The Work of the Cabots.
'At "ttrMtol, EiiK.. nt Halifax. N. S.,
and at VllkeB-yarre Thursday exer
cises we're held In commemoration of tho
four hundredth anniversary of the dis
covery of the North American con
tinent by John Cabot. At the last named
place the'"WyomlnB Historical and Geo
logical society listened to the reading
of an Informing paper on the Cabots,
by Harry Hakes, M, D., a paper now
issued in pamphlet firm.
Dr. Hakes hazards no challenge of the
honor justly due Columbus, that of hav
ing first reached the outposts of tho
western hemisphere, but he points out
thfctt down to the first of 31ny, 1407, no
clrtfrfhad been made to go beyond the
limits which bounded the Gcnoan's dis
covery. All that had been discovered
by Columbus for Spain, ho says, was
Cuba, San Domingo, Jamaica, and a half
dozen smaller Islands In the Imme
diate vicinity. But the greed of Hcnrv
of England was fired by the reports
current concerning, Columbus' work,
and early in May, four hundred years
ago, another Genoan pushed his way
from known waters Into the unknown
deep. Tho Cabots, father and son,
sailed from Bristol in the good ship
llathew, with a ciew of eighteen men.
Their discovery of land took place on
the 24th of June, after they had sailed
2100 miles. They planted the flag of
England upon the land where their
shlps's prow touched, but saw no na
tive inhabitants. From their mention
of fogs and codfish (the latter so thick
that tho ship had trouble to sail
through them) It is inferred that thqj
landed at or near Cape Breton, New
foundland. For this service to civil
ization the elder Cabot was rewarded
by the magnificent present from the
King's own hand of $50, given that he
m'ght "take a spree."
Thf? Is the achievement which Cana
dian1; and Englishmen celebrated on
Thursday and wo quite agree with the
rjiliadel.ihia Press that Americans
hho-ild not remain in the lurch in tin
matier of commmciatlns the came
event, "s'nee." as It Jttly says, "what
ever creatness wo possess today Is due
to the fact that the Tnglish and oot
the Spanish type of civilization pn.
vailed en the northern continent. The
English idea was not the rapacious
exploitation of country and natives but
actual settlement, colonies and peace
ful commerce. Hence the domination
of Cabot as the discoverer of tho con
tinent for Henry VII stood England in
good stead a hundred years or so later,
or when the real colonization began,
and the foundations of the present
possessions of the people of the United
States wero laid along the coast from
New England to Virginia. England
and United States owe more to Calnt
than is admitted in history, and tin
tablet at Halifax and the proposed
monument at Bristol do him tardy jus
tice." The "reform" bills as passed at Har
rlsburg will not be recognized by their
parents, but. they suffice to show how
berloualy real reform is needed.
Mnrk Hanna.
Tho fact that ho Is a candidate for
election to the United States senate
has brought out the old, and now mus
ty, attacks upon Mark Hanna. Cari
caturists are again picturing him as a.
warty individual with a bloated anat
omy covered with dollar sIews and
with bags of "boodle" within his grasp
ready for use whenever occasion de
mands. Tho smile on his face is a
simian leer and tho whole aspect of
the man is coarse, repulsive and horri
ble." Instead of a seat in the senate
this representation of him suggests
thathe ought to be either In p. Jail or
in, an Insane asylum, and if a tenth of
the'-thlngs which his traducors print
about, his campaign methods bo true,
thejjail Jsjhe motfi appropriate desti
nation of the two.
Now what Is the truth? Go to
Cleveland and you Will And that Mark
Hanna.,came there poor and built him
self i up until he became one of the
recognized- leaders of the city. His
Vtyop3ie," and his enterprise have
gemmed the lakes with merchant sails,
threaded the streets of the city with
llnea'of transporntl6n by rail, estab
lished manufacturing industries, open
ed mines, built up banks and stores
and publics-Institutions and formed in
many castjve ipalnsay of charitable
and religious enidoavirs. Uetoro this
odious pluiperat hadMifted a' finger In
national politics ho .had by the sheer
foroeApt ,his dominating Individuality
climbed v'upij.fjrpiift trie bottom to tho
top Jbt tRWhiddor o'f 'private citizen
shlp'.and.';h'!ul',,won 'the refepect which
is over given 16- established merit. If
we cennure Mnrk Hanna. for succeed
Inir, what Incentive can we place be
fore' pur boys?
Ator a time Mark went into politics.
Why? Not for money. He had all of
that yhch. he needed and could more
wufljf get, more in familiar business
ohajyielfi timl through ways that were
new-tc? hlrnVlIo went Into politics on
a national scale tiecauee in the nearby
cltyt'Cftncm there dwelt n. man
whomTWir"inB'the years of -their Intl
macBtSrlt"llSnn.'i had learned to nd
mlr'ty.'fuiflH.n'.lrtMfrhose future he came
to plftco great .faith., It occurred to
Mark Hanna that WJIIlam McKlnley,
unassuming, patient, almost diffident
where his own interest wero concern
ed, needed a, promoter, and for tho
sheer Joy which ho felt hi pushing a.
good man along, he undertook that Job.
We know Oie result. But perhaps soma
of u don't stop to realize that when
Mark Hanna began the preliminary
work of organizing McKlnley's candi
dacy ho was forced to go in ncalnst
one of the most skilful and determined
combinations in the history of Ameri
can politics.
In tho somite of the United States
a cabal had formed for the double pur
pose of killing off Harrison nnd nom
inating Tom need. It Included tho
recognized leaders of the Republican
party such men as Allison, Davis,
Cnllom, Quay, Lodge nnd Chandler
end it had tho 'active support of the
Ropubllcan national organization; of
the state otganlzatlons In New York,
Pennsylvania, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa,
Minnesota and other important stales;
and cf most of the members of the
national house of representatives, who
wero for Reed because ho was their
Speaker. Numbered In the ramifica
tions of this formidable organization
wero many of tho most experienced,
adroit, and indefatlgnble practical poli
ticians of tho United States, yet Mark
Hnnna, the novice, went In against
these men and cleaned them out. It is
true that he had the aid of his candi
date's remarkable personal popularity;
but students of politics arc aware that
In contests against organizations or
"machines," as the Mugwump would
say, It takes more than popularity to
win. McKlnley's popularity helped;
but without Hanna's generalship it
would in nil probability havo made
small Impression nt St. Louis.
Then followed tho campaign. It 13
not necessary to go over that In detail.
It is enough to ray that whereas, at
tho beginning, it looked as if Bryan
would sweei the country, three montlm
of fighting with M:uk Hanna in com
mand resulted In a sweep the other
way. There have been charges of
fraud, bribery and corruption there
always are but not a charge has been
sustained; and in a. contest like last
year's we may be sure that if the
Popocratlc managers could have got
a hook Into Hanna they would have
yanked him for all they were worth.
That he used money Is not to be de
nied. Men who operato on the scale
that he is accustomed to don't squeeze
the penults when money means re
sults. That he used a cent dishonestly
or viciously Is not Indicated by any
fact revealed during the contest, nor
Is it rendered probable from the char
acter of tho man.
This, then, is tho individual who as
pires to an election as one of the sen
ators for Ohio. Self-made, resourceful,
successful; cool under fire, not rattled
by snapshooting, able to plan and to
execute is he to be damned because
he Is rich? Could a man with his
qualities keep from becoming rich in
this land of opportunities?
The Philadelphia Press, scanning
those padded expense acounts at Har
risburg, remarks that the governor has
an opportunity. "We should say he had,
and what Is more, we think he will
improve it.
m
ncKinley nnd Arbitration.
Thei recent report that President Mc
Klnley had begun the negotiation of a
new treaty of arbitration with Great
Britain had, it Is explained, this much
truth In it: In view of the fact that
the British minister at Washington,
Sir Julian Pauncefote, was about to
ictuici to England on a leave of ab
sence, the president some time ago in
formally suggested that he ascertain
whether his government would care to
join the United States in n joint dec
laration of confidence In the principle
of arbitration as the proper method of
settling international disputes. Should
Sir Julian bring back a favorable an
swer, ithe matter will bo laid before
tho senate and tho senate could not
well refuse Its assent.
It might bo inquired what practical
value such a declaration would possess;
but if it would not present substantial
affirmative advantages it would at
least prevent misconception of the
American people's attitude toward ar
bitration. That is to , say, it would
neutralize any Impression, which might
havo been conveyed by the senate's
rejection of the Pauncefote-Olney
treaty, that the American government
is hostile to the civilized process of
adjusting differences between nations.
While setting us right on a question
of principle It would at the same time
leave the hands of this government
free to take hold of each new issue
between England and the United States
in such manner as our own honor and
policy might dictate; In other words,
it would not tie us down in advance.
The negotiation In this direction is
yet in a primitive state, and It is pos
sible that nothing will come of it.
Yet it Is worthy of recollection that
Lord Salisbury once Insisted very
strongly that a general expression of
confidence in arbitration was all that
the necessities of tho situation re
quired from the two branches of the
Anglo-Saxon race. He then opposed
the omnibus treaty afterward signed
by Mr. Olney, nnd only yielded assent
when complications in Europe pointed
to ithe desirability of having the pos
sibility of friction with the United
States eliminated for a period of five
years. If his mind is where it was two
years ago he will eagerly acquiesce in
the latest overture from this bide; but
whether hu shall or not, the making of
the overture will cleanse our record
nnd put us In a position to urgo ar
bitration consistently in tho future.
An apologist for tliQ trustees of
Brown university explains that inas
much as they pay their good money to
support the university and pay tho pro
fessors' salaries, they have a right to
dictate what shall be taught within
the university's walU, They have, in
deed. They havo a right to turn tho
university into a kindergarten, for that
matter. But the point is not what
their legal right is, but what is wis
est, broadest and best. To fetter schol
arship nnd dwarf Independent Inves
tigation; to replaco candor with servil
ity; to lay down the rule that a con
viction held by the leaders In our ed
ucational life must bo withheld from
the wprjd until OK-ed y a board of
managing trustees may suit the Ideas
of tho gentlemen who "run" tho Rhode
Island "shebang" but It will never re
ceive ithe approbation of tho American
masses. Tho sooner this fact is real
ized nt Providence, R. I., tho better for
the prospects of Brown university.
The Elmhurst Signal celebrated Its
entrance upon the fifth year of Its ex
istence yesterday by issuing a hand
some lllustrnted anniversary number,
filled with nrtlstlo half-tone engrav
ings and Interesting reading matter,
giving evidence of the prosperity of
the Signal and the community In which
It is published. The number is neatly
printed and attractive throughout and
speaks well for tho thrift and enter
prise of tho beautiful home town where
so many Scrantonlans have located
suburban residences. Editor Harlow
Is to be congratulated upon the sup
port that has enabled him to make
continual improvements In his inter
esting paper.
The most sensible foreign comment
yet made on tho proposed annexation
of Hawaii comes from Italy, where
M. Cavalottl observes: "The Unite I
States are drawing to themselves new
populations by means of their good
law of political and personal liberty
and education and work, things which
are much more solid arguments than
rifles and guns." In other words, wo
don't have to fight for new territory;
it comes to us without the asking.
The leading railway nnd industrial
stocks are advancing In value, the
train movements show increased
freight traffic, the bank clearings are
expanding nnd .the man who cries
calnmlty with these evidences of pros
perity before him Is a demagogue and
the truth Is not in him.
The Toronto Globe praises Bryan
ptofusely; but in Its present humor the
Globe would probably like to see Bry
anlsm prevail In the United States.
The Hawaiian treaty Is only a straw,
hut it indicates that the president is
the actual as well as the nominal head
of this administration.
The member of parliament who
wants to know why England doesn't
grnb Hawaii can be informed in two
words: She "dassen't."

Gossip at
the Capital
Special to the Scranton Tribune.
Washington, June 23.
iFor the first time a member of the dip
lomatic corps of Washington has re
ceived a, diploma while on duty at his
post In this city. His name Is Mr. Soa-Ko
Alfred Sze, an attache of tho Chinese le
gation, and he received his sheepskin
from the Central High School today. The
"Afred" portion of his namo has been
adopted Flnce his arrival In this country
four years ago because It was moro In
keeping with the names used In America.
At the Chinese legation, however, he is
known as "Young Sze," In order to dis
tinguish him from an elder brother. He
la at present a few months over twenty
years of age. Ho Is tall, but rather
slight of build. His personality Is most
pleasing, and he has mado friends with
all with whom he has come in contact
and his popularity Is not due to mero
curiosity. He is universally respected
and admired for tho perseverance with
which ho has attacked his. studies, and
for the scholarly record of over i)S per
cent, out of a possible hundred which
he has made in his four years' cours?.
This high per cent, places him near tho
top of the list of graduates, and ahead
of over ono hundred students, who are
studying at their own schols, hi their
own land nnd among their own people.
When tho difficulties In his way are con
sidered, 'Mr. Szo has accomplished a re
markablo feat In entering a strange land
and making a higher record than native
students.
Mr. Sze came to this country four
years ago as a student translator for the
recent minister, Yarg Yu, now at Ut.
Petersburg. He was then but sixteen
years of age, but so well advanced was
he that Yang Yu recommended to tho
home government that he bo made an at
tache. This ofllce he has now hold for
almost two years. When Mr. Yu de
parted recently for his new post at St.
Petersburg he was -desirous of having
Mr. Szo accompany him, but "Alfred"
was very anxious to remain at Washing
ton until rocelvlng his high school di
ploma. Next fall he expects to enter ono
of tho leading colleges, and after taking
a full course, to study law. This will
necessitate his remaining In America for
at least seven years more, and at tho end
of that time he will return to China and
will probably bo In line for tho diplo
matic service. He will be 27 years of ago
when he returns to his home near Shang
hai, after an absence of eleven years,
but he will be fitted by education and
training to All almost any diplomatic po
sition that may be offered to him. Mr.
Sze's early education was obtained at
Shanghai, whero ho attended St. John's
college, an American institution. His
knowledge of English was obtained at
this school, so that when ho landed at
San Francisco he understood more Eng
Islh than the averago European tourist.
At the Central High School, which ho
entered within a few months after ar
riving in America, he has pursued a clas
sical course, taking nmong other studies,
Latin, French, German, English mathe
matics and the college course In physics.
Ho has been eipeclally prollclent In
French and Latin, and declares ho loves
the French language almost as much as
his native 'tongue. German ho dislike?,
on account of the hnish accent, although
he has mastered Its dialect very well.
While no complete canvass has been
made to ascertain the nationality of men
employed in tho United States navy, a
naval ofllclul said today enough Informa
tion was In tho possession of the de
partment to justify thq assertion that 3U
per cent, aro foreigners. "We havo made
great progress, however," he continued,
"in Americanizing tho navy during the
last few years. Threo years ago over 60
per cent, of tho seamen on American
naval vessels wero foreigners. The gain
In Americans has, it Is true, been made
principally through naturalization, but
oven that Is a source of gratification.
Tho trouble Is not so much In tho diffi
culty of getting recruits, us It Is In the
course walch congress Is pursuing to
wards tho nuvy. The enlisted force of
the navy now amounts to 10,000 men. It
was that when we had nothing but a lot
cf old tuba. No increase hus been alowed
since we begun bulidlng our new war
ships. We had the greatest trouble In
apportioning a sufficient number of men
to put the Iowa In commission. We now
havp on hand seven new gunboats which
we cannot pot in commission for tho lack
of men. At present these gunboats
would be of great uso to the navy."
Tho Republicans of long scrvlco In the
senate aro anything but pleased with
Mr. Foraker for making publlo tho
secrets of tho conferences to which he
has been Invited. Tho Ohio statesman's
remarks- concerning tho agreements on
wool and tho subsequent violations, as
he charged, undoubtedly hs stirred up a
feeling on his slds of tho chamber that
will not bo forgotten In months. It is'
quietly whispered around thut tho older
heads will bo very careful In future about
letting Mr. Foraker Into tho Inner coun
cils of the leaders, unless a pledge can
bo extracted from him not to talk. In
public. Gossips at this llmo cannot help
tef erring 'to tho fact that several months
ago Senator Foraker was Invited to tho
stato department to Inspect tho corre
spondence relating to Cuba, with the
Idea that ho would merely use the inror
matlcn personally, but the first thing the
ofllclals knew ho made a lengthy speech
In tho senate, In which ho made public
certain things President McKlnley and
Secretary Sherman wanted to remain in
the archives until they were ready to
make 'them public,
Tho assertions which havo been mado
to the effect that the president Intended
to send to congress, an soon as the tar
iff bill has passed the senate, a message
recommending the appointment of a
monetary commission, are doubtless
true, but It will bo one thing for tho
president to recommend nnd another lor
congress -to act. Tho passage of tho
necessary law through the house is, of
course, a mere matter of form, so that
tho assuranco which Speaker Heed has
given to tho president of co-operation
will be realized, so far as the lower
branch Is concerned. In the senate,
however, there will be a different ta'.e to
tell.
"There will be no monetary commission
authorized at this session of congress,"
raid Senator Jones, of Arkansas, today.
"You can put that down for a fact. I tio
not care whether we stay until next De
cember: there will be no legislation of
that kind et this session."
A majority of the Democrats echoed
Senator Jones' statement. "If an attempt
Is made to force a monetary commission,"
said Senator Gorman, "wo will bo here
In the dog days and," he added, signifi
cantly, "perhaps later."
Rural free delivery is a question which
Is giving tho postofllco department offi
cials much concern. Superintendent
Machen In speaking of the subject said:
"Rural free delivery has been a success
In the districts where It has been tried,
but Its general application to the wholo
United States would bo a great waste of
money. A calculation of the cost of such
an extension shows that the expeii3o
would be between $50,000,000 and GO,000,
000. It undoubtedly would be worth the
expenditure In districts where the popula
tion Is reasonably dense, but In some of
the western states, where tho distances
to be covered aro abnormal. Its Inaugura
tion would bo inadvisable."
The fight for political supremacy In
Ohio this year promises to cause one of
the liveliest campaigns in tho history
of that state, or any other state, for that
matter. Ohio has always been noted for
its hot politics. The contest this year
will bo particularly Interesting from tho
fact that Internal dissensions In both
parties will cut quite a ilgure. Senator
Hanna will be bitterly opposed for re
election by members of his own party.
So will John R. McLean, the Democratic
aspirant for senatorial honors. At this
writing McLean seems to have a bit tho
best of the family fight, but he will be
fought tooth and nail .by the friends of
Paul J. Sorg, who also wants to come to
the senate. Hanna will be opposed by
tho Kurtz faction which has so long
dominated the Republican politics In that
state. The rcsut of the battle between
the Republicans and Democrats, there
fore, Is awaited with more than passing
interest. .The triumphant party will no
doubt owe much to the internal dissen
sions of Its rival.
It Is understood that Senator Faulkner,
of West Virginia, v. ill not be a candidate
for re-election, even'lf his party is suc
cessful In earning tho legislature next
year. iHls reason for withdrawing from
politics Is that ho wants to devote more
time to his law practice. There will be
no lack of Democratic candidates for
Fau'ikner's senatorial shoes. Ex-Senator
Camden, father-in-law of Senator El
kins, Is nnxlous to return to public life,
and ho will go into the campaign next
year with moro or less vigor. John Mc
Graw, of Grafton, ono of the largest land
owners In the state, will also be a candi
date to succeed Faulkner. West Virginia
Republicans in Washington assert that
tho Little Mountain state Is out of tho
Democratic column for good, and mat
for the first time in its history it will
have two Republicans In tho United States
senato after Faulkner's term expires in
1E90.
HAD BETTKU HE CLOSED.
Rochester Democrat and Chronicle.
It Is said that years ago General Wood
ford made a speech about Cuban affairs
to which the Spanish papers object. It Is
to be said of our representation at the
court of Madrid what was said of our
representation to Constantinople, that no
American worthy of honor can be found
who has not denounced tho policy of that
government. If no one who disapproves
of Weylerism in Cuba is to be received by
Spain, then the Spanish mission may as
well bo abandoned, for this country has
no rewards for those who apologize for
or excuse the bloody miscreant who has
been shooting and starving a multitude
of Innocent persons in that Island.
