Practical Christian Work.
No better nor more timely eermon
was preached In any pulpit yesterday
than was pronounced at the Second
Presbyterian church In the eloquent
appeal of iKev. Dr. Logan for more nc.
tive co-operation from the churches
of thl9 valley In the work of American
lzlng the S0.0OO men, women and child
ren In Luzerne and Lackawanna coun
ties who now do not speak the English
language, do not understand the full
meaning of (American Institutions and
will, so long as they shall remain un
asslmllated. be a constant source of
friction and trouble.
In this work Christianity and patriot
Ism Instantly coincide. It Is Impossible
In a republic to expect good results
from communities whose population Is
dissevered and lacking In homogeneity.
Tlefore preaching the gospel to the
heathen of Hindustan It Is obviously a
duty owed to Christ as well as to the
state to make effective provision for
the reclamation of these unconverted
"strangers within our gates" who
would otherwise grow up, from genera
tion to generation, as much apart from
the customs and Institution: around
than as they have been, for 1.000 years,
In race-divided Austria. Magyr and
Slovak and Pole and Hun, each a type
of Irrepressible racial conflict, are mul
tiplying in the midst of us, but, with
few exceptions, becoming not of us;
and he fact Is a very manifest source
and portent of danger.
The Executive committee of the
Lackawanna Presbytery has displayed
characteristic discernment In selecting
as the chief weapon in Its campaign of
home evangelization among these peo
ple 'the kindergarten, thus appealing
to the impressionable young. Though
H may not be practicable to accomplish
much toward the assimilation of the
non-English speaking adult generation
of today there Is high hope with refer
ence to Its children, most of whom are
porn on American soil, and therefore
more susceptible than their parents to
American Influences. The Incident cited
by Dr. Logan of nineteen little Slovaks
t Peekvllle, who, beginning In a kin
dergarten without knowing a word of
English, were in six weeks taught to
sing and pray understanding In our
language. Is a significant hint of pos
sible results along this line of practical
missionary endeavor. It proves that
the task Is not Impossible.
At a time when it Is Incapable of
proof hat much of the money sent
from Christian America to convert the
distant heathen Is not literally wasted,
there Is something saddening In the
fact that during the past year out of
the hundred churches In the Lacka
wanna Presbytery only twelve made
contributions to this practical and pa
triotic plan of home evangelization,
and these only to the amount of $480.
The multiplication of this paltry sum
a thousand fold would, religion wholly
apart, be the best Investment of money
ever achieved In Northeastern Pennsyl
vania. It would mean almost the
emptying of our now disgracefully
overcrowded courts, the end of much
lawlessness and strife, and the plant
ing of seed which within a generation
would fructify Into peace, thrift and
prosperity without parallel.
The trouble is that there's too rrmc.h
campaigning and too little thinking In
this country.
Will History Repeat Itself ?
It I not surprising that English
diplomatists are unable to understand
this republic's curious attitude toward
Cuba. The London correspondent of
the New York Tribune says that one of
the best known colonial governors In
the British service Is freely quoted as
expressing his surprise that the United
States does not adopt a policy which
will lead to the annexation of Cuba.
That,' of course would be England's
policy, and It would not be slow In act
ing, either. , " , ' ,
Perhaps some light Is shed, on the sub
ject by the assertion of Walter Well
man, the Washington correspondent,
hat Senor Dupuy de Lome, the new
Spanish minister to this country, after I
returning from a summer's vacation
passed for the greater part in associa
tion with Secretary Olney. has recently
boasted In private conversation that he
had "fixed" the American government.
Of course, the' meaning of this alleged
remark Is purely conjectural. One of
the conjectures advanced with refer
ence to it Is that the recent payment to
this government by Spain of the Mora
claim, at a time when Spanish finances
were anything but prosperous, was a
special mark of favor, designed with a
view to tying our hands In the Cuban
matter. We should not like to believe
that there exists any real grounds for
these discreditable suspicions, but after
the Hawaiian incident, nothing In lu-m-ocratlo
diplomacy can be said to be be
yond the limits of Hsslbility.
In a few months this whole question
will pass from the exclusive control of
our curious executive department Into
the hands of a congress wherein public
sentiment may find prompt and ade
quate expression. When this moment
shall arrive, we will not be surprised to
learn of developments as sensational in
their way as were the disclosures forced
by congress during the Hawaiian Inci
dent. Senator Chandler's suspicion as to
the Insullleleney r the Interstate com
merce law's enforcement Is by no
means a mental monopoly.
5acrlf!ced by Its Champions.
An exceedingly dlgnllled. and, If ap
pearances are to be trusted, true diag
nosis of the Irish situation is drawn by
Elwyn A. liarron In a recent letter from
London to the Chicago Tlmes-fllernld.
Since the overwhelming victory of the
unionists In the recent election the Irish
party." he declares, "never very har
monious since the passing of l'anicll,
lias lost Its head utterly, and gone all
to pieces, seemingly; and the great In
terests of Ireland nre swallowed up In
the ambitious jealousies of factional
belligerents. More cursed to Ireland
than all the evils of I'.rltish rule or
tyranny, ns you choose to style it, huve
been the 'Isms' that demagogues and
others have created for the distraction
of the people. Just now the disruptive
elementala are Jillonlsm. llealylsm.
MeCurthyism, Jlodmandism. l'arnell-
ism, antl-il'arnellism, between which
the people nre sacrificed as they al
ways will be sacrificed until self-seekers
are sternly displaced by some truly
great and patriotic lender.
'There are but two ways along which
it Is possible to alter the political status
of Ireland; one of these Is named par
liamentary reform, the other Is named
revolution. In this enlightened age
revolution Is not esteemed as a cardinal
virtue, and fomentors of it are not
thought to be the ' noblest patriots.
Moreover, an Irish revolution would
be an act of suicidal folly, unless it
were bolstered by an enemy to Eng
land sutllclently strong to Imperil the
security of the whole of Great Rritaln.
The most feasible. If not the only prac
ticable way f solving the solvable
problems of the Anglo-Irish situation
Is the parliamentary one. And those
problems probably will not be found
very dllllcultof solution when the Irish
shall do three things for themselves
agree fairly upon their wants; choose
candid, capable and unselfish men to
represent and urge those wants; and
act with consistency, sincerity and
harmony in the support of their ap
proved representatives. If there Is ever
to be a time when unity, moderation,
Judgment and candor of unselfishness
on the part of her representatives In
parliament shall 'be of service and
benoflt to Ireland that time Is now.
They are an unsupported minority
against one of the strongest govern
ments England has known since the
act of union.
"They can hope for nothing to be
gained through a policy of obstruction
and exasperation. The government.
out of Its very strength. Is disposed to
be lenient and fair the consciousness
that It can carry all Its measures with
large majorities tending to render It
Indulgent end forbearing. Suggestions
and proposals from the Irish members
have been graciously received and as
far as has been Judicious, promises
have been given to advance or protect
the Interests Indicated. In short, ev
erything seems most favorable to the
wise and honest furtherance of the
genuine Interests of Ireland, which are,
after all la said and done, the Interests
of the United Kingdom. In what man
ner have the Irish representatives pre
pared to take advantage of the oppor
tunities now offered and likely to bo
offered In the course of tho next six
years? - They have fallen Into a squab
ble over the apple of discord that a
mischievous fate has flung Into their
midst, and the prospects now are that
Ireland Is once more to be mnde a
sacrifice to the liaal of personal ambi
tions." Americans have It In their power to
aid materially In bringing the fighting
Irish leaders to their senses. They
should not fall. In friendship for Ire
land's true Interests, to exercise this
Influence, and thus do their share
toward effecting the needed reconcilia
tion.
According to Washington advices,
Secretary of State Olney "wants to
make a record." 'He needs one.
McClure on downs.
The most serious defender of the Ju
dicial gown whom we have seen Is Col
onel McClure. Ho views In Its assump
tion by the common plens Judges of
Philadelphia a bright beacon of sweep
ing reformation In the methods and
morals of our courts of law. He snyn,
aiming other things: "Many years ago,
when no class of our people except the
soldier gave expression to his mission
by his' uniform, there might have been
some criticism of the adoption of ju
dicial gowns, but today the adoption
of a dress that Is tho Insignia of office
begins with our messenger boy and
runs through all distinctive classes to
the general commanding the armies of
the republic. All this has been done
with the hearty approval of considerate
public sentiment, and If there Is one
plaoe more than another where the
ress should Indicate the character of
the office It Is In the sanctuary of Jus
tice." Of course, if It shall prove that the
wearing of silken robes will improve a
Judge's Intellect and conserve his sense
of fairness and decorum popular disin
clination for this especial form of mon-
key show will be likely to diminish.
We should be glad to look forward to
such a consummation with a tithe of
Colonel McClure's Idyllic faith. As It
is. we labor under dread and stagger
under misapprehension. We suspect
that the tailor can no more make the
judge than he can, with his tapeline
and cloths, create the common man.
And we marvel at the kind of judicial
"dignity" which feels unsafe unless re
inforced by the fabrics that women
wear.
1 1 Is a fortunate sign that no north
ern lvmocratlc newspaper has yet
tried to excuse the South Carolina nt
tenipt to perpetuate In the state's or
ganic law the now Illegal political os
tracism of the negro.
We doubt whether It will Irremedi
ably grieve the great American public
to learn that Oovc rnor Altgeld deems
it grossly corrupt.
Now that "the bicycle craze has spread
to the pulpit, the novel and the stage,
there remains for Its conquest only the
