Easily the most Idiotic suggestion of
tlie season is that the St. Louis conven
tion nominate Grover Cleveland.
a Palmer for Congress.
In re;.ly to a direct inquiry as to
whether ho was a candidate for con
gress in the Twelfth district, ex-Attorney
General Palmer recently told a rep
resentative of the Wllkes-Bavrs Record:
"In the sense that every citizen should
always be willing to accept any office
he is competent to fill and for which he
is selected hy his fellows, I am a can
didate tor congress. If being a candi
date involves personal solicitation of
the votes of delegates, payment of sums
tif money, large or small, to secure dele
gntcs at the primary election, or If it
means that I must bid for the nomina
tion or elec'.i'.'ii and have it on condition
that I am willing to name a larger pries
than some other citizen, then I am not
a candidate for that or any other office."
This Is in more pointed words a repe
tition of the Bentiments uttered by Mr.
Palmer Immediately after Representa
tive Lelsenring's letter of withdrawal.
The Tribune at that time commended
Mr. Palmer's stand, and it still believes
that his announcement is a challenge to
the decent citizenship of Luzerne coun
ty to Of dert Itself at the party primaries
In behalf of clean politics and party
preferment on ' the basis of merit.
Thirty-two years at the bar as a prac
ticing attorney, four years in the office
of attorney-general, one year as a dele
gate to the constitutional convention
and many years of stoje-wlde renown
In connection with public affairs consti
tute ex-Attornpy General Palmer's
record as a cltlztn. If any of his com
petitors can matc'u It er beat It, well
and good; but let the test be fitness and
not mere wealth. The scandal of two
years ago ought certainly not to be re
peated in 1S96.

Church Saloons.
The question whether it la feasible to
Germanize the business of llquor-sell-
.ins In the United States and by this
word we mean to surround It with such
social features as render relatively
' harmless the use of lntoxlt-ants In Ger
manyIs an old one, concerning which
there probably will never be an agree
ment of opinion. The attempt has been
made many times to reform the saloon,
not by abolishing lt-j-a feat not yet pos
sible but by surrounding It with de
sirable Influences. In the case of Bishop
Fallows' so-called "home" saloon it
seemed at one time likely to attain a
successful Issue, but later reports are
to the effect that the "home" saloon has
failed to pay expenses; and thus the
record of disasters In this direction Is
rendered complete.
According to report another experi
ment in this line 1b Boon to be begun,
this time in West Superior, Wis. A
Rev. Mr. Starkweather, who is also an
ex-mayor, Is, It Is said, about to estab
lish a place of entertainment and re
freshment to be conducted on the plan
of a concert saloon. '"There will," we
are told, "bo no bar, simply a Conveni
ently arranged sideboard, where the
drinkables will be kept, also the neces
Hary Icebox for use In summer-time.
Tl'.e floor is to be neatly carpeted and
a plentiful supply of tables and chairs
will be placed about the room for the
use of patrons. In a room partitioned
off from the barroom more tables and
chairs will be placed and a plentiful
supply of books, papers and periodicals
will be found upon a long writing table.
In one end of this room 'there will be a
stage upon which scientific exhibitions
and other entertainments may t given.
There will be no selling of liquor to
minors, no Sunday opening, no all-night
'reveling arid no gambling, except that
the patrons will be allowed to play
cards or shake dice for drinks and
' cigars." .'' .. ,Y: '.'
- At first glance It is difficult to detect
. the material d Iff erpnoe between such a
place and ah ordinary "free-and-easy."
tTet from this distant It. Is impossible
. to Judge correctly as tO( the., needs of
.West Superior. ' If Rev! Mr. Stark,
weather's project can do good, it will
deserve mcourafl mnt no mutter how
much at variance) It mny be with con
ventional idea of a clergyman's mis
sion. - The employment of practical
weapons In the church's battle against
vice Is not to be despised provided they
really be practical The church saloon,
however, has yet to prove that It Is en
titled to be entered In this class.
Partner Benedict's threat to bolt the
Chicago convention if free silver car
ries Is another one of those Wall street
blunders which are worse than crimes in
Inflaming the west and south against
"sound money."
The Slie of the Array.
Each year the Military Service insti
tution offers a prize for the beat essay
on a military theme submitted by a
regular in the army. The winner of this
year's award is by Major George S. Wil
son, and its subject is "The Size of the
Army." Major Wilson uses as his text
the words of Washington: "There is a
rank due the United States among na
tions which will be withheld, if not
absolutely lost, by a reputation of weak
ness. It we desire peace, it must be
known that we are at all times ready
for war."
Although It is not our government's
policy or necessity to maintain a largi
standing army. It Is the major's conten
tion that we should have one the size
of which would bear a fixed ratio to our
total population. Not only have we
had, since the revolution, three actual
wars and several Indian sklrml: l.es, but
there Is a growing class of field em
ployments for our armed forces, even in
time of peace, namely, that of executing
tho laws of the United States when tha
civil power requires armed assistance
and the laws authorise It. An evnrr.pls
has been the Pennsylvania" whisky riots
of 194. Other uses of trooj.3 were in
Kana&s and again at Harper's Ferry,
in John Brown's raid, under Uuchan
an's administration. Still another was
ths Utah expedition of 1SS7 and 1S3S. in
which about 2,300 regulars were cm
ployed against the Mormons. The re
construction period following the civil
war again made calls on the army. Still
later the strike riots, involving the

use the New York Sun's intelligent
synopsis of Major Wilson's paper is to
serve as the nucleus and model of a largs
volunteer force, should one ever be re
quired for war, and, meanwhile, during
times of peace, to dlssemlnut military
knowledge and training among the peo
ple. This last-named function it has of

!ate years been pursuing to a larger and
larger extent, through the system of in
structing schools and colleges in mili
tary tactics by the detail of army oEl
cers to them. And coupled with that is
the object lesson which the army itself
furnishes by maintaining a high stand
ard of discipline and obedience, which
is all the more useful and suggestive in
a degree of individual freedom prevails.
The army must be the "embodied mar
tial bouI of the nation," says Major Wil
son, and it should also maintain rela
tions of usefulness and help with the
citizen soldiery of the states.
As to the present need of Increasing
the army Major Wilson bases it first on
the need of reorganizing tho Infantry,
In order that it may obtain better drill
exercises for companies and battalions,
and thus bo better prepared for war.
. Next he would base It on such experi
ence as that of Chicago in 1S94, because
no man can say that a similar or even
more dangerous defiance of the laws
might not occur at any time under cir
cumstances requiring the Intervention
of a federal force. In the third place,
our relations with foreign countries de
mand that we shall not let our army
remain stagnant, at a basis fixed years
ago, when all Europe is a military
camp. The Hawaiian troubles, the
Nicaragua canal, many South Ameri
can disturbances, the affairs of Cuba
and Venezuela, the Behring sea dispute,
the Alaska boundary question, are only
some of many international matters out
of which war might come. The British
lion has his claws all over the American
continent. He has an ally of $.000,000
stalwart Anglo-Saxons stretched from
cne end to the other of our northern
frontier, with the great St. Lawrence
to float his largest ships of war well to
our rear, and canals by which his gun
boats can reach Chicago and Duluth.
He has a line of strongholds and fortifi
cations all the way from Quebec, Hall-
fax and Bermuda, passing down our
Atlantic seaboard scarcely out of sight
of our land, and on around South Amer
ica. He has also a naval station and
fortifications at our back door on Puget
Sound.
With one-sixth of our national life,
In the century from 175 to 1875 devoted
to war, and with 6,000,000 of our citizens,
Including the confederate armies, en
rolled from first to last for military pur
poses, it Is plain that even our predilec
tions toward peace cannot always in
sure it. In the civil war alone, says
Major Wilson, more men fell thnn the
British Isles have sacrificed in all their
wars since the days of William the Con
queror; and, "In one century of our ex
istence, we have made more use of the
military arm of the government In sup
pressing Internal disorders than Eng.
land in all the time since the Monmouth
rebellion." And, besides the employ
ment of the army hitherto set forth,
more troops must be furnished as garri
sons for the new seaboard defenses.
The Increase of f artillery arm, there
fore, becomes of the first importance.
It Is noteworthy that, in 1789, when the
government was founded under the eon
stltutlonj we had existing a federal force
of only 672 officers and men. But In 1800
there were 4,0Sl;;.ln 1820, 8,688; In 1840,
10.570. In tha year 18(0 tha number was
Increased to 16.3S7. while just after tha
civil war it reached 06.815. Reduction
carried it in 1S70 down to S7.075. and
few years later It was reduced to about
Its present legal maximum. Taking
last year, for example, Its strength was
27.S97. This last force is not only, of
course, far less than that which other
nations maintain, as it properly may be,
but It is much less, as Major Wilson
proceeds to show, in ratio to population
than the country used to maintain, and
this ha thinks to be a mistake. Esti
mating the population at 70.000.000 in
18S5. he finds the ratio of regular soldiers
to be but 898 per million, whereas It was
810 in the year 1800. S3 in the year 1810,
9C5 in 1820, and even in the year 1830,
when the ratio was the lowest In any
census year prior to the civil war, it was
4CS. He would therefore say that a sys
tem of periodical Increase -of the num
ber of soldiers to population Is the best
solution of the present question, and he
suggests a maintenance of ,500 to 1,000,
0OC of population as the "proper ratio.
He would have the size of the array re
adjusted according to that ratio at ev
ery census, and also, according to a
probable estimate of population, half
way between each two censuses.
These recommendations, it will be
perceived, are directly in line with those
advocated by General Miles in his last
report. General Miles proposed that the
army have a minimum strength of one
soldier to every ,000 people and a maxi
mum strength of ono soldier to every
1,000. This would give an army between
35,000 and 70,000 men, the increase and
decrease within those limits to be deter
mined by the n.'cda of the time.

ANTHRACITE'S FUTURE.
From tha Bond Record.
The present annual capacity of the an
thracite region, working SO) dsys per
year, Is about 07,000,000 tons, while tho mar
ket will take but 46,000,000, or capacity, 21,-
000,030 tons ahead of annual consump
tion, a situation of affairs which requires
shrewd and careful management to main
tain a profitable business. How long this
condition can endure depends on the mar
ket and tho manner in which the indus
try is handled by those In control. With
the present rate of Increase of annual con
sumption It ought not to continue many
ytarj, for the Wyoming and Lehigh re
gions, which together yield about 70 pit
cent, of the annual tonnage, stem to be
nearlng their maximum output (the Hazls-
ton dlatrict of the Lehigh region having
probably already reached this point). And

dent to the most careless Investor that a
policy, or rather the lack of policy, which,
in face of existing conditions as to supply

market with coal at disastrously low
prices and the accumulating of a large
stock of coal, with advance sale on such
a ruinous basis as to require the better
