Election I'QV, Nov. 3.
Now that It Is all over, we discover
that we were really for McKinley all
klong. There's no mugnet like success.
Peace with Honor.
Putting two and two together, It Is
eny to see that Senator Quay haB de
cided upon a graceful acceptance of the
Inevitable and will, with characteristic
shrewdness, withdraw from further re
sistance upon terms honorable alike to
him and to the genuine friends and sup
porters of Major McKinley. His atti
tude hitherto has been hostile to the
Ohio statesman only to the extent that
one rival candidate Is naturally an
tagonistic to the aspirant who blocks
his own chance of preferment. It has,
however, been an uttltude devoid of
personal 111 will and entirely consistent
with an amicable termination of hos
tilities. The attitude which Quay as
sumed from the llrnt was precisely like
that In which McKinley himself would
have been placed had the Pennsylva
nlan occupied the leading position in
the nomination canvass. Instead of the
Ohloan.
From assurances which have come
to us directly from the McKinley camp,
we rfel warranted In saying that noth--Uitf
now stands In the way of such an
Understanding between the two candi
dates as will give to Senator Quay In
connection with the national politics
of the next four years that measure of
Influence which may properly be al
lotted to the recognized leader of the
majority party In the state which casts
t he largest ltepubllcan plurality In the
list of Republican state victories. The
element In Pennsylvania which ha
used the prestige of McKinley's name
In Its attempt to unhorse Colonel Quay
Is viewed by close friends of the next
president in a light which holds out no
signal of danger to the Junior senator.
It Is, we believe, pretty well recognized
at Canton, ., that this element fought
for McKinley solely for local factional
purposes, and It Is exceedingly unlikely
that such u claim to recognition will
weigh against the years of brilliant po
litical and public service which decor
ate the career of Senator Quay.
It may be that a systematic warfare
on Senator Quay Is contemplated by
those who have commanded the fight
for McKinley delegates In Pennsylva
nia. Humors of a forthcoming consoli
dation of moneyed anti-Quay Interests
in Philadelphia have been for some
time current. The Immediate objective
point of this consolidation, according
to floating talk, is the successorshlp to
Senator Cameron, which It Is proposed
to bestow upon a certain Philadelphian
of ample means, whose alleged mission
In the enterprise is to supply the sinews
of war. This gentleman is now absent
In Europe, and until his return It would
be manifestly unfair to accept these re
ports as authentic. .But whatever
shape the opposition to Quay may take
In the near future In this state, we con
sider it highly unreasonable to suppose
that the nominee of the St. Louis con
vention will. In the seemingly Inevitable
event of his election, so far forget the
proprieties of his position as presi
dent as to ally himself with a minority
faction In a state fight .against one of
his competitors for the party's highest
honor. The supposition Involves a tacit
insult to William McKinley, which he
will doubtless In duegeasoii find ways
and means to rebuke.
, It Is safe to wager that Visitor Quay
Will get the glad hand.
Worth Looking into.
Probably the most drastic corrupt
practices act yet framed In this country
Is the one which has just been enacted
by the legislature of Minnesota. It
-closely grades the scale of permissible
political expenses and provides that
candidates for offlce must file with the
county auditor, thirty days after elec
tion, a sworn statement In writing set
ting forth in detail all moneys expended
by them during the campaign, the dates
when money was paid, and the names of
the persons to whom paid, and no cer
tificates of election can be made out un
til this statement has been filed. The
failure to make such statement lays
candidates liable to fine or imprison
ment, and not only so, but the candidate
who makes a false statement and- who
Is allowed to enter upon the discharge
of the duties of his office may be re
moved afterward If his opponent can
how that he has 'violated this law.
Honestly enforced, such a law ought,
It would seem,- to work material Im
provement. It Is probable that It will
have the approval of candidates them
elvea sines It would afford them an
opportunity to escape from the multi
plying demands nowadays made up
on them by strikers and dead
beats who represent only the suck
er element In politics. Inasmuch
as the next IVnnsylvanla legis
lature Is committed In advance to
a sweeping reform programme. It might
be worth while for some of our leading
reformers, like William H. Andrews or
Wllllnm Kllnn, to send for a copy of
the Minnesota act and pure over its
contents with a view to reproducing
their substance at llarrlsburg.
The Democratic pre.-is throughout the
state has again begun t' prejl'-t the
speedy decline and fall of Penator Quay,
but as usual the wish is th- only parent
which can be found for their thought.
A Specimen Act of Spanish Misrule.
The decree of tleneiul WVyler prohib
iting the exportation of leaf tobacco
from Cuba Is a fair example of the
arbitrary manner In which Spain gov
erns that unfortunate island. The
move Is probably intended as a double
blow of retaliation. Part of the Injury
will fall on Cuban planters, whom It
will deprive of a market for their crops.
Put In addition to that, it will work
serious hardships to Americans, will
diminish our tariff revenues and throw
from C0.0U0 to 10.UM) clgarmakers in
this country out of work. The fact that
many of these clgarmakers are Cubans,
who have been attracted to the United
States by .the. higher wages paid here,
will not diminish the sense of satisfac
tion which Weyler will get from his lit
tle coup.
All this time the president of the
I'nlted States, notwithstanding that he
was virtually ordered by congress to
accord formal recognition to the bellig
erent Cubans, keeps mum. permits him
self to be deceived by misrepresenta
tions on the part of the Spanish minis
ter nnd uses the power of his high
office in trying to prevent American
sympathizers with Cuba from giving
practlcnl effect to their feelings by
rhipplng munitions of war to the pa
triot army. It Is therefore not at all
singular that Senator Morgan has be
gun to Insist upon the adoption, before
congress shall adjourn, of his Joint res
olution which will force Mr. Cleveland's
hand. No other course would be con
sistent with the duty which congress
owes to the American people.
The proposition to raise a local good
roads fund by taxing every bicycle rltfer
$." a year has led the Plttston Item to
suggest that by waiting a few years
and then making the tax about $10 It
might be possible to do away with all
other forms of taxation In Scranton,
The Idea of waiting a few years Is cer
tainly good but It needs to be coupled
with a guarantee that at the end of that
period the tax ordinance shall be used
to light Its author's pipe.
The Tariff and Politics.
The point is well taken that the tariff
question can never be wholly eliminat
ed from politics, for the reason that
there will always be differences of opin
ion among the people as to whether the
tariff schedule Bhall be adjusted solely
with reference to Its revenue-getting
function, or whether its power to foster
and develop industry shull be the chief
concern. The journal which makes this
point the Chicago Times-Herald con
tends upon good grounds that "the set
tlement of this question Is 'politics,' and
upon each side there will always be a
sharp alignment of purty strength."
At the same time It would clearly con
duce to a more prosperous state of busi
ness If the framing of the various sched
ules, when congress had once decided
which principle should govern them,
could be left to a permanent commission
of experts. Such a commission, If told
to formulate a revenue tariff, would
not be likely to make such a mess as,
for example. Democracy made when,
after having set out to demolish pro
tection, It also felled prosperity and
produced only ruin and deficits. A per
manent commission could be engaged
In the practical study of the tariflfyiues
tlon all the time. It could learn In time
just what adjustment of duties would
be most likely to protect home Industry
and Just what adjustment would yield
the largest amount of revenue. In oth
er words, It could be a stationary cleri
cal bureau belonging to the ways und
means committee of congress, subject
to orders but capable, when those or
ders had been given, to obey them In
telligently and without waste of energy.
Such a commission would do much to
reduce the tariff issue to the dimensions
of a recognized science and protect it
from the odium attaching to the pres
ent method of Indiscriminate sectional
and corporate grabs for schedule favors
and preferences.
Along this line there is substantial
hope of ultimate progress. We take It
that no other line of activity Is contem
plated by the non-partisan tariff con
vention which Is called to meet next
month In Detroit. If something more
radical than this is purposed, It will no
toubt encounter defeat.
One contractor has offered New York
city 3243,000 a year for the privilege of
picking over offal and rubbish collected
by the carts of Gotham's street clean
ing department. It is estimated that
the item of bones and fat will alone
yield $52,000 revenue a year. Charles
Dickens' character of Boffin, ths "gold
en dustman," was evidently sketched
from life.
The recent story charging General
Gomez, commander-in-chief of the Cu
ban army, with having turned traitor
and sold out to the Spanish, emanated
It seems from the Spanish legation at
Washington. And It Is this legation
which has to all appearances hypno
tized President Cleveland.
In any view of the turnpike quarrel,
It is clearly the city's duty to make the
roadbed smooth and good; and the
sooner it doA this the better.
One does not like to believe that an
organization of the magnitude and
character of the Methodist quadrennial
conference could be unkind. Tet the
treatmentaccordedbylt at Cleveland to
the two venerable bishops whom it de
clared Ineffective Is of a 'nature to' in
spire among laymen a desire for fuller
explanations. We cannot doubt that
the action In itself was a necessity. But
there la somehow an Insuppresslble feel
ing that the manner In which It was
taken was not as nicely attuned to the
cardinal virtue of brotherly love as
would seem to be a natural expectation
In view of the character of the men who
took it.
The writer for the Philadelphia Bul
letin vh subscribes the pseudonym
"Penn" to one cf the most interesting
columns in contemporary Journalism,
thinks that "to o.fer the Rlt helieu of
IVnnsylvanla the vice-presidency
would be like dropping u catfish Into his
boat after he had started out to catch
a tarpon. Quay sitting like a dignified
dummy over the senate, with a gave)
In his hand and sliding down that short
rut Into obllviun, is not the kind of
round-up to a career that a boss, par
ticularly healthy und wideawake for a
man of 6!, Is likely to hanker after."
Such an offer Is not likely to be made;
but even the vice-presidency couldn't
extinguish Quay.
Mark Hanna has but one ambition.
"1 cu'n't afford to hold office." he says.
"I've k'.'t too many private Irons In the
fire. 1 never held a salaried ortb-e in my
life and I never will. I'm running this
campaign for glory and not for guin.
When it's over 1 will go back to my
knitting. All the reward I want from
Major McKinley Is his friendship, and
I'm sure I've thut already, but 1 would
like to go Into history as the man who
nominated him for president." Mark
hnsn't done this all by his lonesome.
Still, he deserves credit. His aim was
sure and true.
The Wllkes-Barre News-Dealer an
nounces that Representative Lelsen
ring,: owing to private business Inter
ests, will not be a candidate for renom
Inatlon and predicts that he will him
self make formal assertion of this fact
within a day or two. His retirement
from politics will, however, be only
temporary. The verification of this
prediction will open the door to some
lively politics In Old Luzerne.
Professor Dolbear, of Tufts college,
who has been making a scientific study
of the mysteries of spiritualism, has
promulgated the conclusion that while
there are some of the phenomena
which he can see through, there are
others which baffle his inquisitive
skill. This Ib an eminently prudent
decision. We question If Solomon him
self could have done better.
A stir has been occasioned in Lowell,
Mass., by an assertion from one of the
pulpits that of the 35,000 women bread
winners in that city, 20 percent, are 1m
moial. The minister who made this
assertion is hearing from his parish
ioners in a way which will effectually
dissuade him from further attempts
at pulpit sensationalism.
The difference between Chinese and
Japanese ideas of civilisation is illus
trated in the fact that while China
refuses to permit the introduction and
commercial utilization of electricity In
any form, Japan has Just sent a com
mission to this country to study the
workings of electrical power and of the
telephone system.
One of the Indirect effects of the Mc
Kinley sweep Is that It puts our es
teemed New York namesake once more

tige and prosperity. It Is a long lane
which has no turning.

TIIK CASE OF HAMMOND.
From the Washington Post.
It is natural and proper enough that a
greut deal of sympathy should be felt
und manifested in the case of John Huys
Humtnond, who was sentenced to death
at Pretoria, tho capital of the Traua
vaul republic in South Africa. He Is a
fellow countryman, widely and favorably
known, a gentleman of high standing
and Influential connections. The Idea of
such a man being put to death In a for
eign land was shocking, not only to those
who know him personally, tiut to tlhe
great mass of the American people. We
do not wonder that In Congress and else
where sorrow and Indignation found ve
hement expression.
And yet, with all our causes for :!
gret, for compassion, for solicitude, what
reul ground had we for protest or for
interference? Hammond denounced htm
pelf, confessed thut he was guilty of hUli
treason against the government tnat
sheltered und protected him, acknowl
edged that he conspired with other foes
of the Boer republic to betray and over
throw it. Can we as a nation deny to
the Transvaal republic the sacrc" right
of self-defense? Would we tolerute for
eign Interference lu the case of an alien
who hud plotted the destruction of our
own government and our betrayal into the
hands of enemies from without? Of
course, there is but one reply to these
queries. Slates and people have no dear
er right or holler duty than that of self
preservation. ,The most unpardonuble be
cause the most dangerous of crimes Is
high treason. That means the murder
of a nation.
That the Boer government has shown
leniency in this rase by commuting the
sentence Is gratifying. And yet these
Boers have been sorely outraged ami op
pressed by Knglaml for more than forty
years. Twice they have been driven from
the soil they had occupied, reclaimed from
desolation, and mudo to blossom with the
harvests of their patient Imtiitsry. Again,
II f teen years ago. the English Invaded
their territory with an army Intending
onne more to seize their possessions' and
drive them forth into t-.ie wilderness, and
now, despite the agreement reached In
1881 after the terrible punishment inflicted
upon the British, the Boers Und their nn
dent foes and persecutors plotting against
their national existence and integrity
against everything which states and poo
pies hold, most dear against that whl?h
Is more precious than life Itself. And In
this treacherous conspiracy contrived by
Englishmen, led by Englishmen, and hav
ing for its object the foul murder of nn
independent stute, the Boers found John
Hays Hammond in the character of i.n
active agent und participant. It is no:
a question f6r controversy. Hummond
himself 'removed It from the domuln of
doubt by pleading guilty to the charts
of high treason, ft Is not an hypothesis
It Is a fact.
We must consider this. The Boers ar
a serious people. They are beset by an
untiring, a tnlnntlesii, and insatiable foe
Knglaml. That nation, the universal
spoliator of the weak, has not In forty
years relinquished for one Instant Its lull
purpose to destroy, subjugate, and despoil
tho Boers. The latter are fighting for
their lives., for their honor, for (heir
homes, their families, and their liberties.
We must not forget that they may llnd
It dangerous to be too merciful,
AN INTERESTING DECISION.
The New York court of appeals has
just decided an Interesting case, the his
tory of which Is given In the Tribune as
follows: A man paid for and took pass
age on an elevated railroad train. The
train was so crowded that ha could not
?et a seat,. nor even Into, a car, but had
o ride on tho platform, with the gats
open. At the next station ha stopped off
for at moment, to let other alight, and
then. returned his place. Thtn some com
motion irow on the platform, through
the guard' et-uming with a drunken mau.
nd he tu forced between tha ends of
the cam tt they rounded a c-urve, an J
there gut his arm crushed, tie sued the
company for indemnity. Tho company's
defense was tnut.in boarding a crowded
car and standinx on the platform he w.i
guilty of contributory negligence. n had
only himself to blame. He should not have
sot on the car, or shoultl have stayed off
wheu he stepped off at the way station.
This dtfeiii we sustained by the court
of common pleas. In both trial and K?n
eral lei'mn, and the plaintiff was non
suited, 'i he court of api-als. by a vote of
four to thive, has reversed that decision,
und derli-.rtd thai the plaintiff had prima
fufla cause for action.
