Its "nobody's business but The Trib
une's," according to the Soranton Ke-
ubllcan: and yet The Tribune a tana
for fair play in state politic appear
to be flven our decaying contempo
rary a rvxkI doal of anxiety these days.
Remembering how. la the day when
even Its purchased favor was accounted
of some value in politics, it used to
"null the lees" of candidate for of
fice, the Republican affects to ascribe
to The Tribune a mercenary purpose
In the present campaign. Cut that
falsehood simply reflects Its own low
conception of journalistic ethic.
The African la the Wood-Pile.
Only a few months ago K seemed as
If, by combining In th nert Kepubli
. can nation! convention the votes of the
Uelesalte from the western sils-er states
with the purchasable delegations from
the Democratic south and adding the
solid vote of Pennsylvania. J. Donald
CaAteron could have been nominated
for presideot. Once nominated, the mo
meanim of the popular reaction from
the htcomrpetent Cleveland administra
tion wouM. It was thourht carry him
Into the white house, despite his per
sonal unpopularity.
In our judgment this) was the scheme
which Matthew Stanley Quay less than
year ago Intended, if possible, to exe
cute. At that time his away over the
Republican organization in this state
eemed potent if not Impregnable. He
controlled the legislature. He had his
Csger on the poise of all the state de
partment?, each of which was a rerita.'
tie asylum for his henchmen. Through
Davtt Martin he ruled Philadelphia.
Tarvgh C. L. Magte, who was then ac
quiescent if not openly friendly, he
manipulated Allegheny. The governor,
rresa irom ma unprecedented indorse
ment by the people, was to be kept In
gxi tumor by insincere suggestions of
a possible complimentary candidacy in
the national convention; and under
cover of these various pull the work
of selecting Cameron national delegates
was to be pushed with vigor in every
congressional districts while If any dis
trict revolted, the unit rule was to over
ride its protect.
Sxtft and sudden came this clever
scheme's disruption. Senator Quay's
old hatrt of trying1 to force upon the
party objectionable candidates cort him
the rupture with Martin and his control
over th Philadelphia delegation. Qrlis
take of the governor's natural ffefer
ence caused him to try to exact from
General Hastings the most humiliating
subserviency of official conduct and cul
minated finally In the open break. In
evitable from the very nature of the
eenaitor's plan. The fight on appor
tionment, the unholy alliance with the
(Democratic legislative minority, the ef
fort to oVpoft Oilkoson In behalf of An
drews and finally the senator's own en
try Into the fleJd as the avowed cham
pion of hi traditional policy of rule
or ruin are familiar event that fol
lowed each other In rapid and even dra
matic sequence.
Cameron, to be sure, has been
pushed Into a corner; but t was for
Cameron that the fight was started;
and'tt would be Cameron who would
pluck the fruits of victory ahould the
conscientious governor be publicly hu
miliated and Senator Quay win.
The Philadelphia Record,, with char
acteristic discernment, has perceived
ha DrnnoenaUts Indorsement of Quay
only weaken him among Republicans,
And It now Is leaving to Brother-in-law
aioClure the task of blowing die Quay
tingle among the Bourbon faithful. The
Record has some sense,.
Dethrone the' Little Bosses.
They have a perfect little Quay ma
chine fa running order In Susquehanna
county, with third-term Register and
Recorder Wright as chief engineer, and
Tommy Kllrow a first ambitant. They
ere under contract to turn out two
Quay delegates at th convention next
Tuesday, end there Is not much doubt
(hat they will do their level best to
meet the expectations . of the Junior
enator, although If they succeeded
their labor would be' hi vain, for the
two Susquehanna delegates could not
now save Quay from utter defeat In
the state convention, If little boss Sam
Wright possessed a particle of the po
litical sagacity that characterised his
relative, the late Congressman Myron
B. Wright, tie would respect popular
Republican sentiment la his county, as
Myron B. Wright did Ave 'years ago,
and thereby maintain harmony and
unity la the party and show himself
worthy of leadership.
The self-respecting Republicans of
Susquehanna ate la revolt against th
bartering, trading politicians who went
to Scraaton at the summons of Senator
Quay and there sold the two delegates
to him; without the least consultation
with their party associate. The bat
tle will oome off on Saturday In the
election of delegates to the. county con
VeaUoo. The Quay schemer have eon
trot of the party machinery and hope
to win by running In Democratic votes
at various points in the county In large
numbers. This the honest Republicans
can prevent In large measure by alert
ness, and we understand they will In
many districts circumvent the traders
and tricksters who have become experts
la Quay methods.
The Republican masses of Susque
hanna county have a splendid opportu
nity presented to them to throw off
the machine yoke, as their brethren In
Lackawanna have done and as they
are doing- in other counties throughout
the state. Including Philadelphia. Alle
gheny,' Bradford, lilalr, Luxerne.
Northampton,. Lehigh and Bucks.
Quay's leadership has simply becomo
an unbearable tyranny from which the
Republican masses are rapidly freeing
tlK-meolvf a. In almost every county
Quay ha had such subservient tools
as Joseph A. Soranton In Lackawanna
and Samuel 8. Wright in Susquehanna,
who would obey his orders whatever
they might be and at whatever detri
ment to the welfare of the Republican
paity. Scranton has been dethroned
In Lackawanna as the result of a reso
lute effort by self-respecting Republi
cans. The Republicans have It In their
power to dethrone Wright In Susque
hanna, on Saturday, and if they are
true to themselves they will do the
work effectually.
It Is pretty plain that Congressman
Soranton, when gubernatortally tempt
ed by Quuy, would have acted wisely
hud he said: "Get thee behind me,
Satan!" But he didn't; he went to
Europe.
The Principles Involved.
The Pittsburg Times ha compiled a
handy digest of the principles Involved
In the success of the administration's
side of the present state fight. We
ask every reader to peruse It with care.
The Issues to be settled, it says, are as
follows;
I. The observance of the mandates of
the constitution of the state by ttu law
making power and the fulfillment of the
uleJxe of the parly that this snail be uoue
11. The maintenance of the freedom of
the popular executive of the state, chosen
by the unparalleled majority of nearly a
quarter of million votes or Ms fellow ciu
aeus, from vicious and uncalled for at
tack for doing hi simple duty and the
prevention of his conscientious efforts to
faithfully discharge the obl!Ktton of his
high ottlce being neutralised by an lire
sponsible boss.
ill. The securing to the Republicans cf
the great cities of the commonwealth and
also thos of every county, and smaller
community In It, the right to select for
themselves the persons whom they desire
shall fill their local office, without out
jld interference from a non-resident po
litical manipulator In behalf of candidates
known to be unacceptable to the major
ity of the voters and whose nomination
will Invite party defeat.
IV. The eMabllshment of the true Re
publican principle that the local organiza
tions of the party shall be consulted in the
appointment to federal otUces outside cf
the classified service within tneir several
districts and that their wishes shall not be
ignored at the mere behest of a United
States senator, desirous only to take cate
of some unpopular henchman of his own,
regardless of the effect upon the party.
V. The making it clear that no loyal
Republican shall be ostracised, punished,
or defamed, simply because he righteous
ly protests against foolish and unpopular
conduct on the part of any leader, and
honestly endeavors to do what he believes
best for the party, though displeasing to
a would-be party dictator and autocrat.
VI. The making It evident that there can
be no juggling hereafter with the great
principles of the party by any Pennsyl
vania leader and 'that the heresy of an un
sound financial policy shall be specifically
condemned by the coming state conven
tion. VII. The establishment beyond all possi
bility of overthrow of the great and vital
principle that there is no room for a czar
or an autocrat In the Republican party of
Pennsylvania and that the voice of a ma
jority of its voters mu.st ever be more
potent than that of any boss.
All who favor irresponsible bossiatn,
dictatorial one-man power and the re
pudiation at will, by the dominant
party czar, of popular sentiment and
party desire should vote for Quay dele
gates. All -who believe hi decent poli
tics and fair play should vote for Ollke-
son delegates. This Is the Issue, In a
nutshell.
Tf Senator Quay's shrewdness ha not
entirely deserted him, he will save his
friends from defeat four weeks hence,
even though he does nut save himself.
: A Quay Claim Riddled.
fiava .(he Pltteton Cassette: "Hast
ings and Gllkeewa have carried their re
spective home counties, Center anal
Bucks, during the past week. Both are
Democratic counties. The Republican
strongholds are found almost solidly for
Quay."
Let us examine this !aitement. Lt
fall Bucks gave Hastings 1,69s and Cen
ter. ff21 nluwOty. Iioee that look as If,
under representative Rfipubllcan lead
er hip, t hese counties would re mal m
Democratic? It Is noS true that the
Republican strongholds are found al
m.t solidly for Quay. Since the pres
ent fight btgUn Quay has carried only
Ou-mi r.ounilcs Cohimbla, Greene and
Potter while the stle admlnlatratlon
has. In the same time, carried Bucks,
Center, Clearfield, Laotowanna, Went-
moreland ad Norlhajnpt'rti: tihree dele
gates against 23. The (three Quay coun
ties last fall gave a r.et Democratic
plurality of 1.183 as against a net Re-
putillcan plurality of 9,419 returned In
the same contest by the six Hastings
couaflee. Two of the three Quay coun
ties Columbia and Oreene are rock-
rVbbed In the Democracy; only one of
the six Hasting couwtlesNorthiamp
ton is Democratic.
Buit suppose we make the comparison
In smother way. -"We have foe-fore us an
estimated table of the comparative
trength of the two Taction in ttte cur
rent unDleasathtness. This table -I a
conservative one, and gives Colonel
Ouav all or a majority of the delegate
from 34 counties; while to Hastings and
Qilkeson It gives aH or a majority of
from 11 oouniles. while
two counties Oarbon wr.d Washington
are divided equally. Upon the basts
of the Harrison-Cleveland vote of 1892
we find that the Quay counties have a
net Republican plurality of 25,164; while
the .Hastings counties, in the same cam
paign, returned a net Republican plu
rality of I7,83 On he basis of last
fell's election, the . Quay counties re
turned a net Republican! plurality of
only 74,476, while ttie net plurality of
the Hastings counties was lf2,M7.
Wlrfls th table noon whioh Chess fla
tints are based is merely an etKHnate, It
SWucivniiy mmur nv iruui v mpivrw
conclusively th OaseH stwurd
claim that Quays strength h la th
Republican strongholds. Everybody
knows full well that the Democrat
are Quay's loudest ohamptons; and that
if they could decide this battle tttey
would quickly pull down the governor
who roll up 240,009 Republican plurali
ties, to order to enthrone the senator
who. by his dlalatorial bablla, has
twice, wltihln thirteen years, turned the
state government over to them.
8. 8. Wright, th Quay boss In Sus
quehanna county, has concluded to
withdraw "Tommy" Kllrow as a can
didate for delegate to the state conven
tion, and has pluced a new man In the
Held. Boss Wright will himself be
"withdrawn" before he Is much older.
The self-respecting Republican of Sus
quehanna county are becoming very
tired of the Wright, Kllrow tk Co. and
their machine methods of bussing the
party.
"It has been made pretty plain,"
says the Philadelphia Press, "that Con
gressman Scranton Is only one of sev
eral congressmen from this state who
have been taken up on a high moun
tain and promised a nomination for
governor If Mr. Quay pulls through."
Hut what will become of Joseph's boom
when Halting and his friends win outT
The fact that July's 'building permits,
while Including no exceptionally exper.
slve bulldlnK. yet aggregated 1:66,100 Is
an eloquent tvs'tlmonlal to the reviving
prosperity of Scranton. lPiippy new
homos Ait) a city's finest Jewels.
So far as the Third Lackawanna dis
trict Is concerned. It 1 safe to guess
that It will align with the rest for de
cent politics and fair play.
It's dollar to doughnuts that Wright,
Kllrow & Co. will not be able to deliver
tho goods.
We will give a penny for Joe's
thoughts.

"There wilt be no compromise of tho
contest Senator Quay Is waging against
the state administration, and all talk of
such is idle nonsense," was the statement
of C. L. Magee when an Interview In re
gard to the compromise rumors was re
quested on Tuesday by a Pittsburg re
porter. "Chairman Qilkeson already has
defeated Senator Quay for the state chair
manship, and talk of a compromise now is
little short of nonsensical," continued the
Pittsburg politician. "It all comes from
the adherents of tha Junior senator from
Pennsylvania, and you do not hear any of
Governor Hastings' friends advising that
the political battle be compromised. It
certainly has gone too far for that."
:o: :o: :o:
"There is no Allison boom and there will
be no Allison boom." Th statement was
made In a decisive and Incisive manner by
Congressman Hepburn, of Iowa, who ar
rived In Washington Tuesday from the
Hawkeye state. He added: "You may
give It out cold that Senator Allison will
not spend any time nor thought nor any
effort In seeking the presidency. He will
surely not spend any money, because he
has none. He is a poor man today, after
nearly thirty-five years In public life.
He wants to be re-elected to the senate
and that Is his only present ambition.
But he Is not a candidate for the presi
dency and will not 'be."
:o: :o: :o:
At the outside, it Is believed by Luzerne
Republicans who are In a position to know
that Quay will not get more than one dele
gate out of nine In that county; and the
chances are better than even that he
won't get any.

Since Senator Quay declared himself a

The number of delegates already eleried
to the Republican state convention Is 166.
The number yet to be elected Is 114.
COMMENT OF THE PHESS.
The Issue Is Mr. Cameron.
Philadelphia Preset "Senator Quay Is
not In the habit of disguising his opinions.
One of his merits Is the frankness and
freedom of his utterances upon publlo
questions. He has been direct and explicit
on this subject. It Is Is well known that
he has written letters Iff Which he has said
that, tn consequence of the silver move
ment, there is a posslbUlty tf at a Pennsyl
vsnlan may be nominated for the presi
dency, and that bis name Is Cameron.
How? Plainly only. With the support of
Pennsylvania. Through whom? Plainly
only through himself and his effort for
the maintenance of his undisputed control.
These letters, whose existence I absolute
ly - known, leave no doubt of Senator
Quay' thought, sympathy and position.
He Is In the movement with Senator Cam
eron. It Is his sovereign right to stand
where he pleases and favor whom he pre
fers. We do not challenge or question his
prerogative. We seek only to make the
truth plain. He has reasons for his devo
tion to Mr. Cameron which are doubtless
satisfactory to his own mind. That Is a
question for him and not for i us. .But
whether th people shall so with him In
that movement, whether they shall make
him chairman of the stats committee and
put the whole political organisation Into
his hands In order to enable him to carry
It out this la a queetlon for the people
themselves. It Is a matter of personal
friendship, but a supreme Issue ef publle
policy and duty. Are the Republicans of
Pennsylvania willing to make the party
organisation an Instrument to serve Mr.
Cameron and hta purposes T" - . :
AW II II
He ve Tired of Us Telephone Method.
Altoona Tribune) "The appeal ef th
Quay organs to Governor Hastings for
peace' Is absurd. The governor has slm-
. ' "' ...-'. ..
ply reross to sacrifice his manhood, ' He
doe aot propose to share the fate of the
late ex-Governor Hoyt who before be died
declared that the bitterest reflection of
his life was that as chief executive of
this commonwealth he had for a time
weakly surrendered his manhood into the
keeping of a political boss The same
system which fettered Hoyt sought to di
rect Haatlnr. He declined to surrender,
however. And this is his only offense.
The people of this commonwealth have
Anally come to the conclusion to govern
themselves. They have tired of the long
distance telephone method."
II II II
llssriags Is a Msnly Fos.
WUkes-Barrei Record: "The Plttston
Gasette deplores th open manner tn
which Hastings seeks to secure delegate
In Lussrne. How doe United States Sen
ator Quay try to secure tbrtnT Certainly
not In an open manner. That la foreign to
him. Hut by secrecy and stealth, and pri
vate promises of federal patronage In the
dim end dlstunt future he Is endeavoring
to win the hearts of a few machine poll
tUHana. Hastings fight out In the clear
ing. Quay skulks In the underbrush.
That' th difference."
II II It
Quay' Star la Setting.
Lebanon Report: "The anxiety of the
Quay faction to effect a compromise with
their political foia Is a suspiciously sig
nificant token of falnt-heartediiesa. Kor
Quay has never been noted for any par
ticular magnanimity toward his political
foes, and any desire to shift the Issue,
surh a hu has evinced, and to effect a
compromise, savors decidedly of the mag
nanimous or the premonition of defeat,
In fart, the signs of the time are that
Quay' ilur Is at last setting."
II II II
Act More I.Ike Itemocrat.
Haxleton tWntinel: "I Quuy a Itepubll
can? lio elected two Democratic) gov
ernora In twelve years, lln helped to de
fiiut Harrison for president because Harri
son would not be owned by the old tyrant,
lie dufeatud apportionment by the aid of

emtio mayor for PhlliidHphia by nominut
(ng an nobjuctionablu candidate mimed
Penrose. He I supported today by Dem
ocratic papers."
II II II
The Outcome I Certain,
Altoona Tribune: "There is no reason
why there should be uny mystery ubout
the result of the friendly little contest now
In progress In the Republican ranks. Gov
ernor Hastings will preside over the con
velitlon ii nd Chairman OMkeson will be re,
elected. Most of the Judire of the nil
