We notice that most of the car fen

foot or two above the track. Why not,
therefore, put them on top of the car,
near the trolley pole?
Wholesome Party Interest.
Evidences of the manifestation of an
Intellipeint and wholesome Interest In
this fill's campaign by the Republican
voters of 'Luckawanna county are
multiplying. In several localities new
clubs are being formed, with the pur
pose of aMimr in bringing out the parly
vote. In other places, clubs recently
dormant are beiing revived, and prepa
rations begun -for the prosecu tion of an
active canvass.
While It would be wide of the truth to
pay that the campaign fcas become In
any sense exciting, yet the exhibition
of a 'healthy popular Interest In It Is
doubdess sufflolerrt for the present year,
and will render possible the beginning
of next year's prevVdential battle under
acceptable and hairmonlous clrcum
6't'amoeg. Especially when we contrast
the Republican situation with the
chaotic and suicidal condition prevalent
In the enemy's ranks does ths former
opptar to good advantage. There ore
few grudges to vent and s'tlll fewer
fores 'to heal In the Republican camp.
Every candidate "on the Republican
Ftate and county ticket la assured of
cordial and enthusiastic support. Noiie
will be made the target of factional
cnass-flrtag; and none wiijl have occa
sion, in after years, to etand on the
atreet corners and tailk of perfidy, trea
son and ingratitude.
There is, however, ample room for
Republican activity this fall; and H
reeds to be borne Im mnd that a vlotory
Is Ttever secure until the votes are
counted. Every pain made tills year is
likely to be retained next year, when It
irfll be of genuine consequence. The
reooHectfocn of this faot should suffice
to inspire Individual Republicans -with
a dsterminaitlon to co-operate with th!!r
party orffanilxation In the work of forti
fying the Republican position.
Oliver's message will probably try to
consign the Monroe doctrine to the- long
post tense.
Luzerne's Judicial Battle.
The Democrats in Luzerne county
are straining every nerve to make the
common pleas bench solidly Demo
cratic. They are not content with two
of the three Judges, and are now put
ting forth every effort to elect the third
judge also. This Is the work of the
politicians of Democracy, but It Is
hoped and believed that among the
rank and file of that party there are
many who will not aid the leaders
1n the attempt to create a partisan
bench. There could exist only one con
dition that -would Justify the action of
he Luzerne Democracy, and that Is the
nomination of an unfit man by the Re
publicans. That excuse cannot be ad
vanced. There is not an abler or a
cleaner man at the Luzerne bar than
Lyman H.' Bennett, the ' Republican
nominee for judge. Ninety per cent, of
lie members of the (Luzerne bar. If they
were to give their honest Judgment,
would say that In all the more essential
qualifications for the judiciary, Lyman
H. Bennett Js Infinitely the superior of
his Democratic opponent, William 8.
NfdLean, and it rs no disparagement of
Mr. McLean to say th'at much,
Mr. Bennett belongs to that limited
class of lawyer -who are better fitted
for the bench than for the bar; Mr,
McLean belongs to the larger class who
are better fitted,, for the bar than for
the bench.' Mr. Bennett ha never
ceased to be a student of. the law; Mr.
OafdLean has sunply practiced at the
bar, but every merrfber of the Luzerne
bar knows that lie has devoted more
than half of his time to 'business out
side of his profession. Mr (Bennett has
never been a politician, never a parti
san; Mr. MJdLean has constantly dab
bled in partisan politics.
The two strong arguments in favor of
(he election of Mr. Bennett to the judge
hip are: (First, he is the better fitted
Of the two men for the Judiciary, being
tie tnore level-headed, the more hn par
tial and the abler lawyer; second, he
represents the political party that will
have no representative on tha common
pleas bench If ha la defeated.' The prln-
olpal of a non-partisan Judiciary de
mands his election, and this principle
has been almost Invariably recognised
by the Republicans of Luzerne county.
Had the Republicans of Luzerne coun
ty in the past displayed the same par
tisan spirit their opponents are
now exhibiting, there would be
not more than one Democratic
judge In Luzerne today. Judge
Woodward could and would have been
defeated for a second term had the Re
publicans made a nomination against
him. At that election the Republicans
carried the county by 1,500 majority,
and Judge Woodward would have gone
down with the balance of his party's
ticket had the Republicans antagonized
him.
There are some thousands, certainly
many hundreds, of fair-minded, con
servative Democrats In Luzerne who
appreciate the non-partisan attitude
of the Republicans of that county in
tho past with reference to the Judiciary,
and will show that appreciation at the
ensuing election. The friends of Judge
Lynch are especially Interested In this
phase of the situation. Ills turn for a
re-election will come next.' It would be
strange if the patience of the Luzerne
Republicans did not become exhausted
In time by the repeated partisanlsm and
greed of the Democrats in the matter
of the election of judges.
Maybe Billy Craig is not an exalted
philanthropist, working impersonally
for the nation's good. Rut that doesn't
obscure the faot that the proceedings of
the Herring hearing should be made
public.
The Renascence of Foot Ball.
The recent and successful Inaugura
tion of the local foot ball season by the
kicking of one of the players into In
sensibility, followed by delirium, brings
once more to the fore what Is called by
Its devotees "the king of sports." From
this time forward until midwinter, va
cant lots will re-echo with the din of
Improvised gridiron, conllict, and near
by dwellings will do volunteer duty as
emergency hospitals.
Barbers, too, will scowl and grow lean
under the distasteful regime of the
elongated foot-ball bang; and In the
parlors of society there will be a re
enthronement of muscular masculinity
as typified on the hardy "eleven."
Those who know say the foot ball craze
Is growing every season; and, at the
ratio of the spread of last year's con
tagion, this year's augmentation will
become something formidable.
One serious thought obtrudes through
all the naturally suggested nonsense
of the moment; and It Is one of regret
that a game so full of admirable ath
letic possibilities should so frequently
degenerate Into a mere paroxysm of
brutality. While occasional infrac
tions of decency are Inseparable from
spirited out-of-door competitions. It Is
coming to be expected of foot ball
that violations of good taste shall prove
the rule rather than the exception. Un
less the game can be purged of a large
proportion of these multiplying abuses
and excesses, it will inevitably fall into
disfavor.
Rumors of that "vigorous foreign
policy" are becoming a trifle monoton
ous. Where Is the policy?
A Chance for Colonel Haywood.
The Philadelphia Bulletin appropri
ately suggests, upon the threshold of
the much-vaunted new era of reform In
state affairs, that Colonel Haywood, in
his letter of acceptance as the Republi
can candidate for state treasurer,
pledge himself to exert his Influence to
put an end to the mischievous practice
of farming out the state's cash bal
ances to favorite banks, without Inter
est. It reinforces Its suggestion by the
timely observation that If the munici
pality of 'Philadelphia can without diffi
culty command 2 per cent, interest upon
Its moneys on deposit, there Is appar
ently no reason why the commonwealth
of Pennsylvania should continue to de
prive herself of an equal interest rev
enue from her 45,000,000 of distributed
reserve funds.
Such a pledge on Colonel Haywood's
part would probably Involve pecuniary
sacrifice; for It Is hardly probable that
the state treasurer does not receive
some share In the 100,000 of annual
Interest on state reserve funds of which,
under present conditions, no official
record Is made. But any loss from this
direction would tie more than compen
sated by the Increased public confidence
which he could command by a frank
and valiant stand against a notorious
evil. From our knowledge of Colonel
Haywood's character and sagacity we
suspect that he would be the first to
condemn the old method and to ap
plaud Its abolition along the lines of the
pigeon-holed Kauffman bill of last ses
sion. (For Ben Haywood, as we have
good reason to know, Is an honest man.
dt will gratify lovers of music every
where to learn thai the Royal Welsh
Ladlee' choir, which is to Bing in this
city on next Tuesday evening, at the
Frothlngham theater, has conenitid,
on the following day, to sing "Ye Haf,"
the Illustrious miner-composer's mas
terpiece, at the unveiling, In Hollenbock
cemetery, WllkesiBarre, the me
morial monument to Owllym Owen.
The excrclseb upon this occasion prom
ise to be most appropriate, Including In
addition to the Hem Just Indicated, a
song by the? dwent Glee society, choral
selection by several visiting choirs,
and addresses by Judge H. M. Ed'words
and "Rev. Dr. T. C. Edwards. But
there Is no likelihood, despite all those
elaibarate preparations, that honor wHl
ever be heaped too high over the rest
ing place of poor, gifted Owllym G went.
In the course of on intelligent review
of the Judicial contest m Luzerne coun
ty the Philadelphia Press discreetly ob
serves that "Judge Bennett is a man
for whom any citizen of .Luzerne, no
matter what his party, can vote with a
feeling of eaiftofactkm that he Is aiding
lii 'the election of a competent, Intelli
gent and honest Judge. In their oppo
sition to him, and in the attempt to
make a court wholly of Democrats, tha
Democratic politicians are establish tna
a precedent they will 'have cause to re
gret." The electorate of iAizerne la not
tut all likely to vote tts encouragement,
next month, to the attempted Dean-
ooratllo packing of that county' count.
Since 1878, under Spanish' rule, tna
island of Cuba, with only 1,600.000 popu
lation, more than half poor, has been
burdened with the enormous standing
debt of 1300,000,000, not counting tha fat
picking that Spanish oppressor have
pocketed on the sly. Is it any wonder
that Cuba revolts?
We take very little stock In the story
that strong opposition is massing Itself
against the re-election of Senator Quay
as national chairman. The man who
can organize battles like Quay can isn't
the man to turn down, when there's a
president to be elected.
Sioux CHy, la., doctors are In a row
over the ethics of advertising. The
regulars, as near as we can learn, ob
ject to paying for their publicity like
honest men. They prefer to sneak it
into print as Items of news.
If General Harrison's law practice Is
bringing; him In $150,000 a year, all we
can say is that he earns It better than
a certain other former lawyer earns a
third as much.
The whipping post Is the proper thing
for wife-beaters, and It wouldn't be a
bad thlnar for preachers who knowingly
marry runaway couples for the fees
there are In it.
Senator Hill's belated decision that
down at bottom he was all the time a
gold bug Inclines one to believe he was
really a straddle bug.
It need not be feared that Colonel
Fitzsimmons will forcibly interject
himself Into tho Cralg-Herring situa
tion as peacemaker.
Mr. Cleveland could carry Wall street
fora third ora tenth term. Wall street
doesn't let patriotic sentiment interfere
with 'business.
The chances of Bradley carrying Ken
lucky coincide with the chances of an
honest count. Give us that and Brad
ley will win.
When Olney twists the lion's tall he
probablv hi careful to send notice 'to
Kn gland that it's only for home con
sumption. Pretty soon congress will have Mr.
Cleveland on its hands, r between
them.
POLITICALLY SPEAKING.
Philadelphia. Bulletin: "If the Repnb
lleun national committee at Its meeting
this month were to call the next presiden
tial convention for September, 83, then!
would be no serious objections raised by
anybody outside of the clrele of political
mendicants and strikers The men who
thrive on long presidential campaigns will,
of course. trote't asulnst any change
which would be likely to lessen the size of
the ever-Increasing comaign lunus or tne
two great parties or reduce their oppor
tunity of throwing the country into ex
citement. Possibly a few old-fashioned
person would murmur over the disap
pearance, of tho urolonKed season of mass
meeting torch light parad u and Ptump
oratory; Dut an ovorwneiming majority
of lntelllmmt men In all Dartles would wel
come tho Innovation. In these days of the
telegraph, the railroad, the telephona and
the cheap newspaper there Is no excuse
for maintaining the custom of a live or
six months' canvass. In the two months
preceding a presidential convention It Is
now posalblo to do all that Is required for
the enllghtf nment of the voters as to can
didates and Issues."
II II II ,
Chicago Times-Herald: "There Is need
of reform In the country as well as In the
city primary. It has too long been the
cuistom to allow three or four pnld hire
lings of a legislative corruptlonlst to get
together In the bark end of a saloon nnd
Aprnrvc-o aeoretlv a list of delegates to the
convention. Their names are printed on a
ticket; the ballot box Is opened In tne post
olllce or some other convenient place;
there Is a pretense of adherence to regu
lar caucus methods: a hundred or more
ballots arc deposited In In box by citi
zens who are persuaded by the heeler In
charge of the box to do ko, but who hardly
know whst they are voting for, and care
less: and &3nator So-and-So 'has the dele

nated. That Is a country oaucusA No

AS TO CONFIDENCE.
i
From a Speenh by Congressman Perkins,
of Iowa: "Everybody rays that what we
need Is confidence moro confidence. We
have been short on corfldnee ever since
Mr. Cleveland was elected. The short
age Imrenwed when It was known that
along with him went a congress Demo
cratic In 'both branches. Every Jump his
team of wild horses made trampled on
confidence.
The election lart fall encouraged confi
dence. It presented proof that the pjople
hnd repented In eackcloth and arhes the
folly of 1K92. Ai evidence of good faHh
they Improved the opportunity to make
the house of reoresentstlves Republican
by a big majority. There is confidence
now that the Democratic party cannot leg
islate further mischief.
"An administration that relies upon a
periodica Issue of bonds to keep the
treasury afloat Isn't In position to com
mand the confidence of the American peo
ple. It Is idle to expect confidence In th
gold reserve or confidence' In the cur
rency so long as revenues are unequal to
expenditures so long as the treasury Is
syctematlcally starved. A surplus In the
treasury and s. surplus of Republicans In
congress saved Mr. Cleveland's adminis
tration from disgrace In his first term.
Mr. Cleveland himself would have more
confidence If he had some of that surplus
at his disposal now.
"The people of this country are Aim-loans,
no matter where they came from;
and they want a government for Amer
ica. They neither want free trade In In
dustrials nor In patriotism. We are the
loyal friends of the Monroe doctrine. Wj
have no confidence In foreign protector
ates on this continent, nor among the Isl
ands of tha sea washing our shores. We
have no confidence In ' the Democratic
policy of Compelling our wage-earnera to
compete with ths rhapet labor In the
markets of the world. Ws have mure
confidence In ths markets of the United
States than we have In the markeC of
Europe or of Asia. We have no confluence
In the Democratic policy of closing facto
ries here and opening factories abroad.
We have no confidence In the poller of
reducing export and Increasing Imports,
As a matter of fact, there Is lack of confi
dence In the Dtmocratlo party alo'.tg the
whole line, and It Isn't the purpose to try
toi rastore.it.
"But, tny fHends, we have confidence in
mis great country. In Its Institutions, an-l
In Its people. And we have confidence In
the Republican narty. In its natlonal.am.
In Its patriotism. In Its history and In its
ruture. JoiilVciice will be fully restored
when the Rt publican pa-ty is fully re
stored." COMMENT OF THE PRESS.
The Need of Good Koads.
' Washington Pot: "A Brooklyn corre
spondent of the Chicago News brings out.
In a striking manner, the Immediate and
material Interest which the farmers have
In this subject. He quotes government
figures compiled a few years ago relating
to the number of draff animals owned by
farmers in this country, as follows:
Average
Number. Value. Price.
Horses H.2U.S.T? J978.r)16.53 Jfi0
Mules S.S31.IW7 m.&H.m TS
oxen, etc 3i.S49.0-Ji 6t.625,i:f7 16
Totals G3.Sl3.8S8 11,721.535,798
On this basis the correspondent estimates
that not less than S.OUO.OOO horses more
are being kept than would be required to
do 'the hauling between farm and mar
ket ir we had well constructed roads. He
estimates that these extra animals con
sume about IKXI.UUO worth of feed a day,
or about tlU.UUU.uuo a year. This is one of
many strong arguments In favor of the
road reform."
Pertinently Remarked.
Chicago Times-Herald: "As to the Mon
roe doctrine, If It be not pertinent to
abatement of a nuisance maintained by
Hiialn off the southeast coast of the United
Htatea, with constant peril for American
commerce, It seems somewhat Irrelevant
In relation to an antiquated squabble be
tweervuit Independent .South American re
public and Ureal Hrltaln over a little more
or less of Venezuelan real estate."
Cuba's Course la Justified.
Chicago Record: "If our revolution was
justitieil because of the Injustice and op
pressions of British rule the uprising In
Cuba Is ten times justified. For more
than 2UU years the people of that Island
have suffered under burdens and indigni
ties which the people of the United Htatea
would not patiently endure for a day."
Falls to Carry Conviction.
Chicago Record: "The effort of some of
Mr. McKinley's friends to look as though
there were no Huirrlson boom within a
thousand miles Is Interesting but fulls to
carry conviction."
Food for Alignment.
Pittsburg Times: "The old question o!
should a horse be leaten has been set
tled, but the new one s to whether the
horse rhould be eaten la at least food for
argument."
:o:
Getting Talked About.
Chicago Record: "Mr. Whitney's candi
dacy hus arrived at the advanced condi
tion In which rumors concerning Its own
er's health are circulated with ease and
frequency."
He Is Thoroughly Wonnd l'p.
Detroit Tribune: "Senator Hill has dis
covered that the annihilation of Mr.
Roosevelt Is likely to partake of the na
ture of a continuous performance."
Don't Bo Too Previous.
