Hnstings Answers Swallow.
The attention of ovorv honest cltzen
of Pennsylvania will ho commanded
by the remarkable speech of Governor
Hnstings made- at Philadelphia on Sat
urday evening and reported substan
tially In full In this issue of The Tri
bune. This t-peeeh Is the tnos?t com
prehensive and specific answer which
lias been made durlne: the campaign
to the various charges which have been
brought In certain quarters nsjalnst
the integrity of the present state ad
ministration and each fair-minded vo
ter who h?s listened to these accusa
tions will be glad to give equal con
sideration to the defense.
With regard to the specifications of
"crime and culpability produced by Dr.
Swallow the governor does not evade
anything but lakes them up separately
and shows In each instance just how
false they arc. C'omparifion of accus
ation with the fact is fatal to Dr.
Swallow's c.is-e. The governor makes
clear that the Prohibition candidate
for govt-.rnori tnstcud of taking his al
leged evidence of asserted official mal
feasance to the district attorney of
Dauphin county, where both morally
and legally It llrst belongs, has delib
erately statod through the press and
on tho platform what "he must have
Known at the time and eanro ln.lt
t ste now wetv untiuths, absolute
ly at variance with the recorded facts,
appatently for the sole purpose, of ac
cumulating personal political capital.
Not ot.ly is each iharge exploded ut
terly, but the further fact Is made
manifest that at the very time- that
.Dr. Swallow ha;, been proclaiming
criminal extravagance In the purchase
of state supplies ho lias been charging
in the book store over which ho pre
sides from li to P.OC per cent, more for
many of these supplies than the state
now pays under the administration
wlilvh he so viciously attacks. We
leave it to Dr. Swallow's own support
ers to decide whether the governor's
meeting ol tho Issuer raised by tho
"fighting parson" l not manly,
straightforward and complete.
While defending from undeserved
aspersion, as any man ot honor must,
th3 official character of the executive
and of thou In office responsible to
him, Governor Hastings makes no
apology for Republicans who by be
trayal of their trust bring shame upon
the party. Hesays he would not himself
vote, much less ask his fellow-citizens
to vote, for a smirched legislator and
In this attitude he is in line with the
best Republican sentiment. Rut he al
so draws attention to the fact that the
Republican party Is abundantly able to
do Its own house-cleaning and Is not
in need of a Democratic receivership.
The speech throughout Is character
lied by candor, courage and manliness
and It deserves to be read by every
Pennsylvania!!.
France, like Spain, needs less "hon
or" and more horse sense.
The Overshadowing Duty.
"The people have borne the additional
taxation made necessary by tho war
with the same degree of patriotism that
characterized the soldier who unlisted
to fight the country's battle. We huve
not only prospered In every material
sense, but we have established n sen
timent of good feeling and a spirit of
brotherhood such as the nation has not
enjoyed since the earlier years of Its
history. Not since the beginning of the
agitation of the question of slavery
has there been such a common bond
In name and purpose; such genuine af
fection, such ft unity of the sections,
such obliteration of party and geo
graphical divisions. National pride has
been again enthroned, national patri
otism has been restored, tho national
union cemented closer and stronger, the
love for th old tng enshrined In all
hearts. North and South have mingled
their best blood In a common cause and
today rejoice In a common victory.
"Wt must guard this restored linlon
with xealous and sacred enre, and,
whlln nwaltlng the settlements of the
war nnd meeting the problems which
will follow, we must stand ns one man,
not In the spirit of putty, but united In
a common effort for that which will
give to the nation Its widest Influence
In Its sphere of activity and usefulness
to which the war has assigned It, Let
nothing distract us; let no discordant
voice Intrude to embarrass us In the
solution of the mighty problems, which
Involve such vast consequences to our
selves nnd our posterity. Let us re
member that God bestows upon no na
tion supreme opportunity which is not
ready to icspond to the call of supreme
duty." President McKlnley at St.
Louis.
Governor Hastings does not believe
that It Is necessary to kill the Repub
lican patient In order to secure n few
minor nllments, und the common sense
of the statu will agree wllh him.
Moral Incentives.
There arc pome Cubans fur-sighted
enough not to expect miracles the min
ute the flag of Spain Is lowered nt
Havana. One of these, a member of
the famous New York Junta, I-'. O.
Plcrra, writing to the Chicago Record
from Havana, holds thnt the political
aspects of the Immediate future of that
Island ure of vastly smaller moment
than questions of popular education
iini employment, lie recognizes that
a community Is likely to have under al
most any system just about as good
government ns Its average Intelligence
nnd morality will call for and sustain,
hence his chief concern is ns to how
the next generation of his countrymen
shall be educated.
"We need," says he, "to engage some
experienced educator who wIM come
here not for the salary alone, but with
the same spirit that American troop.
'nine recently to Santiago, take the
raw conditions here and evolve a "oni
innii. school system for tho future ages.
Lea e behind the mistakes. Take the
best features of all the state systems
of the United States und plant them
here. Then, when the common schools
are In operation, wo want some schools
like Hampton and Tuskegee Indus
trial, scholastic. Christian. We
MAtit also such schools as the various
religious bodies have In the south.
Will the United States help us to have
them? Where nro the moral forces
that sent American ships of war to
our coasts'"
This line of thought Is capable of
Indefinite elaboration. Not to our gov
ernment alone ban the war with Spain
brought new opportunities and respon
sibilities. The peoples over whom
we have by reason of this war ac
quired guardianship make appeals to
American phllanthrophy, benevolence
nnd Christianity entirely apart from
mutters of state. Tho spirit which
sends missionaries and martyrs to re
mote centers of semi-barbarism and
which recognizes no limits of moral re
sponsibility narrower than those which
bound the habitable portions of the
globe cannot fall to take un especial
Interest und to put forth especial en
"ii try In these provinces which a war
for humanity has recently put under
direct American trusteeship. No long
er will these provinces fall within the
sphere of "foreign missions," respect
ing the propriety of which there are
some differences of opinion; they will
hereafter be parts of our own domain,
temporarily If not permanently attach
ed to the great republic; and human
ity, neighborly considerations, fair
play and a sense of civic pride will
unitedly prompt good Americans, in
dividually not less than collectively,
to do for these new wards even more
than we should feel obligated to do
for alien unfortunates under other
flags.
It is an axiom peculiarly true of
the American character that the best
that 1? In n man doe not show un
til extraordinary conditions force It to
the front. In the r-nst generation the
people of the United States, busied
chiefly with internal problems of bus
iness development, have seemed In
some degree mercenary and deficient
In responsiveness to moral and spirit
ual nromptlnr;3. The finer clay was
there, but It was not drawn to the
surface. The war with Spain has put
before this people new conditions and
new duties; while It has opened new
vistas to commeerce and new Incen
tives to business enterprise it has
Immeasureably enlarged and Inspired
the public's moral vision, calling Into
exercise dormant capabilities and lift
Ins Incalculably the level of the peo
ple's Ideals. We should have In con
sequence not i-imply better results In
politics and In government, but also
appreciable Improvement In individual
HvOtg. The appeal of Cuba, Porto
Rico and the Philippines is to every
American citizen; In calling him to
help others It will necessariuly. uplift
himself.
Ag the prebldent has stood by the
country so t.hould the country at the
ensuing election stand by him.
Extortionate Train Charges.
In the last ten yearn there has been
hardly an article of necessity entering
into human wonts which has not be
come cheaper In price because of labor
saving appliances and other reductions
In the cost ot Its production. One con
spicuous exception, however, must be
noted In the matter of sleeping car
charges. Ordinary railway fares and
railway profits have declined steadily
until tho people of the United States,
all factors fairly considered, enjoy tho
cheapest transportation to be found In
the world; but during all these years
of general reduction the Pullman com
pany has kept rigidly to its old-time
schedule of charges, notwithstanding
that Its expenses have each year grown
less for each car operated by It. Tho
consequence Is that tho Pullman com
pany. In addition to paying continu
ously largo dividends, even when gen
eral business conditions have been de
pressed, has recently had to Increase
Its capital some $18,000,000, In order to
utilize a surplus fund which had be
come so large as to be burdensome.
In view of these facts, the reported
Intention of a number of leading rail
roads using Pullman cars to Jointly ap
peal to the Pullman company to order
a reduction In Its fares Is readily ap
preciable, As the matter stands the
Pullman company has In many sec
tions practically a monopoly o the
sleeping car business and can be de
cidedly Independent; nevetlheless It Is
not so far removed from competition
or from legislation that It can afford
to bo extortionate, A number of rail
roads have already fought It success
fully. And without reference to this
aspect of the case, It ought to bo clem
to the management of this company
that n reasonable reduction In Its pi Ices
would not bo likely In the least to
diminish Its revenues or Its net profits.
Where one traveler Is now willing to
pnv, say, $2.50 for a berth for one night
In n sleeping car. two travelers could
soon be secured ns putrons nt a charge
of Sl.flO or $2.
No business law Is better established
than that many sales with small mar
gins are preferable to only a few sales
with large margins. The whole tend
ency of business la In this direction.
Railroads have been forced to recog
nize the fact In their ordinary fares,
and It Is In every respect Just that
charges for sleeping car privileges
should come down In proportion. This
Is not a matter concerning the Pull
man corporation alone; It concerns di
rectly every mnn who travels. The In
terest of the public demands that Pull
man overcharging should cease.
Here Is a chunk of solid truth from
the New York Sun: "Every European
enemy or rival ot this country, with
Spain of course nt the front, Is pray
ing that the next congress of the Ameri
can Union shall be Democratic."
GOVERNOR HASTINGS
ANSWERS SWALLOW
Concluded from Puce 1.
trie attorney general to Institute
feedings of this character.
pro-
I do not know who his attorney Is or
where he gets his advice. The attor
ney general has, however, addressed to
me a communication on the subject,
which I will now road to you. It Is ns
follows:
"Otllce of the Attorney General,
Harrlsburg, Oct. 10, 1888.
"Daniel H. Hastings, governor:
"Sir: It has been chutged by one of
the candidates for governor of this
commonwealth that sundry public of
Uclals have been guilty of wrongdoing,
and that under the law the attorney
general only Is clothed with the duty
and the power to prosecute. In answer
to your Inquiry as to whether such Is
or is not the case, 1 respectfully sub
mit that there Is not only no such duty
Imposed upon the attorney general In
his official capacity, but that It Is the
right of any citizen, having knowledge
of the facts, to make Information be
fore any alderman or Justice of the
peace in the commonwealth, cause a
warrant to be Issued, and the person
charged with the offense duly tried,
whether he be a public official or a pri
vate Individual.
"The same candldnte for governor has
on repeated occasions stated to Ills
audiences that he has called upon the
attorney general to Institute proceed
ings of this character. 1 believe It to
be due to you and to the public, as well
ns to myself, to say that the candidate
referred to has never, dlrectlv or In
directly, mentioned the subject to me,
and, of course, has furnished not u
syllable of evidence to sustain any
charge that he has made; nor has he-.
In any of his public utterances, shown
that he possessed any evidence that
would be admissible In any court In
any civilized country In the world.
"Very respectfully,
"Henry C. McCormlck,
"Attorney Geneial."
As Abraham Lincoln, in speaking of
a candidate, once said: "If the people
like th's kind of n man, this Is a very
good man for the people to like," If
the people of the state want this kind
of a man for governor to enforce the
laws, to do Justice to all and wrong to
none, to safeguard their lives, their
property and their character, If they
want such a man, this Is a very good
man for them to vote for.
CONCERNING JENKS.
The plan of campaign under the
leadership of Mr. Jenks, the distin
guished candidate of the Democratic
party, Is both Ingenious and delusive.
Its dally cry is that there is nothing
but "State Issues" Involved. There is
a dally presentation of a large array of
figures to show that under Republican
administration the cost of government
has been ruinously and outrageously In
creased; that there Is a vicious nnd
reckless extravagance which nothing
will halt excepting the success of the
Democratic party at the polls.
This hostility of the distinguished
Democratic candidate to the Republi
can party is not new. It did not begin
with his nomination for governor. He
has not been In sympathy with the Re
publican party for many years; not, I
believe, since he became a voter. Ho
was surely not In sympathy with the
Republican party during the War of
the Rebellion, It is a pleasure to listen
now to his eloquent eulogies of Abra
ham Lincoln and other founders of the
Republican party, and this pleasure Is
only marred by the recollection of the
fact that from '61 to '6r, when Lincoln
needed sympathy and support In tho
great struggle to keep one flag above
a united country, he did not have thn.
effervescing sympathy from the Demo
cratic candidate which his memory Is
having today.
Mr. Jenks Is now so busy pointing
out the necessity for reform In Penn
sylvania, so much occupied In telling
what ought to he done and what he
surely will do when he comes into the
gubernatorial office; what will be done
for the amelioration and relief of all
classes and particularly the laboring
people, that he has not yet found time
to use his excellent diction and as
semble his powerful arguments to ex
press his abhorrence of the position
taken by the Republican party on the
financial questions of the day. When
one reads his glowing tributes to the
doctrine of free silver, his terrific
tirades against the Republican party
for Its championship of the gold stand
ard: and his phllltpplcs against the
members of his own party who separ
ated themselves from him and his free
silver faction and aided in tho election
of President McKlnley; when we read,
now. in com type, ids fervid denuncia
tions, philosophic deductions nnd im
passioned appeals to the voters of tho
state of Indiana two years ngo for the
free silver candidate for governor, we
are tempted to wonder why he doesn't
bring to bear his admitted abilities
both as a lawyer und orator to defeat
the Republican candidates for congress
In this state, every one of whom stands
for American protection and favors the
gold standard and opposes the free sil
ver heresy and will vote that way when
they get back to congress.
ASHAMED OF HIS OPINIONS.
I submit It to the candid Judgment
of the people of this state if the Demo
cratic candidate for governor does not
occupy the position of a man who ap
pears to be ashamed of his opinions on
national questions and tries to conceal
them and seeks to divert attention from
them by appealing to those prejudices
which now exist against certain Indi
vidual members of the Republican
party. The Republican majority and
tho Republican candidates are In his
way. He muBt get them out of his way
to accomplish his ambition nnd the
people of the state must determine for
themselves whether there Is sufficient
cause In the present conditions to war
rant thin In turning the state over to
the free sliver, free trade party, whose
candidate declines to meet the Issue In
the decision of which their vote will be
cast.
I nm amused by the tables of flgutcs
presented by himself nnd his fellow
orators to show the reckless extrava
gance of the present Republican ad
ministration. I hold In my hand a
newspaper containing a comparative
table setting forth the expenses of the
executive department of the state gov
ernment for the llrst two yeurs each
of the administrations of Governor
Reaver, Republican; Governor Paul
son, Democrat, and tho present admin
istration, The table states thnt the cost
of the executive department for the
first two years of Governor Paulson's
administration was JRl.03S.ao, and that
the cost of the fltst two vears of the
present administration Is 152,800, show
ing that by the reckless expenditures of
money In the executive department, 1
have spent In the two comparative
years SfU.70 more than Governor Pat
tlson spent. These figures If true and
believed by the people of the state,
would show that I had been derelict In
economy at least to the amount of $Sil.
70 In two years, but the figure man
failed to state that In ISO", In Governor
Paulson's term, the salnry of the lleu
tennnt governor wns Increased from
$3,000 per year to $5,000 per year, mak
ing for the two years $4,000, which,
under the law, had to be paid In my
administration. Now If this figure man
will give me credit for the $4,000, for
which I was not responsible, and which
was Incurred by a Democratic admin
istration. It will be found that the cost
of the executive department of the
stnte government during those years of
my administration was $3,158.30 less
than for the corresponding two years
of the Democratic administration.
I nm not calling attention to this to
criticize Governor Pattison, hut only to
exhibit a sample or specimen of the
statements now being made to divert
attention from the teal issues In the
campaign.
RECKLESS ASSERTION RIDDLED.
There has been so much reckless as
sertion about the alleged extravagance
nnd enormous expense of the state gov
ernment tljnt I was determined to as
certain the cost per capita per year of
the running expenses of the state gov
ernments of three representative
states, und selected New York and
Ohio to make a comparison with Penn
sylvania. Professor Hamilton, of the
State college, to whom I have already
referred as one of the most accom
plished statisticians in the stnte or
country, wns detailed by me to per
form this work. He has gone fully
Into the detailed expenditures at Co
lumbus and Albany, as well as at Har
rlsburg. The total expenses In Ohio
and Pennsylvania were assembled for
the last fiscal year, hut It was Impos
sible to obtain correct figures for New
York later than for the year ending
September BO, 1896, so that, while the
fiscal year of 189" is used in Pennsyl
vania, ami Ohio, the fiscal year of 18!tn
Is the basis for New York. In each
case the census of 1S0O was used to as
certain the rate per capita, and I am
now able to say. on the authority of
Professor Hamilton, who has furnished
mo with the figures, that
The cost tier capita In Pennsylvania
Is 10.8 cents
The cost per capita In Ohio is. 11.4 cents
The cost per capita In New York
Is 17.7 cents
STATE TREASURY.
The mnnaBement of the state treas
ury has for many years been the sub
ject of public criticism. While It may
bo true that the state has lost no
moneys deposited in the various banks
throughout the commonwealth, It can
not be questioned that the public funds
have been used for political purposes
by depositing them In favorite banks
where such deposits were expected to
yield returns In the shape of political
Influence. This system cannot1 be de
fended. The legislature at Us last ses
sion passed n bill providing for the
payment of Interest on deposits in such
banks as have the custody of the state
funds. While this Is an frnprovement,
It does not. In my judgment, meet the
difficulty and correct the evil. It should
not be In the power of the stnte treas
urer, or of any man or men controlling
him, to say what banks shall handle
the millions of dollars that 'are an
nually paid Into the state treasury. It
would be far better for the state to
receive no Interest upon the deposits
than to suffer a system to continue
which can be used for partisan political
purposes, and, in my Judgment, the evil
will never be corrected until the state
keeps In her own vaults, as does tho
United States and many of the states,
the moneys that she owns. Legisla
tion of this character, T believe, would
be to the Interest of all the people nnd
be n step toward better government.
If It be argued that this would be lock
ing up the public funds and taking
them out of circulation, my answer Is
that they should be promptly paid nut
to the schools and penal and charit
able Institutions and the cities and
counties that are entitled to them ac
cording to law, and not withheld ns
they have been.
NOT APOLOGIZING.
1 am not here to apologize for or to
ask you to vote to return to our legis
lative halls those who betrayed the
trust reposed In them by the constitu
encies thnt honored them. The public
ofllciul who commits a crime or betrays
his trust becomes an enemy of his party
as well as of his state. He disgraces
and Injures his party more than him
self anil for him there should not b
even standing room. The Republican
party Is composed of honest men, and
he Is no true Republican who receives
his party's preferment only to betray
his tri'st.
Prudent bankers do not go out of
huslne.-B because they discover the
peculations of a dishonest teller. The
thrifty farmer who finds his barn In
fested with vermin will not burn down
the building filled with the year's crops
only for the purpose of ridding him
self of the nests. Our victorious hosts
at Santiago did not throw down their
arms ani1 rurrender to the enemy be
cause some quartet-musters failed in his
duty, or the commlsMiry noslected to
bring forward the rntions or the hos
pitals wen- remiss In enrlnT for sick
and wounded. No. they scaled the
heights of Kl Caney und planted the
flag on the summit and looked after
the malingerer when the battle was
won.
Neither will the Republican party,
with all its glorious history and all its
achievements for humanity; with all
Its victories In peace and in war; with
all its accomplishments for mankind
and for civilization and all Its bright
ening prospects for the future; now
standing in the sunlight of its noblest
achievements, break ranks and disin
tegrate, because of the wrongdoing of
a few men who wear its uniform.
