The District Attorneyship. 7n a county having tho rnmplex pop ulation elements of Lackawanna the necessity for iirnmptltuds and energy In th'- district attorneyship Is uncom monly urgent. The nlllco requires that Its occupant shall be a Rood student of the luw; but even more important than this, It mak-s requisition for leady tact, sagnplty, nerve and shrewd ness. The dutiiH of the district attor neyship grow moro exacting year by year, and there Is material economy to th county in granting to the ac ceptable occupant o cordial re-election, mnce to bieak In a new man consumes usually one-half his term. When the Uepubllcan convention re nominated District Attornpy John It. Jones It ('.Id ?o In remembrance of the notably good wink which had charac terized his first term. Commendation of this work Is spread on numerous public retards and only a few days ago it was again formally uttered by the grand jury. A study of the statistics of criminal court during tin past three years will sustain the assertion that not since the organization of the coun ty Government has the prosecution of criminals been more actively pushed in Iackawanna than under the official fnuro of the district attorney who Is now indorsed by his party for re-election. Mr. Jones, moreover, presents numer ous personal claims to the favor o the electors at the polls. His enter prise nnd liberality arc proverbial and continually manifest themselves, in various directions. Into whatever ho undertakes Mr. Jones throws his whole heart. In common parlance he would bo described an a "hustler," and of the type that tlio American public some how instinctively admire. AVcll Is It remembered with what Ingenious nov elty of method he made known his can didacy for this olllce three years ago; and tlio example thus given of his en terprise and cleverness has since been replaced by many others. He does not follow, he establishes precedent; and the popularity, which he lias won in dicates that his methods command pub lic nppioval. Tin; re-election of John II. Jones wo liijlleve to be assured. Stated In another way, Low nnd Ills lirowd would rather scalp Piatt than Tammany. The Right Kind of a Juror. The allusion In tlio court proceed ings of yesterday's Tribune to the ac tion of Juror Motile In asking the court for certain Information relative to a pending case dwelt upon the amusing side of this somewhat unusual Inci dent, but there can be no doubt that If jurors would more frequently imitate Mr. Monle's example until they are absolutely clear in mind concerning knotty points in the pleading and In the evidence, the result would upon the whole be beneficial. In faltness to Mr. Monle we desire to tsay that it was not the Intent of our reference to his action to belittle him. He spoke, as lie explains, under ho misapprehension that both nttorncys had rested, nnd consequently his Inter ruption wns a little out of the ordinary; hut In any event his purpose was an honest desire to see Justice done and that Is the kind of purpose which Is needed in tlio Jury box In every court in tho country. AVe honor him for hav ing had the courage In call for addi tional light on the points at issue, and wo commend his example to Jurors in general. It l.s proper that the wages of Gen eral "Wevler's sins should bo ofllclal death. The way of this transgressor ought to be hard. A Comparison. Professor James Bryce, author of the "American Commonwealth" and now a visitor In tho United Btates, offers .torno valuable and timely opinions conorrnlng tho charter of greater New York. Among other things ho says: "The first mayor should bo a man of unusual capacity successfully to put In operation tho complicated machinery. Ho should possess cxccutlvo capacity of a high order, for ho will find himself Bor?Jy tried at first. In a cosmopolitan city like Now York, whero there are conflicting Interests, prejudices and customs arlfclng out of racial character istics, tho dllllcultlcs arising in tho Buitable administration of tho munici pality are naturally greater than in tho moro homogenous great cities of Eng land. The success of municipal gov ernment In New York will depend upon the strength' nnd tho nearness to unity of public opinion. When tto people rise up nnd not only demand but Insist on a businesslike administration ot civ ic uffalrs the result will bo apparent at onqo," The dellnltlon thus presented of tho qualities neded In tho llrnt mayor of the enlarged etly states Mccuratoly the. equipment possessed by General Ilen Jainln V. Tracy, the Uepubllcan nonit nci. He Is moro tluin a theorist like Mr. Low. Ho Is a man whose abilities and power are pre-eminently practi cal. Mr. Low has shown great aptitude for dealing with theoretical problems, Is strong oh an essayist mid lecturer hut In the practical affair's of life his success has heon less conspicuous. As tlio manager of his father's Immense tea Importing business It Is said that in one year, nfb;r finding the business ot tho concern on a paying basis, ho left It with a deficiency exceeding $1,000,000. Again ns the president" ot Columbia university ho entered upon tho discharge of a trust which was clear of debt and so managed it that today Its Indebtedness is reported to lie jn.000,000. On the other hat.d, Clonwal Tracy Is said by ex-Presldcnt Harrison, In whoso cabinet ho served four years ns secre tary of tlio navy, to possess exicutlve abilities of an uncommonly high order, si high, Indeed, that General Harrison regards him as pre-eminently fitted for cillur the mayoralty of New i'ork or the presidency of tlio United States. His wealth and professional standing were not Inherited but have hern sclf won In the stress of a competition which hns broadened and prnctlcallzed his powers to an exceptional degree. That a unity ot respectable public opin ion has not attended ills candidacy has not been his fault but the iuult ot the Immediate circle of Mr. Low's advisers who, from tlio Hint, insisted upon push ing the latter gentleman's candidacy In such a way as would most certainly alienate from Its support all who value regularity in Uepubllcan organization and co-operntlon hetwiecen municipal and national political forces. There Is within the territory proposed to be in corporated in greater Nov. York no man of intelligence; nnd information who questions G?ncral Tracy's fitness for the arduous duties of tho first may oralty of tho enlarged municipality, but there are many thousands ot emi nent and respectable citizens within that territory whon I'litertaln serious susplcfons of Mr. Low's quallllcatlon on the practical side for that supremely lmportnnt trust. They have respect for him as a student and thinker and cheerfully recognize his Integrity and sincerity liut they are not at ease as to his equipment for tho everyday cares and prob lems of tho olllce, nor does his record tend ti allay their apprehensions. ' We make no apology for considering in Pennsylvania a campaign primarily Important in and gsrmano to New York, for in its larger reach this sub ject Is of national consequence. Wo slnceiely trust that tlio liettM judg ment of at least a plurality of tho C.'O, 000 voters comprehended within tlio limits of the new municipal empire will yet rescue the city from Tammany or Hryanlsm and put its government in the safe custody of tlio Republican, party. It will be Seth Low's own fault if Henry George and Cryanism capture Greater New York, how lias proved himself the dlsunlfylng force, and it ia liis self-conceit alone that menaces tho cause of good government. Need of Slate Police. A subject of Importance which lias already received discussion in Tho Tri bune is intelligently elaborated In the Philadelphia Press. We refer to the need of more certain police protection for sparsely settled rural communities. Our contemporary refers to tho fact that within a fortnight two helpless old men representing opposite ends of the state ono residing near Erie, the other near Norristown have been at tacked, plundered and beaten by gangs of rufllans, ono of tlio victims having since died from tho Injuries received; and It continues: "The fate these old men suffered is one to which any man or woman In any lonely house In the state Is liable. Such an occurrence could not take place In Kngland, Fiance or Germany, It might In Spain, South Italy or Greece, because these are countries with bandits, and tho deliberate, planned torture of men nnd women to force them to give up their money is tlio work not of ordinary criminals but of banditti In other words, ot men who have got past the skulking habit of tho ordinary criminal and who or ganize in a permanent gang which takes time to its work, does.it with system and terrorizes a neighborhood. "Our states In the past have been free from this evil, but here, as in other parts of the country, tho. state lias shamefully neglected the protec tion or tlio village, the farm and the solitary dwelling. It provides no police, it gives no patrol to tho country road and it leaves men, women nnd families as open to attack as In tho Jungle. Our immigration bus for a decade past come from countries like Calabria and Sicily, rife with banditti. As a natural re sult of our defenseless lack of the or dinary protection ot civilization, this Immigration furnishes tho material for banditti. This is not all. In some quarters, as In Southern Indiana, ban dits have been developed by the ab sence of the due protection of the state in a county with a pure American pop ulation. For years, around Versailles, where the recent lynching of five men took place, an organized band has rob bed and plundered without arrest, in dictment, trial or punishment. " TSandlt' has a strange, foreign un American sound, hut ages of experi ence havo shown that if rural districts are left unprovided with an cillclont, organized, omnipresent police, In duo time local organized bands will begin to plunder, torture and worse. Experi ence, too, hus proved In hundreds of instances that when tills sort of thing onco takes root it will tako years to destroy It. This state, like others, by neglecting tho provision of a statu police to protect tho smail towns, vil lages and farms, is running a gravo risk of tho growth of conditions which may tako a generation to remove and reform. "It is motiBtrous that a great stato with abundant means should leave Its citizens unprotected over great stretches of its territory simply be causo they are farms, inhabited by farmers leading lonely lives. In the cities tho men and women of this stato aro safe enough. They have a right to be as safe In solitary homes any where. They will bo when there Is k state police, mounted and organized, patrolling every country road." This presentment of the mattcr.whllo eminently true, docs not exhaust tho nrguments for such a force of state patrolmen. Labor troubles, Impas sioned mob uprisings of nil kinds, af ford frequent work for a quickly mobilized body of regular police and the National guard, while worthy of all praise, Is an cxpenslvo and sometimes an unwieldy substitute. The Philadelphia Times, with char acteristic generosity, heads with a $.0 subscription a list for the purpose of pnying tho $300 lino levied upon Cap tain AViborg, In addition to a 16-months term In tho penitentiary for having been caught while conveying aid from a T'nlted Stutcs port to the patriots ot Cuba. Captain Wlborg, who com manded the filibustering vessel Horsa, has served his term In Jail, but is now confined nddltionnlly in default ot tho line. Hero certainly Is a rhanco for American sympathy for the Cuban cause to assume a practical form. And now It nppears from tho olilclnl returns that tho antl-gambllng consti tutional nmendment recently voted up on In New Jersey wns successful, de spite earlier reports to the contrary. The vote was about half that cast for McKlnley and the amendment is car ried by a beggarly 602 plurality, which certainly does not speak well for the political vitality of tho better element. Friends of good morals should bear in mind that when they enter tho lists against vice they to bo successful need to keep both eyes open. Lnst vcar tho tonnage of the great lakes increased by SG.000 gross tons and uggregated 1,410,103 tons, or nearly one third of the entire American water trafllc. This year tho gain has been even greater. Well may the govern ment look to the protection of naviga tion on Its Inland seas. Put In plain words, when one wants expert testimony these days, all ono has to do Is to state one's case, pay one's money nnd put one's expert on the stand. He will do the rest. According to a Ilawaiinn correspond ent, "every house In Honolulu has a telephone, a piano and a bicycle." Then by all means let annexation proceed. No matter what the malcontents say, the statistics of business demonstrate conclusively that prosperity has come, not transiently but to stay. Republican Diify to Work Together ITIie following vigorous article was penned by Hon. John M. Francis, founder ami editor of tlio Troy, N. Y., 'limes, two days before his death; nnd with a few phrases logically carrying out to a pertinent application tho wise counsel that was, so to speak, Mr. Francis' part ing nu-ssago to tho readers of tho paper which hu created and to tho members of tho party of which ho had been a life long member and defender, was published In tho Times of Sept. 17, under tho head ing: "Working Together." It Is well worthy of thoughtful attention every where. Government Is administered In this country through partisan iigcncics. A principle of public progress or a method of procedure becomes operatlvo in tho af fairs of state only as it is backed by voting force. It Is votes that aro count ed. Votes llko soldiers arc massed by ag gregation. Hut this combining of units can bo accomplished only by organiza tion. As Is un army to a mob, so Is a party to a leaderless band of political "irregulars." Tho army system and dis cipline concentrate and continue tho at tack through tho slego to the battle. Tho party organization and fidelity concen trate and continue tho effort of a cam paign to Its culmination at tho polls. All partisan organizations represent tho In stinct of self-preservation. Informal though they may bo in their spontaneous beginning, they soon develop tho struc tural formation, tho splno nn1 tho ribs, that stands for defense nnd tho power of persistence. It Is sometimes amusing to observo how quickly a new protest against tho apparatus of party becomes a pleco of machinery as rigid as that from which It seceded. Tho initiating and perlmps self-chosen commlttco comes to bo as inflexibly dominating ns any "boss" of long yenrs or extenslvo service or largo following, whom that samo com mlttco may be loudly denouncing. This may bo amusing, but It Is not surpris ing. It Is Inevitable. It Is essential to a contlnuanco even comparatively brief. o . As It Is the party of tho majority that impresses itself upon tho public admin istration in a country whero tho major ity rules, It behooves any party wishing tho practical approval that comes with authority to avoid all dlvlsivo Influences. Union Is strength, and unity Involves tho self-restraint of minor individual ities. In tlio military corps thero must bo tho merging of tho Individual. All ennnot bo captains. Kach cannot chooso tho lino of march. Thcro must not bo ns many tactical commands as thero aro men. So in a pnrty tho fundamental principles that glvo tho organization Its standing must prevail. Pcrsonnl hobbles, which havo a limited following, must bo .kept In abeyance. They need not bo sur rendered as hobbles, for they mny con tain tho seed of party principles, but they must not bo thrust upon tho party with tho threat or penalty of revolt In tho event of rejection. So all cannot bo leaders. Ho who thinks mora of tho ad vancement of his political principles than tho gratification of ambition for person, al preferment will willingly accept the leadership that tho opinion of his party, regularly expressed, has selected. Ho has tho prlvllego of affecting tho cholco of leaders Just as much os his influence entitles him to do so. If tills canon of party loynlty bo not adhered to, thcro will not bo left enough ot tho party to bo worth leading. Tho flrst essential of concentrated action Is willingness to coalesce. Every great document of tho American community, from tho federal constitution down, has been the product of compromise of deferenco to individ ual views nnu concession of individual desires to a few dominant principles, which becauso dominant havo been uni fying. Nor can a party which is to ho largo enough and Inclusive enough to bo a power in tlio affairs of the people pick its membership or even its officers llko a select club organized to udvanco a lit erury or social cult. During tho civil war recruits wcro selected for their fighting qualities, and not for their home occupations or associations. Tho preach er trudged In tho ranks, shoulder to shoulder with tho hand laborer, nnd the follower of a creed kept In lino with tho man who had no creed nt all except faith in tho Union. There wcro generals from nil stations and degrees. Some wero graduates of colleges and military schools and some wcro graudates of battles. Occasionally thcro was one who swore, or perhaps played cards or mayhap drank whisky when tho glass went round, No rliurrh mem bership or collego examination, tests wero Imposed or oven dreamed of. A victorious urpiy wui not to bo built up by exclusion, except of traitors, but by Inclusion. So a victorious party is not n tea party. It is a union of nil who bcllevo In that party ns un efficient agency In tho prosecution of government, nnd who yield to others, nnd expect for themselves, rep resentation nnd sharo of management so far ns numbers glvo title. A successful party can never bo mado of members of a mutual admiration socloty, of thoso who establish n shibboleth based on line ago or social acquaintance, or of thoio who prefer to cast a black ball by them selves to a ballot with others. In es sentials unity, in non-essentials liberty, In nil things charity. It is a good motto for partisan action. Such truths arc especially timely be cause tho preliminaries nre on for an other election compnlgn. Tho Republi can party, In tho rising tldo of its suc cess, must nvold Pharisaical narrowness and self-consuming ambitions and nil re venges that would lead through personal resentment to party misfortune. It Is a grand party nnd must have mugnanlmous supporters. Thero is no badgo but Re publicanism. Thcro Is no password but loynlty. Closo up tho ranks, then, and every man ns ono man forward march! it Is especially needful that at this tlmo tho Republican party should have thu unhaltlng step and the unbroken line. That party is tho only organized repre sentative of tho principles which wcro decided laBt November to bo most worthy of preservation In American affairs tho genuineness of the national word and tho authority of tho civil structure. Tho Democratic party has been spilt asunder by tho test. The Republican party wns strengthened by tho clinllcnBO. Tho honor of tho country, upheld with prosperous results by tho party that with bullets or ballots, as tho need nrose, hns pro tected the American Union, still looks to that party for tho dcclstvo electoral volco thut shall bo tho guarantee of peace. o Tho agitators of public dishonesty and of revolt against tho defenses of tho law are not Idle. The Intertwined rela tions of tho civil fabric mako every cholco by citizens Important in its far reach ing Influence. There Is no off year and no meaningless election when political principles are at stnke. Tho success of thoso principles Is bound up with tho success of tho party that upholds them, and tho success of thnt party Is depend ent upon tho unity and fidelity of its members. Republicans, In nation and stato and county and city, keep together! Your party was never moro necessary to society or moro able to Justify its faith by Its works than with Its acknowledged purposes, under Its present leadership and In this yenr 1S97. OCTOBER MAGAZINES. Among several prominent articles In tho Century that by Theodore Roosevelt pay ing tribute to tho heroes ot peace on tho Now York pollco force who havo won promotion by conspicuous gallantry In tho performanco of duty will bo likely to bo read ilrst by a majority of tho Cen tury's patrons. It is most interesting and timely, and llko all of Mr. Roosevelt's articled It Is tonic with mental ozone. Tho October Century Is also to bo remarked for bringing to Its end General Horace Porter's exceedingly informing series of papers descriptive of General Grant in uc tlvo military service. o An expert debate concerning the wis dom of international bimetallism, in which tho aillrmativo poslton Is taken by Ed ward Tuck, a retired New York banker, and tho negatlvo by W. M. Grlnnell, an active New York banker; a paper by Jo seph Nimmo, jr., upholding section 22 of the Dlnglcy bill; and a discussion ot tno present and future of naval warfare, by Frod T. Jane, tho English war corre spondent, stand out among tho well-selected contents of tho current Forum. o In tho lino ot opportune contents no magazine this month has a better selec tion than was mado by tho Cosmopolitan when It Incorporated in its issue a paper by Dean C. Worcester and Frank S. Itourns showing up Spanish rulo In the Philippines. Theso writers know their subject and a perusal of their vivid coiv trlbution helps materially to an under standing of tho recent cabinet crisis at Madrid. McClurc's this tlmo pleases us moro by what It promises than by what it per forms. It offers tho usual cholco variety of Action, poetry and miscellany, but also unnounces that In its November lesuo will appear tho flrst Installment of Charles A. Dana's personal recollections of the war. Mr. Dana, It will bo remembered, served for President Lincoln as assistant secre tary of war umler Stanton, almost exclu sively for the purpose of Informing tho executive pt Washington how things wero going at tho front. Ho was. in short, the eyes of tho administration, and it follows that his narrative of theso observations, now for the flrst tlmo put In shapo for general reading, will bo of historic and literary moment. Tho last number of Munlcopal Affairs, tho quarterly Issued by tho committee on municipal administration of tho Reform club at 52 William street, New York, opens with an instructive debate upon the question: "Should Greater New York Operato It3 Street Railways?" Tho aillr mativo Is argued with skill and emphasis by Hon. John DeWltt Warner, and the negatlvo receives at tho hands of Ed ward E. Hlgglns an equally thourough defense. Municipal Affairs is an Invalu nblo publication to all serious students of its special theme. o An artlclo in St. Nicholas which will provo as Informing to old folks as to young describes minutely nnd with spirit how In our leading cities tho flremon proceed to get the command over a lire.

Referring to the possibility that the now Spanish cabinet might actually carry Into clfcct Its promises ot autonomy, tho Cu ban leaders in this city agree that the measure will have no ctfect upon tho gen eral situation in tho island, "Autonomy," they unanimously say, "might havo saved Cuba from tho horrors ot tho proscnt war. Rut now that tho country has been laid waste, tho men in tho Held nro determined to keep on fighting until Spain Is driven out of Cuba, It is greatly to bo regretted that by resorting to the trick of grant ing a semblanco of autonomy Spanish diplomacy should, onco more mislead pub lic opinion In tho United States as to the naturo of the relations between Cuba and Spain, and thus possibly avert action by tho American government toward the termination of the, war. Uy now granting antonomy, Spain would recognlzo tho right which led tho Cubans to appeal to arms. They tried for year to convince Spain that autonomy should bo given to them nnd Spam refused to grant It. war came, tho problem was complicated, and auton omy, which would havo been welcomed by a majority of tho Cubans' two years ago, ceased to bo a. solution for our troubles. Independence alcno can put an end to tho war." SAGASTA'S OlIVIOUS SNAKE. From tho Philadelphia Press. Autonomy of this limited character "Sill never be satisfactory to Cuba and will never bo accepted by tho Cubans. Tho Island has been ruined by Spanish con trol. It has been saddled with a debt it can never pay, its industries destroyed, its trade, stilled and Its taxation made onerous beyond tho possibility of collec tion. No mcro modification ot Spanish rule Is possible bocausc, as long as it re mains, commercial prosperity cannot re turn to the Island, and until tho Island Is prosperous it will not bo politically qulat, Tho United Btates hus a right to require that a largo and fruitful territory, three or four hours' sail from Its shores, is no governed that trade with it Bhall bo both profitable and secure.
