Now that It Is all over our Democratic
friends are the only ones who seem to
be disajtUtleJ.
Trouble Happily Averted.
When It is considered that the real
margin of difference In strength be
tween the Quay and the Hustings fac
tions at Harrlsburg. prior to the as
semblage of yesterday's convention,
was so small that shrewd observers on
both sides, while outwardly professing
confidence, were at heart In grave
doubt of the outcome, the mutual move
toward a busts of equitable agreement,'
thus obvlutlutr the possibility of two
conventions, was the most creditable
single fact in connection with the en
tire controversy. It Is no doubt a dis
concerting result so far as the Dem
ocrats are concerned, siuce It robs
them of any chance of victory next
November; but unions Republicans of
all Bhadea of factional belief It will be
hailed as a signal vindication, at a
most critical moment, of the reserve
wisdom and foresight of the party's
representatives.
It Is fair to the administration'
friends to say that they had an im
pregnable right and much provoca
tion to staud out for a strict observ
ance of their demands, which in no
way violated precedent or transgressed
- the accepted principles of political
equity. It is also fair to them to say
that in deciding' to yield some points
rather than run the risk of intensifying
the already overstrained tension of
factional feeling, they had in view
solely the party's welfare, to which
they willingly sacrificed all smaller ad
vantages. In this decision they merely
acted in conformity with their previ
ous attitude, which, from the beginning,
has been one "of uniform candor and
fair play; and sought, no point of Ktra
tegic value not Justified by long-established
party usage. Yet the fact that
In the crucial moment of the contest,
all threats of revolution and all men
uces of party disruption came from
other sources, and were simply not met
with counter violence because to de
scend to that plane would work serious.
If not permanent, injury to the party,
does the friends of Governor Hustings
high credit and places the entire party
under direct obligations to tliem.
The unanimous election of Colonel
Quay as state chairman, together with
tne equally cordial nomination by the
convention of the governor's six Judicial
appointees, ends a spirited and at times
dangerous fight upon terms to which
all can assent. It Is not in all respects
the programme we wanted, but the fact
that It was decreed by the convention
makes It from this time forward the
programme of aH loyal Republicans.
Especially gratifying to Lackawanna
county ife tfcj honor newly conferred
Upon Judge Willard, concerning whose
candidacy Irresponsible gossip had for
some days been offensively busy. There
Js no reason why, with all elements
thus harmoniously represented in the
finished work of the convention, the
ticket just named should not be carried
forward io a sweeping ylctory next
November. 1
Secretary Bayard has become an ex
pert golf player since he went to Eng

Niagara la the Harness.
The schemes to harness the great Ni
agara have at last been carried out to
the satisfaction of the most enthusias
tic man of business who can appreciate
no specimen of nature's beauty and
grandeur that to not enclosed In dollars.
The majestic cataract which has for
years swept onward unmolested as
one of the wonders of the world has at
last been temporarily arrested, so to
speak, and made to perform menial ser
vice for grasping4 man. For many
years past Yankee enterprise has gased
. longingly upon thai waste of power, and
many plans were concocted with the
view of utilising the mighty cataract
In a way that would bring wealth to
others beside hotel-keepers and hack
men at the falls. But none of the
schemes were practical. .
The introduction of electricity as a
power for running machinery, however,
has made the harnessing of .Niagara
possible. After an expenditure of sev
eral million of dollars,! the' great dyna
mos have been put In operation and the
treat cataract furnishes. -the power.
Bleotrie power Is sow applied to vari
ous manufacturing enterprises at Niag
ara Falls, and In due time it will be
transmitted to other cities. The possi
bilities of the development of the po
tential energy in the Immense waterfall
are but faintly appreciated as yet It
Is not outside the range of probability
to predict that canal boats will be
propelled the whole length of the Erie
canal by electricity generated by the
falls. For untold ceuturles Niagara
poured Its tumbling waters with waste
ful energy waiting for some genius to
utilise the mighty power. Niagara
Falls Is now In harness, and while de
lighting the eye with the grandeur of
Its sublime spectacle, the great cataract
will also contribute to the comfort and
convenience of mankind.
The Cuban revolution has already
cost Spain t20.000.000. Spain would dis
play better Judgment If she would pur
chase her sugar and molasses at retail
and let Cuba conduct the plantation
alone.
The Party's Verdict.
The supreme tribunal of Pennsylva
nia Republicanism having elected to
continue Senator Quay In power, there
is left to those who voted and worked
against such a result the consciousness
of having conducted a straightforward,
manly battle, which though temporarily
unsuccessful. Is by no means lost.
While superficial observation may In
cline to the belief that Mr. Quay and
his methods are by yesterday's verdict
perpetuated li this state, we believe
that wiser scrutiny will discover a dif
ferent situation. It will discern In the
recent revolt the vivid evidence of an
Inevitable revolution, which may, by
devious artifices, be postponed for a
time, but which sooner or later will or
dain in this commonwealth a new order
of things. It will not be deceived by
the Quay autocracy's momentary noisy
exultation Into a misapprehension of
the fact that the temper of the party
r.mk-nnd-iflle Is becoming unsnlfed to
the sustained endurance of one-man
dictation, and that unless party leader
ship shall respect public opinion and
have regard for the publio Interest, it
will ride In time to a certain fall.
If Senator Quay is the shrewd poli
tician that he Is, represented to be, he
will take due cognizance of this condi
tion and Incline toward moderation.
The narrowness of his escape does not
suggest new hazards; It rather points
to the need of Immediate caution and
conciliation. The recent revolt against
fc'.m was not personal In Its origin; It
was aimed at a system whose prolonga
tion Is Inconsistent with healthy party
progress, and fatal to official self-respect.
That system must change,
though the man who created It shall for
a time remain. It rests with the sena
tor himself, accordingly as he shall per
sist In or yield to this Inexorable de
mand, to fix the term of his own tenure
of command.
Street cars equipped with fenders of
different design have been among the
pleasing sights upon our thoroughfares
during the past few days. The fenders
are at present on trial and It Is under
stood that the company proposes to
adopt the appliance that merits the
approval of the councils. This evi
dence of a desire on part of the com
pany for Improvements speaks well
for the new management, and seems
to Indicate that better service may be
expected all along the line in the near
future.
Wheat of the World.
The United States have received
credit for the production of 400,017,000
bushels of the world's, wheat supply by
the rtudapest statlKtlcans whose esti
mates have been recently published.
The . Hungarian estimate of the
American wheat crop for 1894 was 408,
000,000 bushels; and In making compari
sons this season the Budapest crop ex
perts have used these erroneous figures,
disregarding the fact that the Federal
department of agriculture has-declared
that the production of wheat In this
country last year was 460,000.000
bushels, i There Is a widely prevalent
belief that even this latter was an
underestimate. Both of these Euro
pean crop computers agree In the state
ment that Great Britain and France
will have a much smaller yield of
wheat than In 1894; and the inference
Is fair that the Import requirements
of these countries will be materially
Increased. " .' ' '
In consequence of the decrease In
the production of wheat In countries
like India, Argentina and Australia,
the demand for American grain this
year, should b In excess of that of sev
eral years past. The hopefulness of
the situation Is somewhat modified by
additional statements from these ex
perts to the effect that there has been
an Increase of C2.000.000 In Russia's
wheat crop this season. The apparent
unreliability of the reports from the
Hungarian experts make It somewhat
difficult for one to form an estimate
safe to .bank upon, fit 111, viewed from
all points, It would seem that there
must be a greater demand for Ameri
can wheat during the coming year, and
that this country will be perceptibly
benefitted by the Increase In grain ex
ports. '
San Francisco has taken on a boom
in the discovery of) new and apparently
exhaustlesS oil fields at Los Angeles.
The oil 4s to be piped to San Pedro,
from which port It wJU be carried to
San Francisco by tank steamers and
laid down there at $1.70 per barrel.
This Is about one-quarter the cost of
the fuel now used by manufacturers
there. It IS expected to give a boom to
manufacturing, and make flan Fran
clsco to the Pacific what New York Is to
the Atlantic, the permanent center of
commerce. ,
Mr. Quay, although for the time a
victor, has probably learned that there
Is a difference between leadership and
dictation; and that the latter role Is
a trifle too warm for comfort '
We have met the temporary enemy
and to a limited degree and for a lim
ited time we feel obliged to say that
we are tapir's. '
Sober and " conservative popular
opinion ha again proved the victor
over passion and prejudice. . ,

COMMENT OF THE PRESS.
A Gloomy Prediction.
Philadelphia Record; "The compulsory
school luwpHHsed by the recent l-K'Slnlure
Is likely to prove a dlmnul failure. There
will probably be an examination and regis
tration of school uh'.lilren by the aoses
sors, wlho will get additional pay for their
additional labor; but beyond this the law
Is likely to full dead. No concerted move
Uuut biMi 'made to provide aililttlunul
school room hi localities where facilities
arc lucklmt. In many of the counties of
the state the expenmi to be incurred is so
heavy in attempting to curry out the re
quirements of the law that school direc
tors and county commissioners prefer to
run the risk of neglect rather than tuke
the responsibility of compliance."

THE INCREASE OF CRIME.
From the Washington Post. ;
The Providence Journal thinks tt Is un
doubtedly true that crimes of violonce are
on the Increase in. this country, whatever
the reason may be, and that they consti
tute a Krave reproach to our civilisation,
Justifying, at least In part, the wifuvor
u ble comments of Kuropean observers. The
Journal says there were nearly 10.UUU
homicides here last year, while in the
whole United Kingdom there were less
than 5U0, and adds, by way of comment:
"This Is a startling discrepency, showing
a disregard for the sanclty of human life
which is appalling. Probably the chief
reason for the number of murders inter
national and other Is the barbarous .prac
tice of carrying concealed weapons, which
the law in many parts of the country does
not deal with severely enough; while a
contributory cause may be a decreasing
respect for all law as an instrument of
punishment, seeing how eaasily It may be
evaded, and how, by ingenious legal
methods, punishment when It is awarded
may be postponed or averted.
Various causes, besides those mentioned
by our Providence contemporary, con
tributed to this startling discrepency be
tween the homicide statistics of thellnited
States und those of the United Kingdom.
Ours is a new country as compared with
Oreat Rritaln and Ireland, and Its hetero
geneous population! la being constantly
Increased by the immigration of large
masses of the Ignorant und the vicious
from the most Immoral parts of Kumpe.
Of course, we cheerfully concede that other
parts of Kurope supply us with a strentn
of Immigration that is not objectionable,
but that fact does not diminish the num
ber of homicides due to the Influx of bru
tality and depravity. The Indian terri
tory and other parts of the West that have
recently been opened up to setttlement,
are extremely proline of murderous vio
lence. This is a temporary evil Incident
to the newness of tho country. The dth
orgunlsatlon of society that was an un
avoidable result of emancipation hns been
the cause of much crime. A great good
Is seldom accomplished without producing
evil. So great and radical a c nan re as
was effected by the Instantaneous trans
formation of millions of slaves Into freo
dom and follow-cltlaens was never made
In any country without producing social
cmuMlnna Inimical to peace and order.
This, too, Is a temporary condition. The
emancipated race Is making good pro
rrem In education, and the relations of
the white and black races to each other
are steadily Improving.
Unquestionably the practice of parrying;
coTvoealxd weapons Is responsible for
many violent deaths, and the same Is true
of the practice of keeping pistols In resi
dences where they can bt handled by
womn and children. Where one burglar
la shot, fifty ttnocnt (einons are slain
by pistols kept for tho protection of pri
vate houses. Husbands shoot their wives,
wives xhoot their husbands, and both
shoot their sons or daughters under the
Impression, In all these cases, that they
are putting lead Into burglars. Hut we
have llttto doubt that the greatest of n.ll
the contributors to ournnpnlllngaggreKntn
of homicides Is "the decreasing respoct
for all. law aa an Instrument of punish
ment, seeing how easily It may he
evaded, and how, by Ingenious legal meth
ods, punishment when It is awarded, may
be postponed or averted." For this In
mentable lameness and general Ineffi
ciency and criminal Jurisprudence the lersl
profession Is largely responsible. The
laws are framed by members of that pro
fession am) only men "learned tn. the
law," are supposed to occupy judicial po
sitions.. But behind the lawyers and thnlr
responsibility stands the Knnple and their
obligation to themselves. When the peoplo
shall have had all they will take In the
way of fooling with Justice we may ex
pect a reform. Republican institutions
have a wonderful capacity for self-preservation,

GIVE CUBA HER FREEDOM.
From the Commercial-Advertiser.
The United tftatea is the premier nation
of the Western Hemisphere, and the fore
moat Republic of the world. Founded on
the eternal doctrine of muctiood sov
ereignty and based upou the divine right
of the people to rule, American institu
tions are irreconcilably antagonistic to
any form of despotism. Yut inrough some
strange misconception of the fundamental
principle of Americanism, some extra
ordinary mlsunderstumltng of the rights
and duties of the American government,
the Clevelund administration has of late
pursued a course whose eftect has been to
strengthen and sustain one of the most
odious, ruinous und cruel forma of tyr
anny in existence anywhere the tyranny
of the Itourbon monarchy of Spain over
the people of Cuba.
Bo longas there wan reason to believe the
fipunish statements that the revolt in that
unhappy islund was merely a local out
break, which- would shortly be put down
without generul disturbance or Injury to
trade, the United fitutes was Justified In
preserving a rigid neutrality. It Is now
evident, however, and it tuts been evident
for some weeks, that the otllelal declara
tions from Madrid and Havana on the
subject were deliberate falsehoods. The
Insurrection Is not local. It extends
throughout all Cuba. It is not the pro
duct of personal nmbltioii or petty dls
satlsfactlont but the uprising of a brave
people determined to achieve freedom.
Sixty thousand Spanish troups, a vast cor
ruption fund of Spanish gold, and nearly
the whole effective force of the Spanish
navy have been nllke ineffective In sup
prssing the revolution. It has gained In
strength constantly, and Captnln Gen
eral Campos himself admits that he Is
utterly utittblu to reconquer Cuba with the
force at his command.
Under these circumstances the duty of
the United Htalofl is plain. We have
gone to the utmost limit of International
forbearance in acting a friendly part
toward a decaying anil distant monarchy,
with whom we have nothing In common,
whose Interests are opposed tn ours ami
whose ollii'ials have repeatedly asailed
our flag and trampled upon the rlchts of
our cltlsens. We should now protect our
own interests and upheld the cause of
civil liberty In the New World by formally
according to tho Cuban insurgents the
belligerent status which they have cour
ageously won. This course would have
been amply Justifiable at any time during
the past six weeks. It Is now imperative
If the United States is to prove true to
the principles 0f Americanism and true
to Its mission as the guardian of American
freedom nnd progress. There is no doubt
as to where the American people stand in
this matter. Their sympathy has been
with th Cubnns from the first, nnd all
the vigilance of Federal olllclals hns been
necessary to prevent that sympathy from
takl'rig the form of nctive assistance. Tho
government nt Washington should re
spond to the proosure of public sentiment.
