"UeslUeiits of this recion ore to be
felicitated upon the fact that at lam
there 1st a prospect that common sense
will hereafter enter Into the councils
of those who regulate the anthracite
coal trade, and lead In time to a condi
tion assuring to the producers of coal
and to their employes a reasonable price
and a fair wage.
The Court's the Place, n
For mnny reasons the public 1b to be
congratulated that those who have
hitherto made vague and sweeping ac
cusations of fraud at the recent pri
maries have decided to present their
case In open court. That is the proper
Tlace for suc h charges. There, accuser
and accused can be brought face to
face, and the truth sifted from both.
The Tribune, In behalf of the regulur
Republicans of Scranton, welcomes this
test, and trusts that it will be applied
Impartially to suspects of both factions.
Let the Innocents be cleared from un
just suspicion, and let no guilty man
escape.
. Speaking for Colonel Ripple and his
colleagues on the Republican city ticket,
we can say that while every honest
vigilance committeeman will be pro
tected to the furthest possible .limit,
there Is no disposition to extend In
dulgence to deliberate violators of the
law. Neither Colonel Ripple nor any of
his companion nominees Is bo destitute
of personal character or popularity as
to require the aid of fraud, either at
primaries or at elections. Their oan
vbbs rests upon the more solid basis of
demonstrated fitness for public olllce
and known personal Integrity. I'pon
that basis they go before the people,
and by that sign they Intend to conquer.
: In the meantime, however, Republi
cans should not fail to consider who the
men are that utter these charges of
fraud and what their motives are In
creating the present furore. Let them
fairly weigh the character and the po
litical practices of the accusers In the
scale against those of the men at whom
tney strike. Let them correctly meas
ure the political, caliber of fartlonlsta
who, out of revenge for falling to win
at the primaries, coolly propose to
wreck the party at the polls. All these
circumstances should be duly consid
ered, together with the latest act of the
men who, while declaiming with one
breath against the corrupt use of
money In polities, with the other, have
contributed thousands of dollars to the
Democratic managers for use against
Ripple two weeks hence. A verdict
reached after such an Inquiry will have
emphasis.
Among laymen the opinion still ob
tains that the best way for Uncle Sam
to appeal to Spain In Cuba's behalf is
to do so with a club.
The Claims of Mckinley.
The Cleveland World makes by far
the strongest plea yet uttered for Wil
liam McKinley when It calls atten
tion to the fact that present economic
conditions are the result of a disregard
lng of his warnings, and that the path
way back to prosperity in this coun
try follows the line pointed out by him
long before the free trade catastrophe
befel. It attacks no other candidate,
calls attention to McKinley's clean
personality and to his constant read!
ness to accept assignments to party
service on the platform, and makes this
appeal to what It calls the "strong
party men":
He Is a believer in party organisation
He is and always has been a true frlenl
to those who bear the heat and burden
Of the day In politics. He has always rec
ognixed party leadership. His appoint
ments as governor are evidence of this.
What objection therefore can the party
leaders and politicians have to McKinley n
nomination? There really is no objection
to McKinley, and when the time com
those who wield great political power
in tbelr respective mates will be the first
to discover that the easiest way for the
Republican party to elect he next presl
den will be to nominate the man the peo
ple want. The people at this rrisls In our
national affairs demand McKinley. Pro
tection and prosperity. They favor Mo.
Klnley, not only because of his personali
ty, but because his election will empha
sise, more than that of any other candi
date, disapproval of further destruction
of American industries by free trade leg
islation. They demand McKinley because
his nomination will insure beyond a per
adventure that the revenues of this gov
ernment will be sufficient to meet :he
expenses. And furthermore the demand
for McKinley is In no sense a reflection
on ' the other candidates, but the most
practical way to bring about a complete
restoration of prosperity to the nation.
. All that the World says In McKin
ley's favor la truei - He Is a clean man,
an able man, and a Vllling party work
er. He has widespread personal popu
larity and his name among all thought
ful people commands respect. In his
Identification with the protective pol
icy he has outstripped his colleague
economists and now easily heads . the
list. At the aame. time, there tare
. doubts a to his all-Tound equipment
for the presidency. The people need to
be Informed Where he would stand In
foreign affair:, what his views ere con
cerning the currency question and how
far he is qualified to meet the vary
ing and varied duties of an olllce 'lik?
the presidency, which every year grows
greater In its exactions, Its cares .and
its opportunftlea.
The free silver senators have at least
one virtue. They have the courage of
their convictions. In an age of policy,
this is much.
The Stewart Plan Recalled.
That there Is needed some better
system of conducting primary elections
than that which now obtains Is em
phasized every time such elections ore
held; and the fact recalls the solution I
proposed somo yenvs ago by Judge John
Stewart of Chambersburg and ex
plained by hlin at some length la The
Tribune last summer. That plan was
to do away entirely with nominating
conventions by permitting the 'voters
of any party to vote directly at the
primary for the candidate of their
choice, the one receiving the highest
vote to be certllled ns the regular party
nominee. Two or three safeguards
would be necessary: first to make par
ticipation ut one of the primaries a con
dition governing the light to vote at
the next election; secondly, a registra
tion plan to prevent the same voter
from voting at two primaries In one
campaign; and. thirdly, the enactment
of stringent laws against repeating at
primaries.
I'nder this system, fuliiy enforced,
the nominees of the two chief parties
would be the most popular men In
those parties and there would be al
most no chance for a group of conspi
rators In any ward to "set up" things
to suit their personal ends or aims.
Had such a system been In vogue four
weeks ago, who can doubt that Colonel
Ripple would have been so overwhelm
ingly" returned as the choice of the peo
ple for mayor that no combination of
party wreckers could have dnred to plot
together with the Democrats for his de
feat? That Russia has gobbled Turkey Is
denied; but It is a report which may
yet be accurate in the past tense.
The Penrose Candidacy.
The only new feature evolved In the
fight for the Cameron succession In this
state since the last review Is the formal
entry of State Senator Roles Penrose
Into the race. His name has been used
ns that of a candidate by his authority,
and It is said, with what truth we know
not. that he will have the powerful aid
of Frank Willing Leach, chairman of
the state executive committee. In set
ting up legislative candidacies through
out the state favorable to himself. It
Is further asserted that a proposition
of compromise has been offered in
Philadelphia by the Quay faction to
the Martin faction, the terms of which
are that In consideration of a reconcilia
tion Martin, too. Is to turn in for Pen
rose. Whether there is any truth In
this report or not we do not know; we
give It simply as a surface Indication
that the Penrose senatorial candidacy
is a real factor, henceforth worthy of
attention In connection with the prob
lem of Cameron's successor.
With Senator Quay's help, the candi
dacy of Mr. Penrose would quickly
prove formidable; and It would doubt
less gain political strength, especially
In Philadelphia, because of the fact
that many who helped to defeat Pen
rose for the Philadelphia mayoralty
nomination have since begun to feel
that perhaps they acted hastily and did
the senator an injustice. On the other
hand, Penrose's conduct since, that de
feat has exhibited some signs of bitter
ness and vlndlctlveness which have left
scars difficult to overlook. One In
stance was shown in the last legislature
In his treatment of Senator Porter a
course which weakened Penrose ma
terially among his warmest friends.
That Penrose's feelings were natural
under the circumstances cannot be de
nied; but there Is a feeling in many
quarters that to be a successful politic
ian one should not "wear his henrt
upon his sleeve, for daws to peck at."
A fair estimate of Senator Penrose
would be that while he has brilliant
abilities and is full of youthful energy
and tire, he is deficient In discretion and
the Important power of self-discipline
and control. The fact that his friends
are warm friends and his enemies bit
ter enemies Bhows that he does not lack
a personality; and his publlu record
teaches that, When he cares to exer
cise It. he has a head full of brains.
Rut that he has yet acquired the com
mand of men and of affairs which
would Justify his election to the senate
of the United States is a statement to
which we suspect that few persons out
side of his Immediate circle of friends
and supporters would care to sup
scribe. It is In order for the "Reformers" to
explain what they purpose doing with
that J9.000.
Tillman's Sensational Speech. .
The speech of Senator Tillman in
the senate Wednesday, when read in
full, gives the reader a shock; but like
most Innovations we are not sure that
the shock Willi not eventunlly do good.
Tillman lets his zeal run away with
him In many places, and therefore says
things about the president, about his
fellow senators, about millionaires, and
about established Institutions general
ly, which are not true. Some of the
remarks made by hlm.as when he calls
the president a conspirator. A Judas
and a traitor, are execrable violations
of taste; but that, back of these Indis
cretions Is a fabric of common sense
cannot be denied by the most shocked
of sticklers for senatorial tradition.
It Is true that Cleveland as a presi
dent has been a failure. It Is true that
his civil service reform promises have
since gone to the protest which awaits
the notes of all reformers who work
the reform dodge for what there Is In
It.' It Is true that the United States
senate has oft times ceased to remem
ber Ha debt of duty to the plain people,
and has rather devoted Itself and Its
energies to the large corporations. All
these things in Tillman's speech are
true, and those who heard him say
them knew at the time that he was
speaking the truth. Of course, he might
have been more delicate in the manner
In which he said them. He tore his
masIob Into rather too many and too
conspicuous tatters; and he permitted
his Imagination top often to o'erleap
the confines of prudt-nce und discretion.
We are not upholding Tillman's errors.
We are merely saying thut In the. chaff
of his verbosity-.. therf was a pretty
valuable handful of solid grains of com
non sense, which the senate and the
people' of the United States would do
well to digest.
A good many newspapers have gone
to unnecessary trouble to get mad at
Tillman because of his speech; but
of course that is what he wants. The
better plan Is-to take what there Is of
truth In his diatribe ar.d let the rest
go.
On the evening before Washington's
birthday Dr. J. T. rtothrock, the effic
ient forestry commissioner of Pennsyl
vania, will, in Youns Mens Christian
association hall, give his Instructive
talk on "Beautiful Pennsylvania,"
which will be Illustrated by means of
Btereoptleon views. No man In the
commonwealth Is better fitted than
Dr. Rolhrock to discourse concerning
the natural beauties of the state which.
In discharge, of oillclal duties, he has
repeatedly traversed ond attentively
studied. That Dr. riot brock's remarks
upon this occasion will deal with the
important uestlon of forestry is' to be
expected, for upon this question he
speaks with unsurpassed authority.
Jiut the lecture will be of general Inter
est, und all who can spare the time
should attend and hear it.
If In consequence of the Scranton Re
publican's ilunderouM attacks on the
municipal government, the city should
get an ill name abroad and manufac
turers should be deterred front locat
ing here. It would be a dear price to
pay for the gratilicatlon of Mr. Scran
ton's individual malice. Regard for
the city's honor should lead the voters
to give to these injurious slanders an
emphatic repudiation.
The ppuriousness of the present cry
of "fraud" Is evident, among other rea
sons, from the fact that Colonel Rip
ple would have been the last man In
Scranton to have needed fraud to help
him win the primaries.
The proposition to have the United
States buy Cuba from Spuln overlooks
the fact that the United States treas
ury has recently been under Demo
cratic control.
It is estimated by those who know
that Mr. Scranton has made, alto
gether, as much as $:!OO,O00 out of the
Republican party. What Is he doing
for it, in return?
The good repute of this city may be
nothing to Mr. Scranton; but it is some
thing to most Scrantonlans, and they
will not forget who has tried to defame
It.
Democratic government has not been
so successful at Washington as to
cause a yearning for it here In Scran
ton. Scranton Republicans will not begin
the presidential year with a party de
feat. And the deficit keeps on growing.
WASHINGTON t.OMSIl.
Tribune Ilureati,
613 Fourteenth street, X. W.,
Wuxhington, Jan. .11.
Senator Quay's mind Is puzzled Just
now over whom to select as delegates-at-liirjje
from the western end of Pennsylva
nia to the St. Louis convention. There arc
several candidates, among them Lieuten
ant Governor Walter Lyon. Lyon was
here yesterday and had a long talk with
Quay on the subject. It is said Senator
Quay, while he would like to have his
friend Lyon go to the national convention
as a delegate-at-large, told him that lie
would have to stand aside for some other
ambitious statesmen In that end of the
state.
Colonel William A. Stone, State Sena
tor Kennedy and Representative Marshall
were at the conference, and were of the
same opinion as Senator Quay. Just who
Quay Will select for'deleKates-at-large' Is
not known, but Dr. Flood, of Meartvllle,
who is backed by State Senator Andrew,
will likely be one of them. Colonel Stone
and Hob McAfee are slnted as delegates
from the Allegheny city district, but who
will be pitted against the Mageeltes In
Pittsburg have not yet been decided upon.
Senator Quay Is anxious to control us
many of the delegates as posslhle. Of
course, he will be unable to control the
solid delegation unless he adopts Harrl
ty's unit rulu system which he is .lot
likely to do.
11 H "
Colonel Stone will not have clear sailing
for the Republican gubernatorial nomina
tion. Among his opponents will bo Jen
eral Wylle, of Venango county. Jii'luo Sum
Miller, of Mercer; Congressman Cliarlta
W. Stone, and possibly Congressman -it-Lark
Huff. The first two named gentle
men are out-and-out Quay men, and ex
pect the senator's support. The latter two
will depend, upon their own popularity.
Senator Quay is very much provoked at
the publication of the story that he has
selected Colonel Stone ns his candidate for
governor. Senator yuay was taught a
very severe lesson at the time Delamater
was his rnmllilute for governor. He prom
ised Delamater the nomination several
months In advance, but regretted It after
ward. He Is of the opinion that It Is not
good politics for a mnn to put his neck
In the halter so long In advance. Senator
Quay has not yet positively pledged him
self to Colonel Stone, but he Is friendly
to him and may give him his support when
the proper time arrives. Lieutenant Gov
ernor Lyon and Senator Arthur Kennedy
are both anxious to have Colonel Stone
nominated. They both want to succeed
him in congress.
li 11 II
Congressman Scranton had the honor of
being the only member of congress who
was Invited to attend the wedding of Sen
ator Quay's daut?hter Wednesday. Mr?.
Scranton's long anil Intimate acquaintance
with the bride was responsible for the
honor thrust upon the member from the
Eleventh district.

A SIGNIFICANT FACTOR.
From the Plttston Gazette.
A significant political movement Is that
reported from the Lackawanna capital,
where a new Republican club, largely com
posed, apparently, of Irish-Americans, has
been organised, with a view to aetlve par
ticipation in the political affairs of our
neighboring county. The president Is Ben-

is ex-Urneral Master Workman T.
V. I'owdeily and Ri preKeutnlive Chut'lca
O'Malley's name u'co appears in the llt or
otticlHlx. We say thai the moveincat H
Mgnilicant for the reason thut it U evi
dence of an Intention on the part of La-k-awanna
lildh-Amerkuna as such to tuki)
a more prominent fart In the affairs of
the Republican party In the future, while
It also shows that many Irish-Americans
who have during recent years come over
to the Republican party so far as to vote
with them when important national and
state Issues were at stake, mean hereafter
to fully Identify themselves with the
party.
Certain of the Irish-Americans Interests!
In this new Lackawanna organization,
notabiy Senator Vnuqhan and Representa
tive O'Malley. have heretofore been promi
nently Identified with the Republican par
ly, but there are other members, of whom
Mr. Powderly might be taken as an ex
ample, who, while earnestly believing in
i-ime of the bed rock principles of the
i irty and probably voting with it tha
greater part of the time, have never been
generally regarded as full-fledged mem
bers of the party. Now they wish to be
come known as scch, and the dealre l
fraught with considerable Interest to
members of both the great parties.
This is but a straw showing the drift of
political sentiment. It is unnecessary at
this time to enter Into a discussion of the
rensoiis, but it Is a fact too evident ta
pars unrecognized that a considerable
numbor of thosti voters upon whom thf
Democracy has llrmly rtiied In the nast ari
slowly but surely passing over to the op
position, and that the transfer Is to be
permanent. This crystallxatlon of Repub.
lican sentiment among our Irish American
friends has been so gradual'and quiet thut
even Republicans themselves are not fully
aware of Its extent, but II has taken
place, nevertheless, and now that the ball
has been set rolling among them for an
open declaration of their position. It ne-id
not surprise anybody If organizations sim
ilar In character an.l purpose to that re
cently formed In Scranton should spring
up in various counties.
- .TMC "WOLFS"
FronTtcOlyphant Record.
The mjfmMlcan forces of the city of
Scranton ure somewhat torn. The party
will not, present an unbroken phalanx to
the enemy In the coming election. And
yet. to the calm observer, there Is very
little doubt but the Rlpple-Wllllams-Wld-mayer
ticket will be elected.' The kick
ers are good shouters. but they have been
at the-buslness for so long a time that the
elector-. well versed In their tactics
andae,inot to be scared by the cry of
Vwojf fC Emergencies bring foes together,
and to tho:ie familiar with the. politics of
the KlectrSe City for the past few years,
it is a ludicrous spectacle to see old foes
now Joining hands to cry down stanch
followers of the Grand Old Party. The
men chosen by the party at the regularly
called convention, are excellent men. They
are worth v or Implicit confidence. Their
record will bear investigation, anc' on for
mer occasions have they served the party
with credit and honor. Kx-Mayor Ripple
made an excellent executive n the city ten
yenrs ago, and today he Is better equipped
for the mayoralty of Scranton thanvor.
The electors of the Klectrlc City will con
sult their Interests by seeing him and hU
peers elected.
HOW Till: DEMOCRATS VIF.W IT.
From the Wilkes-Harre News-Dealer.
Democrats of Lackawanna county ought
to heartily rejoice at the accession of Con
gressman Scranton with his Journal, and
the influence It exerts to their ranks. It
Is no longer a matter of doubt, that he Is
opposed to Republicanism, as it Is car
ried out In that county, under Connell,
and his best effort and service will be ren
dered In behalf or the Democratic city
ticket. We congratulate Lackawanna
Democrats on the valuable aid and sup
port they will secure In Congressman
Scranton.
JOE AS A DEMOCRAT.
From the Wllkes-Barre Record.
The fight between the Connell and the
Scranton factions Is getlng pretty hot
In our neighbor city. Congressman
Scranton's paper has bolted the Repub
lican ticket squarely, charges fraud-and
corruption In the election of the Ripple
delgates anil Is doing Its best to defeat the
regular nominees. The Scranton Trib
une, on the other hand, has stepped into
the breach and is putting up a strong de
fense against Mr. Scranton's accusations.
