all other Issues have, temporarily at

When lovely woman falls into the
aratlaicntAl strain, there Is no telling
What (o expect. We hAve, from time
to time, animadverted upon the strange
ease of Mrs. Florence Maybrlck, at
present serving a life sentence In a
British gaol for the murder of her hus-
wand by poison. The facts In this case
: Bare been sifted by the ablest minds In
. the British empire, and all agree that
1 she Is entity as charged; that she was
--fairly tried, and that her sentence Is
Just Did ws say All? We mean all

' pursuing the elusive notion that Mur
'' eress Maybrlck may yet be freed, to
' follow ttie bent of her erring nature
. , Into new avenues of sinfulness.
y. "9u ewunple, we have before us a
,v curious letter signed by Kather'lne
t PrtndlvlUe, the burden of whose mes
' - sags Is that an International woman's
society fans Just been formed to carry
fl; ' on the agKatlon for this wicked wo-
man's release. The letter sets forth:
first, that there "are a large number
of mteillgent persons among whom Is
i i the lord chief Justloe of England who
i .Save thorourhly Investigated all the
; UetM of the ease.'and who believe that
this lady Is suffering penal servitude
. 'Unjustly; that she neither murdered her
, husband . nor . Attempted to murder
' him." Second, that "she -did not have
f a fair trUl;" and third, that "new and
; toportsnt testimony has corns to light
eince, wliloh, If It had been given At
a trial, eonvlotlon would have been
f rpesstble." In view of which and also
M other facts, duly and emolllently set

Ing sentiment favorable to a review of
the case.
The exquisite irony of raising money
by popular subscription to free the sin
ful relict of the husband, she first
wronged, then killed, "at a time when
hundreds of pure wives and honest
children are suffering for the necessar
ies of life would be patent to most per
sons; but It seems to be quite lost upon
the victims of this Maybrlck fad. Their
motives are Irreproachable; but what
a sad misdirection or phllanthroplo en
ergy, and what a pitiable waste of time,
money and sympathy!
An Opportunity Worth Oraspins;.
Scranton with all Its wealth and pro
gresflveness needs something more
than material advancement to place
her In the full rank of her sister cities.
She has devoted much money, it is
tru, to educational purposes and to
day her rank as leader In education for
younger citizens cannot . be disputed.
There Is, however, another grade of ed
ucation that as yet we have not paid
sutliclent attention to, and that Is the
higher education which is to be gained
In technical and professional schools.
Scranton as the center, the pivotal city
of oneof th most populous and wealthy
sections of Pennsylvania, as the most
progressive and advancing city of the
state, could well support one or more
of th.s? s.-hools.
Could we, by sufficient Inducements,
secure the removal to Scranton of an
already established and at present
highly successful Schoolof Law, It would
seem to be an opportunity well worth
examining Into. A school of the highest
rank, with scores of pupils, is looking
to secure a location where more fre
quent sessions of court are held than in
Its present situation and where it may
secure even a larger success than it at
present enjoys. There should be, and
we feel sure there will be, a strong and
united effort by our citizens to secure
for Scranton this school rather, than
allow some other place of less note and
with notably fewer advantages to In
duce It by rpecious argument to settle
there.
This Is a matter that requires prompt
action. Today's meeting of the Lack
awanna Bar association, called to con
sider the proposition of the directors of
Dickinson college for the removal of
the law department to this city, should
have a large and representative at
tendance. The Currency Issue Is Not Dead.
One of the significant signs of the
times Is the actloa of the directors of
the Manufacturers' club of Philadelphia
In declaring their unanimous opinion
that 'bimetallism, or the use of both
gold and silver as standard money, un
dr the system commonly known as the
double standard, would be bemeflclal to
the American, people. This belief," the
resolution adds, "accords with the tra
dition and practice of the government,
as the system Itself, in our view, does
Ir. a peculiar manner with the interests
of a nation which is the chief of all the
producers t)f raw material and Is heavi
ly fei debt. But, by what means shall
the restoration of bimetallism be pro
cured? We are confident that one
method Is absolutely certain to produce
the result without creating alarm or
financial disturbance, and without
Jeoparding the rights of either debtors
or creditors. It Is by the co-operative
action of the governments of great na
tions. Whether amy other procedure
would be harmful or harmless may be a
matter for argument, but this plan is
commended by sound Judgment, and by
the testimony of some of the ablest
financiers and economists In the world,
as containing ir.o element of risk.' We,
therefore, fully approve It and hold to
ii, and express the opinion that our
government should actively endeavor,
by persuasion or the use of other
means, to Induce other governments to
enter upon, an engagement to restore
silver to Its place as standard money."
This Is doctrine to which objection
can be made by no Republican In ac
cord with his party's last national plat
form. If we are to be guided by that
platform, International bimetallism Is
possible aind necessary; but If we are
to take the word of Mr. Cleveland's
free trade friends, who constitute the
chief champions of his recent and falsely-named
"sound money" campaign, It
is ain artful deception, or, as the Phila
delphia Record loves 1o put It, an "Iri
descent dream." For our om part, we
have not hesitated to express the be
lief that by means of certain restric
tions this nation could safely 'have com
plete home bimetallism, whether other
nations Join with us In silver's restora
tion or stand aloof. This, of course, Is
only a belief; and we are mot so wedded
to It that we would reject any fair sub
stitute which, by the consensus of opin
ion, Is deemed better calculated to reach
the desired end of an ample, sound cur
rency, every dollar of which shall be
the complete equivalent of every other
dollar. . If, for Instance, when the Re
publican! party says It wants Interna
tional bimetallism It means that It will
exert every reasonable Influence at Its
command to secure an International
parity, then ithat ought to satisfy any
patient friend of silver. It Is the silly
fight that Ignorant or Interested Re
publican pleaders for gold monometall
ism make on bimetallism that causes
many persons 'to question "Republi
can party's sincerity on this by . no
means secondary question of the age.
We notice the occasional expression
In eastern papers of a belief that the
"silver Issue" will not figure much- In
next year's political calculations. That
will depend upon the attitude of the
Republican national convention towArd
this subject. If any one believes that,
with A stationary currency 4 hd, a grow
ing, population, we are yet ready, to
atop the ootnage of stiver,' As It has
been virtually stopped by the Cleveland
f administration, he possess ea a mora
sanguine temperament, both politically
And economically, than Is possessed by
the writer of these lines.
Bays the Philadelphia Inquirer:
"The attempt new being made Inside
and outside of Lackawanna county to
array Judge Wlllard's delegates
against Senator Quay shows that there
are In the state some novices In poli
tics, whose services Judge Wlllard may
not Altogether appreclAte. who desire
to best QuAy first and let Wlllard take
his chances. These persons will bear
watching by Wlllard's real friends."
The attempt of the Quay crowd in
Lackawanna county to Ignore Judge
Wlllard's claim In a grand scramble for
self advancement under cover of the
Quay banner threatened at one time
to meet with some success; but fortu
nately that danger Is now over.
We notice In a Pittsburg dispatch
that there Is renewed talk of compro
mising the etate light by the with
drawal of both Quay and Qllkeson and
the substitution of Colonel Watres.
Whl chance there Is of achieving such
a truce we do not pretend to know; but
If the party at large wants to escape a
good deal of unnecessary bitterness and
strlfeit may ere long have to take a
stand, regardless of the fighting chief
tains. In self-preservation. Colonel
Watres, In such a case, would certainly
make an Ideal chairman.
As Senator Quay considers the large
number of former friends whom he Is
now alienating, perhaps permanently,
all because of a foolish wish to bend
the governor of this great common
wealth to his wishes as he would bend
a clerk or minor servant, we wonder If
he Is not sometimes moved to doubt the
wisdom of his gratuitous war. Fight
ing may be rare sport at the time, but
the sores It leaves behind seldom heal
in a day.
The promotion of Lieutenant W. S.
Millar to the Inspectorship of the Third
Brigade has been honestly earned by
good, hard, conscientious, every day
endeavor; and Is therefore most hap
pily bestowed. There Is probably no
man in Scranton who will not cordially
Join with us In congratulating Major
Millar.
Wild claims have been made as to the
attitude of State Delegate Northrop, of
Wyoming county, in the present fight
for fair play In Pennsylvania politics.
The Tribune has 'Mr. Northrop's own
word for It that as the Issue stands to
day he is a supporter of the Hastings
administration, and will so vote, Au
gust 2S. ' t
Tour true blue Quay man, with no
axe to grind, loves an open fight; and
has no time or patience for the skulk
ing attack now being made In the Sec
ond Legislative district, ostensibly In
Quay's behalf, upon Colonel E. H.
Ripple. Decent Quay men are above
this low type of vindictive personal
warfare.
Those who are for Quay In this coun
ty solely because they admire the man
will hesitate long and seriously before
training with some of the scheming
and vindictive malcontents who are
Using the Quay label as a shield to
cloak their own designs. This Is par
ticularly true In the Second 'Legislative
district.
For every word they say for Quay his
local rooters, on the quiet, speak two
words for the promotion of their own
personal ambitions.
The chances are that Senator Quay,
long before he left our county, wanted
In more Instances than one to be saved
from his friends.
One thing Is certain. The label
"Quay" In this county covers a fine
multitude of grudges.
POLITICAL GOSSIP.
Frank Willing Leaoh, who Is just now
the subject of state comment, made his
flint appearance In the political arena in
1888 an secretary of the state Independent
Republican campaign committee. It was
In this position that he attracted the atten
tion of Colonel Quay, who subsequently
made him his private secretary and after
ward secretary of the state Republican
committee. Leach assisted Senator An
drews In the direction of the Delamater
campaign five years ago. After the nom
ination and defeat of Delamater he under
took to nominate Judge Henderson of
Crawford, forjudge of the supreme court,
and was beaten by Judge Dean, of Blair.
Two years ago Leach had charge of the
fight in the legtelatur scalnet the Phila
delphia public buildings commission and
won. After that he was dropped by Sena
tor Quay because of his unpopularity and
nothing was heard of him until last sum
mer when he tried to organise a movement
to defeat Governor Hastings' nomination
by bringing together Congressman Btone,
of Warren, ex-Lieutenant Governor
Watres, Senator Gobln and other embryo
candidates for governor. He suggested
to them to make a contest'and the candi
date receiving the largest number of dele
gates should he the cho ice of the combi
nation. Mr. Watres refused to enter Into
such a compact, Leach was compelled to
abandon the scheme and General Hastings
was nomineMl by acdlamatlon. After
this failure Leach retired to political se
clusion, meanwhile drawing M.000 a year,
and was not heard of until the present
qu Arret. His appearance In state politics
means that If Quay Is elected chairman
Leach will be vice chairman. ,

Northwestern counties, which were neg
lected In making up the governor's assort
ment of judges, have a number of able
jurists whose nanus will be presented to
the Republican state convention. Among
them are Judge Henderson, of Crawford;
Samuel A. Davenport, of Erie, and George
A. Berry, of McKean. The name of Judge
Stewart, of Franklin, will also be pre
sented. II II II
Among those who have been suggestel
as the probable successor to Frank Willing
Leach Is Charles B. Voorhew, ex-chief
clerk of the lower house at Harrlsburg ahd

COMMENTS OF THE PRESS.
Lsserae la for Hastings.
Wllkta-Barre Times; "Luserne county
is entitled under the provisions of the
constitution to two state senators and
eight representative In the legislature.
Under the present apportionment laws
Luserne has one senator And six repre
sentatives. Governor Hastings, sensitive
to this outrageous Injustice, did every-thins-
In bis nower to prevAll on the fegls-
lAture to enact new ana Just apportionment
bills. He would have succeeded baa not
Senator Quay set up headquarters at Har
rlsburg and. with threats of applying the
lash to every Republican who refused to
obey his orders, and with the Aid of All the
Democratic members present, proceeded to
detest apportionment. To the everlasting
disgrace of the Luserne members of the
legislature be It said that a majority of
them obeytd the orders of Quay and as
sisted him In depriving the people of Lu
serne of the representation they ore en
titled to under the constitution. But for
Governor Hastings the county of Luserne
would also today be In process of dis
memberment. But for Quay and Quaytsm
the bill dismembering Luserne would never
have pesed the U-Klalature. Hastings
saved the Integrity of the county. HAst
Ingt would have given the county the two
senators end flight representatives to
which It Is entitled; Quay said no, and
applied the lash of Quaylsm to defraud
and deprive the county of the representa
tion to which it Is entitled. And yet there
are Republicans In Luserne who are too
cowardly, or too thoroughly under the
dominance of Quaylsm, to take a manly
stand by the sldsof the Independent, fear
less and Just Republican governor who
would strike tho shackles from Pennsyl
vania Republicanism and restore to indi
vidual Republicans of this state the sensa
of political manhood to which too many
of them have been strangers for years.'1
II II II
Cannot Follow Him.
nttsburg Times: "When Bonator Quay
declared open war on the administration
of Governor Hastings and demanded the
head of a member of his cabinet as tho
price of peace, he said he. would mention
the reasons for this on the floor of the
state convention' which will be after ev
ery delegate has ben elected and the con
test decided, In the meantime, so long as
the principles are being htld In which tho
Republicans of the state can make their
opinions felt, he demands deaf, dumb and
blind obedlencw from all who wish to be
considered his friend. To such a demand
for servitude In the miscalled name of
friendship, men with the spirit of man
hood In them can give but one answer,
and so It has come about that one after
another of the well-known Republicans
who have been the senator's strong friends
In all his past contests have declined to
follow him In this cruel and undeserved
'campaign of assassination' against &
worthy Republican leader. Such crea
tures as Andrews and Leaoh. and the
venomous llttlo coterie of reckless mer
cenaries who engineered the Delamater
abomination Ave years ago, ure as xealous
as ever for any battle that promises them
power and plunder, but they make Ignoble
substitutes for the strong men who would
still be his friends If he would but permit
them to be so with decent self-respect."
II II II
Marred by Clrenmstsnces.
Wilkes-Barre Record: "It is to be re
gretted that Senator Quay's first visit to
Wllkes-Barre should be marred by cir
cumstances which prevented our people
from according him the hearty reception
bis exceptional ability deserves. Under
other conditions ha would command an
enthuslastlo welcome from the Republi
cans of Luzerne county. But he comes to
us, not as the great captain whose genius
has unified the party In Pennsylvania and
placed It in a commanding position, but as
a candidate, making a personal appeal for
delegates pledged to overthrow the present
Republican administration. Under these
circumstances he should not expect that
open-hearted welcome which, he would
otherwise have received, and he must not
bo disappointed If the men upon whom he
depends decline, even at his request, to
place themselves tn opposition to the gov
ernor." II II II
Fslr Plsv for the Governor.
Philadelphia Press: "Governor Hastings
has not engaged in any factional contest.
Any charge that he has perverts and mis
represents the facts. He has labored pa
tiently and faithfully from the beginning
of his administration to avert any such
struggle. He has in repeated cases walveM
his own preferences and sacrificed his per
sonal wishes for the sake of avoiding dif
ferences. But he found by experience as
he advanced that th only way In which
he could have peace was to abdicate his
functions as governor and to surrender
all Independence of Judgment. All this Is
clear to every right-minded man. It Is
making Its Impression through the state.
Republicans are recognising that the gov
ernor Is only doing what he has been
driven to do in self-defense and self-respect.
The people like fair play and they
believe the governor ought to have fair
play In his administration."
II II II
Haw the Storm Coming.
Wllkes-Barre Times: "The departure of
Congressman Joe Scranton for Europe
takes away the leader of tho Quay forces
In Lackawanna county and leaves the little
band of Quay supporters there much de
moralized. Congressman Scranton prob
ably sees the coming storm and Is getting
In out of the wet."
II II II
Uow to Hsve Posse.
Pittsburg Times: "Senator Quay will
have abundant opportunity during this trip
among the people to see the weakness and
folly of persisting In his present course,
and let us all hope, for his own and the
party's sake, that hs will see this clearly
enough to abandon It, No overtures of
peace need be made, for nobody Is making
war on htm or desires to do so. He has
only to permit peace In the Republican
party In order to have It,"
