The Pinal Week of the Campaign.
Tho manner In which the plain .teo
plo ai eomlna: out to the rtepubllcnn
rallies iri this county shows that their
Interest Ih at Hst nwakened to tho Im
portance of this campalKn nnd that. In
Itself, means a TtcpuMlcan triumph'
next week. There Is no dancer to tho
Ilepuhllenn ratifip when tho Republican,
masses ate thoroughly aroused.
Within the piesent weel;, which will
practically iltuw tho canvass of 1S97
to a cIofo, a number of speakers of
Ftate reputation ate i-xpsclrd to appear
before the voters of Lackawanna,
chlelly in the Interest of tho excellent
.Republican state ticket this year, Hut
while these orators will dlscus state
issues prtmlnentlv, they will also em
phasize tho Importance of Republican
unity and earnestness aloncr the entire
party battle lino. They will point out,
whit experienced party workers al
ready know, that tho Eimiemacy of
Republican politics in the highest
circles of government rests upon tho
foundation of Republic loyalty and
steadfastness In nil tho miner circles;
in other words, that Republicans must
keep their party nlignment unbroken
from national elections down if they
wish to stand Invincible aeralnst tho
common enemy.
To theso meetliics ns thov shall bo
announced from day to day, citizens
ot all parties- nro cordially invited.
Let them attend and hear able dis
cussions of tho pending issues. Tho
republican party Is not afraid to carry
its case to the jecide. It does not
have a platform of principles that Its
candidates are compelled in self de
fense to shovo back, out of sight.
Teach the Democrats one week from
tomorrow that Republicans nre not
outraged in tho business of going back
on their party.
m
The Nub of the Contest.
The nearness of election supplies to
Republicans an additional teason for
closing up tho lines and preparing to
charge the enemy with the party's
solidified strength. Those who arc Re
pubUcaiiH from principle; whoso stead
fastness in political strife is not a
thing of barter and bale; who believe
that tho way to prove- their Republi
canism is to stand up and fight when
their party's honor Is insulted and its
f-tandard-bearn's are assailed; who, in
short, are Republicans of tho manly
type, not nursing grievances, venting
prejudices nor easer to see the pillars
of Republican supremacy knocked from
under the administration in power, will
demonstrate tho same during the pres
ent week by their words and by their
works.
Wo have no apology to make for tho
Republican county ticket before the
people this fall. It Is a clean ticket
and an able ticket. Tho men on it
have deserved well of tho Republican
party and their eUctlon will insure
tho continuance of good county gov
ernment. Tho various attempts which
have been made to fasten a stigma
upon it have been dictated by notor
iously unworthy motives nnd have sig
nally and utteily foiled. It is a ticket
appealing to tho confidence of every
voter not blinded by piejucllco or
biassed by factional or personal re
fientment; and it Is a ticket the elec
tion of which would fittingly recognize
tlie different elements and sections of
the county. If the election of next
week possessed none other than a lo
cal .slgnllicanco the Republican party
would still deservo tho support of a
majority of tho electors of Lackawan
na county.
Rut wo desire to re-iterate that more
than local Issues are nt stake. The
Democratic candidates are pledged by
their party platform to th? complete
and unreserved Indorsement of Rry
nnism nnd tho Chicago platform.
Though they have tried to conceal or
evudo this fact tho record Is unmis
takable. The organization which is
urging their election and which, should
they succoed, would control tho patron
age of their ofllces, Is a Bryan organ
ization, under obligations .to work In
unison with Carman, Bryan and tho
free llver cause. This means that If
they win they will try next year to
elect an uncompromising Bryanlte to
congress; and thneo years hence will
throw what strength they can to the
second campaign of Bryan for the pres
idency. In other words', n vote for
Schadt Horn, Kelly or any of their
colleagues is Indirectly a vote to con
tinue the llvir agitation, to unsettle
buslnoss confidence, to encourage liat
Ism nnd .the wild vagaries of tho Chi
cago platform and to throw obstacles
in the path or William McKlnley and
the national Republican party.
This 1h so clear and Plain that no
man can deiiy, it wljp has not a self
ish pergonal -wasoiv Tor wishing It mis
understood. Tho Democratic candi
dates of course deny It, for they want
votes. Tho Scrnnton Times denies It,
for It wnntn county pap. Tho Sunday
News, the Sunday World nnd tho Sun
day Free Press deny It, because each
of these has a business iron In tbo
Democratic lire. Tho subsidized or
gans throughout tho county ueny It,
because Bchadt's paymaster has told
them to. The bolting Republicans
deny It, else they could not possibly
offer even a lame excuse for their re
creancy to the party to which they
profess to be true. But no unfettered
man of common sense who understands
politics enn deny It, for if ho did tho
truth Is visible to refute him.
These nro the facta; dare any dis
believer In Bryanlsm assume the risk
to Ignore them?
Lot all good citizens bear In mind
that a rousing victory next week will
practically close uti the present man
agement of tho Urynnized Democracy
and clear tho Held of future trouble.
Tributes from the Enemy.
The Scranton Times of June C, ISO.',
contained tho following: "Ono of tho
most studious and painstaking of pub
lic officials Is District Attorney John
R. Jones. His prepaintlon of the com
monwealth cases Is done with the samo
f-crupulous core us It a largo fee de
pended on success In the courts. This
circumstance does not stand always to
tho forefront in tho work ot circuit or
district attorneys. The cases coming
within his jurisdiction aro constantly
on tho increase, which tequlres more
time in their preparation than former
ly. Every detail Is carefully attended
to nnd when tho case comes for trial
court Is not obliged to wait for any
thing so far as the commonwealth is
concerned."
In tho Scrnnton Republican of Oct.
29, ISM, appeared these words: "The
Freo Press of Sunday last compliments
DIstiict Attorney Jones in the follow
ing innguago: 'The learned district nt
toiney, John R. Jones, Is to bo com
mended for tho way ho dispatched tho
business of criminal court the past two
weeks, with but one court In session,
lie worked with a vim and a will to
get through with tho cases, and when
court adjourned at noon yesterday as
much work was accomplished as if tho
customary two courts were running.
Tills speaks well for Mr. Jones, and ho
deserves the slnceie thanks of the citi
zens of Lackawanna county.' "
These are sample quotations which
might 1)0 multiplied Indefinitely. When
the foiegolng ttue compliments were
penned, no local campaign was on and
our Democratic contemporaries were
in a mood to play fairly. Things aro
different with them now, but Mr. Jones'
efficiency is unchanged. The records
show that he has made tho best dis
trict attorney the county ever had and
that explains why ho Is going to be
handsomely re-elected.
Roland and Fltzslmmons inigh't set
tle tho question as to who is the real
boss of Srhadt's campaign by arbi
tration. It is too bad to seo such
brillant reformers In discord.
The Time Drawing Nigh.
Tho continued reiteration In news
paper reports that the Spanish reply to
Minister Woodford's Inquiry concern
ing the probable further duration of
tho Cuban war will include a protest
ngalnst American filibustering together
with an intimation to the authorities
at Washington that they have not done
their duty In their efforts to stop these
unlawful expeditions Is now supple
mented by a seemingly nuthentlc cable
gram from Madrid to the Sun, assert
ing that the Spanish minister at Wash
ington, Senor Do Lome, has received
orders to sav to Secretary Sherman
"that If moro filibustering expeditions
start from this country for Cuba, Spain
will use her right to search American
ships."
It is not necessary to get excited
over these reports until they shall be
officially confirmed. But the confir
mation of them is to bo hoped for, in
asmuch as it would open tho way with
out act ot our own to a speedv con
clusion of tho whole matter. The chief
objection heretofore offered against the
granting to Cuba of belligerent rights
has been that it would leave Spain
free to search our slips, thus providing
a continuous and serious risk of war.
But If Snaln proposes to create such
a risk anyhow, then nothing is to bo
gained for peace by further withhold
ing a belligerency proclamation; nnd
tho sooner one is issued the better for
all concerned.
These consequences would follow the
issuance: (1) This glvernment would
he relieved of tho cost and troublo of
maintaining a coastwise patrol for fili
busters. (2) The Cubans in this country
and their sympathizers would no longer
have to spend $1.50 to convey one dol
lar's worth of munitions of war
through the lines of surveillance now
kept up by tho federal authorities, and
thence to Cuba. (3) The securities of
tho republic of Cuba, now practically
worthless, would become negotiable,
enabling its olllclals to purchase arms,
supplies and a fleet of ships. (4) Cuba
would soon expel tho Spaniard and be
free.
The president may refer the whole
matter to congress, awaiting its in
structions; or, he may act on his own
responsibility under the undoubted
constitutional prerogative of the chief
executive; but whatever tho form of
tho action tho tlmo has evidently
drawn nigh for tills government to
assert Itself.
Tho Times is evidently so hard
pressed for political fodder that it re
vives the He about John S. La Touche
fighting William K. .Beck, which Mr.
La Touche flatly denied over his own
slgnaturo nearly a month ago. You
can caugo the rest ot its rot by this
sample.
litsldo History.
The truo slsnltlcante of the Times'
frantic appeal on Saturday to Demo
crats not to vote for Okell makes an
interesting story.
When Okell failed in his ambition to
havo the Republican managers make
It worth his whllo to keep in line for
Pryor, Schndt took him up nnd It has
been rumored that tho Dcmpcratla can
didate tor sheriff paid tho expenses of
OkelJ's hunt for signatures to his own
nomination 'papers, promising more
bosldes If Ofcell could deflect from
Pryor a certain number of Republican
voteo. They were both thinking only
of Republican votes and that Is where
Schadt made his mlstnke.
It has since developed that many of
tho signers ot Okoll's petition nro
Democrats, who tako this means of
evading tho necessity of votlnir for
Schadt. Lately Schadt lias tried to
pull them over, but ho hns miserably
failed. They ward him oft by saying
they nro pledged to Okell. Ilenco the
appeal in tho Times, and henco a lot
of now gloom In tho vicinity of tho
Schadt headquarters.
Okell of course will stand no show
of election. A v.oto for him is for prac
tical purposes a yoto wasted. Why,
therefore, don't Democrats who dislike
Schadt voto directly for the next
sheriff, Clarence E. Pryor?
"
Judge Archliald is a Republican nnd a
hlgli-mlndcd gentlcmnn who will do no
man a wrong. Scrnnton Times.
The president Judgo of the Lacka
wanna courts was not thus popular
with tho Democratic campaign speak
ers and organs In tho fall of 1804.
Whether this newly conceived admira
tion among foes of tho party which
elected him to his present exalted posi
tion will survive tho present tempor
ary exigencies of a factional campaign
remains to be scon. Let us, however,
hope so.
Pryor and Davles.
In Saturday's Issuo of tho Cour
ier-Progress Representative Farr thus
nailed ono of the Scranton Times'
lately coined campaign lies:
"Tho desperation of tho Democratio
managers Is noticeable In the falso
stories thoy are endeavoring to put in
circulation. One of these Is that Clar
ence E. Pryor opposed Thomas D. Da
vies. That is a wicked falsehood. No
man was moro true to his partthan
Mr. Prvor and moro anxious for the
success of Mr. Davies. As a candidate
on that ticket and ono who was in
close touch with the work In that cam
paign, the writer knows that Mr. Pry
or was not only loyal, but actively in
terested In Mr. Davles" success. There
was no question for several weeks be
fore tho end of that campaign that Mr.
Pryor would bo successful, but he kept
up his personal work for tho ticket till
the last moment."
Mr. Farr's conclusion is that Mr.
Pryor deserves llydo Park's support,
and innsmuch ns the Republicans of
Hyde Park believe to a man in fair
play, wo feel sure that they will stand
by their party in this campaign and
especially by tho good Republican can
didates against whom the Democrats
are now so 'busy circulating false and
malicious reports.
Times must be booming in Nebraska.
A correspondent at Lincoln, Mr. Bry
an's home, writes: "Unlike many pre
vious vear.s, the farmers of the state
are not forced to sell in order to ob
tain ready cash this year. They have
moro money than they can conveni
ently Invest. It has really reached the
point in the state where the country
banks havo quit soliciting deposits.
They have more money in their vaults
than they can find borrowers for, and
they cannot afford to pay even three
per cent, on deposits. It Is estimated
that three-fourths of the state banks
have sixty-five per cent, of their de
posits and other resources in their
vaults. The State bank of Davenport
closed Its doors last week, alleging as
a reason therefor that it could find no
borrowers for Its surplus cash. Tho
officers wound up tho business of the
concern, paid the depositors who would
call for their money, nnd notified the
others to come and get their money,
ns they had no room for it. The great
question with the farmers of the statt
at present Is as to the investment of
surplus cash." If this bo a truo pic
ture, Populism's doom ought not to be
far off.
The Philadelphia policemen who ar
rested a woman crazy with grief on
her way to tho undertaker's from the
bedside of her de.id husband, and who
charged her in the police court with
being drunk, should bo promoted to the
New York force whciu such blunders
as locking up epllentic3 In the station
house as common drunks, and arrest
ing innocent and unoffending women
for imaginary disgraceful conduct are
frequently recorded.
The Colliery Engineer and Metal
Miner will hereafter be known as
Mines and Minerals. Tho publication
In question Is the best edited and most
widely circulated one of its class in
the world and is a great resource to
Scranton; and we hope that tho modi
fication In title will increase its worth
ily achieved success.
Tho Tribune cannot justify tho whole
sale bribery In the recent Republican
convention by alleging that money was
spent in Democratic conventions many
years ago. Scrnnton Times.
Tho Tribune knovs of no 'wholesale
brllorj In tho rocoi: Republican con
ve Ion," neither tlis the Times. The
liUte paper is simply barking fi r ef
fect. Perhaps J100.000 Is a rather largo est!
mato of tho nmount of money to bo ex
pended by the Republicans. Scranton
Times.
Thero is hope for tho Times yet, If
its conscience still gjgs over the whop
pers that its position ns the official
organ of tho until rllloit requires it to
coin. Wo had thotnrht it had got be
md tlie period of compunction.
England's refusal to Join in a new
conference for International bimetall
ism probably disposes of this subject
for the present; but with prosperity
whooping along ns It now is, such an
outcomo can be borne with patience,
Tho men who aro Just now compos
ing Tom Piatt's political obituary seem
to forget that this job has been done
once or twice before, and yet the old
sinner refuses to expire.
Wo commend tho fair and temperato
stand taken by tho Republican In this
campaign. Scranton Times.

Character of the
State Nominees
rittaburg Commercial-Gazette
1 It hns been uotlceabla In tho present
campaign In Pennsylvania that tho ele
ments of tho opposition havo been sensi
ble enough not to seek to raise any ques
tion ns to tho ability nnd Integrity ot tho
Republican candidates namely, Jamos 8.
Uencom for Btnto treasurer, and Major
Levi Q. McCaulcy for auditor-general.
They havo thus conceded the fitness of
tho Republican candidates for tho very
good reason that no other courso was
open to them, and becauso they havo
been sufficiently diplomatic to recognize
tho fact that nny attempt to bring tho
qualities of tho Republican candidates
into question would promptly net as a
boomerang for thoso nttemptlng it. Tho
ono grievous offcuso for which thoy nro
held nccountnblo is that they havo al
ways been, ns now, stanch Republicans,
nnd havo persisted, to tho dlscomflturo
of the opposition, In being potent factors
In swelling Ilenublicnn majorities. Mr.
Uencom, still a young man, hns rendered
tho party notable Hcrvlce, and since ho
becntna a, voter In Westmoreland county
has had tho satisfaction of seeing the
county's Democratic majority ot 3,000 or
thereabouts chnngo to n Republican ma
jority of nearly twice that number. Llko
his senior collenguo on tho ticket, Major
McCauley, ho Is n sclf-mado man, ener
gotlc and thorough In whatever cnguges
his attention,
o
Major McCauley. older in years, has
helped to fight nil tho great bnttles of tho
Republican party at tho polls and carries
as well an empty slecvo as a memento
ot how he helped to light Its battles on
tho battlefields of tho rebellion. With
that lemcmbranco of rebel bullets, ho
carries, too, tho rcmembrnnco of captiv
ity nnd tho horrors of Llbbc.v prison.
Theso candidates nre entitled not only to
tho normal Republican mnjorltlec, but
to the voto of overy Republican in tlie
the state, nnd tho heavy majority polled
fall should cnuse no Republican voter to
stny nway from tho polls the 2d of next
month, with tho lazy excuso that tho
mnjorlty will bo so largo his voto will
not bo missed. Not Hone for tho excel
lence of tho stato ticket and In recog
nition of tho sterling Republicanism its
candidates represent, should the Repub
lican party ot Pennsylvania poll its Jiill
voto at tho coming election, it should bo
mndo ns well to emphasize and rclterato
tho verdict rendered last fall. Turn out.
Republicans, nnd glvo tho opposition,
though snowed under, no opportunity to
harp about a reduced majority and mako
uso of It in other states, If not in Penn
sylvania, for tho encouragement of tho
elements whipped in laRt fall's campaign.
Vote a Straight Ticket.
From the Oyphnnt Gazette.
Henry George, ono of the candidates
for mayor in Greater New York, said
recently, "I consider the campaign
this year tho forerunner of 1900." What
did ho mean by it? Ho stands ns tho
solo representative of Drynnlsm In tho
great struggle now going on In the tho
second city of tho world. His follow
ers adopted tho Chicago platform as
their basis of julnclples. To It they
point with pride. Upon its planks they
stand unquestlonlngly. Sq do tho men
who aro clamoring for vo.tes for tho
county offices In Lackawanna county
upon the Democratic ticket. They
stand for Bryanlsm, for free silver,
for flat currency, for national bank
ruptcy. And yet somo men who claim
to be Independent in politics aro sup
porting them, or somo of them, be
causo personally they aro good fel
lows. A voto for the Democratic ticket this
year in Lackawanna county put in by
any man who voted for McKlnley is
simply and solely a repeal of his act or
a year ago. He snys by Buch an act,
"I am sorry that I voted for honest
money and I now Join tbo gang which
tried to bring repudiation and ruin
upon America," It Is safe to say that
no self-respecting Republican will
stultify himself by such an uct.
Tho Republican party In Lacka
wanna county stands upon tho plat
form of 'Ot?. Its convention heartily
reiterated that famous document. Its
platform includes praiso for McKin
ley's masterly handling of affairs at
homo and abroad. Its candidates are
men who worked with all their en
ergy to win last year, and who deservo
a recognition at itho polls by all lovers
of American principles. A straight
voto for them not only shows appre
ciation of their own worth; but is a
seal of approval upon tho good work
dona ut tho ballot box last November.
Every good Republican will voto a
straight ticket.
STANDS THE TEST.
Hydo Park Courier-Progress.
Tho popularity of a man at his home Is
a good test of his worth. John Copelnnd,
of CarbondaJe, makes a splendid showing
In this particular. Tho ipcople of tho Pio
neer City overwhelm him with praiso aud
nro enthusiastically for him, .Mr. Cope
Hnd Is a modest, unassuming man, splen
didly equipped by ability and expenenco
for the position of prothonotary, for which
ofllro tho Republicans present him to tho
consideration of tho people. Mr. Copeland
is yardmaster of tho Delaware and Hud
son company at Carbondale. Liko so
many other capable and reliable men ho
began nt tho very bottom, starting out
as tool boy in a section gang. His pood
qualities endear him to all who como in
contact with him. Ho has been ono of
tho wheel horses of tho party for many
years and from every standpoint deserves
tho hearty support that ho will get.
TO REWARD MERIT.
t
From tho Olypbant Gazette.
Somo objection has been mado to tho
head of tho ticket because ho has hold a
lesser ofllce for two terms, (No one dares
assert that ho has not been faithful In
tho position with which ho has twlco been
honored by Lackawanna voters. And tho
only objection is that ho has had enough.
Well, our reporter has looked up both can
dldates as to this matter. Mr. Pryor In
his six years' service as prothonotary has
not received Into his own pwso as much
as his Democratic oprouent In one-half
tho time. A veto for Mr. Pryor Is a voto
to reward dlllgcnco In a lower placo by
saying, "Como up higher."
SHJ.VUICANT.
Tho enthusiasm with which John R.
Jones' nnmo Is received at every publlo
meeting shows plainly 'how tho peoplo feel
concerning 'him. And tho abuse ot his
enemies docs not hurt, because the peo
ple know that Mr. Jones has been a faith
ful and most efilclont district attorney.
