Election lay, Nov. 3.
Tlie .Scranton Imll rlub should be
made to play up to Its demonstrated
capabilities. It can win games when
It chooses to, and It ought to fce made
to have such an Inclination often..
Welcome to the Booths.
Insofar as the representative senti
ment of Christian Soranton can mani
fest itself today. It should make plain
Its cordial sympathy with the platform
andpurposesof Mr. and Mrs. Uallington
Booth. They come not as strangers
nor as aliens exulting In their alle
giance to another flag, but, as Ameri
cans proud of the Institutions of their
adopted land and determined that In
the ministrations which they have been
called to superintend lov of God and
fellowship with man shall not be for
cibly divorced from love of country
and pride in Its civic significance.
That form of religious activity which
is conducted upon a platform of hos
tility to the Stars and Stripes can ex
pect small favor among patriotic
Americans. That system of philan
thropic organization which declares
that the flag of this republic must not
be displayed In American barracks nor
saluted In American parades need hope
for no genuine co-operation in the
United States. Nor la it feasible that
the control of an institution relying
for Its maintenance upon American
support should be vested absolutely In
foreign hands out of Joint with Ameri
can Ideas and openly contemptuous of
American principles. In plainer words,
so long as the Salvation Army remains
established upon the repressive lines
laid down for its government by a commander-in-chief
whom sight of our
national emblem moves to demonstra
tions of wrath, that long will the dis
criminating judgment of gooa Ameri
cans view its workings with diminish-'
ed esteem and feel fully Justified In
transferring their active co-operation
tt tho broader organization known as
Ihn American Volunteers.
American hospitality Is big and -.varm,
H gladly welcomes the deserving from
every land ami extends to such the
amplest measure of Its fellowship and
fsteem. But it does not propose that
its generosity shall be abused nor its
free right of uaylum repai.i by kicks
and cuffs. The foreigner who wishes
to work among us must become one of
us; the religious organization which
desires to thrive under the shelter of
free Institutions must put next to Its
religious tred the watchword: "Amerl
cm: patriotism." It is because Mr. and
Mrs. Uallington Booth have complied
with this condition when others near
of kl:i to them have failed that they
enjoy today the favor which will be
equally quick to go out to all who fol
low their example.
Whatever quarrel the public may
have had with reference to the accu
mulation of Jay Gould's millions, there
will be none over the us to which Miss
Helen Gould has put the $100,000 which
Bho has contributed to the relief of the
St. Louis cyclone sufferers. It was a
gracious and timely awt, about as un
like what her father would have'done
as woman's generosity is untlke the
average man's callousness.
The Uprising for Silver.
Certain facts underly the present up
rising for free silver which are not al
tered by the calling of names. It is,
for Instance, a fact readily established
that for the past score of years, and
especially during the past decade, there
has been a steady decline in prices,
easily noticeable In manufactured
goods but particularly discernible In
the staple products of agriculture. The
result of this decline has been to di
minish the Income of the farmer and
decrease the artisan's chances for
steady employment In the meantime,
taxes and Interest charges have re
mained fixed, causing these burdens to
seem to Increase;; ' .
The Manufacturer, 1 discussing this
, point, makes use of ,an instructive Il
lustration. Citing (he fadt that In 1880
the United States wheat crop sold for
$474,101,860 while the costs of the fed-
eral government were only $26000,000,
II MrVM that In 1I$0 the American
wheat crop would have paid the ex
penses of the government almost twice
over. In 18S9, however, the American
wheat crop sold for only $:42,91.707
while the expenses of government were
$13,000,000 in excess of this sum; and tn
1S5 the wheat crop brought $237,9nS,99S
while the government cost $433,178,426
or nearly twice as much. Our Phila
delphia contemporary notes also that
In its city the municipal government
costs 34? per cent, more today than It
did ten years ago, although the popu
lation has hot grown to exceed S3 1-3
per cent., and the wages of labor are
lower now than then, with employment
less regular and secure.
This downward movement In prices,
which It will be remembered was veri
fied four years ago by special inquiry
by a committee of the senate. Is con
trasted in another way with the rigid
ity of tax charges In a statement pre
sented before the railroad commission
era of Illinois by J. H. Paddock. He
showed that in 1895 164.529 miles or rail
way yielded to their owners and credi
tors tour million dollars less than had
been yielded by 147.6S3 miles In JSSS,
but that they paid nearly fourteen mil
lion dollars more taxes. Stating the
fact In a different way, he alleged that
while, in the period referred to. the
I taxes per mile of road had increased
from $172 to $238, the net Income, ap
plicable to fixed charges, had fallen
from $1,963 per mile to $1,739. As go
the railways, so" goes general trade.
Coming more directly to the agricul
tural phase of this question, we have
no lack of evidence as to the deprecia
tion which is in progress in the value of
farm lands and farm products. We
published some weeks ago the results
of a special Inquiry made into this sub
ject In New Ycrk state, covering every
agricultural county. The conclusion, it
will be remembered, was that while
near-by city markets for farm produce
had Increased between 18?0 and 1890 to
exceed 100 per cent., estimating tue in
crease In urban population which has
to depend upon the farms for Its food
supply, the net falling off In the value
of farm produce In 1890 as compared
with 1880 was over 37 per cent. Or, as
George T. Powell expresses It, "While
from 1870 to 1880 more wealth was add
ed to our country than England had
accumulated In her entire history prior
to that period, from some cause or
causes farmers had not shared In the
proportion of this great gain as their
great interest would seem to have war
ranted. While city landed property
has steadily advanced and corporations
have had added to them millions in
profits, farm land has depreciated in
value, and the income from the soil has
been growing steadily less."
The foregoing are a few of the facts
which offer fruitful soil for the propa
gation of the free silver crUBade. If
those who wish to defend the gold
standard until bimetallism shall be es
tablished by international agreement
want, Instead of losing ground, to gain
it, they should direct definite argu
ments to proving that these evidences
of a general decline in prices are not
brought about by the narrowing of the
base of the world's currency to one
precious metal but are due to wholly
different causes, such as over-production,
the opening of new grain fields,
multiplied facilities of production and
transportation and the passing of the
individualistic in favor of the collectlv
ist type of Industrial activity. Merely
calling the silver men names will not
convince them of the error of their
ways.
Even tho managers of the Trunk
Lines association now admit that an
honest and earnest enforcement of the
Interstate commerce law is to be desired
by the railroads as well as by the pub
lic. And thus light conquers darkness.
The Watterson Idea.
The prevailing note in Colonel Wat'
tersnn's speech in London the other
night was not necessarily martial, an
some seem to Infer. Although he pro
claims himself a jingo, neither he nor
any other jingo has a wish for precipi
tate war. Of the public men of this
generation whose memories reach back
with distinctness to the period of.our
last unpleasantness, Colonel Watterson
is probably In a position to keep pace
with any other American In realizing
the awful suffering and loss of war,
and therefore In wishing to postpone as
long as may be without violence to
manhood the day of the next resort to
arms.
Vet not always by the cry of "peace!"
"peace!" is real peace to be preserved.
That thought at which Colonel Wat
terson revolted in his characteristically
interesting manner was not at ell the
Idea that peace Is to be desplBed, but
that it Is to be won from England for
America by a policy of oratorlal weep
ing and sobbing over the fact of a
mutual kinship to which we have lately
fallen Into' the humiliating error of
doing all the pointing. The recent
speeches of Ambassador Bayard, If
they have exalted one theme above
another, have put uppermost the
thought that the common legacy of the
English speaking race is such an
ennobling one that the dear people of
the mother country ought from very
pity's sake to refrain from allowing the
Waywardness of the North American
offspring to provoke her to blows. Por
this apologetic and lachrymose theory
Colonel Watterson substitutes the more
rational proposition that If English
men have a history Americans have
one also, and that a good help to
keeping the peace between them Is for
both branches of the AnSto-Saxon
race to bear In mind that when It
comes to fighting the other is no
slouch, -
While as a matter of fact it always
sicretly pleases us when a good, sen
libit Englishman, tike Hall Calnt or
Professor I3ryce, says an appreciative
word concerning America, this country
ought by this time to feel big enough
and broad enough not to go among the
other powers begging for compliments
or favors. Ilather thah cling after the
fashion of Infancy to the apron of
mother England sobbing for immunity
from a switching, it ought rather to be
our welcome privilege to rest our cane.
whether for peace or war, upon the dls- ;
nlty of a full-grown manhood, con- j
rclous of its power to meet and malcii
whomsoever may wish to court a com
petition, in any line of honorable ac
tivity. ..
That Is a good point made by Colonel
John Hay In his letter to the London
Times when he suggests that if Eng
lishmen want to further amicable feel
ings between the two branches of the
Enr.llsh-BpeaUlng race, they should
fctrlve to repress the creation in Ewr
land of false prejuulcs against the next
president of tho United States. It is
to be remembered that the 70,000,010
Bpeakcrs of English who Inhabit this
continent have st'.'.l a rlsht to choose
as their official head the man who best
plra?cs them, and as their choice he
becomes entitled to the sanw rcspct
which would be accorded to any other
ruler of an equal number of Intelligent
and respectable human beings.
Mr. Joseph H. Manley, of Augusta,
Me., has taken the trouble to tele
graph to a Boston paper that Mr. Reed
will not accept the nomination for
vice-president." With all due respect to
Mi. Joseph H. nfanley the only man
whose word can be considered as au
thoritative in this matter Is that of
Hon. Thomas B. Reed, and when he
shall explicitly declare that hn would
Bcorn the call of his parly to what It
conceives to be his duty thun, and not
before, will It be time to consider an
other choice.
Senator Morgan's curiosity concern
ing the modern mission of congress Is
shured by many. It looks as it our
present executive had at last succeed
ed In making congress not only igno
minious but also superfluous.
Nicholas of Moscow may think he
Is something of a czar, but Grover of
Washington, although 83 yet un
crowned, Is evidently prepared to give
him, a large variety of new and sur
prising points.
M'KINLEY AND EUROPE.
From the Times-Herald.
Concerning the morally sure course of
the congress elected with William Mo
Klnley and of McKinley himself aa presi
dent, these things are to be said:
First, that the American people have
no hostility to any other group of the
human family; but.
Secondly, the first law of economics is
self-preservation. Therefore,
Thirdly, William McKinley, supported
by an undoubtedly Republican federal
legislature, will abolish the deficit in the
United States treasury by raising the
necessary revenue by the only means all
American parties, except anarchists,
have agreed that revenue for the ordi
nary expenditures of the government
should be procured, namely, by duties on
imports.
Fourthly, it will be the policy of Presi
dent McKinley not only thus permanent
ly to put an end to treasury deficits, but
also at the same time to accomplish an
other equally necessary object, namely,
to put un end to Invasion of the gold re
serve for ordinary revenue, thus protec:
ing the reserve so far as that is possible
while United States paper and silver are
against it.
Fifthly, as to duties on imposts for
protection, it will be the policy of Presi
dent McKinley and a Republican congress
to keep the wages of American labor out
of competition with the wages of Euro
pean labor, and to this extent and no fur
ther will the policy of protection be ap
plied. Its revival will be coupled with
resuscitation of reciprocity. The Inter
ests of American trade, not of parties or
of sections, will be alone considered In 1
reform of the present Inadequate tariff
law.
President McKinley and the congress
to be elected with him will be for the
i,old standard with the largest use of sil
ver consistent with that stnndard, the
silver to be maintained at par with gold,
according to the ploilee of the national
I honor and the parity clause of the act of
j 3680.
I If Europe is not satisfied with this pro-
gramme It must be under the delusion
! that American lr.titutions are not intend
ed primarily for the American people and
their children
LET IT CONTINUE.
From the Philadelphia Times.
Tho revival of American patriotism
manifested by the spread of hereditary
patriotic societies should have occurred
long ago, but even at this late day It is to
be encouraged, not v criticised or con
demned. There will bo brainless snobs
in the membership who will vainly consli.
or themselves better or more fortunate
then their neighbors, but there have been
brainless snots in all generation, ar.d
they would be no les3 numerous if patri
otic soeietlas were unknown. A revival
of patriotism should permeate our whola
body Rolltlc and bo r ven intelligent n!id
effective expression in our whole system
of education, nnd any agency that can
or will contribute to this desirablo and
necessary end 13 to be encouraged. Th:-o
cannot be too much Interest manlfoste.l
In thn stuiy of early American history
end the preservation ami perpetuation of
our few remaining historical landmarks.
THE DEATH DEALING Wilt IS.
From the Times-Herald.
Three more deaths from overhead elec
tric wires are reported. The slaughter
goes on without Interruption. Every day
Increases thn crlm list and It is lmr.lly
possible, to pick up a newspaper without
being confronted by a brief account of tho
horrible death of seme unfortunate citizen
by a shock from a broken electric light or
trolley wire. Meanwhile the councllmen
discuss ordinances for muzzling dogs, al
though the number of deaths from rabies
is inslsnlllcant compared with the mor
tality from tho wires.
In tho prccent advanced state of me
chanical construction there is no excu.;a
for maintaining overhead wires carrying
a sulliclcnt current to kill a mun. They
are an offense to the sight, an .ajury to
property and a constant nn nucu to human
life. Down with them! Ihey are better
underground than the ir.nocont people
who they destroy.
KEED'g ONE AMDITION.
Wellnian, in the Tlmca-Hcrald.
It may not be generally known, but It Is
true that Mr. Reed has literary ambition.
I have myself heard the speaker say that
If he had not gone Into politics when a
young man he would have tried to make a
competence In the law, and after that
would have tried his hand at literature.
He believes, In a modest way, he could
have mad a hams for himself with his
pen,' Literature is his natural bent.- H
is his passion. T this day he haa aspira
tions in that field. ' There are few things
worth reading that he baa not read. Me
has read the br-t In French and Italian,
and la now turning h' attention to Spaa,
hh. tie does not like translations, but
loves the original tcngue. Freneh an-i
Italian he has mastered, Spanish he will
have In a fw months oni German will
come next. Ueed taiks more of booK
than of politics. Among hie frienda his
literary attainments, his analyses and cri
tiques, hit play of fancy and Imagination,
t;t grcatiy admired, one o( these frttnus.
It 'tku-eir a llteiary man of note, said to
,-lf .Mr. Reed would ifo Into luer.i
lure he could make himself famous, lie
could write the treat American novil
which we have lal been looking far aa
many years."
NLWS AND OPIXIOX.
From the Times-Herald.
Th: function of a newspaper primarily is
to collect, digest and publish news to
present with approximate fidelity an epi
tome of what the world Is doing, locally
and universally, every day. Honest re
porting is the llrat essential of an honest
newspaper. A reporter ousht to be a
phonograph. With the literal uccuracy of
that machine reports of conventions and
ail public assemblies that concern public
Weltare shoui.l be presented In the news
columns of an honest newspaper.
It in not the right or the duty or the
privilege of an honest newspaper to "do;,
tor" reports. The great Intelligent mzci
of a. catumunlty wants to know exactly
what public movements moan; Who lead
them, who are ltd In thtm, what their
le!c Is and where they are polng; at wh it
irtl ultimately they may ba expected to
arrive.
The opinions of a newspaper ore dis
tinct from its n'jws. News is public prop
erty. That belongs to the public. The
opinions of a newspaper are Its own.
REFERRED TO MR. SCRAXTOX.
From the New York Sun.
Tho population of Arltona was 40,000 by
tho federal census of 1SS0 and 59,000 by tho
federal centca of 1!H. The claim Is now
made by those who favor the admission of
Arlxona as a state that tho present popu
lation Is nearly 70,t. The Seventh wur.l
of New York has a population of 75,0v0.
tho Tenth w.'tid n population of 7U.0O'), the
I'.lcveuih ward S,tW, the Twentieth Ward
65.000, tho Seventeenth ward the
Nineteenth ward 273,010 and the Twolf:h
ward 400.0U0. and the proposition to give
either of them two representatives In
tho United States senate, on the basis al
the popu lotion, would be rejected ns pre
posterous. It Is probable, by tho leaders of
both parties.
MILL BE RENEWED.
From tho Times-Herald.
The testimony In support of the con
tention that the abandonment of the
reciprocity arrangements negotiated un
der the iMcKlnley act of 1890 resulted in
irreparable lass to our commercial in
terests Is so overwhelming that no tariff
act of the future will be complete or satis,
factory to the country that does not cm
body the reciprocity principle. There s
no politics In trade.
