One week from this mornlnB Penn
sylvania Republicans will probably
know Just how Senator Quny and David
Murtln stand with rcforence to each
other. The Information will be Inter
esting. Why. Take Needless Risks '
Tho prediction of ex-Conirressmaii
Wolverton of Sunbury that there will
be a split In both the old parties over
the silver question and that Senator
Cameron will be nominated nnd elected
president by the discontented ones from
each of the great parties Is probably
far-fetched. We think he overestimates
the strength of the radicals who wish
nt one clip to turn the economic struc
ture up side down.
At the same time, It Is In our judg
ment apparent that the Republican
party bus need to be considerate of the
very large element in Its membership.
not only In the fur went, but In the
east as well, even here In Pennsylvania,
which Is not In favor of a contracted
currency resting for redemption solely
on gold. Four years ngo it declared
for bimetallism, by International ugree
ment. It cannot this year snfely do
less than this: and It would be run
ning a very serious and a very needless
risk If It were to undertake two months
hence to go the length from the Min
neapolis bimetallism plunk to a plunk
declaring radically for the gold single
standard. The war for gold Is of Dem
ocratic, origin, flrover Cleveland sturt
ted it. It Is essentially an administra
tion device, calculated to divert atten
tion from Democratic, blundering and
from the scrlou consequences of that
blundering anions the eople. There
fore, Republicans may with propriety
munu uui'k miu iei me uemocraue
brethren fight It out among themselves.
Republicans may differ as to the prop
er adjustment ot the currency, but
there Is no difference among them as
to the proposition that this government
should; have enough revenue to pay Its
expenses and afford reasonable pro
tection to American industry. There
fore, the 8t. Louis convention should
place its chief emphasis on the protec
tive tariff plnnk. To force from Its
ranks all who believe In fair play for
American silver would be to take risks
without reason.
Senator Quay stands as good as one
chance In three of being nominated at
St Louis. While this remains true.
Pennsylvania should stay by him.
Lecky on Democracy,
The English historian, Lecky, has Is
sued anew book, "Democracy and Lib
erty," which Is an argument against
popular government. His attitude to
ward the present world-wide trend In
the direction of political equality Is one
of philosophic, acquiescence but also of
personal contempt. "Of all forms of
Idolatry," lays he, "I know none more
Irrational or Ignoble than this blind
Worship of mere numbers." He does
not believe that Democracy necessarily
means greater liberty, "Equality," he
remarks, "la the idol of democracy, but,
with the Infinitely various capacities
and energies of men, this can only be
attained by constant, systematic,
stringent repression of their natural
development. Whenever natural , forces
have unrestricted play, Inequality Is
certain to ensue. Democracy destroys
the balance of opinions, Interests and
daises, on which constitutional liberty
mainly depends, and Its constant ten
dency la to Impair the efficiency and au
thority of parliaments, which 'have
hitherto proved the chief organs of
political' liberty."
This is not by any" means a new prop
osition, but It gains in Interest when we
reflect that It Is the mature expression
of a broad and profound student of our
own time, who has lived In the thick
of the democratic ferment and has had
exceptional opportunity to study the
experiment of popular, rule in dally
practice. Therel- a tinge of suggestive
sharpness to hlii, assertion, especially
Interesting to Americans, that" "the
voice of the people.V expressed at the
polls Is to many politicians the sum of
all wisdom, the supreme test of truth
or falsehood. It Is even more than this ;
It Is Invested with something- very like
the plrituaAsfnoaoy -which- theologians
have ascribed to baptism. It Is sup
posed to wash away all sin."
In a flense these comments, typical of
many in the book, are clever, but what
do they prove? Nothing directly; and
perhaps, ufter all. the only value is the
suggested thought that since demo
cracy Is Inevitably the order of the
day. an order not to be expunged by In
dividual contempt, the manly plan is to
get to work to put democracy at Its
btst. Things will not be Improved by
sitting back and cracking Jests at them.
There is an abundance of serious toil
for those who have a mind to shape
the experiment of popular rule toward
the largest possible consequences of
general good. Perhaps in our own
country the two greatest dangers are
Ignorance and fraud at elections. In
the Ideal republic there must be both
intelligence and honesty In the elector
ate and these forces must be In the
ascendancy- Lt Americans question
themselves wherein their own democ
racy falls short of this Ideal, and then
lay to it to correct the short coming.
"I have observed," says Uovernor
Hastings, "that. In several counties of
the state local candidates fasten them
selves upon the popularity of one or
the other of the presidential candidates
and thereby appear to make a good
deal more fuss about presidential pos
sibilities than really exists. In my
Judgment, Pennsylvania Republicans
should give loyal support to the Penn
sylvania candidate." Isn't that a fine
rebuke to the Hon. Christopher L. Ma
gee? . .
Safety Appliances in Travel.
During the seven years from 1SS8 to
ISM, 16,257, employes of American rail
roads were killed and 172.139 crippled,
malned and injured. In 18H3 the atten
tion of congress was called to the sub
ject, and the result was th enactment
of a law requiring comimnles to equip
their cars with safety couplers. The
law went Into partial effect the follow
ing year, and since then the proportion
of deaths and non-fatal accidents to
total number of employes has gradually
decreased. The record begins with 18SS
because It was then that the collection
of statistics was authorized by law and
put under the direction of the Inter
state commerce commission. Previous
ly no complete record of accidents in
connection with railroading was kept.
The exuet figures are thus given In tho

Although the law gives the railroad
companies until Jan. 1, 1898, to complete
the equipment of their cars with safety
appliances, many of the roads have
already done so. It will be noticed
that in 1894, there was a decrease over
the preceding year of 904 in the number
of killed and of 8,307 in the number of
injured. It is known that the death
rati) from accidents to rullroad men
has decreased 35 per cent, since the
safety coupler act was signed by Presi
dent Harrison March 2, 18H.1.
"There are now In use on freight cars
In this country not less than 400,000 air
brakes, of which 76,000 were furnished
the last fiscal year and more than 100,
000 this year. One hundred thousand
were placed in use the year following
the passage of the safety appliance
act, muklng a total of 275,000 which
hiay be directly ascribed to the enact
ment of this law. In rough numbers
thereiare 1,300,000 freight cars In the
United States. Not all of these,"
u:i the Times Herald points out, "are
used In Interstate commerce, but no
road cares to long maintain cars which
cannot be sent outside a certain state
when desired. In 1894 there had been
fitted with automatic couplers a total
of 357,621, and according to an estimate
made by John M. Cloud, secretary of
the Master Car Builders' association,
the total now . exceeds 000,000 freight
cars."
It will be remembered that the rail
road officials used to claim there were
no safe "safety couplers," but the law
culling them into use has displaced this
assertion. The same peculiarity is no
ticeable with reference to street car
fenders. A while ago there were no
safe fenders, but as soon as the law
said there must be such fenders; they
appeared. It Is well at times for the
lawmakers to prod tho corporations; It
generally promotes the public welfare.
. The Philadelphia Press has offered a
liberal prize to the boy who shall write
the best essay on the three, greatest
Americans. But who are they? Wash
ington and Lincoln, for two, but whom
for the third? That Is a good subject
for debate. Have our readers, any sug
gestions to offer? And,' while on this
subject, who are the three greatest liv
ing Americans?
Arthur McDonald, the government
criminologist, says: "I have seen
Holmes twice In his cell, and have
measured him with Instruments of pre
cision, sucb as the kyiiiogrlon, which
gives the effects of emotions and
thoughts on the breath. T measured
him also wi'-h( the aeMht-ylometer,
which gives his acuteneas or dulness
to sena'dlllty of locality; On the wrist;
also with the thermaestheslometcr,
which Rives the acuteneas Of his pos
sibility ,Ua heat.. I, also used an algo-
meter of my own construction on the
temporal muscle, giving his acuteaess
if sei sibility to pain " We wonder if
he measured Holmes' uerve.
The esteemed I-ancaster New Era Is
unkind to "Jack" Robinson, when It
K9.vs of lilm: "It Is either a ery warm
or a very cold day that Robinson Is not
heaid from In some wy. There does
not appear to be a public demand or a
public necessity for all this, but the
Delaware county consre-'jiism seems
to be ti'itt ihpt wjy. .i.id th?re in no
help for it Sucl l- e the wsc. the
only thing to do is to grin and bear his
vagaries. Just as we have to do with
many other disagreeable things In our
course through life." There are more
politicians on earth than John It Rob
inson. He may be boisterous and
"scrappy," but he has a geod heart. Is
a faithful friend and accepts the for
tunes of war like a man. He Is not a
clam.
In every state In the I'nlon, except
Malm, Rhode Island and Wisconsin,
the law directs that murderers In the
first degree snail be executed. Tet. ac
cording to mited State District Judge
Ira C. Parker, of Fort Smith, Ar
kansas, there were. In 1895, 10,503 homi
cides In the country, and In the past
live years the t- 'al has reached 43,982.
I' capital punishment Is a success, why
are murder Increasing; If a failure,
why 1 3 It not abolished?

The editor of the Cleveland Leader
has gone to the trouble to Inform the
public In a personal card that ex-Oov-ernor
McKlnley, Mark A. Hanna and
McKinlcy's private secretary are all
Protestants. It strikes us that his seal
is a trifle Impertinent.
Mr. Cleveland Intends, it Is said, to
remember congress with a special fin
ancial message. It will doubtless tf
ford another Illustration of what its au
thor does not know about finance.
0XE VIEW OF SLNATOK QIAl.
Says Dr. Edward lledloe, to the Chlca-
go Tiin-Hernld: "There is a dlspositlan
in the middle states to regard Henator
guay's candldncy for the nomination for
president as in Nome sense a jest. Mo not
think it. There are no elements of a Jolw
about it. Neither in any mark or point
does guuy answer the description of a
favorite son. He has been for years a
llgure In natlonul politics, and Is known
as broadly as the nation extends. There
is no Republican principle to which he
does not adhere, and let me say right here
that his views are not at all uncertain.
Ills position is known. (Juay never
dodged or ducked in his life; he has not
said one thing hero and another there; he
has not advanced a principle or a propo
sition in congress and disowned it on the
stump. It is not necessary to put him un
der oath and take his deposition to get
his convictions on currency or his tariff
Ideas. He Is hiding nothing. He wouli
muke a strong candidate, and of his suc
cess no man who understands him or the
situation would hazard a doubt.

"Quay's courage has always been a dis
tinguishing trait. He combines both the
moral and tho physical sort. He resigned
Ills command of a Pennsylvania regiment
on account of long continued weakness
which made it Impossible for him lo
survive three months more Held experi
ence. The acceptance of his resignation
came the day before Fredericksburg. He

not know fear, and his fellow-ofllcers en
deavored to keep him out of the tight
He would not listen to any arguments,
but Insisted he would not turn his buck on
his men when the lines were arranged for
trouble. He was conspicuous in the
bloody day of Dec. 13, 18'12, and rode in
the six times repeated charge of the ter
rible heights of St. Ma rye. Seven thou
sand federal soldiers lay dead on the
pathway to the confederate works. Weak
ami sick as he was, t'olouel Quay wus in
the thick of the smoke.

"Ald-de-Camp Pearson says thut where
ever the lire was hottest Colonel Quay
was riding, cheering his men on. When
nil attempt was madu by a part of the fed
erals to restrain the advance of Tyler's
brigade Colonel Quay brought order out of
what threatened to be disastrous confu
sion. " 'Ride over them,' he shouted, and the
determination which the men of the One
Hundred and Thirty-fourth showed to
obey his order stopped all further attempt
to hold them back.
"General Tyler give this euloglum of
Colnel Quay's gallantry, " continued Dr.
Heilloe. " 'Colonel Quay was upon my
stuff as a voluntary aid-de-camp, anil to
him I am greatly Indebted. Notwithstand
ing his enfeebled health, he was In the
saddle early and late, ever prompt and ef
ttcient, especially so during the engage
ment. In the charge on Marye's Heights
his coolness and gallantry were of a most
conspicuous character, such Indeed as few
men in sound health could have equaled,
and such as 1 never say excelled under any
circumstances. 1 but feebly express it
when I say his conduct commanded my
highest admiration. Not satlslied with his
labor of the afternoon, and, although so
weak from his sickness as to be scarce
ly able lo travel, he remained In the tlel I,
aiding In removing the wounded from un
der the enemy's guns until after mid
night.' 'Wintleld M. Clark was the captain of

wounded within the short space of twelve

" 'Colonel Quay,' he says, Mid not try
to protect himself, as some officers did,
bv dismounting, but rode his horse to
within a few yards of the wall.'
"The coolntBS of Colonel Quay Is well
shown In a remark which Captain Clark
atrrlbutes to him when an effort was be
ing made to re-form the line near the
enemy's works, hut under cover of a pro
tecting knoll. The confederate cannon
were roaring and the whistle of the mus
ket balls could be distinctly heard. As
was quite natural, a certain degree of ter
ror pervaded the troops, and seeing its
manifestation In the efforts of pome of the
men to more fully protect themselves,
Colonel Quay, who was astride his charger
and making energetic efforts to restore
order, exclaimed:
" 'Damn it, boys, what are you dodging
for; if I can sit on my horse and the bul

"The personality of such a man Is In
teresting. He Is not exactly the kind ono
might expect him to be, solely from ob-uor-vliiir
his nolltrnl career. He la retir
ing In manner, subdued and unsensatlonal
In address. He is uomesiic in nin lumen,
and when he Is not In the senate or en
gaged In political conferences he is usually
to be found in his own home. There in his
family and among his books he passes
much time. Ho loves to entertain his
friends, who ever find there a spirit of
wholesome hospitality. Those friends who
are admitted to the privacy or nis nome
circle are few in number, but he is at
tachad to them by an affection rnrely
round among men who are wrapped up In
public affairs. Quay Is a student and
finrnethlng of a hookworm. He has one
bf the largest and most carefully selected
private libraries In Washington. It con
uinn nhout lo.ooo volumes, and little ex
cept the highest glnd of literature. He
huys every nook insi nas 10 uo wun nv
history of polities of his own country as
It conies out, and there are probably not
hnlf a dozen men In public life who are
so thoroughly familiar as he with the po
litical annals of the United States."

WHAT HASTINGS SAID.
From tho Harrlsburg Patriot.
"The argument that Pennsylvania Is too
strongly Republican to come within the
presldiMlal range Is old but worthies.
It Is not necessary now to give the nomi
nation to a doubtful state to secure suc
cess at the polls. Besides, there la no
doubtful northern state. Maine, Ohio and
Iowa now are as surely Republican as
Pennsylvania, only thev don't equal us in
majorities. emphasise our loyalty to
Americttn protection and sound money by
a hundred thousand more majority thn
they .lo, but that fact should nut count
ax.iin.st a home candidate. It U pretty
nearly Pennsylvania's time for a presi
dential candidate if such things are to
be considered; und a united and enthusias
tic support would in my judgment bring
the Pennsylvania candidate far Inside of
the possibility circle.
"I admire the loyal support given to
Reed by the Republicans of Maine, and
to McKlnley by the 'Huckeyes anil to
Allison by the people of his state, and I
would like to see the party In Pennsyl
vania as heartily enthusiastic for her can
didate. Fersonul disagreements and lo -ul
jealousies should be lost sight of In the
great pride of the possible opportunity to
have a citizen of our own state till the
presidential chair.
"Whoever Is nominated." added the gov
ernor earnestly, "l'cnnsylvanla will give
the successful man the greatest majority
of any state. Our people, our Industries,
our wage earners, our hope for returning
prosperity stand for sound money and the
American idea. Senator Quay represents
these us distinctly as any other American
citizen. I believe the best Interests of the
I arty will be subserved by giving our can
didate the same generous and loyal sup
port which sister states are giving their
champions, and I expect td see practically
a united delegation at St. Louis making
a brave and determined effort to secure
the nomination of Senator Quay."

ADVICE TO I'OI.TS.
Retire Into your writing den.
Put beeswax on your easy chair,
Take reams of paper, nib your pen
And ruflle your poetic hair.
Don't write of love it's out of date
Kut put your hand to something new,
Work out a subject really great.
And make It brilliant, If not true.
And, If you're lacking for some rhymes,
I.ook up the poets they'll supply you;
'TIs one of those enormous crimes
For which the public won't decry you.
You puuse in doubt? A phrase of Greek
Will turn your lines In proper metre;
Or if in French a rhyme you seek,
Your verses will appear much sweeter.
And then, I think, If I were you,
I wouldn't send them to the papers,
But twist them up (I often do)
Into the sweetest smoking tapers.
