What did McKinley say to Hanna?
Why, "thanks," to be sure,
The Paramount Issue.
Although their own convention has
not yet named a presidential candidate,
the Democratic politicians are already
insisting that the tariff shall not be
regarded as an Issue this year. They
loudly assert that the money question
must be pushea to the front; that the
battle shal'. be between the standards;
and that while this battle is being
fought all other considerations must
'retire into the background.
The Democratic press, although di
vided as to the proper money plank to
be adopted at Chicago, is unanimous in
condemning Major McKinley for declin
ing at Democratic behest to abandon
the issue with which his name has
won a world-wide identification, in
order to take up the new Issue of gold
against silver. They Inform him dally
In great emphasis of double leads that
. he Is barking up the wrong tree; that
the tariff question is a back number;
that the American people pay no more
thought to that ancient Issue but are
now to a man Intent upon the study of
the financial problem.
AH this exhuberant and singularly
gratuitous advice from the enemy must
mean something. Evidently they don't
want McKinley to discuss the tariff.
Evidently they want the tariff issue let
alone. This fact, now unmistakable,
affords to Republicans a singularly good
reason why 'they should concentrate
their fire upon the tariff target and not
give the Democratic party a chance to
assume the aggressive. Let It be clearly
put before the puttie that until the
Democrats began their recent flirtation
with free trade, the currency of the
United States was the best in the world,
and there was plenty of It in circulation
In payment of the best wages In the
world. Let It be irmdo known that not
until the Democrats bungllngly dissect
ed tho protective tariff so that not even
enough of it was left to raise requisite
revenue did our currency system give
trouble. Keep the battle on these
grounds and it will end in easy victory.
. Major McKinley In his Canton speech
es Is wisely hewing to the main line.
Demoralization and disaster began
when Protection was assailed. They
reached a climax when Protection was
stricken down. They will be overcome
and prosperity will reassert Itself when
Protection la restored. ,
It Is a good! sign that among the
nominations which ' are being made
,' throughout the country for the next
congress there Is a large representation
of practical business men. It used to
' be thought that the best man to send to
, congress waa some one learned In the
law. Lawyers, therefore, have long pre-
' dominated la that body. But the fact
la at last gaining reaognltion that con
gress should be, flrst of all, a business
like and practical assemblage, and this
recognition is bringing to the fore a
noteworthy number of business men aa
candidates. The next congress In par
ticular will have to deal primarily with
business subjects. The fitness, therfore,
of sending good business men to it la
apparent. -
A Mayfleld subscriber asks us to ex
plain what Is meant by the term "16 to
1." It means that one ounce of gold
shall for coinage purposes be declared
by law to be worth only 16 ounces of
silver, whereas, according to market
quotations. It Is worth 32 ounces of sil
ver. It means an attempt to make
CO cents' worth of silver equal In value
100 cents' worth of gold.
Civil Service Reform.
The progress of civil service reform
has been steady and continuous In this
country. The first legislation In Its be
half was effected In 1858, when congress
passed an act permitting the president
to hold examinations to determine the
fitness of applicants for certain offices.
The next bill was Introduced In 1864 by
Senator Charles Sumner. This was fol
lowed by the Jenks bill In 1865, the
Schurs bill in 18C9 and a bill. Introduced
In 1871, which authorized the president
to prescribe regulations for the admis
sion of persons into the civil service of
the United States and "to employ suit
able persons to conduct such Inquiries."
In December, 18S0, the present law was
proposed by Senator Pendleton in the
form of a bill that failed to be reported
from the committee to which it had been
referred.
Then, on July 2, 1881, Gulteau, a dis
appointed spoilsman, Bhot Garfield, and
In the following December the Pendle
ton bill was re-introduced. It aguin
failed to pass, but was successful at the
following session and became a law
Jan. 4, 1SS3. It provided for the appoint
ment of a commission to classify the
civil service and to throw such offices
as it should agree upon open to thoso
who have satisfactorily passed com
petitive examinations. During Presi
dent Arthur's administration only a few
more than 14,000 places were placed
under the operation of this law. Presi
dent Cleveland during his first adminis
tration added 7,259 places; President
Harrison, 8,690; and Cleveland during
his second term had, up to last May,
added 12,744 places. On the 6th of May
by one order he put 29,399 more places
under the protection of civil service
rules, and later he added several hun
dred other offices. Altogether, about
85,000 of tho 200,000 places In the federal
civil service are now under civil service
rules, the most conspicuous exceptions
being the 70,000 postmastershlps and the
20,000 day laborers' jobs.
Although the minor politicians have
always been opposed to this reform, for
the ample reason that It very mater
ially curtails their opportunity of ex
tracting personal profit out of politics,
the sentiment of thinking people is in
creasingly manifested In Its favor. The
St. Louis convention took due recogni
tion of this fact when it called attention
to the fact that the civil service law
was enacted by a Republican adminis
tration, and pledged Itself to its thor
ough enforcement.
The Philadelphia Record lscertalnlyto
be pitied. It finds very little consolation
In any quarter. It is for the gold stand
ard absolutely and Its party Is abso
lutely against it. It terms the New York
Democratic convention's money plank
a "cowardly . straddle," and Intimates
that much as it detests McKinleylsm
it will support the Republican candi
date if the Chicago platform Bhall de
clare for free sliver. We don't Imagine
that the Republican party is especially
anxious to secure Its co-operation, but
all recruits will be welcome save one. We
don't want the support of Grover Cleve
land. Mr. William Paul, a wealthy leather
manufacturer of Leeds, England, who
Is making a tour of the United States,
informs a Washington Post reporter:
"The common people of this country,
the working class, are in every way su
perior to the working people of Eng
land or of any part of Europe. They
are better dressed, live better, and are
for more intelligent." The Republi
can party, under the leadership of Will
iam McKinley, does not propose that
this superiority shall be sacrificed.
Minister Denby says that In China
"railroads, the electric light, physical
science, a new navy, an Improved army,
a general banking system, a mint, all In
the bud now, will soon be In full flow
er." rhe United States cannot afford to
let Protection slide in the face of the
new menace from the Orient.
The New York World says Hobart ex
pected over a year ago to be nominat
ed for vice-president. Hobart himself
says he did not until the last day of the
convention have hope of success. The
point is not material, but it is well to
expose the World's untrustworthlness
before any serious damage is done.
We will be just to Wilkes-Barre. The
Pittsburg Times did not know what It
was talking about when It sold:
"Wilkes-Barre Is never surprised to
wake up and find In the morning paper
a statement of some more of the town
falling out of the town .boundaries."
It is all well enough for the New York
Democracy to declare for a "tariff for
revenue only;" but their platform
-would have come closer to the facts had
It advocated a tariff for disaster only.
Of course It Is very sad to learn from
the London Standard that Major Mc
Kinley "la neither distinguished, learned
nor wise." But we guess he will have
sense enough to choose aa our next am-
baeaador to England a man who will
not lower his Americanism by trying
to sob It into British favor.
It could have teem wished that the
St. Louis plattorm-makera should have
exhibited a readier recollection of the
admirable public aervloea of Hon. Ben
jamin, HarrlBoc The omission from
their report, until the very last minute,
of all reference to him waa a singular
Instance of forget fulness. '
Out In Harmanvllle. Allegheny coun
ty, a man named Toepfer, returning
from a McKinley celebration, thought
It would be fun to scare bis sleeping
wife by shooting a pistol near h;r head.
He shot the pistol and killed his wife.
The question is, what waa Toepfers po
litics? We do not believe he waa a Re
publican.
The women of Pottsvllle contribute
to the literature of the times an edition
of the Pottsvllle Republican whose
twenty-four well-printed pages betoken
much ability, care, enterprise and pa
tience In their preparation. It la a feat
of which the Schuylkill New Woman
may justly feel proud.
All accounts from Canton agree that
Senator Quay will be the chairman of
the Republican National Executive
committee, the picked body which will
do the real work of the campaign. No
better selection could be made and prob
ably none other one-half so good.
The Salt Lake Tribune suggests that
a war would be "beautiful thing" since
it would "remonetize sliver In less than
four months." Has our Utah contem
porary any preference as to whom it
would fight?
The Republican candidate for gover
nor of Illinois Is described as an illiter
ate and an ex-murderer, and the Dem
ocratic candidate Is a notorious dema
gogue. It looks like a case of Hob
son's choice.
Although our Democratic friends pro
fess to be cocksure of victory it Is no
ticeable that the rush for the Chicago
nomination Is still several points short
of a stampede.
If Mr. Whitney wants to do effective
missionary work for the gold standard
at Chicago he should provide himself
in advance with a liberal supply of
samples.
Mr. Whitney neglects to explain why
the Democrats should me a "me, too"
party.
We fail to observe any telegram of
congratulation from Thomas C. Piatt.
AMERICA FOR AMERICANS.
From the Rochester Post-Express.
The terse phrase, "America for Ameri
cans," is likely to come Into very gen
eral acceptance, as expressive of Republi
can policy. Chauncey M. Depew us.ai
it most happily, in his spech nominat
ing Governor Morton, and other orators
had already employed it. It is seen .n
the press and will be repeated on a
thousand platforms, during the ensuing
campaign. What phrase could be better
or more epigrammatic, as condensing Re
publican doctrine? What phrase can b
more inspiring? The Republican plat
form has many words, all admirably
chosen, as setting forth Republican prin
ciples; but In these three words Is the es
sence of Republicanism that Republican
ism which, in the wider, yet definite, In.
terpretation, embraces protection to
American Industries, the maintenance In
tact of American good faith, the uphold
ing of the American flag, the guarding
of American soil from foreign invasion or
occupation, the Inviolability of the civil
rights of every American citizen.
The phrase lias "its limitation, of
course. It does not mean that the cath
olic invitation and generous welcome, ex
tended, throughout the century of na
tional development, to the refugees from
the tyranny of the old world, to Its thrift
and Intelllsence, shall cease. It does not
stand for the prescriptive spirit of
Know-Not hlnglsm; for it Is to be recog
nized that American civilization is com
posite, and that the strain of various
races mingling In a common current has
made the best citizenship. As It was
once said of the Puritan settlement of
New England, that "God sifted a whole
nation that He might send choice grain
over Into the wilderness," so has Europe
furnished her roblest blood for the
American body politic, and the processes
of assimilation have been salvatory, as
well as stimulative, of the truest national
life; but "America for Americans" also
means that when the Influx from the old
world becomes perilous or poisonous to
that national life. It shall be restrained,
and that welcome ceases when Illiteracy
and pauperism and crime seek to become
incorporate with it. So the Republican
platform says and so the Republican pol
icy will maintain.
"America for Americans" means that
American labor shall be protected against
Injurious foreign competition. It means
that American manufactures shall be fos
tered, that the American artisan shall
receive due reward for the work of his
hands, and that the markets shall re
spond to the products of American farms.
The phrase means that the American pol
icy, which Hamilton inaugurated and
Washington and Clay and Lincoln and
Blaine advocated, shall again be affirmed
In American legislation. It means that
America will take care of Americana, be.
fore she studies the interests of foreign
merchants and manufacturers and na
tions, or announces the reign in commerce
of the brotherhood of man. It means that
charity begins at home. It means that
American furnace fires shall be lighted,
and American eplndles shall whirl, and
American homes abide in comfort, Amer
ican prosperity be ordained, and reci
procity obtain between American peo
ples. It means that every American dollar
shall be as good as gold that there shall
be no lowering of the standards of
American honor. It means honesty and
good faith. It means American man
hood. It means that American sea
coasts shall be defended against hostile
ships, and that the American merchant
marine shall be rehabilitated, so that It
may whiten every ocean, and the Ameri
can flag be seen in every port. It
means also that the doctrine, which an
American president proclaimed over sv
enty years ago, that no European power
should occupy and extend Its dominion
upon American soil, shall be sustained.
It means an American policy, In our for
eign relations, that policy which has
been as consistently sb ignobly nullified
by the present national administration.
It means the development of the Ameri
can nation upon the lines that have been
almost uniformly pursued, since consti
tutional government waa ordained.
Not slnco Sumter was fired upon and
the nation sprang to arms to defend its
being, has the American sentiment been
citizenship of America has felt that its
Is today. The reason for this Is not far
to seek, nor hard to find. It Is because the
citizenship of American Das felt that its
Integrity was assailed by a nerveless for.
sign policy, both in business and In poli
tics, aad by reckless agitation and fanatio
onslaught upon American honor. It fa
because, under such policies aad by such
agitation, the Americas name has Buf
fered, aad distress, disaster, and ruin
have visited American homes. America
for Americans, therefore, la Its highest
slgniaaanee and in Its rurthest outrcaon,
is what the American people demand,
and what they will obtain In the vindica
tion at the polls of Republican principles.
