Last evening's parade ought to con
vince even the obtuse Times that this
is not a Roud year for the Popooratlc
Siamese twin doctrines of free sliver
anil free trail.
Right to the Point.
The Timis-lK-rald codllles the objec
tions to free colnata- from the woik
hiKinan's Biandioliii by asking him
to remember
That the mints of the United States
cannot cnato wealth.
That the Indefinite Increase of the
circulating medium cannot obliterate
poverty.
That Increaslns the instruments that
are devised for measuriiiG values can
not increase the real value ' for any
eotnmoilit;'.
That a currency which requires
mure dollars to buy a given commodity
is a fraud U'.ioii the worklngman un
less his wairua are proportionately in
croaBi'd. That waRfs. being subject to the
law of supply and demand, cannot be
arbitrarily increased by any coinage
law that can hti enacted.
That the only way wages can bo
Increased Is by stimulating the pro
ductive industries that employ labor,
thereby Increasins the demand.
That this cannot be done by coining
the silver miners' bullion and stamping
u lie on the face of each coin.
That even though the bullion were
coined into honest dollars at the mar
ket value of 32 to 1 it vould not force
an Increase In any man's wages.
That the free coinage of as many
move honest dollars as we now have
in circulation would not benefit labor,
because If it increased the selllint
price of commodities it would not In
crease wacvs unless there was a
marked scarcity of labor.
That increasing the circulating med
ium beyond the needs of public busi
ness, whether with short dollars or
full dollars. Is therefore a fraud upon
the wage-worker, cheating him out of
a portion of the just and equitable
purchasing power of his labor.
That the business of the country
does not require an increase In the
instruments for the transfer of prop
erty. "
That actual currency is seldom seen
and rarely exchanged In the larger
and more Ini'ioi tunt commercial trans
actions of this country, 90 per cent, of
this business being done with checks,
the value of which depends largely
upon credit and confidence.
That our per capita circulation is
now $;2..15, which is amply large
enough to do the business of this
country.
That the claim of the silverites that
the larger the volume of the currency
the higher the prices is not an estab
lished economic proposition. France
has $35.?? per capita, Switzerland has
SH.97, while the prices are about the
same In both countries.
That the free coinage scheme pro
posed by Mr. Itryun would not In
crease the money in circulation, but
would cause a violent contraction of
the currency by driving out the $G12,
000,000 of gold now In the circulating
medium; the $010,000,000 of silver coin
anil certificates would lose hulf their
purchasing power; the $475,000,000 of
paper money would be redeemable
only In silver, and hence would fall
to one-half its present value. Net loss
to circulating medium, $1,154,500,000.
That there is absolutely nothing in
the free coinage scheme for Ameri
can wage-earners.
After buncoing the American people
with free trade It is useless for the
Democrats to expect to repeat the trick
with free silver. The voters are "onto
their game."
Vote for the RoberUes. '
No amount of wild bluffing on the
part of the Democratic press can ob
scure the fact that the present Re
publican county commissioners have
left behind them during the past three
years a clean and creditable record.
Their work speaks for Itself and chal
lenges investigation.
In accordance with custom, and very
properly, too, these gentlemen have
been renominated; and the same con
siderations which won that recognition
from the party will insure their re
election by the people. By reason of
capability and experience they merit a
second term; and politically it would
be a serious mistake were they to be
deprived ot it. s
The Democratic leaden, If they
should defeat either of the Robertses
next Tuesday and thus gain control of
the commissioners' office, would at once
proceed to lay. plans for the capture of
several other important county offtceB
one year hence, .They would be en
couraged to desperate effort In this di
rection and would have a powerful aux
iliary placed" Inf their handsi -
Consequently, every Republican who
values party supremacy should stand
by the county, ticket and vote It
straight. That is the only way to shut
off the Inspiration of the enemy. '
Mr. Doland in a recent speech waxed
eloquent In moral wrath because the
sound money forces in one Kentucky
district are supporting Colonel Breck
inridge for congress. Breckinridge pub
licly confessed his fault and was pun
ished. There are probably equal in
stances of mora) obliquity on the free
silver side, if the truth were known;
and yet you don't hear Republicans
howling along that line. Brother Bo
land had better fight fair.
Last Evening's Parade.
The charge that the worklngmen of
this country favor the dishonest dollar
and are in sympathy with the chief
architects of the Wilson bill, has been
receiving many jolts of late, but none
quite so impressive in a local sense as
was imparted last night. To Insinuate
that the enthusiasm which. Impelled
that long line of men, mostly tollers
for dally wages, to participate with
presence, banners, music and shouting
In the grandest political demonstra
tion of its character ever seen in Lack
awanna county, was the creation ot
purchase or intimidation yon the part
of employers is to write the inslnuator
down either a knave or an uss. There
is no middle explanation and no more
delicate characterization which will
cover the case.
Don't take needless chances on a
Democratic board of county commis
sioners when the present board, con
trolled by the Messrs. Roberts, has
done good work, knows its business
thoroughly and Is in every respect
trustworthy.
Why Second District Voters Should
Re-elect Hon. Alex. T. Council.
Because he saved them $17,000 a year
by his poor district bill.
Because he looked after the legisla
tive needs of the Pennsylvania Oral
school and Lackawanna hospital as no
previous member has done In years.
Because It was due to him and to
him alone that the mechanic's lien law
was amended so as to protect the tvork
ingman acalnst secret contracts.
Because he was the man who suc
cessfully championed the plumbers'
registration bill, a measure which pre
viously had always failed to go
through.
Because in countless other ways he
exhibited during his first term such
marked capacity for effective legisla
tive work that he has honorably earned
the compliment of a re-election and
ought to get It without regard to party.
Because If a Democrat were sent to
Ilanlsburg In his place, he would be
practically helpless, owing to his In
experience and his political alllliatlons,
and the important interests of the most
Important city in the state would
thereby have to take care of them
selves, or In other words be neglected.
Can the city of Scranton afford to take
so great a risk?
This Is a year when even the sincere
Democrat can find plenty of justifica
tion for voting the straight Republican
ticket.
Why Hon. John R. Farr Should Be
Re-elected.
Because he introduced and passed
the free text book bill, which has saved
every head of a family in his district
from $15 to $20 a year in the cost of
school books and school supplies.
Because he was successful in secur
ing the adoption in this state of com
pulsory education, whereby the chil
dren of careless or unworthy parents
are given an equal chance with other
children to lit themselves for good citi
zenship; and because he will be needed
in the next legislature to help amend
and perfect this valuable measure.
Because as a representative he has
ripe experience, Is well known, has
demonstrated his vigilance in behalf of
the Interests of his district and Is one
of the recognized leaders of the house.
And finally, because he Is a Republi
can, running on the Republican ticket
In a strongly Republican district
and entitled by every consideration of
party regularity to the cordial support
of every Republican voter In that dis
trict. Bear in mind that Dr. Mackey'g elec
tion In the Third district means a vote
for a sound money United States sena
tor to succeed Cameron.
The Case of Reynolds Versus Fadden
In the Fourth District.
We shall not say a word against Mr.
Fadden personally. We shall only say
that in private character and in per
sonal accomplishments Mr. Reynolds
is at least his opponent's equal.
That being true, what principles call
for John F. Reynolds' election ? In the
first place, he is for Protection and
sound money; .at Harrisburg he would
vote for a United States senator to
champion both of those magnificent
and indispensable national doctrines.
Secondly, Mr. Reynolds would bu a
better representative for the people of
his district than any Democrat, for the
obvious reason that he would have
a better chance of obtaining recogni
tion and influence among the Republi
can leaders at Harrisburg. Democrats
are at a discount in the state legisla
ture. It takes a good, vigorous, wide
awake and alert Republican to secure
the attention which the Fourth dis
trict's necessities require. This was
shown In Hon. C. P. O'Malley's case. It
Is every whit as true in the present in
stance. Finally, much is to be gained by har
mony and unanimity. The other dis
tricts of Lackawanna country are
going to send Republican representa
tives to Harrisburg and It behooves the
Fourth district to be in the swim. A
solid delegation can' command atten
tion where a divided one is passed by.
Make no mistake, but vote for John
F. Reynolds.
"Elect McKlnley, and within ten
months the condition of this country
will be such that the government may
turn its attention in the direction of
bimetallism, and that subject will be
so strongly pressed upon the nations
of Europe that International bimetall
ism will be an accomplished fact be
fore the expiration of his term. With
in ten months after McKlnley's elec
tion the tariff will be adjusted on a
basis which will endure for many years
and there will be an end to economic
legislation. The nation can then ad
die A itself to higher questions of legi
timate statecraft." Senator Qua)-, at
Pittsburg. '
Here is Mark Hanna's estimate ot
McKlnley's electoral vote. Save it and
see how correct he U: .

Dr. N. C. Mackey's Cla m to an Elec
tion in the Third District.
He is a stalwart and earnest Repub
lican, who after having served his
party faithfully in many ways, may
with reason look for a local demon
stration of reciprocity.
He is a Republican, and therefore
sound on the money question. In other
words lie will not be for any free sil
ver candidate for United States Sena
tor to succeed J. Donald Cameron.
He Is a Republican, and consequent
ly would be in a position at Harris
burg to work In harmony with the
dominant party in the legislature,
thereby standing a better show to ren
der effective service for his district.
He is a Republican; and the Republi
can who votes against him will simply
give encouragement ' to a desperate
and dangerous opposition.
The Times has Information that n plot
has been hatehed for the corruption of
many election boards throughout the
county to make false und frail Jiilent re.
turns In the Interest of the Republican
candidates. Scranton Times.
One week hence it will doubtless
have information that this "infamous
plot" succeeded. It Is well for it to
have an explanation handy.
For County Auditors.
We wish to impress upon voters the
Importance in making a wise choice of
county auditors. This office stands In
much the same relation to the fiscal
administration of county affairs that
the safety valve does to the locomotive.
It may not have much to do when
things are going smoothly, but when
it is needed It Is needed badly.
The Republican party presents In A.
R. Klefer and Fred L. Ward two can
didates for this office who are ener
getic, wide-awake and capable young
men. Hoth have had experience as ac
countants. Both are well versed In the
kind of work which the offlce of auditor
involves. Both are good Republicans,
who merit the undivided support of
their party and wll'l doubtless receive
in addition many Democratic votes.
Vote for Klefer and Ward, and thus
assure a trustworthy auditing of the
county accounts.
The Money Issue in Brief.
By act of congress passed Nov. 1,
1893, it was declared to be "the policy
of the United States to continue the
use of both gold and silver as the
standard money and to coin both gold
and silver Into money of equal Intrin
sic and exchangeable value, such equal
ity to be secured through International
agreement, or by such safeguards of
legislation as will Insure the mainten
ance of the parity of value of the coins
of the two metals and the equal power
of every dollar at all times in the mar
kets and in the payment of debts."
To this polcy the Republican party Is
pledged. To it the present leadership
of the Democratic party is opposed. A
vote for McKlnley is a vote for plenty
of money, all of it as good as gold. A
vote for Bryan Is a vote for depreciated
silver and flat paper money, subject
to constant fluctuation and hostile to
business confidence and stability.
Choose between them.
When William J. Bryan advises
worklngmen to wear McKlnley but
tons but to vote for Bryan he advises
them to act a lie. He who would coun
sel deceit would practice It. What as
surance have the people that Mr. Bry
an, if elected, would not play the same
kind of a confidence game?
Down in Norfolk,- Va., a Democratic
candidate for congress named Griffin
has just offered to divide half of his sal
ary among the hospitals and churches
If the church vote will elect him. To a
man up a tree this looks as much like
bribery as It does like philanthropy.
"Horizontal Bill" Morrison, the Jef
fersonian sage of "'Egypt," has issued
a letter charging Oovernor Altgeld with
stealing Illinois state funds, raising the
tax-rate and general hypocrisy. The
letter gives details and Altgeld cannot
answer it any too soon.
The Republican congressional com
mittee has very properly indorsed tne
candidacy of Congressman Hicks in
the Twentieth Pennsylvania district,
and the voters of that district should
follow its good example.
There are a good many Republicans
In Illinois who don't appear to take
much stock In Altgcld's Republican op
ponent; but of two evils they will bo
quite certain to choose the least.
"There is a nobler and higher duty
for the government of the United States
than merely to act as a midwife at the
birth of the almighty dollar." Sena
tor Quay at Pittsburg.
Let every father In the First district
remember the author of the Farr free
text book bill, which has saved him
many dollars since It went into effect.
Possibly the reason why Watson and
Sewall are both kept on the Popoeratlc
ticket. Is to facilitate the explanation
of next week's defeat.
The Popoeratlc attempt to make a
big boglu man out of Mark Hanna U
evidently gaining very little headway.
Whatever may be his shortcomings
as a financier, John G. Carlisle certain
ly is a power on the stump.
Republicans have nothing to gain by
"trading" votes this year; and if they
do trade, they may lose.
Mr. Bryan's speeches are fast be
coming; mournful. He Is aging rapidly,
What Wage-Earners
Should Remember
That if Mr. Bryan Is elected president
he cannot repeal the laws of nature.
Thut legislatures are powsrless to legis
late value Into any commodity.
That Mr. Bryan himself stated in a
speech in congress that the decline in
price of inuuutactured products has been
due to the multiplicity of labor-saving
inventions, the object of which Is to
cheapen the cost of production.
That the prices of wheat, corn and other
agricultural products have been material,
ly affected by the wonderful perfection of
agricultural labor-saving Implements and
by the law of consumption and supply.
That 'the rise in wheat during the last
six weeks and the decline In silver dem
onstrate beyond all controversy that
wheat does not now and never has de
clined in tympathy with silver.
That the 20-cent rise In wheat has been
due to short crops in foreign wheat grow
ing countries ami bears no relation, near
or remote, to the prlco of Bllver.
That Argentina, which up to 1S77 was
unknown to wheat merchants as a com
petitor among the wheat producing coun
tries, threw onto the market a crop of U,
51t.uU7 bushels in 1SSU-K! and In IS93-K3
lm-rease.l her crop to 44,SSS,UU bushels.
Thut If Mr. Uryun's contentions are
true the tremendous peach and apple
crops In MichiHun this year, und the con.
sequent low prices ure due to the gold
slaniiur.l Instead of the bounty ot nnture.
Thnt If -Mr. Bryan Is correct when he
E.iys thut tree coinage will make silver
worth $1.29 per ounce, then wo would still
have the "dear dollar" and the sume con
ditions of which the repu.liatlonlsts com.
plain would continue to prevail.
Thut If Mr. Bryan Is not correct in this
statement then the free coinage dollar
would pass current at Its market value,
which at present would be about 53 cents.
Thut when we purchased for coinngo
2.250 tons of silver per annum the price
fell from $1.17 to 7S cents between 1KW
und 1S!3 und the production of silver In
creased X per cent.
That three-fourths of the population of
the globe, representing the most unpro
gresslve nations, now have free coinage of
silver, unil yet the bullion price for 371'i
grains Is only 53 cents in all the markets
of th world.
That Mr. Bryan's scheme does not con
template the purchase, of silver bullion
by the government, an J hence there la no
probability of the increased demand for
silver, which silverites claim would raise
the :rlce of bullion.
That the 423,000,0(10 silver dollars that
havu been coined since 1878 are kept at
parity with gold by the government be
cause they were coined by tho govern
ment from bullion owned by the govern
ment and were paid out by the govern
ment at a parity for services, property,
etc.
That under Mr. Bryan's free coinage
scheme the government would not own
tho bullion or the coins, would assume no
obligation to keep them at parity, and
hence the purchasing power when paid
to the laborer or the farmer would be only
eqiiul to the market value of the bullion
they eontulned.
Thnt this would mean a depreciation In
purchasing power of 50 per cent, in the
savings of the people as represented by
the deposits in the savings banks and tho
assets of building and loan associations,
mutual and benevolent societies and life
insuiunce companies.
Thnt the dollar we now have Is not "too
good" if the laborer is given an oppor.
tunlty to earn It.
That the only policy which will give
him a chance to earn It is the policy of
McKlnley. which proposes thut American
shops and American farms shall supply
the Amerlcun markets. Times-Herald.
THE MAN FOlt THE PLACE.
From the Provideneo Register.
In naming William Council for con
gress this year the Republicans of this
county simply made the initiative to what
the people will endorse with their ballots
on tho third of November, and we mis
take very much If tuut endorsement will
not be such an overwhelming one as to
make the opposition to him cringe with
shame In having brought a candidate Into
tho field against him. Mr. Connell repre
sents the Ideal Scranton citizen a mun
who having in youth tasted of the adver
sities of life, now In advancing years so
situated that he Is enabled to turn his
good fortune to the continued advantage
ot his fellow-man. That he has done for
a scoje of years, and that he Is doing to
day, und there are hundreds and thou
sands who honor and respect him because
of the help he has been to the communi
ty. Every important Industry In the city
and valley has a part of his energy cen
tered In It, and umler a prosperous pro
tective tariff and a Republican adminis
tration one needs but to stop and think
what Incalculable benefits all these in
dustries are to this section. It would nat
urally bo an aim of Mr. Connell to take
that part In governmental policy that
would imprise new life Into American In
dustry, and that he will surely do. Scran
ton feels the need of such a policy more
today than It ever did; so does the whole
Lackawanna valley, and Republicans
and thone of opposing factions who real
ize this for a single moment, will help to
make the next congress so strongly He
publican thnt President McKlnley, when
he conies Into office next March, will
have with him an administrative agency
that can and will uphold the best princi
ples of Americanism. William Connell,
a Republican, a man of the people, de
serves and ought to have every vote that
is cast In this citynd county, where the
Industrial question is so acute.
From the Olyph'ant Gazette. '
In William Connell, a candidate Is pre
sented whose loyalty to the Interest of
both labor and capital cannot be disputed.
Behind him aro yenrs of hur.l work in
the mines, from whose remembrance it Is
Impossible for him to drift, so acute In
character were they. The warm line of
sympathy for those who still wear tho
toller's garb can never be severed, mil,
therefore, with Mr. Connel in congress,
the worklngmen everywhere would have
no strongr friend and a defender than he.
His record Is unimpeachable, and he In
vites public investigation of Its white
pnges. At Washington he will honorably
and courageously represent the people
of this congressional district, high and
low. rich und poor. Removed by kind
fortune beyond the reach of temptation,
he will not bend the knee to the unscru
pulous plutocrat nor his ear to the bland
Ishments of the siren of corruption. A
vote for William Connell Is a vote for nn
honest dollar, a sound tariff and good
times.
XEAK1XO THE END.
From tho Tlmes-Herold.
Wo enter now upon the last week of
what Is In' many respects the most exciting
political campaign known to American
history. In dramatic incidents and acces
sories, In tho complexity of motives, In
the Individuality of the candidates. In Its
educational value, In Its presentation of
fundamental questions In morals and In
finance, and In the magnitude ot the In
terests dependent upon the Issue it Is pre
eminently nn epoch-making campaign.
It is scarcely rxtravagnt to say that tho
vote on Tuesday of next week will de
termine In the eyes of the world the de
gree of enlightenment which the United
States has attained and the extent to
which self-government Is a success on
this continent.
FULLY QUALIFIED.
From the Industrial News, v
It Is a pleasure to testify to the fitness
for office of the two gentlemen who ure
running on the. Republican ticket for
county commissioners. Messrs. Giles and
S. W. Roberts have already been tested
In this posltionr-and we venture that bath
of them would be content to allow a care
ful examination of the conduct of af
fairs lit that offlce during their term to
stand as a condemnation or recommenda
tion of their candidacy for re-election as
the case warranted, and surely no more
thorough qualification for offlce could be
required. Messrs. Klefer and Ward are
both estimable gentlemen eminently qual
ified for the offices of county auditors.
