the friends of Senator Piatt can long
maintain In the state outside of New York
the influence which until recently they
possessed and which they even now possess.
Rend It, and Pass Upon It.
From the Scranton Truth.
Tho messnge of Mayor Connoll was not
written to bo road hurriedly and then laid
nsldo. Its suggestion and recommenda
tions are the result of careful thought and
a proper appreciation of the city's needs
In vnrlcAiB directions. For this ronson U
should be read carefully and frequently
by members of the city councils, so that
Its wholesome advice may bo kept con
stantly In view and acted upon for the
public good. It is the custom to treat ex
ecutive documents usually with Indiffer
ence, and to forget them as soon as possi
ble. Our city solons should not do this;
they ought to paste Mayor Connell's mes
sage In their hats as a reminder of certain
Important duties they ought to perform If
thoy wish to serve the public,

Boston, April 5. Those who heard Rev.
I. 3. Lansing speak 'before the New Eng.
-4
land Mothodlst Episcopal conference, nt
Salem lust night, were startled by the
broadness of his statements. He said:
"We put a man at the head of this country
who is a drunkard. This is pretty plain
talk, but I am very careful not to make
a statement I cannot prove. We all re
member the naval parade on tho Hudson
river, when thousands of peoplo were
Obliged to wait several hours for the presi
dent to sober off enough to rev low the parade,"
Tims to Call Halt.
From the Rcrunlon Truth.
If this country does not want to havo a
much more prolonged and bloody wur with
Great Hrltain In the future, than was
cither those of the past, the federal gov
ernment has to take effective measures to
prevent the British government from se
curing another "Inch of American terri
tory," anywhere from the Polar oceun to
the Antarctic, from tho Atlantic to the
Paclllc.

Why the Washington Post wants the
next Democratic candidate to come from
the south Is hard to guess out unless tho
supply of sacrlllclnl lumbs at the north
is ho exhausted as to muke It necessary to
pii'k up something wherever It can be
found. To lick a rebel Democrat In a
presidential campaign would not afford
enough excitement to call the bund out.
Arc Our Councils Hypnotized.
From the Scranton Truth.
The traction company has no right to
run at a perilous rate of speed In the city,
It has no rlghL to kill people when It can
avoid doing ho by exercising proper pre.
ruuutlon; It should not jam people us tight
as "sardines In a box" on a steep grade
and thus incur the risk of a great disaster,
mill It oiiKlit to be required to run Its cars
with reasonable regularity.
