Election day, Nov. 5.
Boss Gorman's Maryland spell-bind
ors have one never-falling reply to
criticisms of Gorman and hln methods
It is that the election of the Republi
can ticket would mean the recognition
of the negro vote. If Gorman wins, he
can thank race prejudice.
Change the Basis of Representation
e must confess that we can see
nothing but injustice in a basis of rop
resentatlon which throws the balance
of power at Republican national con
ventlons into the hands of degelates
from states that never return Republi
can pluralities. It matters little, so far
as the fundamental principle Is con'
cerned, whether the Southern delega'
tlons are or are not at the command of
the highest bidder; though they were
as incorruptible as Caesar's wife, it
would still be unfair to give to the
few score Republicans whose votes In
the South have no practical effect equal
representation to that accorded the
stalwart, majority-casting Republican
staiteg of the North. It would be unfair
as a matter of principle. It would be un
fair as a matter of politics.
There Is no good reason why the
basis of representation which Is ob
served at Pennsylvania Republican
conventions should not be established
as the rule of the national body. In
this state representation Is based on
the Republican vote cast at the last
preceding general or state election. The
result of such a rule Is that the Demo
cratic counties do not dictate as to
whom Republicans shall nominate; but
nominations are decided In accordance
with the Judgment of those counties
which, on election day, are expected
to furnsh the necessary majorities. A
resolution to apply this salutary rule to
the national conventions was Intro
duced at Minneapolis, and is now be
fore the National committee for Its
consideration. Justice clearly demands
that it be adopted.
Bank Examiner Plummer, of Ten
nessee, has Just been removed by Pres
ident Cleveland for saying that the
federal treasury Is virtually In the
hands of foreign receivers, who are
manipulating the finances of this
country to suit themselves. Evidently
the truth pricks.
The Truth About Cuba.
Snator Call, of Florida, is one
statesman of the Democratic persua
sion who Is by no. means deceived at
this administration's thin pretense
that American recognition of 'the Cuban
revolution would be Inconsistent with
International duty. "The truth Is," says
Senator Call, "that the United States,
as matters now stand, are Spain's
mainstay in this business. "We are car
rying the big end of the stlc. The
soldiers that 'Spain has poured Into
Cuba have done nothing. Her ship
patrol of the island coast comes In for
but small notice. But the widest ad
vertisement Is made of the rigid atti
tude of this government respecting the
observance of the neutrality laws, and
has the double purpose of serving
Spain and crippling the Cubans. Sever
the relations between the United States
and Spain, which really make of us her
active and all-powerful ally, and Cuban
Independence would be an accom
plished fact In a .very.short time. Fifty
thousand men,. Including some of the
brightest and most ambitious Jn tho
(and, would leave, these shores at once
to Join the Cuban army; ships would be
purchased and equipped for service and
Spain would have to yield. This would
follow the recognition of the Cubans as
belligerents.' This spirit Is abroad, the
money at ham). But as the case stands
we are holding back Cuba's eager
friends, while Spain perfects ' arrange
ments designed to make her grip on the
Island tighter than ever.
"Here Is an Island very near our
shores. We may reach it after a shdrt
sail In a little fishing smack. Spain s
far away. The people on the island
care Infinitely more fdr us than they
do for' the Spaniards. They copy us.
They trade with us. They complain
of Spain. They charge that she op
presses them; keeps them back In the
race of progress. They turn to.ua and
remind us that we were once ourselves
In almllar situation. What is the re
mit) Our people sympathise with ths
Cubans and desire to help them, but
Spain cries out: 'Hands off. Cuba Is
mine. I'll do with her as I please.
It's none of your affair. I keep the
peace with you. and that's sufficient for
you.' Now, I object to that. It Is our
affair. Spain, simply because of long'
established and long-recognized au
thority, has no right to oppress people
anxious for freedom, worthy of free
dom and seeking to govern themselves.
They are our next door neighbors, and
are appealing to us In their distress,
and I think we we, of all peopl
ought to help them. At least we ought
to leave our own people free to manifest
their feelings In the matter."
This is the view of nine-tenths of the
American people, spoken concisely and
to the point. Those who cry "keep
hands off" forget that as the case
stands, this government's hands are
already on. They ore on the neck and
around the throat of every would-be
American helper of the Cuban patriots;
they are squeezing Spain's hand In
murked partiality for an open espousal
of the cause of tyranny and oppression
they are lifted against government by
the governed, and In favor of gross
taxation without duo representation.
If Uncle Sam's hands were off this
business, there could not be so much
popular objection. Indifference to the
struggles of a small neighbor for the
freedom we already enjoy would be
Justifiable in law. If not In morals.
Hut' as the facts point, we are not now
Indifferent; we are doing Spain's dirty
work and helping Spain pull its fat
chestnuts out of the fire; nnd that Is
why the unofficial sentiment of the
liberty-loving plain people of this
country Is becoming extremely tired.
"Warner Miller's modest 'Sunday ob
servanee plank was a llttle-rtiougli rec
ognition of a cardinal principle of good
government.
Regulate the Height of Buildings.
The question of fixing some limit to
the permissible height of buildings Is
one destined to ai'lso in most cities, our
own among the nunvber. It Is oppor
tunely painted out by a writer In tho
St. Louis Globe-tDemocrat that the pub-
tic health may in time depend upon
such legislation. Artificial light, of any
kind, this contributor says, Is Injurious,
not only to the eyes, but to other or
gans of the body. This results partly
from the Increased heat thrown oft
by the artificial light, nnd partly from
the absence of sunlight. Bacterlolog
lsts And that direct sunlight is the
most deadly enemy which germs en
counter. Millions of bacteria, which
might otherwise reach the human sys'
tern and set up diphtheria, typhoid
fever, scarlet fever and other cotagious
diseases, are killed by a short exposure
to the direct rays of the sun.
The city of Glasgow, Scotland, ac
cording to this writer, has a law pro
hibiting the erection of any building
which is higher than the width of the
street on which 'it abuts. If the build
ing be set back from the street line
the distance it has been set back is
added to the width of the street In
determining the height of the building.
Where the 'buildings face a public
square In which the clear space is
above eighty feet, there is no limit to
the height Imposed. In Marseilles,
France, buildings In streets thirty-nine
feet or more wide are limited to a
height of seventy-seven feet; on streets
less than twenty-five feet wide tho
height must not exceed sixty-five feet,
In Rouen, France, the limit is sixty.
five feet on streets thirty-nine feet wide
or more, while 'Kngnsn cities uo not
theoretically limit the height of build
ings, they do so practically by pre
scribing the thickness of walls nec
cessary for each ten feet In height.
It will probably be several years be
fore the sky-scraper will be a menace
to health in Scranton; at the same
time, while regulating the kind and
quality of buildings, It Is now none
too early to begin to think about their
height. That the local tendency Is
toward higher structures does not need
demonstration. 'Scarcely Is the frame
work of the ten-story Mears building
n place before there Is talk of a twelve-
story structure; and when that is built,
the demand! will toe for even taller piles.
This has been true in other cities, and
fhere Is no cause to believe that ,lt
will' not prove true here. Some day,
the limit of safety Will be exceeded,
unless legal action In advance shall
determine the proper limit and see that
It Is not Ignored.
When speaking of "business "picking
up, don t forget who throw it down.
The Immunities of Diplomats.
A point of real Interest seems likely
to be raised by the Venezuelan minis
ter o tihls country In connection with
the recent arrest 1n New York city of an
attache of the Venezuelan legation,
who .rejoices In the stately name of
Senor Don Alberto Fonrbona. Don Al
berto, according to current reports,
when discovered by the vigilant
Gotham: poMce and "taken in," was In
tihait mellow and amiable mood whiloh
causes men of fluent affections to plane!
upon the street corner ond proffer to
embrace passers by, particularly the
ladlet). In the course of his Indiscrim
inate warmth of heart It appears thait
the don pursued one fair lady nut
wisely buit too far, and was therefor In
continently ibumlled off to the cala
boose, where 4he cadi levied upon Ms
purse to .the extent of 3 and costs.
Thus far our little romance follows
conventional lines. But the threat
ened climax is altogether novel. Plead
ing the Immunity of diplomatic agents
from Interference while In "the dis
charge of their dutltes, which Is a princi
ple thoroughly established in interna
tional law and recognized .by all en
lightened naitlons, Don Alberto's su
perior, the minister, Senor Don Jose An
drade, proposes, it Is said, to en ter com
plaint against the municipal authori
ties of New York city for the affront put
on the Venezuelan dignity; and If sat
isfaction be not forthcoming from that
quarter, tie will, we are told, demand
It of congress. Just what form of sat
isfaction Don Jose would regard as sat
isfactory deponent falleth to specify;
but presumably Ws . wounded honor
would be appeased by a liberal 'balm of
cash.
The Washington Post, to which we
are Indebted (or the foregoing facts, re
gard the warlike albtatude of Senor
Don Jose Andrade as a matter of sum
clent consequence to Justify serious ex
postulatton. If pleads with eloquence
and pathos tor the right of Americans
to protect (themselves from the errant
passions and vagrant Inspirations of
diplomatic abtaeth.es who "do the town;"
and even recites, for Don Jose's benefit,
a passage from a letter toy Secretary of
State Hamilton Fltlh wherein the prln
clple was many years ago proclaimed
that the Immunity enjoyed 'by diplo
matic agents does not extend to the
proportions of a general license to vio
late all forms of taw. The (Post's able
effort to pacify the situation is Inter
estlng and Instructive, but It strikes us,
also superfluous. The Venezuelan min
ister can hardly 'be serious In claiming
for the young men on his staff the right
to act with Impunity as common row
dies, under exemption from the proper
penalties of law. Such a proposition
would be preposterous. Better no Vene
zuelan legation ait all than one used
as an asylum for toughs.
The experiment made by Joihn R. Mc
Lean of trying to create a clientage of
respectable readers for a iNew York
newspaper that has been. In times past
characterized 1n a colliHjulal way as
"The Servant Cilrl's Own," has cost him
four months of hard work and $250,000
amd it has failed. The attempt was
brave. Nothing was spared to woo sue
cess. 'Hut success fbaflled pursuit. The
truth Is that Now York ihus too many
dally papers. If it could be adjusted
so that the money annually wvistod on
needless competition would go into the
colters of Gotham's three or four flrst
tilass papers, thus enabling them to be
come truly Independent, the result
would be highly 'beneficial. Besides,
tho forcing of ia paper's growth by
questionable methods is an evil to the
public and a disgrace to the newspaper
vocation.
It has taken some persons a genera
tlon to learn that good, strong, Ameri
can blood, whether flowing In the
North or In the South, Is a precious
deal thicker than artificial prejudice.

No wonder knaves deplore the liberty

The defeat of reapportionment In this
state was a mistake; but It needs to be
remembered that It was a mistake In
which the Democrats supplied the
necessary votes.
With due respect to Piatt, Gorman,
lirice, et. al., Senator Quay is the only
man of 'em who combines dexterity and
adroitness with courage, nerve and
brains.
We Americans who think Mexico ilsn't
much of a republic will feel cheap
when IMexico snts us the wise example
of recognizing the Cuban belligerents.
We advise .Mr. Cleveland not to con
slder Tom Reed's feelings In the mat
ter of an extra session. Rest assured
that Heed will take care of himself.
Dunraven denies that he got Iselln's
letter offering to sail the races over
again. Well, now that he knows of the
offer, what will he do with It?
The citizen who, in these days of re'
uniting veteran opponents, doesn't feel
at times like making the eagle scream
should consult a physician.
The merchant or mechanic who wants
to know what Democratic government
has done for him only needs to consult
his cash book and ledger.
The way Campos demolishes Cubans
In the telegraph offices Is oddly at va
rlance with his frantic cry for re-en
forcements.
Democracy might go farther and
fare worse than to nominate that same
Bowler, lie would be an improvement
on Cleveland.
The chief requisites of theatrical suc
cess seem at times to be animalism and
color; but perhaps brains will yetstvln.
Republicans have no objection to Mr.
Cleveland for seeking a third term. If
he can get it he will be welcome.

COMMENT OF THE FKESS.
Tho Hoot of the Kvll.
Tunkhannoik New Akh: "The nroblem
of freeing the electloiiu from tho hand of
Hie ueiiiuuogueH unci ullowlnu Ilium to be
come un expression of the will of the peo
ple Is being much iCacussuil of lute. The
proposition of Jiiilxe Hlewart to inuku
voting ul the primaries a qualification to
vole at the elect. on seems to meet with
general favor from the press of the state.
i'he primary Is admitted to lie the root
of good or evil In our choice of olllcialR,
tho convention merely showing what work
was done at the primaries. Ah Is well
known, only a mere pittance of the voters
turn out to the primaries, und for de
signing politicians to manipulate the elec
tions ot ncicRaics ,s an eaxy thing. Hav
ing secured them, they go into the conven
tion with what is known In slung phrase
as "dead sure thing. They eare not whut
a mujorlty of the people may wunt, for
they huve the delegates. The only thing
left for the voter lo do at election time
Is either to ratify their work, take re
venge by voting for the opposite cundi-
dute, or absent himself from thu polls.
Against tne two former norns or the ill
lemma his soul cries out and the latter la
a mere shirking of duty, yet ho cannot
find fault, for he did nothing to wrest the
nominations from men whom he knew
wouiu manage them to their own advan
tage. Hud he nnd others who agree with
him in Kentiment attended the primaries,
the result might have been different."
Ilcnvcn Help National Affairs;
Philadelphia Inuulrer: "On tho first of
July lust the increase of the national debt
since the advent of the Cleveland admin
istration amounted to I2S5.II00.0IM). Wednes
day It had attained the enormous sum of
$31)1.000,000! That was in about eleven
weeks. Day by day It Is mounting higher,
under the suicidal policy Inaugurated by
the revenue-destroying Democracy, if
this is what the lmocrats mean by re
forming the administration of national af
fairs, heaven help our national affairs!"
No Sweeping Immunity To Diplomats.
Enston Free Press: "It has always been
held to be the correct stand that a citizen
of any country, who, while In another
country, offends against the laws of that
country, Is amenable to those Isws and
must abide the consequences. So with
members of legations. Any other law
would be an absurdity."
