ECHANTON, NOVKMHKll 16, 1S98. The next mnyor of Scrnnton Bhould l)e a man of ntronc will power and (sturdy back bone, lie should he both it planner and a lighter. Ho should be more than a figurehead. He should be the clty'H real chief executive a man among men. Colonel Stone's Opportunity. The UmcoHter New Km. reads a de served rebuke to the llnrrlsburK Tele Krnph for iirgulutr that the liuiugura tlon of Governor Stone should lie made the occasion of it costly and elaborate ceremonial. It would doubtless please the people of Harrlsburg to have a lot if money' went on that occasion; but It would not please the taxpayers of Pennsylvania, who believe in simplicity and economy, and we are quite certain that It would not please the governor- elect. If we have formed it correct esti mate of the man, Colonel Stone Is going to surprise those who are looking for an era of prolllgncy and lax government during his administration. There If un doubtedly such u sentiment of expec tation among a portion of the people, fomented largely by the recent tactics of the opposition: but It cannot survive nit open demonstration to the con trary. Such a demonstration, we pre dict, will be made. Already things aie sliaplliK' to tills end. It In slgnillcant that the governor-elect has established relations of cordiality and mutual con fidence with such influential legislative leaders as Senators Martin and Magee, men who will stand like rtono walls among the members of the next as sembly for legislative economy and fair piny. This, added to his natural follow ing among the Quay fotces, will give him practically n united party in the law-making branch, and clothe him with power to strangle at Its birth much legislative jobbery and "strike" legislation. Another hopeful augury Is noticeable in the general belief prevalent among the political wiseacres that In select ing his cabinet Colonel Stone will widen the circle of political recognition and preferment which in recent years has become somewhat narrow In Pennsyl vania and will invite to sit in confer ence with him men who represent con stituencies as well as personal prefer ences. The corflrmation of this belief would signify a determination on the part of the incoming executive to broaden the foundations of Republican ism in tills state and to take safe guards against further party suicide through wear and tear of unnecessary factionalism; and It is pretty sure to be confirmed. All this can be done without wars or the rumors of wars if firmness Is united with honest purpose and tact with both. It ig William A. Stone's oj-i portunlty and his friends have confi dence that lie will meet it. Authorities at Wilmington, S. P., arc endeavoring to persuade the negroes who have taken to the woods to return to the city. This action may be ex plained by the fact that It Is not as easy to shoot a negro in the brush as when he Is out In the open street. Silas C. Swallow. The character of man is revealed in defeat as well as in success. Since the ballots decided adversely to his vain nsplratlons the Rev. Dr. Swal low has disclosed uioie plainly than ever before Ills narrow ami unchai It able mind and the bigotry which is his pilnclpal Ingredient. In the last Issue of his paper for example, with out cause, pretext or occasion, he went out of his way to heave n handful of mud at a respected fellow-clergyman eminent In his own denomination, the Rev. Dr. Clcorge Edward Reed, pres ident of Dickinson college. Dr. Reed had courteously disagreed with Dr. Swallow dining the campaign: hence, after It Is all over, he gets as his pun ishment the following coarse diatribe l'nnted In the Hanlshurg Common wealth: It was no ordinary ani algn. It was Mirfei! by the irk mis of good government for the ovrthiow of n gang of thieves or Mie worst possible character. Dr. lteed retired himself hide by side with the tliii-ves, took up tlielr defense, pcodled tli-ir arguments, fraternized with a st 01 red. nosed drunks, outraged every srnso of ilieeney, and stands condemned in tli thought of the better class of people nil over the. htale as an exceedingly weak, not to say d-'uninUy wicked man. The foregoing extract is only part of a long editorial In Dr. Swallow's newspaper which throughout is gross ly abusive of Dr. Reed. AW dignify it by noticing It only that the men nnd women of Lacka wanna county who have hretoore been in sympathy with the Hnrrlsbuig parson In his po litical activities may know what lcln of a ninn he really Is. Dining tho campaign Dr. Reed said not one dis courteous or unkind word of Dr Swal low. Ills remarks wero tho carefully chosen remarks of a broad-minded Christian gentleman and citizen un seltlshly Interested In the welfare of the commonwealth as he saw It. Thouch he differed from Dr. Swallow In opinion and Judgment he was scrup ulously careful of the latter's feelings and of what was duo to one educator of public thought flora nnothcr. Ills right to think differently from Dr. Swallow Is unquestioned and unques tionable, yet for daring to exercise it he Is now wantonly held up in Dr. Swnllow'B newspaper i i n and rid icule and things an euirily said of him which nro as lab'- .is tho false hoods of the devil himself. Tho asser tions mado In Swallow's paper give Dr. Reed grounds for a pros ecution nt law and are sufllclont once moro to convict tho scurrilous Harrls liurg divine for libel If he were worth the trouble; but fortunately tho people of Pennsylvania us a wholo have taken hla true measure; only In Lackawanna were any considerable number of them fooled. Carbondale's new evening paper, the News, has made Us appearance. It Is a neat four-tinner, nix columns to the page, and begins life with a Judicious presentation of news, comment, nils tellany and advertisements, tho latter encouraoinRly numerous. The News makes1 no promises except that It will be fair In business nnd Fquarely Re publican In politics, and altogether creates a good Impression. We wish It success. Christian Science nnd Law. The action of tho Kngllsh coroner's Jury In holding criminally responsible for Harold Frederic's death tho two women Christian Scientists who In duced Frederic to forego the services of a regular physician has provoked an animated dlscunslun. The law In Kng land holds that a person who hastens another's death by overt act or omis sion of duty In guilty of homicide; and the coroner's Jury consldets that in de priving Frederic of proper medical care lilt tlanee, Miss hyon, and her adviser, Mrs. Mills, have come within this pur view of the law. Their trial, If one oc curs, should prove Interesting an tend ing to dellne the law In such premises. From the standpoint of common sense It would seem that If Harold Frederic, while In his senses, chofe to dispense with medicines and take his chances It was nobody else's business. A different case would be presented If Frederic had been weakened in mental power until not responsible and had then been Inveigled into purchasing the futile ministrations ,of a Christian Science healer. The principle Involved In the latter case frequently arises In this country and we have no hesitancy in saying that where Imposture and un due' inlluenee are presvnt, the law should prosecute to the uttermost limit. Society, having required regular prac titioners of medicine to exhibit a cer tain standard of prollciency nnd to register. Is in honor bound to prevent quackery If It can and to punish It when it cannot. This is an obvious re quirement of fair play. Hut attempts to prevent the spread of the Christian Science Idea by re pressive legislation or by unfair Invo cation of the law will simply multiply Its adherents as If by magic and bring up in humiliating failure. This peculiar specimen of human credulity will have 'to run Its course like the innumerable religious vagaries that have preceded it; and the fewer the obstacles put. In that cmuw the quicker It will be tra versed. Osborne Deignan. the Merriniac hero, refused to be kissed by a bevy of Iowa girls. It seems there Is a limit to the bravery of even a naval hero. Two Sides of a Case. Looking candidly, at the situation in the light we have, it must bo said that there Is a good deal of substantial justice In the memorial of the Filipinos to President MeKlnley summarized In The Tribune of yesterday. American public opinion has not been wholly fair to these far-off children of Span Isti intrigue, deception and repression. As In the case of the Cubans, it lias made Insufficient allowances: its judg ments have been snap Judgments, hav ing In view only superficial appearances and not going to the bottom of things. Americans who pause to think cannot expect Spanish rule ns it has been in eveiy Spanish colony; substantially without change since the moment of Its earliest institution a rule based on the principle of everything for the rul ers and nothing for the ruled; a rule that has shut out education, made candor and honesty in civic affairs un known terms nnd reduced to a line art the science of dissimulation Ameri cans who. take due account of these facts cannot expect either the Cubans or the Filipinos to jump in a day from the conditions of bondage to the high plane of enlightened liberty as Anglo Saxons know It. Americans who ex pect of these mal-used wards of Spain now become our wards a standard of Intelligence, gratitude and broad dis cernment such as would become the products of a century of true democ racy clearly expect the impossible. Such expectations are manifestly un reasonable; yet every failure of the Cubans or Filipinos to come up to them Is reported In many of our news papers gloatingly, as if It were a mat ter to be used against them and a warrant for the cancellation of our moral obligations In the premises. The tone of superficial comment, a year ago so eulogistic, is now deliberately con temptuous. From one extreme which clothed the revolting colonists with virtues they did not possess to another extreme which would deny them any virtues whatever we have passed with ridiculous celerity nnd It Is small won der that the more Intelligent onlook lng Cubans and Filipinos cannot un derstand it; are, In fact, disposed to take umbrage at It. There Is need of remembrance of the fact that the far-off Filipinos do not all know the American government's ultimate purpose ns we in this country know It, and cannot comprehend the lofty unselfishness and high philan thropy which, back of all the sputter over expan'slon, is the president's chief impelling motive in the decision that Spanish misrule over the Philippines must give way to a better order of things. They see American soldiers In possession of their own capital, fra ternizing with their late enemies, the Spaniards, while they themselves are treated with indifference If not with open nnd aggresslvo contempt, are dis armed and ordered to stand back; and when their ships try tc sail the seas uro held up us pirates. These things, to bo sure, are all necessary under the peculiar International condi tions now prevailing; with patience and pluck they will all work out right In the end; but to the Ill-Informed and credulous nutlvcs they supply grounds for wonderment nnd dlstniHt, and tho tension Is not lessened by the curt and undiplomatic methods natural to Amer ican military rule. To cap all, Amer ican newspapers nro put Into their hands which scoff at their pretensions, invest with ridicule their leaders and convey tho impression that they have no rights which anybody Is bound to respect. No wonder they wince; who wouldn't under such circumstances? We need to look at both aides of such questions ns the rinplnes liavo Just rnlsed; wo need to got rid of the uriu slon that tho American Hag raised over alien peoples by the mere fact of going up docs aft that needs to be done for them, even to working Instantaneous miracles In human nature. The Spanish troops nt Havana dis play good Judgment In tho endeavor to secure their pay white there Is col lateral In sight. Figures That Talk. Under the Spanish budget for the present year, $20,659,650 was to be col lected from the pcofTle of Cuba and $20,374,035 was to be spent In govern ing tlietn. Tho principal receipts were to be: From taxes on real estate. In come tax, liquor licenses and other Internal revenue taxes. $0,142,500; Im port and export duties, nnd other In come from the custom houses, $14,705, 000; stamp paper nnd stamps of all kinds, $1,010,030; from the lotteries, $1, !i00,500; sales of effects of the state, J 13. 001); from other sources, $1,530,000; making a total of $20,559,030. The ex pens s are given as follows! For the government of the Island under the authority of the governor General, $22, COO.S.OS. For the local government (uut onomous), ns follows: General obliga tion, $159,005; department of grace, justice and government, $1,012,859; de portment of the treasury, $708,978; de partment of public Instruction, $247, 033; department of public works and communications, $1,030,582; department of ngriculture, Industry and commerce, JKM.i:S; making a total of $20,374,035. It is estimated by the nuthoilttcs at Washington that upon the assump tion ef control of Cuba by the I'nlted States certain expenses now Incurred each year under Spanish sovereignty will cease, namely: Civil, military nnd other pensions, $327,700; the retired list of tho army and navy, $1,I50,SS1; In terest and amortization of the debts created In 1H2, t.Sfi and 1890, $10,433,183; for expenses of military governors and the pennunent military establishment of the lur.nd, composed of Spanish forces, as well as material for war, $tM0.k324 ; expenses of the naval estab lishment in the island, $1,100,299; sub sidy paid the Companla Transatlantlca of Spain. $i71,830; salaries of the gov ernor general and other officials and olllcars, :."0(,000, making a total reduc tion of $10 594,225. Of course Cuba will have to pay the costs of our in tervention out of her current receipts, but the sum will be far less than that imposed by Spain, while the returns in good government and public Im provements will be Infinitely greater. Think of a power squeezing $20,000, 000 a year out of an Island containing less than l.OOn.OOO people and then giv ing back to Its victims only $247,033 annually for the purposes of public Instruction. Is It any wonder Cuba re oelled? Remember, these are Spain's own flgutes. It Is evident that the stars did all their bhootlng before election. The Only Question fls Y?l Involved. New York Commercial Advertiser. 1 n KARliY all Americans who difcuss tho question of the peace treaty agieo that tho late eoloniesorSpaln cannot be given back to ner. even thu Philippines. Here, more than in Culiii, her power has been destroyed completely. She could not recover it. and attempt to do so would breed dieadful anarchy and confusion, which civilization would not endure. Spain could bo put in possession of the Philippines again only by directing the military power of the United State agali st the insurge'nts in her interest. This is not to b thought of any moiu than re-establishment of Spanish sovereignty In Cuba. c All critics of tin administration nre Ui-'ived on this point. Senator Hoar in his Worcester speech declared that Span ish power must be extinguished perma nently in all her late colonies occupied by u--. The Democratic nnd Independent or gans of public opinion in New York city rgre-e that Spain's dominion over tho Islands must be relit quished. One would leave them to stew in their juice of an archy and tho other would train them to independence by the quickest posslblo menus, but that Is iiii nftcr-eouslderatton. Three is absolutely no contention of the proposition that Spain must relinquish her power. o Now this If really tho only question In volved in our peace negotiations with Spain. Those do not relate to the future possession or government of the islands; that will bo decided later. Wo have mado no demand for territorial cession, except In case of Porto Rico, about which there Is no dispute. All wo ask In case of Cu'ia and tho Philippines is that Spain shall re linquish them; shall withdraw her sov ereignty. This has been well under stood us to Cuba from tho beginning, and it begins to be seen now that Cuba and the Philippines slnnd en precisely the same footing. Tluto has been loose talk about "demanding" tho Philippines from Spain; but Washington dispatches make It elcar that the only demand is that Spain shall leave them. o Present negotiations do not look beyond this. The future ownership, sovereignty nnd government of the Islands docs not concern Spain or the pence commission. That Is an affair between tho people of tho lslards nnd us, nnd between both and clUllzatlon. It will be settled later In the common Interest of nil. It Is not In qudftlon anywhere now. The govern ment which will supersede Spain's m nil tho Islands Is our temporary military gov cniment. It will bo months, if not yars, bvforo their permanent etatus can ho de termined. This is one leasnn why wa aro warranted In absolute refusal even to consider assumption or guaranty of any part of tho Spanish debt. That question will conio u later, if at nil. AN HONEST BALLOT LAW. From tho Phlladclhla Times. Ono of the most important duties of tho next legislature will bo the revision of our present complicated, unintelligible and embarrassing ballot law. It was de liberately framed to hinder the freedom of tho nullot Instead of giving tho great est possible latitude for the citizen to ex press his convictions at tho polls. It Is embarrassing to the voter, multiplies op portunities for honest mistakes, and opens wide the door for systematic fraud. - o Thereto but ono way to make nn honest ballot, and that Is to go hack to the sim ple Australian system. Tho Australian ticket has fie name of every candidate, with tho party ho represents, distinctly printed under tho appropriate title of the qfllce, and tho voter has only to mark the numo'ef his fniorlte. it not only makes It an ensy talk for every citizen to vote his holiest convictions for every office, but It Invites tho considerate Judg ment of tho voter, because ho must dccMo upon tho particular candidate for each office. If ho bo Ignorant or a stranger to tha language he can tendtly make out tho tltls of his party to guide him unerringly In voting his wishes. There must bo nn organized nnd deter mined effort mado to get an honest ballot law for Pennsylvania. It will be bitterly fought by those who mako polities a trado nnd tho ballot box a plaything to servo their purposes, but tho sentiment of the people of Pennsylvania In favor of reform, and especially In favor of ballot reform, will lie expressed with such cmph.isla that oven tho party leaders who liuto an hon est ballot will be compcllod to bow to tho popular will. - o Not only r.hauld tho ballot bo simpli fied as we hnvo suggested, by going to thu original Australian system, but the courts should bo required upon the sworn petition of ten or more quallllcd electors of uny reclnct to open tho box and re count tho voto when In session to com pute tho returns. Such proceeding would not impair In any degree tho secrecy or the ballot, ns tho number of each ticket Is carefully hidden by a pasted fold over It. There Is no excuse, therefore, for re fusing to open a ballot box when there Is any authentic charite of fraud presented to tho court, nnd this reform In our pres ent election law would do more to hinder fraud thnn all other lemedlal changes combined. When fraud can thus be easily exposed It would be dangerous to attempt It. and It would require a very reckless election officer to make n false rctutn. We must have an honest ballot law, and If party lenders rhnll oppose It thoy must lie overthrown. WILLIAM M'KINLEY. From the Denver Times. Tho next house and sonnte will bo Re publican by nn easy working majority. This ought to be particularly gratifying to President MeKlnley, whose personality has entered to a great extent into the campaign and the events that piectded it. There was no gieat effort exerted by the Reubllcuus of tho country to capture the present congress, for they would hiiv succeeded Just us well at the next elec tion had tho Democrats been successful. One of the theories of Republican poll tic in oft years is to let the Democrats liavo tho congress, for tiny can be de pended upon to blunder, and out of then.' blunders grow gieat Rt publican majori ties. This year, however, the people of th country weie deteimlmd to Indorse tho udminlstratlon of a man In whom they leposed confidence-. u What must be the fee-lings of the Dem ocratic party? J.eft without Issue und without hope they hovered like vultures over tho camps and battlefields during and after the war in search of an issiio that thoy might delve into with their beaks. No party can triumph that relies upon death and sickness for an issue, The losses to tlu Democrats In all parts of tho country uro the most stinging ribuUe that could bi offered by a loal peoples against tho lnetheds they reported to. o lint after the strife has passed nnd there ij an opportunity to calmly review tlio situation, there Is one man who stands out gre.Uer and givnder than he ever did before In the minds of the American peo ple, nnd that man Is the statesman, Chris tian, gentleman ai.d American President William MeKlnley. There was a tlmo when he was known as William MeKln ley. tho soldier and defender of the I'liion, then he came to be known ns William Me Klnley, tho congrci sman and the poli tician, nnd lastly as William MeKlnley the man, tho executive und the Christian gentleman In wlirm the pe pie of a great nation icposo faith. o When tho guns from Dewey's ships belched forth their brazen notes on that bright May morning In Manila bay, n new era was born for this country. And en that morning the veil of distrust the .mn llgners of Mr. MeKlnley had placed be tween him and the peoplo was torn away, and Mr. MeKlnley, the politician, as the people had been led to believe, became what he really Is nnd always has been MeKlnley the American and statesman. Whatever the riallgncrs of national honor may say against the administration, thoy cannot e-ausn tho people to behove, tint the president was not the- man at the helm who guided the ship of state In a successful course. Piesldcnt McKinley has made tho world respect the American nation and his shown It that our hands aro always mlrd In behalf of humanity. o History has acquainted us with many i f tho great men of the past, and as a nation we nre proud to do them honor. As t he years roll on and generations to i-otno read of William McKinley. they will read of him us one of the greatest presidents the country ever had, and the f.-itln r of the new nation of the western hemisphere. EXPANSION'S HEAL MEANING. From the Outlook. Tho antl-expanslonlst. If he wishes to carry any weight by his argument with the expansionists, must .lot dovoto him self to showing that America ought not to exercise' Imperial authority over tho in habitants of Cuba, Porto Rico, and the Philippines, or to showing that It will be perilous for the United States to re ceive as states Into tho I'nlon those Islands; but ho must show, either that we have in responsibility to furnish guidance, guaidlanslip, and protection to the people of those Islands In establishing free, just, self-governing communities, or that It Is wholly Impossible for us so to do. Wo do not believe that there could bo found a minority sufficiently large to be worth counting who deslro America to govern distant provinces as Rome gov erned P.ilesllti". What the expansionist desires to see Is th? United States giving piotectlo". Inspiration, and nsslstanco to communities emancipated from crushing despotism, and needing the blessings of freedom, justice, and self-government. GARCIA AND GOMEZ. New York Commercial Advertiser.
