And now the Times Insults and de
rides the worklngmen who marched In
Tuesday night's parade. It looks as if
U were determined soon to have no
friend left.
Tonight's Big Rally.
All persons remember with pleasure
that Is, all xf. 1 1 perhaps some of our
Democratic friends Hie visit to this
city of General Hastings and party
two years ago. Tho interval has wit
nessed many changes in politics and
public affairs, not the least of which
has been the forcing by the Chicago
convention of the general's amiable
antagonist of that year, Hon. William
M. gingerly, Into the Republican sound
money camp, where he is now doing
yeoman service for McKinley and
Hobart. But none of these intervening
mutations has lessened the esteem or
diminished the regard which the peo
ple of this city and community
have Ions felt for the mas
ter figure of the Johnstown disaster,
now become the chief executive of this
noble commonwealth. Unless we
greatly err, Governor Hastings will be
nccorded an ovation tonlcht which will
have In It not only eloquent testimony
of present regard but also as we
believe, the prophecy of future co-operation
toward his advancement to a
yet loftier sphere of opportunity and
usefulness;
But that apart, the demonstration of
this evening promises to be in point of
Interest and enthusiasm a natural
(supplement to the admirable rally of
two week.i ago, and a fitting climax to
the great parade of Tuesday last. It will
be, so to speak, the wind-up of a cam
paign of exceptional moment and sig
nificance, and therefore it calls for the
active interest of every friend of Pro
tection and sound money in the com
munity. Since it Is not the righteous
but the sinners whoarecalledto repent
ance, an endeavor should be made to
have a large attendance of voters dis
posed to Join with the opposition. They
cannot object to a fair statement of
the Republican side, and If their beliefs
cannot stand analysis then tho sooner
those beliefs are discarded the better.
Once more wo invite our Democratic
friends to be present and assure them
that if they come they will receive
valuable Information.
A vote for Roberts and Roberts is a
vote to reward conspicuous merit.
The Battle For Congress.
The purpose of this articde is not to
iraw comparisons between Mr. Connell
and Mr. Merrlfleld nor to argue con
cerning tho principles which these can
didates respectively represent. We as
sume that by this time almost If not
quite every voter In the county has de
cided how he will vote and why.
We address now Flmply those who
have decided after careful reflection to
vote for Mr. Connell; and our message
Is to suggest that so many of those as
can conveniently do so will prepare to
render assistance In securing the poll
ing of the Republican vote. The Re
publican county committee has effect
ed an organization which will do what
It can in this direction, but no organi
sation can do all that ne.eds to be done
at a national election. There is room
and duty for any number of volun
teers; the more Interest shown by Mr.
Connell's supporters In bringing for
ward the vote for Protection and sound
money, the more effective and emphatic
will be the verdict.
It is a concern primarily of the people
themselves. To the people we look for
generous and devoted co-operation.
A vote for John R. Farr Is a vote for
the right man In the right place.
Take No Rash Chances.
It cannot be too clearly Impressed
upon the minds of the electors of this
county that a change in the control of
tho county commissioners' office vould
be hazardous and unwise. The present
Republican majorly is known to be
honest and efficient. Its work In office
proves that it is both. Its Continuance
n office1 Involves no experiment, no
risk. We have lately had a national
Illustration of the workings of a
"change" In politics merely for the
sake of novelty. The same points were
raised for Cleveland In 1S92 that are
now being raised on a smaller scale for
Burke and Demuth.
The Democratic politicians then
went about complaining all day and
all night long that the Republicans
had been In power long enough; that
there must be something crooked In
their accounts; that it was time for a
rotation In office; that the change
wouldn't make much difference anyhow
In point of national policy, and that it
would be a nice thing for the office
seekers who were soliciting Votes. This
kind of talk was heard everywhere
(our years ago, and a good many vo
ters were Anally Influenced by It to
vote the Republican party out and to
vote the Demoeratlo party In. . They
Imagined It was only a scramble be-
tween politicians which wouldn't af
fect them however it ended.
Alas for this amiable view of the sit
uation, ' the results proved anything
but- happy. Every minute since that
"change"- was made the voters who
ma te it have regretted It. They regret
It now worse than they regretted It
last year or last week. It is an accum
ulating experience of remorse and ex
piation which they have had thrust
upon them by reason of their willing
ness four years ago to take stock in
Democratic promises and to invest
trust in a Democratic administration.
Never before In political history has
a once prosperous people paid so high
a price for a momentary period of dis
trustfulness of a party which had al
ways served It well.
The lesson of this mistake applied to
local as well as to national affairs. The
cry for a change in the commission
ers' office Involves not simply a ohange
In men but also a change In policy. The
policy carried out by the Republican
majority in that ofllce has produced
most excellent resutts. It has brought
many and valuable Improvements and
met largely increased court costs with
out ralslnrr the tax rate. It has accu
mulated a cenerous sinking fund. It
has listed the securities of the county
among the safe and desirable Invest
ments of the country. The present
management of the county's fiscal af
fairs could not be bettered. It. could
easily, by a change in men and meth
ods, be made worse.
Take no rash chances. Pay no at
tention to tho deceptive arguments for
a change. Make assurance secure by
re-electing Roberts and Roberts.
A vote for Alex. Connell Is a vote for
the best Interests of the city cf Scran
ton. It la a vote for ability and ex
perience. The Legislative Delegation.
This country has lately assumed by
reason of its growth In population and
the large diversification of its material
Interests an Important rank among the
counties of tho commonwealth. It
stands among the first, politically as
well as industrially. Its interests at
Hnrrisburg require close and skilful at
tention. The choice of men for repre
sentatives of this county in the state
legislature becomes by reason of these
facts a subject of more than personal
Importance. It is not enough that a
candidate on the legislative ticket
Bhould be a "good fellow." The ques
tion should be: "Is he the most cap
able man to uphold the dignity and
promote the welfare of the coinmuuity
at the state capital?"
The four Republican candidates
meet thi3 test better than the four
Democratic candidates do. Not one of
the latter has had legislative exper
ience. Two of the former have had,
and the other two are more likely, by
reason of their political affiliations and
personal acquaintances at Harrisburg,
to get an early hold on legislative
problems than their JJemocrutlo op
ponents are. The delegation, if divided,
would lose the strength and the pres
tige of unity. It would cause tho county
to recede, from the commanding posi
tion which it occupied In state poli
tics and In state legislation two years
ago, and nothing would be gained by
the division to offset this loss.
In view of these considerations we
feel fully Justified in recommending
the election next Tuesday of a solid
Republican legislative delegation. The
best interests of the county require It.
The cause of sound money as affected
by the choice of a United States sena
tor to succeed Cameron requires it. No
reason of a public nature stands In
way of it. But for the fact that In each
district there are some voters with
personal bias against the Republican
candidate the election of a solid dele
gation would not be in any manner of
doubt. Let us urge the voters of this
county to look at this subject from an
elevated standpoint. Let us urge them
to consult the best interests not merely
of any class or clique or party but of
each district and the county itself as
a whole. If that be done, Lackawanna
will not fail to send to Harrisburg next
winter four capable representatives,
and every one a Republican.
A vote for Dr. N. C. Mackey is a vote
of censure on free sliver.
Put Up the Flag.
We know of a number of business
houses In this city which intend to
hoist the American (lag after McKinloy
Is elected. Now why not hoist that
flag before his election and thus help
to bring It about? The suggestion of
Chairman Hanna that next Saturday
he observed as Flag day, as an act of
Inspiration to the forces which are
fighting to save the national emblem
from the taint of repudiation and dis
honor, has been received with enthus
iastic favor on all sides, and we ven
ture to suggest that every business
house and every home In Scranton
dominated by the principles of honor
and equality for which the flag stands
be decorated with flags on that occa
sion, and made to serve as forceful
auxiliaries in the momentous battle of
the ensuing Tuesday.
Rear In mind that thl3 is no ordinary
division of voters along tho minor lines
of party; but a critical struggle for
prosperity or panic, confidence or dis
trust, welfare or general dissatisfac
tion and business ruin. The flag Is an
emblem well fitted to serve as the sym
bol of the forces which oppose the deg
redation of American Institutions and
tho prostration of American Industries
and Interests. It will suffer no harm
In the hands of those or the descend
ants of those who defended It against
a similar attack thirty-five yenrs ag.v,
nor Is such use of Jt In any degree de
rogatory to Its lofty and lnajustli p!g
nlficance. Just as William McKinley
stood for It on southern battlefields,
when, a boy soldier, he won his way
by gallantry up from the ranks to the
post of major, bo he stands for It today
a statesman full erown and ripened,
a patriot seasoned In the service of his
country, a leader on tho broadest lines
of national unity and honor.
Put up the flag; 'tis a first class
thing to fight for!
The postal card poll of the middle
west recently undertaken by the Chl
CRgo Record has been completed. Bryan
leads In only one of twelve states
Kentucky. Ho falls behind In Indiana,
Michigan, Illinois,- Wisconsin, Minne
sota. North Dakota, South Dakota,
Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas and Missouri.
This poll was admittedly fair and im
partial. .It has robbed the Topocrats
of their last hope.
While Bryan makes the stir In Chi
cago, don't fear that McKinley will not
receive the votes.
The Character Test.
The voter who desires to reach a fair
and honest verdict in this campaign
should pursue the same rule which
governs the action of a Jury In a court
of law. Not only should he weigh the
respective arguments of the. special
advocates but he should examine with
particular Interest the character of the
confronting witnesses.
In all soberness and candor, and
without intending any disrespect, who
ore the men that stand by Bryan in
this economic contest? Is there any
considerable proportion of experienced
statesmen among them? Does he re
ceive the confidence and support of a
majority of Hie students, the clergy,
the leading professional men. the jour
nalists, the men of business and af
fairs, the substantial and progressive,
in short, the indispensable element of
the community? If not, why not? If
not, how can ho hope to reach a fair
test of his theories even should he be
elected next week? How could a na
tion be made to prosper In a manner
contrary to the wishes and intentions
of the great majority of Its leading
citizens?
Let us examine the statement that
he is being supported by "the people."
Who constitute "the people" In this
country? The men who look to gov
ernment for success In life rather than
to Individual virtue, thrift and enter
prise? The men who think to better
their own condition by making worse
the condition of the well-to-do? The
men who have an ill will for olllcers of
the law and object to effective meas
ures for the protection of life and pro
perly? The men whose sympathies are
with those who violate law rather than
with those who enforce It? The men
who want special privileges through
legislation whereby GO cents' worth of
their property may be Inflated by flat
into a nominal dollar? Are these "tho
people" whose voice in tho adage Is
equivalent to the voice of God?
Do not let any sensible voter believe
so,
Major McKlnley's aptness at com
pacting great truths in scintillunt epi
grams was revealed anew on Tuesday
when in the course of one of his ad
dresses he said: "What we want in
this country is an opportunity to de
velop U." The more this remark Is
studied the more meaning appears in
It. It Is not more money which will In
spire the further development of na
tural resources, but more confidence.
Where there is confidence there will
soon be money. Money is only a means,
an instrument. People don't let the
lack of that baffle them when they
perceive a chance to engage in a pro
fitable enterprise. When the business
world is not scared, they can always
borrow capital on good security. The
greater the confidence the easier the
terms of borrowing, the less the se
curity required by the lender. Restore
confidence and this whole vexing
money problem will speedily proceed
to solve Itself.
The Chicago police are to bo con
gratulated upon the promptness and
determination with which they pro
ceeded to go for the miscreants who
recently tried to pelt Mr. Bryan with
rotten eggs. Rascals who stoop to such
tactics of expressing dissent to a
speaker or performer deserve no mercy.
It makes no difference who the speak
er Is or what he advocates; he is en
titled to a fair hearing, and the hood
lum who Interrupts him needs to be
relentlessly suppressed.
It may not be necessary, except for
routine purposes, to have county audi
tors during the next three years; and
on the other hand, Itmay. Onecannever
know In advance what contingencies
will arise. But the election of A. E.
Klefer and Fred L. Ward will In any
event Insure a prompt, vigilant and
honest scrutiny of the county bills and
accounts, and that is what the audi
tors are there for.
No private employer would arbitrar
ily dispense with the services of two
men with such admirable records for
honest and efficient work as have S.
W. and Giles Roberts; and a majority
of the voters of Lackawanna county
are not less Intelligent nor less business-like
than the average private em
ployer. It is too bad that Secretary Lynch of
the People's party has no hope for the
republic if McKinley Is elected; but
maybe the promise of a janltorshlp in
some public building would cause his
gloom to vanish.
It won't he long now until General
Debility will be superseded In command
of the American industrial army by
General Confidence, under credentials
duly countersigned by President Wil
liam McKinley.
Mr. Bryan continues to talk about
coercion and continues to cite no
specific Instances. Let him come to
the point with a bill of pnrticulars or
be written down a deliberate falsifier.
The official threat to arrest Johnnie
Carman for U?vying political assess
ments on federal employes shows that
It mnkes Home difference to tho civil
service authorities whose ox is gored.
The claim Is absurd that Bryan's
crowds measure Bryan's vote. This Is
nowhere truer than in scnsatlon-lovins
Chicago.
Mr. Bryan denies that ho is a de
magogue. Must wo conclude, there
fore, that he Is weak In the intellect?
To make the lesson Impressive, Just
mark the sound money ticket In the
circle, and let it go at that.
A vote for John V. Reynolds Is a vote
for another term of first class repre
sentation at Harrlnburg.
It was rather late when Garret A.
Hobart took the slump; but It wnsnot
too late to be effective.
At all events Colonel Breckinridge's
economic morals arc sound. '
Tho antique egg Is a mighty poor
argument
What Wage-earners
Shotild Remember
That the only commodity they have to
Hell is thtir labor.
That tho condition of tho market ,for
this commodity depends not upon tho
amount of circulating medium in the
country, but upon the number of men who
are looking for a Job.
That he condition of the market for
this kind of commodity also depends upon
the number of Jobs to bo sought after.
That when fifty men ar3 waiting to fill
one Job the wages pnld to the lucky man
who gets the Job must neees aa: lly bo le.s
than they would be if only one man were
waiting for it.
That it must follow then, as a matter or
elementary logic, that tiie prlee paid tor
labor Is largely controlled by the law cf
supply and demand.
That It U also very evident that any
economic policy which multiplies the
number of Jobs In this country Is trr one
which Increases the demand and should
have the Indorsement of the wage-earners.
,
That the only policy which will multiply
the jybs to be secure! Is a policy which
encourages the establishment of new pro
ductive Industrie and which stimulates
thoso we already have.
That this cannot be done by any scheme
which propoces that the United Stales
shall take the silver miner's bullion and
coin It for him free of charge, vtampl.-ig
uppn each coin a valua which will not
represent Its purchnnliw power.
( That these Jobs cannot be multiplied by
a policy which, under tho false and decep
tive pica of "ehaap goods for the con
sumer" proposes that th Shops of Europe
and oriental countries shall do our manu
facturing for us.
That the promise of cheaper goods un.
der tho Wilson-liormnn tariff law, mado
by Mr. Ilrynn and others who helped to
frame it and who advocated Its enact
ment, has not been fuliillel. That the
only thlnuB that have become cheaper ara
the products of thD soil, caused by tho
tle.Teuxed home mnrket which always fol
lows the closing cf factories, Brit by the
repealing cf the reciprocity paragraph In
tho .Ni'-Kiidty law, which cut off the sale
of 4,lKXi,(M barrels of Hour per year and
cuuscd foreign nations to retaliate by ex
cluding our meat products.
That the promise of Mr. Ilryan and other
defenders of the W .Uon-Gormuti law that
we would set cheaper clothing by putting
wool on the free list has not been ful
filled. That good clothing Is no cheaper now
thnn la 1S92, although we imported 115,
311, 405 more pounds of wool In lMij than
wo did under tho McKinley law, and de
stroyed the business of "00,000 wool grow
ers In this country to try the free wool
experiment.
That the cost of this extra Importation
of wool was 1G,S1S,SS3, whloh was sent
abroad In gold, and which should have
gone to American wcol growers to be paid
to American wuge-earners.
That under the Wllson-Gorman law In
1SS5 we paid to foreign labor 1116.444,511
more gold for Importation of twentJJiino
different varieties of manufactured goods
thRti we did during the fiscal year 1894
under the M Kinky law.
That the census returns of 1S90 showed
that 23.iKiO.0lM people are directly depend
ent upon tlie manufacturing establish
ments of the United States. That If to
these aro added the farmers, grocers,
bakers and others whose living depends
upon supplying these employes, the ag
gregate would represent half our total
population.
That In the present contest the question
at Issue is, Shall capital be employed
again in these productive Industries as it
was In 1S32 under the .McKinley law, or
shall it be kept idle by tho menace of a
debased currency and by a tariff law
framed for tho benefit of European wage
earners? Times-Herald.
TIIE MAX FOIt CONGRESS.
From the Olyphant Record.
If there is anything euro In the political
future, the election of William Connell to
tho next congress Is. Everything stems
to point to him as our next representative
at Washington, and the prophecy Is baaed
on the fact that the people of the Eleventh
district appreciate true merit and manly
worth. Mr. Connell Is called "Undo"
William by many in Lackawunna county;
he may with great propriety be called
"Father" William, for he has been as
kind as a father to many ii. our county,
and the electors Hock to his standard,
for ho Is tho man whom tho people de
light to honor.
Kindly feeling goes a great way In pub
lic elections, but that is not the lole cle.
nient that will elect the head of the Re
publican ticket In Lackawanna county.
The district cannot get a better repre
sentative. Mr. Connell Is sound on all the
questions of the day, and up to the stand
ard of Republican demands. And If ever
In the history of the union it wag Impor
tant to send to Washington men of sound
views on the leading issues of the day,
now Is the occasion. The questions now
being debated on the public rostrum will
not be extinct after tho third of next No.
vember. They will pass from the people's
arena to congressional halls, and there
the tide must be stemmed by clear-sighted
men, who will neither be misled by sophis
try nor beguiled by the loud-mouthed re
pudiationlsts. Such a man Is Mr. Connell. Ho has
positive views on tho money question and
will staunchly stand by the country's
honor. He Is clear sighted on the qucs.
tlon of Protection and will ever be found
on the right side. He firmly believes in
tho authority of the federal government
to put down mob rule, and will ever be
found gtumling by that princlido should
the oucstlon bo brought before the'next
congress. The Republican candidate for
seat In the lower house or congress is
a safe man. The people of the Eleventh
district do well to rally around his stand
ard. Mr. Connell should get the largest
plurality ever given a candidate for con
gress In the history of our county. He de
serves it and tho Record believes he will
get It.
WATCH COXJiKESS.
From tho Carbondale Leader.
Tho record of Sir. Connell's career
speaks for Itself and nothing need bo
added. But personalities have little to do
with the Issues of this campaign. It Is
a light for the honor of the country, the
retention of our good money and the res
toration of protection and prosperity. To
each of theee Mr. Connell is unalterably
pledged, and every citizen who wants this
di&trlet represented in congress by one
who will stand lor these principles should
cast a vote for him. The composition of
our law-making congress Is of more Im
portance than the personality of the man
who sits In tha presidential chair. Voters
r'nould not forg t that.
