Things simply cannot urn along in this euurce without wlmling up In illM"ter. Today th- llepubllcans lor th' llrst linic will nominate a cllv ticket by di rect vole. Hvcty citizen who at the last general election supported the He publican ticket or who can satisfy rea sonable inquiry that he has been and m in gcn-ial sympathy with Republi can principles and policies nnd the lines should not be drawn too tightly where the person offering to vote gives credible assurance of honest Intent may. at his accustomed polling place, between the hours of I o'clock and S p. in., murk on a piinted list of candi dates his personal choice for each of the various olllces, and the vote thus marked will count. If the party rules are obeyed In spirit nnd In letter, the ballot will be secret, the count fair mid the men receiving the largest nuin lier of Miialiricd votes will In due coins" go on the olllcla! ballot as the regular Wcpuhlicur nominees. Thus It wil' be possible for a majority of the Republi can voters or Serautoii. without Im portunity, co-ercloii or constraint, to name foi the city olllces candidates must nearly appiuxlinatlnpr to their ideal of Illness; and a ticket thu- free ly and lairly chosen ought to be In vincible &. the polls and generally sat isfactory afteiwani. This, in hriet. Is Hie theory of the Crawford county system. It rests whol ly with the mass of the party mem b i-shlp as to whether theory and prac tice shall coincide. There has not been a time since the city of Scrnntnn was Incorporated when the need of a munic ipal regeneration was more widely un derstood or when there was less of a illspositkn on the part of the so-called bosses" to Interfere with a full and rrank expression of the party will. 1'nder these circumstances the Invita tion to participation In today's pri maries ought to be irresistible, and the results such as to command the cm-cHnl favor of the people. Shall this reasonable expectation be dlsappolnt id? Should not the paity, on the con trary, rise to the limit of its unex ampled opportunity? The I'nltod Htntea does not hanker for trouble with (teriaaiiy. but It Is not 1'eelIiiB ns meek now as it once felt. Suppress Aguinaltlo. The pushing SviHlmentallsls at Wash lngton who ore em enraging the Fil ipino adventurer. Agiilnnldo, to resist th' reasonable and necessary author ity of tin t'pltid States and who are denouncing William McKlnley for vt le aning to vrfoim a dutv in the high Interest of humunltv from which there It no honorable escape, ought all to be put in jail or In asylums for the feeble minded. They an- glvintr nt'! and cmounigeircnt to an armed eii" u . the are ilUplaylm; before the world In a peculiarly delicate nml try ing crisis the humiliating spectacle of n nation divided against itself uimecis Mirlly and unreasonably: thev are hlapplu:; the face of a chief executiv whoso foreign policy heretofore has vindicated lta wisdom, sound judgment and statesmanlike discretion al every point, and they are doing all this In v anion iKiummcr- and perversity. They don't know the Philippine situation nnd the president does. They have nr. pre cise Information of the diplomatic and other perils surrounding our govern ment In its approach to this coiuplleat- d question and the preside nt has. They tiro bellowing wildly In the daik: he Is movltiB cautiously hut surely in the light. They win yet all come to a rihnrp realization of their present fol ly and jirotfer to him, when the mis chief which they are now doing has exhausted Itself, tlulr abject apologies. They did this In the Cuban recognition squabble: tin1 will do this when tinin with equal distinctness shall exhibit the Eiipeiior wisdom of the president's policy of dealing with the Insurgent Filipinos. On this point we havo no misgiving whatever. It Is as certain as any event of futurity can be. Hut In the mean while, it Is becoming plain that the absurd pretensions of tho chief boodler in the Filipino tftrlke at UiicIh Fam'H nihil box, Don Kmlllo Auulnallo, the gold Ilured dictator who deadheaded lib! wuv hack from Hong Kong by grace of Admiral Dewey after Spain had bought him off- who III si. played traitor to Spain and now tries to re peat the trick with us: thin upsttut lulny Imitation of greatness whom tho intelligent classes among his own peo plo denounce as an Impudent mercen ary must bo gohily but firmly sup pressed. We hrivcj exhausted pacific means in striving to enlighten bis lu- toxlouted understanding,. W.e have been Kind, patient, tolerant nnd con ciliatory as a mother Is with a per vpm child, and the net effect has been to augment tho undue Inflation of his head, emphaslsa- the Napoleonic effrontery of his Imperial strut nml convey to his naturally docile but now deluded followers an utterly false and misleading Impression of American vacillation and weakness. In their minds we stand In awe of the august Aguinnldo: small wonder, then, that they tcsort In growing number to hl.i standard and Increase their ciodulolM n Unites to his supposed might. Of course It Is not Agulnaldo whom McKlnley fears but his snphead allies In the United States venule, who In their sloppy solicitude for tinmeiiaced "principles of the fathcts" are con spiling to detent the carefully matured diplomacy whereby our superb presi dent has brought Hie oitntry out of war to the threshold of peace. In de ference to their grandmotherly suscep tibilities he Is now extending unmer ited grace to the Tngal Impostor, which the latter construes as license to posa and strut with new audacity. Hut the time has arrived when It Is neces sary to face this crisis. Let the ptcsl dent give Otis and Dewey tho woul to squelch Agtllnaldo and the Ameri can people wilt covtnnnt to dispose In due time ot his senatorial abettors. According to General Wood the Cubans are quick to learn hotter ways If you know how to handle them. His example t' aches how. Tho Party Nominee. U'e are not surprised that the princi pal organ of the Wnnamuker insur rection is not pleased Willi the execu tive committee of the Republican state committee for "taking a hand In tho senatoilal contest." According to the Philadelphia Press the 'Republican stale committee has no business to In terfere in this matter." but that Is where the state committee and1 our Philadelphia contemporary do not look ill tho subject through the same spec lades Is not the business of a slate com mittee to champion the cause and fur ther the political interests of tho duly c-ertilled and fairly nominated major ity choice of the political paity which that committee is constituted to rep resent V Can it be conceived thai a state committee could, without gross Impropriety and glaring violation of precedent and principle, put itself in lebellion against the ra tilled choice of the majority whose credentials for reg ularity are unchallenged? It Is only necessary to suppose a case to show the Insincerity of the Press' attitude. If the recent senatorial caucus, com prising among its participants nearly two-thirds of the Republican member ship of the general assembly, had by unquestioned majority ballot named .lohn Wnnamnker Instead of M. S. Quay as the party candidate for United States senator, would the Press say It was not a part of the state commit tee's business to espouse such a nom ination and endeavor to bring to Its support all Republicans having respect for party regularity? The pilneiple on which the Republi can parly lests nnd for whleh It stands N that the majority are sovereign. There Is no principle more vital to our scheme of government. As the case stand.' today .Matthew S. ijuay Is the eertllletl choice of a two-thirds major ity of the Republican membership of the Pennsylvania general assembly to succeed himself In the United States Semite He was chosen deliberately after a long and earnest canvass. The men who voted for him knew what they wen- doing and the validity of their action stands every test of party custom and example. He Is therefore the one and only candidate In tho field who has the right to the support of the Re-publlenn party organization and to the loyal help ot every Republican as semblyman who recognizes the light of the majority to rule. Colonel Carlos Unrein, son of tho late Cuban general, Callxto Garcia, Is at Albany Inspecting the workings of tho New York legislature, and he an nounces Hint ho will visit other tmto capitals with the Intent to collect In formation of value for use -when Cuba undertakes self-government. The col onel Just now had better steer clear of llarrlsbtirg. Engan Must Apologize. When the present Inquiry Into the management of the war was begun, assurance was given by tho president that witnesses would be protected against persecution for evidence given. This promise was called forth by the manifest reluctance of men In subor dinate position to volunteer testimony which might arouse the malice of those above them In rank. The Investiga tion commission had no power to sum mon persons or papers; It lacked the authority to enjoin the taking of oaths; It had no contempt prerogative, nnd so, to give scope to Itu work, this assurance of exemption was announced, It did not go very far to fertilize the Inquiry, for while presidents come and go, army animosities continue and none but brave men risk the consequences of exciting them. It Is staled I hat Commissary (len eral Kagan planned his coaise personul assault on Commanding (ienernl Miles with the Idea that the piesldent's ex emption would cover It with privilege. If this Is true the president must In form him of his mistake. No plea of privilege enn exonerate such a venom ous breach of discipline and good breeding. The Invited testimony of General Miles, which was tho Inciting raiiso of It, kept well within bounds. Jllles laid before the commission n mass of evidence showing tho unfit ness of much of the meat food sup plied to the army and when asked how (Ills vile Ht ii If camo to be foisted on the soldiers, inferred them, as a mntter of course, to the secretary of war and tho commissary general, the olllclals directly In charge of the purchasing operations. Ho said in addition that he had heard the beef hnd been tried on the army "ostensibly as an experi ment," u remark that may or may not havo been Indiscreet, but one cer tulnly not personally abuslyo or espec ially leveled at any Individual, Miles was evidently Indignant that such a disastrous experiment uUould have cost the lives of bo many hrnvo fighters, but he Kept control over his temper and opened for almost tho first time a real field of Inquiry. On the other hand, Kagan asked for a chance, to make a statement and then deliberately and maliciously launched the vituperation noted yesterday, giv ing tho moHt amnzlng and shameless exhibition of olllelnl Indecency that this generation has Been. If he Is not made to apologlzo for this Insult and then fittingly punished, every self-respecting man In the military uniform of tho United States should either resign or unite In a petition to congress to reorganize tho army so that the black guards and Incompetents in It may bo put where they belong. The report that sanitary regulations In the city ot Scrnnton have been ne glected during the recent Illness of Dr. Allen, the health olllccr. should be In vestigated, It lc staled that many cases of diphtheria In certain parts or the city have been unknown save to the families or physi cians. If such a stale of affairs exists It Is time that those to blame shouhl bo made to suffer for this direct viola tion of the law which Is so liable to be followed by disastrous results. Willi Roosevelt In the governor's chair. Choate representing the nation at 'the court of Great Britain and Chuuncey M. Depew the unanimous choice of the Republicans for senator. it Is time to give applause to tho grand old Kmplro state. Very quickly and grandly linn she rellecteel tho moral nnd Intellectual uplift which Is tho chief fruit of the war with Spain. Kvorywhoro that General Wood has gone since his return from Santiago he has received the most signal proofs of public appreciation nnd esteem. In his case at least, merit does not lack re vs aril, and the example Is a wholesome one for public contemplation. This country needs at the head of the commissary department ot Its army a man who can govern himself. There Is no trouble about the quality of American beef In this climate. It is the price that troubles most people-. If Miles Is a liar it Is evident that the army Is full of thoni. TOLD BY THE STARS. Daily Horoscope Drawn by Ajacohua, The Tribune Astrologer.

There will doubtlcs be several persons In Scrantnn tonight who ale of the opin ion that tho Crawford county mlcs uti- a lallure. There ale numerous examples that It Is easier to acquire a bload stomach tli.iu a broad mind. The wisdom th.it makes one believe that others have no right to their Ideas Is generally damaging in a business wav at least. The city contains few male 'eslclonts who are not victims of the grip or candi dates for olllce under the Crawford rules.

From tlm Wllkos-Hiino Times' Washing ington Correspondence. At a conference- of a number of promi nent Republicans of Pennsylvania Wed nesday evening It was practically ileculiil to present at Harrlsburg the name c f Congressman Wllllum Conncll as a can didate for United States senator. It is expected Mr. Council will draw and hold the votes of a number of members op posed to Quay. Council Is for Quay and expects his election. In the event, how ever, of a possible deadlock and should It seem Impossible to elect Quay. It Is be lieved Council will be acccntubln to the anti-Quay Republlci ns and would also receive the support of Quay's friends. Conncll Is a strong, aggressive Repub lican, a self-made man, takes an active Interest In politics and represents the business man In politics and his clccllo'i would place in the senate a man closely liJoiitlllc.nl with coal and Iron, the two greatest Interests of Pennsylvania, who would Intelligently and faithfully repre sent the state. Council Is a man ot en ergy and Industry. If he enters the con test It Is because the chance to win tho election as senator Is regarded as among the possibilities. From a Washington Dispatch to the Wilkcs-Harre Rcrord. When Mr. Council was asked tonight If ho were a candidate for Senator Quad's seat, he said: "1 am not a candidate lor senator. 1 am a friend of Senator Quay and am doing all l cm to secure his re election." Further than this Mr. Cou ncil refused lo discuss the situation, ex cept to add that lie believed the seiiiuur would win. WHAT HAS BECOME OF THE BOASTED DISCIPLINE OF THE REGULAR ARMY ? Kill tor of The Tribune Sir: Your editorial remarks cm the Fagan scandal cover the ground exactly. Hut one is led to ask what bus becomo of the boasted discipline of the regular army? Whatever grievance General ISagan may have had If any; there was open to him the regular milltury wny or vindication, either by a court of Inquiry or court mar tial. No possible circumstances could Justify such a cold-blooded, brutal and passionate personal attack upon any person cither olllcur or private, much less upon the commander In chief. The fact that such u breach ot discipline was cool ly entered upon and dellburtely commit ted by the head of one of tho adminis trative bureaus of our army, an officer ot hlgli rank, Indicates an ominous lack of that quality which Is the very first es sential to tho efficiency of an army, viz., discipline. What will be Its effect upon subordinate officers? What Its nec essaiy Influence upon the ninlc and file ot the army? And what will foreign na tions say of the character of an army In which such things occur? I-'very veteran and every citizen who bus at heart the welfare of his country, and who glories In the achievements of her armies, both tegular and volunteer, cannot but feel humiliated at this teinble scandal.

DECLINING IMPORTS. Special Correspondence of The Tribune. Washington, Jan. 13,-Tliu Import re cord of the calendar year IMiS Is as re markable as that relating to Its exports, but for opposite reuson. The total Im ports of the year tiro less than those of any calendar year In mori than a de cade, while tho exports of the year tiro the largest on record. The Imports full more than one hundred million dollars be low those of isu7 and nearly fifty million dollars below those of the years of great depression, 1MW nnd 1MM, on which occas ions the Imports were phenomenally llHht, That the Importation In the early part of the year lSDi should have been light was not surprising because ot I lie heavy Imports In certain lines prior to the en actment of the tnrllf law of 1SS7; but thai they should continue light during the en tire year In the fnre of the large home demand which prosperous business con ditions would naturally create has proved surprising to thosu following closely Un commercial developments of the year. Tho Importation of a full year's supply or wool, sugar and other at tides of that class Just prior to the enactment of the Dlngley law naturally had a marked ef fect In reducing the Imports In thu clos ing months ot the calendar year. 1VT; but Hint the Imports of the closing months of lsys should remain as low ns thoxe of ISO Is a matter of very consid erable Blirprhc.
