Hero Is a practical machinery for
continuous public education toward
municipal Improvement which In Its
composition presents the merits of the
Jury system at Its best, u system to
which we do not hesitate to Intrust the
adjudication of Issues not only affect
ing property but also human life. Hut
unlike tho Jury's verdict, Its pronounce
ment In a particular case Is not final
but goes for review before tho lnrircr
Jury of the electoral majority and enn
be reveised when deemed unjust or
upon the Interposition of new evidence.
Its chief merit Is not Its probable Jus
tice In relation to any particular Issue,
although this is considerable, 'but Its
furnishing of u continuous mechunlsm
of public education In political duties
and its usefulness In supplying an In
itiative around which the fair Judgment
and reputable aspiration of" the people
may crystallize without sacrifice of
existing party ties and without maklng
reform too visionary and idealistic, for
the comprehension and practical ap
proval of the masses of our people.
This has been tried In other com
munities and found practicable. It is
worthy of trial here.
Scrantou with characteristic hospi
tality will welcome the American Fed

the delegates a kind of time that will

The Insurgents' Last Trick.
THK JIOST desperate enter
prise yet hoard of In con
nection with the Fllnn
.Martln insurrection against
regular Itepuhllcuuism in the plot of
the Insui gents to prevent Colonel
Quay's election as senator by block
ing tile oiganization of the legisla
ture. This was done once in a fac
tional fight in Oregon, and it cost
that state many thousands of dollars.
Its consummation in Pennsylvania,
which we do not regard as possible,
would cost many millions of dollars,
for it would starve tho state govern
ment and the interests depending upon
II.
How a minority might do this is
explained by Hon. Thomas V. Cooper
In the Media Ltdger. Jn order to do
business each house must have u
riuorum or majority of its total mem
bership present. It takes 20 members
to constitute a quorum in the senate
and 103 iu the house. A pair in the
parliamentary sense Is an agi cement
between members of opposite posi
tions that when one is absent ihe
other will not vote. Oidinarily lhi-4
equalises matters by balancing one
vote for a party measure 'against one
vote against it, and is often a source
of convenience to a legislator com
pelled to leave bis post of duty tem
porarily. But as intended to be worked by the
Insurgents, it would enable a few antl
Quayites to pair with an equal number
of regulars, and then when Hip other
antis, Including Democrats,, absented
themselves, there would apparently be
no quorum left, because tho regulars,
although present in the flesh, could
not vote, and therefore might be pre
sumed to bo absent. Overtures for
pairs, some toputedly corrupt, arc be
ing made, but there is scant prospect
lhul the plot will succeed, lor as Jlr.
Cooper says.
