Election day, Nov. 6.
Rain or shine, on Tuesday, do your
Buty by voting the Republican ticket
Let Every Republican Vote, Tuesday.
Republicans who are Republicans
from principle, and who vote the Re
publican ticket because they believe
that, upon the whole. It la the best
practicable way to obtain good govern
ment, will readily perceive the neces
sity of attending the polls In "oft"
yean, as well as In years of high excite
ment They will understand that a po
litical party Is in many respects like an
army, which to be effective must be
supported not simply while It Is fighting
critical and decisive battles for those
occasions are naturally few but uni
formly, all ..he time. They will compre
hend that If an army were to be per
mitted to disband after every big fight
and not drill and practice and prepare
during the Intervals between those
fights, It would soon cease to be for
midable In the moment of supreme
emergency, but would become cha-
otic. Irregular and utterly unsafe as a
defense of national rights.
It ought, then, fror this brief com
parison to be clearly apparent why,
entirely aside from the personal, merits
or claims of the candidates on this
year's state and county Republican
tickets and these are probably equal
to the merits or claims of any set of
candidates that has recently asked for
Republican support It is really a duty
devolving on every believer In Repub
lican principles to go to the polls on
Tuesday next and vote the straight
ticket of his party. It is, In this view of
the case, a question of loyalty or lndef
ference to the party organization; of
loyalty or Indifference to that thing In
party government which wins victo
ries, and renders possible the execution
of the popular will. If it be worth
while to have political parties at all
and In a government like our own It Is
Impracticable to do without them It
certainly Is 'worth while to sustain
them, not simply In the few times when
great Issues are pending but all the
time, so that they may be ready1 for
emergency whenever an emergency
arises.
It is our belief that a great majority
Df the people of Pennsylvania today
prefer government , under Republican
auspices to government conducted by
"Democrats.' We believe that they would
rather have prosperous times, with
multiplying opportunities for all classes
of citizens, than hard times with labor
restricted, capital rendered profitless
and even the government of the United
States Itself unable to meet Its expenses
except by the forced, sale of Interest
bearing bonds. ., There Is no reason,
then, why those who possess, this pref
erence should not be as anxious to say
o, next Tuesday, as they apparently
were one year ago, or as they doubtless
.will be one year hence. True, we are
Hot this fall, electing congressmen or
a president; but we are getting ready to
do that, and a victory won now will be
just so much of a start toward the vic
tory which Republicanism proposes to
Mn In the national battle of 1896.
A vote for Bartl for surveyor will be
m vote against political Intolerance.
Question!.
At the elghty-elgihth annual meeting"
of the New York State Baptist "Mission
ary convention -which met last week
In Brooklyn, Mrs. . E. Wamsley read
em Instructive, paper, which ought to
open the eyes of .those well-meaning
but thoughtless Christians who seem
to think that more credit attaches to
sending (Bibles to Mie nude plckannl
nles of jrid-Aifrlca than to the giving
of food, raiment and etfuca'titon to the
costly heathen within our gates.
Mrs. Wemsley, In opening her re
marks, VhKh-we flnfl reported at-length
In the Brooklyn Eagle, spoke of the im
mense mtMlonary field west of vhe Mis
sissippi river and of the opportunities
presented In that section of the United
States for effeotlve evangelical and
missionary work. She said that In
"Wisconsin alone there are forty lan
guages and dialects vpoken. The speak
er said these people come with all their
superstitions, ignorance Inferiority of
training', lack of iChiristlan knowledge,
evils ot environment and tribal affili
ations. They are Clannish p their ways
and In the large cities' are be found
In colonies. In ii'rtlng tfl the neces
sity of none missionaries in the middle
states, Imdudftis; Pennsylvania- end
"tfetf fork, the said in one of khscoai
mining districts 'of "Pennsylvania it
had been stated that there are 80,000
aliens, who do not speak nor under
stand the English language, and whose
presence is a menace to American lib
erty and Christian morality. In citing
tlie fact that a fewihurwtred dollars had
been given In e, certain district In one
of these etatea for missionary work,
while thousands toad been sent to
China, the speaker Intimated that she
thought there were thousands nearer
home who wore grea tly In need of Chris
tian training and Instruction.
Is it possible that Mrs. Wameley is
wrong, anld that those persons are right
w"io, although oblivious to the needs of
home philanthropy, are yet very en
thusiastic and generous In their efforts
to Introduce the vices of civilisation, by
aid of waseJiips and cannon, into ori
ental countries? Is It possfble Hunt
while Luserne and Lackawanna coun
ties shelter elg'hty regiments of men,
women and children who know next to
nothing of our language, customs, laws
or religion, it Is our duty to Ignore theae
people, except at criminal court, ana
give quilting parties for the sake of the
festive Chinee? Whore does true char-
tty begin?
a vnt for Dr. Longstreet for coroner
will foe a vote In behalf of the honest
performance of public duty.
Defend the Coasts.
l... it v. ih tippd of accelerated
AluiiB
i imnrovements. to which (sena
tor Quay has recently called attention,
the next congress should give neeu i
th pnuallv pressing need ot aaequaio
and trustworthy coast fortifications.
During the paBt few months mere nas
been random talk, by newspapers and
public men, of diplomatic complica
tions with foreign powers the ending of
which may possibly involve war. With
in the period of a year the relations of
the United States with Spain, wuu
irmrinnrl nnd with France have, at va
rious times, undergone a pressure suffi
cient to Justify more than passing rei
ownm to the possibilities ot an appeal
to the sword. It Is not true that Amer
icans desire war or that they woum
sanction it except where It should seem
clearly required to defend American
rights or uphold the honor of the Amer
igo., no., Ttnt it Is true that In view of
war's possible occurrence as a result of
tho failure of peaceable negotiations
with foreign nations, we should so
fortify our great coast cities that their
many millions of exposed human
lives and their billions of dollars' worth
of exposed property would be measur
ably safe from attack by the guns of
a foreign fleet.
The plans of the war department at
Washington call for forty-four slx-teen-lnch
guns, weighing. 120 tons
apiece and capaole of throwing a sphere
of metal the size of a large pumpkin ten
miles. The cost of each of these great
guns, exclusive of mounting and inci
dental expenses, Is estimated at $140,
000 apiece, or $6,160,000 In the aggregate.
Allowing for mounting and other costs,
probably $10,000,000 would be required
to put the exposed coast line of the
United States In such a condition of de
fense that, In the event of war with a
foreign power, an Invading fleet could
do little if any damage. It is easy to
see how to a rural statesman unfamiliar
with the perils of the present practic
ally defenseless condition of our great
coast cities like New York, Boston and
San Francisco, the expenditure of this
sum on Idle guns would appear, to be a
most reprehensible bit ofnational prof
ligacy. But when such a congressman from
the interior reglons'pays'a visit, say, to
New York city, and reflects that as the
case now stands if war should be de
clared with England tomorrow, Eng
land could within two months put such
a fleet within shooting distance of tall
towered Gotham that the damage In
flicted within one block by the dis
charge of that fleet's broadsides would
pay for -these forty-four coast-defense
guns three, five, or possibly ten times
over, we suspect that he will undergo a
change of opinion. There is no excuse
for failure to provide against foreseen
emergencies. The extravagant thing
Is to neglect a precaution which would,
if taken In time, save Its cost many
times over.
One of the first duties to which the
Republican statesmanship of the next
congress should address itself, after
the Democratic deficit Bhall be pro
vided for by the restoration of an ade
quate protective tariff, will be the prob
lem of Insuring the property along Its
now jeaporded coasts by the erection
and maintenance of proper coast forti
fications. .
We can easily credit the report that
.Secretary Carlisle doesn't see how the
treasury deficit can be cured without
restoring protection. Neither do the
American people.
An Instructive Exhibit.
Seldom has the fruit of Democratic
eoonomlo folly been so eloquently Illus
trated as In the official report, of our
foreign trade for the nine months ended
Sept 30, which has just been issued.
That report shows an excess of Imports
of merchandise of $43,052,276, and an ex
cess of exports of gold of $44,350,343. The
two Items, therefore, almost exactly
balance each other, while for the corre
sponding nine months of 1894 an excess
of exports of merchandise was reported
amounting to $73,028,234.' Here we have
a net loss of foreign trade equal to
$116,180,510; In other words, we have,
under Democracy's tariff, the unsat
isfactory spectacle of the purchase by
Americana of $43,032,278 worth of for
eign goods which ought to have been
manufactured at home, and further
more the loss of the sale of $73,028,234
worth of home-made goods which, un
der the reciprocity clause' of the Mc
Klnley tariff, we used to sell to foreign
countries.
It does not require elaborate comment
to bring the meaning of these figures
home. They help materially to explain
why the second Cleveland administra
tion, with its bungling efforts at tariff
revision, has been an era of unexampled
depression, the hurtful effects of which
have penetrated to every avenue of
business and precipitated needless sac
rifice upon every American cltisen. And
they abundantly sustain the, Republi
can contention that the pathway to
prosperity leads to the door of the pro
tected home Industry, which, under the
nurture of adequate tariffs, thrives so
that Ha surplus products nay profita
bly be sold abroad. In this manner the
balance of trade sends gold flowing Into
the country, and not, as under the pres
ent regime, out of It.
Chairman Wellington, of Maryland,
reiterates his charge of ' treachery
against Senator Quay, but refuses to
disclose the proof. It seems to us that
the public would now be Justified In
supposing Mr. Wellington to be the vic
tim of a (diseased imagination.
As the case now stands, It would. In
the event of war, take a foreign fleet
about five minutes to make kindling
wood of one-half of New York city;
and the defences In Boston harbor
aren't much better.
The Republicans of Maryland, If they
have any hope ot winning next Tues
day's battle, should lose no time In en
forcing a rule of closure on the speaking
apparatus of their state chairman.
In Luzerne county the political battle
seems to have been temporarily u
pended so as to enable the various par
tisans to view the more exciting scrap
between the Leader and the Record.
The fact that the Kentucky cam
paign t.as reached the pistol etage af
fords proof that the Democracy Is gut
tling desperate.
If Gorman slhould keep 'Maryland un
der hCa thumb by use of the irace scare,
It would be a black dhame.
Bill Nye seems to have received at

rm&UVAftiA A I ATLANTA.
Colonel McClurc, In Philadelphia Times.
1 have witnessed every Industrial expo
sition held in tne soutn ulnce the wur, ami
Bpcuk uuviiiL-dly when i say thut the plea
tint fxpomtlon in At.unlu is lnconijurabiy
thu beat that has ever been presented m
that section. It inuluatus the hiKh water
mark of Industrial and commercial pro
gress that has been attained slnue the
universal prostration of the south by the
civil conflict, and the enertjy exhibited by
ail classes and conditions in tho beautiful
city of Atlanta, eloquently tells the story
of the substantial advancement in thut
section. Atlanta is the heart of Oeorgla,
whose pulsations reach out Into the re
motest regions of that great common,
wealth, and tho progress of Georgia, tho
Empire state of the south, has done much
to quicken tho revival of prosperity
throughout the whole reconstructed re
gion. When 1 visited the first exposition
held In Atlanta, in 1882, the general re
vival of industry and commerce In the
south was only In Its Infancy, but today
the people of the north can see In this
great center of southern advancement
how rapid and substantial are the at
tained results of the renewed energies of
tho southern people.
:o:
It has been falsely stated In some of the
northern papers that visitors to the At
lanta exposition are swindled in evesy
possible way by hotels, boarding houses,
hacks, etc. These statements are grossly
unjust to the people of Atlanta. Excel
lent accommodations can be had from the
best hotels down to the chenpest boarding
houses at entirely reasonable rates, and
anv visitor can reach the exposition
grounds from any part of the city in a
first-class street car for the single fare f
five cents. Indeed, so far from attempt
ing to extort from visitors, the people of
Atlanta seem to have united their efforts
to extend tho most generous hospitality to
all who shall come to meet them on thnlr
beautiful exposition grounds. No one
should be hindered from visiting Atlanta
because of the fear of extortion.
The Atlanta exposition Is most advan
tageously located In the suburban part of
the city, and Its various departments can
be studied with Interest and profit day
after day by the Intelligent visitor. While
It is peculiarly a southern enterprise ev
ery state of the union Is represented In
it, and it presents in brief the matchless
progress of the whole country. With the
limited resources of the south It Is mar
velous how complete .the exposition has
been made. The exhibit of the general
government, while not so elaborate, Is
quite as creditable as that given at Chi
cago, and there Is a repetition of the Mid
way Plalsance of Chicago on a smaller
scale, where nearly every condition and
class of the world Is presented. The wo
men of the nation have achieved a con
nlnuous success by their efforts to add
Interest to the exposition. They have
fully demonstrated how greatly they can
contribute to the achievements of such an
enterprise. Pennsylvania, along with near
ly all the states of the north, has a
beautiful house, erected by the state com
miuainn. nuil on Its loftv nortlno the old
Liberty Bell holds dally and nightly le
vees. It IS one oi ine lew unimn mm
commands homage from every nation and
every clime.
:o:
Th mint rratlfvinff lesson of the At
lanta exposition is In the development of
the wonderrui advancement me aoumeru
nanniA hnvn made In Industrial economies.
Before the war the south was divided Into
two classes those who ruled and those
who served. The one was born to mas
tery, and the other to servitude, whether
white or black, and there was then no
need for diversified Industries or for the
development of new sources of wealth.
The result was that the waste of the
south would nave rea anu cioinen aounu
.niiu her mlilillit nnd noorer classes. Ne
cesslty has taught the south what phllos
onhv and statesmanship would have
in tarh them In generations. To
day we see represented in the Atlanta ex
position how marvolously new products
havA haen created, and especially how
minutely the economies of Industry are
used to reap tne runei rewtms oi unpum
and labor in everything produced. This
is the foundation of southern prosperity,
arid It has become so well established, as
Is Illustrated by the exposition, that the
advancement of those states must greatly
Increase In momentum trom year 10 year,
nn.i thora are those living today who will
see the south more generally prosperous
than the prpftt stntes of the north which
now overshadow both south and west in
wealth ana general prosperity.
:o:
The people of the north should give
generous pairnnsge 10 ine aunnn
sltlon. Our industries, our commerce, our
financial Interests and our general busi
ness and social Intercourse, have become
an Intimately Interwoven with the people
of the south that all sectional feeling has
fueled awsv, and both have learned that
they can mutually eniBrge ineir pronprr
lly by mutual Intercourse. The steady and
Inrrmaa nf wealth In the south
ern states makes them most desirable
customers in every une oi cmnm-rcu mm
trade. Aside from the patriotic considers

It seems that the people of this country
are expected to say nothing and do noth

Cuban freedom from Spanish brutality
go by default. Now that Duve

VOTE FOR OrTlONGSTREET.
From tho Olyphnnt Record.
The Increnelns population of this county
makes ever larger demand on the coroner,
and for this reason the clllca should be
tllied by a man of ability uml principle In
order to guard the Intertsts of the people.
Good sense, a conscientious regard for
what is rlirlit and medical skill ore all
required In tho man who is called upon to
docido and Investigate such deaths us
demand his attention. Thus It Is clear
that very Important Interests are de
pendent upon the way this ofilee la filled,
and Its duties performed. It Is well
known thot Dr. Longslreet Is possessed
of the qualifications that will enable him
to 1111 the coroner's olllce with honor to

The New Laureate.
From the Philadelphia Iteord. ,
Whether or not poetaster Alfred Aus
tin Is really In Premier Salisbury's eye
ns the next poet laureate of England,
there can be no doubt as to the bartl who
deserves the bays last worn by tha dead
Tennyson. No poet In all the English
speaking world today can for an Instant
challenge his title to the laurels. The
award of the time-honored court title
even to such an Inspired singer as William
Watson would be an Insult to the supreme
living master of English prosody and
poesy. If either Alfred Austin or Kdwln
Arnold shall be adorned with peacock
plumage, it will he no worse than a relapse
to the reign of Tate. Tho English people
will still hall Bwlnhnrno as the laurente;
but It would be pitiful. Indeed, to behold
Britannia, like the bewitched Tltanla,
crowning with laurels another Nick Bot
tom. TOLD BY THE STARS.
