Election duy, Nov. B.
The next president will be a repub
lican living east or west of the Missis
sippi. And what differs it, which?
As to General Harrison.
lACter till has been f?ald with reference
to the aHcffcd retirement of ex-Presl-Oenlt
IIiirrI?on nu a candidate for re
nominaitlon, 'the public appears to stand
just where It stood when the dlsreuss'Ion
-lei?an. The original assertion that
OtmeraJ Harrison had decided he would
have no show In a convenitlem repre
senting 'the xxviy which seven years
ago elected hian president, and four
years later re-namlnated him, was suf
ilclenitly preposterous; but It became
more so when that lannislng person,
JYrtin C. New, in one day gave to the
press three separate interviews, each
taking a dlfferer.t view of General Har
rison's prospects and Intentions.
From amidst t'he idle rumors and Im
pertinent vaporlngs of the t-pisoile,
'however, a few facts rise clearly Into
prominence. It is cei'taln, ait last, that
General Hurriyon is not standing in
anybody's way In the matter of the
presidential nomination. He is not a
seeking cantl'date and will not 'be dis
appointed If he is not again chosen.
To 'be sure, he would not scorn the sub
etantlally unanimous call of his party,
should t ask for his nominutlon as an
expedk-nt of party pacification, but he
is net working toward such a. result,
neWher are Ills true friends. In other
words, 'his attitude, in this affaiir. Is
wholly passive. He has already done
Ws duty as a public servant, and can
well afford to pass the remainder of
W days as a private citizen, Just as he
could, with equal propriety, respond to
another demand from his party should
It come to him without hint or personal
BoMcHtatlon.
t The idea, that because General Harri
son dofa not grow garrulous at every
Impertinent beck of the rumor-mongers
who serve as the parasttes of the
great, he Is therefore deep In plots and
etraitagems looking toward his own re
election Is as ridiculous as It 13 un
complimentary. Nothing tin the ex
president's character rives plausibility
to the stories which portray him as a
jealous and air Inordinately a.mbttlou3
man, ready to sacrifice anybody and
everything that Interrupts his progress.
It 'would do the Republican press no
harm and It would do the truth a great
deal of gcxyj to desist from this mawk
ish view of a man who In every civic as
well as military relation has uniformly
disclosed the 'Instincts of the patriot
and the admirable qualities of the cul
tured gentleman.
No doubt Mexico would like to annex
Cuba. Mexico Isn't administered on
the afraid-it-ls-Ioaded plan.
An Excited Eulogist.
W. L. Trenholm, now president of the
American Surety company of New
York, but comptroller of the treasury
during the first Cleveland administra
tion, 'has reached a conclusion. "If the
coming congress shall neglect to pass
some practical legislation for the relief
of the finances of the government," he
says, " the people of the country, with
out regard to party, will Insist upon
the renominatlon of Mr. Cleveland, and
they will see to it that he is re-elected."
And then he adds: "It -Is not a question
of party success, or party failure, but
It is a question whether the business
Interests of the entire country shall
be preserved and the credit of the gov
ernment maintained."
It Is possible that Mr. Trenholm does
riot know that the embarrassed condi
tion of the treasury is due to a "ques
tion of party failure" of Democratic
party failure but If he is thus ig
norant, he is without companionship.
Everybody else who knows anything
concerning affair knowl that the gov
ernment revenues were looted by Mr.
Cleveland's- express command. ' He
wanted a revenue measure passed
which, had It become the law as origi
nally framed, would have placed the
finances of the nation In almost twice
as bad a plight as they are In today.
He even wanted this so earnestly that
ho hurled epithets at the Democrats
who refused to go to the revolutionary
extent Indicated In the unmodified Wil
son bill; and declined to sign their
amendments, tout InBtead let them be
come a law by exeoutlve default , The
Democratic tariff bill aa It stands Is
bad enough, having already forced the
nation to sell $162,000,000 of interest
bearing bonds. In order to meet the
running expenses of the government;
but it it had 'been enacted as at first
framed, the deflolt would in all proba
bility not have been covered by the
sale of $300,000,000 interest-bearing se
curities. Mr. Trenholm Is unduly Impressed
with Grover Cleveland's greatness.
We should have a poor opinion of
Americans as a class If we did not be
lieve that In every populated township
ir. the educated sections of the country
there are dozens of men Just as capa
ble, as patriotic and as trustworthy In
emergency as Is Mr. Cleveland; and
hence Just as capable as he was of
becoming president of the United
States.
The Story that Olney hud given Spain
three months' grace In which to pack
up and get out of Cuba will need to
produce aillUavilts.
Shorten the Canvass.
Colonel Clurkson, the eminent Iowa
Republican, confesses that he Is sur
prised to note tile widespread interest
aroused by the proposition to shorten
the next presidential campaign to two
months; and his surprise Is evidently
commingled with alarm. "As a matter
of fact," he says, "all of our presiden
tial campaigns are very short, none
of them lasting more than a month or
six weeks. Of course the executive
committee of the national committee
may be Jn session or must be In ses
sion several niojiths perfecting details
of a preliminary nature. There are
about S0.O00 polling places In the coun
.ry, and organization is necessary In
order to give proper attention to the
entire country. Hut all preliminary
work is done without ostentation, and
the business world has practically no
knowledgeof the existence of the execu
tive committee until the campaign be
gins about Oct. 1, and then the political
pot toils continually until the fight
is over. I do not think business Inter
ests are disturbed by political cam
paigns, except where business Interests
are directly threatened, as they were
In 1S92. But the political campaign of
1S36 -will be a campaltcn for the pro
tection of American industries and for
the advancement of the Interests of our
ivorklngmen, and the prospect of the
return of the Republican party to power
can produce no other than a good and
beneficial .Influence upon the business
world."
We do not anticipate that the cam
paign year, ending as it will In a rous
ing Republican victory, will seriously
unsettle business. It is likely to have
directly the contrary effect. Rut Col
onel Clarkson is mistaken In the asser
tion that a six-months' canvass Is not
detrimental to business. Colonel Clark
son, being a newspaper owner, may
gauge other lines of business by that
with which he Is personally familiar. In
which event he Is deceived. Campaigns
help the newspapers because they cause
all classes of people to read. But they
Just as certainly hurt the staple In
dustries, and the learned professions, for
these require calm minds and undivided
attention. The hooks of any merchant
will reflect the Inroads of presidential
years. Only a Fmall percentage of busi
ness men escape direct and considerable
loss. And If Colonel Clarkson will
make Inquiries among his merchant
friends in Des Moines we think he will
discover that he Is mistaken.
The Republican party, as the party
of business prosperity, should set the
example of ordering a short campaign.
The whole amount of it seems to be
that Mr. New was too fresh.
Strange September Weather.
The month which ended yesterday
will long be noWble for the variety
of Its weather. Beginning with aver
age temperature, there wus first a sud
den cold spell that sent unaccllmated
persons shivering to their furnaces and
overcoats; then a heated period of ex
treme Intensity, rivaling at one point
'ihe highest temperature of the summer;
and finally, another re-lapse Into frig
idity, even more abrupt than the first
one, the effects of which relapse are
not yet exhausted. Persons versed In
'meteorological phenomena will find the
ofilcial summary of September weather,
as given out by the weather bureau,
more interesting than the most thrill
ing novel. lit is, dn fact, a drama of
whirling and tnceswint high pressure
areas, vacuums and storm centers,
Juxtaposed in unprecedented combina
tions which even yc't puzzle the savants
who make such things a study.
Perhaps the lost cold wave is the
more Interesting of the two. After the
whirling vacuums noted by the weath
er observers along about the 17th as
having their center 4n the Dakotas had
sauntered away, one going southward
and the other pursuing a northesterly
course toward the great lakes, thera
suddenly appeared, far in the north
west, possibly of Alaskan origin, on
energetic high-pressure' area that
brought with it halj and snow and frost
In rare abundance. Its course is thus
eloquently described iln the William
sport Grit:
Swinging in over the. corner of Wash
ington It eromied the Snnke. K'.ver valley
over the Rocky mountain (n the west of
Colorado, and so on to the oouthpawt un
til its ley breaths were eh'lling the very
marrow In the bones of the renl estate
boomers in the towns of Oklahoma,
Rarely if ever has such a story an that of
the progress of thteareaof high pressure
been told. Tho frozen Has! that were
hurled from Jts whirling mass went driv
ing away at all but hurn'cano speed,
spreading frost and snow wherever Ihe'r
power was felt. On tiatuniay, the Hint,
tho driving morm spread four inches of
snow oveir Utah. On Wiinduy the gale
was wh!ten!ng the prairies of Nebraska,
and a Kttle later the cornfields of Iowa.
At Qreeley, Col., fourteen Inches of snow
fell. Everywhere the cold w'.nd thrUHt it
self under tho hot ars that had come
from the south and instantly threw them
up and away beyond tbe reach of the feel
ings of man or of merrory thormomoters.
In the region about C-a,ha tho tempera
ture fell 61 degrees between observations,
and at Des Moiines it fell 3a degrees in fif
teen minutes, wWlo tho wind there rove
to a velocity of 'xty m'.les an hour in
about the same spaoe 'of time. It was a
swift march of triumphant progress thnt
h!s mighty powor iva making. With
(Is center away down In the Indian terri
tory, It was sending Its fierce meienrrerA
scurrying away to the great hikes; and
wherever -they touched they drove down
the mercury from 20 to 40 degrees.
The force of this tempestuoua Intrud
er is not yet spent; 'but it in an interest
ing circumstance that the days of chief
fi'lstucbance 4n September were accu
rately foretold In the prognostications
of Professor Coles, of Kingston, pu
Itehed in fbese columns full fortnight
In advance.
Postmaster Vandllng has forwarded
to the department In Washington a
quarterly report of the receipts of the
Sctianton office for the three months
ending las night. Figures are ordln
a.rilly prosaic and commonplace, but in
that they furnish material for Inter
esting comparison. Possibly the post
office and its business ia one of the
moft accurate thermometers of the de
crease or advance of general business
In a community. For the quarter end
ing yesterday the Scranton postofllee
tales aggregated $24,101.40, while for the
corresponding period lust year the
amount waa $2,292.98 less. The first
fiscal quarter also showed a marked
increase, and if a corresponding ad
vance is made until next April, there
will 'be another substantial proof that
Scranton lis in good 'business health.
PoEitofflce figures don't lie.
In the fiscal year which ended June
30, 1S94, under the McKlnley tariff,
we exported 63,475,653 bushels of corn.
In the corresponding period of 1S95,
our exports of corn, under the Wilson
Gorman tariff, were 25,507,753 bushels.
That -Is how Democratic administration
helps the farmer.
We do not know what truth there is
In the New York Herald's contention
hunt District Attorney Fell, of Luzerne
county, is slow to help In the opprehen
niun of criminals; but the criminal sta
tlatlcs In that county show that some
body is slow.
The disposition to exalt Mr. Cleveland
into the piopontions of an immortal
Is fortunately confined -te a very small
coterie.
Almost any old party could run a
government into the hole.

COMMENT OF THE PRESS.
Pico for a Short Campaign.
Roe-heater Post-Express: "It is clear
that the great commercial and manufac
turing Interests nf the country demand u
short presidential campaign, and we think
the politicians of both parties should heed
1'hifl demand. Prom a political rjtan 1
polnt there is no reason why the cam
paign should be long. The average Amer
ican citizen does not requ.ro s.x months
In which to make up his mind to whom ho
wishes to give h a vote. The discussion of
political issues in this country is not con
fined to tho middle of presidential yeurs,
but goes on constantly. In the old days,
when there was a lack of telegraphic fa
cilities and when newspapers were few,
political speeches were needed to get the
Isjoies lefore the people. Hut now to a
large extent the newspapers have taken
the place of the campaign speaker. The
people know what the issues aro and aro
more determined than ever to do their
own thinking. Almost the only thing diet
a rnmpalgn speaker of today can accom
plish is to arouse a eerta'n degree of en
thusiasm omorg the members of his
party. He can help 'get out the vote,' but
he rarely makes a convert. A short ami
energetic campnign is all that '.a really
necessary in this country now."
What Rclllgcront Rights Imply.
Chicago Tlines-Heraid: "To recoj.-n.o
belligerent rights as belonging to revolu
tonl.sts places thcin on tha foot'ng of a
state at war and aflords thorn all tho prlr-Ueiec-s
of civilized warfare. It gives them
no diplomatic r ghts nor any standing as a
rtuto among nations. On tho other hand,
t puts them on the same foot r.g in their
relation with neutral powers as tho parent
state enjoys. They can buy nml cell, ne
gotiate loans and do all other things .thnt
any nation can do under I. tic circum
stances." Sn Sny Ho All.
Montroro Sent'ncl: "Tho hearts of the
I'beirty-lov'.ng peofle of our land are with
the pntflots of Cuba in their fight for In-dcpfndn:-e,
und the patriots- conxvnsus
of opln'on, in the United Slates, th.it

urould be rccognlzjd by oiir government
at- Washington. Ool spool the day of
freedom for poor down-trodden Cubu."
v .;o: .
', Law ,Mut lio ObeycJ.
I'lttston Item: "The obligation of ovitrv
citizen to obey the lav.j, all tha luws.
every tow, so long as these are unrepealed
cannot be too strongly defended or en
forced. The enforcement of on obnoxious
hew is the surest way to remedy any in
justice It may embody or impose, for uch
enforcement will arouse a public opin
ion demanding a reptai of whatever is
unfair or unjust in its prov Is'.ons."
A Hopeful Innovation.
Philadelphia Bulletin: "Tho horseless
carr.age, it is suld, is only a success on
smooth, hard roads. So much the hotter.
There are Indications that it is about to
become a fad in this country, and. If so,
it will be a powerful ally of the good
roads movement."
Mnch Sweeter to Contemplate
Chicago Interior: "It may bo that the
vls.on of a municipal government de
voted to munlcpul order and economy and
virtue Is ' an iridescent dream.' but .t .8
much sweeter to e-ontemplatu than whit
moMt of our cities now have, a putrescent
rtullty."
Our Plethoric statesmen.
Washington Star: "Several of the dis-t'ngul.-hed
political bosses are sa.d to
have their hands full at the present t.nv
Hut several of th-m also have their pock
ets full."
Nobody Is Satisfied.
Washington Star: "The present Is n
era of discontent. The anx'ety of Ha
waii and Cuba to get annexed is exceeded
only by that of Ireland to get discon
nected." Alado a Scparnto Ledger.
Chicago Times-Herald: "Owing to tho
pif-xstiro of business Si. Peter has prob
ably found It necessary to open a spec.al
Be-t'of bcok3 for the trolley victims."

Majestic Ranges are made of steel
and maleable iron, riveted together,
making them perfectly air-tight, gas
tight and ash-proof. The ovens can
not warp, being riveted to a solid
malable angle iron, both in front and
back, the body of the Range being
riveted to the same.
P.EHBER
This is the only Range in the world
in the hands of the dealer made this
way. For durability, economy of
fuel, quick and perfect baking, the
Majestic Steel Range has no equal.
To this 150,000 of the best houses in
America can testify. .
Now on sale and being exhibited
at our store.
