Can anybody Inform us why tho lnw ot Pennsylvania should prolilblt the snle of oleomargarine when It permits tho sale ot arsenic, strychnine, cigar ettes and rum? That Telephone Franchise. Sulpct council acted widely Thursday night when It resolved to take time to consider the ordinance granting cer tain Important and valuable privileges to the Lackawanna Telephone company. For aught we know to the coutiary, this new concern Is what It purports to be namely, a buna llde company willing to do In good faith all that It agrees to do In return for the privileges It seeks. Hut If this be true, It ought to court ample Investigation and be glad to have Its ordinance held open for public consideration and discussion. In many places where competitive telephone franchises have been gi anted on similar representations, the result lias been disastrous to the public. AVo could cite a number of cities where the experiment of cheap telephone service, after being conducted for a time at a loss, had llnally lo be abandoned. Theie, the publto in the long run paid for the failure, either through demoralization ot Its service or through subsequently Increased lates. In other places where such franchises liavn been secured as a speculation, the public also has been mulcted, after the fashion of Its expor- lence In this city In the case ot tho Valley Passenger stieet lallway or dinance. "We think wo voice the opin ion of nine .Scrnntonlans out ot every ten when we say that councils should not again lend themselves to private speculation In public privileges. AVe trust that that kind of swindling is played out In tills neighborhood. If, however, careful Inquiry shall dis close that the Lackawanna Telephone company is a genuine and an honest business enterprise, holding out the promise of cheapened rates In good faith and prepared to give the city suf ficient guarantee that It is not the vic tim of an iridescent dream, then It ought to be possible so to frame the or dinance that the public's Interests will lu any event receive ample protection. Will it be possible, we wonder, for railroad Inlluences at "Washington to defeat the propositon to authorize def inite surveys and estimates for a sys tem of ship communication through the great lakes and to tho Atlantic? Tills is a subject In which all Americans should be Interested. It is big with future significance. Tlte Nicaragua Cnnnl Job Again. Speaker Reed puts his arbitrary pow er to most excellent use when he de cides that the present Nicaragua canal bill shall not run the gauntlet of the present house. As the bill stands it Is nothing less than an attempted gigantic steal. It provides that the government shall subscribe for $70,000,000 of the stock and guarantee the bonds of the existing company to the amount of $100,000,000. The company figures that tho canal can be built for $12.1,000,000 at the most; but the government's own en glneers.afteracareful examination, say it will cost $175,000,000 additional, at the least. In Its practical aspect, there fore, the bill now before congress means that the United States In return for the privilege of naming five of the company's eleven directors, shall by Its Indorsement make marketable a pil vate corporation's now almost worth less stock and Involve itself so far that if the canal Is ever built, it will have to build it. It would be cheaper for Uncle Sam to buy these speculators off with n lump sum and then go to work on the canal on his own terms. "We agree with Senator Turple, of Indiana, that the abstract question of the desirability of a translsthmlan ship canal between the Americas, and under the control of the United States, Is entirely different from the proposition which now confronts congress to use the credit of this nation to pull a lot of stranded speculators out of a hole. AVe believe In the wisdom ot a canul under American control and at a suitable time would favor the direct appropria tion of money to this end. There Is, however, no Immediate hurry. Under the Monroe doctrine no foreign power can step in ahead of us. And In the meantime It would be far wiser for congress to save the public funds for application on the new national debt which Is Inherited from Democratic administration and to other pressing domestic purposes than to think of tap ping Its depleted bill for the benefit ot a down-at-the-heel, speculative corpor ation. At least that is how the matter seems to us. The Klmhurst Signal suggests that to avoid complications the proposed sol diers' and sailors' monument be locat ed In Rlmhurst. AValt until Scranton annexes Elmhurst. The Outlook for Peace. The man who thinks that an arbitra tion treaty with the United States will cause Great Britain to discontinue the fortification of her Canadian frontier and inspire her to have no further hankerings after good coaling stations In the North Atlantic takes a great deal for granted. So does the man who thinks that when the pending negotiation Is llnally ratified, It will no longer bo necessary for this government to invest In armor plate, to plun additional warships or to buy cannon, shot and shell for use In emergency ulong our exposed coasts. There has been some figuring on the great economies of arbitration, but It has been chiefly speculative. It Is true that several of the foremost powers of Europe ai-o spending at present ubout ten dollars on standing armies to every dollar spent on education. Such a con dition, of course, is Indefensible In the ory, yet It seems to be Indispensable In piacrjee, and we must confess that we cannot exactly see how arbitration Is to affect 'the situation for several gen erations to come. AVe favor the Olney treaty and do not underestimate Its moral sig nificance, yet there need not bo any raising of false hopes In the premises. Its chief prac tical merit Is that It affords a dig nified way to the settlement of minor disputes concerning the ownership of property. In time this may so lessen International asperities growing out of such disputes ns to Induce the arbitra tion of more weighty Issues and there by reduce by a considerable percpntngo the chances ot war. AVhen this Is said, though, nil Is said. In the meantime, congress will do well to go right on with navy building and with the fortification of our coasts. As an Insurance against loss, n good battleship and a first-rate mortar gun are worth several gross ot peace treat ies as human nature now stands. , The time will come when J. Donald Cameron will be better appreciated by the dispassionate Judgment of his coun trymen than he Is today. And the most creditable of all his public actions will be his determined but unsuccessful ef fort to aid the cause of the republic of Cuba. More Facts About Cuba. We gave In yestet day's Tribune some facts as to the natural fertility and pro ductiveness of the Island of Cubit. AVe now invite attention to the presentment of facts, In another place, concerning Spain's extortions from Cuba during the past 300 years. It shows, from the ofliclal records, that in a century Spain lias withdrawn from tho treasury of Cu ba for purposes wholly foreign to Cuban Interests, a total of $137,000,000, not saying anything about the thefts unil extortions of Individual Spaniards In Cuba, which would doubtless aggregate half as much moie. This means that Spain has olllclally stolen $1 a year from each Inhabitant of Cuba, white and bluck, over and above the costs of tho provincial government. The per capita tax In Cuba just prior to the outbieak of the present revolu tion was $1C.3S, and this was exclusive of municipal dues. At that time tho an nual "budget," or amount of taxes col lected from 'Cubans, was $26,73:1,322, of which only $771,125 went for Internal Improvement, while the whole balance of $25,002,197 went to pay Interest on the Inordinate debts accumulated during Spanish overlordshlp; to support the army and navy und to pay the salaries of Spanish ofllclals. As a. sample of the lattei It may be worth while to remark that Cienoral Weyler receives a direct Income from the Cuban treasury larger than the pay of our president, and If ull stories are true, probably pockets as much more en the side. At the present time the Cuban debt represents a mortgage of $201 upon tho earning capacity of every inhabitant ot Cuba, with a yearly Interest charge of $11, to say nothing about repaying the principal. That in face of such villain ous financiering Spain should squeeze Cuba for home needs whenever tightly pressed amounts simply to International highway robbery. Our own forefathers rebelled from tho domination of Great Britain because they were taxed with out being represented in the tax-levying assembly. Cuba has this grievance against Spain, but it is a mild one in comparison with the other Items In Spain's chapter of abuses of power. That the fairest island in all the world should be kept for four hundred years by Spanish rule In the shadow of medi aevallsm, head over heels In Ignorance, superstition and debt, and ever and anon turned by Spanish brutality Into a shambles or Into a theater of unspeak able brutalities practiced by Spanish soldiers on inoffensive native women, constitutes an emphatic reproach on civilization and a blistering shame on the authorities at Washington who are reported to be negotiating to prolong Spalns' Infamous swaj In Cuba. The opinion of ex-Senator Kdmunds on the arbitration treaty In our judg ment disposes of the one point of possible- objection to an early ratltlcation of that Instrument. He shows that the treaty covers differences "In respect of which either of the high contract ing parties shall have rights against the other." The Monroe doctrine Is not a "right" but a "policy" growing out . our peculiar environment; it is some thing touching our general security and uffecting that Instinct of self-protection which is the paramount law. AVe would not arbitrate it any more than a man would arbitrate whether a burglar might take his life or a tramp do vio lence to Ills wife or daughter. No treaty and no nation could enforce an arbitration of such a principle, and it la Idle to conjecture such a contingency. So far as the main point is concerned It makes very little (inference what has occurred lu the past with reference to the management of the state treasury. The past in any tvont is beyond recall. What Is needed now Is a law providing for the future; 'one which will make it compulsory for the state treasurer to keep the funds of the state In safe de positaries and turn over to the state reasonable Interest thereon. There can be no factional advantage In such a bill and politics should not hinder its way through the legislature. From the Sun we learn that the gov ernment printing oflice at AVashlngton last year used 5,457 tons of paper, which went Into 1,255,451 bound volumes, 0,401, 003 pamphlets and speeches and 11,176, 105 copies of bills and resolutions. AV'hat a pity that so much of this good white paper was daubed with Ink to no con ceivable purpose. If tho authority of this nation Is to be asserted at all In the war between Spain and Cuba, how much better It would bo to make one clean Job of It by annexing the atrlcken Island to the United States and thus affording Its Impoverished Inhabitants the one pos sible assurunee of better times to come. By all accounts Governor Tanner of Illinois has, In the triumph of "Hilly" Mason, received his first public lesson concerning the difference between a governor und a boss. Let Governor Dushnell of Ohio profit by his example. It Is lo be hoped that tho now sen ator from Illinois will make no effort to adapt himself to senatorial tradi tions. "Billy" Mason as the frolic some, good-natured, warm-hearted person of yoro Was one amonrr ten thousand. His wit had an Attic flavor and his humor a Llncolnlnn pungency rind directness that wore worth any quantity of ponderous seri ousness. The United States senate would be all the better for a little of his cheery sunshine and straightforwardness. There Is a line tone to the language of Genernl Callxto Garcia when he says; "I nm more cunvlnced than 'ever that we Cubans do not need help from any other country to achieve our inde pendence. AVe enn fight tho Spaniards alone and drive them out of tho Island, notwithstanding their superiority In numbers and resources. Interference on tho part of the American nation Is, therefore, unnecessary. AVo can have the glory of being an American coun try that can win Its freedom without any aid from abroad. AVhat we have a right to demand from America Is fair neutrality. If America would permit our friends to send us supplies without molestation, just us the captain general could do for his army, within a few months not an Inch of Cuban soil would be under the flag of the king of Castile." The general's point Is a fair one and the rebuke which ho administers to us by inference Is every syllable deserved. An excellent Illustration ot the right man In the right place is shown these days In the pages of Leslie's AVeekly since It passed under the editorial con trol of John Gilmer Speed. Mr. Speed has Infused a degree of vivacity and up todatenesslnits text and pictures which Is rapidly carrying It to the front of American Illustrated journalism. It is now a journal ell worth reading. In the opinion of the Olyphant Record, "no one could be nominated for governor who would command more universal support" than AVI1 llam Connell. The knowledge of such u fact would be worth more than any olllce. Judging from some recent court de liverances, we Infer that In the eye of the law a man's fitness for Jury service Increases In exact proportion with his inability to comprehend evi dence. Mr. Bryan says he expects to stand or fall In public estimation according to his Ideas, not nccordlng to his oratory. In that case he had better get ready to do some more falling. When "Billy" Mason, Illinois new senator, was in the house, he was its foremost comedian. Can the staid sen ate tolerate a wit? Titled foreigners who want American heiresses like the Princess Chlmay can have 'em, and good riddance. i Alas, poor Peffer. The senate might well have spared a better man. L 'An L7 mP 1 M-,, T U '3 N Q I must confess that I am becoming somewhat nervous at the terrible things i revealed by the men ot wma Jo science of today. A few J ;T y years ago one could ven ' f ture out uuon the street and enjoy the beauties of nature and inhalo Cod's pure air with no thought of the dangers that threaten us on ev ery hand, accoidlng to the local and other scientists who see strange things of an alarming character ev erywhere. In spite ot man's efforts to live out his allotted days.'I nud that he is confronted with awful dangers In the form of blooiMap pers, lung-borers, braln serapers, bone-eaters, spine-warpers, and a million other unclassi fied germs that aro bent upon destruction. The germ discoverers offer no ray of hdpi for poor humanity. When reiul- CONSUMPTIA'L, Ing accounts of the ler MAY BIS. rors It makes one oftin marvel at his own ex istence. It Is stated that a prominent cltl. zen of New York has become so thorough ly agitated by the germ craze that he will not touch even a knob with his bare hands without first dusting olf the microbes with his pocket handkerchief. It has be come hazardous to accept money on ac count of the dangers that may lurk on UNCLASSIFIED SALIA'A. the face of tho note or coin. Most of ns, however, are still wllllnsr to take some risks, In spite of warnings. Some time ago tho man ot convivial habits thought himself secure, as whiskey was regarded as a sure agent of death to microbes. Now It has been discovered by Professor Coles that while whiskey will, to a certain extent, cause the ordinary bacelll! to have that tired feel ing, whiskey Itself contains a germ that has more horns and teeth than almost any diminutive terror on m& imzr:. j?

Of course, a germ can never die. They may be ground, baked and frozen, but they still live, according to the man ot mystery and science. The most severe blow that the mlcrobo alarmist has ever received was the state ment made recently that a germ aided man's digestion. Some of the sorrow ful havo never entirely recovered from the shock. The .majority, nevertheless, have rallied and are ready to aver that the germ of digestion Is of small consequence when compared to the awful specimens that are dally consuming us. I am begin nlng to believe that we are but on the eve of the conn revela tions; thnt It may yet' be demonstiated that there Is n mi crobe escaping from the think tanks uf many of our restless citizens that bids fair to Increase the army at cranks to nn' alarming degree In the near future. It Is possible also ORATORY. that the musical tho oratotlcal, and the terpslchorean microbe may exist and flourish unseen about us. It may be that men will be forced to be come politicians, and seek for appoint ments against their will, all through the Invisible germ contracted by association with the ambitious or from minute parti cles that float on- the breeze. The miser ly man may become generous; tho slan derer may speak well of his neighbor, and the landlord be brought to a realization that his tenant's house needs hew paper on the walls without asking. Who knows? If we can only keep off the present ter lors what possibilities are before us! AVhat triumphs for surviving men' of science! But let us pause for breath. AN EXCELLENT PRECEDENT. From tho Pittsburg Times. The Republican members of the Illi nois legislature established' a precedent the other evening In caucusing for a nom inee for United States senate which, if followed, will have an Important influence upon future bodies that assemble togeth er to deliberate upon similar matters. They refused to permit any nominating speeches. This, If It should become a general practice, will bo hard on the ora tors, but it will minister greatly to the comfort of all who attend political con ventions. AVe all know tho nominating orator. AVe have endured him many a tline. Assembled after an exciting cam paign, and anxious to ascertain the result, he steps between the Impatient audience and the decision and sometimes there are a dozen of him and every word is torture. lie usually begins back somewhere about the time of the Trojan war. After a chapter of ancient history, he drops Into biography, and followed by a detail of tho achievements of all the great men he has had time to read up about, he delivers an Invocation to the ghosts of dead party leaders. Here he lightens the gloom a little by throwing In an Irish dialect story and then goes Into tho statistics anil history of the commonwealth dr nation. Upon concluding this ho begins to swell and to pull out the loud stops, he enlarges on tho momentous character ot the occa sion and shows how tho fate of the coun try Is trembling In the balance. It is a crisis that demands the services of a man of colossal Intellect, a phenomenon of statesmanship. He builds such a man right then and there. He combines In him the strength of a Hercules, the beauty of an Adonis, the genius of a Bacon and the wisdom of a Solomon, and, giving this creation the name of his candidate, with every stop open and every pipe roaring, the hurls him upon the audience and sinks back exhausted to enjoy the applause which Is given because he has concluded. If the Illinois Republicans are successful In making an end of such performances they will deserve the everlasting thanks of all whose duty or Inclination leads them to attend nominating conventions. AND (iltOVEK DOES NOTHING. From the Philadelphia Ledger. For pure brutality and reckless waste of human life It would be dlllleult to match Weyler's order that all men not Spanish soldiers who are caught one mile away from a fortified city shall be killed. It is hard to believe that In this age of the world a nutlon calling Itself civilized can countenance the taking of human life without Justification or even the form of a trial, but there seems to be no reason to doubt the report, and It Is quite in keeping with the general tone of reports of Spanish cruelty In Cuba. Weyler was called "the Butcher" before ho rose to his present rank and he seems determined to sustain his reputation. The consequence of his order can be well Imagined. With tho men dead, tho crops destroyed, tho cattle slaughtered, nothing but starva tion Is left for the women and children. The plague of small-pox Is ravaging the Island, too, and thus the dreadful state ef affairs In India, at which the world turns sick, is repeated hi Cuba on a smaller scale, but with little If any less Intensity. "EXCUl'TIONAMiY TINE." From the Philadelphia Ledger. Tho Scranton Tribune, which deservedly holds an Influential position among thu newspapers of Interior Pennsylvania, has Issued an exceptionally fine almanac for the current year. As the Tribune takes an active part in political affairs, It Is quite appropos that its almanac should be devoted largely to such matters. To the politician and, Indeed, all who take an Interest In public concerns, this "political handbook," as the publishers call It, will be especially valuable. But there aro other things besides polities treated, and this will make It welcome In the house holds of all Tho Tribune's leaders. HILLY. Have you heard the news from Spring Held? Greatest triumph ever seen They have nominated Mason and have smashed tho old "machine." They have plainly told the nation that this country doesn't need A senate stuffed with mllllonalies and statesmen gone to seed.

Long legs attract attention, but a "long head" counts for more. Our "Billy" Isn't very rich,' so far as dol lars go. But he owns a mine of useful things a statesman ought to know. He has u host of loyal friends, and calls them all by name, And though ho'a now a senator ho is "Billy" Just the same. They say he Isn't "dignified."
