Interest on Public Funds
There cannot be two honest sides to
he proposition thnt Interest on public

from the state treasurer the power

The treasurer of the city of Scranton
receives a. salary or $4,000 a year,' to
gether with enough legitimate commis
sions to make his income exceed that
of a member of the national congress,
and almost equal to that of a member
of the national cabinet. Why should
he 'expect more pay than this? Why
Bhould there be objection from any
quarter to the enactment of a law
Which would make it certain that the
city would hereafter receive interest
on its deposited funds?
Let Us hear from the people on this
subject, now that "reform" is the order
of the day.
The Republican party needs every
honest Vote it can get; but it can well
pare deliberate and premeditated
traitors,
For National Defense.
Tht decision of the house committee
on naval affairs to recommend the
building of six new battleships and fif
teen torpedo boats will be approved by
the country as a wise and timely ac
tion. To be sure, it means t,he expen
diture of $40,000,000 at a time when the
treasury has very little money to spare,
yet even this circumstance Is out
weighed by the fact that $40,00,000 spent
now in strengthening our small navy
may and probably will be the ultimate
means of saving ten times as much to
the country in case of trouble.
Taken in connection with the action
of the senate committee on fortifica
tions in reporting favorably the Squire
bill appropriating $80,000,000 for coast
defenses, the house committee's action
Indicates that the lesson of recent
events has nut gone to wuste. No
doubt the peace-at-any-prlce element
will object to these measures as evinc
ing an unjustifiable catering to the
brutalism called war. Words to this
effect have, in fact, already been
spoken in reference to the matter. But
they do not voice a majority or even a
respectable minority sentiment.
Those who are willing to look at facts
as they are, realize full well that while
It sounds nice to talk about arbitration
superseding "the grim arbitrament of
war," and 'about the rule of reason
gaining the ascendancy over the rule
of brute force, the time has not been
reached In the history of mankind when
any self-respecting nation can afford
to discard its warships and its cannon.
We do not look for that time to come
during this or the ensuing generation.
Our children, like ourselves, will, in in
ternational politics, exercise authority
to the extent that they can command
' it, and no further. The musket and
the Catling gun are yet and will for
many years to come be the foundation
stones of national prestige and the bul
warks of national Bafety.
Orators may tickle the fancy by as
serting otherwise, but their beautiful
talk does not alter th cold and Im
placable fact. Hence we cannot afford
to huve either an inadequate navy or a
defenseless frontier.
Tho Democratic notion of munit lpnl
reform In this city evidently is that it
is a good tiling- so long as It btays away
from home.
Fixing the Issues.
That the administration Democrats
would like to luy down the Issues uixni
which next fall' presidential battle will
be fought Is nutural enough. There aiv
some things that they don't want men
tioned. They don't, for example, want
much said about the tariff, because that
might lead the Republicans to remind
the country that the last throe years
of Democratic tariff tinkering have cost
It more than the entire prosecution of
the war to rave the L'uion. If the ad
ministration IJ oerats can. have their
way, the tariff will not be an issue In
the next rainpniKn.
Another thlni? which they would like
to keep in the background n much-as
possible Is t'lcvvUiid'H foreign policy.
Except la the Venezuelan Issue, which
he was forced to take up or else lone
for his party every vestlse of hope, the
president has in his conduct of foreign
affairs, been notoriously unfortunate
and un-American. The administration
Democrats would be pleased if nothing
were said in tho next campaign nbout
Mr. Cleveland's outrageous treatment
of Hawaii. They would relish the
complete suppression of Queen I.ll.
They would (float over the occulation
of Paramount Commissioner Blount.
Nor would they care to have much said
about Armenia or Corinto or the way
tit-out Britain buncoed us In the Beh
rlng sea business, or about Bayard.
These are themes they would delight
not to dwell on.
Finally, we have our doubts whether
any real earnest Democrat, If he hud
the power of covering up those things
in ills party's recent record which might
prove embaiTuaslng to him on the
Btuinp, would want to go before the
people la an attempt to explain or ex
tenuate the three issues of bonds since
Cleveland wus elected president. We
suspec t that It would prove a great re
lief to the Democratic party It' it could
make the country forget that. In a time
of profound peace following a period
of unexampled national prosperity ns
exemplified during the administration
of Benjamin Harrison, it had reversed
the Republican policy of surplus accu
mulating and tho paying off of the na
tional debt, and had added to the debt
of the nation, in principal and Interest,
almost half a billion dollars in three
years.
Fortunately, the Republican national
convention will meet first, and can fix
the issues to suit Itself. It is not likely
that the silver ciuestlon will cause it
to be deflected from a merited arraign
ment of Democracy's manifold dere
lictions. Bayard himself will soon drop out of
sight; the point in censuring him is for
future reference.
Through College While You Wait.
The proposition of the faculty of
Harvard college to shorten the college
term to three years has been hailed by
suggestive marks of popular favor.
There can be no gainsaya that radi
calism is now dominant lrj educational
circles. Not content with discarding
the classics and insisting upon the co
education of the sexes, this spirit of re
volt against time-honored traditions
has undertaken to reduce by twenty
five per cent, the period necessary to
the acquisition of the baccalaureate de
gree, and the mention of this change,
far from challenging spirited opposi
tion, meets with almost unanimous
acquiescence. Truly, ours Is the elec
tric age, when speed and tlme-st 'ing
boldly outweigh considerations of thor
oughness. There can be no objection to acad
emies and high schools adapting their
courses of study to accommodate the
great American principle of hustle.
These are popular institutions, which
from their nature ought to reflect with
accuracy the caprices of the rabble. If
it be the wish of Tom, Dick and Harry
to get through the public schools and
then through the seminary or academy
at such a high-pressure rate of speed
that when they finally emerge their
heads buzz and ache with the Ill-digested
conglomeration of facts crammed
into them, so to speak, on the wing, that
certainly is their affair and they must
face the consequences. The public. In
their case, can simply hope for the
dawning of a wiser day.
But from our Kreat universities, like
Yale and Harvard and Cornell, it seems
to us that we have a right to expect
some measure of real regard for
scholarship and some freedom from
the dominant Vice of "the pace thnt
kills." If these, too, are to enter the
general scramble, and enst off every
elegant vestige of culture in the fran
tic endeavor to strip for fast racing,
where shall we loyk for true leanii.it;?
Must sprinting wupersede thinking r.s
the rule of our American higher inrtl
tlltiuns of learning?
Time Is vindicating the piedietion
that the organization of the senate by
Republicans without a safe reserve ma
jority would prove a great political mis
take. A Prostitution of Justice.
Sharp and apparently deserved criti
cism Is heard with reference to the
sentence passed by a Washington court
on Miss Elizabeth Flagler. The facts
are as follows: One year ago Miss
Flagler saw a little colored boy In her
father's yard, stealing a pear. She shot
at the boy and killed him.
She was indicted for manslaughter,
tried and convicted. Before the oblig
ing court called her up for sentence it
notitled the young woman's father to
have $.'i00 In cash ready. Then it
opened a half-hour earlier than usual,
to avoid a crowd, and after imposing a
tWO fine, sentenced the prisoner to three
hours in jail. She was taken to prison
in her father's carriage, and served her
sentence In the matron's room, where
her friends gave her a reception. Af
terward, she was entertained at a swell
luncheon.
The Chicago IJecord truthfully ob
serves: "It is just such sentences as
this that breed distrust in the efficacy
and justice of the courts. Suppose the
colored boy had been the one who flew
into an 'ungovernable passion' and shot
the girt Would he have been treated
in this fashion? If he had got off with
three years' Incarceration Instead of
three hours In Jail, It would have been
because the court had consideration fcr
his extreme youth. The sentence was
worse than a farce. It was one of those
deliberate defeats of Justice which cre
ate suspicion as tr the Integrity of Un
law and encourag" further wrong-doing."
The jude who thus prostituted l.ls
high office to oblige an aristocratic
family should be Impeached. His imle
fcurlble action needs flinrp correction.
If the facts wne as Spain allig.-s,
what object would there be In muz
zling the Cubau col respondents?
Hemp Neckties tor BooJlers
An Innova'lcn which may work for
good has been made by the Washing
ton Reform club of Cleveland. O. In
that city a notoriously unfair fifty-year
street railway franchise crdinanc- Is
pending and the Reform club lh- other
day avvolnted u committee to notify
the .-ounciluie-i tha. it would hung the
first one of their number who should
vote for that ordinance.
H-rhups this method of lnlluem-lng
leal.-lation Is a trifle drastic, but it is
open to the recommendation of i tiaiirlit
forwardness. It gives the victim amnio
warning. It puts the alternatives
fairly and frankly before him; honesty
or hanging. If. then, he deliberately
chooses the latter. Is not his blood on
his own head?
This Cleveland proceeding was
doubtless copied from an episode hi
Denver, some years ago, when upon the
night appointed for the final vote on a
fraudulent franchise, several hundred
of the best citizens, each uinied with
a coll of hempen rope, visited th" coun
cil chamber and fat throu-:hoi:t the
deliberations. They said nothing; hut
somehow when the franc hise mr.u- up
every member voted agulr.at it.
l'erhai.s a little of the Deliver detcr-
I minution in the protection of public
i rights would not come In uiniss In
Seianton.
The efforts nf the State Liquor league
to wipe out the speak-caslw. in
Luzerne county will command close at
tention in Lackawanna county. We
perhaps do not have as large a ratio of
sm'h places as they have in Luzerne,
but we have more Hum enough. The
licensed dealer Is the one who sufiers
most by Illegal sales of liquor. It Is to
the Interest of his poeketbonk that the
"hole-in-the-wall" be closed.
The York Dispatch, one of the most
progressive newspapers In the state, Is
sued on Thursday an Industrial num
ber of twenty-four pages which would
do credit to the largest city journals.
It Is a splendid example of 'Pennsylva
nia energy.
The series of Illustrated letters on
Yellowstone park, begun today, will, we
trust, prove un Interesting feature of
the Saturday Tribune. The writer of
them,Mr. Richmond, has an appreci
ative eye for the beauties of nature
and a skilful j)en In their description.
One would think that a mnu who had
received :iU0,00U from his party would
not haggle over $10.50. But Mr. Scran
ton seems to be an exception to most
rules. -
QUAY, HASTIXOS AM) CAMERON
"l'enn," In Philadelphia Bulletin.
According to the plans of Senator Quay,
It Is his Intention to hnvo Governor Bant
ings perform the nominating oratory at
St llouls, when Pennsylvania presents
the name of its "favorite son" to the na
tional convention. Hastings distinguished
himself on the platform of the lleago
auditorium eight years ago on behalf of
John Sherman, to whom tpiny had given
most of the delegates from this state.
He will perform thi- function for Quay
well if he shall do it with anything like
the vim an.l the ring which he put . Into
his speech for Sherman. Yet it will le
