Worth Keeping In Mind.
IN VIEW of Scranton's unsultabll
ity to the expensive and com
plicated mechanism of govern
ment provided tinder the law
for cities of the second class, and
n!?o in view of the practical difficul
ties in the way of sotting new legisla
tion which will fit tho utterly dis
similar conditions in Scranton and in
Pittsburg and Allegheny, the sugges
lion has been made that the legisla
ture be asked to raise the minimum
pnpuUilInn limit of second class cities
from 100,0000 to 130,000, so that Scran
ton may remain In the third class.
It Is probable that a request of this
character would have the hearty sup
port of the Allegheny county influence1
at Hartlsburg, inasmuch as they arc
as little enamored of the prospector
being hllched with Scranton as Scran
ton is of being yoked with them. The
subject Is of too much importance to
be decided offhand. A decision can
well await the completion of certain
investigations now in pi ogress for tha
public's enlightenment. But It is
worth keeping in mind. A more .In
congruous adjustment of local affairs
could hardly be imagined thun would
be necessitated if Scranton had to
organize a government in imitation of
Pittsburg's.
Give thanks and don't over-feed.

erring symbol of common sense.
Principles for Public Life.

the finest product of Ameri

public affairs, in a recent speech, form
ulated five principles which he recom

men about to enter public life. They
are:

ihrre supniiio irtlK-K,
The senator's platform, with ona or
two explanations, Is sound. By tho
ndvlco in Its fifth plank wo assume Itu
ncaiiH that one should not desert hU
rcjguhtr po?t of duty in order to gain
notoiiety ns a professional reformer
tlfnC If each does his best in his own
chosen walk In life professional re
forming will censo to be necessary.
Thero Is unquestionably widespread
popular distrust ot the man. who makes
reform an Incessant and monotonous
topic; who spends most ot his time
in pulling others to pieces and in di
lating upon what ought to be- done,
and very little of his tlmo In trying
to put his lino doctrines Into practical
effect. In other words, the Intemper
ato reformer, like tho intemperate ad
vocate of temperance, loses his grasp
upon tho great majority of his fellow
men nnd soon becomes only a crank
invuchlng lo cranks. The young mun
who wishes to survive In public llfu
must build upon u broader und more
tatlonal foundation.
)Ve like tho senator's first proposi
tion. It Is true and its truth is be
coining plainer every day, The man
who tries to trim sails to every pass
ing breeze Is compelled to trim all tha
time and soon loses public .confidence.

vided Hint It la held and defended
manfully nntl not churlishly, llut the
political wrnthpr vnne has nobod'V.
respect, not even his own. And ns the
country approaches the wider nnd
larger problems of Its political matur
ity It will have greater need than ever
before for genuine) Independence and
courage on the pnrt of Its leaders.
As to tho senator's third point, Iti
foicoftilness li self-evident.
A visit from President Kt tiger, now
that It cannot be misapplied to domes
tic partisan uses, would be ngrceablo to
the American people, who hold hint
and his cause In high esteem nnd who
would bo glad, within the limits of
their own necessities, to help him, If
possible, to softer terms of settlement
with areat Britain.
Th Same Everywhere.
BECAUSK municipal condi
tions, especially the condi
tion of publlo sentiment, tiro
pretty nearly alike tho
country over, tho remlnlFcenoes piv
wonted by ex-Mayor Hewitt at the
Chamber of Commerce meeting In New
York Tuesday evening, Illustrating
how as mayor he handled the problem
of regulating vice and what his re
ward was, have more than passing In
terest. Mr. Hewitt, chosen mayor of New
York on tho Tammany ticket, assumed
office determined to do his whole duty
fearlessly. The first thing ho found
upon tnklna; up the telns xvns that
many disreputable places were doing
business most offensively In flagrnnt
violation ot law. Ho did not watt to
be told; he went about looking nt the
manner In which the law xvas being
enforced. When he had seen enough
lo convince himself that something
was wrong he called In the superin
tendent of police, a man named Mur
ray. Ho asked Murray if the disrep
utable places could bo closed up. Mur
tay said they could. He then asked
Murray why they were allowed to re
main open. Murray said political In
fluence xvas back of them, that the
men who had been Hewitt's best sup
porters in the campaign xvere Inter
ward was, have more than passing In
cited in their protection; and that it
would be political suicide to inter
fere witli them. Murray, xvho had
never been anything but a pollce
mnn, himself confessed to being worth
$300,000, acquired, he explained, through
tips in AVall street; many police cap
tains, he admitted, xvere alfo well-to-do.
Mr. Hewitt continued:
I said to Munay that I nould t.iki .idiantasi;
ot xi hat he had told 1'ic, but I asked h'.m lo tlo
his duly faithfully ftom that day on. lie h.i!d
thai he would, and he did. I then tent fur the
president of the "jolice commission. It xvjs a
bi-partisan boaid thai as now. Time woe
two Republicans and to Democrats, but lh
president of the board ua a Republican. I
told bin) frankly what Jim ray Iml told me
and I asked him v.hcthcr lie ivas ivilllmr to co
operate in the supprciion of the ditci nnd tho
clo-aug up of these disreputable mid uulaulul
places of report. He slid If I xvHiert it be
would, but he tliovfclit I bad better lit thin.

nest nnd that if I bad any political aiiibitiuii
in the future, he wanted to fell me from liN
gieat knowledge of politic-, nnd no man lm'
more, that it would be my political rum; tb.it
there xvas no place that 1 could cut ne rln.lt d
to In tliih community. He al-o tohl me the
truth.
To make a long story short, Mr.
Hewitt disregarded the -warnings of
Superintendent Murray nnd the presi
dent of the police commission and in
sisted that the disorderly places should
be closed. "Wjthln CO days the citv
outwardly at least was clean; vice was
not flaunted in the faces of xvomen
and children walking along the slteels
and those looking for its enticements
had to pass behind ecieens and cur
tained windows. All Unit was pos.sible
for one resolute man In the olllce or
mayor to do, xvorklag with tho moral
power of the community behind him,
was done. Heboid the lesult:

promptly mot In the Union LeaKiiu club and dl
lectiil that u candidate should be nominated.
And they nonu'tiited u fluMate candidate, a man

th.it nomination meant the lestoiatlou of Tain

It Is always pleasantcr to deal In

A reorganized army on up-to-date

FATALITY FIGURES.
W. E. Ccittls, In the Chicago He-cord.
It Is an Interesting fact that among GOO.MO.OOO
pascngiis canicd, only. 200 persons lost their
llvrs on steamboat vessels within the jurisdiction
ot tlic United States dining the last fiscal year,
of whom forty-four were passengers and 111
members ot Hie crews. During the same peilod
tliero were 3&1 boiler explosions on land, which
killed 2f3 persons and wounded 433 others. This
shows that il Is safer to go on sea than to stay
en shore, and demonstrates the vigilance of the
steamboat inspection service, which has 0,2,33
(tenners cud 10,000 boilers under its chaigc.
Of the 500,000,000 passengers carried upon (he
railways of the country 1 were killed and 2,91.1
were injured. Of the employes -7-.I7 were killed
and 33,7(9 injured, and of others tramps, trei
passers aml people who were not in trains 4,fia0
were killed' and 0,170 Injured, making a total of
7,153 peuous killed and 47,870 Injured.
The danger of railway labor is greater than that
of the military service, and more railway nn.
ployes were killed and injured tn propoitlon to
their numbers last jear than soldiers in the
Philippines, In coupling and uncoupling cars
alone 270 men were killed and 0,033 were in.
jured. One out of every 417 railroad employes
in lids country was killed during the year ami
one out of every twenty-eight was Injured.
