It t significant of tha desperate
trajts of the Quay men In this aection
that they are heralding the elllegcd
conversion of ex-Attorney General
Palmer to their side, when the faot la
that Mr. Palmer not only Is for Hast
lng In this fight but openly told Quay

' Jud Wlllant'g Real Peril
The claim so Ingeniously put forward
by the ad-wren :e of Senator Quay that
the interests cf Judge WlllarJ are juvt
es secure In ielr hands as In those of
his own chosen representatives should
: not, SJid we think will not, deceive any
man who takes an intol'.Iosr.t vlow cf
the situation. Tha cx r.c-.iubllcan
Judges of the Superior court m-j not th?
only ones whose names will enm: boforo
the state convention for nomination.
Certain large and lmpcf:--r.: r;;t:on3 of
te state are not represent la t'.ji ap
pointments made by the g3v?rnor. The
efforts that will b rnxde ty thtss im
rvpreaeaica ?ct:ona in ttate con
vention to secure representation on the
ticket will naturally be n-.ad3 at the
expense of those sections which Slavs
been moat conspicuously favored by the
governor. Northeastern Pennsylvania
has three of the six Republican Judges.
: via: WlUard, of Lackawanna; Klce, of
Luzerne, and Reader, of Northamp

trig counties, while 'but a Bingle coun
ty Monroe separates the third from
the other two. .

the question which now confronts the
friends' of Judge WIHard Is this: Which
, one or the tares judgos from north
eastern Pennsylvania would Senator
Quay be the more likely to sacrifice If

a fixed fact that Senator Quay will not
be Inimical to Judge Reedr. But he
must do something In return for the
support Unit will come to him from tha
northwest, - and it Is morally certain
that the attempt will be made to sacrl-
flee either WlUard or Rice. In such a
- contingency In whose ihands will the
Interests of Judge WlUard be most Re
cure In those of delegates chosen by
the Judge himself or those ssleetcd by
V gator Quay? That question answers
Itaelfi
The Lackawanna county Republican,
'' Who aweara allegiance first to Sona'tor
Quay and second to Judge WlUard, can
not be depended upon In any and every
mergancy that may arise In the state
' . convention to stand up fearlessly for
Lackawanna's candidate for Judge.
Indications are rapidly accumulating
- , that the Quay campaign of biufT, brag
and boodle In this county reached
th climax of Ha false pretense Just
about three long days too soon to win.
V. Would the sllk-Ptocklnged editor of

will have Implicitly done hla bidding?
Or will he make terms with the vic
tors and get in out of. the wet. leaving
those who foolishly heeded his declara
tion of wa,r without knowing what the
war meant, to straggle ho.neward as
best they may? This Is a question
worth the consideration of those who
are being deluded by cunning manipu
lators Into an untimely alliance with
the waning fortunes of tie Junior
senator. '
The Whole leaning of It.
Thanks to the intelligence of the read
ing and thinking masses, the real Issue
In the present fight, so far as the state
at large Is concerned. Is generally un
derstood. Quay has set out to nom
inate Cameron for president. In the
hope of controlling the federal patron
age. This point he has evaded, but
never denied. When In this city he did
not deny It. Letters from him, to men
In this city, give color to the theory.
To force Cameron down the throats of
the party in Pennsylvania Quay had to
bo undisputed master of the party
machinery, from Lake Erie to
the Maryland line. Henca his break
with Martin. Hence, alro, his sudden
fisht asalnrt reapportionment, which
carried with It the disposal -of eight
national delegate-at-larRe. And hence.
In conclusion, his desperate and furious
effort to gain' the chairmanship of the
state committee, with the enormous
power this will exerclsp upon the na
tional delegate elections next year. A
vote for Quay, therefore, can have
under present circumstances, only one
national and one sta.te significance.
Nationally It will mean Cameron for
president, with all that that Implies;
In a state sense, it will mean the pun
ishment of Governor Jtaetings for hav
ing tried to enforce f.ie constitution,
and the handing of the state patronage
and the state ofllelals over to Senator
Quay, to be hereafter owned 'by him In
fee simple.
This fiffht has also a r:snlflcanee p?
taininj exclusively to Lackawanna
county. Those who have been In a po
sition to get at ths Inside; facts are
fully aware that the contest against
permuting Judjs Willard to select his
own delegates Jmt as Senator Watres
did when he ran for lieutenant gover
nor, orlglnarted not through any
lofty motives of admiration for
Senator Quay nor yet from a
wish to "allow the voice of
the party to bs heard," but first, In the
vengeance of Congressman Scranton
against Governor Hastings for falling
to appoint ito a place on his staff a re
lative who had never served in the
National guard and who, for auglvt we
know. Is ignorajit of the first principles
of military service; second. In the anx
iety of a number of self-appointed lo
cal cbimplons of Senator Quay to "get
Eolld" with the senator so as to be
In line when a new lot of federal ap
pointments shall be mado; and third, tn
the combined soreness, bitterness and
malice of a ceteris of disgruntled back
number politicians who having b?en
elegated to obscurity by the Just ver
dict of their party, saw in the populari
ty of Quay's name an unexpected
chence to crawl out of their cofllns.
This Is tha origin of the
present fight aga-lnst Judge Wil
lard, and this afcv explains why. In
order to protect Judge WlUard from
such on Incongruous nnd untrust
worthy champlonnhip at Harrlsburg,
the Judge'3 true friends have been com
pelled to wae a war in bis preserva
tion.
Let It by no means be understood
tha.t we charge upor.i all the friends of
Sc-rator Quay In Lackawanna county
complicity in this spurious contest In
:he senator's behalf. Many hundreds
of Quay admirers ara no doubt de
ceived by t&e local "Quay" combine's
glittering array of false pretenses. But
t'ne tonator himself is not so deceived.
In his heart he full well knows to
what ba3e urea '.lie magic of his r.ame
Is being degraded In Lackawanna
county; and could he have realized
the sXuation tcs days eooner, we have
no hesitancy In sayir.g that all this
bitter contest would have been avert
ed by an amicable and honorable ar
rangement fair to all concerned. In
deed, we can areure those who are real
and genuine admirers of Mr. Quay,
that they can do i;he senator no truer
service ip the battls soon to be decided
at our primaries than 4o vote with
unanimity against the deceivers who
masquerade In his colors for selfish
purpose of their own. By so doing
tthey will fitly rebuke the greedy clique
of political backbiters who have treach
erously tried to encompass Judge Wil
lard's overthrow, and clear the way
for the real Quay sentiment to find
clean and ' respectable expression
through channels unpolluted rby aelf-
imterest.
Some of the Quay organs are al
leging that Judge Rice declined to des
ignate men ihci dealred to go to the state
convention; as delegates, and contrast
thla alleged action unfavorably with
that of Judge Willard. The, truth of
tha matter 4a that Judge Rice was
aaked by he Republicans of, Lucerne
tf there were any particular friends: he
ocaired to attend- the pohyntion in ;hl
interest and iae named some, precisely
aa Judge Willard did. The only, point
of difference 4a that toe Lusernei Repub
licans recognized the propriety of this
and respect the wishes of their candi
date, while in Lackawanna a faction In
sists upon selecting Judge Willard'a
delegates for him.
The Carbondale Anthracite la work
ing hard to earn it price. Its die
charge of billingsgate yeaterday at
Clerk of the Courts John H. Thomas
was as profuse and stenchful aa the
most fastidious Quay task-master
could well hope to hold his nose and
see. Cut it will probably have the ef
fect of electing Mr. Thorns delegate by
about double the vote he would other
wise receive.
I
We do not believe that the complete
history of General Manager Beetem's
connection with Laurel HUl Park this
year. If narrated in print, would be a
thing to which the Scranton Traction
company would care, to point with
pride, unless, indeed, it takes pride In
things that most men would shun.
Sc-me one may yet feel It a public duty
to put the facts In cold type.
The amount f Quay money In Lu
strne county, according to one report,
is over 110,000; and yet our esteemed
PIttston contemporary, the M. S. Quay
Gazette, fears that naughty Hastings
hirelings will buy up the good people
of PIKston and vicinity, and thus beat
Quay. So funny, isn't it. that all the
buying is invariably done on the op
posite side!
In our opinion the .Republicans of
the Fouivh and Second Legislative dis
tricts have taken the measure of the
alleged Quay champions who are try
ing to ride to glory on the strength of
Quay's name; and tihat their ultimate
fate will recessltate the services of the
political funeral director.
It Is no doubt merely a coincidence
that Senator Quay's ballooned predic
tion, which he knew wasn't within 100
votes of the truth, was put out a day
or two In advance of the Lackawanna
primaries. If Quay was as right aa he
Is eiircwd, what a strong man he'd be!
The time may come when Senator
Quay will realize that those in Lacka
wanna county who counseled him to
peace and harmony were truer friends
than thoss who urged him on In a pol
icy of vengeance, party demoralization
and factionalism.
One of the truly amusing episodes of
the season Is the esteemed PIttston Ga
zette's discovery that the good Quay
people of the Fifth and Second Luzerne
districts are in imminent danger of be.
lng bought off. How sad; how very
cad!
After Saturday evening's grand
round-up In the Second, some of the
famous malcontents who are hilari
ously mixing in this fight will have a
trifle lesa fun, but they will know more
than now.
The effort to fight next spring's may
oralty campaign at Saturday's Second
district primaries may not be made,
now that the anti-Ripple forces .begin
to perceive the handwriting on the wall.
So long as Quay can use a man he is
a tip top fellow; but when the boss'
orders exceed the limits of tolerance
then the man who rebels becomes a
conscienceless Ingrate.
It Is unfortunate that so sagacious a
politician as Senator Quay should be
represented In this county by such
poor apologies for lieutenants.
At the same time, Quay knew he was
hopelessly licked, and that the most
he can now do Is to pick out a soft
spot to fall on.
"An unconscionable appetite for
spoils" explains the Quay uprising in
this county without the need of a dia
gram. Of course. Quay has the convention
now. But he'll sing a different song,
mayhap, when the real round-up oc
curs. After tomorrow, where will the Quay
bluffers find a peg to hang a hope oh?
Of course there is no such thing aa
bosslsm In Bess Quay's camp.
Senator Quay's little claim was evi
dently made to order. '
COMMENT OF THE PRESS.
- An I'ncallcd for Attack,
Carbondale Herald: "This paper
Is not
the organ of either party In this political
campaign. It recognises the right of every
man to carry his sovereignty under his
own hat and still be secure from personal
abuse. There are. some men who have no
gentlemanly Instincts and know of no way
of answering an opponent except by abus
ing mm. we ore sure none win regret
more than the local Quay leaders the bit
ter personalities directed against one of
our best citizens, John H. Thomas, by the
morning paper. Advice given to the Re
publicans by a rabid Democrat does not
come with a very good grace as they are
likely to look for the motive which In
spires It. Either Quay's boodle Is potent
or a hope that Republican strife may lad
to Democratic victory must be the mqifring
cause. The man who Is attacked lp one
of our old dtlsens who has been a llf f long
Republican ana nas been Honored by our
people on several occasions with; a very
flattering vote. Every man from Carbon
dale who has ever gone to vvohn H.
Thomas in his official capacity has been
treated most courteously. He) has per
formed the duties of his oftlctf faithfully.
Nowhere In this struggle halve we seen
anything on his part that hat savored of
dictation. Only last evening we heard
him state that for his partlu was grati
tude that he, owed to friends which In
volved him In the contestT and he meant
to do his work fairly andAonorably. Sure
ly he has the same rlghi to oppose Sena
tor Quay that Mayor Hendrlck, C. a
Spencer, or any other gentleman has to
lopposa Governor Hhsftlng. The bigot
who assails a man for exercising his
American manhood ceserves the condem
nation of every goodJbitlten."
Harmony Could
ve Been Preserved.
i "General Hastings

bloa of Republicans for

of tha popular will.
he would have I
nominated by an over
whelming vote.
le waa defeated by tha
orders of Senator
lay given, as ha him-
sef and everybody' else soon recognised,
under misguided counsels. But no mur
mur of complaint escaped GfieraJ HaaU
lags, and he promptly took the stump la
manly fashion for the rival who bad been
wrongfully nominated over him. The peo
ple, however, resented the arbitrary f
erclse of power to nullify and defeat their
plain will, mad that dictation cost the Re
publican party and state four years of
Democratic rule. In UM the people had
their way and nominated General Hast
Irnrs. It waa their act It waa not the act
of any one or dose a men. Senator Quay
wisely acquiesced In It A continuance of
the spirit which,, prevailed in that cam
palga would have assured prolonged har
mony In the party and would have sus.
la! nod every leader In his recognised and
appropriate place. General Hastings had
no other disposition. He cherished no
grievance."
II II II
Cannot Jmtlify His Coarse.
Pittsburg Times: "When he comes to
talk face to face with Intelligent Republi
cans, how can Senator Quay justify his
course? He cannot hope to maintain the
silly misrepresentation of his newspaper
organs, that he is merely defending him
self from th attack of a hostile adminis
tration, when they know that Governor
Hastings filled every seat In his cabinet
with a conspicuous and well-tried Quay
Republican. He cannot appeal for abso
lute dominion In order that h may take
a subservient delegation to the next na
tional convention for Senator Cameron
aa Pennsylvania's candidate for president,
for he dare not acknowledge that that Is
his purpose. He cannot ask votes to re
buke the governor and sustain his own
position on the great Issue of apportion
ment, for there is only one right side to
that question, and It is not his side. A
campaign of mere misrepresentation and
low personal abuse of Republican leaders,
backed with lavish expenditure of money
among the vulgar mercenaries, cannot
win In the Republican party in Pennsyl
vania." II II II
Quay Alone Responsible.
Philadelphia Press: "Suppose Senator
Quay had not done what he did, what
would have happened? The state con
vention would have assembled without
contest; Senator Quay's slated candidate
for state treasurer, Mr. Haywood, to
whom there was no opposition, would have
been nominated unanimously; Mr. Gllke
son would have been continued as chair
man without objection; and all would have
been peace and harmony. That was all
that Governor Hastings and his friends
proposed; that Is all they are proposing
now; Is there any war on Senator Quay
in favoring what everybody had taken for
granted, what is the natural thing to do
and what would have been done as a mat
ter of course If he had not unexpectedly,
unjustifiably and lll-advlsedly thrown a
new challenge Into the arena? Are not he
and his supporters, then, plainly the. ag
gressors, and are they not clearly respon
sible for the conflict? We submit these
facts to all fair-minded men and ask them
In their own minds to give candid an
swers." II II II
Placing the Responsibility.
Philadelphia Press: "There need be no
concern aa to the present Issue and Its
effects on the future of the party. If, In
deed, there were any danger the responsi
bility rests on those, who make war on
the Republican administration. They are
the aggressors. The administration lias
raised no opposition and made no issue.
It stands by the organisation and the
policy which the Republicans of the stato
ordained by 24O.0UO majority. It accepts
the Republican standard committed to
its hands and moves straight on. The
warfare comes from those who propose
to strike down the administration and the
organization. They make the fight, with
out provocation, without justification, and
they bear the responsibility of the con
sequences. But it Is a contest within the
party. , The friends of the administration
propose to abide by the action of the state
convention. We assume that the other
side propose to do the same thing."
II II II
The Teaching of lllstorv.
Philadelphia Pre In 1890 William H.
Andrews, as chairman of the state com
mittee, prostituted the party machinery
to defeat the popular will, turn down
General Hastings and force Mr, Delamater
on the party. Senator Quay aided the
movement and that leadership resulted In
the election of Paulson as governor. In
1894 the popular will prevailed. General
Hastings and Ms friends led the party, and
he was elected by 240,000 majority. In
1895 William H. Andrews, who has been
sent to the rear, again comes to the front,
again mokes war on General Hastings,
again undertakes to defeat Republican
policies and Republican ' sentiment, and
again manages this crusade wits' Senator
Quay at his back. Do the lossdns of U90
and 1894 indicate that Republican safety
and success lie In standing with General
Hastings or with his opponents?"
II II 11
Purely a Selfish Ambition.
Tunkhonnock New Age: "Senator
Quay's ambition 4s a' purely selfish one.
He Is determined to dictate the political af
fairs of the. state to hla own political or
financial advantage, and to this end he
will sacrifice everything that comes In his
way. Rule or ruin Is his motto. As long
as Governor Hastings was willing to allow
him to make all the political appoint
ments, to say what legislation should be
sanctioned and what should be vetoed,
and, In fact, have full control of the reins,
all wont well. 'Such a Btate of affairs
could not but be belittling to the governor,
and when he,' arose to assert his sover
eignty war wis at once precipitated."
. ' . ii mi
Stand by Judge Willard.
Carbondale Herald: "There Is one
thing that I local pride should lead every
citizen in Lackawanna county to do before
he casts his vote at the primaries next
Friday, and that Is to see that tho man
for whom he votes Is in favor of Judge
Willard. Mr. Willard Is an able man, will
honor tile county In his official position,
and haj never before sought anything
from our citizens, in legal ability he la me
peer o'i any man among his colleagues
and In,' the struggle over the state chair
manship should our people be forgetful or
hisnterests, they will be very blame
worthy." TOLD BY TUB STARS.

With that torce and directness of speech that characterizes the American language,
