The Common Sense Cure.
A writer in the Jertnyn Press, In com
menting on Mr. SUitRes" retent letter
coneerniny; the untlmtrltc eoiil trade,
blames the operators themselves for the
recent troubles of the trade. He
charffe" them with responsibility for
the fact that "two breakers are stand
ing where one would be stifllt'lent."
This argument Is not without substan
tial Justice; yet It probably is not more
applicable to the trade In anthracite
coal than to the trade In hardware,
drugs and groceries. It could be ap
plied also to the professions, were It
not that the commodity In which they
deal namely, brains Is yet Insufticlent
for the demund.
In this very tendency to over-production
Is the public's safety. Those who
complain that the business of mining
and selling hard coal hus been syndi
cated may rest assured that whenever
"the trust," concerning which they
murmur profusely, attempts to extort
unfair prices from consumers, there will
be found producers willing to break
away from the agreement and thereby
keep the price within reason. In the
meantime, the present effort to restrict
production to market demands Is some
thing beneficial us well to the miner
as to the mine-owner, and as well to
the community as to either. It will
scarcely be argued by the Intelligent
miner that employment at satisfactory
wages could be expected for any con
siderable time upon a basis of over
production followed by loss on the part
of the mine-owner, Xor can it be re
garded us to the interest of any class
of citliifiis In Xortheastern Pennsylva
nia to have the limited supply of coal
which is the foundation of our pros
perity frittered away at less than cost
price.
If u mistake has been made in the
past by the building of two breakers
where one would have sulllccd, It Is not
to be corrected by a display of temper.
Nor under the law is it feasible for the
community to tuke forcible possession
of every other breaker and close Its
entrances. Those who have at heart
the betterment of the anthracite trade
and this number should include every
citizen of Lackawanna countymight
better endeavor to assist the present
movement to secure among operators a
voluntary concert of restrictive action
no that the error of tne past shall not
be likewise the error of the future.
Xo doubt Mr. Pattlson would like the
lightning to strike him during a more
favorable year; but men of destiny
cannot always be choosers.
No Marking for Slaughter.
Wo are glad to see that (.enernl Gros
venor, the Washington manager of the
McKlnley campaign, takes the sensible
view ot the attitude of those Itepubll-
cans who have preferred other candl
dudes to that which lie ably represents.
In reply' to a question whether he had
ever stated that If McKlnley were nom
inated, Senator Quay and his friends
would be marked for political isolation,
he said on Friday:
"1 never Bald such n thing or anything
of that nature. It is true that I believe
McKlnley will be nomlnnted. Ho hnn now
In the neighborhood of WW votes, anil I da
not think thnt any other name will be
presented to tne Bt. j.ouls convention. I
. look for his unanimous nomination. But
Tii for making any remarks hostile to Ben.
ator Quay, or to the effect that we could
get along without him, that I have, never
done. We need Senator Quay; in fact, we
need the assistance of every good Knpubll
can. After the convention there will lie no
factions, and the Itruuhllcan purty will
. stand as one man, lighting in a common
cause the election of the candidate. Wo
would be glad to have Senator yuay with
us now. The arms nf lov. arn nlwnvd
open to the erring. It Is equally untriio
that I ever said .that an arrangement hud
been made with Martin and Magee re
garding the Federal patronage In Penn
sylvania. I could not posslblv enter into
any such arrungement, for I have no au
thority to do so. I urn here simply to
work for Major McKlnley. He Is my
friend und I know tho man, I can snv
positively that Martin and Magee have
not been promised any oftlce or control of
one appointment In Pennsylvania in re
turn for their support not one. Neither
has any other man. There have been no
deals, so far as I know, and there will be
none."
These are the utterances of a good
politician and a philosopher. It the
people believed that Major McKlnley
. had secured his present lead In the
presidential race by secret deals, or If
they thought that he would, in the
event ot his nomination and election,
single out for punishment those Repub
licans who have exercised ther right
to prefer other candidacies, he could
not, with all tho momentum of his re-
' cent popularity, be nominated at .St.
Louis, One ot tho reasons why ht la
favored by a majority of Republicans
In the Republican states is because it
is believed, and because it has been
authoritatively asserted in his behalf,
that he would, if elected, remember
with substantial gratitude those party
leaders and party worker upon whom
Republicanism as an effective organ
ised force very largely depends.
Senator Quay Is one of the morit
prominent of those fen to whom Re
publicanism ower today Us tlattering
prospects of national success. He rep
resents a force In politics w-hich Is not
unlike, that represented in war by reg
ular soldiery. When the given volun
teers lose their enthusiasm and tnnke
for the rear, he stands by the party
standard, and fights until conquered.
Senator Quay hus faults and makes
mistukes. In the campaign for the
nomination he has opposed McKlnley
when he might perhupa have accom
plished more for himself and for his
friends by supporting him. Rut In this
attitude he hus done nothing more than
to exercise his rights; and if, after the
nomination, he gives to the? ticket his
loyal sunport, as he undoubtedly will,
that fact ought to end nil differences.
Senator Quay not only represents
Pennsylvania in the I'tilted States sen
ate but he is its representative on the
national battlelleld of politics, with
iTtdcntials from the banner Republican
majority in the ('iilon. It would be un
wise for a Republican president to try
to ignore such H representation, except
for good and milllclent cause.
It will sonn be In order for the gos
slpeis to revive that story ubout Sen
ator Quay wanting to become secretary
of 'the navy.
England's Predicament.
Four months ago President Krtiger
said that the Jameson Invasion of the
Transvaal was u plot of Ruud cupital
lts deliberately concocted for purposes
of gain, ills statement was at the time
discredited; t'ecll Rhodes was wel
comed to conferences by Secretary
Chamberlain; Jameson was lionized und
Kngland Hew into a passion because
Kmperor William of Germany had sent
to Kruger a message of cheer. Now,
Kruger has produced Ills evidence and
proved his whole point; Cecil Rhodes,
the one-time "king" of South Africa,
but now shown up as a designer o
revolution and treason, Is upon the
point of arrest or flight; Jameson is
enthusiastically despised and the wily
oltl president of the Iloer republic, by
commuting the death sentences .of
Rhodes' st If -confessed tools, has left
upon Knglund the responsibility of ad
judging the case of the eminent prin
cipal. Says I. X. Ford In his cable letter to
the New York Tribune;
Xo sharper transition of nubile opinion
whs ever witnessed in Kngluml than that
which hits taken place last week. At first
there was horror over the death sen
tences, und cynical contempt for the nnll-
tiuateil Inirbarltv or the IMitch law, widen
could not lie enforced, or, if It could, would
lend to wuf between Knglund und the
Trunsvaal. President Kruger, who had
spured Jameson and the raiders, again
intervened with mercy for the millionaires
of Johannesburg. Then enme the cipher
dispatches, the documentary proor to
which he referred four months ago, and
there was an Immedlnte revulsion of Tecl
Ing. Doubt us to the meaning of those
dispatches there could be none. The In
vasion of the Transvaal was a discredita
ble and sordid plot of Hand capitalists,
with the former premier of the Cape Colo
ny behind them, ami egging them on, with
the African directors of the Chartered
company conspiring with them, and with
Jameson, un Idealist and a unique figure,
because he was poor and not mercenary,
as their prlnclpul puppet. The insincerity
of the political reformers at Johannesburg
was at once unmasked; the specious plea
of knight-errantry in behalf of Imperilled
ami helpless women and children was ills
curded us un idle tale. It was simply a
tinanclers: raid, reckless In conception
und feeble in execution; dishonorable to
the Kngllsh reputation for morality and
fair play, and disastrous In consequemvs
to two jealous ruees, whose fortunes are
bound together in South Africa.
Readers who wish to gain a cleurer
Idea of this South African affair than
can be obtained from the newspupers
are recommended to read the series of
explanatory pupers whit h Professor
Jumes Rryce is contributing to tho Cen
tury maguzlne, the first of which ap
pears In the number for May. it muy
now, however, be explained that the
collapse of Cecil 'Rhodes, which, it
would seem, is utmost Inevitable, is
likely to curry with It consequences of
fur-reaching importance. That It will
check for years the development of
the Rand and cause muny enterprises
In South Africa to come to a standstill
appeurs to be certain. This will un
doubtedly huve Its effect upon the
Boers themselves, who, although a na
tion of farmers, huve yet an eye to
profitable near-by markets. That It
will likewise cripple the Outlanders (or
Kngllsh and American squatters on
Hoer territory who, In numbers, exceed
the Uoers themselves) Is evident. Thus
there may come from the Roers them
selves a request for leniency to Rhodes,
after, he shall have been sufficiently
discredited before the world to render
hint In the future harmless to the
Transvaal.
In the meantime, Kngland Is in the
position of the parent confronted with
proof positive that the offspring Is a
bully and a thief. She must either ply
the rod or spoil the child and get her
self discredited into the bargain.
The intimation of Senator Quay that
Inasmuch as three of the four dele-
gates-at-large In Illinois are personally
opposed to McKlnley they may refuse
to obey the convention's Instructions In
not plausible. It hints at a perfidy of
which not even Senator Quay's lieu
tenant, William H. Andrews, would bo
capable; as was shown at Harrlsburg
on April 23, when Andrews voted for the
Robinson resolution instructing for Mc
Klnley for second choice, "not," as he
explained, "because he personally fa
vored McKlnley but because his const!
tuents did." It Is unlikely, that any of
the four Illinois dclegates-at-large Is n
meaner politician than Is the senator
from Crawford county.
Two things have contributed to tho
McKlnley stampede, One was the Mc
Clure-Chandler "fat-frying" slander;
the other was the attack on McKinley's
honor as a private cltl.en. One would
Imagine the lesson would some day be
learned by political soldiers of fortune
that personal abuBe always reacts.
We can Indorse every word which the
Philadelphia Press says concerning the
futility of trying to change the result
at fit. Louis by trumped-up contests,
The men who are going; to elect the next
president are going to nominate him,
.fairly and above board. You can re
gard this assertion true beyond the
possibility of a doubt. But we don't,
for our part, believe taut any candidate
wishes to pad the convention roll. That '
might go in a Democratic ljv wow; ,
but it wouldn't go among Republicans.'!

It is only a question of time until
the time limit in Methodism will be
abolished entirely. That limit did good
work In its day and under the condi
tions which called it Into use. Nowa
days It Is becoming obsolete. Method
1st churches are gaining in wealth.
The congregational spirit Is growing.
Iaymen are taking the reins Into their
own hands; and the lines of real differ
ence between Methodism and the other
Protestant Isms are gradually being
effaced. Evolution is doing its work.
This is a world of change.
The McKlnley tldnl wave has had an
other unexpected effect, it has swept
Kditor Lemuel Ell Qulgg, of the New '
York Press, out of office. Qulgg want- !
ed to light the McKlnley sentiment; j
Mr. Kinsteln, the owner of the Press,
did not. Consequently Quigg resigned. !
Taken in connection with the case of !
the Pittsburg man who was so loyal to ;
Quay thnt the news from Illinois last :
week caused him to commit suicide, this :
incident would seem to Indicate that ,
the McKlnley gun is loaded.

"Penn." in Philadelphia bulletin.
Nine years ago this summer at Allen-
town Samuel J. Randall scored the most
notable and the lust victory of his political
life. The Democratic convention which
met there on that occasion had been pro
ceded by a deep-laid plan to wrest from
him the control or the party organization.
With the advent of Cleveland all the Fed
eral movables In Pennsylvania had bean
iaimed by Handull and had been allowed
o him with the execution of a small al
lotment for Scott and a few bones for Wal
lace. Tho Federal omcv-holders hud been
drilled Into a Kandall brigade pretty
much nil over the state, Mr. Hurrlty, as his
tlrst lieutenant in Philadelphia, having
been foremost In performing the function
of disciplinarian. The year before Kan
dall hud enjoyed the supreme satisfaction
of defeating Wallace as a candidate for
governor a defeat which virtually dated
the ending of Wallace's career as a Demo
cratic leader, although the veteran made
one more desperate effort four years later
to retrieve Ills fallen rortunes, only to
meet with the Dual disaster at Scranton
that overthrew him for good. Hut in the
spring and summer of 1KX7 there began to
be ominous whispers that Randall was not
faithful In bis allegiance to the white
house, and that Mr. Cleveland would no
longer permit him to busk In the sunshine
of favor.
It was at this time' that the late Will
iam L. Scott and William M. Sltmerlv gut
close to the ear of Cleveland. They Insist
ed that Randall was having too much his
own way on the tariff question. Cleveland
had not then announced himself openly as
a free trader. In the presidential cam
paign or !)s(i4 he had evaded the Issue, and
there was no doubt that he had owed thou
sands of votes In states like New Jersey,
Connecticut and New York to Randall's
assurances on the stump that Democratic
success "Mould not mean a disturbance of
the tariff. W hlle he was working around
to the conclusion, however, that he would
open war on Ihe tariff, he threw out hints
to the I'ennsylvanian that It was time for
all Democrats to take u new departure.
natulan turned a deal ear to them, warned
the president that he was making a mis
take in taking counsel with the free trad
ers, und frankly informed him that l.e
would consent to no tariff revision which
abandoned the protective system. Find
ing that he hud us stubborn a man as him
self to contend with, Cleveland proceeded
to give special attention to Scott and Hln
gerly us Peniisylvaiilans after his own
heurt.
This was the condition of affairs when
ihe Allentown convention met; but it was
then only Imperfectly understood and. In
find, hardly more than susoueted he not.
side observers. Hurrlty. the postmaster,
was me earnest man on the Kandall side
to see the drift of thlmrs and what was
coming. Hut most of the oltlce-holders
were ill tne dark. There was no evidence
that Clevlund was anxious thul Kandall
should be shorn of his power, und. al
though Scott hud placed himself In corre
spondence with them ami hud Informed
them that the president wanted a new or
der of things In the state, they would not
believe him,
-:!!:-
Scott determined with his new prestige
as one of Cleveland's favorites to go to
Allentown and make open war an Kandall.
Wallace was solicited to go Into the move
ment, but he was not any more friendly to
the F.rie millionaire than he was to his
ancient rival in Philadelphia, nnd declined
to give active co-operation. Hut Slngerlv
took part in it with great ardor. He went
up to Allentown with Caasidv, Vmix an I
all the unti-Kamlall men that could be
gathered In from the hlghwuys und by
ways und Joined forces with Scott. It was
the first time since the ante-bellum days
when u Pennsylvania convention of uiiy
party hud witnessed a deliberate and for
midable attempt to organize a campaign
against protection, it required daring to
muke the effort, but It was strong enough
to alarm Kandall, who probably under
stood better than anyoodv else the dan
ger he was In at the while house. I 1iad
frequently seen him in conventions, hut 1
r'oubt whether, ut least In his Inter years,
lie ever labored so hard as he did dining
the twenty-four hours of the hot August
day und night that preceded the conven
tion. He hud an easy, familiar and. when
he was in the right temper, an agreea'lv
impressive way of dealing with delegates,
and he was never so gracious and concil
iatory as he was on this occuslon. Scott,
on the other hand, was cold and brusque
inclined to be harsh and testv In conver
sation and without a particle of mag
netic quality. Slngeiiy, in 18.S7, hud a lim
ited following outside of the city, ami a
good many of the countrymen had the
idea that he was a frisky crank on free
trade und a dangerous man for the party
to encourage. Late in the night before the
convention It was clear that Randall had
captured a majority of the delegates, and
the next morning Scott entered the Open
House with a confession of defeat which
he felt deeply, hut which he managed to
make with a clumsy Bort of grace. Kin
dull, .sitting across the aisle from him, his
line dark eyes Hashing through his specta
cles, looked on with folded arms and hnrd
ly able to conceal his elation. Hut it was
the lust time he was to feel the delights of
victory.
As soon as the convention was over,
Scott exclaimed, with one or two of his
vigorous epithets, as he prepared to leave
town, "I'll show' these fellows that they
can't do this a second time." Randall had
Caused the tariff to be straddled In the
platform, nnd the performance was quot
ed to Cleveland as proof positive that he
could not expect Kandall to obey his wish
es, and that there was nothing to da but
to apply the screws to him. Less than
three months afterward Cleveland came
out in his famous message. It was said
that the convention at Allentown hud
more effect . than any other one cause In
Inducing him to muke up his mind finally
to write that document which marks a
turning point in Democratic history. Ran
dull still stubbornly refused to admit that
Cleveland could be right or to make any
concession to him, and It wasn't long
afterward when Scott was virtually placed
