Cy tli way. what lias become of t!ie
report cf the Ver.ei.utUn boundary com
mission? No Bolt.
Hie news which comes from St. Louis
wlih referciicti to the state of ws'.ui;i
Iltpublkun opinion re-:diiu: ti:
money plunk is i easjvring Whlli' tin'
west Is stronp.iy for t'ti doub;3 stunUaid
uid strenuously opposed to th-.- e'.iniinu
tion of silver from the stoelt of the
world's primary money, It Is at the eamo
time sound on the even mor-; Important
lrsue of protection, and this viU keep It
loyal to the Republican part f.
The question Is wholly one of expe
diency. While Republicans may dif
fer In opinion as to whether bimetallism
Is practicable without an International
agreement, there is no such division of
opinion as to the folly of free trade, the
falsity of Democratic prou Ucs and the
Inefficiency of the Democratic party us
r.n administrative force. Consequently,
even though the Demorvatlc nutional
convention should declare for fre? 01: 1
unlimited coinage at the iittlo ot 13 to 1,
such a declaration would fiol I out no
serious Invitation to any thoitp.htf ul re
publican friend of silver O lKrM his
own party and go over to an organisa
tion whoEe record shows ihtt It is not
to be trusted on any platform.
In this connection It may not no ddiIm
to recall the fact that four years ago,
after adopting a platform de;iailngr
protection unconstitutional and fraudu
lent, the Democratic party Immediately
proceeded to enact such a varle?ated
mixture of unconstitutionality and
fraud that its own president had to de
nounce the compound a'e a measure of
"perlldy and dishonor." It Is fair to In
fer .from, this recent evidence of the
sanctity of Democratic platform plodiies
that if that party should declare in na
tional convention for free silver and win
next fall on that issue It would, by the
time it had reached office, proceed to
t'nact legislation three-fourths favor
able to the gold standard.
The real hope of blmetalllsts Is co
incident with the success of Republi
canism In the approaching campaign.
Whatever In the past has been done for
silver has been done for it by the lie
publican party. Whatever can saMy
be done for It in the future will be lone
tor It by that party, for the simple rea
son that that party, alone among the
political organizations of our day, is
capable of successfully administering
this government. The i!metril!!st who
goes ovpr to the enemy simply s.cri:l'"-'S
his vet? and his Influence. Therefore, it
Is well that the random talk of a possi
ble bolt nt St. Louis should have begun
to putsk'e in thrs faca of the solemn
meaning cf the assemblage which Is
soon to gather in that city.
Acoonllnq to Spanish advices from
Havana, the Spanish merchants of
Mexico. Vruguny and Argentine pro
pose to boycott American goods In re
taliation for America's uympathy for
Cuba. It will take a good deal of that
sort of thing to change American opin
ion. Hastings for Vice-President.
The authoritative announcement by
Joseph H. Mnnley that Hon. Thomas
B. Reed will under no circumstances ac
rept the nomination of his party for the
lce-presldency must be believed. Sim
ilar statements have been made before,
under circumstances which left room for
'nope that Mr. Reed might be Induced
by the counsel of his friends to recon
sider; but this latest declaration, coup
led as It Is with the simultaneous with
drawal ot Mr. Reed's name from the
list of candidates for the presidency,
offers no such encouragement, and self
respect would effectually debar the ma
jority party of this nation from seeking
to coax any ot its leaders, whatever his
dimensions, Into acceptance of an honor
econd to one only in the civilized world.
In other words, the vice-presidency
Is now open to competition. ' What shall
be done wlth.lt? We'reprlnt on this
page an Interesting column of specula
tion from the pen of Walter Wellman,
on of the shrewdest students of politi
cal movements In the ranks of contem
porary American Journalism. It will
p observed that he not only msntlona
am mm wjj,pltkmmmim mt
with favorable comment the probability
that the name ot Governor Hastings
will be presented at St. Louis as Penn
sylvania's choice for second place, but
also assumes with considerable liberty
of detail to sketch the motives which
actuate such a candidacy. To what ex
tent he differentiates fancy from fact
we, of course, do not know; we only
know that If Governor Hastings shall
consent to the use of his name in con
nection with the indicated honor. It will
be upon none but honorable terms and
will eomn:and the cordial support of tf.o
united Keystone delegation.
And why should not this banner Re
publican state give to the Republican
rarty in this year of Republican revival
one cf the two bearers of the party's
rational standard? The objection tnat
General Ilaninga' miration would
put the two nominees in adjoining state3
morcly c giiosrarhlcTl quibble. It
sinks Into lrsirrnlfi;ar.ce compared with
the fact that sines protection Is to- te
the watchword of the coming campaign,
not even Ohio has a better right to rep
resentation on the rational ticket than
i.ss thU foremost, this incomparable in
dustrial commonwealth. With the ts
ceptlon of Speaker R?ed, there Is no
rame in the eligible list which wouid
stand more logically as the complement
to that of William McKinlcy and bring
to the ticket a larger re-lnforcomcnt of
ptrsonr.l vitality and popularity than
the rame of Daniel Hartrrun Hastings.
Just as he was eight years ago tiie
dominant figure o? the Chicago conven
tion, so he would be, as the nominee
for vic-rresldutit, the central person
ality in the active campaign work; tlr
!C3S. eloquent, a born leader amongst a
party of giants.
With Reed out, the logical companion
of the former governor of Ohio Is the
present stalwart governor of Pennsylvania.
Joseph Chamberlain tells the British
chambers of commerce what William
McKInley has been telling Americans
for some years pa3t, that while free
trade is till right inside rational bcun
rfarles, It Is a poor rulo to maintain at
tho custom house. England U evi
dently making the first strategic moves
toward a return to protection.
An Interesting Suggestion.
Attention Is called to the letter. In
another column, of a prominent profes
sional man of this city to Secretary
Atherton of the board of trade suggest
ing that since the court house square
seems destined at no distant day to be
the business center of the city and the
terminal block of the street railway
lines ot the Lackawanna valley, the four
streets which bound It ought ' to ba
widened, with a view to the adequate
accommodation of a largely Increased
ultimate volume of travel.
The gentleman In question suggests
as the only way by which this can be
done that the county permit the re
moval of the flagging on all sides of the
square to within the present line of
trees and then concede to the city the
right to set the curb back to the pres
ent lawn line outside the tree line. This,
he points out, would widen by from 15
to 18 feet the four streets which bound
the square, and render feasible the oc
cupancy of any or all of theso streets
by double street railway tracks with
out Interfering with tho regular traffic
of the streets.
We do not know what legal obstacles
might arise In the way of the adoption
of this suggestion, but from a common
sense standpoint the suggestion seems
admirable.
The Tribune gratefully acknowledges
the receipt, through the courtesy of Rev.
Edwin B. Olmstead, of a copy of the
official minutes of the forty-fifth ses
sion of the Wyoming conference, held
recently at Binghamton.
Cleveland anJ Mckinley.
A Washington dispatch to the New
York World reports what is said to have
been a convocation had by Representa
tive Milllken of Maine with President
Cleveland, in the course of wliloh the
latter Is credited with theso words: "I
suppose your candidate la already se-lt-cted,
but I am surprised at the choice
the Republicans have made. In my
opinion Speaker Reed is the strongest
ur.d brainiest man In your party. It
appears to me unfortunate that MeKin
lty should have obtained the nomina
tion, under the circumstances which
Ecomed to have controlled his selection.
He will find this office no place for a
mortgaged man."
The fact that our onty authority for
such a report is tho New York World
Justifies us In prefixing to any comment
which the quotation might suggest the
acknowledgment that we do not believe
the president ever said such a thing
Of course, if he did say either that or its
substantial equivalent, he disclosed the
Instincts of a boor. The reference to
Major McKInley's business misfortune
and to the generous aid which rendered
It possible, for him to continue In the
public service would come In bad taste
from any man of standing In the United
States, least of all from a man who en
tered the presidential office a poor man
and will leave It next March, after eight
years of occupancy at a total salary of
i 400,000, reputed to be several times a
millionaire.
Yet it Is a fact that nearly all. our
presidents have been "mortgaged" men.
We do not recall at this time a single
one of them In recent years, unless It be
Lincoln, who did not enter the white
house under some uneasy sense of obli
gation to what are colloquially called
tho party bosses, or some of them.
William McKInley will enter it one year
hence without a debt to a living soul
save the decent debt of appreciation
owed to evinced friendship, and with a
commission bearing no signature save
that of the plain people!
It ii perfectly natural for Mr, Cleve-,
land to prefer Mr. Reed to Major Mc
KInley. Reed, like himself. Is robust,
headstrong and Inclined toward the dic
tatorial. Major McKInley does not set
himself above the common level of his
countrymen, docs not assume to be
greater than his party or better than
his constituents, and will net take an
oath of allegiance to the constitution
only to begin. Immediately afterward,
a campaign of aggressive warfare on
that Instrument by the endeavor to
subordinate the legisletive to the execu
tive department.
CeUer Shows Demanded.
It is the unanimous opinion of theat
rical managers that the season Just
ended bus been one of the worst in re
cent yeais. From a. niauagciial stand
point a bad season is a setso.i in which
there Is liitlo if any pro.U. Reports
from the principal a'.r.usvniotit ccnieis
show that the season cf was a
season of srr.a'.i p:otlts and ct'ten cf
positive lctscs. It 'is estimated that less
than 20 per cent, oi the attractions on
the road last winter ended their tours
with a margin to the gcod.
The rr.r.nager3 are by no meana agreed
r.s to tha cause of this slump. Some
ascribe it to ths bicycle; others to the
formation cf theatrical trusts, where
by the smaller organizations are frozsn
out of the best theaters. Of course, the
general fact thct times were hard and
that money was scarce Is not over
looliJ. Yet fclnsular'.y enough, not one
of the numerous managers who have
voiced their grievances upon this sub
ject has thought of the circumstance
that possibly some part of the unsatis
factory character of the season's busi
ness has been due to the want of man
agerial tact in supplying the amusement-loving
public with clean and in
teresting plays well acted by men and
women of Intelligence. If one will men
tally review the Sanson's theatrical of
ferings one will readily concur with us
In tho opinion that as a whole they
were distinctly inferior. The craso for
vaudeville has all but sacrificed the
serious drama and even tho vaudeville
offerings of lSDI-O wore an a ml what
the gallery boy would call "snide." If
the public failed to grow enthusiastic
over such a programme Is It primarily
the public's fault?
There is a forward movement in the
atricals as well as in other directions.
People are learning to demand a better
quality of performances.Just as they de
mand better books and better news
papers. When the managers catch
more accurately the step of this march
forward they will have smaller reason
to berate the public for its unwilling
ness to All their coffers.
The Chicago Times-Herald points to
England's growth In wealth as a dem
onstration of the wholesomcness of tne
gold standard. Does our Chicago con
temporary wish to suggest that the
United States ought to Imitate Eng
land? If so, It should also advocate free
trade.
THE VICE-PRESIDENCY.
Walter Wellman telegraphs from St.
Louis to the Chicago Times-Horald as
follows: ."Word comes from Washington
that Senator Quay will make a gallant ef fort
to secure the nomination cf Governor
Hastings of Pennsylvania for the 'vice
presidency. The plan la to have Mr. Hast
ings make the speech placing Senator
Quay's name before the convention. This
Will be done more for the governor's bene
fit than for Mr. Quay's. Xo ono expco'.s
any votes to be cast for tho senator, as It
is understood that when Pennsyl
vania is reached In the roll call
Quay will himself rise on tho floor
he Is one of tho district deleja:e3
and enst the vote of the Keystone
state for Major McKInley. It is also ex.
pected this will be the signal for a great
demonstration In tho convention, In which
Messrs. Quay and Hastings will shars the
honors, and that the feeling engendered
by this coup will help the chance3 of Gov
ernor Has tints for the second place on
the McKinlcy ticket.
' !! I! !!
"The Pennsylvania governor Is likely to
help his own cause when he takes ths plat
form to place Senator Quay In nomina
tion. A giant in frame, he has a soldierly
bearing nr.d a voice that is as magnetic us
it Is far-reachlns. Xo ore will have any
difficulty In hearlrg wiiat ho has to say.
His tremendous voice will penetrate to the
uttermost parts of the great hall. When
he sits down the delegates will know thp.t
a man of full stnturs and of splendid
mental equipment has been speaking to
them. The hero of Johnstown, the big,
commanding fellow who easily made him
self master of that troublous situation, iB
likely to make n good Impression upon the
convention. He lias the advantage that
it is hi3 duty to present a candidat? who
is not now in earnest. Xo fine considera

ing the praises of Speaker P.eed, of Sena
tor A!ll:-ion, of Governor Morton, and of
Governor Bradley, B3 well as those of
liajor McKInley and Senator Quay. If ho
makes as much of his opportunity as those
who know him best think ho will, he will
become a marked man !n the convention,
with great possibilities hovering about his
head.
ii !i I!
"In this pretty play for the vice presi
dency is seen the master hand of Mr.
Quay. The Pennsylvania senator is
known as the politician who always
nllithts on his feet. Tnke him up In a bul
looii, tied In a bug, and drop him out. Be.

stack to full on. Atop that stack, smiling
a.nd unhurt, would he be found, winking
and blinking those Meapy-looltlng eyes of
his, which, even In slumber, are kept Jupt
a small way open. Senator Quay, It should
be remembered, Is still engaged In a bitter
struggle for political supremacy In his
state. His famous victory of last summer
was only the beginning of the campaign.
The 'combine,' which had things so nice
ly fixed for dertroying Mr. Quay as the
leader of Pennsylvania Republicanism,
still exists. It is on his trail, and does not
Intend to abandon It till It has hunted the

"Mr. Quay is splendid as a fighter, when
he has to fight, but lie 1 as perfect a dlplo
matlst as the science of politics ever pro.
duced when there 1s any chance to save
trouble by making peace. Tho great Penn
ylvanlan Is looking for re-enforcements.
His one fortress of strength In the state Is
his domination of the legislature. There
are plenty of things which could be put
through this legislature, or which could be
killed before they got there, which would
Inure to Mr. Quay's advantage with pow
ci fill corporations and Individuals, But
the co-operation of tho governor Is neces
rary In n scheme of this sort. Walter
Lyon, the lieutenant governor of Pennsyt
vnnia, Is one of Mr. Quay's closest friends.
Hence Mr. Quay's piny for Mr. Hastings
as vice president. If the big governor can
be sent to Washington as the presiding
officer of the senate Walter Lyon will sign
all the bills which Mr. Quay's legislature
passes. If Mr. Hastings Is not nominated
for vtce president Mr. Quay loses nothing.
He may even win General Hastings to his
side In the battles that are to come.
