. The Local Result.
Despite the light vote, yesterday was
a field day for the Republican party
In Lackawanna county. Returns re
ceived up to midnight indicated a plur
ality for Haywood for state treasurer
of 1600; for Longstreet for coroner of
1800 and for Bartl for surveyor of from
900 to 1200. The vote cast for Judge
Wlllard Is in excess of Haywood's vote
.l)jr more than 2600, giving him a plur
ality over the Democratic average vote
of nearly 4000. Judge Smith runs well
ahead of his ticket, and judging from
the returns throughout the state will
come very close to being the minority's
choice for Superior court Judge. His
closest competltlors appear to be
Judges Yerkes and Noyes. -
The result upon the whole Is well cal-

natural apathy pertaining to an off
year waB only one of tho difficulties
they have had to contend with. Added
to that was the organized effort of cer
tain influences claiming kinship with
Republicanism to defeat the local Re
publican ticket in the hope of striking
at certain Republican leaders who gave
that ticket loyal support The fine vote
proffered to Judgor "Wlllard Is a signal
compliment not less to the discernment
and courtesy of the voters than to tho
Judge himself; while the vote to Judgo
Smith Is a testimonial of neighborly
esteem which no Republican will be
grudge. The cJttatek on Dartl was a despicable
one, whlfh 'thoroughly deserved to lo.ie,

The Middle Course.
' It Is significant that Republican ora
tors who during the recent campaign
have spoken concerning the tariff ques
tion have in no instance advocated the
adoption by the next congress of rad
ical measures looking toward the re
storation of protection. Little or noth
ing has been said In favor of a high tar
iff, as that term was .once understood
in American politics. On the contrary
the general opinion was well expressed
by Governor Hastings in a speech at
Cleveland last Saturday evening, when
he said, paraphrasing one of Lincoln's
droll remarks, that the tariff, like a
man's legs, ought to be "long enough to
reach to the ground;" that Is, that it
ought to be sufficient to protect home
Industry and raise the required amount
of government revenue, In which caso
It would be ample.
We think that this moderation of
Statement with reference to future leg
islative policy is wise. There are two
extreme positions with reference to tar
iff legislation, one of which Is about as
objectionable to ho great rhasp of
voters as the other Is. It Is not a fair
Inference that because the people of the
United States have pronounced by an
unequalled majority againBt the Cleve
land Idea of tariff reform, or practically
free trade, they are minded to try the
opposite experiment of ultra protection.
There Is a strong sentiment permeating
all classes of citizens, and especially the
Dullness men, In favor of a conserva
tive middle course, which, while not
forgetting due protection to all legiti
mate forms of home industry, to the
point of safeguarding It against ruinous
Importations, is nevertheless so near
the line of actual difference In labor
costs, here and abroad, as to preclude
the likelihood of artificial combinations
having for their purpose the exacting
of unfair prices. It was to this moder
ate sentiment, which thought It was
overlooked In the framing of the Mc
Klnley bill, that Republicans owe their
defeat In the congressional elections of
1S90 and their loss" of the presidency two
years later; Just as It was to. It that the
Democrats, falling to interpret correct
ly those two elections, ;nd thereby Im
pelled to radical attempts In an oppo
site direction, owe their phenomenal
disaster of one year ago. '
At this time there Is also another sen
timent, which needs to be taken Into
consideration. It. ,4s- 4iie -sentiment
which, Without going vert deep Into the
causes of things, opposes what Is called
"tariff tinkering" on general princi
ples. It would oppose such action now,
even If the tinkering -er needed;. It
would oppose It on stne ground,lhat it
would Introduce into the business prob
lem and uncertain new factors. This
sentiment Is strong enough to make it at
dangerous thing for the Republican
party to try to effect any radical
changes in the present tariff schedules.
Hence the best course to pursue, for the
present, will be to remedy the Demo
cratic deficit by relmposlng protective
duties on wool and' woolens, pottery.
glass and certain agricultural products.
and leave the remainder of the Wilson-
Gorman bill to be overhauled at a more

The Result in New York City.
(Ftp Mvo defeat of the Fusion and
I'he success of the Tammany ticket in
New York city ytat'erday many causes
can be assigned. In the first plaice, it
marks the 1in.1vItsa.bI0 reccdl of senti

be sustained by a city containing with

are to be found In Sfc.w York.
Another rclason for the defeat Is to be
found in it1? limp and gingerly manner

to say where 4t ctawda on the senator.

point out 'that If it'toee wiho oro op

sjr.utor Intend tto make illhelr opposition
effective they iwlIJ liava to organize
and agree on some prominent, accept
able and popular Republican es fhe'Ir
candMa'te. This. Is precisely iihe argu
ment advanced by th Soianton Trib
une weeks'ago.
The situation, briefly' summed up.
is as follows: csenator Cameron is a
oandklci'.e for another iterm. His
friends are in earnest, are thoroughly
organized, and have their plan of cam-
paOgn. What ' that plan is every well
Informed Ileputbllicuh k no w3. Cameron
and Sils adihcrents make no boasts and
Indulge In no loud professions of what
they will do. At this time t'hey are
taylns no'.lhlng, but they are net idle.
AVhile the opponents wf tire senior sena
tor are loudly dvorylng him and pro
testing against ihil re-election, he and
his fiCeiniJuaire qu'I'otJy selecting men for
scnuiturs and 'representatives 'In the
leffltlatuire next year. In this particu
lar line of work Cameron seldom makes
any mistakes. In antl-Canncron dis
tricts ho will select men who are not
h'.s pronounced supporters, in public
but wtoo are secretly pledged to him.
Whatever financial assistance t'hey
may Tcqul.re tv secure nou-nlnatlon and
elect'lon will bo supplied them. In Cam
eron districts no eucih precautions aro
neccasary, r -
Senator Cameron will enter upon his
batltle for' another term with decided
advantages over his opponents. The
eta'lo 0rg.y1Jza.tk1n of tine Republican
party is friendly to htm. Challirman
Quay lias neither by word nor act In
dicated' that his ifolendly relations with
Caimeiron Have been Interrupted. That
an alliance, offensive and defensive,
exists between itho two senatora there
is every reason to believe. Undar such
ciTcumitances It may well be believed
that Senator Cameron regards tiho sit
uation with itihe utmost compla'dency,
and has little apprehension as to the
nsult d his battle for re-eleotion.
The senIOT senator will not be daslly
beaten. He cannot be beaten ait all
unlets those 'Republicans Who axe op
posed to him organize and cordially
unite on corns Republican of thehlg'hest
standing in Ills party, and who will
be acceptable to all who are dn favor
of ttetirilng Senator Cameron to private
life. .Cameron iwitlhout the support of
Quay would have no chance at all; with
Quay's support he will be as strong as
Quay himself for the tetter's fallowing
will do whatever their ' leader directs.
That has been demonstrated again and
again.
That a very largo majority of Re
publicans are opposed to Cameron's re
turn to the senate Is indisputable. The
opposition to him Is apparent every
where, and is overwhelming. If the
question of his re-election we're sub
mitted to la "popular vote of Ills party
he would be beaten out of sight Cam
eron's friends will look after the con
ventions that next year nominate can
didates for the legislature. Thery will
see to It 'hat there are no instructions
on the senator eh lo. If it becomes nec
essary Caimeron will not 'hesitate to re
peat Isold ttfiicJc of miking an equivo
cal announcement of -wltindrawai, as he
has dons on more tDhan one occasion
in the past, 1n order to disarm opposi
tion. That is a trick that has served
him well heretofore. When the
bers of .the legislature shall toave been
elect! then he will Vturow- off the mask,
as he did in 1890.

WASHINGTON GOSSIP.
Special to the Scranton Tribune.
Washington, .Nov. 6.-A little less than

the two preceding congresses the ltepubll-
cani were In a hopeleaa minority, in the
Klfty-aecond con Kress they oniy had SO
members, and In the Fifty-third some
thing ovor low out of a total of 3M. In the
next, or Fifty-fourth congress, the Re
publicans will have 244 members, the Dem
ocrats 111, tho Poulista (J, and the Bliveritoa
only 1, The tatter's ntmu and address Is
Krancls U. Newlands, of Reno, Nov. He
was first elected In 1892, and was re-elected
In 1SV!. He is a MlBslSHippian by birth,
but went to California when a young
man, where he practiced law until 188!,
when he became a trustee of the estate of
William Sharon, formerly United States
senator from Nevada. He has been ac
tively engaged In the agitation of the sil
ver question for years. Mr, Newlands Is
very wealthy and expects some day to
represent his adopted state In the upper
brunch of congress.
While discussing tile third party mom
bers of congress It would probably be in
teresting to know something about the
other six gentlemen who will not affiliate
with either of the old parties on the ques
tion of finance. I will not attempt to give
their biographies at length. In the call of
states Alabama leads off with M. W. How
ard, who was elected as a Populist in the
Seventh district. - Howard was, until a
year or two ago, a clerk In one of the de
partments In this city. He is the man
who wrote "If Christ Came to Congress."
The book did not make the hit the author
imagined it vfouW, and only a limited
number of copies were sold. Howard, be
coming disgusted at his failure as a writer,
became a sore head and finally landed In
the Populist party, and was taken up by
hla Alabama constituents and sent to con
(tress. Whether his coming to congress
will create as much of a furore as "if
Christ Came to Congress" is a question
that will probably never ba settled.
The next is John C.' Bell, of Colorado.
Mr. Bell was first elected to the house In
1S92. He was originally a Democrat, and
It was with that party's assistance that
he was electea. He Is still a Democrat In

some of the fantastic touch of Hood, he

his adaptations from the classics reveal a

LITTLE BUY BLUE.
The little toy dog is covered with dust,

And the little toy soldier Is red with rust,
And his musket moulds in his hands.
Time was when tho little toy dog was new
And the soldier was passing fair,
And that was the tuno when our Llttlo
Boy Blue
Kissed them and put them there.
"Now, don't you go till I come," he raid,
"And don't you make any noise!"
So, toddling off to his trundle bed,
Ho dreamt of the pretty toys.
And as he was dreaming an angel song
Awakened our Little Roy Blue
Oh, the years are many, tho years are
long.
But the little toy friends are true.
Ay, faithful -to Little Boy Blue they stand,
Kaeh In the same old place,
Awaiting the touch of a little hand,
The smile of a little face.
And they wonder, as waiting these long

In the dust of that little chair,
What has become of our Littlo Boy Blue
Since he kissed them and put them thert.
