Since, McKlnley has won anyhow,
why should uny McKlnley man object
to the lusting by the Pennsylvania dele,
gat Ion of a complimentary vote for
Quay?
Mr. Cleveland's Latest.
It remains to be seen whether Mr.
Cleveland's latest cull to his party to
support the gold standard will be heed
ed. While the chances are that It will
not, the fact should not be forgotten
that the Democracy Is accustomed to
execute, at times, sudden and unex
pected Bomersaults. Mr. Cleveland
forced it to follow his leadership In 1887,
when he declared with dramatic bold
ness for free trade; he attain whipped it
into line during his fight for the repeal
of the Sherman silver purchase clause,
and when we consider the tremendous
wealth which is available for persua
sive use in gold's behalf In his present
tussle with It, it would really not be
strange If he were to become the mas
ter a third time within the decade.
On the face of It, the Democracy
ought this year to take the field in be
half of silver. The Republicans have
thrown down a challenge by declaring
for gold. A large percentage of the
membership of the Democratic party
unmistakably believes In free colnag-e.
The issue has assumed a phase which
calls loudly for a popular decision. For
the Democrats to re-echo the St. Louis
platform would be to perform a super
fluous labor, for which the present con
ditions of politics hold out no possible
promise of reward. If there is any pres
tige connected with an unequivocal and
outspoken pronouncement for the gold
standard, the Republicans, by reason
of the priority of their convention, have
already pre-empted that. Unltss, there
fore, the Democratic party wishes to
champion the cause of sliver, It might
.better make no nomination, but pass
icsuiuuunn inuorsing me canuiuaius
und the platform chosen at St. Louis.
It Is to be regretted that Mr. Cleve
land CJi not extend his communication
sulticiontly to include viggestlous rela
tfve to vther' issues which his party
might in his Judgment push forward in
ordet to make a promising line of battle
against the Republicans. Hn says the
free silver cry will not win this year
and we guess that on that point he Is
a good prophet. But what cry will en
able the Democracy to win? Surely,
not free trade. That wns tried two
years ago. Surely not the flng-lower-lng,
tyranny-loving forslgn policy pur
sued by Mr. Cleveland's secretaries of
state, tior the scheme of raising public
revenue by selling bonds at a large dis
count to a favorite syndicate. Neither
of these Ideas would sweep the country
away from McKlnley. If the sliver
issue holds out to the Democratic party
no promise of success, what issue does?
Mr. Cleveland owes it to the publlo
to be more specific.
Just as soon as the cruel war Is over
at St. Louis, mutual friends of Magee,
Martin and Quay should proceed to get
these good Republicans together.
Keeping Quiet.
The esteemed Wilkes-Barre Record
mistakes the meaning of a recent .para
graph on this page if It thinks that The
Tribune desired to sneer at Hon. Henry
W. Palmer's "purity platform." If
there was any flippancy In our state
ment that that platform had failed to
make much ado, It was aimed, not at Mr.
Palmer, for whose ability and experi
ence this journal has the utmost respect,
nor at his platform, which Is the plat
form of political honesty, but at the
state of publlo opinion which seems to
be quite content to tolerate the award
ing ot political honors to the highest
bidders.
We are truly glad to learn from the
Record that the Republicans of Lucerne
"are reaching out for higher standards"
and that "heelers and boodlers who have
during the past few years been all-potent
In the primaries are being relegated
to the rear and better men pushed- to
the front." We sincerely trust that the
good work may continue. The Tribune
will gladly pledge Itself to do all In Its
power to bring about the supremacy of
brains and character over mere manipu
lation In polities. But we still think we
were within the limits of truth In doubt
Ins the existence of a furore In Luserne
county In behalf of the higher congress
ional standard. If there Is such a fu
rore It is keeping strangely quiet.
Mark Hanna; was a strong man during
the preliminary stages of the McKlnley
fight, but by his conduct In the trying
hour of victory be has proved himself
one man In a million. Who Is there who
would not hurrah for Hanna?
The Defection of Telljr.
Thoughtless persons may And food for
merriment In the withdrawal from the
Republican party of a man like Henry
M. Telkr, but to other It will be an
occasion tor regret. During the twenty
years that Mr. Teller has been In public
life seventeen years as a member of the
I'nltfd States senate and three years as
secretary cf Interior he has displayed
marked ability, a high sense of duty and
scrupulous honesty. Whatever may be
thought of his present opinions in rela
tion to the currency issue. It cannot be
denied that he la acting conscientiously
and with something of the bravery
which in other days sent men for opin
ion's sake without flinching to' the
stake. That there are tricksters and
demagogues who cry for free silver
coinage because they see In it a chance
to win -temporary personal prominence
does not obscure the fact that In the
person of Henry M. Teller that economic
delusion has a champion who imparts
to it Bomethlng of his own dignity. He
at least means what he says means It
so firmly that rather than seem to
swallow his convictions he is ready to
leav e lilrt party and brave all the
chances that such a course may retire
him to private life.
In this age of what Mr. Bayard would
call political "jobbers and chafferero"
men of this caliber are none too numer
ous. Though we may differ radically
from their belief, we would, neverthe
less respect their candor, their sincerity
and their courage. Mr. Teller does not
preach one thing and practice another.
He does not eat his words. He preftrs
to be alone with his own conscience up
proving him rather than to be with the
multitude when his judgment tells him
it is wrong. It is possible that his with
drawal from the party, together with
his small coterie of associates, will work
no serious damage to Republican pros
pects. The probabilities are that their
bolt will not amount to much, except
within a limited western area. The hU
tory of bolts offers small encourage
ment to their repetition; and this year
in particular It seems likely that for
every vote lost to the Republican ticket
because of the gold plank In the St
Louis platform, two votes will be won
from the Democrats.
Yet at the same time we are sorry to
lose Teller, for we believe him to be
that noblest of God's creatures, an hon
est man; and we suggest that the door
be not permanently closed against his
return.
There is one thing in favor of the St.
Louis Idea of sound money. It will
mean sufficient protection to turn tho
trade balance In our favor and thereby
cause our stock of gold to increase.
True Philanthropy.
One of the criticisms which have been
advanced against the protective theory
is that by placing stress upon Industrial
achievements it tends to retard educa
tion and culture. Americans have been
lampooned by many free traders as
mere money-makers because they have
insisted that the safest foundation for
the superstructural graces of charac
ter and manners is the ability to earn
an independent livelihood and contri
bute to the common fund of business
activities.
Governor Llppltt, of Rhode Island, In
a recent address upon "The Influence
of Manufactures on Wealth and Popu
lar Intelligence," has made an effective
reply to this particular criticism. We
have not seen the complete text of his
address, but according to a synopsis
printed In the Washington Post he ad
vances in his first sentence the proposi
tion that "every manufacturing estab
lishment Is a college." There is, he as
serts, no way in which a man can ac
quire the special education fitting him
for certain lines of usefulness, so well
as In a mill or shop. And he submits
that It Is through the knowledge and
skill thus acquired, by the minds thus
developed, and the faculties thus drilled
and refined, that have come the great
discoveries und inventions which have
done most for the physical and moral
welfare of the peoples of the earth.
In South America, Gov. Llppltt points
out, there Is not a single manufacturing
nation. Africa Is similarly situated. In
Asia tho same rule obtains, except In
those portions of that vast continent
that have come under control of Eur
opean nations. He mentions Japan as
a possible exception, because, side by
side with the victories that she has
gained over her ancient enemy, China,
come accounts of her successes in
manufacturing. The manufacturing
continent of the world is, of course,
Europe. Measure the European na
tions by manufactures and the order is
England, Prance, Germany, Russia,
Italy, Spain. That the Importance of
nations is Indicated by manufactures is
illustrated by a comparison of the
wealth of these countries, which Gover
nor Llppltt gives as follows:
United Kingdom 146.7411.000,000
France 41,843,000,000
Germany 31,320,000,000
Russia 24,701,01X1,000
Italy 14,412,000,000
Spain 12,244,000,000
But manufacturing supremacy, in the
governor's opinion, Indicates more than
Wealth. It Is also a measure of Intelli
gence. He shows that In the United
Klnerdoirv France and Germany the
number of people la a hundred able to
write varies from eighty-five to ninety
six. In Russia, Italy and Spain the num
ber falls to from fifteen to forty-sevn.
In our country it Is a well known fact
that there are no active centers of cul
ture which are not at the same time
active centers of Industry. The mill,
the mine and the factory necessarily
precede the high school, the academy
and the college. Without the one to
give support to (he population the
other must languish.
"It Is," says the Post, "an fncontro-vei-tlbl?
fact that the policy which has
developed and fostered manufactures In
the United States the establishment
and maintenance of the patent st'stem
and protective duties has been as con
ducive to intellectual and moral as to
material growth. The periods ot our
greatest progress In education and
rclence. the periods when the churches
and the schools have enjuyed th.lr high
est prupcrity, have been coincident
with the years and decadas of greatest
udvanceir.?nt In manufactures." The
protectionist who finds work for idle
men and wagts for those in want is the
true philanthropist.
What Is needed after the conventions
are over is a good summer's vacation
and then a presidential campaign which
shall be short, sharp and decisive.

About midnight on .Monday the writer

had settled around her eyes, aim in re

Her face was youthful, yet atted. The
stage paint still clung to her eyelids and
brows. Her voice was sweet and low and
educated In accent, but with a minor tons
of melancholy. Clowned and gloved us
befitted her, she would have been an arm

looked at her, but with whispered com

the stage singing ballads. Now, weary,
nervous, Jailed, her hands and Hps tremb
ling, the life gone out of her, she had en
tered the Palm garden with an actor to
forget her eare. There was some moisture
In her eyes and unusual pathos in her
voice. "My husband died In Paris today,"
said she simply, "my first husband, Arthur
Padelford," Then wearily, nervously, ap
parently unconscious of tho curious eye
that followed them the actor aim mo

called for drinks. That was.Bettlna Ger
ard. Eight years ago Bhc was the belle ot
fashionable society In Washington, the
petted daughter of General Ordway, the
bride of wealthy Arthur Padelford. Her
honeymoon was spent In a tour of Europe
and a duke of the ancient nobility stood
godfather for her child. After her return
to this country the bride still maintained
her eminence as a famous beauty in fash
ionable circles and our most select famil
ies were glad to number among their
guests the lovely Mrs. Padelford. Then
scandal's busy tongue began wanning. Ar.
thur Padelford secured a divorce and paid
92l0o0 to his wife for a quit claim on ev
erything her married name, her child
and her dower right in his estate. Within
a period of about live years Bettina Ger
ard has adventured all that a woman
could to win success on the stage. Shi
has given up her social position, her fam
ily, her husband, her child, her fortune,
her youth, her beauty, her accustomed lux-ury-for
what? To paint her face and
sing ballads on a vaudeville stase. Her
husband left nn estate worth $400,000 to
her child and hfc second wife. Yesterday
his first wife was one of the attractions of
a roof garden. Tomorrow where?

Indeed, Is there any possibility of one pos

Bernhardt'a father was a faggot gatherer

Jewess was beaten and starved the first
