SCRANTON. NOVEMBER 13. 1S95.
The congressman from this district
ought to feel proud of himself now that
he has descended to frequenting secret
caucuses in order to bark at his bene
factor. "No Seat, No Fare."
Street cars are proverbially crowded
In all large cities at certain hours in
the day, no matter how large the cars
or the number running. It follows that
frequently passengers are compelled to
stand, there not being seats enough to
accommodate all who crowd into a car.
In Philadelphia and some other cities
the cry of "no seat no fare," is heard
at this trme. It Is suggested that pas
sengers refuse to pay fare until -they
are provided with seats. It is always
easy to raise a cry against a street car
company, or, in fact, against almost
any other corporation supposed to be
In existence for the convenience of the
public. Now to us it seems that there
is very little sense In this cry of "no
Beat no fare." Circumstances, which
a street car company cannot forseo or
provide against, frequently double and
quadruple travel on their lines. A
street car will teat a certain number of
people. If a person is unwilling to
stand he should not enter a street car
whose seating capacity is already occu
pied. Surely no reasonable man ex
pects a eompany to carry free all who
voluntarily crowd into It knowing that
there are ho seats for them.
As a rule companies run as many
cars as they And .profitable, and they
cannot be expected to run more. Doubt
loss some companies exercise inade
quate Judgment in their management
They should run more cars at certain
periods of the day than at others. Some
companies give the publlo inadequate
service and wretched accommodation,
but there is no sense In raising a hue
and cry against a company because in
the morning or in the evening there is
a rush and the cars are so crowded that
some of the passengers must stand.
When people enter a car that is already
full they should either uncomplainingly
stand up or leave that car and tako
their chances on the next one.
Mr. Davles la mistaken when he in
timates ,that the only places In which
he was cut last fall were the "Yankee
wards." The returns show that .he was
,also cut badly In Hyde Park.
The' Third Term Bee. ;
' One week ago, in a dispatch to the
Chicago Times-Herald, "Walter Well
tnan, the- Washington correspondent,
declared in most emphatic terms and
"upon the highest authority" that Mr.
Cleveland not only did not want put
would Hot accept a fourth nomination.
Re now prefaces a long dispatch with
these Interesting words of recantation:
"It loofca.now aa if an organised effort
la to be made by the Cleveland wing
of the party to thrust a fourth nomina
tion and third term upon their ideal
This effort Is to be started and direct
ed from the cabinet, and with the
knowledge and apparently with the ap
proval of the president Doubtless
every federal officeholder In the count
try will be expected to do his share
of the work. The third term experi
ment ls-now on, aure enough,
"In one week there has been a change
of base en the part of the administra
tion, amounting to revolution. Before
the election the members of the cabinet,
almost without exception, believed and
said the president did not want a third
term, that he did not believe in a third
term as a matter of principle, and that
In case circumstances seemed to require
It he would make publlo announcement
of his views and of his refusal to run
again. Now It Is a different story. The
Hay after the election the' members of
the administration began talking of a
fourth nomination. They said the pres
ident in view of the result of the elec
tions, was the only man who could lift
the Democratic party out of Its slough
of defeat and despondency. The vol
ume of this sort of talk has visibly' in
creased for some days. It broke out
with great force after Friday's cabinet
meeting, at which It is known the presi
dent and his official advisers spent
nearly two hours talking over the polit
ical situation, if it is fair to Infer the
motives and plana of an official family
by what the members of it have to say,
then a movement for a third term was
virtually decided upon at that meeting
of the cabinet and may now be consid
ered afoot'- -
It would b entirely In line with Mr.
Cleveland's ostentatious ; record of
"consecration" to duty if he should,
aa la herein Intimated, regard the
cleaning out of all possible Democratic
rivals as a kind of Inspired. Invitation
to head the fight once more himself.
This view would coincide with his
colossal egotism and make due recog
nition of the curious element of luck
which has so many times played In hie
favor. If we belonged to the Democrat
ic party we should favor Mr. Cleve
land's renomlnatlon, If for no other rea
eon than that It would give the party
the benefit of the Inexplicable yet very
palpable prestige associated with hie
With CtereUad as theeeeadU
date, the Democracy could make at
least an appearance of fighting; with
any other Democrat aa the standard
bearer the campaign woul4 scarcely
become Interesting.
The country will await with curiosity
the working out of this problem.
Choosing a time when the men he
would abuse are absent in a distant
state, Mr. Joseph A. Scranton has made
another of his characteristic exhibi
tions of backbiting. It is to the credit
of the gentlemen who met on Monday
evening to prepare an "antt-Connell"
slate for next spring's city election that
most of them took no atock in Mr.
Scranton'a remarks on that occasion.
There probably wore in that secret
caucus several men who were sincere
in their beliefs. However far they may
be from the truth, they are not hypo
crites; they are candid In their error.
It can readily be believed that to these
men the blatant talk of Mr. Scranton,
with Its overflowing suggestion of baf
fled malice, consummate selfishness and
rank ingratitude, was grossly distaste
ful. One of those who were present
doubtless voiced the general feeling
when, after the meeting was over, he
called the ingrate down by asking him
to whom he owed his present seat in
congress.
Aa Excited Pastor Rebuked.
There was both courtesy and grace
in the manner in which Rev. Dr. Mc
Leod, of this city, albeit a Presbyterian,
replied in the New York Observer to the
attack of Rev. H. R. Hawels, a Broad
church Anglican clergyman, upon, the
brethren In his own ministry. Mr. Ha
wels, in the Contemporary Review, had
uttered a scathing Indictment of , the
Episcopal clergy, both in England and
the United States, saying among other
things that Its "social and Intellectual
decline" was "an Incontestable fact,"
which "the bishops freely admit and be
wail," but cannot prevent, and which,
as he asserts, is "growing worse every
year."
"This accuser of his brethren," re
marks Dr. McLeod, "throws aside, the
amenities and the proprieties which a
clergyman, above all others, should
never forget, and he allows his unruly
member to run riot. He hurls at his
brethren such choice epithets as 'un
scrupulous hypocrites' and 'dullards'
whom 'the laity despise' and upon
whom they look, not exactly as 'liars'
or 'idiots,' but as a mixture of both. To
an outsider it would seem that after
graduating at Oxford, the Rev. Mr.
Hawels must have taken a post-gradu
ate course at Billingsgate."
We shall not follow the doctor
through his masterly refutation of
these broad charges, although to do so
would be a pleasure. To Americans,
familiar with the high grade of scholar
ship and character and the rare devo
tion to duty which characterize the
clergy of the Protestant Episcopal
church, the fiery accusations of the
Rev. Mr. Hawels reply to themselves.
But It may be noted as a delicate in
stance of growing sectarian liberality
that the first reply to these unworthy
assertions should come, not from one
within the attacked circle, but from
the pastor of a separate and In certain
respects perhaps we may Bay a rival
denomination.
There is reason to believe that the
Reed boom is on the mend In the south
these days.
The Investigation Mania.
The unanimous adoption by the Pitts
burg Chamber of Commerce of a reso
lution calling for all independent in
quiry into municipal affairs In that city
Is a passing indication of the agitation
which is prevalent In municipalities
generally. Much -of this unrest la
doubtless without sufficient cause, and
it is possible .that the multiplication of
Independent Inquiries, each following
Its own ideas but all having the event
ual effect of unsettling publlo confi
dence, will do more harm than good.
But this seems under our prevalent
system of government to be about the
only way in which the public's curios
ity as to the transaction of its official
business can be satisfied. There are
epidemics of investigation as well as of
measles and scarlet fever; and the peo
ple of the closing decade of the nine
teenth century are manifestly in the
midst of such an epidemic. It Is char
acteristic of epidemics that they give
more or less pain while they last; but it
is also characteristic of them that they
leave the body politic in a fair degree
of health and strength.
We do not know anything about the
local political conditions in Pittsburg.
It la probable that there is provocation
for an investigation. In few cities la
there not Corporate control of councils,
the enrichment of favorite men or com
panies at the expense of the general
taxpaylng public, these and allied evils
are common to all cites, varying from
city to city in degree more than in prin
ciple. The people, of course, are them
selves at fault, and In the strict ethics
of the case should punish themselves
even more severely than they occa
sionally punish the revealed chief of
fenders like Tweed and his ilk. But
they do not see that, and there ia noth
ing to do but to let them gain the
knowledge of their duty in the costly
school of experience,
The Philadelphia "Lexow" investi
gation Is certainly proceeding slowly.
Let us hope it is also, progressing
surely.
Penny and Two-Cent Newspaper!.
The Chicago Times-Herald has re
duced its price to one cent per copy, but
promises to make no reduction in the
quantity or the quality of its contents.
It waa forced to do this by business
competition, but we cannot see that it
Is a result to crow over. The Times
Herald is probably the most expensive
American newspaper. At a rough guess
we should estimate that Its weekly ex
penditure ia fully (10,000; it may reach
115,000 or even 120,000. It la the best
illustrated, the best printed and the
best edited paper In the west and Its
pre-eminence costs money. It is not
well supported by the advertisers of
Chicago, although its advertising pat
ronage Is growing. Ite circulation la
not 70,000 dally, and at 1 cent per copy,
for twelve and sixteen pages such aa it
prints, the more copies It circulates the
more money it will lose.
Under these circumstances it ama
fair to remark that the business oondl
ties' U to be deplored whloh forces this,
excellent paper to sell its wares below
the cost of production. It is well worth
two cents a copy. It would be cheap at
ten cents. To sell It for a cent means
that Mr. ICohlsaat, the alert proprietor
of the Times-Herald, will have to draw
on his personal bank account to cover
the discrepancy between the paper's
income and its outlay. It happens in
this particular case that the propri
etor's personal aooount la sufficiently
ample to sustain any probable demands
of this character; but none the loss the
condition la anomalous and should not
continue. The newspaper business la
pre-eminently a cosuneroial business,
subject to tho samo laws that govern
other branches of trade. Tho primary
idea behind It is to secure a reasonable
profit on the time, capital and anxiety
invested in It Other purposes are In'
cluental and subsidiary, as they should
be. No public should expect a good
thing for less than a fair price. When
it is encouraged to expect such a thing
for leas it la encouraged in a line of
thinking the logical end of which is
fraud.
A newspaper not worth two cents is
not worth having.
Some years ago the Century Maga

Suspicion long attached to Colonel John
Hay, and it took years for him to re

to protest against the embarrassment of
a false credit was the late Colonel
Harris, of Cleveland. Now, however,
comes the Cleveland World with strong
proof that the real author,, after all,
was the late Rev. Dr. J. W. Menden
hall, for many years editor of the Mis
sionary Review. Dr. Mendenhall was
well known to many Scran tonlano; if he
wrote "The Breadwinners" It must
have been by an inspiration which had
no parallel In his career.
The Harrlsburg Patriot adds fuel to
the anti-Harrity flame by refusing to
believe the national chairman's denial
that he had anything to do with the
election of Judge Smith or the defeat
of the latter's colleagues on the Demo
cratic ticket. The Patriot, In Its eager
ness to fan a religious conflagration
among the ruins of the Pennsylvania
Democracy, is exhibiting a seal really
worthy of a more creditable under
taking.

party in Now York he said:,-
"I'm a Democrat, you know, and rnly

"In what resneet?" asked the reporter.
"Why, we have made a deficit of $300,

the money to pay It. we are enjoying our
elves, and we ara sroine to let the Re
publicans do the walking later on. The
Republicans paid $2,000,000,000 on the na

littlo three hundred million deficit."
"But what has becomo of tho $1S2,000,000
