Will the Scranton Times please make
a note of this?
Stand by the President.
It Is not supposable that with mo
mentous territorial and other ivar
problems awaiting solution at the
hands of the next congress any Rcpub
Ilcan will become Indifferent to the
necesslty of re-inforcing the president
by a congressional majority in sympa
thy with his views: yet the light vote
cast In the Vermont and Maine elec
tions suggests that Republicans else
where should not overlook the national
nspects of the approaching November
election.
In this state the gubernatorial and
legislative battle has become through
no fault of the Republican party one
' very largely factional In its character.
A noisy element though professing to
be Republican on national issues is
effecting in many legislative districts
fusion with the Democrats. Prohibi
tionists and Independents with the pur
pose of undermining the Republican
party organization. Beaten In open
state convention after a fair canvass,
these representatives of a disaffected
faction are now seeking' revenge at
the polls by engineering alliances
with the common political enemy. In
at least one congressional district they
have set up a stump candidate against
the regular Republican candidate, and
while the latter will prolmbly pull
through, saving a vote to the national
administration, no thanks will bo due
to the factlonists now striving to en
compass his defeat. Doubtless as the
campaign progresses similar tactics
will be employed elsewhere, and it
therefore becomes essential that Re
publicans whose party atllllatlon rests
on belief In Republican nrlnclnle
should everywhere solidify with a view
to defending their own.
The Democratic party cannot make
nny gains In Pennsylvania this fall
unless helped to them by Republican
aid. Whatever galnH it shall make
by such aid will be held by it In future
to the detriment of Republican inter
ests. Guerrilla warfare where national
Issues are Involved does not promote
genuine political reform but simply
embarrasses it. Mr. Wanamaker and
his confrere disturbers cannot weak
en the party at one point and expect
it to remain strong nt another. If
they are sincere In their professions of
loyalty to the party on national issues
they will limit their efforts at state
readjustment within party lines and
avoid alliances with the enemy. Their
refusal to conserve the national Inter
ests of the party should be taken by
good Republicans as a signal to with
draw from further Identification with
them and to align for party defense.
In solving the problems growing out
of the war the administration needs be
hind It tha support of a united party.
Some Democrats ar.e broad enough to
ayoia partisan obstruction of the pres
ident's plans, but the majority of them,
If history furnishes any warrant for
prophecy, will be, as In the past, "agin
the government." This certainly makes
necessary an unbroken Republican
front.
Possibly some of the Democratic ed
itors wou'.u like to serve on that war
probing commission. The president
should give them a chance.
Wise.
Sad Is tho plaint which comew from
fair Columbia. The Hon. Christy
Kauffm&n, prophet and reformer, has
turned ills back on the people of Lan
caster and will leave them to their
political Idolatry. He tells the com
mittee of one Ruddlph Blankenburg
which boueM to persuade him to head
( fusion ticket: "I have gone over the
matter very carefully, and I cannot see
why It is my duty to stand as a candl-
ditto for the senate. I think I have
lone my full share In trying; to reform
stato affairs, and th.it my friends
should not Insist on my again enter
ing the contoHt for senator. Tlio reo
ord of the Inut legislature should bo
enough to rouse the people of the coun
ty and state to the selection of a better
clnss of legislators, but as they have
failed to assert their manhood and In
dependence at the primaries. 1 have
no nssuritnce that they will do better
at the Eener.il election."
The refusitl of a professionally cood
candidate to run for ofl'.cft when his
constituent don't want him to serve
them Is, to be sure, a matter of pathos:
but upon the whole It is not unwise.
It obviates a lot. of embarrassment on
the day following election day.
When you see In the Philadelphia
Press an accusation ngalnst the Re
publican state organization don't be
lieve It until It Is confirmee'. The
Press Is doing a whole lot of misrepre
senting these ditys, n notnble case In
point bolng Its ridiculous recent asser
tion tlmt the otnte organization had
conspired to defeat C. W. Stone for
re-election to congress. State Chair
man IClkln's unqualified dental vnt not
needed to brand this story as a mall
clous Invention, nor should denials
hereafter be vouchsafed where the
purpose so evidently In to foment dis
cord by unscrupulous deception. ,
Tlio General Commanding.
It would undoubtedly i-nnduce to the
president's ease of mind as well as
to welfare of the military service and
to the satisfaction of the country gen
erally If he would take early occasion
to extinguish finally the annoying
jealousies nnd little conspiracies among
the nrmy olllcers In and about the war
department by indicating clearly who
is In command, und giving smelt sup
port to that person, whether General
Miles, General Corbln or nnothcr, as
shall leave the commanding general
free to give hereafter his whole at
tention to the duties of his position.
In point of rcault3 achieved no 601
dler In the American uniform presents
a large;1 claim to confidence than the
present general in ostensible command,
Nelson A. Miles. Wherever he has
been permitted to put training and
professional experience to tho teat as
against political influence or the vague
ideas emanating from tho civilian cor
ner in the war department confusion
has given way to system nnd chaos
has assumed quickly tj)D semblance or
order. We need not go over recent hls
Iniy to enumerate instances In proof.
They nre fresh in tho public memory
and btcaus? of them tho opinion is
now widespread that Miles Is decided
ly tho man for his present place and
that so long as ho is retained In that
place he should hi Invested with au
thority suuicicnt to Impress his ideas
upon the army and not no kept in a
eontinvnl petty cross-lire.
Hut if there are reasons unknown to
the public why Corbln or some other
person rather than Miles should do the
thinking for the army, we do not re
gard it ns wise that there should be
further hesitancy in putting him for
mally In command, with all that that
Implies. The matter Is not one of per
sons but of principle. We have had
too many heads In our army and It Is
desirable at an early day in get back
to the good old system which served
Lincoln so well In the latter part of
the civil war the system of it com
manding general who actually com
mands. The history of military ex
perience everywhere teaches that this
is the only reliable basis of military
organization: nnd a few more such in
stances of cross-purposes like those
Involved In the episode of tho aban
doned parade of the troops from Porto
Rico nnd Montauk Point will be apt to
convince friends of the president that
the line no less than tho staff needs
his early attention.
A satirical contemporary suggests
that If champagne Is so objectionable
at the christening of battleships the
experiment bo tried of immersing the
ships in ink, which would leave less
of that dangerous fluid on hand for
the use of literary reformers. Many a
weary copy-editor will cheerfully sup
port the amendment.
Judged By Its Fruits.
"Do our adversaries complain that
the Republican party has not support
ed tho school system of the state? My
answer is tbnt more than sixty per
cpnt. of our total state revenues are
given fnr this purpose, and that no
other state between the Atlantic and
Pad'lo oceans provides such liberal
support for the education of tho masse3
In the university of the common peo
ple. Do our adversaries complain that
our penal, eleemosynary, and chari
table institutions nre not properly sup
ported? My answer is that no other
state or territory In this country, from
Passamatjuoddy Ray to Cape Mendo
cino, no, nor Horn Porto Rico around
the globe to Manila, supports these
worthy Institutions so generously ns
our own. Do our adversaries complain
that the moneys of the state have not
been properly cared for? My answer Is
that In the period or time from 1R10
down to and including ISflfc, there have
been paid Into the state treasury al
most four hundred and twenty-five
millions of dollars, not one dollar of
which was ever paid out except, by
warrant of law, and not a single penny
of which was ever lost by reason of tho
default or dishonesty of p. state treas
urer. I doubt If there Is any state,
private business house or financial In
stitution that can point to u record
with such a degree of pride. Do our
enemies complain because the Repub
lican party has not paid the state debt?
My answer Is that in 1S10 the debt of
Pennsylvania was J3C.1CS.52S.10: In
1SC1, after twenty years of Democratic
rule, this debt was Increased to $10.
4tS.213.82. In other vordj. In twenty
years, under a Democratic administra
tion of our state affairs, thero was an
actual Increase In the public debt of
JI.27P.C5S.T2. When the Republican
party came Into power In lffil, the
state debt, as I havo said, was Jlo,
S,I13.82l In 1R71 we had reduced the
public debt to J23,27,S20.r,l; that Is to
say, during the first ten years of Re
publican administration of our state
affairs, although almost Jive of thM
years were years of war, and conse
quently extraordinary tux burdens, the
stnto debt was reduced J11,1CS,S93.3S. In
ISO? the public debt was G,S15,30..47.
The amount In the sinking fund on the
ilrst day of December, 1SS7, was $3,310,
C38.69, leaving the uctual publlo debt
nrter applying the sinking fund set
apart for that purpose, $1,274,GG6.8. In
tha thirty-seven years of Republican
rule In the state our debt has been
reduced $39,165,547.01. Tho average nn
mini reduction in these thirty-seven
years was Sl.058,474.21.
"Fellow Republicans, Is there any
thing in this record for which the Re
publican party need upologlze?" State

The Philadelphia Press predicts that

Anarchy Here and
Across the Wafer.
From tho New York Hun.
n S MIGHT bo expected, the apsassln
Ml atlun of the emprtfs of Austria has
111 culled forth from the European
r press a universal expression of .re
ttontment nt tlio dastardly crime,
nnd a clunior for thi adoption of severe
nieusutcn to prevent a it petition of it.
The stamping out of anarchists and of
aimtclilstln sentiments by tho most rig
oroin legislation Is demanded, and an ut
tempt at complying with the demand is
quite possible. Here, In tbls country, tie
sentiment afouecd by the assassination
Is equally profound, but It docs not differ
from that Inspired by any other shock
ing homicide. To ub a woman la n wo
man, whether she bo an empress or tho
humblest nf her sex, and her unprovoked
murder excites loathing and disgust,
lather than ungcr.
o
Anarchism Is nothing more than the
tago of unintelligent men und women
against other men and women whom tho
course of events 1ms placed in conditions
seemingly n ore favorable to comfort and
happiness thar those In which they find
themselves. At bottom It is the same
spirit of envy which Inspired the first
mutder recorded in history. Cnlu killed
Abel because "the Lord had respect unto
Abel nnd his offering, but unto Cain and
his offering he had no respect." Conse
quently, we are told. Cain was very
wroth with his brother, roc up against
him and slew him. So, In like manner,
tho anarchist. Is wroth with all the hu
man beings who apparently enjoy moro
of thu dlvlno favor than he does, and, on
opportunity, bluys them,
-o
Though anarchists, as has been said,
nro unintelligent, they aro not necessarily
uneducated. In fact, they comprise
among them men of considerable Intel
lectual cultivation, who nre tho moro in
furiated against their fortunate fellow
men for tho very reason that their desires
have by their cultivation become keener
and stronger than they otherwise would
have been. What they get or this woria s
goods Is so much less than what th;y
would like to get. that, with Cain, they
tiro ready to kill thoso who have succeed
ed where they have failed. Hence, among
the most ardent revolutionists, and dc
clalmers against the existing order of
thing nro persons of literary attain
ments, who can put Into words what I'iss
Instructed pcoplo feci but cannot cxprosi.
Is obvious, therefore, that no legisla
tion can suppress uncrrhlsm. It is a vice
of human nature wnlch police measures
cannot eradicate. The crimes It Inspires
must be dealt with like other crimes,
and, like thrm, will be frequent or Infre
quent, accoidng to circumstances. In
Europe It takes tho form of assassinating
emperors nnd other rulers; In this coun
try It provokes assaults upen reputations
and incites spoliation!! under the form of
law. Tho vituperation which some of
our newspapers arc continually pouring
out upon tho rich men of the country
nnd upon official functionaries who havo
failed to conciliate them, Is essentially
nnnrchlsllr, nnd. If unchecked by publlo
condemnation, It may lead to nssasslnn
tlon here, as It has abroad. President
Lincoln, President Garfield and Mayor
Hanrlson, of Chicago, fell victims to It,
as did the Emperor Alexander of Russia,
President Carnot of France. Senor Ca
novns of Spain, and now tho empress of
Austria.

A WONDERFUL WAR.
From the New York Sun,
Tho main facts of tho war are too Im
portant and too helpful and too credit
able to tlio countty for them to bo burled
beneath borrow nt the war's accidents or
resentment ut tho defects of Its adminis
tration. Leaving out tho Incalculable po
litical benefits of victory, tho army's re
cord would remain surprising after proof
of every fault charged against any ofil
clal connected with It, In or out of uni
form. o-
Evcn if General Shatter had been ns In
competent a commander at Santiago
as disapproving criticism declares ho
was, the campaign theio closed with suc
cess of scarcely paralleled brilliancy, and
tho Amerlcnn who would rather condemn
Shatter than rejolre In his nrmy's tri
umph falls In due appreciation of It, Even
If Secretary Alger had been tho most in
competent and unworthy secretary that
ever sat in tho war department, tho to
tal of actual achievement on the part of
that bureau, In comparison wltn the num
ber of troops supplied, would still sur
pass all precedents.
If tho sick who havo coino back to us
from tho awful climate of Cuba had suf
fered from blunders and neglect in tho
full measures charged against tho war
department, it would remain true that the
cure and comforts given to them have
far exceeded any standnrds ever berore
known In armies. Tho total death list Is
peculiarity small. It has been n wonder
ful war, of wlich, after It Is all finally
over, the marks of grief nnd misfortune
will be marvellously few. but tho marks
of national glor will be bread, deep, and
Indelible.
