In compliance with a resolution uilopieu by the Republican county commute at a nipetinK held ut Central Kcjmbllcnii club rooms on Tuesday, Ann. Republican of Lackawanna county will assemble in convention at Music Hall, Meranton. Pa.. Tuesday, Sept. 17.

' EZRA H. RIPPLE. Chairman. W. S. MILLAR, Secretary. Attention Is directed to the changing of the place of today's Republican county contention from the court house, which will be otherwise occu pied, to Music hall. If there Is any thing In a name the change ought to be conducive to harmony. Support the Whole Ticket. The esteemed Philadelphia Press of yesterday eald: It has been proposed in Lackawanna and Luzerne we regret to say from a Re publican Bouree that the Republican voters in thole counties shall vote for ex Judife Smith, who is on the Democratic ticket, as well an forjudges Rice anil Wil lurd. The reason Klven for this Is that It may gain for that section three of tho seven Superior court Judsies. Such a movement aa that would be dangerous In the extreme. In order to cast a ballot fur any Democratic candidate a Republican would be compelled to cut one of the can didates on his own party ticket. No citi zen can vote for more than six, though seven aro to be elected. Which one of the Republican candidates would the Repub licans of Luzerne and Lackawanna want to drop in order to gel In a vote for ex Judjfe Smith, or would they be expected to blindly drop any of them, merely beintf certain that they voted for WillaiJ, Rice and Smith? Let those who have proposed this scheme stop and reflect to what it might lead. In the first place, If other Republican nominees are to be sacrlllced in the counties of Willard and Rice to help a Democrat on merely local grounds, what assurance could there be that the particular friends of the sacrificed candi date would nrt retaliate? And, if no particular cand;date were posted for this sacrifice there would be four of them, each to feel that he was being made the victim of a nelllsh purpose in those two counties to elect three-sevenths of all the judges. Could there be any assurance that the vote for Rice and Willard would not he reduced In other sections? K,"pub licans all over the .state can best serve Themselves and the public Interests by fidelity to all of the- Republican nomi nees, leaving the cut-throat business to the esteemed enemy, who will have enough of It to do. Our contemporary Is assured that the proposition It criticises Is In no sense a suggestion of either of the Republican candidates In this section. It was purely a personal opinion, for which the contributor of It was and Is alone responsible. So far as The Tribune Is concerned, It heartily agrees with tho Press that any cutting of the Kepubll can ticket out of compliment to a local opponent would be both Impolitic and unfair. Tlje six 'Republican judicial candidates were appointed by a Re publican governor, unanimously re nominated by a stormy Republican convention, and each one of them Is pd titled to the support of eVery Re publican voter. To give less than a full support to the party ticket would be unfair, not only to Governor Hast ings, who appointed six of the seven candidates on that ticket, and to Sena tor Quay, who 'Is In a sense responsible for the preservation of a normal party majority, "but likewise to Candidates Slice and 'Willard, themselves, who, al though In no sense responsible, would naturally be regarded by some persons as lacking In loyalty to their associates on the ticket If any of their Republican neighbors should cut a colleague's name In behalf of a Democrat. The Tribune, which first gave cur rency to the suggestion in the guise of a communication from a reader, must not be held responsible for that read er's views. While this paper Is always glad to hear from those who have aught of legitimate interest to say to the public, It distinctly disclaims any share In the opinions thus volunteered, and refers all who wish to know its own 'beliefs to Its editorial columns. The Lebanon. Seport thinks the York convention was 1 "enthusiastic without an object." But come to think of It the Democratic party In Pennsylvania scarcely la worth calling an "object." Our Duty Toward Cuba. The Ojilcago Times-Herald forcibly states the whole case in paragraph when. It says: "For the United States at this time merely to accord 'belliger ent rights' to Cuba Is the least which a decent respect forthe memory j of the fathers of our own nationality and freedom, and for the memory of thoso who then lent; without atirrt or higgling technicalities, their . timely sympathy, should think of doing.. But all the technicalities even of International law and usage arc on .the side, of the ao- knowledgment of such rights. It la war that Is going on In Cuba, and ter rible war at that. It Is a war which, so far aa other countries ere concerned, should be invested with all possible safeguards of civilized warfare. And If the United States is to put the odds of advantage against either party it ought not to be agalrmt the party that is struggling for release from the wortt form of oppression now existing this side the subjects of Turkish misrule.' There are rumors that President Cleveland is Inclined to inaugurate a vigorous policy of friendliness for tho Cuban belligerents. The rumor Is al most Incredible, In view of the presi dent's recent treatment of Hawaii; but if It should prove true, he will have a united nation at his back. The Amer lean people have no use for tyranny In any form, and they are particularly opposed to It when, as In 'Spain's abuse) of Cuba, It takes the form of bullying as well as stealing. There could be no better news from Washington than that the president had decided to give the Cuban revolutionists their clearly demonstrated diplomatic rights. Hy a vole of 24 to 203 the Allegheny county Republican committee has de clined to adopt the Crawford county plan of nominating candidates directly nt 'the primaries. The Innovation was proposed by A. 11. Howand, a promi nent Quay loader, and opposed by C. L. iMagee. iKvMuirllyMugee Is still a live corpse In his own bailiwick. An Inhuman Pavement. A recent number of the Knginecrlng Record contained a discussion of san itary pavements which might well have been written with Scranton's rotten wooden block abominations directly in mind. "The fact has long been known among sanitary vnginecrs," It says, "that street washings are no Improve ment in character over ordinary sew age, and occasionally the latter liquid muy have the advantage. Single- block pavements, ns ordinarily laid, are full of openings between the blocks, which persistently hold dirt saturated with the foul liquids of the street, and under tho action of tho sun the most un wholesome vapors are constantly being discharged Into the atmosphere. How ever well laid nuch pavements may be, these unsanitary conditions are constantly being created with more or less activity; good work will only to a small extent remedy the evil. The continuation of these circumstances year after year extends the foul satur ation to the earth under the pavement and Intensities the polluting effects of the whole mass on the atmosphere. It Is not a matter of wonder, then, that the grip, pneumonia, and other diseases of a similar character produce such ravages In large cities. Nor can there be any change in results until there Is a change In the conditions from which these unhealthy influences ema nate, and that change can most easily. If not only, be brought about by an Im pervious pavement kept clean." This condemnation has all the more emphasis In view of the fact that.it had Immediate reference to single block stone or brick pavements such as are common In New York. Could the Engineering Record have realized that In any American city of conse quence which claimed to be progres sive there would, ut this late day, be suen In central business streets such a horrible spectacle of undisguised nith and nastiness as stares up at one along Spruce street, between I'enn and Wyo ming, it would no doubt have been beggared and bankrupted of Its stock of denunciatory adjectives. Here Is a thoroughfare in the very heart of our city that stinks like a slaughter house and looks like a swine's wallowing ground, and yet it Is tolerated from month to month and from year to year because nobody seems to have suf ficient pride In the city's appearance to move for Its correction. When the new Jermyn hotel shall have been completed, will guests have to be ferried across Spruce street In rainy weather or disinfected after bat tling with Its slop and mire? The Philadelphia Record seems to think that the York Republican league convention should have grabbed Chauncey Jilack by the back of the neck, assaulted him and kicked him out, all because he Is a Democrat. The Record Is assured that Republicans have broader ideas of courtesy and tolerance. (Jrover and a Third Term. Eleven reasons are given by the Democratic Waterloo, N. Y., Observer why a president should not be elected three times. They are as follows: First It Is Ih viola tli.ri nt Iho ,..,..,'.... law of the lund. Second It gives a tre mendous lever of power, both civil and military, 'for an unwnrthv nn,i,f, scrupulous president to force h'.s nomi nation, nnd thereby destroy the strength nnd reputation of his party. Third If elected for a third term, which might be accomplished by an unexpected tidal uvu, or an unioriunnte nomination hy the opposite tmrtv: nr hv ft-uiid if urni,i I a long strldo toward a despotic mon archy, l-'otirth It deprives the states and the citizens of the rotation In office, to which they are Justly entitled. In the Inter est of fair play, Justlco and honest recog. iimiin oi me r:gm or aspirants. Fifth it sets at defiance the pxumnle nml tench. lngs of Washlnxton. Sixth It caters to an unholy and dangerous ambition. Sev enth It creatps a favored class of office-holders who can defy any constitu ency, and hold their Places throuith nb. Jcct subserviency to the wishes of their master. r;:gntn it creates a centralized despotism, and one-man power, contrary to constitutional liberty. Ninth It gives limine prominence to one Individual, mag nifying him beyond his deserts, contrary to the spirit of American citizenship nnil the equality of opportunity for promotion granted to all. Tenth It enables tho president, by such continuance In power, to shape the acts of congress, pack the supreme court of the (Tnlted States, and by promises of reward nnd threats of dis approval, Ho tear down the splendid struc ture or representative government that the fathers founded. Eleventh It is dan gerous, despotic, destructive and diabol ical, and no man who has been favored with two terms should be so selfish, un patriotic, unmindful or his obligations, nnd lost to the sense of pronriety ns to Imagine In his vain-glory, nelf-esteem and pomposity that because the people made n".m tneir nonored servant ror a season. mat tney win tolerate mm as a master. Our Waterloo contemporary neglects to make proper allowance for the sov ereign qualification of "consecration," when possessed by a fat president like Mr. Cleveland. Doesn't the Observer perceive, with Ambassador Bayard, that the American people need a "strong man to govern them" that, In fact, they literally depend for success as. a nation upon the generosity of the prophet of Gray Oables In consenting; to re-occupy the presidential chair? We are surprised at Its-oversight of this palpable truth. Why, every cuckoo can see that with tooth eyes shut. Under a law passed at the recent ses sion of the legislature Judges and In spectors of election will hereafter re ceive $3.50 and clerks $3 for each elec tion, regardless of the time spent In counting the vote. The Judges also get U and mileage for carrying the re turns to the county seat. It is expect cJi that this Increased compensation will insure prompter and better service. It ought to, at any rate, for under the old system there was large room for im provement Senator Fllnn, who is chairman of the Pittsburg city committee, predicts 15, 000 plurality for the Republican ticket this fall, without including the county at large. If IMttsburg does that, the party throughout the state will be satisfied. The Philadelphia Uulletln appears to believe, with singular logic, that the United States ought not to help Cuba until Cuba shall cease to need help. On the contrary, "a friend In need Is a friend indeed." We trust that the Philadelphia Times will not charge the smallness of exist ing school accommodations to the com pulsory education law. That law doesn't cause It; it only reveals it. . One good thing about the Atlanta exposition, which opens tomorrow, Is that Its projectors do not expect to make money. This will Insure a pleas ant lack of "leg-pulling." - -- William T. Stead, the English Jour nalist, wants all the English colonics to help us celebrate the Fourth of July. Its lessons, would certainly do all of them good. Major Handy thinks the Democrats will nominate Morrison. Morrison Is a good man, but Republicans would have to give even him a horizontal reduc tion. Ex-Speaker Crisp aays his party can win next ymr with "some good man." Does this refer to one Charles F. Crisp? A national (Republican convention held at about 'tills time next year would fill the bill and pick a winner. Dun raven has the best of the argu ment and the worst, of Uie sailing. COMMENT OF THE PRESS, A Uood Republican Omen. rittsburg Times: "The state conven tion of Republican dubs was Just what It ouh'ht to be to be a prophet of Repub lican victory. Hy Republican victory in Pennsylvania Is meant more than merely electing the ticket. We havo set the standard hinh. and we must elect it by a majority which will send u thi',11 of en couragement through the 1 nifty the coun try over, as did the majorities fur Hast ings and for Cirow. The Kepuldican clubs can greatly help to do this. They havo inude a good beginning at York. The at tendance was larger, more representative, from a larger number of clubs and a wider area of the state, than ever be fore. The spirit of the gathering could not have been 'better. There was no bick ering or contention, no rival candidacies even, which makes the exceptional at tendance more remarkable. Taking It al together, the York convention ought to ease the nerves of the party scare-crows who made their own shadows tremble all summer with predictions of the ruin In which the recent contest which culmin ated at Harrisburg was u.bout to bury the party. The Republican parly In Pennsyl vania will take a heap of burying." CorrceHng Dr. Parkhurst. Rochester Post-Express: "Dr. Park hurst, the metropolitan reformer. Is rep resented as gaylng In regard to the excise law: 'I want to see the now legislature enact a law referring tho matter to the arbitrament of the people In their severnl localities. The principle of home rule, for which we stand, requires that New York city, for Instance, shall decide the matter in all its details; not simply whether we shall have open saloons on Sunday, but the question generally of sa loon administration.' Why, then, should It not be left for the people of New York to determine whether the shops shall be open for their convenience on Sunday, and wnetner me courts, snail oe open so that poor litigants may not lose working time In attending them? And why should the citizen, with a Stmdiiy on his hands nnd business to transact, be shut out from city offices? Why does Mr. Park hurst advocate special Sunday facilities for the saloons?" Characteristic Enterprise. ilkcs-Iiarre Times: "Tho manage ment of the Scranton Tribune evidences Its characteristic progressiveness In Its presentation of a silver cup for competi tion In a series of ball games between the clubs of this city and Scranton." Why Plntt Succeeds. Rochester Post-Express: "One reason for I'latt's success Is that he never takes a vacation. Another Is that he makes politics his express business." A Pair of Victors. Chicago Dispatch: "Mr. I'latt, of Niw York, sends greetings to iMr. Quay, of Pennsylvania, with assurances of most distinguished consideration." Likewise Trtio of Scranton's. Chlcngo Dispatch: "The Chicago base ball team for next year should be strengthened by the addition of nine players." Another Itad Omon, Chicago Dispatch: "President Cleve land will notice that the Valkyrie HI Is another third term failure." THE PERPETUAL WOOING.

Howard, In Times-Herald, i ' -- Jay Gould once sadd to me on the stage of Daly's theater ufter a performance: "Capital Is king; without it nothing can be done." I thought of this today In con nection with Journalism, noting the dif ference in conditions existing now, when handrails of thousands of dollars are needed for the purchase of a plant, and those which existed when Rennet t started the Herald, writing editorials and news matter on a plank stretched across bar rels In a cellar, himself putting up the type, himself working the nana press, himself the carrier and newsboy upon the street, literally; when Greeley, with tl.uuo borrowed money, began punncaiion or tne Tribune; when Jacob t'hl and his brawny, brainy wife, subsequently Mrs. Oswald Otter.lorfer, set the type, worked oft the edition and sold the Staats Zeltung ucwi- naixTB to dealers, the eooU woman bank' Ing in her handkerchief, on which sho drew when purchasing paier, Ink and news.
