Attention Is directed to an "open let
ter to worklngmen." printed on another
page. It was written by a hard-working
and Industrious German-American
living In the South Side, and is full of
homely hut effective argument drawn
from actual experience. A careful
reading of It by any puzzled toller
ought to remove all doubt as to where
the best Interests of labor He in this
campaign.
Take No Chances.
In default of serious criticism of the
present management of the county
commissioner's office, the Democratic
local press has taken to ridiculing the
architecture of the reconstructed court
house. Exception Is taken to the urn
like decorations, and In elaboration of
artistic fastidiousness with reference to
this subject, whole columns of space
are squandered.
We lay no claim to equality with
these Democratic critics as connois
seurs of architectural fine points; what
they say as to the Inartistic lmpro
prlety of urns on a court house may
or may not be true. It is wholly a
matter of taste. Hut there are some
thlncs of more weighty Importance,
from the standpoint of the average tax
payer, thnn the splitting of aesthetical
hairs over architectural decorations.
Among them we take the liberty of
mentioning that during the three years
In whieh Messrs. S. W. and Giles Rob
erts have constituted the Republican
majority on the board of commission
ers, while there hus been an Increase
of nearly fifty per cent. In court costs
anil large Items of new expense for
election booths, culverts and bridges,
Jail improvements and repairs, and the
like, the tax rate for county purposes
has by their good management been
kept down to the old figure of six mills
on the dollar, and the county sinking
fund has reached the snug proportion
of $120,000, with an early prospect of
retiring $20,000 worth of the county's
outstanding' bonds.
The present Republican commission
ers may not In all respects fulfil the
lofty requirements of the cultured
aesthetes who direct the batteries of
artistic criticism upon the third story
adornments of the enlarged court
house, but it is some satisfaction to the
majority of tax-payers to feel that they
have been able to grapple with the
financial problems of their office In a
manner which has made this one of the
most economical county governments
In the state, size and population duly
considered. It may be that the men who
are running against them would come
out more strongly in the matter of
artistic beauty, but what assurance
have we that they -would be equally
efficient, economical and honest in their
handling of the public funds?
Without wishing to reflect upon them
in any way, we desire to advise the
practical voters of this county to take
no chances. They know the capabilities
of the present Republican commission
ers. They don't know how a Demo
cratic majority would pan out.
At Co. H armory .Providence, tomor
row night, an opportunity will be af
forded the public to hear, in Hon. Mar
riott Brosius, member of congress from
the Tenth Pennsylvania district, one of
the wittiest speakers In the country.
It should not be missed.
Whom It Would Benefit.
Not only is the free silver movement
a scheme to rob labor by paying its
wages in poorer dollars, but it is also
a scheme to make those poorer dollars
buy less than labor's present wages
buy. Thus whether at home or abroad,
the American worklngman would lose
by the transaction.
The farmer, also, would lose. Prices
might go up at home, but they would
not go up in Liverpool, where he would
still have to sell his surplus grain.
There he would continue to get the.
gold price, but it would probably be
paid to him in depreciated sliver, and
he wouldn't dare to object. The rise
of prices at home, however, would not
be a real rise. The crop which now
brings 1,000 hundred-cent dollars would,
it la true, then bring 2,000 free coinage
dollars, but one of the former would
be worth two of the latter. In other
words, the farmer has a choice between
1,000 real dollars and 2,000 half dollars,
and the only advantage to hbn in the
latter Is that he might for a short time
be able to work a few of them off on
the unsuspecting at their face value,
as some men now work off counterfeit
money. Only crooked farmers would
want that kind of a currency, and there
are very few of them.
Whom, then, would free coinage ben
efit? Just two classes. - It would bene
fit the silver mine-owner, because, as
we have shown, whether It increased
the commercial price of sliver or not,
it would in any event cut' down the
cost of production by enabling the
mine-owner to pay 2.33 ounces, of sil
ver bullion for a day's labor which
now under the gold standard costs him
6 ounces of that bullion. And It would
benefit the purposely idle and vicious,
because in the general mix-up which it
would bring about it would multiply
their opportunities for mischief-making.
Everybody else has good reason
to shun such a frightful plunge over the
precipice of repudiation and national
dishonor; and nearly everybody else
does shun it.
As General Harrison points out, the
Democratic party, in four years, has
completely reversed itself. Four years
ago Bryan, the free trader, made the
heavens ring with his appeals for
cheaper prices. Today, Bryan, the
free sllverite, bombards the empyeran
with even more clamorous apeals for
dearer prices. Which Bryan are we to
take seriously?
Re-elect Alex. Connell.
We have hitherto presented In detail
the record of Hon. Alex T. Connell in
the last ' legislature. We have shown
how In the one item of the poor board
alone, which he introduced and success
fully piloted through, he was instru
mental in saving to the voters of this
district nearly $18,000 a year. We have
also called attention to the various oth
er useful measures which he pushed
through the legislature, notably the
plumbers' registration bill and his bill
relating to mechanlo's liens, whereby
the claim of the workman is protected
against secret contracts between own
er and builder; and have spoken of his
watchfulness in behalf of the charitable
Institutions of the city which receive
state aid.
This record, which would have done
credit to any of the older members, was
the work of Alex. Connell during his
first term. Does it not appear reason
able that even better results may be
expected from him If he be given a sec
ond term? If re-elected he will go back
to Harrisburg already familiar with
legislative usages and able to enter at
once upon the real work of the session.
His period of schooling over, he will
take foremost rank among the veter
ans of the house and will exert a cor
responding degree of influence such as
can be wielded by no first-timer, no
matter how able.
The Second legislative district, in
cluding as it does an Important part of
the city of Scranton, should take a les
son from the other city districts. Phil
adelphia and Pittsburg, for Instance,
re-elect good representatives time after
time, and the result Is that these trained
regulars enjoy a decided advantage
over the raw recruits frequently sent
In from the country districts. When
ever any measure arises affecting city
Interests, these old timers from the
cities are always on hand to defend
their own; and by dint of long experi
ence they can often turn a point In a
manner to give the new member a vivid
reminder of his own shortcomings.
The city of Scranton Is entitled , to
the best, at Harrisburg as well as at
home. Its legislative interests each
year grow in importance. The Import
ance of having those interests well
cared for is growing correspondingly.
A Republican of experience, who has
shown that he can be trusted, would
be a better risk in the office of state
representative for the Second district
than an untried Democrat. He would
have not only the advantage of experi
ence and familiarity with legislative
ways but he would also be in better
touch with the forces that shape leg
islation at the state capital.
These considerations all call for the
re-election of Alex. T. Connell.
Speaking about the alleged "demand"
for silver dollars, there are some three
hundred and odd millions of these dol
lars piled up in a heap at Washington
that the government has at vari
ous times tried to put out into circula
tion, even offering to pay express
charges on them, but nobody would
take them so long as gold and paper
money were obtainable instead. This
doesn't indicate a popular eagerness to
load up with the cumbersome white
metal.
Why McKinley Will Win.
Major Handy has compiled a score of
Interesting reasons why McKinley Is
practically sure to win. Thev are
follows:
(1) The Republicans in two-thirds of tlie
states are practically unanimous in sup
porting the platform and the ticket.
(2) (None of the states in which there Is
perceptible division among Republicans Is
essential to McKlnley's success.
(3) In every Htate in the union there Is
a formal and formidable division of the
Democratic forces.
(I) The entire Influence of the Democrat,
ic federal administration Is enlisted In
opposition to the regular Democratic
ticket end platform.
(5) Most of the Influential Democratic
leaders are either actively contributing
to Republican success or withdrawn lor
the time from the field of national politics.
(C) The German-Americans, the Scandl.
navians and other citizens of foreign
birth or descent are for sound-money, ty
a large majority, while the masses of
worklngmen and farmers are firmly con
vinced that McKlnley's election is. the
only sure road to prosperity.
(7) Patriotic men of both parties are
contributing liberally for Republican suc
cess. Just as they would subscribe for the
country's defense against armed treason
or foreign Invasion.
(8) There will be a large Republican vote
everywhere. The registration has settled
that.
9) Nearly every Independent newspaper
Is In favor of McKinley.
(10) The met who left the Republican
party and made Democratic success pos
sible In 1884 and 1892 have, almost to a
man, returned to their allegiance.
(II) Every canvas that has been malo
In any debatable state shows a balance
favorable to Republican success.
(12) Every straw vote taken under fair
conditions Is three to five to one in favor
of McKinley.
OS) Everywhere Republican mass meet
ings have, been the largest ever known,
while- the Popocratlc meetlnics have been
smaller than usual, except where the Pop
ocratlc presidential candidate has been
on exhibition.
(14) The Republican candidate for presl.
dent has made no mistake during the
campaign; the Popocratlc candidate has
made many.
1G) The management of the national
campaign for the Republicans has been
able, honest and efficient, the best ever
known.
(10) The Popocratlc national committee
Is badly officered, badly manned, poverty
stricken and Inefficient! the worst on rec
ord. (17) Providence guiding nature by glv.
Ing us bountiful crops at a time when (he
rest of the world wants our products has
robbed the discontented of their only plea
for a change In our financial policy.
(18) The growing belief n McKlnley's
success has given us a foretaste of pros
perity, reflected In a rise In the price
of securities, and everybody knows the
mills only await the signal of 'McKlnley's
election to open their door and give work
to the unemployed masses.

It must be confessed that the amiable
major makes out a strong case. The
best of it is that every word he says
IS true.
It appears that the Central City Stove
works, of Newark, O., which recently
promised its men ten per cent, more
wages If Bryan were elected, employs 0
instead of 2 men. Say these 20 men
average 12 a day. Ten per cent, addi
tional for the whole twenty would be
only 324 a week, which would be a very
modest price to pay for the advertise
ment that this Arm has secured through
its humbug proposition. And since
Bryan isn't going to be elected, it gets
all this fine advertising for nothing.
Truly President Cunningham is a
"bird."
If "the demand for the sliver dollar"
Is the only thing that "gives
It value," as the Times says,
why .will an American silver dollar buy
two Mexican silver dollars, when the
former contains fewer grains than
either one of the latter? We repeat:
The American sliver dollar Is backed
by gold. Any one not satisfied with it
can get a gold dollar for it by simply
trading it at the bank for a treasury
note and presenting that note at the
United States treasury for redemption.
If you don't believe this, try it and see.
"Have you any doubt of your elec
tion?" E. 3. Gibson, the Philadelphia
Press' special correspondent, asked
Major McKinley, one day last week.
"Not the slightest," was the prompt
response. "This Is a campaign of
moral Issues, and I have a Arm belief
that the right will prevail?" Does
anybody really doubt it?
Since the Popocrats have no argu
ments to present and are not restrained
by any considerations of decency, it Is
to be expected that they will make a
big use of the campaign lie during the
next few days. Look out for it.
While the Times Is so bitterly de
nouncing Cleveland and Carlisle, does
It ever stop to read over what it used
to say for these men, four years ago?
It wasn't the Republicans who elected
Cleveland.
The shrievalty fight In Philadelphia
has already reached the "you are a
liar" stage. Yet after all, what does it
really amount to?
The Times replies to one of this pa
per's sound money arguments by call
ing it "rot." The Times Is an admitted
authority on rot.

A FEW FAIR QUESTIONS. '
Rochester Democrat and Chronicle.
It is worth while for those who are In
clined toward Bryanlsm to consider these
questions:
I there anything the matter with the
money now in circulation in the United
States?
Is not every dollar that you get as good
as any other dollar in the eountryT
Do you ever have to look at an Ameri
can dollar of any sort or description for
fear that you may get one that will not
pass for 100 cents?
How would you like to be paid for your
merchandise or produce or labor in Mcxl
canisad 60-cent dollars that Is, dollars of
a monetary value equal only to the silver
bullion of which they are composed?
Don't you know that such dollars are the
main circulating medium of all countries
that coin silver without limit?
Don't you know that in such countries
prosperity is confined to wealthy property
owners, and that those who have to work
for a living are miserably poor?
Have you read the report of the Chicago
labor committee, which stated that "the
Mexican laborer is apparently content
with the four bare walls of his ten-foot
square adobe hut, with nothing Inside but
the ground to sleep on, a shawl or blanket
to cover or wrap himself up in, a dish of
tortillas (corn pancakes) and frljolee
(beans) for his frugal meal while
the American laborer, across the line, baa
all the comforts of home and many of"
the luxuries or lifer
Would you like to trade' American con
ditions for Mexican conditions?
Is there any Justice in trying to fix a
fancy price on the property of the silver
millionaires, and leaving all other products
to ttake their chances under the law of
supply and demand?
Is there the slightest reason to believe
that such a favor, conferred on the mine
owners, would put an extra dollar Into
your pocket?
Is thero any honest way for you to get
money without earning it or selling some
thing for it?
Does not a revival of business promise
better results than the conversion of a
special product of a small section of the
country into doubtful dollars?
Why not vote for opening the mills to
American labor, rather than for opening
the mints to the silver of the world?
Why should our present good financial
system be uprooted, and no remedy be
applied to our depressed Industries?
Why not vote for McKinley, who stands
for good money and protected home Indus,
tries, rather than for Bryan, who stands
for Inferior money and for a free trado
system even more radical than the one
which has produced the present depression
and made the government a bond issuer
In time of peace?
AMERICAN EVOLUTION.
From the Detroit Tribune.
Evolution Is like a boiling pot. As long
as it bolls very gently the good puuoso
phers are, well content. But the minute It
gets violent and slops over and raises a
big steam with plenty of noise, they are
scared and cry out, and Insist that some
thing awful is going to happen. The pot
slops over oftener with us than with any
other nation, and that Is why we make
more progress than anybody else. We
are willing to put up with some unpleas
ant incidents for the sake of sooner reach
ing the end.
WHAT THEY OVERLOOK.
i
From the Tlmea-Herald,
A familiar blunder of sad commentators
upon the morals of the age Is to draw dis
