David Hill, at Wolfert'a Roost, seems
to experience the timidity of a turkey
on a high limb on the eve of Thanks
giving. The lluaic Hall Convention.
The gathering of Mr. Bolnnd's follow
er! at Music Hall yesterday was a novel
affair when considered in the light of a
Democratic convention, It was notuble
for the absence or silence of the major
ity of leaders who have been known In
Lackawanna's Democracy in years
past. The places of nearly all of the
conservative Democrats who have been
in the front rank of the contingent that
generally comes to grief, at the polls,
were filled by the converts of Mr.
Roland's teachings as the original sil
ver man of Lackawanna county. The
convention was void of onthuslam
and contained no features of special In
terest save the inflammable utterances
of one of the upper valley boy orators,
whose remarks had no bearing upon the
Issues of the day, though the speaker
was requested by a member of the audi
ence to talk on the sliver question. The
Altgeldlan oration of the speaker was
not relished by the listeners and his re
marks were unworthy of comment, ex
cept as a novelty In the way of wild
oratory.
The ticket nominated is not composed
of timber that will arouse unusual inter
est In the ranks of the disorganized
Democracy of the county. Mr. Merrl
field, who was tendered the congress
ional nomination, has had experience
not calculated to kindle enthusiasm,
In case he concludes to again accept
the empty honor of a nomination. Upon
a. former occasion on an "off year"
with many elements in his favor, Mr.
Merrlfleld was defeated by a major
ity of two .thousand, and he can scarce
ly expect on a Presidential year against
a united and harmonious party, to bet
ter the record. Taken upon the whole
the ticket selected yesterday is one that
will no doubt assist In making easy In
November the victory In the interest of
the party of protection and sound
money.
The fact that President Cleveland
has as yet expressed no opinion con
cerning the Indianapolis ticket has
caused some remark. But, then, Mr.
Cleveland's opinions In such cases are
not as valuable as in days gone by, and
It Is probable that the band will play
just the same.
A Code of Rules Needed.
The Chicago News suggests that
somebody should write a treatise on
etiquette for presidential candidates.
The man who accepts the honors and
responsibilities of a nomination for the
highest office In the land has to act in
accordance with a peculiar and
vaguely defined code, and no observant,
person who has watched William Mc
KInley or William Bryan during the
last few weeks can have failed to note
the fact.
Four months ago both Mr. McKlnley
and Mr. Bryan were Independent pri
vate citizens, and no one paid very
much attention whether or not they
acted like other people. Suddenly they
became presidential candidates, and,
with the new honor, there has been a
change.
They must shake hands with every
body who chooses to come forward for
a shake. They must dodge around
through the alleys if they wish to be un
observed. If they want to ride through
the streets In an open carriage they
must ride bareheaded at the risk of
catching cold and paying a doctor's
bill. If anybody In the crowd yells
"Speech" they are expected to speak
whether they have anything to say or
not. They can't go to bed when they
want to. and If they are In bed they
can't tell when they must get up to
meet the demand of some Imperious
crowd of admirers. Whatever they say
must be couched In guarded words.
Every man In the crowd has the right
to Interrupt with questions, and ea"h
candidate must be expected to be ready
to defend himself upon the spot.
Somebody, therefore, ought t Intro
duce a code of tint's In defense of the
poor candidates. So many speeches
for so many people, so many shakes of
the hands and so many hat-tlpplngs
per diem the whole thing should be
regulated by programme. If not,1 the
presidential candidates will be driven
to take, .refuge In hospitals and asylums.
"I do not know what yon think
about it, hut I believe that It Is a
good deal better to open the
mills of the United States to the
labor of America than to open up
the. mints of the United States
to the silver of the world."
WILLIAM M'KINLEY.
The Expense of a Change.
In contemplation of the proposition to
change the basis of American currency
from gold to silver, an expert has given
some startling figures in a recent issue
of the Bingham ton Republican.
Of course, dropping from a hundred
cents basis to a fifty cents basis will cut
every debt in two in the middle and Give
the- debtor one-half while the creditor
will expect to pocket the other half.
There are due to the savings bank de
positors $81,810,597,023. There are due to
the building and loan fund associations
1450,667,954. There will be due to the
life insurance policy holders $1,136,061,
796. The fire insurance policies of the
United States amount to $1,332,225,190.
The' pensions ior one year amount to
$139,807,337, making a grand total of
$4,909,358,946.
Besides these there Is the national
debt of nearly $1,000,000,000, the state
debts of. $229,000,000, county debts of
$146,000,000, municipal dctbs of $123.
000,000, school district debts of $137,000,
000, besides the railroad stocks and
mortgages and the awful farm mort
gages about which the free sliver ad
vocates are walling.
The total silver currency of the world
amounts to $4,070,500,000; and the total
silver currency of the United Btates
amounts to $625,600,000. Halving all the
sayings banks deposits, building and
loan association stocks, life and fire In
surance policies, and pensions, railroad
securities and public debts of every de
scription In the interest of the Bllver in
the United States, or all the silver In
the world, would entail an appalling in
jury, and result In only slight benefits
to a select and mischievous few.
Jesse R. Grant, son of the greatest
general of modern times, is out with
a letter announcing that he favors free
Bllver. Jesse married a western stiver
mine and naturally regrets that his il
lustrious father had a hand In the "out
rage of '73."
Keep Up the Battle.
The warning of Chairman Hanna
that the friends of sound money should
not become over confident on account
of the victory in Vermont and the gen
eral change of sentiment in districts
where a few weeks ago free sliver was
the idol, Is wise and timely. While the
Eastern and Middle states are undoubt
edly safe for McKlnley, there is yet
much work before the Western and
Southern campaigners. Advocates of
good government and sound money
should not be caught napping no mat
ter how bright may be the prospects
of easy victory. The people should not
be content simply in electing Major
McKlnley, but should elect him by ma
jorities that will effectually banish the
Idea In some quarters that this country
is wavering between patriotism and
anarchy.
In addition, the election of a sound
money house and a reduction of the
Popocratlc vote In the United States
senate ore objects hardly less Import
ant than the election of McKlnley. The
sound money fight should he prosecuted
everywhere to the end, as If the result
were still as much In doubt as it seemed
to be a month or two ago. The thing
most to be desired is to settle at once
and for good an issue which will have
no possible ground after November to
rise up again as a disturber of Ameri
can Industry.
The Washington Post, In commenting
upon Senator Palmer, the Indianapolis
gold Democratic nominee for president,
says that not only has the Indianapolis
nominee out-Altgelded Altgeld and out
Tlllmaned Tillman, but he ha3 in tho
past been a vigorous advocate of sli
ver. The files of the Illinois State Reg
ister show that as Its editor Senator
Palmer used all the arguments being
employed by the advocates of silver at
the present time. Can It be possible
that the Indianapolis gathering has
been swindled by the ancient gold brick
enterprise?
Plain Talk.
The New York "Sun" puts the case
against silver in this common-sense
way:
"The people Ere not fools. 'Show ua
whore your silver theory is working as
you promise it would work here,' they
ask of the Bryan crowd. Suppose It
doesn't work according to your theory,
for theories do not always work, where
shall we be?' Naturally enough, Bryan,
who has nothing to lose and everything
to gain, would like to ride the hobby
Into the White House, but it will surely
carry us to ruin if he happens to be
mistaken about it, and financial and
business opinions almost unlvernally
agree that he is wrong. Under such
circumstances what must be the de
cision of every citizen who keeps his
head level? He will stand by the stand
ard of which he Is sure, and which pre
vails throughout prosperous and pro
gressive civilization. The silver men
ask htm to make a step which at leat
Involves tremendous risk. They oTer
him mere theory as opposed to actual
demonstration. They counsel htm to
discard the gold standard adopted by
all the most enlightened and the rich
est (Countries of the world, and to set
up the ,Mver standard of Mexico, of
Asia, and of South America, all of them
far behind In wealth, In industry, com
merce, and the social development of
their people."
There seems no question that such
considerations as these will have a de
termining influence -upon conservative
voters who will be satisfied to let well
enough alone.
A
Many readers will no doubt experience a
feeling of sadness over the announcement
of the passing of tennis. In swell resorts
Interest In the game Is rapidly dying out
and In many Instiiaces clubs have been
disbanded. Tennis has many admirers ev
erywhere in the ranks of spectators as
well as expert players. An exchange
dwells poetically upon the dlsuandment
of a club somewhat as follows: "It was
one of the prettiest spots In town In 1
popular days, when the afternoon sun
threw the long shadow of the club house
athwart the grounds, and every court
was occupied by gayly-clnd men and wo
men, playing vigorously that gracefullest
of games; when the plaxzas are crowded
as in an afternoon reception, with tho
added resemblance that Imonade and tea
and cakes and wafers went the rounds.
On tournament days an lrrldesccnt flood
overflowed on to the lawn, and In streams
of which the parasols made varlous-hued
bubbles and the flowered hats such vege
table drift as never was. they islanded
the emerald creen courts."
Tls true! And what more interesting
sight can one behold than three of four
slender youths clad in white pants and
negligee shirts hopping about on a section
of pounded earth In pursuit of a rubber
ball? Tennis Is a game that requires deep
thought as well as agility. If a ball conus
over the net, one must be on the alert to
meet It. An instant of hesitation and a
point Is lost. It is true that there ar
no blenching board features in tennis, and
the game furnishes no tragedies for the
press in the way of slaughtered umpires
or spiked runners, or broken heads and
ribs, like the great national games of haso
ball and foot hall. Yet there 1a a fascina
tion about the apollo-llko pose of the
tennis player that charms the eye, and as
an athletic amusement that may be In
dulged in without loss of life and limb it
has no equal. Hut the die Is cast. Ciolf
has succeeded the game almost entirely
as an amusement in metropolitan society,
nnd as a matter of course it will soon be
shelved with croquet In suburban locali
ties. Lovers of the beautiful will feel a
pang of regret at the passing of tennis.
There has always been a charm in the at
titude of the tennis maiden or young man
that is Irresistible even when the fair par
ticipants are bathed in vulgar perspiration!
They say that you are stopping at a swell
boarding house?
Yes we have dried apples at every meal.
The antics of the selfish bicycle rider are
the cuuse of much condemnation every
where, and as an exchange remarks, if
the bicycle rider wants to have his ma
chine popular among those who do not
ride, he should frown down the selfishness
that crops out on so many occasions.
There are hosts of riders In Scranton who
do not seem to understand the elements
of common decency. An example of the
hog bicycle rider of Scranton was given
a few days since when one of the ungain
ly specimens came whirling around the
corner near St. Peter's cathedral and
knocked down a girl who was probably
fourteen or fifteen years of age. Did he
offer to help the young woman up and apol
ogize for his carelessness? Not a bit of
It. He soundly berated the frightened-girl
for not getting out of the way and Jumo
Ing on to his wheel rode rapidly away.
This city has too many riders of the above
calibre.
'
Mary Elizabeth Lease claims to have
been "Melted with passion at the grandeur
of the Hudson river scenery." We aro
glad to be able to announce that Mary
pulled herself together sufficiently to get
bnck to Kansas.
Many persons will doubtless be inclined
to smile at accounts of the funeral given
by a Baltimore woman to her pet dog the
other day and perhaps make unkind re
marks at the unnecessary fuss over the ie
malns of a dead dog which could have
been better utilized In a soap factory.
Yet this extreme Is more pleasant to con
template than the action of cruel people
who abuse dumb animals. Too frequently
may be Been examples of the fiendish pro.
pensitles of creatures who pass for men in
the treatment accorded to nnliri.ils. It wo
must have extremes let the dog funerals
be more frequent.
POLICY HOLDERS AND SILVER.
Pittsburg Dispatch.
The excitement In Canada over the free
silver nrrttntlon, as affecting life Insurance
held by the Canadians In companies of the
United Slates, is a- very interesting Illus
tration of its workings. The principal part
of the life Insurance In Canada Is in com
panies of this nation. The premiums paid
by the Canadians aggregate about $3,500,
0U0 annually. These payments for many
years have been taken by our companies
and Invested In tile United States. Now
theCanadlnns nre moved by the threat of
free Fllver to Inquire what money their
policies are to be paid in at maturity.
The Canadian policy holders say with a
great deal of force that eevery dollar they
have put into life insurance has been of
gold value. Tiny l ave paid In the gold
standard nnd they think it no mow than
justice that their heirs shall be paid back
In the gold standard. The life insuraneo
companies do not deny this, but they say
with equal force that they cannot help
tliemselvc'3. They have invested their as
sets in mortgages and securities which are
to be subjected to the reduction of stand
ard if the free silver Idea is triumphant.
The only resources that they will have to
pay In are to be silver resources! If they
should use up more of them In order to buy
gold In which to pay foreign policies, it
would be simply taking away from the lo
meslic policy holders a share of the as
sets belonging to them and Inflicting a loss
on them in silver. As President Harrison
said the other day, the silver proposition
"coerces Integrity." Iiut tho explanation
does not satisfy the Canadians. A meet
ing of them In Halifax, the other day,
passed resolutions requesting the compa
nies to name a cash price for the surren
der of all policies, accompanied by a plain
declaration that they will take what they
can get and never do any more business
of that Bort with a nation whose politics
possess such possibilities of discredit.
This, of Itself, is not very gratifying
to the patriotic feelings; but It is not all
of it by any means. The fact Is that the
4,000,00) to 5.000.(100 policy holders of the
United States are in exactly the same po
sition as the lw.ouo policy holders of Can
ada, with one difference. Tho policy hold
ers of the United States have n vote on tho
matter, and those of Canada do not.
Otherwise their positions aro identical.
Tho policy holders of the United States
have paid all their premiums on the gold
basis; the accumulation of those premiums
has been Invested In bonds and mort
gages; as a rule, which applies more close
ly to life Insurance than to any other
class of business, these savings of the
mass are loaned to men of larger propeny
than the policy holders; and the free sil
ver idea is that the people will be bene
fited by letting the rich men pay back
their poorer creditors In dollars of less
value than they obtained.
The life Insurance policy holders, the
savings bank depositors, the building and
loan members, the United States pen
sioners, should all understand that they
are attacked by exactly the same com
pulsory cheat that is aglthtlng the Can
adian policy holders. When they do un
derstand it the infliction of such injuries
on the eredit and good name of the nation
will be no longer possible.

WORKING UP A CROWD.
From the Chicago Tribune.
There was a free silver meting at Ports
mouth, Ohio, last Saturday evening. It
was announced hy circulating a hand-bill
got up in this style:

WILL WORK FOR TARIFF.
Carbondale Leader.
While the election of a sound money
president Is of tho greatest importance. It
Is equally desirable that 'the majority in
congress should be on tho right side of the
monetary question. It Is not to conceived
that the voters of Lackawanna county will
neglect to send such a representative to
Washington. Mr. Connell, the Republican
candidate, was a delegate In the St, Louis
convention in June, and is a hearty sup
porter of the platform there adopted. He
will not only vote right on 'the monetary
question but will work for the restoration
of a protectlv tariff.
OUR NEW FAD.
Syracuse Courier.
Pennsylvania women have a brand new
fad, a coal mine party. They will ex
plore a coal mine, dig a lump of coal, and
lunch by the light of coal oil lamps. They
may endeavor to ascertain the reason for
bouncing the price of coal up $1.25 per
ton, but the chances are that they won't.
