A rAimlur of late but excellent con
trlbullons fur wlilrh could not
be fiunl In tin? Woman's 1'uyer will
appear lu tomorrow's Tribune.
.
The Woman's Paper.
It will, we think, lie generally admit
ted by ull who bave read "our Woman's
I'mier" that, In both quality and ar
rangement, It fur eNeeeds expectations.
There iloeH not seem to have been a
BliiKle serious omission from tho list of
articles that aim to chronicle the ad
vantages which n resldi'iice In Set anion
offers from an Intellectual, an artistic,
a social, u religious and a philanthropic
standpoint. The only regret which
arises In connection with the enter
prise Is that Its interesting contents
should. In the natural order of news
paper longevity, so soon be doomed to
destruction. They would be well wor
thy of permanent preservation In book
fuifn.
Apart from thr? financial success of
the undertaking not yet fully deter
mined but at all events enough to form
a tidy nucleus for the Scran ton Young
Women's Christian association's new
building fund the Woman's Paper re
veals on intellectual standard among
the women of Scranton which cannot
fall to inspire among their brothers and
husbands and men friends renewed and
augmented admiration. It may be that
we ought not to confess to a feeling of
ngreeable surprise over such an admir
able vindication of our community's
mental possibilities; It may be that the
politic course would be to take all this
complacently for granted but frank
ness compels the confession that our
perusal of the Woman's Paper was at
tended ot every point with n sense of
the unexpected, with a kind of shame
faced consciousness that heretofore we
had rated too modestly the capabilities
of the paper's originators; and we sus
pect that our experience In this direc
tion had plenty of parallels.
But be that as it may, it Is only fair
to take this opportunity of voicing the
general commendation which the novel
venture has elicited; and of adding, on
The Tribune's behalf, a hope that the
completion of yesterday's special edi
tlon will not mark the end of the pleas
ant Interest which the women of Scran
ton have lately taken In local Journal
ism.
The Philadelphia Record talks glibly
about the goodness of our present cur
rency based on gold redemption am
about the superiority of the wages paid
under It; but It somehow neglects to
state that during the last three years of
Democratic "free trade" the wage loss
of American artisans aggregated more
than 2,000,000,000.
The Rewards of Public Life.
It Is one of the unpleasant anomalies
of Republican Institutions that as a
rule to which of course there are con
splcuous exceptions men worthy of
continuance In public life are too poor
to afford political honors, while men
wealthy enough to afford them seldom
possess the requisite qualifications for
them. That men who serve the public
honestly and with singleness of pur
pose In uosts of prominence In the na
tlonal government often find dllllculty
In living within their none too ample
Incomes, and that the talent and In
dustry which they exhibit In this large
ly thankless service of the public of
ten would, If utilized In, the private nnd
more selfish battle for business or pro
fessional advancement, bring to thein
and to their families comforts and even
wealth far In excess of the honest pos
slbllltles of public endeavor have been
proved over and over again,
This line of thought Is suggested at
this time by a renewal of the gossip,
now somewhat more plausible than
heretofore, which credits Speaker Reed
with the desire to retire from public
life next March If not permanently at
least for an interval of private money
making under circumstances which
can excite no question as to his probity
and freedom from corruption. Says the
Washington correspondent of the Chi
cago Times-Herald, to whose usually
accurate pen we are Indebted for the
lateBt presentation of this interesting
rumor;
It Is well known to tho ltlmato friends
of Mr. Reed that after the Flfty-hrm con
gress when he retired from the speuker'B
chair, he seriously con(eiiiiluted the lda
of resigning from congrexB and resumlm?
the active work of his profession. It 1m
also known that Mrs. lteml woiiid.be gl.ut
to see him leave public life. Mr. Reed Ih
a poor man. He has one (laughter, a very
charming and talented girl of nbcu K
nnd he Is naturally unxlous to provide for
her, The speaker will' hn over 07 years
old wliun tills coneross expires, although
his wonderful physique and imiKiilllcent
vitality convey the impression that he Is
considerably younger. Ha Is aware that if
ho Is to make money he has not much
more time to lose. Illi friends feel sure
that In fow years ha will bo one of tho
treat leaders of the New York bar an!
that his annual liu-omr will be as great
us the f alary he has received for the two l
ty years he h;i been In eoiipT.-ss. Fnira a
..ib;kal standpoint they tl.-j think it
niisht be to hla advantage lu transfer ins
reslili nee from .Maine lo New York. Sir.
lieeJ hu listened to the arguments of hi
lii. ii. In. but has suM n.uiiinvr. Tne time
lias nut yet come for him lo speak, but if
hu should resign his seat tills winter it
would not surprise his Intimates.
We do not anticipate that Mr. Reed
will retire. The probability seems much
stronger that he will be called by the
public he has so well served, to a yet
higher position of trupt and honor, a
position which his robust personality
tind marked gifts of Intellect will re
store to Its old-time but lately lost
dignity as the second highest position.
In tho republic. At the same time, the
foregoing citation presents a tempta
tion often present to public men who
would scorn to stoop to questionable
tin thuds of increasing their worldly
possessions, and reveals a condition of
affairs difficult to remedy. Talk as we
may and do, these days about the
ifeness of jobbery and corruption at
the national capital, there yet are many
liuvre and devoted men in public life-
who do not permit themselves, direc tly
or Indirectly, to be bought or bridled;
who give the time for which the people
nil too stingily pay them wholly ond
willingly to the people; nnd who, in
consequence, after years of faithful and
honest service, are liable to be beached
by a turn In the xlitlcal tld.- with
scarcely a dollar saved against that
contingency.
For men like these public life holds
out, at best, only n pour prospect of re
ward. The only consolation In view for
them Is that they as a rule are nu n so
great as to be nenrly as nu n In this
practical nge can be, above the need of
money. .

We trust we nmy be permitted to re
mark that it Is not every newspaper es
tablishment from which two morning
editions, a regular eight-page and the
other ii special thirty-page newspaper,
can bo Issued .simultaneously without
friction, accident or delay, as wus done
yesterday by The Tribune.
A Spurious Howl.
The Philadelphia Press Is convinced
that no human power can prevent the
nomination of William McKinley for
president at St. Louis. "He already,"
It says, "has a clear majority of the
whole convention. Not nil the frantic
squirming of the combine, not all the
liyK)crltlcal pretences of the mugwump
allies of the bosses, not ull the hollow
fiction of Imaginary concern about fan
ciful spooks can defeat him." Further
more, "the platform of the St. Louis
convention will be a dour, ringing, em
phatic, unmistakable honest money
platform. It will declare unequlvocully
against free, unlimited und independent
silver coinage, and will unqualilicdly
sustain nnd demand the maintenance of
the present gold standard so long as
the great commercial nations of the
world stand on that basis." And Dual
ly, "Major McKlnley's letter of nccept
tance will adant the candidate square
ly and unreservedly on the platform.
That will be the appropriate time for
him to speak, and he will speak in no
uncertain tones. He will speak so
dearly, so strongly and so understand
ing for honest money. In the Interest
of the laboring man as w ell as the bank
er, that the' few sincere men who now
claim to have doubts will be ashamed
of themselves, nnd the many Insincere
men who falsely pretend to be skeptical
as a mere piece of political trickery
will be confounded, abashed and over
whelmed." This deliverance may be regarded as
an authoritative presentation of the
McKinley case, since it appeared direct
ly following the visit of the editor of
the Press to a grand conference of the
McKinley managers held on Tuesday
In New York, It means, among other
things, that the Ohio candidate will not
in his individual capacity, deign to no
lice the present spurious and artificial
clamor of his opponents for a cross
examination of himself upon the money
question. In this determination both
he and his friends nre undoubtedly
wise. The contemporary spasm of pop
ular reaction from the time-honored
nttitude of the Republican party In fav
or of bimetallism threatens to be as
short-lived and as soon repented as was
the similar reaction, four years ago,
toward the free trade craze which was
then being fostered by the same In
fluences that now fill the atmosphere
with a vociferous howl for gold mono
metallism. . Major McKinley weathered
the gale then, and he need not fear to
stand out against the companion gale
of today. He Is for sound money, of
course. But he Is not likely to be en
trapped Into a needless and, so far as
the future Is concerned, perhaps a dan
gerous declaration of war against the
double standard, simply to gratify a
cluss of men, who would be Just as
much dissatisfied and Irreconcilable
after he should have spoken as they
pretend to be now.
We trust that Major McKinley pos
sesses the foresight to perceive thnt If
the Republican party wishes to remain
a national party and not warp up Into
the party of one class and one section.
Its membership must soon call a halt
to the rampant dogmatism of the hour
which would crack every head that does
not swallow ready-made financial
opinions In direct conflict with the
party's past record nnd traditions; and
must substitute In place thereof a spir
it of willingness to make reasonable
concessions. The position of tho Re
publican party since Its organization
has been one of declared friendliness
to silver; one of belief In the pnsslbll
lty and the practlenblllty of the double
standard; one of willingness to make
serious effort to bring about the iv.inon
otlzution of the white metal throughout
the world. To Insist that in one in
stant all this must be kicked over and
silver Inconsistently banned and damn
ed Is to tuke risks which few men who
look ahead will estimate as either wise
or safe. Therefore, while the next plat
form nmy In a spirit of caution recom
mend that no change In the present
standard be made until it can be at
tempted under the guuranty, of Inter
national co-operation, It is sheer lunacy
to expect or to ask a radical and dog
matic declaration of war on silver. We
suspect that McKinley sees this, If some
of his critics do not.
While It probably Is true thnt Edward
J. Addicks does not represent the high
est type of Delaware Republicanism, It
Is equally true that Tuesday's bolt of
the untl-Addlcks men from the Dover
convention because they had been out
voted In an efi'ort to pass McKinley
instructions was unwarranted and rev
olutionary. It was a challenge of the
principle of majority rula, upon which
Republicanism rects. and a direct in
dorsement of party disorganisation. If
the St. Louis convention seats the bolt
tag delegation it will do an Inexcusable
wrong.

WANTS TO SCRAP.
From the Chicago Record.
Fighting Bob Evans, of the t'nlted
States navy, does not approve of the Cu
ban policy of the administration, and
when he was In Washington a few days
ago he frankly told the president so. .lie
thinks this government ought to show its
sympathy with the Insurgents und take a
huiiil In the shindy. If he hud his way ho
would drive the Spaniards out of Cuba
entirely und annex the Island to tho
I'nltcil States. He guve the president
some powerful arguments to sustain that
view of the case. Uut thu president
begged off and referred Fighting Bob to
Secretary Olney, who, he said, was look
ing after the Cuban business. So the last
time that Captain Evans was In Wash
ington he called upon the secretary ot
state nnd was introduced by Assistant
Secretary SlcAdoo, of the navy depart
ment, who is also 1 Cuban sympathizer
In secret.
Cuptnln Evans expressed his views with
great freedom to the secretary of stuie
as he did to his friend and crony, the
president, and among other things he said:
".Mr. Secretary, the battleship Indiana,
which 1 have the honor to command, 1b
the finest lighting machine afloat, and
If you will glvehe word 1 will go down to
Cuba and with her alone will undertuke
to eleun out the entire SpanBh fleet."
The secretary of state smiled, but re
mained silent.
"See here. Sir. Secretary," continued
the captain, earnestly, 'wouldn't you like
to have me cruise down around Cuba anil
bring you home a box of line Havana ci
gars?'' "I don't smoke," was the secretary's
quiet reply.
Captain Evans bowed obediently to the
decision and said good-bye. Hut he could
not conceul his disappointment, nnd when
he left the secretary's ottice he remarked
in an undertone to Mr. SlcAdoo that if
they would only give him a chance In Cuba
with his battleship "no language but
Spanish would be spoken In hades for tho
next five years."
