The Wrong and the Right Man lor
State Chairman.
There Is an apparently well authenti
cated rumor thut Senator William H.
Andrews, of Crawford c-ounty, who was
Btato chairman durinsc the Iwlanmtor
campaign, asplrea to a re-eUftion to
that position In mieMWlon to Senator
Quuy, who is credited with a desire to
surrender It. It 1h ulso reported that
Mr. Andrews will, In his present ambi
tion, have the senator's cordial support.
We are loath to believe thut the lutf
ter clause In this Interesting Informa
tion Is accurate. If It Is. it will excite
antagonisms as unnecessary as they
will be inevitable. .Senator Quay can
thunk Andrews as muoh as any other
man for the light made upon his leader
ship last summer, and If anything, can
cause a general re-openlng of that fight
it will be Just such a programme as Is
hinted nt In connection with the an
nouncement of Andrews' latest candi
dacy. If Andrews, In his own name
and with his own strength, can secure
the chairmanship, well and good; hut
we much misjudge the temper of the
party If It will submit without resist
ance to the forcing of this objectionable
candidate upon It contrary to its will.
The friends of Senator Quay who wish
to preserve unbroken the present gen
eral acquiescence In his leadership can
give no better proof of their fidelity to
the sometimes too generous man from
Beaver than by informing him of the
feeling against Andrews and by admon
ishing him of the grotestiueness of put
ting at the head of the reform cam
paign In this state the man of all men
who In his personality and methods pre
sents the most conspicuous evidence of
the need of reform in Pennsylvania
politics. No doubt Quay feels under
obligations to Andrews and wishes to
retain his friendship; but there should
be ways' and means without courting
the risk of another party uprising.
Why not elevate to the chairmanship
a clean and -tried man like ex-Lleuten-ant
Governor Watres? The suggestion
of hli name is an excellent one.
The Idea that any old thing Is good
enough for vice-president should be ef
fectually exploded at St. Louis.
The True Condition of Canada.
A Montreal correspondent of the Sun
draws a picture of affairs in Canada
which sheds new Jlght upon the political
situation In the now greatly perturbed
dominion. "Nominally," says he, "we
have a representative system, but the
present government, which la without
exception the greatest concentration of
knavery which exists In the form of a
government in any civilised nation of
the present time, has retained power
thrpugh a long number of years by a
systematic method Of Drlbery,.bygarry--manderlng
constituencies, and ' by
springing on elections unexpect
edly, as in the last general
election In '91, when they ad
vised the governor general to dissolve
parliament, on the pretence that they
wished to be empowered by the people
to negotiate a reciprocity treaty" with
the United States. That this was a pre
tence subsequent events proved, as all
that ever came of the tveaty negotia
tions was the celebrated three-minute
Interview which one or two members of
the Canadian government had with Mr.
Blaine at Washlpgton. During the first
session of the new parliament the facts
In connection with the McOreevy scan
dal came out, and then was revealed
the true reason why the elections had
been brought on. It wa in order that
the government might snatch a verdict
from the electors before' Ihey became
.cognisant of the facts in connection
with that celebrated episode."
The present dilemma In Canada owes
its origin to the fact that the dominion
parliament has made up Its mind, over
the head of the provincial legislature
of Manitoba and against the over
whelming wish of the people, of that
province, to establish in Manitoba at
public expense separate . parochial
schools, In addition to the public schools
valready in operation. It Is the forcing
of this programme which, has .caused
Manitoba to threaten Mctsilon, 'anff
MWHIUNHk
.1
Ahlch has given recent stimulus to the
:alk of an Independent Republic of
Canada. This talk as yet Is vague and
pasmodic, but if the Sun's Informant
3 a truthful one. it may yet gain se
lous headway. Concerning the flnan
lal condition of the dominion this In
.cresting witness says: .
"Members of the government, officers
if the civil service, railway magnates
.vho luxuriate with the millions that
tnve been presented to them by the
;overnment, wealthy manufacturers
.vho have been made millionaires by
act of parliament, and bankers who
.ontrol the capital of the country all
represent Canada as prosperous and as
elng the brightest gem In the British
rown. But these are all top dogs.
They are all very proud and happy, and,
is Mark Twain said about the Prince
f Wales, they ought to be, they have
good, situations. I'nderneath all this,
however, among the tolling masses who
produce the wealth of the country,
among the farmers und worklngmcn. In
many cases there is a condition of dis
tress bordering on degpulr. Relief and
chuittablo associations In the various
cities report thut they have never hud
so many applications for assistance as
during the present winter, and this not
from the lazy and undeserving, but from
those who are out of employment, and
would gladly work if they could get
any to do.' In the rural districts the
greatest scarcity of money exists. The
flnunce minister proposes to add $3,000,
000 to our ulreudy enormous debt to
fortify the frontier and to make com
plete that Isolation which he calls
'splendid,' but which, so far as Canada
is concerned. Is fast becoming un isola
tion of misery and poverty. To
thoughtful people who are uble to dis
tinguish between the name of a thing
and its quality, who do nut think that
servility constitutes loyalty, or that
patriotism consists in a total disregard
of their own Interests, the situation is
assuming a giuvn aspect. So far us On
tario and Manitoba are concerned there
is a growing sentiment that annexation
to' the United States would be the best
solution of the difficulty. That con
federation can hold together on pres
ent lines much longer Is Impossible."
But it takes two to make a bargain.
We suspoct that the United States Is not
anxious to increase its Indigent popu
lation and Its debt merely In order to
swell the number of square miles of its
art a.
Our exports of breadstuff for Febru
ary were nearly double what they were
a year ago. The certainty of Republi
can restoration is evidently imparting
to business a more hopeful und whole
Home tone.
Harrison a Possibility.
Governor Matthews, of Indiana, Is
quoted us having declared his belief
that (Jeueral Harrison will be nominat
ed at St. Louis. "I should not be a bit
surprised," sulil he, "If the convention
is stampeded for him."
This Is the opinion of a Democrat and
a rival. Yet it has many Republican
Indorsers. Among business men espe
cially the feeling for General Harri
son is one of marked friendliness and
confidence. They argue that while any
of the other Republicans probably
might make a safe president, the In
diana man certainly would. His rec
ord Is a known quantity. His ability
In that office Is not conjectural.
There is also another strong factor
pointing to the possibility of Hurrison's
nomination, notwithstanding his with
drawal. The people, In delusion, turned
him out In 1892. A good many pf them
are now conscience-smitten and want
to square accounts by putting him back
In again. Should the politicians, next
June, get deadlocked among their fa
vorite son booms, what could be more
natural than that the people should
turn to Harrison, as the logical and
tested solution of the whole problem?
It will do no harm to keep General
Harrison's name in mind. And how he
would run!
Oreater Ootham.
All that Is now required to make
"Oreater Gotham" a certainty Is the
gubernatorial signature to the author
izing bill and the taking out of a new
city charter. When this shall be done,
the metropolis of the New World will, on
Jan. 1, 1S98, become In population the
second largest city in the world, and In
area, we believe, the first. Under the
terms of the measure which last week
passed the Albany legislature, the new
municipality will include the following
towns and cities:

The above population ratings are ac
cording to the local census of 1894. By
1900 the aggregate population Is likely
to be Jarger than the total population
of. the thirteen original colonies at the
beginning" of "the Hsvolatlonary wr,
and larger than the present population
of any state, except New York, Penn
sylvania, Illinois and Ohio. Just how
such a mass of urban complexities shall
be governed- Is a problem. If the
"Greater New York" Is not ruled better
than the old New York has been ruled,
we Buspect that a good many citizens
will yet regret the consolidation.
Chauncey P. Black says he Is for
"Carlisle, Wilson, Olney or any dis
tinguished leader In or near the Cleve
land administration." Is Pattison, then,
so very repulsive? L

More About the Raines Bill.
. There will be some fut pickings In
Empire state politics if the Raines bill
i approved. That bill provides for .a
state-commissioner of excise at l.'.OflO
a year; a deputy at $4,000; a secretary
at .',000; a clerk at J1.000; fifty assist
ants at salaries yet to be fixed; deputy
for -New York county at $4,000; one for
Kings county at $.1,000; one for Erie at
$2,000; sixty v special agents at $1,200
apiece and sixty special attorneys at
.salaries not yet agreed upon. No Won
der the Democrats are fighting against
the placing of all this patronage In Re
publican hands. The bill would have
baen far stronger than It Is had it pro
vided for a bi-partisan commission of
excise Judges, on the lines of the Hack
enberg bill. " ;
Another feature of this bill which will
be worthy of close study Is Its unquali
fied granting of licenses to all who can
pay the price. There is no limitation
upon the number of license holders In a
given community; neither Is there to
be any holding of court to pass upon
the character of applicants. The whole
question is put on the simple plane of a
money qualification; restriction is
achieved through the natural dread of
too much competition. While at first
glance this seems a blunt way of put
ting things, it is no doubt cuite as
logical as the method pursued under
the Brooks law, and a good deal less
likely to cause Ill-feeling.
The liquor men cf New York state,
and their friends, who oppose the meas
ure, talk of appearing In person, 100.000
strong, before Governor Morton, with
a :etltlon for n veto. This would pre
sent a good opportunity to study human
nature.
It would be an Interesting coincidence
if the opposing presidential nominees
should be McKinley and Wilson.
Governor Morton no doubt la of the
opinion that it "never Raines but it
pours."
T1IE PATTISON BOOM.
"I'enn," In Philadelphia Bulletin.
Robert H. Putilson'8 namb us a presi
dential candidate ut Chicago Is as rmi"ii
of a possibility as that of any other of ihe
men whom the Uemocruls lire tulklng over
In a careless, huppy-ao-luck way. 8luvwd
old Jerry Cluck once said of Pattison when
hi Htirrlsburg: "Thut young man is
dimming of the presidency, und he is
teking care never to do anything that
will be quoted against him ill l'c?rul
politics." The ex-governur still has
scores of Philadelphia friends who firm
ly believe thut destiny will eventually
head htm III that direction and that he
Ktlll hus ut least six presidential elections
In which he may stand u chance at it
before he becomes as old as Allison, Mor
ton and Morrison now are.
It has fnqucntly been sulci that Patti
son could have had the nominatiou nt
Chicago In IW2 If William F. Harrity, in
hkidling the Penusiylvunia delegation,
had nut been Intent on looking out only
for his own Interests. There was tome at
t. m:t to lodge this Idea in Paulson's
mind, but prune to suspicion us he is,
he has never been known to Indicate that
It had taken root there. if course, thero
is no doubt that the New York delegation,
Tammany and pretty much all of the
anti-iTeveland outfit, on that occasion
would have gone over to Paulson if ilar
rliy had put him In nomlnutlou. Hut
Harrity had been committed to Cleveland
from the start; he was one of the very
Hist Democrats In the country to see the
popular reaction that was settling in 'or
him lifter Hill had overreaced himself
with his snap game In New York; at least
a fourth of the Pennsylvania delegation
were plotting against Harrity under the
personal direction of Wallace, and Will
iam i'. Whitney hud tnken him Into his
confidence in the making of the Cleveland
plans. Of course, 4 here would have been
a sort of absolution for Harrity if he hud
taken advantage of un opportunity for
his personal friend and associate in his
own stute, but It is questionable whether
there was ever a time In that week of In
trigue in the Windy City when the oppor
tunity mny be fairly said to have been
at hand. Campbell, Holes, (liny und Pal
mer ull hail the same bait thrust at them
by I ho Hill men, and there was more se
rious Interest In them as possibilities than
there was In Pattison, who seemed to have
lltllo personal utirucllon for anybody in
the convention outside of the Pennsylva
nlans. Indued, some of the Peunsylva
nlans who were most strenuous In want
ing his name sprung on the delegates
were both his and liarrity's worst ene
mies. -::-
Thure has never been much doubt in
the minds of cool and disinterested men
who looked on at Chicago in June, 1892.
und kept the run of the game in the vari
ous "headquarters." that it waa far less
possible to beat Cleveland in that conven
tion than it had been eight years before,
when he was first nominated at Chicago.
Whitney hail many more strings to pull
than Manning had on that occasion, und
Harrity in '92 recollected how he saw t lie
Hendricks combination vanish into thin
ulr when some of his colleagues went up
with It. If he had attempted to set up
Pattison, the chances were not In fifty
that he would not have shared the same
fate as Hendricks in 184.
There is no likelihood that Harrity will
have any serious trouble In giving Penn
sylvania delegation to Pattison this year.
The ex-governor has hardly reached the
stage of a national reputation, but he is
eeriulnly the best known Democrat of
Pennsylvania outside of the state since
Handall's time. There Is a good deal of
solid respect for him In his party, even
among those who have been his factional
opponents. With Cleveland out of the
race there would be as much of an oppor
tunity for Pattison as there is now likely
to be for any other candidate. Pattison's
only chance would come, as it always did
In the years of his luck, In the event of a
big Republican blunder.
And yet there Is no man In the Demo
cratic party who in some respects would
suit them better. His tariff opinions have
been eminently "safe;" on the silver ques
Hon he has no "record" ut all, and the
last time an Interrogation on that podnt
was put to him with the purpose of
printing his answer ho refused to say
anything that would "commit" him to
any views; he has been a reformer, but
he believes In turning Republicans out of
office; he Is a Methodist, but he has kept
his political conscience In the custody
first of .Mr. Cassidy and Mr. Harrity, both
eminent Homan Catholics; he has been
president of a bank, but he has tuken
care not to offend Democrats who do not
share national bank Ideas; he can box
all the points of the Democratic compass
between William M.SIngerly and Herbert,
Welsh, ami he can look as solemn as Sam
uel J. Tllden when on public dress parade,
and talk as phititudlnotisly as (.rover
Cleveland himself. He hus the same sim
ple, honest, democratic habits that Cleve
land has; always has led a clean personal
life lu his comings anil goings; has dona
veiy lltt' , at f e bar since he has eniageij
in picking up a livelihood along with ;h
other ambitious young men whom Lewis
C. Cassidy sent into the court from time
to time like hungry clubs, and has not
greatly increased the quantum of scholar
ship that came to him In a central high
school course, his reading being chiefly on
lines relating to politics, finance, social
science and his composition smacking a
little too much of the demagogue rather
than of the thinker.
Whatever may become of his presiden
tial boom-under Hanlty s direetlnn, those
who think thut the oomplete downfall of
Pattison's "luck" In the Warwick cam
paign meant his politically extinction nro
likely ultimately to find themselves mis
taken, .The next quarter of a century will
probably scerhim a .far tor In eltv and
state uffalrs, and a stronger figure biv thu
national horizon. In 18X0 gingerly pro
claimed that the young upstart would be
sent back Into private life for having
been a fool In the controller's olfice. and
it has often amused me to think of the
day when 1 saw Paulson holiv folluwlu
up the publisher of the Record In a car
riage with a warrant for libel before old
Judge Klndlay. In 1883 A. K. McClure
announced with oracular gravity nnd ele
giac emphasis that the youthful governor
had by making Cassidy his attorney gen
eral signed bis death warrant as a pub
lic ehsreater In Pennsylvania, und that
there was nothing left to do but to put
an appropriate head-stone over the folly
of the rash young man.
I'n ISSfi he sat In the executive mansion
nlmost alone on the eve of the Demnvrut
ic convention which put Hlaek in nomina
tion for governor, hardly a Dcmo.-rat
deigning to notice hlin as an adviser;
when he came back to Philadelphia there
was. apparently, no opening for him in
politics for many a Ions year to com;
but only four years later. Mr. Harrity per
formed thut brilliant piece of manage
ment ut Hcranton. by which the veteran
Wallace was completely outwitted and
outgeneralled In person, nnd by which
Pattison again became governor before
he was past ft). I venture to say that there
will be no man who will land on his fc-t

action comes about some of these days

England learns a lesson In the face of
danger. After a series of appalling dis
asters and warned by threat of Interna
tional complications, the government has
undertaken an enlargement of the naval
strength of the empire at a cost of more
than lluo.Wo.uoo. Although the Hrltish navy
far exceeds in rhlps, guns and men that
of any other country on the globe. It
total strength Is felt to lie unequal to the
strain that might be put upon it by a com
bination of any two great power.
The world ha entered upon an era cf
naval architecture. New materials, im
proved machinery, powerful and novel
devices all tending toward Increase of
speed and quicker and more decided re.
suUa in both attack and defense, prove
that tha physical science are largely en
grossed with this division of a most Im
portant problem in the existence and
progress of nations. The fulled State
alone seem indifferent to what this new
era may forebode. Vet there Is no coun
try on the globe whose vital Interests are
more exposed to attack on the water aide,
and none 1e.su capable proportionally of
driving an enemy back from unprotected
harbors or of meeting a foe of formidable
csj.raeter on the high seas except to suffer
disgrace or defeat.
