Presumably Mr. Thomas Dolan
thinks It quite as "legitimate" to at
tempt to buy state legislators as to pur
chase city councilmen and rush through
franehlse jobs In the Interests of the
favored few. It will be seen whether
the public Is ready to Indorse his view
of the matter.
Senator Penrose's Strength.
The follow ing alifinment of Republi
can members of the next state house
of representatives on the United
States senatorial issue is believed from
present information to be very nearly
correct:

In addition, Senator Penrose will have
the support of not less than "6 out of
the 44 Republican senators, ranking a
total strength In the senatorial caucus
of 155. We consider that this estimate
Is conservative.
The New York Journal has under
taken to overthrow Senator Quay by
ridiculing his war record. That needs
no defense; but even hnd It been In
conspicuous for bravery, the senator
has fully established lighting qualities
since.
Untrue.
The National League of Business Men,
nn organization established on a perma
nent basis to preserve the honor anil In
tegrity of state and nation, and Indorsed
by President-elect McKlnley In language
of unqualified approval, has come to stay,
and will in the future take an actls'e part
In public affairs. From the French
Blankenburg Manifesto,
Similar statements are made by Mr.
Thomas Dolan, who goes further and
Fays this new corporation machine
will, regardless of Wanamaker's fate,
continue to fight for a grip on the state
government.
It Is untrue that this factional dis
tortion of the league's original pur
pose as a national Republican auxil
iary has received President-elect Mc
Klnley's unqualified approval. He
approved Its declaration of principles,
und they merit approval; but to say he
Indorsed the league's ulterior purpose
of overthrowing Quay and turning the
commonwealth Into a corporation prop
erty Is to Insult his manhood and give
color to the Bryan insinuations as to
the character of the recent Republican
campaign.
Under Quay's leadership Pennsylva
nia's Republicanism rose to the 300,000
mark. Is it Dolan's purpose to make
the state Democratic?
Mayor Strong, of New York, says he
regards Mr. Choate as a fit man for
senator, but he doesn't see the use of
setting him up against Piatt after
Piatt has captured an Impregnable ma
jority in the legislature. Perhaps May
or Strong Isn't ornamental and senti
mental enough In his political ideas to
suit the amateurs.
A Successful Newspaper.
With its issue of last Saturday the
Troy Times distributed a sixteen-page
supplement describing In detail Its var
ious and excellent facilities for produc
ing one of the most enterprising and
trustworthy newspapers in the coun
try. The supplement was also embel
lished with half tone portraits of the
paper's distinguished founder, John M.
Francis, and of its present editorial,
executive and mechanical forces, be
sides many views of the Times building
and the different newspaper depart
ments within that imposing and well
arranged structure. Most Interesting
of all was a history of the Times news
paper from its Inception in June, 1851,
to the present day.
liy diligent, conscientious and public
spirited work, the Troy Times has es
tablished Itself In a relation to Its large
constituency similar to that won by the
Public Ledger In Philadelphia, under
the direction of the late George W.
Childs. It Is a dally secular gospel in
which its readers have learned that
they can put entire confidence, without
risk of being purposely deceived. It
represents a solid, conservative and
manly type of journalism In sharp con
trast with some of the so-called "new
er" types of the time. It Is to the mind
what meat Is to the body; In other
words It is Invariably substantial and
beneficial. It has been a notable suc
cess financially, thanks to prudent and
skilful business management; but It
has been even more successful In Its
uplifting public Influences; and the
present Is a good opportunity to ac
knowledge some part of the public's
manifest Indebtedness.
It Is of public Interest to note in this
connection, that John M. Franels, the
founder and present editor-ln-chlef of
the Times, was the first American edi
tor to classify news into separate de
partments; and his son. Colonel Charles
S. Francis, who is the half-owner and
general manager of the Times, was the
first journalist to employ half-tone il
lustrations as a regular feature of daily
newspaper production.
It Is announced by Walter Wellman
that Major McKlnley has at no time
considered more than two names In
connection with the next state secre
taryshipthose of Senators Sherman
and Allison. The former Is first choice
and Mr. Wellman thinks he wlil accept.
How true this is we do not know. P.ut
we do know that John Sherman at the
head of the state department would
command very general confidence and
respect, and would bring to the office
the most ripened nnd varied experi
ence. As he is now the leading mem
ber of the senate committee on foreign
relations, the appointment would come
in the line of natural promotion.
Interesting, it Trus or False.
That certainly Is an Interesting story
which James Creelman cables from
Madrid with reference to an intended
ulllance of European powers to pre
vent Americans from intervening .n
Cuba. It probably Is the basis of M. ie
Rlowltz's sensational dispatch from
Paris to the London Times, printed Sat
urday und denied Sunday.
This is the Creelman version,
abridged: Last July the Spanish liilu
lsterof foreign affairs, theDukeof Tetu
an, held, conferences at San Sebastian
with six European ambassadors and
told them it was the purpose of the
Queen Regent to send an Identical note
to the six llrst-class powers, asking
them to address a note of advice and
warning to the United States on the
subject of American Interference in
Cuban' affairs. This was to be done
quietly und was to strike the Washing
ton authorities like a lightning stroke
from a clear sky. The note was writ
ten and ready for transmission when
Minister Taylor, by accident, learned
of the purpose. lie charged ojie of the
six ambassadors with the plot, said he
proposed at once to cable news of the
matter to Washington, and Intimated
that he expected nn Immediate recall,
with war on Spain to follow. The am
bassador, so Mr. Creelman says, begged
for an hour's delay, rushed to the Duke
of Tetuan, told him how matters stood,
and presently the duke sent for Min
ister Taylor, and gave him the most
solemn assurances that the project had
been precipitately abandoned.
This Is the story, Interesting, if true;
in fact, Interesting anyhow. Mr. Creel
man ordinarily would not take a prize
for accuracy; but he declares with Im
pressive earnestness that this time at
least he Is not fibbing a little bit. And
probably he is not. It would be like
Spanish diplomacy to attempt a trick
of that kind. There is small likelihood,
however, that any power save possibly
Oermany would gfve heed to such a re
quest or take needless chances of In
curring our ill will. Germany might,
because Germany, since Ulsmarck re
tired, has been very much In the I. inds
of amuteurs; but England, France and
Russlat at least surely would not,
However, all's well that ends well. The
United States, in Monroe's time, with
only 12,000.000 inhabitants, successfully
withstood the formidable Holy Al
liance; It needn't fear newspaper "com
bines" now, when it has a navy, Jack
Robinson and 6D,!l9,9!itf other vigorous
inhabitants,
Ex-Mlnlster Phelps says: "The reb
els In Cuba have no organized govern
ment, and not even an abiding place
which they qan call their own. They
are merely a guerilla force, which
would speedily be annihilated if drawn
into a general engagement with the
much superior Spanish army. It proves
Its existence by Its dexterity in avert
ing such an engagement. It would be
absurd to say that such a force con
stitutes a government, or that the Span
ish government In Cuba has been over
thrown, or that any diplomatic rela
tions could exist between these rebels
and the government of the United
States." What a fine old Tory Mr.
Phelps would have been had he lived
120 years ago.
Readers of thnt interesting little pub
lication for advertisers called Brains
will be glad to learn than Manly M.
Glllam, the man whose skill as a writ
er and placer of advertisements did so
much to build up John Wanamaker's
business, has been secured to conduct
for that paper a weekly department of
answers to business questions. His ex
perience, in other words, Is put at the
public's command. It would doubtless
pay the advertisers of Scranton to bear
this fact in mind.
Dispatches from a number of places
tell how indignant Americans have
burned General Weyler In efllgy. That
doesn't hurt the real Weyler a particle
and only looks childish. The best way
for the Individual citizen of this free
republic to show his displeasure at
Weylerlsm Is to petition congress to
recognize Cuba's independence and
then to subscribe what money he can
to aid the Cubans In their heroic
struggle.
With horror the Manufacturer ex
claims: "The very fact that the foreign
relations committee agreed to report
the Cameron resolution favorably sent
stocks shooting downward several
points!" Well, what of it? Is the gov
ernment at Washington to be run for
the exclusive accommodation of the
Stock exchange?
The news that Minister Ransom
agrees with Secretary Olney In his stand
on the Cuban question does not pro
duce a sensation of shock. Office-holders
seldom do differ radically In pub
llshed opinions from the appointing
power.
According to the state dairy and food
commissioner, the artificial yellow col
or Imparted to dairy butter in winter
is caused In many cases by a prepara
tion of coal tar, a substance unfit to
enter the human stomach. If that be
true, we do nut see why the law should
not forbid artificial coloring. Even
where the pigment Is harmless It Is odi
ous to healthy palettes, and no possible
good results from Its Intermixture with
pure butter. We should like to see
the legislature put a heavy penalty
on all doctorers of butter.

Opponents of the American navy
would have felt nice If a war with
Spain should have come and we should
have had no battleships with which to
hold our own
Mr. Wanamaker was too ill to speak
at Erie last evening, but we dare say
his money will do a good bit of quiet
talking at Harrisburg ere many days
have passed.
Wilkes-Barreans are still jeering at
Scranton for Its small support of the
Sleveking-Blspham concert; and the
worst of it is, we have no adequate de
fence. Jdsf a Word op Tuto
of Casual Mention
Mayor Bailey receives some very funny
anonymous letters from persons not only
In Scranton, but even as fur west as San
Frunclseo. One that came to him the
day before Christmas was from a little
girl who urged him to appoint her pa on
the police force. The reason she made
the request was that her father promised
to buy her u piano if the mayor should
Bee tit to appoint him. Here Is a letter to
his honor received yesterday:
Jersey City, N. J., Dec. 20, lSiHi.
Mayor of Soiunton und Board of Alder
men. Gentlemen: We appeal to you to help
expose these blackguards against our peo
ple. They charge us Jo.25 a ton for coul.
It Is un outrage on our people. You gen
tlemen know the real price of coal. These
men sit In an office and want to rob us.
They do no work ut all, but want to make
$1.25 a ton, while your miner gets only "0
cents a ton. It Is a shame. Now, help
us expose the 1. L. & W. H. H. gang,
also their friends here who arc in league
with them to rob the hundreds of people
who have not a pound of coal to burn. I
say again, expose them. The D L. & V
the C. U. It. of N. J., the Lehigh Valley
und other companies receive as freight t
a ton on a eur of thirty tons. This makes
$tw. Expose Sliuin, McTwombley, Max
well, Williams, Baker, Wilbur. Harris &
Son. The people of Jersey City call on
you for help against this railroad coal
trust. Let our people ruise up and drive
this gang of railroad presidents off the
earth. They are robbing the people and
the railroads and the stockholders. Help
us! Yours for justice and the people.
Laura Burt, the talented young wo
man who does such clever work "In Old
Kentucky," which was produced at the
Frothlngham Saturday, is very wdl
known in this city ami has a large fol
lowing of warm personal friends. Al
though still a very young womun she has
been on the stage quite a number of years,
first attracting murked attention by her
work In "Blue Jeans." She has two step
brothers who reside In this city. One Is
the Uev. Floyd Roberts and the others
is employed as a car decorator by the
Delaware, ljukawaiwia and Western
company. Miss Burt Is usually accom
panied on her travels by her moth"r,
who has been in the city for a week past
visiting Mr. ami Mrs. John Courier Mor
ris, of Madison avenue. She left the city
with her daughter Sunday for Trenton,
N. J. .Miss Burt is pretty and a very en
tertaining conversationalist, but she is a
young woman of strong common sense
wllhal and her success behind the foot
lights has In no way turned her pretty
head.
Although workmen an army of them
seemingly are hustling and bustling
about the court house every day It Is not
likely that the court rooms will be In a
condition that will admit of their occu
pancy for ut least another month. Tho
work hus at this time progressed so far,
however, that a fair Idea can be obtained
of the appearance of the rooms when com
pleted. The main court room will be tho
most lavishly decorated but the room that
will be occupied by the Superior court
will also present a very Inviting appear
ance. Old No. 2 court room, which will
hereafter be known at No. 3, will be
severely plain by comparison with the
other two rooms. The Interest the tax
payers take In the Improvements that are
going on Is shown by the large number of
men who dally visit the temple of Justice
to observe the progress that is being
made.
A case Is mentioned In the Medical Rec
ord which ought to have Interest for nil
dwellers in cities. It happened in New
York. A music teacher and a sewer In
spector occupied adjoining flats. The
sewer Inspector lacked an appreciative
eur for the sounds propelled by music pu
pils straining for high notes, and as a
buue he hired a hand organ chorus, also
beating time with a hammer on a -coll of
pipes. This led to litigation. The music
teacher sued the sewer Inspector In the
criminal courts, where the case was
thrown out. Then he sued him in the civil
courts, and there the action Is still pend
ing. We suspect there are several Scran
tonians living near music studios who will
await with eagerness the court's decision.
Recently a report got abroad that Dr.
Dunnell was engaged in recruiting a com
pany of soldiers to go to Cuba to aid the
patriots, ami scarcely a day has pussed
since that one or more men have not
culled at his ottlee to enlist. The doctor
says that there Is no truth In the report
concerning his Intending to take lighters
to Cuba, but he Is firmly of the opinion
that he could gather up enough men for
two companies Inside of two weeks rlKht
in this city. He ulso unhesitatingly avers
that if he was free to act he would do
this very thing and do it willingly.
Over In Hyde Park there Is a hnrdwaru
store and a wet goods store adjoining.
Just opposite the division line is a tele
graph pole. From a point near the afors
sald dividing line of the buildings to the
uforesuld telegraph pole a string was
strung and thereon the hardware mer
chant suspended a sign, "Headquarters
for Skates." The wet goods man, as
might be expected, made a vigorous kick,
and the sign Is not there now.
Talking of signs, this city can boast of
some daisies. Over on Cedar avenue
there Is a strip of tin on the front of a
building just at the head of nn alley way,
announcing "Pants Mended In the Rear."
Oukford court offers "Traneion Holding
and Dressmaking." Misspelled wording
of signs Is so common that it might not
be a bad Idea to adopt the Russian plan
of having an Inspector of signs, whose
duty It Is to proof read every business
announcement appearing on the public
thoroughfares.
There Is talk of the organization of a
Tom Moore club among the Scranton ad
mirers of Erin's sweet singer, and the
celebration of his anniversary In June
with a banquet ufter the manner In which
the Soots of this city honor the memory
of their revered bard. Hon. John E. Bir.
rett nnd Colonel F. J. Fltzslmmons, who
are great students and devotees of Moore,
are at the head of the movement, It Is said.

WHAT WE OUGHT TO OO.
From the New York Sun.
As President Monroe pointed out In his
first annual message, the United States,
"through every stage of the conflict" be
tween Spain and her American colonies,
had maintained an Imperial neutrality
between the combatant.', regarding the
contest as a "civil war" ..nd recognizing
the revolutionists as belligerents. Mr.
Cleveland might have given like recogni
tion to the Cubans a year ago and not a
word of protest would have been uttered
by any European power. No word of
protest could be uttered, ill view of the
fact that at the outset of our own civil
war. before the first battle of Bull Run
was fought, when It was as yet umie
termlned whether the civil war then
threatened, would not be over In. ninety
days, England, France, and Spain recog
nized the Confederates as belligerents.
In the light of the law of nations and of
the precedents made by our treatment of
other Spanish-American revolutionists,
ho possible objection can be made to the
recognition of Cubans as belligerents ex
eept upon the score of our own selfish In
terests, It being true, of course, that a
declaration of neutrality would expose
our vessels to the exercise of the right
of search by Spain. This was as true a
year ago us It is now, but seeing that for
a twelvemonth longer the Cubans have
proved their ability to withstand the
whole might of Spain, it seems that equity
requires us to go one step further, und
formally recognize the Independence
which the Cubans have shown themselves
qualified to maintain.
WANAMAKERISM EXPLAINED.
"Penn," In Philadelphia Bulletin.
The canvass which the Independents
made for Grow In Itwl does not compare
in thoroughness and resources with the
canvass which has been made this year
In the Interior for Wanamaker. No point
hus 'been left uncovered, no man who
could possibly be pulled away from his
allegiance to Quuy's leadership bus been
neglected, and no lar t amount of money
has ever been exptnded In a senatorial
contest In the memory of this generation.
The men who are most active in support
ing the 1'hiludclphla merchant are either
rich or old stagers In politics, and not In
frequently both. Thomas Dolan, with his
large knowledge of the springs of action
In Pennsylvania politics, his sagacious
diplomacy and his persuasive power as
an organizer anil provider, hns been a
potent force In organizing business men,
while young Frank, Willing Leach, who
knows something of1" every wheel and cog
In the state organization from stem to
stern, has ever since last summer given
up his days and nights to the Wunumuker
cause. These two men alone, with a can
didate like Wanamaker, would make a
pretty formidable team to buck against,
ami to them are to be added not only
an array of millionaires and mercantile
magnutes, but un assortment of veterans
in politics like Mugee, Martin and Losch.
Some of these managers, or their agents,
spent money liberally early lust spring In
the campaigns for nominating members
of the legislature, and It Is now charged,
although with much exaggeration, that
fully J7',ii0 hus been expended In the in
terest of the Philadelphia!!.
I! II- I!
The Wanamaker canvass, which vir
tually began nearly a year ago, was much
ridiculed at the start; but it has developed
Into a movement which Quay men confi
dentially admit will tax all their resources
to crush. Minus Governor Hastings, It
embodies all the elements of the combine
In city and slate In Its first fight on Quay;
men who have since become disgruntled
over Quay; the mercantile forces of Phila
delphia, some old-time anti-Quay reform
ers; strong moneyed Interests; and not
a few enthusiastic persons who regard
Wanamaker as a being who fulls hardly
short of divine Inspiration. The combina
tion, If a motley one, Is stronger thun the
combine of 1S95 In Its direct light against
Quay, and has been conducted with ex
trordinury skill and energy as regards
the circulation of money, literature and
scandal. But the effects of its work are
not so visible here us they are in the in
terior. The majority of the Philadelphia
delegation will be against Wanamaker;
only one of the dozen dally papers here,
notwithstanding the fact that they derive
a quarter of a million dollars In advertis
ing revenue from him, Is openly and un
reservedly supporting him, and that one
Is owned by his son-in-law; and even some
of the regulation anti-Quay forces tf
former years are now passive or luke
warm. Outside of the city there is con
siderable popular sentiment for the Phila
delphlan on the part of honest, homely
folk; there are plenty of editorials In the
country press which ring with tributes
and hosannas, whllo In New York the
raking lire which he was expected to
receive from the guerillas and sharp
shooters) of papers like the World, Sun
and Post has been Indefinitely postponed
since his advent into New York as one
of tho most desirable of their advertisers
In his magnificent revival of the A. T.
Stewart business.
THE llHIGHT LITTLE GIRL.
Her blue eyes they beam and they twin
kle, Her lips have made smiling more fair;
On cheek and on brow there's no wrinkle,
But thousands of curls in her hutr.
She's little you don't wish her taller;
Just half through the teens In her age;
And baby or lady to call her
(Were something to puzzle a sage!
Her wnlk Is far better than dancing;
She speaks as another might sing;
And all by an innocent chancing
Like lambkins and birds in the spring.
Unskilled In the airs of the city,
She's perfect lnnatural grace;
She's gentle, and thoughtful, nnd witty,
And ne'er spends a thought on her face.
Her face, with the fine glow that's In It,
As fresh as an apple tree bloom
And, oh! when she comes, In a minute,
Like sunbeams, she brightens the room.
As taking in mind as In feature,
How many will sigh for her sake!
I wonder, the sweet little creature,
What sort of a wife she would make?
