"The services of McKlnley's friends,"
says Mark Hannn, "will be valued by
the sacrtllces they made." Well, Col
onel Quay baa already sacrificed the
presidency.
The New Traction Company.
Upon Its face, the proposition of the
Cltiaens' Street Railway company to
the city of Scranton looks fair. The
new company agrees, If voted certain
franchises, to begin the construction of
Its llneB within one year following the
signing of the ordinance, and to com
plete It within two years, under for
feiture of all franchise rights. It fur
ther agrees to file a bond as a guarantee
of the genuineness of Its Intentions, said
bond to become forfeited If any of ihe
franchise conditions be not observed by
the company. By way of compensation
for the rights sought, the company
pledges Itself to pay Into the city treas
ury an annual tax of $2 a car, which
may not be a very ample consideration,
but which at all events Is $2 a car more
than the Scranton Traction company is
paying for rights even more valuable.
The attitude of the public toward this
proposition Is, we believe, embodied in
the statement that It wants fair, treat
ment and good service, The city la
steadily growing, and If with, this fact
In mind a, second transit company
wishes to enter the field as a competi
tor for the public's patronage we believe
that It will receive a cordial welcome
and retain the favor of the people just
so long as It Bliall deserve to. The new
company would possess several advant
ages not enjoyed by the company now In
possession of the city's streets. It
would be composed entirely of home
capitalists familiar with , the city's
needs; it would not be weighted down
with such a burden of fixed charges as
would necessitate a cramping of its ser
vice: and It would start with the marked
advantage of new equipment, Including
all the latest Improvements. Insofar
as Its coming would dispossess the older
corporation, that would call for no spe
cial sympathy since the Scranton Trac
tion company has paid virtually nothing
for Its privileges and given to the pub
lic, in way of service, considerably less
satisfaction than the field clearly calls
for.
Competition Is the order of the day.
There Is scarcely a department of busi
ness In which It does not prevail. While
the building of the Hotel Jermyn may
have seemed a blow at the Wyoming
house, It has proved of decided advant
age to the city and the Wyoming house
is still making money. If a new street
car system will have a similar effect, we
say let It come; the nooncr the better.
Mr. Cleveland's opinions on the third
term question now probably coincide
with the fox's opinion of the unattain
able grapes.
McKinley and Silver.
The letter which Major McKinley Is
aid to have written to the secretary
of the Btark county, O., Farmers' Al
liance, under dp. te of Oct 27, 1890, repre
sents him as saying: "I am In favor
of the use of all the silver product of the
United States for money as a circulat
ing medium." By "all the silver pro
duct of the United States" In meant, wo
assume, that portion of the total pro
duct not Used In the arts.
It Is estimated by experts that
on an average GO per cent of
our total silver product is utilised for
commercial purposes, leaving only 40
per cent, open to coinage. The total
yearly product of sliver in this country
has never gone above $$0,000,000 and la
now about $40,000,000 In round numbers.
Forty per cent, of this would be from
$16,000,000 to $33,000,000. Our annual In
crease In population is 1,000,000. To
keep our per capita circulation at $25
would require the absorption each year
of $2S,000,000 of new money, which Is
about the amount contemplated In the
foregoing proposition ascribed to Wil
liam McKinley. .'.'.-
It Is not certain that Major McKinley
evor wrote this letter. He denies hav
ing any recollection of it. But if he did
write it, he need not be ashamed of It,
for It embodies a sound and sensible
proposition; exactly on the llaes of the
one which tbla paper has repeatedly
V'''- -' i ' '.A
suggested as a safe and wholesome so
lutlon of the currency problem. Our
plan, it will be remembered, was to
levy a tariff on foreign allver sufficient
to keep It out of the country and then
admit to coinage at a ratio to gold cor
responding with the ratio of former
times, namely, 16 to 1 or, for that mat
ter, any other ratio, since the ratio
Itself is not the thing of chief Import
ancesuch a percentage of the Ameri
can silver product as would not be di
verted into the arts. We fall to see and
wo have consulted some eminent au
thorities on the subject how this plan
would In any wise imperil the sound
ness of our currency, how It could
cause any Ioes of our gold or how the
result of sui'h a limited expan
sion of our circulation to fit the normal
growth In population would have other
than a beneficial effect upon the coun
try, which now Is admittedly suffering
from currency contraction.
Fj-ee and unlimited coinage of the
world's silver by this nation alone
would mean the replacement of our
gold by silver at halt the value of gold.
It would, therefore, he ruinous. But tho
limited coinage of protected American
silver would give to this country an
elastic currency every dollar of which
would be as good the. world over as a
Bold dollar for the reason that when
ever a foreigner preferred one of our
Bold to one of our silver dollars we could
cheerfully give It to him, knowing full
well that In course ot time, undt?r a pro
tective tariff, tho balance of trade, no
longer swing! nir against us ns 1st ths
case under the Wilson bill, would bring
the gold dollar back to us again.
Thls, we suspect, was ihe thought In
Major McKlnley's mind when he wrote
that letter. If write It he did. It Is a
logical extension of the protective prin
ciple to the product which American
labor digs from American silver mines,
and we have yet to be shown wherein
It is unwise, unjust or unBafe.
International bimetallism Is by no
means an Iridescent dream. Once let
Russia and the Orient absorb gold In
the development of their Industries to
one-half the extent that it has been
absorbed by the older countries of civil
ization and the world will be compelled
to vnetlze silver or else hobble along
on i.-V j'noney.
The Jury System.
The Chicago Times-Herald prints not
on Its editorial page but In such a man
ner as to carry editorial Indorsement
an attack upon the Jury system which
is sufficiently energetic to be worth re
peating. We suspect that It was penned
by Judge Kohlsaat, the brother of the
Chicago paper's owner.
"The way to improve the Jury sys
tem," says this contributor, whoever he
may be, "Is to abolish it. The Jury sys
tem, as exemplified in actual, continual,
dally practice throughout the United
States, In courts of every degree of de
corum, from the yawning panel in the
police court to ihe substantial dozen
who flank the judges in the higher
courts, is a rank and outrageous mock
ery. It Is the most expensive adjunct of
our judicial system, and Its results are
the most worthless. It is above all
things a breeder of bribes, ft refuge for
Ignoramuses, a castle from which to
work In safety any sort of Injury, a use
less, Idiotic, malice-Infested and ghost
supported pest. There has not been a
litigant In the last fifty years who was
profited the weight of an honest penny
by the Intervention of a Jury. And the
litigants who have suffered are named
legion, while the public which has paid
for the larger portion of the bill Is
patient and long-suffering beyond all
bounds of reason.
"Absolutely, a jury Is helpless, except
to work Injury. It is more helpless than
the sparrows that twitter on the win-dow-sllls,
when It comes to adding to
the chance of a just administration of
the law. , A Jury Is the judge of the evi
dence, yet the court can order a certain
verdict, and may set a verdict aside u
It is not In accordance with the evi
dence. The jury Is a co-ordinate branch
of the court, yet the judge may send a
juryman to jail or all of them, If he
likes, because they refuse to recognize
him as a superior. Jurymen are the
bulwark of American liberties, the safe
guard of freemen, the chosen 'peers.'und
yet they may be bullied and browbeaten
and Insulted and ordered about by ev try
little scrap of a lawyer who can borrow
his way to a diploma. As a matter of
fact, few men are tried by their peers,
and few cases see a jury of qualified or
competent men in the box. The rag-tag
and bobtail gets into the Jury box by a
system that, like the peace of Ood,
passeth all understanding. It Is paid
a price which wouldn't hire competent
men. Evidence which not a man of the
twelve can understand Is projected at
the jury for days at a time. Matters of
the nicest balancing are given for this
Indifferent body of men to determine,
No wonder the old lawyer said If th-ire
was anything Cod Almighty didn't
know, It was what verdict an American
jury would bring in.
"But it is in criminal trials that the
gravest Injustice is done. There are
half a dozen men in this town who can
get a jury to acquit or save by dls
agreement any man so elected. Their
friends are beyond the reach of punish
ment. There are three lawyers who
will, to an absolute certainty, secure
an acquittal or a disagreement If they
can come Into the case before the jury
Is drawn. And ono of them can come
Into a case the day the panel is called
and guarantee a disagreement at the
least. Of what good, then, Is the jury?
How docs It help the fends of Justice?
Where can it, even If It were ideal, do a
single thing better than can tho Judge?
Is there an objection to trusting your
life, your liberty or your fortune to any
slnglo human intelligence? But one
man decides It, anyway. All twelve
must agree, or there Is no verdict. It
were too much to describe how they r-
rive at a verdict sometimes; 'but that
sacred fetich, a verdict, there must be,
or the whole work must be done over.
Any one man of the twelve may prevent
it."
This sounds rabid enough. But is It
as rabid as It sounds? Is not the Jury
system as at present exemplified just
about the kind ot a farce outlined
above? Would not one or three paid
judges, chosen for life or good behavior,
make a safer tribunal before which to
submit evidence? Think It over.
It is related of Colonel Abe Slupsky,
Mr. Dana's St. Louis favorite who was
numbered among 'the cyclone's victims,
that In 1892 he just misled being nom
inated for president. After the Blaine
men were beaten the convention was
In doubt. Slupsky was drinking In the
bar of the West house, and did not
know the delegates were looking for a
candidate. After Harrison had been
nominated General Slupsky heard that
for a time the delegates were begging
for a candidate "Why," ralJ he, "If I
knew dey were lookln' fer a man I'd a
gone in mcself." The west will mourn
Slupsky and the east will Join in the
grief.
Probably when Ballington Booth saw
the picture of htm which was printed
In yesterday's Republican he was re
minded of Judge Willard's story about
tho young man who wanted a cele
brated artist to paint his father's pic
ture. Tho son explained tliut his fath
er was dead and that he had left no
photograph, but the artist was told to
so ahead and do the best he could. Fin
ally, when the portrait was unveiled,
the young man, after contemplating It
In silence for a time, remarked sadly:
"If that Is father, great heavens, how
he must have changed!"
The Philadelphia Ledger used to be
an honest paper; but we find difficulty
In reconciling with honesty Its arralgn
ment of the compulsory education law
because, forsooth, local school boards
In certain sections do not provide suf
ficient school accommodations. On the
same principle it Bhould urge the repeal
of laws against crime because in some
places the jails are overcrowded.
It is no surprise that the supporters
cf Major McKinley all over the coun
try are urging upon him the selection of
Mark Hanna ns the next national chair
man. Such a choice would be the only
logical result of Hanna's masterly man
agement of the nomination canvass.
Hanna owes It to the party to complete
the work he has so well begun.
The proposition to change the basis
of representation in future Republican
national conventions so as to give the
controlling say to states with Repub
lican electoral votes Is opposed only by
the Irresponsible carpet bag element ot
the south and southwest. Their oppo
sition Is an eloquent argument in its
favor.
It has been suggested that inasmuch
as the battleground of this year's pres
idential campaign will be the west, the
national headquarteis of the two
parties ought to be transferred to Chi
cago. The suggestion looks plausible.
Report has It that ex-Senator J. Sloat
Fassett has sold his controlling interest
In the F.lmira Advertiser to a New York
syndicate favorable to T. C. Piatt. It
will take a good many neWbpapers,
however, to perpetuate Piatt's sway.

From the Times-Herald.
Ensllshment are just now felicitating
themselves over the splendid financial
showing made by the EngJIsh. government
during the past year. Their national debt
has been decreased and tho budget for
lM)t shows a surplus of JJ!,00CUol. Thte
condition of things is pointed to with prldd
by Englishmen as an achievement cf wise
statesmanship results of a sound finan
cial administration that indicate great
nntlBnal prosperity. Governor MdKnley
represents better than any other Ameri
can statesman this sound English policy
of having a surplus instead cf a deficit.
Under the McKinley law there was a sur
plus of revenues over expenditures of
M.2M.TM.N on June 30, 1891; of S9.914.453.00
on June 30, 1892, and of $2,341,074.29 on June
30, im.
SOUTHERN JUSTICE.
From the Times-Herald. '
There Is an amusing side to the South
Carolina attempts at disfranchising tie
CTOp's under the educational test of the
new constitution. Negroes are required to
read and understand such sections of the
cnnntltutlon as contain words like "man
damus," "quo warranto," 'conveyance,"
"ex post facto" and "subsidy." They fail,
of course, and thus are deprived of the
suffrago privilege "according to law."
When white Illiterates apply the officers
make matters easy for them by giving
them sections free from all technical and
uncommon terms. This Injustice had beta
foreseen and predicted, however, and bow
excites no surprise. Is the country grow
ing indifferent to the negro problem?
A BIT OF PROPHECY.
Rochester Democrat and Chronicle.
The Republicans will declare for protec,
lion to home Industriv. for ample revenue,
for absolute Integrity in our monetary sys
tem, er.d tor a foreign policy which shall
uncompromisingly maintain the national
honor. The Republican party will pursue
Ita chosen course, appealing to the Interest
and conscience and patriotism of the peo
ple, and will win success by deserving 't.
The path of duty is clear, the way to vic
tory is open, and the march will be made
along tho straicht line of what la right
and beneficial to the wholo nation.
Ql'At MAY WITHDRAW.
W. E. Curtis, In Chicago Record.
No one need be surprised if Senator
Quay withdraws from the presidential
race within the next few days and re
quests his supporters to cast their votes
for McKinley. It is understood that he
has already written a letter to that effect
to a member of the Pennsylvania delega
tion and is withholding it to consult
frltr.ds.
