REPUBLICAN STATE CONVENTION.
(To the Republican electors of Pennsylva
. nla.
The Republicans of Pennsylvania, by
their duly rhonen representatives, will
meet In state convention Thursday, April
EI, 1896. at 10 o'clock u. m., In tht opera
house, city of Harrisuurtr. for the pur
pose of nominating two canillrtuu-s for
representative-at-large In congress anil
thirty-two candidates for presidential
electors, the selection of eight delegates-at-large
to h Ht-publicun natlonul con
vention, and for the transaction of such
other business as muy be presented.
By order of the state committee.
M. S. Quay,
Attest: Chairman.
Jere B. Rex,
W. R. Andrews,
Secretaries.
The point Is well taken that if the
next legislature Is to be a reform leg
islature, the people In the various dis
tricts should not fall to elect to It real
reformers.
Last Night's Riot
The mob at Providence last night,
which assailed Ruthven, was less con
siderate of women than was the Dun
more mob. The latter permitted the
women to depart In peace, probably In
deference to Peter Hobday's double
barreled shot gun. But the Providence
hoodlums surrounded a street car In
which three women were seated, and
stoned It until each one of them hud to
lie down Hat on the car lloor. Their
escape from serious InJ'iry was marvel
ous, but no thanks for this fuct ure due
to the hoodlums. That the latter did
Hot kill every defenceless Woinun ill
the cur was not their fault. They did
all they could t udil minder to their
other crime of riot.
It may well be asked, in tills connec
tion, where-the police force were. With
every reason to expert trouble. It ap
pears thut only two officers were within
KlKht, und these UKulnst the hundreds
of rioters were pructicully powerless.
If mob rule Is to follow this fellow
Ruthven wherever he goeB, then It
would seem to become the duty of the
authorities to discover either whether
he Is not a, nuisance, deserving of sup
pression, or whether If he have a right
:o speak without molestation in public
vlaces, he should not also have the
Ight of ample legal protection. The
fact thut the police have not tried to
prevent him from speaking places upon
them tho responsibility of seeing that
'he Is accorded ample protection from
assault.'
One thing at least Is sure. The peace
and good order of the city of Hcranton
must be preserved, no matter who gets
hurt in the preserving of It. Vpon that
proposition every decent Protestant
and every decent Catholic cun unite.
One or two more riots like the one In
Dunmore last week and the one in
Providence last night will he sufficient
to set In motion forces in this commu
nity which will insure the protection
of life and limb In every lawful right.
The people of Pittsburg seem to think
that as between a home "boss" and a
"boss" from an adjoining county there
Isn't enough difference to warrant a
Change.
Scranton's New Hotel.
The formal opening, one week from
tomorrow, of the magnificent new Hotel
Jenny n will be an event of more than
ordinary significance to Scranton. It
will overcome a want which has for
many years, und especially during the
last few years, with their rapid devel
opment, been conspicuously in evidence
the want of a thoroughly modern
public place) of refreshment and abode
ample enough to give entire accom
modation to the Increasing volume of
transient guests whom business or
pleasure calls temporarily to our city.
Not only will the new structure, in
sice, design, and appointments, be a
credit to the Scranton of today it will
continue to be that for many years to
come. The courage which has prompt
ed Mr. John Jermyn to Invest In a pro
ject of this kind a sum of money which
Is In itself a large fortune even In this
day of great possessions Is a signal tes
timonial both to the builder's personal
enterprise and to the commercial pros
pects of this community. Nor should
Mr. Godfrey's Bhare in the project's
completion escape grateful recognition.
He, too, has assumed a risk which
onlv boundless fnJth In thtr city's nossl-
bllltles would justify; and, with Mr.
Jermyn, has .given to the world another
evidence of the spirit which has made
Scranton what it Is.
That the faith of these enterprising
gentlemen, in wits voiiuiiucu siunin ui
this thrifty metropolis of the anthra
cite region is not misplaced we firmly
believe. One cannot be blind to the
many evidences of. local development
which are arising on every hand. But
even if these evidences were less, con
spicuous than they are; the presence' In
the community of men of wealth so will
Ins; as are the great majority of our
rich cltlsens to put their resources' at
the command of worthy new. Institu
tions would compel iur and steady
municipal growth. It Is with pleasure
thut each new step in Scranton's for
ward progress is recorded; . and the
Hotel Jermyn is certainly u long step
In this direction.
Our esteemed contemporary, ' the
Truth, announces that It has secured
exclusively the services of Colonel J
Armoy Knox, the founder of Texas Sitt
ings and later the general manager of
the Brockton, Mass., Times. Colonel
Knox will contribute to the columns of
our enterprising neighbor a dully col
umn of.. "Echoes of Every-day Life,"
Into' which he will introduce the wit,
humor and pathos which made his Sitt
ings known and relished the world over.
Colonel Knox is a brilliant Journalist,
a delightful raconteur and a man of
Ideas. We bid him welcome.
Farewell to Rev. Dr. Pearce.
Before the retiring pastor of Elm Park
church 'shakes the dust of Scranton
from his feet, we desire to say, in be
half of the community to which he has
for five notable years so devotedly mln-
Isterpd, a few words of farewell.
The pastorate of Rev. Dr. Pearce will
always be remembered by the people of
Scranton, Irrespective of denomination'
ul lines, with most pleasant and affec
tionate recollections. To be sure, he su
perlntended the three constructions of
Elm Purk church, the finest temple of
worship In Methodism, into which he
Introduced many of Its most felicitous
architectural and structural ideas, and
that will always be a monument to his
memory, the like of which few pastors,
In any denomination, are privileged to
contemplate. But It Isn't so much that
fuct which has endeured Dr. Pearce to
us. And, come to think of It, we do not
know If It be any one fact or group of
fuels which can be singled out from all
the rest and put Into cold type. We
only know that his pastorate has been
one of such genuine and honest progress
along the best lines of church work that
somehow the Idea of losing him rusts
a gloom over the whole circle of his
friends, none the less real for being not
eusliy translatable Into words.
A time may come In Methodism when
the time limit will be obliterated. This
would mean that congregations which
have Dr. Pearces would proceed to mo
nopolize the best men in the Methodist
ministry. Whether such a state of uf
falrs would' be desirable to Methodism
as a whole Is not for laymen like us to
discuss. We only know that the con
gregation on Franklin street in Wllkes-
Barre Is to be most sincerely congratu
lated. If the people do not take the trouble
to elect trustworthy members of the
state legislature by direct ballot, how
could they be expected, after the novl
ty hud worn off, to elect decent 1'nlted
States senators by direct bullot? The
fault, men and brethren, is nut In the
system, but In the electors who ubuse
that system and make of it, us they
will muke of uny other system, a
mockery.
Do Something; for Cuba.
The unuuls of American legislation
contain no more hiimlliuting episode
thun the senate's recent treutment of
tile Cubun issue. Each duy of addi
tional delay Is a duy of shume fur the
senators who, ul'ter dungllng before
the Cubun belligerents the hope of rec
ognition und morul uid, suddeuly
snutched it away because the hucksters
and Jobbers who measure patriot ism
by the fiuctuutlons of the stock ex
change took fright at the antics of
the Spanish hotheads and set up a
howl fur retreut.
It Is asserted in the dispatches from
Washington that although; the house
conference committee has agreed to ac
cept the Cuban resolutions as they originally-
passed the senate, the chief
members of that committee refuse to
rail the subject up until there shall
be a lull In routine business, which
may or may not be for weeks. In the
meantime, the monster who has charge
of Spain's armies In Culm, gaining
courage from congress' dalliance, pro
claims anew that he will henceforth
treat all captured Insurgents us Incen
diaries and bandits, which means thut
they will be butchered at sight. Yet
In the face of this official pronounce
ment. General Weyler hns the unblush
ing effrontery to give out, at Havana,
a Pecksnilliun Interview, In which he
declares that he has all along had con
fidence In the sober, practical nature of
the American people, and expects them
yet to applaud his resort to the tactics
of the middle ages in the attempt to
forge In blood new fetters upon a long
suffering people.
Small wonder is it that "many members
of congress" we quote from a Wash
ington letter to the Philadelphia Press
"are disgusted with the way the Cu
ban question has been managed In the
house." We may well believe that "a
very large majority of the members of
the house," representing, as they do,
the overwhelming sentiment of their
constituents, "are anxious to pass the
senate resolution," and that speedily.
All the more urgent is the necessity for
final action in View of the news from
Havana that a crisis In the Cuban war
for independence is at hand. With Cen
tral Maceo and a force of 25,000 well
armed insurgents moving through the
provinces of Havana and Plnar del Rio,
toward the 45,000 Spanish troops that lie
within the limits 'of the same territory,
a decisive battle may at any moment be
fought. The point for Americans to
consider is whether it shall be fought
before the American nation shall have
gone on record In behalf of the cause of
Cuban freedom In its hour of extreme
need, or whether our action shall be de
ferred until it can neither do Cuba any
real good nor Spain any actual harm.
If any fact Is plain beyond mistake it
is that Spanish sovereignty in the An
tilles, with Its unbroken record of ra
pine, extortion, cruelty and bloodshed,
Is an anachronism and an outrage. The
time has rome when the descendants of
the revolutionary fathers can without
violation of treaty obligations strike a
strong and a telling blow in behalf of a
struggling nation which Is seeking us
our sires once sought to free itself from
an odious tyranny. Such a blow might
disorganize the New York Stock ex
change. It might excite the gamblers
who speculate In human distress. It
might anger the hotheads of red-handed
Spain. It might worry the sissies and
cause perturbation among the mug
wumps. But it would be an act which
would win the cordial and undivided ap
proval of every, founder of this repub- ,
Ho, and It would go upon the page of
American history as a seemly reasser
tion of the vltul principles t American
government, made, as becomes men
without fear and without equivocation.
According to Walter Wellman, Mr.
Cleveland believes that he Is his party's
only hope. This Is eminently true. In
the past tense.
To Restrict Immigration.
That the will of the people is for a
closer restriction of Immigration, to the
end that no alien shall be permitted to
enter the United States who cannot,
when Inside It, support himself and
family and add something of value to
the citizenship which he augments, Is
nowadays conceded. All parties are
agreed on this point Even foreigners
themselves, after a residence here, per
ceive that It is to their own interest
as well as to the Interest of the native
born element, to shut out alien crimi
nals, paupers and hopeless illiterates
who now bring simply discredit, ex
pense and trouble upon the community
that shelters them.
The present congress is considering
two bills for the further exclusion of
immigrants. One. the Stoiie bill, puts
the duty of sifting would-be immigrants
upon the American consuls In foreign
ports. The candidate for certification
before one of these consuls Is required
to swear and to prove by evidence, if
necessary, that he has not been a con
vict or a felon, that he Is self-sustaining
und thut he is nut afflicted with any
contagious disease. The other bill, In
troduced by Senator Lodge, makes the
test of certification simply the ability
of the applicant to read and write the
language of his native land.
Some duubt has been cast upon the
ability of our consuls to perform this
work; but It would be well enough to
give them a trial. The purpose of for
eign certiflcatlun is to save unfit immi
grants the expense of a fruitless trip
across the Atlantic. Strictly speaking,
our duty begins and ends at the home
landing place, and the foreigner who
reuches the outer shore of the 1'nlted
States could fairly be made to take his
chances of getting through the bars.
It seems to us, however, that the Stone
and Lodge bills tuigiii successfully be
merged Into one sweeping measure of
restriction which would make It easier
for u camel to pass through the eye of
u needle than for an unlit alien to get
a certificate of admission into the great
republic.
.
If England, by grabbing the Soudun,
cun divert attention from less distant
blunders, it may be worth a small war.
At least, this Is probubly how Joseph
Chamberlain argues.
As a matter of precaution the man
who wants to win renown as a safe
guesser hud better discount the Gros
venor bureau's McKlnley estimates by
from 25 to SO per cent.
The murder route to fame would per
hups be less frequented than it Is If
there were fewer sensational news
papers. THK CANVASS JT TO DATE.

Cameron. They regard him as the weak

HERRING'S III.ACK EYE.
From tho Philadelphia Press.
Revenue Collector Grant Herring must
have been away from home, or attending
mure to his onu-lul duties than to politics,
when the Columbia county Democrats de
clared against the unit rule. It was a
rather surprising result, but It shows tnat
there are some soots lu the Democratic
quarters of the state where opuosltlo.1 to
tha unit rule Is stronger than the influence
of the omce-holders. Those who have
been making the del eat of this rule an
Issue lu the election of delegates to the
Democratic state convention have already
had a much better success than they could
have expected when they began their cam'
pulgn. About the only delegates that can
be leaked to In a body to support tne unit
rule are those from this city.
' TllK Gl NKKA1. OPINION.
From the Philadelphia Record.
The peculation of Greater New York,
as it will be under the provision of the
act of extension which has passed the
state legislature, is estimated at .H,2U0,UU0.
This will entitle It to rank as the second
city in the world in population. It has
long been the first earthly metropolis in
seir-estlmatton.

Attrclu.be cast: 4.03 a. m . for Tuesday,
March 31, 189.
A child born on this day will notice that
a jarge number of patriots whose claims
for honor have been brought before Mr.
Bailey, have evidently strayed from tho
mlstit counter.
The political bartv with a financial
Fcheme that falls to make the entiling but
elusive dollar roll in our direction will do
well to confine its efforts to s'niother
Issue.
The most enthusiastic "new women"
are generally those whose faces are sug
gestive of weaiher-beaten shingles.
It begins to look as though Providence
ought to be unnexed to Dunmore.
AJncchus' Advice
Do not take sides on the financial Issues,
Accumulate coin us rapidly as possible.
It Is more effective than argument.
