"If I have been associated with any
legislation that hus given to a single
American worklngmnn a day's work at
American wages, thut Is honor enough
for me, What we want In this country
is a policy that will give to every Ameri
can worklngman, American' wages; a
policy that will put enough money Into
the treasury of the United States to
run the government; a policy that will
bring back to us that period of pros
perity and of plenty that we enjoyed
for more than thirty years." McKinley,
at Canton.
The Meaning of It.
One of tho most eloquent and Intelli
gent comments that we have seen upon
the St. T.ouls nomination was made by
the Buffalo Enquirer, a journal former
ly Democratic. It Is bo fair, apt and
true that we niako no npology for re
producing U herewith, adding as wo do
no, a word of credit to Its brilliant au
thor, Editor Joseph O'Connor:
"The best thing about the nomination
f Mr. McKinley " is that it comes
.tralght from tho people. His strength
A the convention wua overwhelming;
and yet none of tho great parly mun
ngers of the country was in his favor.
Each had a, candidate of his own, and
all were ready to combine against tno
people's choice. His success looks like
a return to genuine government of the
people, for tho people, by the people.
"There la little doubt that Mr. McKin
ley will be elected; and his election has
In It tho promise of much good. It
means industrial peace, for it may bo
regarded as the re-establlshment of the
protective, system. Free Trade is the
Ideal condition; Protection Is tho work
ing expedient of nations. The Demo
crats had the opportunity and assumed
the duty of establishing the Free Trade
cyttem.'lackcd the courage to adopt that
policy, and surrendered to Protection.
The election of McKinley accepts tho
surrender and makes It unconditional.
"It means financial peace, for It will
be considered the establishment of our
money system, as It is, In all its essen
tial features. The attempt of Bilver
miners and the debtor class of the South
and West to secure the free coinage of
liver, except on a ratio established by
International agreement, will be defeat
ed; and the attempt of the money-lending
class of the great cities of this coun
try and Europe to destroy all our legal
tenders save gold and supply elastic,
bank currency, based on corporate debts
for tho borrower, the laborer and the
farmer, will be foiled. , We shall keep
our gold, sliver and paper money, each
with Its debt-paying quality, serving, as
a security against any attempt to corner
the other. There will be revenue enough
raised to meet the tspendlturw of the
government and restore our credit, or
rather remove the false pretense that
our credit ever was impaired.
"It means International peace, as it
will be interpreted as the return to a
settled policy, as the guide in dealing
with our neighbors, instead of the va
garies of an individual, who has noth
ing strong about him but his preju
dices. There will be no truckling un
duly to one Nation or bullying another;
and no message threatening war for the
sake of personal and party succsts. It
means internal peace for it will be
taken as the pledge of prosperous times,
and prosperity tends to harmony. There
will be no proclamation declaring sev
eral states of the Union In Insurrection
and rebellion. It mears morel peace,
for there will lie a calm, honest, cheerful
mun at the head of affairs. The con
tinuous complaining, f-coldlnff. whinlns,
and calamlty-howlir.fT that lias b:en
kept tip for more than three yenrs rrom
the AVhit3 Mouse and the government
departments will cease. Tho try of the
j egotist, not able to have his own way
and not magnanimous enough to yield
to the inevitable In silence, will be heard
no more in the land. The Nation will
Eland up erect, elate and conf dent vla of
old; mid refuse t crawl In the dust as
! the supr'Iant of foreign bankers.
"As to the character of the man whese
triumph represents these thins we
have spoken fully heretofore. Tilers is
not the shndow of a BUFpieion or the
stain of a fault on his reputation. lie
is simple, able, pure, sincere and seri
ous." Garret A. llobnrt is not only a wheel
man himself but he Is also the Idol of
wheelmen. The excellent macadamized
rouds of New Jersey are largely his
handiwork since it was due to his In
defatisable championship while a mom
bcr of the state senute that they wore
built. Give us the wheelmen of the
country and the silver vote can go
whither it listeth.
Interesting Luzerne Politics.
The campaign for the Republican con
gressional nomination In Luzerne coun
ty precipitated by Representative
Lelsenrlng's recent announcement that
he would not seek a renomlnutlon is be
coming Interesting. The convention will
be held In Wilkes-Uarre one week from
tomorrow, and If the present tension of
feeling shall not In the meantime bo re
lieved, that convention will probably be
even more spirited than was the con
vention of two years ago.
The tlrst candidate to make formal
announcement of his willingness to ac
cept the nomination was ex-Scnator
Morgan B. Williams, whose defeat by
Mr. Lelsenrlng two years ago gave
him a considerable claim upon the suc
cession. Mr. Williams did not muke
this announcement of his own volition;
he made It In response to repeated calls
therefor from friends and sympathizers.
One of tho first to urge him to enter the
field was the Wilkes-liarre Record, a
journal which he had often befriended
and which, two years ago, had been his
valiant supporter. The announcement
of Mr. Williams' candidacy was fol
lowed by the announcement of the can
dlducics of Alvun Marklu of Hazleton
and Charles D. Foster of Wllkes-Harre.
We see no evidence, however, that Mr.
Markle is figuring largely in the situa
tion.
Then, quite dramatically, ex-Attorney
(funeral Palmer issupd his celebrated
proclamation, in which, he offered him
self as the candidate of those who do
not believe in the Improper use of money
In politics. Immediately the Wilkes-
Barre Record, which had been partly
Instrumental In bringing ex-Senator
Williams candidacy out, deserted to
General Palmer and began to demand,
In emphatic double-leaded editorials,
that Messrs. Williams and Foster retire
so that General Palmer might have
practically a free pathway to the notnl
nation. The natural Interpretation put
upon this action of the Record by the
public was that It deemed Messrs. Wil
liams and Foster unlit to represent tho
district in congress. The Dembcratlo
press went even further and, doubtless
upon the strength of the Record's ac
tion, printed articles reflecting upon ex
Seivitor Williams' character, for which
one Democratic Journalist Is now under
bond to answer a charge of libel.
So far as we are informed, Mr. Pal
mer intended no personal reference In
his anti-corruption proclamation to
either Mr. Williams or Mr. Foster. At
the time of Its appearance wo did not
Interpret it as Indicating n, re
flection upon, either of these gen
tlemen, but merely as a means
of calling public attention to one
of the notorious evils of our time,
namely, tho improper use of money
among delegates. With that Idea we
gave It our approval, an approval
which on Impersonal lines It thoroughly
deserves. But the fact that the Wilkes
liarre Record's course and tho course
of one or two other newspapers In Lu
jierne have made Mr. Palmer's platform
appear as an Indictment of his compe
titors for tho nomination hosjhad tht
not unnatural effect to fill with lndlgna.
tion the many friends of these gentle,
men, and they announce that they pro.
pose to stay in the fight, a conclusion
for which they can hardly he blamed.
When it is remembered how eneriret
lcally the Record fought for ex-Senator
Williams two years ago, and how active
It was only a few weeks ago in urging
Mr. Williams to run, It is not surprising
that the friends of the latter are dls
pleased at the Record's significant de
sertion. Under these circumstances it
Is obvious that Mr. Williams cannot
with propriety withdraw; he mUBt now
face the music to the end of the concert
and refer to the eonventlon Itself the
question whether or not he is fit to rep
resent Luierne county In the national
congress.1 - Consequently, unless the
situation shall In the meantime he elm,
plified. next week's gathering of tie Z.U-
zerno delegates will be likely to be
fraught with Interesting possibilities.
The platform adopted by the Vermont
Republicans last week puts much In lit
tle. "Our watchword." it says, "shall
be an honest dollar the world over, pro
tection to American labor and Indus
tries, and sufficient revenue to main
tain tha government without further
Increasing its debts."
Mark Henna's election as national
chairman comes as a reward of already
demonstrated merit.
Another country wherein McKinley
will be unpopular Is Spain.
SENATOR QUAY'S CANDIDACY.
Iloustis, In Philadelphia Inquirer.
Nuw that the convention Is over, pos-
flldy Senator Quay will pardon me It I
tell a story or two. The country was more
than interested several weeks ao, when
the announcement was made by the au
thority of Senator Quay that he would
permit his name to be used us a candidate
fjr the presidential nomination. Only a
few days previous he hat told mo mat
the presidency waa the last thing desired
by him. lie haid that he could not tako
the otlhe If given him, for It would kill
him. lint he changed his mind. In Ills
library in Washington he told mu how
that clums'e had been brought abuut. He
had been Importuned by several of his
filctnls on the national committee to he
enine a candidate, and that ho had finally
consented.
"Then you aro in earnest," I said.
"I certainly am," was the reply. "'I
don't believe that I can be nominated.
but. my friends say that 1 can be, and I
have told them to go uhead."
II II il
Of course, this means first of all a
combination against McKinley," I sug
gested. Well, now, do you know that I do not
understand this opposition to McKin
ley. He and 1 ha?e been the best of
friends. I have never been against Mm,
but my friends tell me thut I can be nom
inat' d, und after all, the presidency would
round out a public man's career, wouldn't
It V
As he spoke, the recollection came that
only the summer before, Just hi he wai
plunging into that remarkable compate.ii
for the chairmanship of the state com
mittee, not because he desired the oftice,
he had declared that McKinley was the
strongest candidate. And the recollec
tion also came of a private conversation
held month! before that, when he said
that In his opinion McKinley would best
suit the Republicans of Pennsylvania.
"Do you know," he said, and his eyes
twinkled as he recalled the Incident, "the
people have got un idea that they wunt J.
protective tariff. They connect MeKin
ley's name with the tariff. After the Har
rison campaign, In l&KS, there was a con
test for the speakership. Both Reed and
McKinley wanted It. 1 went to McKinley
myself and said to him that the combi
nation was on Reed, 'but,' I said, 'you will
be chairman of the ways and means com
mittee, und that committee will be charged
with the work of drafting a tarltf bill.
You will give your name to It. Do you
know what that means? It will make o i
president of the United States," and the
senator hesitated and laughed in his pleas
ant way as he added: "And I came
mighty neur being a prophet without
knowing it, didn't I?" He might have
said, too, thut he had urged the same prop
osition upon Reed.
II II II
There was a time when Quay became
sanguine that ho might be nominated.
In the midst of the campaign he attend
ed a conference held in New York. Thero
was a collection of national leaders thero,
a collection that In an ordinary year would
have proved invincible. Quay did not tell
mo this story, but one of his close friends
who was in the conference did. He said
that it was ugreed there that Quay was
tho most likely candidate to center upon
when the complimentary votes had been
worked off for the field aspirants. It was
argued that If McKinley was not nomi
nated at once, the nomination was lost
to hint. After that It would be a mere
mntter of the Held combining. Had not
tho tariff played havoc with all calcula
tions It Is quite likely that Matthew Stan
ley Quay would today be the Republican
nominee of the convention Instead of Will
lam McKinley. He had picked up a
goodly number of delegates that few knew
anything about. There were any number
of delegates ready to go to him upon
an early ballot. With nearly all of the
great leaders back of him, the field would
huve made a tjaliant attempt to center
upon him, and knowing theBe facts who
can blame him for making a light for him
self? Uut Quay, as the campaign prog
ressed, saw that he had Indeed been a
prophet without knowing it when he told
McKinley that the tariff bill would make
hltn president, lie was willing to be a
candidate In good faith so long as his
prospects were good, but he did not pro.
pose to make a bitter light after the sen
timent of the people had been ascertained.
II II il
The day previous to his now famous
visit to MeKlnley at Canton he talked
with me very freely at the eapltol in
.'Washington. I tasked him If he had
given up tho fisht.
"Did you ever see an ox team run away?"
ho usked by way of an answer. "It yoa
have you know how they go. They get
their heads down and their horns up. ind
they bolt over stones and logs and ditches
and you have got to get out of tho way.
There Is no stopping them. Well, Mc
Kinley is bolting just like an ox team; he
has got his head down and his horns up,
and he Is running away with precedents
anil everything. He has got away with
ne nnd the rest. He will be nominated,
and I believe on the first ballot. You can
not slop him."
Tin; senator had got his bearings and
he made up his mind that so far as ho
was concerned the people should have
their way. It was the tariff that nomi
nated McKinley. Had he been speaker In
stead of Reed, and had Reed been chair
man of the ways and means committee in
stead of McKinley and given his name to
the tariff bill In ISM, Reed would havo
been nominated Instead of McKinley.
Sentiment has carried the day and nomi
nated the next president of the Unltel
Stntes. Thus do comparatively small
things lead to greater ones.
!l II II
And yet there Is a political side which
does nrt deal with sentiment, which hnd
It been Involved, might have defeated Mc
Kinley In spite of everything. The true
test of strength came on Wednesday upon
the seating of the delegates whose seats
were disputed. There were 1C3 of them in
all, and fully 125 were seated purely upon
tho whim of the national committee. This
figure I got from a member of tho na
tional committee who sat during the dis
cussion over all of the contests. Tho vote
In tho eonventlon on sustaining the na
tional committee Was Mj& out of a total
of 91(1, of which rfl Is a majority. Now,
suppose tho national committee had de
cided those contests the other way; 123
from 545 leaves 420, a decided minority.
It Is plain, therefore, that the MeKlnley
majority was made up from the contested
sents. Of course, after this test there was
a run to cover and everybody who could
do so got In and when the nomlnalldn came
the MeKlnley majority ran awny up to
tWl'j. But the fact remains thnt had the
national commlttco been "stood up," as
tho boys say, there might have been a
different story to tell. That committee
could have been had very easily and these
contests couJd have been settled the
other way. In fact the commlttoe natur
ally was antl-McKlnley. There were con
ditions. So far as Quay was concerned,
he refused to enter Into them, and whether
McKinley knows It or not he probably
does he owes his nomination In a great
measure to Matthew Stanley Quay, tf
lvanla. ,

The laflseace of Cancer.
The sun entered the sltn of Cancer yes
terday, June 21, and will continue In the
same until July 22. Cancer is Included In
the maternal signs of Zodiac, and all per
sons born between the above dates are
great lovers of home and family. They
are usually Industrious anil economical
and sometimes miserly. They are very
kind, loving and sympathetic and make
good husbands ami wives. Children of
Cancer are very sensitive to physical and
mental conditions of others. Their vital
ity is not great, and thty should never as
sociate with persona who are repulsive to
them, especially when young. 't per
sons born under Caneer the ancient as
trologers speak at follows: "Cancer be
lug naturally cold and moist, doth make
gross the flesh and doth allure and pro
voke to the love and company of women.
Also It cau-icth a good understanding, hu
mility and wisdom, but full of debato, and
for tho most part gaining victory over his
enemies. If he dig for treasure he will be
lucky In finding what he looketh for. It
rauseth them to have smooth skin and
hair, and to be mode.n and faithful und
careful but greedy of meat and drink, yet
acquainted with rich men and fortunate
in husbandry. Girls bom in Cancer it
celiseth them to be fat, nimble and beauti
ful, but soon angry, and soon pleased,
likewise diligent, wise, civil, witty, deceit,
ful and crafty, saying one thing and do
ing another; always careful nnd Indus
trious, but ordained to many dangers."
Notwithstanding their sensitiveness,
children of Cancer are very persistent in
the execution of '.heir plans and it Is dif
ficult for them to work under others. Un
der proper conditio!, persons of thU na
ture develop strong will power, but malea
are apt to be quiet and uncommunicative.
Females, however, arc usually talkative
and often brilliant. Tneir minds are gen
erally mechanical and they can best suc
ceed in manufacturir.K spheres of life,
though women are often successful in lit
cray pursuits.
