BCRANTON, MAY 81, 1805.
Tlie line showing made by the Grand
'Army veterans and the various patri
otic societies In yesterday's parade was
a fair reflex of the success of the day's
observance. In every aspect, Me
morial Day, 1S93, will live In the mem
ory of the people of Scranton and vicin
ity as on Ideal occasion fraught with
lasting benefit to all Its sincere partici
pants. . The Apportionment Fight.
It Is unfortunate that the question of
reapportionment should have been
needlessly complicated by the Intro
duction of personal Issues. The ques
tion is one of principle, and the major
ity of the advocates of obedience to the
plain mandate of the constitution have
taken their stand for a recpportlon
ment purely as a-matter of principle,
and In no spirit either of hostility to
Senator Quay or of alliance with his
enemies. The few advocates of this
measure who have chosen thAr atti
tude solely with a purpose to embarrass
the party organization ought not to be
regarded as representing the voice of
the Republican party of Pennsylvania;
end In pursuing them to the extent of
fighting the entire sentiment of the
state. Senator Quay Is In our Judgment
committing a personal as well as a
political mistake.
It Is not too late yet for the senator
and his friends, who seem according to
present advices to be In pofsesslon of
the balance of power at Harrlsuurg, to
draw back from the dangerous error
of defeating all the apportionment
bills. Having shown their mastery of
the situation so far as concerns the
factional aspects of the present fight,
they can, It would seem, gain nothing
by persisting In opposition to the mani
fest wishes of the people, but may, on
the other hand, lose much. The poll
tic course for them to pursue after
their victory In yesterday's caucus
would appear to be to turn the weapons
of their opponents against them by
themselves proceeding to apportion
the state equitably and thoroughly.
Such a course would satisfy public sen
timent, and prove to the public that the
senator's fight was not against the pub
lic, but against real or fancied enemies
wHhln the party lines.
It is well at this time to remember
that the wisest leadership is that
which keeps In touch and not at
words' points with public sentiment.
A Few Words as to Jingoism.
; Discoursing upon the theme "Cuck
oos, Jingoism and Patriotism," the
Washington Post wholesomely ob
serves that "Jingoism in the sense in
which the word Is employed In cuckoo
organs, Is happily a fundamental tenet
of the political faith of those men of all
parties who are In closest touch with
genuine American feeling. They are no
more desirous of needless wars or for
eign entanglements than the cuckoos,
but they have learned that the best
way to avoid war la to preserve the
dignity of the nation; to resent any en
croachment on our rights as a nation,
and let other nations understand that
our Interests in North, Central and
South America transcend those of any
and all European countries. The pow
ers of Europe are appropriating and
partitioning Asia, Africa, and all the
Isles of the sea, so far as the Eastern
hemisphere Is concerned, and they hold
large areas of territory on this side of
the Atlantic. If they were permitted to
strengthen their position on either of
the American continents, how long
would It be before a combination of
them would undertake to dictate to our
government, as has Just been done in
the case of Japan?"
Those who declaim against Jingoism
are too frequently moved Dy tne delu
sion that a nation of 70,000,000 people, to
which has by divine Providence been
entrusted the duty of demonstrating
the practicability of free self govern
ment, owes no moral debt to the weaker
neighbors on this continent when they
are menaced by avaricious European
powers. They seem to think that the
United States Is still In Its cradle days,
and. dare not yet take on among the
nations of the earth the duties and re
sponsibilities of mature manhood.
They are apparently trustful enough to
Imagine that a nation like England,
which has without compunction and In
the most barefaced manner stolen land
In every other continent on the globs,
would, In this hemisphere, suddenly
and voluntarily change Into a nation of
guileless philanthropists.
If it be Jingoism to Insist that no rea
sonable precaution be spared by the
ofllclals of a government dearer than
all other covernments looking to that
Ifavernment'scontlnued snfsty and" wel
faret and. to demand that bullyrag and
thieving natlona, when thny pounce
upon our little neighbors, be treated by
onr ovu nation precisely as every hon
est private American would treat an In
dividual bully and thlnt caught la Uie
act of abusing an Individual smaller
than himself than w or? tar Jingoism,
hot and strong; and we desplsa Uio
sane American who would not be.
Roguery and the Press.
The point Is well made by George F.
Elliott, president of the Brooklyn Law
Enforcement society, In a paper read
at the Cleveland conference of munici
pal reformers, that publicity Is a great
er terror toofllclalcorruption than pros
ecution or conviction. To the newvpt
pers rather than to detectives and con
stables and courts of Juetloo society In
this country is most Indebted for tho
growing popular Interest In methods
of municipal reform and for tho wide
spread popular reaction against Im
morality In public oin.ee.
The prosecution of one bribe-taker
serves rather as a cloak to hide other
offers and acceptances of bribes than
as a deterrent Influence. Tha convic
tion of nn oecnslonal boodler would
not, In and by itself, check political
or olnelnl corruption. But put uMn the
trail of n given municipal abuse the
sleuth hounds of a vigilant and fear
less press; let the facts of a vicious
system, rather than personal assaults
on Individual men, be pertinaciously
presented before the public mind in
their true light, and no other agency
will be more effective, both in stimu
lating public reforms and also In awing
roguery into Bilonce.
The persistent attacks of one Scran
ton newspaper, not long ago, upon the
high-handed course then pursued by
the Scranton Traction company toward
councils In the matter of a polo tax or
dinance compelled nn attorney of that
company abjectedly to Bue for peace
and finally resulted, In spite of the
company's opposition. In securing tho
ortllnance's passage. Tho same pub
licity, if given to other political opera
tions of this and other dangerous in
fluences In our municipal life would
be more effectual In safeguarding the
public rights than all the convictions
possible in a decade of rogue-hunting.
The newspapers have this problem of
bettered city rule largely in their own
grasp; and one of the triumphs of truly
Independent Journalism In the near fu
ture will undoubtedly be its approxi
mate solution. i
The Case of Hcxico.
Senor Romero, the Mexican minister
at Washington, has contributed to the
North American Review an Interesting
article bearing upon the silver ques
tion. He points out that while other
leading commercial nations have the
single gold standard the silver stand
ard In Mexico encourages very largely
the export of domestic products. The
silver standard, he says, also stimu
lates the development of home manu
factures. Such plants as cotton mills,
smelters, and so forth, are consequently
Increasing considerably, and even some
manufacturing plants of the United
States are being taken to Mexico. On
tho other hand, he points out that the
silver standard has greatly reduced
Importations. In summing up, he says:
We have more stability of prices,
wages and rents. Although our wages
are tow, there has beVn In recent years,
a marked tendency to their increase.
Our factories are not only in operation,
but they are being greatly extended
and new plants and Industries are be
ing established."
This testimony apparently confirms
that of recent investigators of the In
dustrial condition of Japan, also a sli
ver standard country. A maas of new
evidence has recently been given to the
public, tending to establish that . by
reason of the superior purchasing
power of the money In use In Japan, as
compared with the money In use In
gold standard countries, the agricul
tural and industrial development of
that country bids fair soon to cauje
trouble to gold-standard competitors.
In 1873, for example. It is contended
that the American farmer could get In
London 7 shillings for his bushel of
wheat, whereas today he can get only
8 shillings. The 3 shillings, on a gold
basis, will not, in 1895, with all the
decline In values of tho past score of
years, buy as much as the 7 shillings
would In 1S73. But the Mexican farm
er, with hla 3 shillings of gold,
which he gets In London for his bushel
of wheat can, It is argued, go home and
buy with It nearly 7 shillings of sliver
which In turn will buy him as much
produce as did his 7 shillings twenty-
two years ago. The decllno in purchas
ing power, In other words, hits the
gold-standard countries and dodges
thai silver-standard countries, thus giv
ing the latter adecldedadvantagewhlch
it is predicted will yet make them
dangerous competitors In the markets
of the world.
"We give this argument for what It Is
worth, and It may be worth very little.
But If, as Minister Romero's testi
mony would seem to prove, it has an
unsuspected degree df force, the fair
conclusion would seem to be that when
the gold-standard countries begin to
feel too keenly this predicted competi
tion 6f the' silver-using nations they
will make a concerted move toward
bimetallism, which would tend to
equalize values throughout the world.
In our own opinion nothing is more
probable than that such a broad system
of bimetallism Is the Inevitable solution
of world-wide alternations of boom
time and panics; and the only question
In this country Is whether we may
safely anticipate its establishment by
some form of Independent action to
the beneflt.of Bllver..
In tome-Tow's handsome twelve-pago
Tribune will appear the complete text
of an exceptionally brilliant story by
Harold Frederic, entitled "The Path of
MuTtogh." As the name Indicates, the
story Is laid in picturesque Ireland, and
its. characters are Uto-Ilk studies of
the Irish people. Every readier of this
paragraph is recommended to read Mr,
Frederic's charming effort, which Is
one of his very best.
The Scranton Traction company's at
tempt to accommodate those who de
sired to be transported to and from
the ball park yesterday was another of
Its characteristic Illustrations of how
not to do it This company is appar
ently bettor nt managing council's than
It Is at handling crowds.
Manager Barnle has sold that if the
ptcsent Scranton players will not play
ball, he will hire men who will. This
would seem to be a good time to put
the threat into execution. In a num
ber of Instances he could probably not
k'Se by a change of playing material.
Major Moses Handy Is afraid lest the
newspapers should weaken the respect
of the people for the United States Su
preme court. Ho need not be alurmed.
Tho only thing which has recently
weakened Is popular respect for some
of Us members.
Many Pennsylvania counties have
already elected delegates to the next
Republican Btato convention, which
will. It Is said, be called for Aug. 28.
Lackawanna will probably not care to
defer Its convention much longer
Notwithstanding all the fol de rol as
to Senator Quuy's attitude on tho re
apportionment question, It can still be
said with certainty that tho constitu
tion instrusts the subject to the legis
lature Itself.
The Republicans of Pennsylvania,
when next they select a body of legis
lators, would do well to Include a larger
percentage of men with minds of their
own.
It ic said there was a base ball game
In this city yesterday afternoon, but
few who were there were made aware
of the fact.
Upon the strength of his yesterday's
work the weather clerk could carry the
country unanimously.
WISE AXD OTHERWISE.
Some ono with nothing else to do has In
vestigated the way In which 100 men In
fiction are represented as proposing. Seventy-two
hold the lady's hand, 17 hold It
very tightly, 14 have lumps In their throat
and 9 exclaim aloud: "Thank heavens!"
Only 7 out of 100 declare themselves to be
deliriously happy, and 6 are too full for
utterance. Three out of 100 stand on
their foct when they make a proposal and
2 go down on one knee, while 9 mako a
formal prelude something like tho slow
music In the play, when tho villain appeals
to heaven to witness the consuming flame
of his nffectlons for the heart he plots to
ruin. etc. The behavior of tho lady under
the circumstances Is equally entertaining
and Instructive. Out of 100 cases 81 sink
Into tho arms of the gentleman, 68 rest
their heads on the gentleman's breast
and only one sinks into the arms of a chair;
11 clasp their arms around the gentleman's
neck, 6 weep tears of Joy silently and 44
wet-T tears aloud whatever that means;
-rt hnv. evpfl full of love nnd 9 out of 100
Tush from the room and tell everybody.
Only 4 are greatly surprised, and 87 out of
100 knew that something Was coming.
Flvo glgKle hysterically, and 1 evon
sneezes. Only 1 of loo struggles not to bo
kissed, while 6 kiss gentlemen first.

THE VOYAGE:
Out from tho harbor of the Shadowy Shoro
Wo sail Into the gladness of tho day;
A breath of spice from Islands far awny
Alllures us on to where tho doeep seas roar.
The lightning plays about us, and before
Our cleaving prow the tempest works its
way
With broken wrecks: but still we cannot
stay.
A voice beyond the storm calls evermore.
Wo spread our sails to catch the wind and
breeze,
Tho wandering zephyr, or tho simoon's
breath;
And on we sail, no strength nor pur
pose falls,
Till through tho sunset of alluring seas,
Through twlllnht splendors do we drift
toward death:
Tho silent Isle of Unrcturnlng Sails.

ANOTHER KIND OF GIRL:
ITo Frank L. Stanton, Eugene Field,
W. 8. Lord and numerous other poets of
good children the following humble lines
to a ncglectod little maid are respectfully
Inscribed:
She Is homely. She Is tricky;
And I am greatly grieved to tell,
Her hands are always sticky
With a chocolate caramel.
Hr dolly's battered features
Speak of many a frantic hurl,
She's the terror of hor teachers
That naughty little girl.
Sho can whoop like a Comanche,
You can hear her round the square;
Further llko an Indian sho
Often creeps and pulls my hair.
And she steals Into my study;
And she turns ray books a-whirl;
And her boots are always muddy
That naughty little girl.
She dotes upon bananas;
And she smears thorn on my knees,
She peppers my Havanas,
And delights to hear me sneeze.
Tot why I ean't discover
Bplte of every tangled ourl,
She's a darling, and I love her,
'That naughty little girl.

appearance. Hut not until a small girl
viewed them from a passing car did the
saintly crowns receive a truly modern des
ignation. "Mamma," she piped, "who are

THE RAILWAY MAID:
Tho train was crowded when she came .
A ma'.tlen rosy sweet ;
I did not know tier faco nor name.
But gave'her half my seat.
Sho took It with assumed delight.
And tossed her silken curls
So roguishly, an anchorite
Might love so rare a girl's
Assemblage- of soft sorceries.
Which she knew how to Bhow,
And I was glnd, entranced by these,
To find tho train so slow.
Sho said she was not traveling far,
And twirled a gorgeous fan;
Thrilled by so luminous a star,
I was a happy man.
I gathered from her facts of note
And found her heart as free
As an unsatlored sklft afloat
Upon a tossing sea.
On every theme, severe or light,
Some fit word she could say;
She knew each town that came in sight,
And all things on the way.
At length her Journey's end drew near,
And we should have to part;
I told her, In a tone sincere.
That It would, grieve my heart.
And when sho rose to leave me there,
Quite dismal and alone,
Sho seemed to me more sweet and fair
Than. I should like to own.
She said unto my frank regrots,
'Thanks for your words and sign.
But you'll be soon forgetting me''
A haze came In her eye.
"Dear friend," I eald, "your words are
true
(Once more she twirled her fan)
"I should soon be for getting you
Were I a single man."

This mild bit of repartee Is reported as
having occurred once between the poet
Saxe and Ollvtr tVenfl.'l1 Holmes. They
were taJklns about brain fever, when Mr.
8a xd remarked: "I once had a severe at
tack of brain fever myself." "How could
you hnvo brain fever?" asked Dr. Holmes,
smiling. "It Is only strong brains that
have brain fevor." "How did you find that
out?" asked Suxe.
The Philadelphia Record Is convinced
that art Is a funny thing. In the students'
exhibit at the Academy of tho Fine Arts,
It says, are a number of life-class studies,
which, as everybody knows, represent
nudo figures of both sexes, drawn from
living models. On Thursdrfy evening the
members of the Epworth league, then In
convention in the Quaker City, held a re
ception In the galleries. During tho after
noon a commltttee visited the academy
for tho purpose of making the necessary
arrangements, and appeared to be greatly
shocked at the life-class display. A re
quest was made that the pictures be re
moved from tho walls during the hours of
tho reception, which request was promptly
granted. At tho appointed time the gal
leries .were filled with young men wearing
white ties, and demure-looking young
women. Somo word of the pictures must
have reached tho latter possibly some of
the girls had strayed Into the academy
during the afternoon. At any rate they
were visibly disappointed. "Isn't It too
bad!" ono of tho young women was heard
to whisper to a companion. "The mean
things have taken 'em down."
