They claim the Bold dollar or Us

Senator Quay to Retire.
The published announcement of Sena
tor Quay's Intention to retire from pub
He lite at the end of his present term
does not surprise those who have
shared his confidence. Although thin Is
the first time the public has been in
formed of It, the fact has been known
for a considerable time within the
circle of his Immediate friends. The
resolution was formed more than two
years ago, and It was emphasized when
the senator won his famous battle of
last August.
Senator Quay hns been active In poli
tics for more than thirty years. He has
run the gamut of political excitement,
responsibility and vicissitude. The fu
ture at his age hoi Is out no new prom
ise of alluring political conquest. From
the humble station of a country editor
he has risen to tin position of United
States senator, with a reputation for po
litical generalship superior to that of
any contemporary. He has been suc
cessful In every' serious undertaking
and has well earned a permanent rest.
Circumstances may yet force a recon
sideration of his present intention, but
the probabilities are that It will be car
ried out as announced, and that the
duties of Republican leadership In the
foremost Republican state in the union
will soon devolve upon younger should
ers. -
It will remain for Pennsylanlans to
discover, after he shall have retired to
private life, how much they have been
Indebted to his Incomparable sagacity.
The public has heard much concerning
his faults, and much more concerning
what envious rivals or embittered op
ponents have falsely depicted as his
faults. But Tom Reed's definition of
a statesman as a politician who la dead
will be found to apply with exceptional
nicety to Matthew Stanley Quay when
he shall be no more In the pathway of
other men's ambitions, and no longer
the target of detraction and calumnia
tion. Possibly then the publlo will do
him Justice.
It la not dodging the money question
to say that until Protection was stricken
down, and we took to buying our goods
from foreigners instead of making them
roraelvts, the money, of tha United
States was generally satisfactory and
universally acceptable at its face value.
And it is not illogical to conclude that
if the prosperity-creating condition of
Protection be adequately restored, our
present money system will again be
found to be as good as any system
known. ,
Every man who wants the tariff Issue
shelved has a reason for preferring
another subject of discussion. Republi
cans are not afraid to discuss the tariff.
Why are Democrats?
"The Republican party stands
for honest money and the chance
to earn it by honest toil."
'' WILLIAM M'KINLEV.
Edward Atkinson Is a smart man who
sometimes forgets to make due allow
once for the fact that not all persons
are his intellectual equals. His argu
ments against free silver are strong,
but the epithets with which those argu
ments are often Interspersed are weak.
Mr. Atkinson will not make converts by
calling names.
The Triumph of Pingree.
Mayor Pingree, of Detroit, whom the
Republicans of Michigan, after one of
the hottest lights in the state's history,
have Just nominated for governor is an
Interesting man. He is pre-eminently
a man of original Ideas, some of which
are perhaps a litttle visionary, but all
of which bear the stainfi of a robust per
sonality, and are advocated with virile
force. He originated the project of cul
tivating vacant lots In behalf of tho
poor. He forced the street railways of
Detroit to come down to a three-cent
fare. He defeated the combined oppo
sition of the newspapers of Detroit in
several tests of municipal power. And,
most curious fact of all, he Is under
stood to be a free silver man Impreg
nated with much of the geographical
prejudice of his section, and conse
quently out of touch with the St. Louis
platform. Yet he has been chosen to
lead the Republican hosts In one of the
Important doubtful states, and the plat
form on which he runs unequivocally
Indorses the St. Louis deliverance.
Arrayed against him In the Grand
Haplils convention were forces that or
dinarily would seem Invincible. Every
corporation owning property In Michi
gan opposed his nomlnaton. Ex-Sena
tor McMillan, who for ten years has been
the Quay of the Wolverine state, was
against hltn. Kx-Senator Ferry was
against him; the newspapers were
against him: the more extreme gold
standard men were against him and
many of the so-called "machine" poli
ticians were actively engaged ngainst
him. It would have been no indication
of weakness had he been beaten by a
largo majority. Instead of that he has
routed the allied forces and enters upon
the state campaign with a personal
prestige greater than that of any man
who has appeared in Michigan politics
since the palmy days of Each Chandler.
The working clauses, the farmers, the
great middle class of taxpayers regard
less of party believe In his honesty, are
convinced of his courage and are there
fore willing to overlook minor faults.
Strange to say, the nomination of Pin
gree, the silver man, bids fair to be a
chief cause why Michigan will be car
ried for McKlnley and the gold stand
ard. The gold men recognize that Pin
gree as governor cannot do appreciable
Injury to the'eause of sound money, and
the' silver men will' support him 1n a
spirit of fellowship. With both wings
of the party flopping his way, and with
a large personal following among the
Democrats, he seems assured of an elec
tion and will unquestionably add im
petus to the success of the Republican
electoral ticket. All of which goes to
re-lnforce the opinion that western
politics on both' sides constitute an in
teresting subject of study.
Even free coinage men admit that the
fall In silver was due to world-wide
causes. Yet they want tnis nation,
which Is merely one In a large family
of great nations, to attempt by Itself to
lift silver up again. Does It look rea
sonable that we could succeed? Is it
worth while to Incur the risk of failure?
For Women to Consider.
One of the most effective sound
money arguments yet produced comes
in the shape of a circular to women
Issued by the women's department of
the Buffalo City bank. It puts In sim
ple form some practical phases of th
money question.
"Bear in mind," It says, "that free
coinage of silver means the doubling
In prices of all you buy for the dally
support of your families. By care and
economy you have arranged so that you
can live well and have something over
every year; or perhaps you are Just
able to make both ends meet. Under
free coinage all this will change. The
sum you are saving mill be swept out
by doubled prices, or if you are Just
able to pay expenses now, you will be
forced into debt and poverty by the
rising market under free silver.
"Wages, salaries and incomes will
not rise when, other things do under
free coinage. If they rise at all it will
be very slowly and never will equal
the advance of prices. This is posi
tively proved by the experience of our
own and other countries. Are you In
favor of higher prices for necessaries
of life, when It Is a continual struggle
to keep household expenses within the
bounds of income? A vote for free
silver is a vote to increase the cost of
living without power to Increase wages
or Incomes." ,
In proof of this last assertion the
following statistics are given:
In 18ti0 the United States was. and had
been- for many years, on a gold basis.
Wages were then paid In gold or Its equiv
alent. The war of the rebellion opened In
lsttl. During the war the government is
sued paper money in the same manner
that the silver people want It now to la-
aue silver money. Under paper money,
prices advanced rapidly and wages ad.
vnnced slowly, so that in Hits, while wages
advanced 43 per cent., prices of the nece.
Mir lea of life had advanced 117 per cent
The depreciated paper wages of the la
borer during the war were aa follows:
1X63 76 cents Instead of a gold dollar.
ISM to cents instead of a gold dollar.
18tK CO cents instead of a gold dollar.
The iwomen of the country are then
asked if they want such conditions as
these to be repeated. There Is no rea
son to doubt the nature of their reply.
The Tribune bids cordial welcome to
its young contemporary, the Sabbath De
fender, the first numbea of which is now
before the public. The Defender stands
for "the Sabbath and the flag," declares
for six days of labor and one day for rest
and makes out in the course of its eight
neat pages an unanswerable case. Its
editor. Rev. F. A. Dony, is equipped
with experience as well as zeal, and we
congratulate him on his journal's good
appearance.
"If we can create values by law, lot
us divide by half each furlong and
double the. acreage of every farm in
the United States. Wre can make by la.v
eight quarts for a bushel and multiply
the wheat product of the United States,
but will It fill a bigger bin? You may
by law call six Inches a foot, and men
now six feet high .will be twelve, but
will there be giants In that day?"-Sen-
ator Thurston, at Milwaukee.
Isn't it a trlile singular, come to
think of It, that the Democratic party
never found a word of fault with the
gold standard from the time of Its
thorough establishment in 187S down
to the day when a deficiency tariff up
set American Industry and spilled the
milk of American prosperity?
Congressman Mason surrounded the
whole subject when at Milwaukee the
other night he said: "Give us back
a protective tariff that gives employ
ment to labor, and you will hear na
more talk about flat money or free
silver."
"Mr. Bryan, when he voted for the
Wilson bill, said that he only voted Tor
it because it was a step In the right
direction. Where would we land after
a morning walk In that direction?"
Congressman Fowler of New Jersey,
The assertion that the senate will
stand firm for free silver no mivtter how
the election goes overlooks one fact.
Even the senate dare not remain deaf
to an emphatic expression of public
opinion.
THE CASE OF MEXICO.
A letter from the City of Mexico, printed
1n tho Chicago Times-Herald Monday
morning, Aug. S, contains, as that paper
Itself says, more truth, simply and
clearly told, about "prosperity" in
Mexico than nil the speeches and
niauazlne articles that have appeared
for a considerable period. The writer of
that letter has a salary of Jia a month
He pays $20 a month for a house which
consists of three or four connecting rooms,
all on the ground Moor, built around an
open court, which is common lawn, play
ground and backyard for six or eight
other families, living under the same roof.
It is to be remembered that a Mexican
npnrtmcnt-houso is nil on the ground
lloor.
II II II
Tho ordinary furnishing of such a house
for tho middle class natives consists of a
bed, an iron frame painted blue, with little
bits of gold paint, a woven wire mattress.
clamped between the head and foot boards.
costing IIS, and the mattress and pillows
stuffed with wool or cotton costing $18
more. Illankets cost $3 each and sheets
62 cents a vara, which is three Inches less
than a yard. The American Is somewhat
depressed to Qnd.that he must be content
with this plus a few extra sheets. His
chairs, table and wardrobe, If ho cannot
get along without such luxuries, will cost
$11.1, although the material Is only stained
pine and the cabinet making wretched.
If ho can afford it he may buy a skele
ton washstand with a toilet set of white
enamel Ironware, the whole costing him
$17. Bedroom suites, advertised in tho
Times-Herald for from 15 to $:, cost In
the City of Mexico from $l",0 to 200. There
Is a native carpet. Inferior grade, selling
for $1 for thirty-three Inches. American
ingrain costs 1.25 to $-'.00 and Brussels
I2.SU per vara.
-II II II
When it comes to food, the American is
brought to a still keener realization of tho
misery and logic of a free silver money
standard. Coffee is BO cents a pound. The
American accustomed to buying it of tho
best quality at home for half the money
asks an explanation. It Is ready. The
foreign market fixes the price. Butter 75
cents, unvaryingly, for the best qual
ity, the cheapest unsnlted from SO to CO
cents the year round. Lard 24 cants a
pound, ham and bacon 3H cents a pound,
bread 12 cents a loaf and small, milk, di
luted, the best, 10 cents a quart. Kerosene
oil is bought in glass bottles for 12 cents a
quart, the bottle costing 0 cents. Beef and
mutton 18 cents, pork 20 cents. Scrao
meat 10 to 12 cents. The least expensive
cotton goods fit to wear are from 27 cents
a vara to 40 cents. Muslin for underwear
is IS cpMs a vara of narrow width, and
the wider is 33 cents.
II II II
TIcw can people afford to buy such
thinss when women household servants
receive only $4 a month, men servants
$8 a month, street car drivers 75 cents a
day, conductors $1 and the average Mex
ican clerk In store or office $35 to $53 a
month? Kvery American who has trav
eled in Mexico within recent years knows
that these statements are absolutely true.
The natives contrive to live because they
are in a rudimentary condition of society.
Probably the mass of the native Mexicans
are comparatively happy on bread made
of corn, ground In primitive fashion be
tween stones. Very many of them wear
but a single garment In the house, with
one more in the rainy or cool season out
of doors. Skilled labor, such as it Is, Is to
be found only In the few large cities and
its wage has been already Indicated.
Thanks to tho climate, Httle money need
be spent on fuel, and the typical native
Mexican dwelling is not troubled with
either chimney or nyeplace, or door or
window. The floor is earthen and the
furnishing of the typical home is of the
scantiest.
II II II
Probably what Minister Romero, Gov
ernor Atlgeld and a few others who have
written about the prosperity of Mexico
mean by that word Is that, being on a sil
ver basis, the prices of its commodities
are fixed by the gold standard of the for
eign market and thus some producers
make some money. (Mexico sold to the
United States last year coffee to the value
of $5,971,439. Her total export of coffee
reached a value of $12,270,783. What prof.
Ited 4hls export to tho native consumer?
He was paid in silver and he trad -to pay
for 'his coffee In a gold equivalent, that is
to say, he was paid in a 54-cent dollar,
and he had to buy his coffee on the basis
of a 100-cent dollar.
AN EXCELLENT TICKET.
From the Industrial News.
The Lackawanna county Republican
convention waa held at Music Hall on
Tuesday afternoon and as was expected,
the congressional nomination waa unanl
mously tendered to Mr. William Connell,
The nomination of Messrs. Giles and S. W
Roberts the present efficient county com
missloners was a well-merited recognition
of their faithful administration of the
county's affairs during the past term,
For county auditors, Messrs. A. E. Kiefer
and F. L. Ward vcre successful. Both of
inese gentlemen are well known to bust
ness men and their ability to faithfully
discharge the duties of the lmportan
oince is unquestioned.
MR. t'OXNELL'8 NOMINATION.
From the Elmhurst Signal.
The Republican county convention held
at Scranton on Tuesday afternoon was a
very orderly gathering of the Republi
cans of Lackawanna. It was easy to ace
that tho delegates had come together In
a spirit of unity, and with a determine
tion to do a work that would reflect with
credit upon the party whose representa
tives they were.
Tho bestowment, by acclamation, of the
nomination for congress upon William
onnell, was a very kindly expression of
the convention s appreciation of a gen
tleman In whom the people have every
conmience.
In accepting that nomination Mr. Con
nell put himself on record as willing to
become the servant of the people if elect
cd. This of itself Is a strong statement
and should' be made by no one but a man
who felt his own strength and power to
discover what was best for the neople,
and then possess the moral courage to do
his duty.
If Mr. Connell has these qualities, and
we think he has. he Is In a position to make
good nis wish. The electors will not for-
get the declaration of this candidate that
he will be the servant of the people and
wnen after serving his term In congress,
he returns to his constituents with a rec
ord of faithful and true performance of
duty, they will meet him and say of him
'this Is the servant of the people!' And
tn-at is a recompense worthy the ambl
tion of an honest man.
A DEMOCRATIC? OPINION.
From the Wilkes-Barre Record.
A prominent Scranton Democrat In this
city yesterday remarked that there w.n
some doubt whether the Democrats of
Iackawanna would be able to induce any
desirable man to accept the congress nom
ination against Mr. William Connell, who
Is regarded us Invincible and certain of
the Democratic vote ns against any one
the party could place In the Held. He also
remarked that there was no disaffection
in the Republican party against Mr. Con
nell.
