Senator Quay's written denial of the
charge thut he ever helped Gorman,
Hrice or any other Demorrat was not
needed; but it will look well as a mat
ter of record.
Republican Strength.
An esteemed contemporary suggests
that It will be next to 'impossible for
the Republicans to nominate for the
presidency next year a man who could
not be elected, or who would be even
In dancer of defeat. 'While there is
no denial of the fart that the Republi
can party has at no time during the
period of its existence been in a more
hopeful condition than it is at the pres
ent time, nevertheless ouch reasonltiR
as our contemporary indulges in is ill
advised, and untimely. The Republi
can party is not so much stronger than
herotofore, as appears on the surface;
the fact Instead is rather that the Dem
ocratic party is very much weaker.
The enormous majorities rolled up by
the Republican party since 1893 nro
not the result of an Increased Republi
can vote, but of a frightfully dimin
ished Democratic vote.
This idea that tho Republicans can
next year elect to the presidency any
one they may choose to nominate is a
proposition that should not be encour
aged, and will not be In any sensible
quarter. The clearly denned duty of
the Republican party is to nominate
the strongest, ablest and most popular
man for president, and for the vice
presidency a man in all respects the
equal 'of tho head of the ticket. The
country never expected more from the
Republican party than it does at this
time, and this is no time for the lead
ers of that party to disappoint the
country. The Republican tidal wave
that has just swept over the country,
engulfing even several Southern states,
Elves promise of easy success next
year, but that promise is conditioned
on the Republican party deserving suc
cess. In the selection of a candidate for
president next year the Republican
leaders will do well to give due consid
eration to popular sentiment In their
party, thereby retaining the confidence
that already exists. Great as are tho
advantages tho Republican party has
grained since the Cleveland administra
tion came Into power, it. will not do for
the party leaders to assume that "any
body can be elected to the presidency
next year on tho Republican ticket,"
There is no probability that the na
tional convention of the Republican
party will nominate any one who can
not bo elected, but it behooves that
bofiy to be just as prudent and wise
in . making a nomination as if there
were tho gravest doubt of success.
The Republican party Is all right at
this time; the people are manifestly
determined to restore It to cdmplete
power In the national government.
This should inspire the party leaders
with' tho determination to deserve the
confidence of the country in a greater
measure than ever before.
The theory li now get forth that Mr.
Cleveland's enemies want to nominate
him for a third term, in order to kill
him off. If they unite on this aim they
will be pretty nearly sufliclent in num
bers to accomplish it.
Occupying Broad Ground.. .
Replying to p. contemporary which
criticized its custom of permitting edi
torial contributors to sign their .names
to , articles for publication, the Chi
cago Times-Herald, which, under the
liberal policy pursued by Its new own
er and editor, Mr. Kohlsaat. has rapidly
become the most readable and the most
quotable newspaper in the United
States, lays down the following broad
gauged principles:
"No newspaper Is so groat in the
public estimation that its interest and
its influence cannot be enhanced by
the contributions of acknowledged
specialists In art, 'drama, literature,
politics, science, international law or
any other branch of knowledge; and
the personal equation of tho writer
is of positive value to the reader of
anecdotes, reminiscences and stories of
travel and adventure. In admitting
the signed contribution the editor does
not abdicate or even share his thiono
with another. The editorial and tho
signed contribution each stands on its
own merits and the intelligent reader
gives due weight to each. A difference
in the point .of view .constitutes a new
claim to attention; but even if the point
of view is the same, a side light and
above all authenticated informatlrfn fa
ever welcome. - A well conducted news
paper nowadays expresses lts'-own
opinions In its editorial columns, with
out claiming omniscience br' Infallibil
ity, and without invoking supersti
tious deference to the editorial 'we,'
and It Is quite willing to present in its
columns variety In subject, opinion and
treatment, with due recognition of the
pedal contributor as an Important
factor In Journalistic success. " This
feature of signed articles on the.effllor
lal pags . will not be abandoned, jon
the contrary, the largest , hospitality
1111 be offered to lie ijMtf 41sUtT
guished writers on topics of living In
terest. If a writer has already made
a good name he shall not be deprived
of it by any act of ours; If a writer can
make a name for himself by work of
individual distinction for the Times
Herald he shall have a niche of his own
and welcome."
One of tho commonest mistakes In
life Is that the success of one man nec
essarily means tho failure of another.
The old habit among newspapers of
fighting- against the display of individ
uality among their employes, on the
ground that it weakened the pajiers,
is happily becoming obsolete. Liberal
men like Mr. Dana in New York and
Mr. Kohlsaat in Chicago know bet
ter and do better than this. They are
not afrnld that their own laurels will
fade because their subordinates get
credit as well as pay for doing bright
things.
Mr. Dana thinks that David 13. Hill
will again make his way to the sur
face; and considering Hill's lack of
scruples we guess that Mr. Dana is
right. '
First-class Base Ball.
The engagement of Manager McDer
mott by the new owners of the Scran
ton base ball club was effected yester
day In n business-like manner, and It Is
probable that all reasonable discretion
will be nccordod to him in the details
of gathering together a team of win
ning players and in the provision of
adequate grounds and accommoda
tions. While It may not be possible to
secure a nennant-wlnnlng club In one
year, especially after most of the best
players have already been reserved by
the other clubs for next season. It ought
to be possible with proper brains, dis
cipline and enterprise on. the part of
the management to make a decided ad
vance over the local records of the past
two or three years.
Flrst-class.encrsJtlc ball-playing will
win games in Scranton just as easily as
elsewhere. The refusal to tolerate
favoritism or to carry along ossified
players who have outlived their day and
generation will form a winning policy
here no loss than. It has In other live
American cities. Ambitious playing by
players more anxious to win games
than to stand high in the individual
records will attract attendance and
lllclt admiration as readily in this city
as in any other locality where the na
tional game Is played. If Manager Mo
Dermott Is the man who can combine
these various elements of success his
career in Scranton, under the auspices
of the men who now own the Scranton
franchise, will be a flattering one. If
he is not, we have enough confidence in
the new ownership to believe that he
will, after a fair trial, be replaced by
one who can.
At all events it Is fair cause for satis
faction that thero is at least a good
prospect for the playing of a profes
sional ball club under the name of
"Scranton" which will not prove a
source of humiliation to the city and a
reason for popular disgust with the
best of all out-door sports.
Pennsylvania's message to Atlanta Is
one of peace and good fellowship. Penn
sylvania, as the backbone of the loyal
north, is heartily glad to aid by its
counsel and presence any enterprise
tending to strengthen and develop the
capital city of the New South.
The Next Convention.
Vi'e trust that the assertion Is not
true that a quorum of Republican
leaders, including Senator Quay, have
decided, in case Pittsburg's candidacy
shall fail, to favor San Francisco as the
site of the Republican national conven
tion. To hold the convention as far
west as that would not only bo to make
it a sectional affair, but It would also
be equivalent to , depriving three
fourths of the voters of the Republican
party of any chance of attending.
Worse than that, it would rob nine
tenths of the readers of tho newspa
pers of the prlvlege of reading about
the convention and Its work on the
morning of the following day, San
Francisco being for practical purposes
beyond the range of prompt telegraph
ic communication..
The proper location of the conven
tion, to be sure, is Pittsburg. Pitts
burg is a central location, has adequate
hotel and press facilities and is the
metropolis of a territory which has,
in modesty and patience, supplied rous
ing Republican pluralities long enough
to be at last entitled to share in some
of the party honors. But if for any
reason it shall be found necessary to
send the convention to a city other than
Pittsburg, the only remaining place
worthy of consideration s Chicago,
and to Chicago it should go. With ref
erence to Chicago there are no elements
of dubiousness. Her hotel accommo
dations are ample; she has the largest
convention hall In the country; her
train and press facilities are unsur
passed; and lastly her people are not
Inexperienced in the knack of enter
taining visiting multitudes.
Under no circumstances, then, should
the choice fall upon San Francisco. If
not Pittsburg, by all means Chicago.
Warner Miller is right when he says
that Tammany's victory in New York
Is Yeally no victory at all. Tammany
only gained 10,000 votes over last year.
If 59,000 citizens of Gotham had not
staid away from the polls last Tuesday
Tammany's small plurality would In
all probability have been nowhere. The
one real victory won In New York last
week was won by Warner Miller, who
wisely declined to let the Republican
party lose sight of the one vital princi
pal involved in the state campaign,
and who, In consequence, was grandly
sustained by the incorruptible and in
defatigable majority in the state-at-large.
New Form of Highway Robbery.
The recent consolidation of the street
car lines of Philadelphia into one giant
company under tho management of
that former Scrantonlan, J. R. Beetem,
was hardly effected before the direct
ing owners of the consolidated corpor
ation decided to abolish transfers and
make passengers pay a separate fare
for every car occupied by them. This
announcement has evoked a storm of
popular protest. Inasmuch as It Is
equivalent in many cases to the doub
ling of worklngroen's fares; but the
management ooolly points to the fact
that under the terms of the company's
charter, voted to it by councilman
probably, .well under Traction 1 Influ
ences, there is no clause restricting the
price of fares.
Some of the papers of Philadelphia
take this fact deeply to heart; but we
prefer the attitude of the Record,
which, with Spartan fortitude, re
marks: "The grant of trolley priv
ileges, without reservation on the part
of the city as to rates of fare, was
made by councils, for whom the voters
are wholly responsible. How can the
people consistently complain of acts
done by the railway companies In pur
suance of grants of power conferred by
the people's own chosen representa
tives? Is it not as clear as noonday
thut the remedy for the municipal
grievances of which such complaint Is
made begins at home? The voter
when he goes to the polls arranges the
kind of public service he is to get from
corporations. If he doesn't like It let
him change It. The power lies in his
own hands."
It Is probable that this anr.Iety of the
new trolley combine to get a grip on
the purses of the people will have the
unintended effect of spurring on the
work of the Andrews Investigating
committee which Is charscd, among
other things; with the duty of ascer
taining how far corporate influence has
affected the work of the Philadelphia
councils. In such an event. It may be
the unconscious means of leading the
people up to a remedy for the very
abuses from which they now suffer. It
is certain that public sentiment is
aroused; and it will be singular Indeed,
If the brigand tactics with which so
many cities are nowadays afTlli'ted by
reason of unguarded municipal trol
ley grants shall nut in the long run
Inspire their own cure.
Mr. Bayard may not like America.
His preferences at least are his own.
But so long as America pays, for his
meat and potatoes it strikes us that a
refined sense of propriety ought to
cause htm to repress his Inclination
to slander and traduce America before
foreign audiences.
This Year's ilajorlties.
The Philadelphia Press yesterday
contained an interesting table Bhowing
the majorities In 1893, 1894 and 1895, in
the states where elections were held last
week. These states are Massachusetts,
New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania,
Marylund, Ohio, Kentucky, Iowa, Ne
braska and Kansas. While the major
ities last week In most cases fell far
below the abnormal figures of 1894, they
by far exceeded those of 1893. In these
states combined the aggregate major
ity in the three years named was as fol
lows: In 1893 339.327
In 1894 758,293
In 1893 808,717
It was not expected that In New York,
Pennsylvania and Ohio the unnatural
mjorlties of 1894 would be repeated In
1895. Maryland and Kentucky were re
deemed this year and add some 36,000 to
the aggregate majority.whlle Nebraska
and Kansas exceeded last year's major
ities. These figures demonstrate the
correctness of the claim that tho popu
lar demand for the restoration of the
Republican party has not In the least
degree abated. This demand can be
still more Intensified by the Republi
cans in the congress .that assembles on
the first Monday of next month.
In his first annual report to the secre
tary of war, General Miles points out
the urgent need of strengthening our
coast fortifications. The United States,
he says. Is In Its present condition prac
tically at the mercy of a fourth-rate
naval power, which could bombard the
ports of the country and obtain from
them an Indemnity which would not
only lift its national debt, but which
would enable it to so Increase Its sea
powers as to make it a very difficult
matter Tor us to finally drive it away
from our soil. With a first-class naval
power,' the coasts of the country could
be undoubtedly occupied and. so block
aded as to even cripple the military
power of the government. General
Miles estimates that to fortify all our
coasts would cost 1125,000,000; but he Is
of the opinion that we might better pay
this sum than to lose several billions In
the destruction of exposed property in
the event of a foreign war. This is a
subject to which the next congress
would do well to give earnest attention.
MR. BAYARD'S .BLINDER,
From the Chicago Times-Herald.
No portion of his fellow countrymen
will be more amaied than Intelligent
southerners over the egregious blunder
Ambussailor Bayard made In the Edin
burgh address when lie said, speaking of
protection: "It is fatal to hopes of ad
vancement or even to the retention of
what has been gained 'by civilisation."
iicfore the civil war the south, the old
south, v.an stubbornly opposed to protec
tion. It had but a single staple to sell.
With slave labor that staple could be
cultivated, but slave labor could not be
pent up in factories nor chained to forges,
nor could free labor be imported. It was
simpler and cheaper for the old south to
sell cotton to EiiKlnnd and take manufac
tures largely In return than to undertake
manufacturing on her own account. Lord
Robert Cecil, speaking In the house of
commons In 1802, said: "The plain matter
of fact is that the northern states of
America can never be our sure friends for
this simple reason we are rivals po
litically, rivals commercially. We both
aspire to the government of the seas.
We are both manufacturing people.
With respect to the southern
states the case is entirely reversed. The
population are an agricultural people.
They furnish the raw material of our in
dustry and they consume the products
which we manufacture from It." The
speaker Is toilay prime minister of Great
Britain, Lord Salisbury. ,
It was only when her labor was free that
the south began lo consider seriously the
Idea of becoming, like the north, a manu
facturing community. It was during a
period dominated exclusively by protec
tion that the experiment was tried. It
results are before the world. It was pro
tection that made the new south. It was
In only 1870 that the town of Birmingham
was founded, although It was well known
before the civil war that there were in
that region Immense deposits of coal and
Iron, The construction of rolling mills
and furnaces there inaugurated the new
era, and it was only the other day that
a bulletin Issued by the government point
ed out the remarkable fact that from this
southern center of protected Industry
Ironwork was being manufactured on an
order from Toklo. In such orders to
American Iron centers, this being the most
remarkable, the bulletin went on to say,
"can be read the whole future of the Iron
and steel trade In the civilised world and
Its certain transfer from England to the
United States."
In 1M9 the United 'states made more
pig Iron and at lower price than Great
Britain, and the new south, led to a pros
perity of which this Is an Index, has had
her full share of the Implied benefits, for
the production and consumption of iron.
It Is agreed by economists. Is the truest
test of progress. For twenty years lead
ing to 1881 the production and eonsumpUon
of iron In the United States exceeded by
many fold that of the entire previous
hundred years. This Is the triumph of
protection. In 1M7 capital St Birmingham,
Ala., paid Hut per cent In IBM the site
of the southern-town Bessemer was a for
est. Today It furnishes , inert tons of
freight te the railroads than doe the en
tire cotton crop. In 1880 Atlanta had 196
manufacturing establishments, with u
capital of $2,400,000, employing J. 600 hands.
Today its manufactories exceed 700. its
capital la more than JUi.oOii.UOO, and it em
ploy! more than 15. urn) hands, producing
foods annually worth more than U,uO0,uutt.
'he locomotive works nt Kichmond se
cured against all competition the contract
to build the engines uf the United Slates
warship Texas. Slnco )SNi the annual out.
put of the south has Increased nearly 10U
per cent. A conservative, estimate places
that of 11)00 at $10,I)(K.04;,OU more than that
of the prevloua decade. Today the new
south Is turning out annually $1,000,000,00)
more than it did ten years ago.
This Is the result of protection, which
Ambassador Bayard told his Edinburgh
audienco "Is fatal to hopes of advance
ment or even to the retention of what hus
been gained by civilisation."

If any one wants an answer to the qutM
tlon, why the lemoi;ratiu colors have thus
been trulled In the dust, he can say In
brief that It Is because Cleveland by his
home anil foreign politics, by the repudia
tion of the Democratic platform and lis
adoption of the popullstlc platform, by lis
shifty pretenco of selling bonds to main
tain the gold reserve when It was to pay
federal expenses unprovided for, by his at
tempted overreaching of congress and
secret restoration of tho Hawaiian mon
archy, by his attitude toward foreign Inso
lence, by his general contempt for the idea
of party government and his effort to get
himself nominated for a third term, hits
trampled on the rules, the pride, the senti
ment, und the flag of the United States.
There Is no room for surprise In the fact
that at this precise juncture our ambassa
dor to Englund, Thomas Francis liayard,
should get on his feet to tell his hosts
thut the American people have become de
praved, corrupt and degraded.
Ono View of Piatt.
Walter Wcllman, in Times-Herald.
Thomas C. Piatt Is now, without any
doubt, the most powerful managing politi
cian In America. No other man In either
of the panics approaches him in potenti
ality, Air. liatt Is more absolutely mas
ter of New York state than any man has
ever been before, und with the legislature
under his control, and likely to he for
years to come, It will not be long before
the metropolis pusses under Ills grasping
domination. If he does not effect this
openly by reorganising legislation at Al
bany, he will do It In another way by
means of dickers with Tammany hall.
What Spain Cannot Do.
From the Washington Star,
Spain has been able to prevent Cuba
from becoming a part of this country.
But she could not hinder the people of tho
Island from acquiring somo of tho re
sourceful energy which distinguishes the
population of the North American contin
ent, and applying it in a crisis like the
present one.
A Perplexity.
"Don't bother me," said the messenger
boy. "Don't bother me. I'm thlnkln'."
"What about?" was the inquiry of his
chum.
"About business. If I ride my bicycle to
carry this note it'll be more fun; but I'll
git It delivered inside of an hour, und It
seems unprofessional." Washington Star,
A Degenerate Sentiment.
"Y-a-a-s," said Willie Wishlngtdn, "I
have sometimes allowed myself to tnlnlc
about the pwopwlety of suicide. It's like
advice, don't you know. You can name
ovah lots of other fellows to whom you
might he willing to wecommend it."
Washington Star.
What Stopped the Conversation.
"I see," said Woodby Wltte's patient
wife, "that the Cuban Insurgents have de
cided to take another tack."
"Have they?" was the response, with a
self-satisfied titter. "That'll make it
harder than ever for Spain to sit down on
them, won't it?" Washington Star.
So Hope Wo All.
From the Washington Star.
