An Archbishop on Arbitration.
The contention of Archbishop Ireland
that war la an Indispensable snfepuard
cf patriotism has reference, we take It,
to wars which determine moral Issues,
nnd not to those which are essentially
Immoral In thelrorlgln. In this sense the-
archbishop is unquestionably right ; .for,
as he says, it Is Inconceivable that an
issue like that which underlay the civil
war, namely, the question of human
slavery, could be iermanently settled
by arbitration. In morals, warfare Is
perpetual; the Bible and human nature
fioth teach that Satan is ever at war
with righteousness, and there can be
no safe reliance upon a system which
undertakes to effect pacific compro
mises between fundamentally irrecon
cilable Influences and tendencies.
ltut If we correctly gauge the pres
ent movement for international arbitra
tion, It does not advocate the attempt
t compromise between right and
wrong; it simply endeavors to arouse
among the civilized nations such a
standard of public Intelligence and mor
ality as will put a check upon the bar
bnrle disposition, yet strongly surviving
In most men, to refer evtry petty clash
of Interest or minor difference of opln-
ion to the arbitrament of physical force.
If the wars of the present century be
called in review, what percentage of
them will be found to rest upon some
Rreat and irreconcilable Issue of right
against wrong; and what upon sheer
ambition, territorial gTeed or cold
blooded political artifice? Surely, not
one war In ten Is justifiable from the
standpoint that war Is a necessity. The
tlm of arbltrationlsts is to eliminate
the nine superfluous wars. That done.
If the tenth breach has to be fought
out, they stand ready, we take it, to
Shoulder the musket as well as to sub
scribe to the campaign fund.
It Is possible that war-storms are
sometimes needed to cleanse the civic
atmosphere. Yet there is a kind of war
fare neither brutalizing nor bloody
which can effectually perform this san
itary function: and we submit that It
were better to refer the task to that
agency of purification than to aband
on it to the coarse solvent of carnage
we refer to the warfare of the church
and of the schools against those inllu
enoes which corrupt. Let it not be held
that war In the old-fashioned sense is
indispensable until these less ferocious
agencies have unmistakably failed.
Mr. Piatt will find that the American
people do not get all their instruction
from Wall street.
Broadening Out
An Interesting convention has been
called to meet in Toledo, ()., June 23, ?4
and 25. Its general purpose is to fa
cilitate and safeguard the use of credit
In business; the particular topics pro
posed for discussion are Indicated in
the call as follows: (1) To better pro
tect credits; (2) to reduce losses from
bad debtB; (3) to prevent fraud and in
justice to creditors; (4) to make prose
cution and punishment of fraud mo'e
certain; (5) to reform and Improve cal
lection laws; (6) to bring about Im
provement in commercial reporting
systems; (7) to bring about improve
ment In collection methods; and (8) t-
improve present methods of handling
bankrupt estates.
Each of these subjects offers ample
cope for research and experiment. It
Is a Rood sign to see the business men
of the country Inclining more and more
to co-operation and to see them dis
posed to give to their various interests
systematic and intelligent study. The
sense of interdependence and commer
cial fellowship thus fostered cannot
fall to be mutually beneficial. The time
has passed In this country when as a
general proposition the mercantile ca
reer could with safety be based upoh
the principle of every malt for himself.
Developed, resources and stimulated
competition have knit all departments
of commerce together Into a single fab
ric governed by trade laws that re
quire to be discovered and obeyed, and
subject to general conditions Imposing
upon each' business man a certain mea
sure of responsibility which he may not
escape without loss both to himself
and to the community.
urt.il.. i i . . .
wiiiie ji uieBBiunm interests nave Jong
been fostered and safeguarded by co
operative Influences, the application of
similar methods to the mercantile vo
cation Is of comparatively recent origin.
It dwarves to be encouraged, it a
benefits which will surely result from It
are neither few nor trivial. : Wo repeat
it is a Rood sign to see our great mrr
cantile Interests brought, together in
boards of trade and In conventions for
the purpose of looking at the Issues an !
problems of their special field of activ
ity broadly and In the developing spirit
of philosophy. It will enlarge their
mental horizon and it will also exhibit a
good Influence upon their profit and
loss account
Ail but four of the Pennsylvania dele
gation at St. Louis have indicated to
Senator Quay their willingness to vote
for him If bis name goes before the
national convention as a candidate for
president. The exceptions are Dele
gates Martin and Hackett, of Plilludcl
pliia, and Magee and Flinn, of ruts
burg. Such an evidence of appreciation
from one's constituency Is a compli
ment by no means to be despised.
Buy the Woman's Paper.
Inasmuch as this will be the last Is
sue of The Tribune prior to the appear
ance, tomorrow morning, of "Our Wo
man's Paper." it is proper to take this
occasion of recommending to our read
ers that each be prepared to purchase
a copy of the splendid edition which the
women of Scranton have so energetic
ally prepared. The fruits of their toll
for more than a month Will be submit
ted to public Inspection curly tomorrow
morning, in an Issue of 40,0'X) copies.
each copy comprising thirty handsome
pages. The price per copy of this In
teresting compendium of the literary
and business activities of the blight
women of our city will be only five
cents, and at this modest price it will,
indeed, be a rich bargain.
As most of our readers know, tho
proceeds of this enterprise will go into
u new building fund for the benefit of
the Scranton Young Women's Christian
association. Concerning the worth of
that Institution It Is scarcely necessary
to speak. There is probably no reader
of these lines who does not readily ret
ogulze und appreciate the fact that a
new home for this association is urgent
ly needed; and we are proud to believe
that no regular reader of The Tribune
will begrudge live cents In aid of that
project. Everything; is now ready for
the appearance of the "Woman's
Paper," nnd in both quality and quan
tity it will be a monument to the brains,
perseverance and enterprise of its or
iginators; but it rests, ufter all, with
the reading public to make the venture
a financial success. The women have
done their part; let tho public for
whose benefit they have so unselfishly
labored do thelr's with corresponding
generosity and enthusiasm.
William McKinley may not be renVy
to see silver stricken from the list of
money metals, but when he Is elected
president we may be sure that no la.v
partner of his will get up a bond deal
with a New York syndicate whereby
the government will be skinned out of
$10,000,000 in a lump sum.
Ideal but Hardly Practicable.
An Interesting If not a very convinc
ing nrgument Is made by Louis P.
Shoemaker in the Washington Post In
favor of the creation of a permanent,
non-partisan and non-sectional com
mission of able and expert men to make
a systematic and continuous study of
the tariff and financial problems, with
the purpose of recommending to con
gress, from time to, time, such modifi
cations of the laws governing these two
subjects as it shall deem for the best
Interests of the country. Among the
many reasons which he advances for
such a step, the chief one Is that con
gress itself with its complex and jum
bled membership made up mostly of
green politicians and demagogues, is
unfit, alone and without aid, to deal
intelligently with these delicate, far-
reaching and vital subjects.
Mr. Shoemaker quotes Professor
Hryce's remark In the "American Com
monwealth" that "so long as the debit
Bide of the National account is man
aged by one set of men and the credit
side by another Bet, both sets working
separately and In secret, without public
responsibility, and without Interven
tion on the part of the executive official.
wbo Is nominally responsible; so long
as these sets being composed largely
of new men every two years, who give
no attention to business except when
congress is In session, nnd thus spend
In preparing plans the whole time
which ought to be spent In public dis
cussion of planB already matured, so
that an Immense budget is rushed
through without discussion in a week
or ten days just so long the finances
will go from bad to worse, no matter
by what name you call the party in
power. No other nation on earth at
tempts such a thing or could attempt
It without coming to grief, America's
salvation thus far consisting In tho
enormous Income, with practically no
druin of military expenditure." To this
passage Mr. Shoemaker adds the fol
lowing comment of his own:
While Mr. Bryee could write this In ISM
when the treasury was full of our mil
lions of nationnl pecuniary Wealth, and
tho question was ngltntlng the country as
to how we should judiciously expend It,
whnt could he snv today when we not
only spent the millions we then had, but
we nave neen torceii by inn neglect ana
refusal of our legislators to legislate to
borrow millions on several different occa
sions In time of peace to ennble lis to meet
our Just and necessary obligations of a
national chnraeterf Are we now an ex
ception to the other nations of the world
whom Mr. Ilryce says could not do, or at
tempt to do, as we have done? Have we
not already come to grief? Is It not evi
dent that we cannot now nor In the future
float as we have In the past upon our na
tional, Individual, and corporate prosperi
ty? Is It not necessary now thst our na
tional affairs nnd particularly those -of
linnnee ami tarllT. should he In the hnnds
of the best and most patriotic men of the
country, statesmen, not politicians?
To these questions, the affirmative Is
the only possible answer; nnd It is, we
believe, the purpose of the voters of tho
United States, so far us lies wlthlil
their, power under the party system
of government, to take the control of
our national affairs, just as soon as
they -can, from the hands of a collec
tion of poor politicians who have pro
duced only havoc, and to commit them
to tho hands of experienced Republi
can statesmen. - Whether it will be pos
sible to go further than this; to go to
the extent of experimenting with a
board of congressional advisers, paid
to do congress' thinking for It, Is a
question not so readily answered. What
guaranty la there that congress would
adopt the suggestions of the proposed
commission? How do we know that Its
creation would not be energy wasted?
The proposition, from a theoretical
view, certainly looks attractive; but
would It work? We -fear not.
Representative Charles W. Stone of
Pennsylvania wants our diplomatic
force to ascertain If other governments
would be willing to Join the United
States In the establishment of an Inter
national coin, of gold or silver or both,
to be specially adnptcd to Invoice pur
poses. The chances are- that the mak
ing of such a ranvusti would be labor
wasted.
Hi prest ntallve Corliss of .Michigan la
waiting his breath trying to net Presi
dent Cleveland to take the initial fctcp"
toward another International tmtif tary
conference. An agreement among the
nations rentonetixlng silver bi the last
thing that tho Cleveland following in
American polities would welcome.
The attempt to Impugn Major Mc
Klnley's honesty has fallen as flat as
dlil the earlier attempt to challenge hH
patriotism. Nixt thins we know, Mc
Kinley will become popular on account
of the asliilulty of tho men who light
him.
We gut her from Druther Kohlsuat's
paper that the only Republican against
wht.m McKinley lin? stecb-d lil-i forgiv
ing heart is Thomas I'lntt. Well, the
harmony procession need not be de
layed by one man's absence.
It seems that Hon. John Wannmaker
has opeiud a senatorial bargain coun
ter with Frank Willing Leach us the
salesman in charge. Nevertheless, we
suspect that the successor to Cameion
lives, when at home, in Heilefonte.
The Altoona Tribune wants white
law Held to have another chance nt the
vice-presidency. Some other year, es
teemed enn temporary, some distant
other year!
Secretary Frank Herder's admlrat'on
for Frank Willing Leach seems to bo
In the past tense. There are others of
whom the same Is suspected.
Holmes' body Is burled and his papers
have been duly searched and stowed
uway. Now let this monstrous recol
lection fade.
Montana Republicans are for sliver;
but they the also for protection. Among

THE HYPNOTIZED CEPOKTEB.
Scarcely a day pnsaes that readers of
Till; Tribune uie not horrified by reports
of fatalities resulting from the collapse of
builmim in case ot the or otherwise, ill
manv instances the lives of unfortunate
persons who are obliged to labor In ouie
gcrous structures asainst their v.' III. per
haps, huve been crushed out without a mo
ment's warning, in some cases the cause
of the catastrophe lias been unexplaiiuiblo
while In others a slight lire has cau.-ed tliq
duiiuerous structure lo fall. I have often
wondered when reading these uccouitts
whether Serunton is not threatened by
dangers of this class. Take, for example,
some portions of lower Lackawanna ave
nue. When climbing tho rickety stairs In
some of these Structures where thousands
of dollars' worth of business Is transacted
yearly, old you ever sto to imagine wn.it
the effect of u sliKiit lar would be upon
the edifice? Of late Scranton has been
beautified by the erection of some very
handsome modern buildings. A l'.ttl.- hluh,
perhaps, but structures that would bo r.n
ornament to any city. Hut I believe there
are many buildings in the city that should
be condemned Iry Uie tiuinung inspector cs
unsafe. This in true of new buildings as
well as of oi l. In order to evade lite

Panyrrs of tl.e public kissing mania
wre Illustrated In a startling mnnnci"nl
8'.. Louis the otl.ir ib.y when n man. in
giving bis wife a nocd-bye kiss, pulled her
off a street car put form and brjko her
leg. Kis.'lng In public is not always so
ilangeioiis, but I; is nl'Un very trying to
the nervis of spectators. The policemen
nt one ndlroad station In this city have
become melancholy, it is said, by being
obliged to witness dally an amount of os
culation that is Unix arable. 1 had occa
sion to witness an eticour.t'T of thin kind
a few days ago in onp of th railroad sta
tions nnd ran sympathise with the discon
solate trainmen. A rather Inferior lock
ing man of uncertain uge wearing n fierce
yellow mustache, walked out on the sta
tion pint form accompanied by an unusual
ly pretty wor:n. The man might have
walked about the place all day without
attracting the notice that would nave been
aeecrded a yellow dog. Hut the young wo
man gained the admiration ot all In slgtit
without nn effort. She was pretty, styl
ish, nnd wore a smile of radiance that baf
fled description. A3, for tha want of bet
ter ochtipntlon, I looked nt the pair and
trlsd lo decide In my own mind whether
the man was husband, father or uncle rt
the fulr young creature, the train sud
denly started. The effect on the couple
wns startling. They falrlv leaped Into the
air nnd fell In each. other's arms and for
a second or two It was tmnosslble to toil
to whom the yellow mustache belonged.
The glti's hut wns knocked over to one.
side and the man's necktie wag hnilly dls.
nnentrcd. Hill tltey did not mind. Tho
mnn looked serene as he stepped nn the
train nnd the young lady Joined In the
laughter of the spectators who hail wit
nessed the nffair; nnd ns the train mov d
out, she trlnppil gully up the street, ap
parently happier for hnvlna given tl!3
people on the train an exhibition of kiss
ing up-to-date.
I nm tileased to note that an effort 'ins
been mntle on pert of tha management of
tho Serunton base bull enterprise to ole
vate, the game to a certain extent nnd
make provisions for the comfort of pat
rons to the park thnt Inaurn a pleasant
rfierroon for oil Visitor. ,'.t Is not llk!y
that the base ball rumen this season can
be consldersd In the light of society events,
but there-Is no reason why they -should
not be patronised by respectable people
who admire the sport. Base ball is cn
American Kama. Properly conducted it ia
probably among the most amusing. It
should never be given over to the tooth
element. The Scranton managers took the
Brat step in favor of base ball this acaiwit
in refusing to allow the club to ;i!ay ball
on Sunday, and they seem disposed to
follow thin course throughout the season
in providing the patrona of the game with
lively amusement that Is free from the
features of rowdyimi which bave in the
past dune so much to brim; base ball into
disrepute. It is probable that this reform
effort will Im recounticd by increased pat
ronage as the season advances.

.V.'hrn the promises of June-tlnio come to
thrill the lassy ulr,
And the aim beats hot upon tho dusty
road;
When the lavish lorust-blosaoms spill
their pei-funic everywhere
And parched rocks rise where once tho
river (lowed.
The bird-songs lose the charm which has
ilellshtej so the ear;
In vain the cephyrs chant their tree-top

There lingers no attraction in the har
monies once dear
You want to hear the scam-piuno play.
Oh, the hurry and the scramble where the
pclishid tiKtire arch
Reflects on us the sun's o'er-genlal glow!
And the eager, happy fucen, ull along the
line of march,
Where the band keeps crowds In rhythm
as they eo.
Your wlldwcod lodge, nhllosopher; your
contemplative mood,
All lose their charm beneath the mystic
sway
Of the billowy stretch of canvas and the
fields with sawdust strewed.
You would rather hear the steam-piano
