Those who i tltU-lH our DomooiBtlc
frlemla for b.'lns too alow to volunt.-r
mum think that It la a iUnlu to g-t
walloped In politli x.
Let Money Talk.
While Sulm-Uays amW.-n nr at the
Home of the FrlenUles!. aeemeil at first
an lnd.s ril.able misfortune. UeprlvlnB
us It did more than two-score little
children and several helpless adults of
their accustomed shelter, yet It may
prove a blesslnR In disguise If It shall
stir the Reneioua hearts of Scran ton to
provide new quarters suitable for the
purposes of this most deserving of local
iharltles. We believe that such an
outcome may yet be effected, but It villi
necessitate prompt and earnest work.
To complete the new bulldins for
which foundations have already been
laid In the vicinity of the Oral school
will require, It la estimated, $40,000.
There are several strong reasons why
this sum should now be raised and the
suspended work on the new Home be
re-begun without unnecessary delny. In
the first Place, the Home. In Its old lo
cation, will always be crippled and al
ways be subject to just such disasters
as that of Saturday. Perhaps the next
visitation of fire to the Adams avenue
property may be attended by loss of life
as well as of property. The danger of
auch a fatality at any rate should be
nbvluted by the Home's removal to am
pler and safer quarters.
In addition to this the Home deserves
to be enlurged. For years It has proved
Itself one of the most useful and help
ful Institutions of Its kind In Pennsyl
vania. The good that it hus done for
Bcranton. the little lives that it has
saved from poverty," desertion and
crime, the unfortunates of all ages to
whom It has offered refuge, establish
r claim for It upon the favor of this
generous community no more to be
measured by $40,000 or any other sum of
money than mercy and love are to be
measured by numerals and signs. To
condemn the unselfish agents )f this
humane enterprise to continue their
work indefinitely in a meager and dan
grerous building In the face of Satur
day's solemn warning would be nothing;
less than a display of wilful Ingratitude
such as Hcranton is incapable of.
The gentlemen who are to meet to
night in the Board of Trade rooms to
discuss plans for the raising of funds
for the completion of the new Home
will emphasize their good words with
their good money, and the same recom
mendatlon Is submitted for the consid
eration of all friends of the enterprise.
The Tribune will be glad to acknow
'edge in its columns, each day, and
promptly to turn over to the proper
ersons contributions of those of Us
readers who may care to forward sums
of money to The Tribune office in be
half of enlarging the Home; and
those who may wish to avoid this In
termediate step will receive from the
treasurer of the Home, Mrs. D. E. Tay
lor, equally prompt acknowledgement
of favors sent directly to her. The main
point Is to send the money. A dollar in
cash will outweigh a week's fruitless
talk, and there are probably thirty
five men In Bcranton. who could, with
out milking It, give $1,090 apiece.
The London Standard's official apolo
gy will be accepted as' soon as Lord
Salisbury restores to Venezuela the
stolen goods.
Clara Barton's Mission.
By an accidental omission In yester
day's printed report a point of excep
tional strength was left from the effec.
tive address of ex-Justice Hand at
Sunday evening's service of protest, In
the First Presbyterian church. It was
his reading from a press dispatch of the
following affecting Incident In connec
tlon with the Immense meeting of Ar
menian sympathizers held In Washing
ton last Friday:
Miss Clara Barton, mad the announce
tnent that at a meeting held In New York
such satisfactory auaranteen of aid had
been received that In about two weeks she
would prepare to tll- for Armenia. Then
tne veteran pniianinropiat added this pa.
thetlc appeal: "If I live to come back,
judge me not harshly nor praise me un
Justly, for I shall only have done all tha
J could. I may not meet with you again
therefore. I bid you good-bye." With one
accord the great audience arose and tes
tified Its earnest sympathy with Mia
Barton in her important mission, and Jus
tice Harlan In an exprealson of his desire
that Miss Barton should leave the United
States on the best ship of the United
States Navy obviously referred to the
armed cruiser New York understood to be
under order for Turkish waters.
The unassuming heroism with which
this noble woman again accepts the
hssard of her life In a service for hu
mantty may well fin with shams the
hearts of those. European statesmen
who jealously weigh prestige and power
against the wanton killing of thou
sands ef their fcUowcltliens by, a na
tion legally subject to their intere-
slon and d-fencelen to the word or to
he sword of their relul;e. Ktit should
Clara Barton fall tn her contemplated
mission, not even th indifference of
jealous ministers could serve to stem
he tide of retributive Christian ven
geance which would nweep over every
country in Christen Jom to the Turk's
final suppression. Sad as would be
the thought of her martyrdom. Infinite
ly poignant as would be the well-nigh
universal sense of loss, yet from such
a result,' If not without it. would In ull
probability spring lasting reform. Hut
the manhood of Christendom ought to
be most egreglously ashamed to place
upon this one brave woman, in the
evening of her heroic life-service for
humanity, the responsibility which it
has hitherto cowardly shunned.
As for tho olllolal announcement of
the Turkish government that it will
not permit any funds to be distributed
by Miss llurton or any other outsider.
the. answer, to this should come from
the guns of an American squadron of
warships, with Kurope's co-operation
If possible, without It if necessary. The
Turk has now challenjjed Christendom
anew, and we predict that there will be
virility enough among: the objects of Its
latest arrogance to respond In a man
ner not open to misunderstanding.
The attitude of the 1'nlted States to
wards Turkey may . likened to that
of spectators ut a fire who refuse to
volunteer when the regular lire com
panies out of mutual Jealousy fail to do
heir duty. It Is not a creditable pos
ture for a Christian nation. .
The Superior Court
The new state tribunal, known. as the
Superior court, met In this city yester
day for Its first session since the elec
tion of the seven Juds?es who constitute
It. Judge Hit continues as the presi
dent Judge of the court, he having been
previously chosen by lot. This new ad
dition to the Judiciary of ine common
wealth of Pennsylvania is now perma
nently organized and will meet at stat
ed Intervals at Hcranton, Philadelphia,
Wllllanisport, llarrlaburg and Pitts-
lung. To what extent this tribunal will
relieve the Supreme court cannot be
definitely known, but It Is estimated
that the result will be to very nearly
equally divide the labor that has here
tofore fallen to the Supreme court. Pub
lic expectation will be grievously dis
appointed If. with this new court in full
operaton, the busness of the Supreme
court Is not performed more expediti
ously than In the past.
It Is only the truth that the multi
plying of courts and judges has not,
as a rule, had the effect of expediting
the disposal of litigation. This has ref
erence more especially, however, to the
lower courts. Populous counties have
been granted additional judges, and
new districts have been constantly
created, thus vastly Increasing the cost
of maintaining the judiciary, without
the expectant compensatory results.
The work and compensation incident to
the lower courts 1st not equitably dis
tributed under our present system.
Some of the common pleas Judges are
worked hard, but they Tecelve no great
er compensation than other Judges who
perform less than . fourth as much
work. Some Judges sit almost con
stantly, while others are on the bench
only a few weeks in the year, yet there
is no difference in the compensation.
This Is contrary to every principle of
equity. Again, in some judicial dis
trlots there are two or more judges who
combined do no more work than de
volves upon a single Judge In other dis
tricts.
There was no popular opposition to
the creating of the new Superior court
That this is true la confirmed by the
fact that the judges of this court re
celved a larger vote than was cast for
the office of state treasurer at the elec
tion last November, and this, too, not
withstanding the fact that before the
election an appeal liad been made to
the people to manifest their disapproval
of the court by refusing to vote for the
candidates for Judge.
There Is every reason for believing
that the new Superior court will prove
to be an earnest, industrious and able
adjunct to our state Judiciary, that it
will dispose of the business coming be
fore it promptly and not permit any
accumulation of cases such as has
marked the Supreme court. It Is of the
highest Importance that litigation
should be disposed of with the utmost
promptness In all our courts, and the
new Superior court is In a position to
set a wholesome example in that direc
tlon.
In the midst of the calls which are
being made upon local philanthropy,
Scrantonians' should not forget Friday
evening's lecture at the Frothlngham
for the benefit of the Oral school. Pur
chasers of tickets for this event will
not only do the school a good turn in
an hour of financial need, but they will
also get for their money the best bar
gain to be had In the whole lecture field
For Henry Watterson is, without
ceptlon, the most eloquent speaker to.
day on the American platform, and his
oration upon "Lincoln" Is incomparably
his masterpiece. Friday evening's
greeting of him should be an enthusias
tic one, commensurate with the speak
er's renown and the merit of the cause
in whose Interest he will speak.
That true charity knows no dlstlnc
tlons of race or creed was shown anew
In the generous offer by St. Patrick's
orphanage, St. Josieph'a Foundlings'
Home and the Home of the Good Shep
herd, institutions all identified with the
Catholic church, to care for the In
mates of the Home for the Friendless
who were temporarily rendered home
less by Saturday fire. One such
brotherly act as this outweighs whole
carloads of bigotry
Senator Quay's evident determination
Is to stay mad at David Martin. At all
events,' he has made, within a week,
three separate dentals of a report that
he and David had kissed and made up,
which Is a pretty good record for a man
usually so silent as Quay.
If the Norrlstown Herald will kindly
keep Its eagle eye fixed upon Bcranton,
it will not only not see, aa It fears, a
Democratic municipal victory next
month, but it will see the biggest Re
publican triumph on record. This is
not a Democratic year.
Bills are already In the possession
of the house labor committee providing
for the apKIntment of six fat commis
sioners to Inquire Into various subjects,
and the session is yet only Li Its cradle
m rlod.
- - - -Art-nrtllnfr
to Washington dispatches
In the Democratic papers, there has
been a Republican revolt against Reed.
From now on, these revolts may be ex
pected periodically in the Democratic
papers.
Complaint Is general among the news
paper corres!ondents nt: Washington
that this Is the most secretive and ex
clusive administration tb.pt ever held
power. But considering Us record, no
wonder it Fhuns publicity.
The Republican city ticket has not
yet found Its way to the head of the
editorial columns of the Si ranton Re
publican, and the elec tion Is only a little
more thun a month dlntant.
The London Sunday Times three
weeks ago devoted a column editorial
to proving; that the Monroe doctrine
was as "dead as Julius Caesar." Wc
wonder what it thinks now.
If the Herman Kaiser has been scared
by Knglnnt Into retracting his manly
message to Kruger. we pity him for
It. He will never hear the e.id of his
people's reproaches.
Perhaps it would be Just as well If the
newspapers would let ex-President Har
rison marry Mrs. Ditumlck, provided, of
course, that he and she are willing.
Will the Rockafeller bank mystery
ever be unraveled? This seems to have
all the element of a first-class guess
ing contest.
POLITICAL POINTS.
The Republican committee of Beaver
rouivty goes In strong for reform. At a
recent meeting- the committee adopted res
olutions forbidding ltepubllcun candi
dates to us money at the primaries, ex
cept for the barest persouul expenses. Not
content with this, the committee also
passed a resolution declaring thut the
congressman from that district and the
members or the leKlt-luturft from tne
county shull not recommend any person
for appointment under tne national or
state government unless the county com
mittee shall have nrt endorsed sucn per
son. That may be called reform with a
capital R.
The I'nited States senatorshin Question
In Pennsylvania Ih not attracting much
attention Jiipi now. locui poiuics is
monopolizing the time and energies of
the pulitic-ana After the February elec
tions the selection of delegates to the
national convention will have to be at
tended to. Then the senatorship will
have another Inning. This will be a year
of activity in politics. In the meantime
Colonel Wat res. of Lackawanna, and Mr.
Brown, of ancaster, will remain the
more hopeful aspirants for Cameron's
toga.
:!':-
The ReDublicans of Kentucky are still
hopeful of being able to elect Senator
Kluckburn s successor in tne i nueu

Populists they may realise this expecta
tion, but It Is to be sincerely hoped they
will not make any compromise with
them that will result In adding another
crank to the senate.

There seems to be no mourning among
the Ohio Democrats over the political de
mise of Senator Brlc-e. It will be quite
refreshing to sea two Republicans from
Ohio in the UnMed States senate. This
hus not happened in a greut many years.
Kx-Uovernor Foraker seems to be des

In Lancaster City there are twenty
Democrats who aspire to the honor of
running for mayor, lively limes are an
ticipated when the time comes to elect
delegates to the nominating convention.
Democratic mayoralty timber seems to be
more abundant In Lancaster than In
Scranton.
At the Democratic primaries in the city
of Reading last Saturday in some
wards, so many votes were cast that the
counting was not completed until Sunday
morning at s oclocK. I n ttereated can
didates have an Idea that there was fraud,
In one ward where there are less than
two registered voters nearly SOU votes were
polled, and all claimed to be Democrats.
:!!:-
About four years more of the kind of
Democratic administration we are now
having would swamp the national treas
ury and the country, financially. Fortun
att-lv there is only a little morn than a
year of it and the country will be able
to stand that without a ureaa-uown.

HELP A WORTHY CAUSE.
From the Scranton Times.
This morning's Tribune appeals io the
public for a subscription to the Home
for the Friendless, and very Kenerously
heads the list with a contribution of
(100. Saturday's tire destroyed a portion
of the Home, and badly damaged th?
whole structure. The management has
been embarrassed in carrying on the work
of the noble institution, from lack of
means, and the contlaKiatlon of Satur
day hus added (treat lv to Its troubles. It
was hoped the Home would receive legis
lative aid. but the finances or the state
did not seem to warrant the authorities in
apportioning a sum to the Scmnton Home,
and the Institution is wholly dependent
upon the necessities of the moment. It Is
to be honed the generous spirit heretofore
evidenced by our citizens will again be
made manifest that the grand work of
this splendid Institution shall not be In
terrupted. Tnere are many weulthy men
In Bcranton who would not miss tluo
apiece, and who could not devote their
benefaction to a better cause than the
Home. Those with more limited means
can give accordingly, and crowd the
places of amusements to the doors on the
occasion or tne sympnony concert ana the
Klrmess which will be given for the bene
fit of the Home In tne near future.
Let the Mew Home Be Bulldcd.
From the Bcranton Truth.
The question asked after divine service
yesterday morning by one of the younger
listeners to Rev. Rogers Israel's strong
appeal for the Home for the Friendless
is the one tor Bcranton to answer now.
ftpeaklng of the appeal and of the thrill
or emotion that ran through the congre
gation when the thangsgiving was male
for the preservation of the Home's In
mates, she said: "Sympathy and emo
tion are good, but will they reach down
Into the pocket for the money that should
be riven?" We liODe and believe so. and
that it will be given freely, according to
the ability of the giver, from the smallest
to the largest sum that may be.
Subscriptions and donations outright
were what were asked ror. Tne calamity
thut overtook the Home on Saturday
afternoon pleads In bvhulf of Its being
propely sheltered In a new building. Let
the entertainment plunned for its benefit
be made a great success, and the benefit
offered by the Symphony orchestra also
be made a substantial one. But let these
not be the only giving to the building
fund. As the managers report a year ago
stated, after the foundation was com
pleted for the main building, It will take
141) 000 to erect the superstructure upon It.
and the fund was exhausted. However
well the entertainments may pay, tney
cannot alone meet this necessary sum. A
goodly beginning for it should be made
this montn.
This Is the beginning of the twenty-fifth
year of the Home's noble work. Let It be
signalised by "a strong pull and a pull to
gether" to put tbe Home lata condition
for meeting all the demands that can he
niaile I .on IIS sei v'.crs for the poor nuii
the liieiid.ess hi this fast growing cl:y.
A WORTHY INSTITUTION.
From the Archbald CHIsen.
According - to our correspondent's re
port, tho tnnd of the Liii Kawanna hus
piljl at Scrunton are ruuuir. low and
tne inMiittr.ion will shortly be III neen r
money to pay the running expenses. Oi:r
corrcsiiomieiu su.'rgey-ts that while tho
corocratlons should conlrlhate that
workir.Kinen In general, vhoiihl also do
nate one day's wages toward the main
tnlnance of the institution. The sugges
tion Is a good one and should be acted
upon at once, as there is no more worthy
institution in tha tr. te than is the Lack-
itwtinmi hospital.' It is In every Beiii-o of
the word tho I'oor mun's friend. There
are very few persons working in and
around the mines, who themselves or
their mentis huve not at one time or
another found shelter, succor and re
stored health Inside Its walls. The rl;h
can do without It, upon the poor It has
conferred muny blessings; none can tell
whe:i their turn may come or wno ine
next will be who may want shelter and
mrdlcol ertendance there.
The onlv nlnce outside or voluntary
contributions, from which donations can
he exnected Is from state appropriations,
and us the legislature will not meet for
year and the necessary legislation can
not be enacted for a much greater time
the people .should net at once. We tnml
thmt should an ert'ort be made to solicit
subscriptions Ihe ix-ople of Archbald and
vicinity will not be backward in helping
along so worthy a cause.
