If the South Is bound to honor the men who led It Into error, why does It select for It finest tributes, the least worthy one in the littt ? Preparing to Ratify. ' There can be no mistaking the sin cerity nnd the enthusiasm of the multi tudes who are visiting Major McKlnley at Canton. Their esteem of the Repub lican nominee is genuine and generous beyond recent parallel la American political history. Their devotion to Re publican principles is unbounded. In the record of post-convention cele brations there is no duplicate of the tribute paid to William McKlnley last Friday by tho women of Canton. It was a tribute spontaneous, unselsh and elo quent beyond power of description a recognition of home life which is abso lutely without spot. Events are fast fulfilling ourpredlctlon that the nominee of the St. Louis convention would de velope Into the most popular candidate for responsible office that ever stood for the suffrage of the American people. It is eminently fitting, therefore, that the Republicans of Scrap.ton, keeping step with the awakened Republicanism of the nation, should prepare to ratify that welcome nomination. The people cf Scranton have seen and heard Mc Klnley. They feel In an unusual sense a personal Interest in his candidacy. They1 will be clad to co-operate In an enthusiastic tribute to one of the best specimens of American statesmanship known to our annals. The kind of a dollar McKlnley wants Is a dollar that will circulate anywhere at face value. Moreover, he wants the country to have enough of such dollars ' to keep things moving. Preferential Duties. One of the absurd arguments which la being advanced in some quarters against the granting of preferential du ties to Imports brought to this country In American ships, as proposed by the ' St. Louis platform, is that other coun tries, especially England, might retali ate by putting a duty on American agricultural products sent to them In American ships. It is a sufllclent re ply to this argument to state the obvi ous truth that such a duty, if Imposed by a European country, would simply lay an extra burden upon the consum ers In that country. Europe does not buy American foodstuffs out of cour- - tesy or compliment, but because she needs them and con nowhere else get their equivalent at equally satisfactory prices. On the contrary, few ' things which we buy of Europe could not, If necessary, be made here at home or secured from some other quarter of the globe by American mariners doing business tinder the American flag, - The granting of preferential duties this country Is no new policy.' It was In vogue during the early years of the republic and produced excellent results, as may be observed by means of the following table from the Manufacturer: American British tonnage tonnage employed employed In foreign In American Tear. trade trade. 17SS 127.E9 W,lll 171 414.S79 . . 30o,li5 174 r.25.649 S7.0WI 1?.J 675.046 1S.689 In the year 1S07 the American tonnage engaged In foreign trade amounted to 848,808 tons, showing an increase In IS years, under the stimulus of preferential duties, of nearly 600 per cent. "We are," says tire Manufacturer, "In a far better position to put our system Into effective operation now than we were then; and the profits from the ocean carrying business in which our nation Is Inter ested are vastly larger In one year, than the profits obtained during the IS years referred to. The prise Is so grent ns to be worthy of a vigorous struggle to get It: but we can gvt It without a struggle If the next congress shall stand faithfully to the assurances given In the party platform." The Twin Shaft Disaster. In the face of a calamity like that at PIttston It becomes men to lay aside every feeling save sympathy. The re sponsibility for tho terrible affair, If it can be placed to any other door than that of sheer accident, can Justly be determined only when Intense excite ment shall have given way to discre tion. Heartrending as the casualty is, and almost unprecedented in magnitude, It is not to be undone by excited speech. The occasion calls rather for ready aid; and It speaks eloquently for the man hood of the anthracite region that this is already generously forthcoming. Let those who speak of the coal trade as an extortion look on this piteous picture of Its Inexpressible cost and bethink them where else In the whole realm of peaceful Industry the parallel to It can be found. Words of Deserved Praise. Apt, eloquent and appropriate was the speech of Charles Emory Smith at the monster ratification meeting at Canton Saturday. If it was personal In its tone of tribute and Indorsement, it was only a reflex of the thoughts of the American people. We quote one excerpt: "I congratulate you upon the supremo honor which comes to the man whom you, In your love and faith, have given to public life, and I congratulate him upon the personal devotion and long and loyal support of such a people as I see before me. No man can hold the continued fidelity of such a people with out being worthy of the broadest trust. This earnest and high-minded commun ity represents and reflects the intelli gence, Judgment and patriotism of the great American people. To preserve the full and constantly growing confidence of such a constituency requires services of the- highest standard) and is Itself the pathway and the title to the confi dence of the whole country. "The great rulers of the Republic have for the most part sprung from such communities'. The Llncolns, the Grants, the Garfields, the Blaines and the Harri sons have met the highest demands of the nation because they have grown up with the flavor of the soil and in close touch with the plain people. To this Immortal roll of the people's leaders Major McKlnley comes by the right of a popular choice and an anointment unsurpassed in all our history. "Fitly placed upon the ticket with him is Garret A. Hobart, of New Jersey. Able, upright and true, he Is worthy of the association. Speaking with person al knowledge as his neighbor and triend, I shall not, I trust, overstep the bounds of good taste and propriety when I say that in his personal dignity and charac ter, In the fragrance and graces of his home life, he Is well matched with his chief, and that this ticket as a whole and In each of its parts, In Its stainless personality and in Its sweet home Influ ences, addresses itself in the largest measure to the approval and confidence of the millions of American homes. "The Republican party has never shown Itself worthier of Its high mis sion than In its action at St. Louis. It has never risen to a loftier plane of principle and courage." Pennsylvania Is not prouder of the men thus eulogized than It Is of their eulogist, A curious social phenomenon Is dis closed In the apparent Impossibility of getting through the English parliament a . bill to legalize the marriage of a widower to his deceased wife's sister. Bills to this end have been before par liament time without number and in variably without Jiuccess. The proposi tion last week passed second reading In the commons, but Is doomed, as of old, to defeat In the Lords. Meanwhile, some smart man ought to explain why a widower should not marry his de ceased wife's sister, If he loves her and she loves him. Sheriff demons is to be commended for his stand in declining to give out morbid Information concerning the prospective execution of one of the county's condemned assassins. The publication of gory details on such a subject may be popular; In fact, It Is. But It Is none the less a mistake. If every county had a sheriff who would keep as close a clutch upon the Jail as Lackawanna's present sheriff does, the decline In popular mawklshness with respect to capital criminals would soon become conspicuous. England's present respect for. the Monroe doctrine, as shown In her solic itation of American help In the arrest by. yemiueUv cf her. official. Hwriion, should not be regarded with too great exultation. England of course respects the Monroe doctrine when it can be of use to her: but It remains to bo seen whether this Is one of the rules that will work both ways. The Gentry verdict In Philadelphia conforms to obvious Justice. That form of amatory frenxy which keeks vent In wilful assassination is In need of reso lute discouragement. The death sen tence cannot be better employed than by ridding society of those love-craxed fiends who exhibit their affection by murdering Its victims. The Reading Herald comes to the front with a twelve-page "bicycle num ber," Given over chiefly to articles nnd advertisements of Interest to wheel men. Next! No possible cheapening of tho money of the country could bring or keep prosperity so Ions ns our manufactur ing and our wage-paying are done abroad. "Tho tariff is not an Issue" with those who are afraid to face it. But with all others It Is a very live Issue, as next fall's election will demonstrate. From the manner In which tho Hon. Chris. Mngce lambastes Quay a stranger would Infer that Christopher was the one who made McKlnley the nominee. The Kansas wheat crop this year is tho largest on record,' which is nnother way of Baying that Kansas will con tinue loyal to the Republican party. The prevalent western opinion seems to be that Mr. Whitney's International bimetallism silver brick is composed principally of sawdust. Mr. Whitney declares that the disrup tion of the Democracy would be "an Irremediable misfortune."- Why would It? If this country can once get its in come to exceed Its expenses, tho finan cial Issue will take care of Itself. President DInz, of Mexico, has Just sustained his fifth re-election. But, then, Diaz Is worth re-electing. Senator Quay denies that ho Is go ing to Canton. Maybe his last pil grimage was enough. Teller snys Bland Is honest but not brilliant. Teller doubtless has In mind a man who Is both. For a man who Is "not a candidate," Senator Teller does a curious quantity of loud talking. We still hope that G rover Cleveland will be kind enough not to Indorse McKlnley. If the Democrats nominate McLean it will probably be for revenue only. The surest contractor of tho currency is a deficit tariff. THE GOLD STANDARD. From tho Globe-Democrat. The fact cannot bo too often repeated that the declaration of the Republican party in favor of the gold standard sim ply means tho maintenance of a thing that already exists. It is the free silver people who propose to muke a change und establish a new standard. They are against the present currency system, and anxious to substitute for it one under which a different kind of money would be used for the pnyment of debts and wages and the trnnsaoton of the coun try's business. Tho Republicans believe in keeping things as they are In that respect. That is to say, they hold that we now have sound and satisfactory money, and that It would be foolish and disastrous to throw uway this advan tage. It Is not proposed to eliminate sli ver from tho currency and prevent its use for commercial purposes, but only to so limit the amount of it that it can circulate freely at par with gold. Any Intelligent voter can readily comprehend tho distinction and the reason for mak ing it. We have absorbed as much sil ver as we can carry with safety, and the Republicans are opposed to an Increase of It that would Inevitably unsettle values, depreciate the currency, and force us to an inferior standard. It Is not true, as the free silver orators practically assert, that the Republican party Is seeking to mnko gold the only form of money lh the country. On the contrary, it merely insists that other forms of money shall be kept ns good as gold. There should be no objection to that from any man who has the pros perity and welfare of the country at heart. There cannot be two standards of vnlue at the snme time, and the Re publicans contend that the one which now exists, and which is known to be safe, shotild not be exchanged for one that would-be unsafe an! In every way mischievous. The sliver element now in the currency Is freely accepted because It Is on a parity with gold, nnd the Re publicans wish to continue it In service on that basis; but they are against the free and unlimited coinage of It because that would destroy tho parity and flood the country with a depreciated circula tion. It Is rfot n question of dispensing with the use of Bilver, but of adapting the volume of It tn tho conditions which govern Its value. The limit of safe'v In the coinage cf Biinh money has been reached, and the Republican party says that wo should have no more of it when the result would certainly be n stupen dous misfortune! That. Is whnt is meant, nnd all thnt Is meant, by the maintenance of the gold standard. A STORY AltOUT QUAY. Wellman, In the Times-Herald. Them is a clever story about Senator Quay which, though somewhat personal, Is so characteristic that I nm Inclined to strnin a point and tell It. Mr. Quay Is not very much of a drinking man, but when he has a particularly hard political nut to crack he likes to Bit down nnd think It out, aided by the Inspiration of some liquid tonic. A year ago last spring Senator Quay was threatened with political anni hilation. The "hojr combine" was after him, hot nnd heavy. Quay called a meet lng of his followers it Brlgantlne Beach, N. J. One whole evening they Bat nnd talked the matter over Quay, Boles Pen rott), Senator Andrews, Frank Leach and others and the chief question to be de cided was whether Quay himself or one of his lieutenants should run for chair man of the state committee. About mid night the senator said: "Go to bed, boys, and I will sit here a while and think this thing over. In the morning I'll give you my decision." Next morning the "boys" cams down stairs, and, to their great surprise, there wns Quay sitting Just where they had left htm. On the table by his side was a big bottle of whisky, which had been full tho night before, but which was now half emptied. ' "Boys," said Quay, pointing to the hot tic, "I have taken my last drink till I am elected chairman of the state commit tee." Tho decision once reached, no Mm ws lost In getting to work. .Within forty.. eight hours (0.000 letters Were seat out ask ing the support of Republicans alt over the state. Two months later, within an hour after the loyal Quay men had shout ed for Joy over the senator's extraordi nary victory at Harrisburg, the hero of tha battle disappeared. No one could find him. Next day the facta became known. The senator had retired to the house of a friend In Harrlsburg, shut himself In his room, taken that Brlgantlne Beach bottle of whisky out of his satchel and finished It. Next morning he was out among his friends, as bright as a new dol lar. AN INSTRUCTIVE SHOWING. From the Manufacturer.
