While the editor undoubtedly frel that in older to keep up the icputatlon of the Times as an advance sheet of calamity it Is neecspiuy to emit an occassional war vlioop at sound money, there Is no question that our fault-finding" con tempoiary fully icallzes that the silver Issue Is a nebulous ghost nloiy. Soldiers' Belief Association. Tho amount of good that has been iiuletly done hy the Soldiers" Relief association of this city cannot be ens lly estimated. When the Thlitccnth teglment was called to the front a num. her of the city's htibstantlal citizens met, and Impelled by motives of the purest patriotism and ch.uity decided that they would do their utmost to wile for the dependent loved ones of the brave boys who responded to the president's call for olunteers. IJuiIng the months that have elapsed Mnic war was declaied upwaids of fifteen hundred dollais have been paid out by the association and It Is now caring for sixty families whose heads aie enlisted In Uncle Sam's fighting force. Now that the war is piactically over the ahtodutlon feels that its work Is done. It Is assisting in securing for heads of families nn honoiable dis charge from the service, that they may return to thclt oidlnaiy peaceful pur suits and care for their dependent ones. At a meeting of the association held yesterda a resolution was passed directing thut the business of the as sociation bo wound up by November 1 If possible. By that time It Is confidently believed that all those who deslrp to return to their families, cm have secured their discharges nnd returned to their homes. After that theli families, of course, will have no need of the kind offices of tho association When Sci.mton's shaie In the present war is written a glowing page will un doubtedly be devoted to unselfish men who oigautzed the lellef association and carried on Its work. And now the Demneiatie organs complain because Colonel Stone has definitely stated that ho has not staited out with the Intention of tin owing mud and taunt him with the hint that If ho knew nnj thing bad about the other fel low h he would tell It. Firemen's State Convention. The State Kli emeu's association has decided to hold Its next convention In Scianton and It will have no causo to i egret that decision. Scranton has had vast expedience In handling large conventions within iccent yearn and enn be depended upon to make nn un usual effort to enteitnln the gallant lire flghteis of the state who so bravely risk life and limb In the service of the community where they leslde Scranton has as fine u volunteer de partment as the country possesses. In It are hundreds of men who gladly and willingly give their sei vices to pio tect their neighbors property and act ually pay for tho privilege, for they must assist In supporting the oigan Izatlons they are members of With such high examples of devotion to tho highest duties of citizenship before them, Scranton can be depended up on to give the lepresentatlves of the firemen of the state a coidlal welcome, and a royal greeting. It should be the duty of those who will havo charge ot tho arrangements for the convention to discourage and prevent ns much as possible, an Influx of hoodlums such as visited Wilkes Bane one year ago and made night and day hideous. They were not lire men, but by their conduct nnd assump tion of the privileges Intended for tlu men, they bi ought reproach on these vvoithy men. Thero will ho no room for such In Horantrtn when the state convention meets here In October, 1S93. ' Wllkes-Rarre's action In voting for New Castle was scarcely sisterly and nn Inexcusable violation of a pledge made to the Scrunton booincis. It la In stiong contiast with Scranton's gen erous conduct In insisting; Wilkes Uunc to capture tho statu convention two yours nBo.

Wlllard, chairman of the Republican county committee, has taken up the work of the campaign with his customniy encigy, the kind of energy Unit pioduccs results. He has suiioundcd himself with a corps of cnpablo assistants and nlieady has tho detail work of the campaign well In hnnd I.ltorutuie concerning tin party candidates und the Issues of this cnmpalgn nie being sent to nil pnits of the county und within a week ar rangements will have been completed for it series of public meetings, em bracing all parts of the county. A Significant Question. "The Pacific Is llghtfully within our commercial spheie. Wo hold one shore nnd we aie nearest the other. Euiope must cross two oceans to the Otlent nnd we but one. Why should wo not peacefully nnd providently avail ourselves of the commercial advantages wlth.n our grasp?" riom Ohmles Bmory Smith's grcnt speech at Omaha, . . ."pain seems to lesemble the prisoner In n imtutcr tilnl. Everything must bo twisted turned nnd delayed In order to give her a fair trial and the "benefit of the doubt." Cheap Living. Tht- advocates of si stems of cheap living peilodicnlly appear with lules and examples beating upon the science of sustaining life at n nominal cost. A contemporary iccently published a statement showing that six hundred peisons In a ccituln sanitarium, con ducted on vegetarian pilnclplcs, nie supplied with food at an nveragc of eighty-five cents per week for each in dividual. Fish, flesh and fowl ate, of enuise, Interdicted, and milk, butter and eggs ate used only in small quan tities'. Judging ftom a standpoint of econ omy In cost of food the expctlment may bo consldcied n success, but In Its effect upon tho lctlms tho result may not have been so encouraging. Some wheie n witty writer has lemaiked that one should live to eat nnd not eat to live; Intimating that those who live to eat generally do not live vciy long Successful followers ot the vego tat Ian fad can be found all about us but they are usually people who have followed nearly every other fad that has been Invented to amuse uneasy per sons who become wear of life for want of occupation The bone and sinew ot the land ate composed of people who partake model ntely, peihaps, of flesh, fish and fow 1 and do not exist in a giudglng iminner. The examples of longevity whose names appear in coun tiy exchanges aie geneially the stuidy pioneeis who have attended to the wants of the Inner man with goodly portions of the "stalled ox" at the proper time. As nn exchange icmatks, there Is unquestionably much waste In the av erage American household, nnd ln tempetance Is by no means confined to Indulgence hi spirituous boveiages. Many phs!clans will bear testimony that a laigc piopoitlon of the Ills that flesh is hell to come from icckless and habitual ovei eating Yet, In spite of all this, it will be dllllcult to convince In telligent nnd unprejudiced people that the w oi Id's welfnie would be Inct eased by the unlveisal adoption of a form ot diet that would exclude all the tnoie costly kinds of food. The expei ience of the masses Is a safer guide in this respect than the theories ot Individuals, and that exper ience has shown that In the climate of the greatei pot Hon of the United States a varied and liberal diet, including both fish and meat, Is demanded. Leaving out of consideration nil questions as to the gratification of the palate. It Is evident that sin b a sweeping change ns that urged the advocates of cx tieme slinplU . mil economy In diet, would wink n complete revolution in the existing social and Industrial struc ture. Tho prosperity of modem so ciety has been built upon a basis of genet ous expendltuie for the needs ot the body. If mankind weie to lestilct Its purchases of food to the necessaries of bare existence, what would become of tho dull, puultij and meat-pioduc-Ing Industries, fiom which so' many millions now obtain a livelihood? ih fits modest testimony before the war Investigating commission General Joseph Wheeler has unconsciously demonstrated that he was one of tho heroes If not the heio of the Santiago campaign. Ills evident deslie to speak a kind woid for his brother ofllceis whenever an opportunity is offeicd stamps him us the Ideal of the gener ous and chivalrous southern gentle man. A Needless Saciitlce. The tragic- state of affalis In tho battle with the Indians in Minnesota is but another Illustration of the folly of the time honored consei vatlsm observed In our mllltaiy dealings with the Indians tribes disposed to be tioublesome The little handful of troops on their Island was at the mer cy of the Infuriated led skins who, with customary kind, governmental permission, had been provided with first class fliearms and a plentiful supply of ammunition, with an accompaniment of bud whiskey. The military code of the United States Is such that the sol diers must practically wait until their number has been depleted by tho murderous file from ambush before they are allowed to protect themselves. The wisdom of sending a body of troops to cope with n tribe of In dians who had long been In an ugly mood over fnncied wrongs Is on n par with the tactics resulting In many pre vious massacres of our soldlcis. The appointment of "Coin" Harvey as general manager of the Democratic, party has caused consternullon In cer tain quaiters. The Idea of attempting to pei Simla gold Democrats to come Into the fold with the lightning calou- lator of the iMlver wing ns manager Is preposterous. "Coin" Harvey Is the bogle man who has Invariably' chased gold Democrats to tho woods. After poisonnl Investigation covering all tho Islands Colonel llcnty Hull gives It In the Pittsburg Times ns his opinion thnt, "apau from the MriUeglu advantages gained by having the Isl ands for ni naval and coaling station, a fortified point wheie our men-of-war and tioopshlps can stop In Hofety to refit and reeonl, a hulf-wny houo In the gient Vitclflc oitan, which seems destined to be the scene of wonderful developments In the future, whete tho merchantmen which should 'be busy tariylng Uip products of Uip northwest nnd of the whole tount'ry to the mar kets of the vast populations ot the Orient can call for onleis so soon as n cable shall be, laid, tho United States has really gained no gtcnt advantages by the annexation of Hawaii." Well, these nre sufllclent. American promoters who Imagine thnt money grows on bushes In Cuba, Porto Rico and Hawaii wilt no doubt be made to realize In tunny Instances that It takes money to buy the busheis The representative nf a Philadelphia syndicate who iccently visited I'orto Rico has brought back icports that aie lather discouraging to the smnll capi talist It seems thnt tho natives have already begun to expei lence the effects of the pioverblal boom, nnd have ad vanced leal estate to figures calculated to stagger the most sanguine town lot agitator. Not them capitalists as a mle will do well to keep their funds within calling distance to allow the natives to do the developing for several years hence. Certain contempomilcs about the country exhibit considerable glee in reeordirg the statement that the rep resentatives of Agulnaldo nre not to be allowed nn opportunity of being heard before tho Paris pence commis sion. If tho affairs In tho Phl'Ipplnes are really to bo conducted In the In terest of humanity it would seem that there Is nothing particularly brazen In the lequest ot Agonclllo to be allowed the chance of lefutlng the statements of tho Spanish liars who will doubtless be given unlimited license bcfoie the commission. Gpneral Uoynton's s-tuteinent nt the Investigation that each regi ment had something worse than a sut ler and that was a canteen, and that 8TJ carloads of beer bud been sold around Camp Thomas, may give some Idea to the public as to the cause ot a portion at least of the sickness preva lent. General Roynton certainly can be classed nmong those strongly against the canteen system nnd In tin or of the work of the Voting Men's Cbtlstlan association In camp. If Spain is to have another licking it is no moie than light that it should be admlnlsteied soon and give Colonel Hilly Rtynn a chance to make a recoul. Philadelphia has always prided her self consideiably on her blue book. Now a red book of hers promises to come In for u shate of distinction. Kdltois who have exhausted the 1.1 II ing Chang yellow vest joke nnd are at loss for a pnagiaph now turn their battel ies of wit upon Agulnaldo.

We havo dovincd ways of J converting oies with which na ture has so plentifully endowed the enrth Into merchantable lion and steel on so vast a scale that wo fall to find any busts of comparison In tho past hlstoiy of tha woild. Ages and ages ago man enieiged fiom the stone no and learned the secret of the manutactuto of metals, thereby seiurlng his most po tent weapon In his struggle with the foices of nature. Prom the time of tho llrst discovery, for thousands of years, he advanced slowly In tho perfection of the original procetfes, until within (ho time of the memory of men still living, when, in the space ot scarcely moro than n generation, our powers and laclllttes in tills direction were multiplied more than a thuitsandfold, and the production ot Iron und steel In a single yiar now prob ably equals thnt of a thousand years in lor to the beginning of tho present cen tury. ti lt If the great factor In the world 'o day. It enters into everything from the icadv steel tools that we cairy In out pockets, costing a few cents, lo the giant steamships of steel which tiaverso tho oceans on errands of war or peace. I write this article by the aid of a ma- chlno of steel, It is put 111 tpyo by nn othet marvelous machine of steel, and when pl.ucd In Its proper placo on tho page another Heel mechanism, a product of the prcent generation, prints and folds the paprs at an Incredible speed. We nio given to no end of boasting over theso nciiltvcmeiits, but now comes along a prophet who sajs it will not last. o Ono Gustnv l.lcdcnthnl, In nn iiitlele In tho Engineering Magazine, savs: ' In ill probability the steel nno will bo tho shoitest In history. It will end at a tlm peihaps, no farther lemovcd lrom the prent than tho pieent 1r from the time of the Crusades, in Europe nnd America, at least, steel bildges will be tnen crea tions of tho past. This will be so. be cause, for the production of steel and Iron in largo masses, fuel In large quantities is necessary. Chaicoal was tho exclusive fuel and reducing agent befoio mlnclal coal was used. Oii'-e the mlniial ii'ols (coal, petroleum natural giis or tnelr products) aie exnausted, the production ol lion must tcvert to the limitations of the charcoal period Authotltlcti esti mate that the io.il fields of Europe and Ameilcu. will Inst fiom 4' to 1.50O yeats longi r. 'those of Axla and Africa nrc not yet fullv known. Measured by tho age or tho Egyptlin pyramids, the steei i,e will, therefore, bo of short duration, but the mo-d sloilous in the history of man kind. Tho expectation that progress In the sciences will dlscovir new ways of making Iron and steel In largo masses without fuel, or with very llltlo met, can not be fulfilled. Power lor mechanical purposes, mankind will be able to obtain from the four otliei rich sources or n.i tiue( wind, tides, witci falls and the heat of tho sun), but mlnclal fuil Is the only great source of power which can also be used for the reduction of lion oics. Onco gone, it cannot bo replaced oi repro duced. Moreovci. the development and most extensive use or the four other sources of power cannot bo achieved without metals, and, foremost, without Iron and steel for the necessary appli ances, machinery and structures. With out coal, no Iron and steel, without lion and steel In gieat masses, no gieat ma chinery for utilizing the sources of powei. o lt will be seen that while the writer places a limit to the production of steel he yet gives us considerable time, such a length of time. Indeed, that the begin ning of tho end will not be felt lor many generations to come. But however long postponed, the end of the fuel will come nt last. It will be observed that he not only Bhuts off our supply of steel by rea son of tho failure of fuel, but would ap pear to shut off the progress of civiliza tion itselt In so far as It depends on ma chinery. Ho leaves us no loophole of cs capo nfter the -upply of the kinds of fuel at picsent in vogue have been used up. He Is the same sort of piophet as Sir William Crookes. who In a recent ad dress, after showing that tha pi ogress ot the world depended on the supply or wheat preceeded to tell us that In a little over thirty years thero would bo a world- wme Limine, aim mat, alter that, wo would havo to depend for a full supply on the Improbable ivent of being able to churn nitrogen out of the atmosphere. o Even If l.lcdcnthnl is coircct it by no means follows that wo could not continue to advance in civilization and culture without iron and steel In such masses ns wo aro necustomed to at present. In nearly every ago there have arisen prophets who wcio ablo to glvo good tea sons for tho belief that was In them that mankind was either destined speedily to perish from the earth or to lapst into barbarism: but mankind has never waited long to glvo a practical contradiction to such prophecies.
