To win the illsllne tInn;o'f this Knnt character's notice Is nlinfwt irit,r: sflmy than we had ever hortd.to awjuiip in orn? luni:. !. "Standby the Colorsl TlierO are peculiar reasons at this tlnii! whv Rcpuhllcniis should decline on-Tuesilny-n'cxt to vote for any Renio-cialTe-nonilnep,. either In personal coni plltiwnt oras n trade. ' One of these Is that the epuliticnn numinous, without exception, are capable and clllclent; well I'linlllled to administer the duties of the ollloes for which they arc run nliiK. and possessing fair claims upon their party for lis cordial and entire support. We do not say that the Demo cratic ticket contains the names of no worthy men; but we do rtillrm with absolute fearlessness that not a man on the Democratic ticket could better ferve the public In olllce than his Re publican competitor; and the Republi can ticket hy far outweighs the Demo cratic ticket hi point of the riper and broader experience of Its nominees lu imbllc affairs. If all politics were eliminated, the Gentlemen on the Re publican ticket would be the ones who would stund the strongest test on strictly business principles. Hut to this strontr personal showing of the Republican ticket must be added the Important fact that It stands before the voters of Lackawanna county as the embodiment In this campaign of the admirable principles of the Republi can party; pilnclples which, though In dorsed one year ago by the largest plurality In the history of the county, are again assailed by precisely the same forces that then appealed to the voters to Indorse the pernicious teach ings of the Chicago platform. To be sure, Iirynnlsm today Is trying to se-cW-to Itself in the background; Its local eulogists of the last campaign are now striving with desperate cunning to make the public believe that the I'opo cratlc leopard, by some swift hocus pocus, has since changed his spots. But their efforts are unavailing. The people see the danger; they perceive that the men In control of the present Democratic local machine are the same men who exulted last year In the vic ious Ideas of the Hoy Orator; and they can 111 afford, In view of their verdict then, to weaken Its moral effect now by the slightest encouragement to the vlrtlms of that unheeded rebuke. We alllrm It to bo the duty of those who last year elected McKinley to sus tain him now. He has proved com pletely worthy of the people's trust. His administration so far as It has gone has merited the fullest confidence of the nation. "As a Republican, de pending for effective support upon u Republican congress and a hopeful and triumphant Republican party senti ment, he is not to be encouraged by the throwing of votes to the hostile Democracy. The .structure of Repub lican organization which In Its highest circles comes directly into contact with him. strengthening; his hands, cannot be weakened In the lower circles with out weakening the structure as a whole and thus Indirectly weakening him. It Is Idle to say that political enemies of McKinley and Republicanism can be elected to local offices In so-called olf years, or Republican majorities mater ially reduced, without Involving the friends of McKinley arid the believers in his party dotitrihe in embarrassment and contusion when the years of direct national j elections are reached. In politics, as In war, loyalty Is not alone fP the .ileti'slvo' battles; it is a. duty BBMvell'Of the smallest skirmishes. Fortunately, this truth is pressing home to the Republicanism of Lacka wanna. Hut lot it decide each true Re pubhean to stand squarely and brave, ly jjyilils party colors, fr.om the highest ijarnon'.the ticket to the lowest. Make the coming1 victory complete! Indicate to Mr. Schadt that there are other pebbles on the beach. .Rebuke defamation, Jealousy and narrow-minded persecution by voting and working for John It.

Barrett, of the Scran ton .Truth, has at last yielded to the rerjuest-'of a multitude of Mends m;d given, to them and the world a volume ofhv. poem's. From ime to time as theyVara have swept on, lilts of verae havo appeared In magazine. and the dnly preos from this pen of our gifted townsman. They haze always hud a stprj; to tell, havo always shown it mtTMMir-toHehrwItlv Mm-living" tuiueht oY'ln'o 'daVdnd liaVe" ever ben ,thf expression of lofty Weals'. It. is there fore a pleasure to welcome these gen tle messengers, now flitting about no more alone through the volatile at morphcro of the newspaperdom but (rathe (il bcnrith a shelter that will be treasured In the llbiitrloc of the land. XM a few old favorites are missed from this volume. It is to be regretted that the author allowed any of the brilliant efforts of the years when "Erlgena's" name lent additional charm to the earlier poems, to be omit ted from the collection. No one can peruse the little volume without being Impressed by the patriotism, the purity of thought and the standard of true nobility held by the author. The title page poem, "The Fugitive," has a Mlltonlan ling and Is a tragic story of the woes of slavery. In his preface the author states that the selection of the theme Is a result of life-long sym pathy with the slave and his belief In the intellectual possibilities of the ne gro. The pathetic reclt.il ot the sep aration of Adam Sage's family and 'he finale of the slav hunt are given In line glowing with beautiful and ef fective diction. It Is an epic In an un worn path. A number of the shorter poems ex press In pleasant versr the dignity of toll, while others breathe a loyalty to America deep and sincere, und a faith simple and loving- as that of a child. "A Friend of Mine" will touch th..' reader with Its pathos. "A Tree" Is original and highly poetic In concep tionthis for instance: "Man's friend am I, thouqh he's not mine I build his home, I build his ships, I shelter him In utorm and thine, And when he wars my bark ho strips; I give him, fruit though oft with scorn He draws on me for his supplies; 1 nin his cradle when he'.s bom And I'm his collln when lie dies." There Is melody and color In the "Sunrise" stanzas; "A rustic of leaves and a dash of dew. A llut'er ot wings and a. gush of song;" and thorp is a quaint strain of hu mor In "The Enchanted Vest" of LI Hung Chang. The lovely lines "O beauteous Edelweiss, that prows Like some white thought on high;-' and the triumphant ring In the "Christ mas Chnnt" will bear many a rending, while tho poems of child life and the tributes to labor In this particular re gion merit a largo share of prals-e. The sunny, optimistic outlook char acterizing the collection leaves u pleas ant Impression. Take no chances. Vote the straight ticket. Up In Carbondale the Democrats are weakening on their claim of POO ma jority for Norton. The fact is that Copeland will carry not only Carbon dale but the whole valley, and reach the profs ofllco with a plurality nl mast as big as Pryor had three years ago. Murk that. The Uryunltes are on the run. Keep after them. The Situation In New York. It Is Ib'e uniform testimony of all experienced observers who have made a personal study of the present cam paign for th municipal control of Greater New York that in excitement. Intensity of feeling, and perplexing elements of uncertainty it has never has a parallel in American politics. The speaker who recently said that it com manded the attention of tho civilized world uttered no hyperbole. It Is safe to say that in these days of rapidly diffused Intelligence there Is no part of the globe where the news of this furious struggle is not received with avidity and Interpreted more or less understandlngly. TliPre Is no need at this late moment to review the arguments entering In to the light. What Is now of chief In terest Is a dispassionate estimate of the probabilities, and that is by no means easy to make. With the newspapers of Now York In radical conflict as to prophecies and with each' campaign committee professing the absolute cer tainty of Its candidate's election tlu-re Is nothing to guide an outsider save his own judgment'. And even with that In requisition no two out siders can be found who will closely agree. There seems to be a general belief that Tammany's man Van Wyck has In some respects the ndvantage over the field: but here we encounter the fact that Tammany no longer does the counting; besides, Tammany must leckon with' Henry Gsorse. Van Wyck and George cannot both get the labor vote, the socialist vote, thft German vote and the vote of the generally discontented. If the former loses the bulk of these votes to the latter, where is his boasted plurality to come from? Nowhere under heaven, save trom Re publicans, and with so good a candi date of their own as General Tracy it does not seem probable that many Republicans will vote for Van Wyck. On the other hand, It Is futile to deny that the secession of the Mugwump and lavender water Republican ele ment, represented by Seth Low, has weakened the Republican position. With approximately the normal Repub lican .import. Tracy, it is clear, could bo elected, with George pulling away from Tammany. Without that support, or with less than 83 per cent, of It. Tracy's chances look to us to be not of the best. Wa do not believe that Low will lead Tiacy. These independ ent movements always show up big" everywhere save at the polls, When the trained regular forces of Republi canism get throiifh with Mr. Low It will be a reversal of all history if his rating shall not fall several points below his most conservative present expectations. Rut tho defeat of Low will bo small comfort If as an Incident thereto the enlarged municipality of New York must bo given over to Tam many. It is to be hoped that ers next Tues day tho original cause of tho Republi can disunion. Mr. Low, will be per suaded temporarily to forego his per sonal ambition and throw the bulk of his support to the manifestly most experienced and be3t equipped candi date in tho lot, General Tracy. That would 'be a rpal victory for the cause of good government. Otherwise, upoi. his head will rest the responsibility for tho roascendancy of Tammany; and It will be no light responsibility, either. A- dispatch from Washington r vlfiwlng the labor of the unofllclal cur rency reform commission appointed ct the Indianapolis convention says rather slgnlllcantly: "Answers received to questions asked of a number of fi nancial experts demolish tho rather widespread notion that there Is a de sire among men of this class for the withdrawal of thegreenbacksand treas ury notes." There Is certainly little antl-greenlwck feeling In congress, and, after nil, It Is the attitude of congress that counts. No Roland dynasty for Lackawanna; no Balleylzlng the court house. The howl raised this year concerning the state treasury may have set a few heads to spinning but it has not ob scured the remarkable fact that In 58 years the .treasury of Pennsylvania has not lost one cent through mismanage ment, although the "money handled ex ceeded $400,000,000. A crisp fact like this outweighs an Immensity of nebu lous or malicious gabble. If the Republican vote comes out, Ralley, Boland and Co. will bo politi cally burled. See that It gets out. Good Roads. General Roy Stone, director of the bureau of Road Inquiry of the Agri cultural department, and well-known to Scrantinians, has made a report on the reads of Iowa, which is of Import ance everywhere, because It discusses the losses caussd by bad roads, herever there are bad roads it is obvious that thee Is a great waste of time and power, and this waste can be expressed most effectively in dollars and cents. General Stone reports that wliillo Iowa leads all other states In tonnage of agricultural products, tho cost of troiiHportlns her crops by wagon has reached the maximum, owinir to tho bad condition of the public roads, so that her agricultural output of 24,000, 000 tons is hauled at an average cost of $1.21 a ton. Tho Iowa farmer pays on an average 21 cents a ton a mile, but tlie cost of hauling on good roads is from 6 to 10 cents. Tho present conditions are largely caused, he says, hy the neglect of the government to lay out road a In nd.'ance of the set tlement of the country. General Stone estimates that tvlth railroad co-operation narrow stJno roads or gravel roads surfaced with stone can bo built generally throughout the state at a cost of from JS00 to $1,200 a mile where no heavy grading is icqulred, anil suggests that the cost can be largely reduced by ths employment of convict labor. Conservative estimates based upon the hauling of crops and local travel placa the tax paid annually by the farmers of Iowa because ot bad roads at $11,000,000. It Is questionable whether convict labor Is desirable in road-building, but or. the main proposition that better roads are neeJed both because of their ultimate economy and their uplifting influence upon society there cannot bo two Intelligent opinions. General Stone has approached the subject In the proper way to reach tilts 'rural citizen and h'is statistics merit the widest publicity. The sturdy Republicanism Of Hyde Park next Tuesday should make short work of tho boasted power of Schadt's cash. We observe in the reports In the Times that Hon. Christy Glad-hand Roland, the man who ousted Colonel Fitzslmmons from the actual director ship of Schadt's canvass, continues in his speeches to "dwell at. length upon The Tribune." We thank Christy for the advertisement; but we still think it would make clearer his position as a purist In politics If he would explain to his audiences how he settled Nate Yidaver's suit. Beat the Bryanltes this time and their case In Lackawanna will hereaf ter be hopeless. War with Spain isn't probable, noi ls war with any other country. Still, congress should annex Hawaii, strengthen the navy and go right on with the building of ndequate coast and harbor defenses. There's no tell ing what might happen and it's best to be on the safe side. Clarence E. Prvor in the best serfte is a. man ot the people. Let the peo ple remember their friend. There's no doubt as to the size of Schadt's campaign fund; still, it doesn't begin to equal the size of the disaffection in his own ranks. For every Republican that Schadt can buy he's likely to lose two Democrats who can't stand his tricky ways. It Is growing evident that Schadt and Westpfahl will havo a task to keep the South Side in their pockets. A POLITICAL POINTER- If you Indorse tno free trade and free silver Chicago platform as the Lacka wanna Democracy does, "fully and without reserve," then work and vote for Schadt, Horn, et. al. If you be lieve In McKlnley.protcctlon and pros perity, turn these- agents of Bryan down. The amusing young editor of the Carbondale Herald continues to make votes for John R. Jones, John Copeland and the whole Republican ticket, not withstanding Schadt's paying the freight. We are Informed that the budding geniuses at the Spruce street head quarters are preparing what they con sider to be a "dandy last card." Suf fice it now to say that their scheme is known. . It Is a poor policy when Important Issues arc at stake to lire into the nlr. One of two tickets must be elected In this county. Why, then, waste votes on a hopeless third? True, Pryor hasn't a $55,000 bank ac count to draw on, as Schadt openly boasts that he has; nevertheless, Pryor is going to be elected, and by a rousing majority. Don't worry about Charley Hucster. He may not say much but Tuesday will show he's been sawing a lot of wood. These are the days when true Re publicanism is proved leas by words than by works, Tommy Daniels has not had the I means to make an extensive personal canvass; ho li not a VnndeTbllt or an Astor. But tho plain people nro going to elect him with a majority that will make the enemy's head swim. W. K. Beck has been a wheel-horse for the Republican party for lo, these many years. Now's the time for the party to acknowledge Its indebtedness. Those lies about Ixingstaff ought to give him the biggest majority on tho ticket. The Coramiinicafion From Old Madrid Washington Dispatch In Philadelphia Times. Tho diplomatic correspondence with Spain will not he made public by this government until it Is transmitted to con gress In a special messuge from tho pres ident, who will probably mako no recom mendation to congrecs In his original com munication. President McKinley was so long a member of congress, and Is so fa miliar with prevailing conditions on cap ltol hill, that he will leave tho subject to tho congrrr.s for ndvlsory action. Inas much as the senate pasjtd a resolution providing for tho recognition of the bellig erent rights of the Cuban Insurgents, that resolution is now In tho house of repre sentatives, and has been referred to tho committee on foreign affairs, where it Is subject to immcdlato presentation be foro tho house, when that body convenes In December, llecause of tho desire of tho prcsldentthoresolution was laid aside dur ing the extraordinary session of congress, but Speaker Reed will not prevent Us consideration as soon cs Chairman llltt, of the committee on foreign affairs, an nounces his readiness to report the reso lution. o Speaker Reed and Chalmnn llltt aro both believers In the timeliness of the rec ognition ot belligerency. President Mc Kinley will no longer endeavor to resist public, sentiment. Therefore It Is be lieved by olllchtls of the department of stato as well as by leading members of the diplomatic corps that before New Year's day a reply will bo made to tho note ot Spain by tho congress of this country: a reply which will undoubtedly result in tho severanco of diplomatic relations be tween the two countries. Whether war will follow that International condition re mains to be seen. Conservative men be lieve that there will bo arbitration and peaceful settlement of tho question. It all depends upon the government at Mad rid. It may be positively staled that the government at Washington wants peace, and not war, but the Cuban problem will not much longer be before the world. It will be settled peacefully or otherwise, within the next two months unleys the financially-enfeebled government at Mad rid should Insist upon tho use ot rilled can. non, warships and blood before its recog nition of the fact that the Cuban Insur gents cannot bo subjugated. o A leading member of one of the Euro pean legations, lu private conversation with tho Times representative, said: "While It would be extremely hazardous for any member of the diplomatic corps at this capital to express any olllclal opin ion concerning foreign affairs, with which his government has officially nothing to do, 1 will say to you for your own infor mation and the Information of your read ers, that tho opinion Is unanimous In the diplomatic corps that ex-President Clove, land and PrcEldent McKinley havo done more to preserve peace and to prevent filibustering, against public clamor, than any monarch would havo done. Your presidents aro more independent of clamor than are any sovereigns In Inter national affairs. The gentlemen who oc cupy diplomatic position here havo been suprlsed that ex-President Cleveland and President McKlr.le ihould resist public opinion and congressional fulmlnatlons as they have done. Take Great Britain, for example, if the parliament should pass resolutions expressive of public sentiment In a matter of international moment, in which all of tho Brl:' h people were Inter ested, tho queen would feel It incumbent upon her lo convey to the friendly nation an expression of the opinion of her sub jects. But your presidents havo striven to maintain friendly relations with Spain, even at the risk of personal unpopularity. You can also say that members of the diplomatic corps aro fully advised of tho fact that your government has done Its utmost to prevent filibustering expedi tions. The attitude of Spain, in this al leged note, cannot be sustained. From my knowledge of the views ot diplomats hero I can assure you that Spain will not have tho sympathy of any European gov ernment except that of Austria lu her al legation that your government has not done its duty." - bring our Tin: von:. From thet Philadelphia Inquirer. On Tuesday next the voters of Penn sylvania will have a chance to say at tho polls whether they aro satisfied with tho results of McKlnley's election. President McKinley will then havo been in office eight months, and In thoso eight months havo como a full national treasury, ex panding markets, the sound of tho factory whistle once more and dollar wheat. Do tho people ot Pennsylvania like the change which they voted for a year ago? Then let them say jo next Tuesday. Henry Georgelsm and Bryanism are still very much ullve, and even now aro laying plans for tho presidential election of 1900. It will not do for the conservative forces of the country to rest on their oars in tho fancied security that because one race has been won there is no need of further effort. Every thoughtful citizen should make it his business to go to the polls. Every voto for the Republican ticket Is a vote in favor of having tho United States enter upon a new century with a fair and honest start, besides being a vote for a contlnuanco of tho newly-arrived pros perity and for an inflow instead of an outgo of gold, Let tho reaction looked and hoped for by the Bryanltes bo guarded against now by rolling up a Republican majority that will paralyze the efforts and destroy tho hopes of tlat dangerous element In so ciety which has rallied under the red Hag of Bryan and George. OUR IRON' PRODUCTS. From tho Indianapolis News. There has never been such a production in this country of iron and steel as at the present time. The current consumption of pig iron amounts to 232,000 tons weekly, equal to 12,000.0000 tons a year. Tho great est single year's production of pig iron In tho United States was 9,500,000 tons, In ISM. Twelve years ago tho yearly output was 4,000,000 tons. It increased to 9.172.000 tons, In 1892, but tho produetlon dropped back to 6,557.000 tons In 1S9I. The great In. crease in 1S93 resulted In over-accumulation of stock, so that there was a falling oft In production In 1S90, but consumption has more than caught up with produc tion now, and the foundries are using the Iron faster than the furnaces can turn it out. Tho record of the Iron Industry of this country is a good illustration of tho great industrial development of recent years. Changes in the methods of manu facture and tho expenditure of millions of dollars for tho latest inventions in ma chinery havo made It possible for the American manufacturers to produce Iron and steel so cheaply as enormously to-increase tho uses to which they can be put, and have mado it possible for American steel rails to force their way into Rula, Japan, and oven England, In the face of bitter competition.
