Quay for Internal Improvements.
Senator Qu'ay's aimouneoment of an
Intention to Introduce In the nex't con
gress a general bill for the achleve-
rnewt of certain' "needed tnternal li
provemcnits, such, tor example, as Mib
proposed canal across New Jersey, otst
nectrng New York tiaiibor with .tho Tel
oware, the deepening; of the Delaware
omd the caiml connecting Lake Kfle
vvllh the Oh'lo, Tioit to mention the lonff
moated steaimShlp canal from Buffalo
oral tlno groat lakes to 'tide-waiter uit New
York city, 'these to be raid for by the
raising-, for a series of years, of addi
tional revenue through the Increasing
of Import klutiles on sugar, woolens, pot
tery .nd other urWdes sacrificed by
Democratic experimentation, will at
tract widespread attention. His argu
ment in support of tiho proposition is
fitralghM opward and to it'he point. Saya
lie:
"No one. to my knowledge disputes the
practicability or the enormous value to
tho country nit lars, In Both peace ann
war, of these public works, but all of them
lire lnnKuishlnir for want of money, Kv-
ery one of thum has been nKltated before
congress and the people for years until
IcKlslatora and their constituents from
one end of the country to tho other are
thoroughly familiar with their necessity
and advantnRp, but as I have Just said,
nil these tlins languish, not because tho
people and tho conirross do not appreciate
their merits, but because the government
lacks funds necessary to carry them to
completion. Now, my suRKvstlon Is that
it would be a wise public policy to raise
a revenue especially for tho purpose of
pushlnR the Krent Internal Improvements
to completion In a period, say, of ten
years at a total expenditure which I
roudhly estimate nt j:iK),Ono,(MK. I am
wholly opposed to any direct taxation on
whisky and beer. There Is no moral sup
port for Increasing those taxes, but our
woolen manufacturers are .threatened with
ruin by the woolen schedules of tho pres
ent customs law, which, on the other
band, Is acknowledged to be of immense
benefit to flrent HrlUiln. ThesiiRnr Indus
try of Lniiisluna aUd the beet sujir in
dustry of tho west would be saved by an
additional duty on ruw sujrnr. Pottery
would be readied from becoming n lost
art by additional duty on that product.
It would not be necessary to reopen the
entire tariff question. A deflnito schemo
of amending the tariff could be framed po
ns to afford needed protection to specified
Industries nnd the additional revenue thus
produced could be very exactly calculated
nnd definitely Assigned to use for public
approval. In this way the treasury would
be relieved of the river and hnrbor 1)111
nnd In ten years tho Improvements would
be completed to Inure to the Incalculable
benefit of comlnir Keneratlnns. It should
be considered, moreover, that nearly all
of this sum of $300,000,000 would no Into
material and mnnual labor. Employment
would bo furnished to an army of work
lnrmnn In all parts of the country. I
would have these (Treat works done by
contract, let under public competition, let
to the lowest responsible bidders, nnd
executed, of course, under government
upervlslon and Inspection."
Here we have an important and vex
atious subject covered within the com
pass of only a few words. At a time
when strong effort will be made to In
duce congress to lend the weight of the
United States government's Indorse
ment to a seml-prlvato canal specula
tion In a distant land, It would be ex
ceedingly opportune for the formula
tion of a bill along the lines which
Senator Quay suggests. In this, as in
other matters, it should not be forgot
ten that true charity begins at home.
The interests of commerce demand the
construction of several new inter-state
canals; but congress has hitherto stood
still in the matter, because congress
has not always been wise in its collec
tion and expenditures of public
moneys. Now, however, when it is pos
sible to kill three birds with one stone
that is to say, build the canals, give
employment to labor and at the same
time protect home industry It would
appear to be very shortsighted not to
take aim and let the stone fly. The
truth is that Senator Quay has given
another modest Illustration of his
habitual penetration and sagacity.
;Oeeral Workhardl will overcome
General Apathy every time.
Bartl for Surveyor.
The career of Edmund Bartl, Repub
lican) catnidAdaite for county surveyor,
signally Illustrates what grit, pluck
and perseverance can accomplish in
this land of free Institutions and open
opportunities. Mr. Bartl is self-made
and self-educated. For what he is to
nkiy he owed no main but himself.
Coming to Scranton a mere boy, with
out money or Influential friends, he set
to work to better his condition and
make himself worthy of American clt
isenshlp. -How well he hag succeeded
li vividly shown In his high profet
leul b4 ttuauMM sun dins and in
his personal popularity among all
classes.
There Is absolutely no question of Mr.
Bartl's fitness for the orllee of county
Burveyor. JIIs qualifications for il.hat
exacting line of work have been amply
demonstrated during the long period
In which he has successfully transact
ed private surveying and engineering
business. Ho Is In no sense an experi
ment. His substantial recommenda
tions cover every phase of the civil en
gineer's duties. This fact commends
bis candidacy to all who believe In the
public recognition of demonstrated
merit; nnd the Indications are that ho
will be elected, one week from today,
by a largo plurality.
The Impression f hait i!ihe fag end of a
century lis a time for 1iroMs and wars
gains eoinllmiaukTii by tine la.rge quamlll-
ty of wair talk Ju-tft now current among
the European, correppom dents; 'but It
needs to be rvinombcrcd. In lTOterpreitl!:n.jr
their eflusflons, tiluit they get pa'id for
that sort of thing.
Is Herring Yet Safe ?
It Js an Interesting rumor which
conies from Yasihjlnig.ton. to the effect
that whKe.Mir. IMiHer, the commissioner
of Ithe (Internal revenue department, Is
disposed to apply the white wusl) brunh
to the charges of Mr. Burke against
Collector Herring, Secretary Carlisle,
Who, far the first place, opj;osed Mr.
Heprtog's appointment and .was over
ruled 'by t'he ipreaJi'ent, t the Interces
sion of .Mr. .Harrlty, Insists with a good
dean of emphasis upon a full, fair and
public invostlgatilon, conducted with
out fear or favor; and that 'his Influence
Is at Mr. Burke's command it the latter
gentleman can put his charges Into pre
sentable form.
'e give 'Mils as a rumor merely and
assume .no respon!ibUllty In connec
tikm with It; and yet It Is of pu'bllc Inter
est to say that pi'ivajteaidvlces from the
caipiitial aippear to lend substance to lit.
It 'Is well-known in the tinner political
circles of "Washington that Secretary
Carlisle and iMir. iMl'Iler are at variance
with .reference to several details of pol
icy, and that Uhe former is of tne be
lief tlia,t when charges are made
ag'ailnst a ipubllc ofllcial occupying a
trust of the 'Importance of the district
collectorehlp of Internal revenue, there
Is but one way to meet 'tlhem, an'Ji that
Is In tho full light of open day, with
out let or 'hindrance of any fashion
whatsoever. The fact that in. the case
tin point, the hearing was furtilve, mys
terious and secret, and that the prose
cution, it we may so call Mr. Burke's
side, was hindered, rather tihan ailded,
would appear to justify the expectation
tlhiait Secretary Carlisle would, upon ap
peal, reopen the case and demand a
thorough sifting of .It.
From any tan.diKln't thils would a.p
ptar to be desirable. The secrecy of
the original Inquiry ttenUs 'Inevltn.bly to
discredit the verdict's fairness. There
la a general desire In itlhila revenue dis
trict to have t'he 11 d lifted and to lot
the public peep inside.
In one week nnd a day the suspense
will all be over, and the Democracy will
again question Itself why it thought
It could fool Republican Pennsylvania.
Dr. Longstreet for Coroner.
There is one fact concerning the can
didacy of Or. Samuel P. longstreet for
coroner, on the Republican ticket,
which la drawing to his support a largo
number of voters not ordtlnarlly influ
enced by irarty tiusv That Is 'his conr
ceded ability as a physician, and tils
sterling private character.
His punctuality in responding to pro
fessilanail calls, his knowledge of
uneni amdl of .books .treating of
tihe art of healing, and Into
personal amiability have counted
for him in this campaign, not noisily,
perhaps, but effectually. Dr. Long
street 18 a man who entertains a high
opinion of t'he dignity and usefulness of
his vocation in life; and as coroner he
would act, root 'perfunctorily, .but con
scientiously, having ta proper regard
for the ofllce's .possible importance as
an aid to Justice.
Thatamancf this character could ele
vate the coroncrsihd.p wll not be doubt
ed by those familiar With Its careless
conduct In many localities. It J tho
neglect or oareleaness of those Charged
with the performance of ts duties which
baa called forth, in a number of states, a
demand for tho ofllce's abolition.
Properly filled, It lis an office of real
value to tlhe oomimunlty, as Dr. Long
street's term will prove.
Lackawanna Republicans will not
permlH tlhemselves to be caught in tho
Democratic "stilll ihunt" net. They will
vote to a man, next Tuesday, anil vote
the straight tfokeC '
A Home Testimonial.
The Cleveland World recently ad
dressed letters to leading manufactur
ers asklnig them how they are satisfied
with the present, or Wilson-Gorman,
tariff. Among its replies It publishes
the following from a prominent manu
facturer of this city:
"Upon the passage of the Wilson bill,
we were obliged to reduce the wages of
our men to-the very lowest possible
point which would subsist them, and
their wages remained tut this low point
until tlhe Republican victories last fall
measurably restored the confidence of
the people that the Democrats were
powerless to further Injure the busi
ness of the country. The influence of
the Wilson 'tariff upon business was to
Increase competition by the Introduc
tion of foreign gooU's to a larger extent
than before its passage, and reduce the
amount of our business and the profits
from H. Wages have not been restored
to the point at which they wtood before
the reduction caused 'by the agitation
of the Wilson, bill and the number of
men which we employ at the present
rate Is about thalf of what we formerly
employed. It was only by strenuous
efforts of our Pennsylvania Senator,
Quay, that our business was preserved
from total destruction, by a modifica
tion of the clause of the tariff which
affected our business, wttildh permitted
us to exist, although it destroyed our
profits. If existence .is a blessing with
out happiness, the Wilson blH Is toler-
ble to us, end .preferable to the de
struction which tJhey first proposed In
it We live now in 4iopes that the next
congress will restore such a measure
of protection as iwt'ljwaaTan't some en
Joymont of our ,the way of
.profit." - V-
tes
timonial to tlhe dangerous and damag
injf i:ielllclr..,y of this Democratic ad
ministration. One week from toc7.iy
the voters of Lacka.wa.niva county will
be called upon to enter a pr.-Kmlna-ry
verdict upon that admir.Istrat!i.n, pre
paratory to the final delivcrar.oe next
year. Will thy fail to remember tho
men mho caused their wa?e3 to be cut
down and. In many lntance3, their
employment to cease?
The asscivion Is made upan appirfnt
ly good authority r.aomly, by a frl nd
of ex-St.T..3'tor l'ljlt that dui-lnpr Clio
ennvention of 1SSS Stephen H. 'Elk-Ins
Ivad In his .pcvtsoralon a letter from O a
eial Hnirison ri'mlrlng Mr. Platlt tho
treasury srcreturyFl-.u;) if l'l.V.ii would
throw the New York d-clcgati.vn to Mm
and t'hus escnre -his nomination. Is I'hvs
true?
The opinion cif W. R. Bell, formerly
editor of The Peranton Times, ai ex
pressed in an In'tervXnv in the W.uti
hijrtcm Pcet, is that Han ?tyb m U dead
In Lackawanna, couniiy; that ITeiring
will yet shave to go, and that tlw unit
rule Is a coKc of barbarism. 'Mr. Hell's
opinion's are always interesting, wheth
er aooiiiati or not.
We are rem-lniiied of ex-Governor Pat-tif-on
by seeing Ms name In print. In a
Washlnrion newspaper. And to think
that Put .I :i, who three years ago came
within -a. hair's, breadth of becoming
president of the United States, is to
day hardly a reminiscence!
It will be surprising If New Jersey
and Maryland do no return Republi
can pluralities next week. As for
Kentucky, that seems to be uncertain,
with the chances In Colonel Bradley's
favor.
Of course, Ohio is doubtful; that Is,
the'i-e Is doubt as to whether the Repub
lican plurality will tie closer to 100,000
than to 00,000.
One week from today the Republi
can who stays at homo will virtually
vote the Democratic ticket.
TRIE AMKKKAMSM.
In his speech in New York city Friday
nluht Governor Hastings paid special nl
leiitlon to the twin subjects of reeluroeltv
and foreign affaiia. Said he: "1 am of
tho opinion that one of tho important Is
sues In next year's campaign will be that
of reciprocity. Although one of the latest,
it is -mo most Important brunch that lias
been grafted upon our system of protec
tion. Through thirty-live years of protec
tion our country has grown so rapidly In
population ami dveloe.d so marvelously
ill all lines of trade, commerce, agricul
ture. In fact in every lawful oocuoatlon.
that wo have been nblo to supply not only
uie American niarKut. uut 111 ninny in
stances to ovcrslock It. Uncle Sam has
grown to be a great farmer, manufactur
er and all-round business man. Ilu raises
big eroiis.more than enough for homo con
sumption. He generally has a surplus to
sell. As a manufacturer he bents the
world, und pays his employes, skilled nnd
unskilled, higher and better wages than
are paid In any other country In the
world. His manufacturing business has
grown so steadily nnd rapidly that he
sometimes has more than hu needs for
home demands. These ho Is willing to
trade off to his neighbors for some tilings
that ho may be short of. Ho needs tea,
coffee, sugar nnd other articles of house
hold use, becaiiso he can't grow them at
borne, and his people must have them.
"He used to pay gold for these neces
sities. Now he wants to trade kind for
kind. Ilu looks about and ho tinds that
among his neighbors on this side of the
Atlantic, .Mexico, Central Americn, Porto
mco, lirazll anil other neighboring coun
tries, he hns been pnylng annually In
guild about fciliO.OOO.OOO for what they have
and which he needs. He finds also thnt
ho has a surplus of almost everything
that his neighbors require, but while be
is buying from them &!HO,fl00,iKX) In volume
every year, they are not buying much
more 1hnn one-fourth of that amount
from his surplus stock. Ho Is paying
the balance In gold and at the same time
Is hunting tor some other neighbor to buy
his surplus products. Home years ago he
came to the conclusion that this was not
good business, nnd he consulted one of his
leading counselors, and Mr. Illalne In
formed him that It was always good busi
ness to keep as much gold at home ns he
could conveniently, that It was always
better each year to trade off his surplus
products to his neighbors In exchange for
for what he needed than It was to pay out
gold. Uncle Ham saw the point. He notl-
lleii Hrnzll to bring on her conee nnd other
products Into our market free provided
she would allow his surplus products to
ride Into her harbors with his tlug floating
nnd his cargo free on board for our pro
ducts which they require to an eniinl
amount; but, says he, "remember this Is
privilege for privilege nnd it only lasts
whllo we nre doing business with each
other." The result was that under the
reciprocity enactment our export -trade
with Brazil, In .two years. Increased 100
per cent.; with Cuba our export trade In
creased 100 per cent.; while Cuba's trade
with France fell off nboirt GO per cent., and
Brazil's trade with Europe fell oft an av
erage of more than 40 per cent.
"Before I close I may be permitted to
remark for a few moments upon the
relations of our country to Venezuela and
Nicaragua. Notwlthstndlng the fact thnt
the 8t. James' Gazette and other British
administration papers nre continually ap-
dylng the epithet or 'demagogue' to ev
ery American citizen and newspaper thnt
chooses to give an expression of opinion
from nn American standpoint upon tn
question, I am constrained to say that
Great Itrltnln was 4he first foreign power
to coincide wltn nnd npprove the Monroe
doctrine, and In the same breath I am Im
pelled to say that with tho exception of
the unsuccessful attempt to establish
Mnxlmlllinn in Mexico and the present
trouble In Cuba, Great Britain hns been
tho only nation thnt -hns attempted to
Ignore nnd violate the Monroe doctrine.
The Monroe doctrine Is ns much a part
of our American creed ns tho Declaration
of Independence. The American people
believe in It and, regardless of party af
filiations, are disposed to defend It.
American sentiment, In my Judgment,
cnlls for a stronger and more vigorous
policy on the part of the only govern
ment rounded upon the enuaiity or man.
a nation possessing within herself all the
essential elements of self-existence. The
people of this country demand a strong
nnd comprehensive American policy thnt
will keep tho American flag afloat In tri
umph nnd in honor on every sea nnd in
every port, that will defend and protect
the American citizen If need be In tho
uttermost parts of the earth, that will lie
patient nnd Just with every other power,
but thnt will make and mnlntaln a policy
which will Insure the rights, the dignity,
tho grandeur and the future of the Ameri
can republic."
COMMENT OF THE PRESS.

Chnmbershurg Public Opinion: "Major
Everett Wnrren, president of the Republi
can lengue, following the example of Btnto
Chalrmnn Quay In his address to commit
teemen nnd party workers, has Issued a
cnll to the members of the various Re
publican clubs of the state, urging them to
action Ho summons them to aggressive
activity In the work of securing a large
majority In the state this year, as a
proper and encouraging beginning for the
great presidential campaign upon which
the country Is about to enter. No one
should delude himself with the Idea thnt
the opposition Is Idle and In hopeless con
fusion. It Is not. It has made preparation
to tnke everv advantage of the least Re
publican Indifference In any quarter, nnd
It will make more than an ordinary effort
to poll Its full vote. It fully understands
the Importance of nn effective demonstra
tion on the eve of a presidential election.
No Republican should fall to approclnti
this fact nd attend to It, so far as his
Individual dutv la concerned, that no Indi

Our contracts for spring call for about i,ooo,ood rolls. This paper will begin
