In fh Intbresf of civilization some
nation oucht tn take a fall out of

OvershootliiR the Hark.
-T-Hr.Rn ISN'T any call for
I "ritchfork" Tillman or any
J. any other crank to deliver n
rctuie on Immorality In
rolitle.a, and point out Pennsylvania nr.
a horrible example There Isn't any
fall for N'ew York or any other news
papers to pet a spasm of reform and
b.-Rln In Pennylanin. Thy can nil
makp a start nearer home There hasf
never been a time when Pennsylvania
hid as Rood a financial record as tinder
C,ovrnOr Stone's administration There
has nver been a mayor of Philadel
phia who has accomplished what Ash
brldRe has done In savins the water
works to the city There has never
been a mayor of Scranton who pave
a cleaner administration than V. L.
Conrell and his work as lecorder will
be as excellsnt.
The fact Is that the yellow Journalism
of this state has lied so outraReously
with "Quayism" and "ring rule" for
texts that It has become a fad of other
states to Jeer at the infamy of Penn
sylvania. It Is an Illustration of oer
shootlnR the mark, if the mark can be
considered the downfall of the real Re
publican party, for It has long been evi
dent that the fish wife style of Journal
ism, with Its hysterical accusations and
vulpar epithets. Is not Influencing th
voters of the Keystone state apalnst
their own interests. They cnnjlnue to
sustain the only party which has ever
worked for progress and improvement.
It is the votes which cive slgnlfl
ance to all political arguments. The
votes In Pennsyvanla are a continual
refutation of the slander of disappoint
ed office sekers.
The Demociatlc candidate for ptat
treasurer. A J. Palm, Is personally a
good man, but In vfcw of his record
a an Incessant champion of oleomar
garine It is evident he doesn't expect
many rural votes.
Sixty Years' Progress.
IT IS IN-THRESTIN'O, in the light
of recent criticisms on the cus
house methods now employed by
th T'nlteri states, to recall the
opinion of a distinguished Englishman,
who visited America about sixty yan
ago. as he expressed It at that time
regarding the same subject. It was
Charles Dickens who said: "In all
the public establishments of America,
the utmost courtesy prevails. Most of
our departments are susceptible of
considerable Improvement In this re
fpert, but the custom house above all
others would do well to take example
from the United States, and render
Its If somewhat less odious and off en
slv to 'oi signers. The servile rapac
:i
Ity of the French officials Is sufficient
ly contemptible, hut there Is a surly,
boorish Incivility ahout our men, alike
disgusting to all rprons who fall Into
their hands, and discreditable to the
nation that keeps such ill-conditioned
curs snarling about its gates."
"When I landed In America I could
not help being strongly Impressed with
the cftntraxt their custom house pre
sented, and with the attentive polite.
ness and good humor with which Its
olHrers dl.se harge their duty."
All this sems a little amusing In
contrast with the complaints which
arf! heard today from our own people.
It was only last week that General
Pred Or.'uU mildly expressed his sur
prise ailthe' treatment he received In
the New York custom house. He had
derlared,-,A quantity of dutiable arti
cles without reservation, but the. offi
cials were not satisfied with that hut
made hijn' suffer the Indignity of tum
bling his effects over In a most disre
spectful fashion, to their Injury and
soil. General Grant expressed no an
ger, neither did he complain, hut
merely remarked that not In all Eu-
rope had such Investigation of his bag
gape been thought necessary.
Not long ago, the charge was made
tlmt ladles returning from Europe
were treated In an offensive manner
by tho Tjjomen Inspectors of the New
York custom house, and nn official
tpurned the Insinuation with haughty
scorn, "because." said he, "the gov
ernment employ only well-bred
ladls InJlts tervlce." Thus It must bo
seen thai a certain matron In the
lmmlgrat;fpn bureau Is a real lady, for
she admitted it herself. It was In this
wise. Her decision regarding the ads
mission of ceruin Immigrants had
been reversed by the Inspector. "Do
you mean to call me a liar?" she
osked with violent emphasis. "I'll
show you I'm a lady, ajd J won't
stand anything like that," and she
romntlv boxed the Inspector's ar In

It l rather evident that nomethliiR
remains to be desired In the customs
and Immigration service, and thnt a

Tillman's characterization of the
American people ns "7fi,G00,P(O lloaters
down stream, with the devil at the
helm," was doubtless meant for pitch
fork wit hut It Is more like Insult.
ImprovlriK the Apple Tree.
T
Iin ASSKIITION pehaps we
should say the demonstra
tion -Unit a vntlety of ap
ple has been brajl In Illinois
which, .with ordinary rate, will "keep"
for one year without rotting or shriv
eling, is of more Importance than ap
peals at llrst thought.
In 100(1 the apple crop of the 1'nlted
States amounted in value to ISO.fiOrt,
oOn, or nearly $123,101,000 more thnn
the value of the wheat crop In that
year. Tor a numher of years I'ncle
Sam's apples have been as valuable as
his wheat, nut most of these npples
are short-lived and have to be used
In a few weeks after they come from
the trees. Our expoits of apples aver
age about 1.000,000 barrels a jfar,
tin idly one-llftleth of the total crop.
These exported apples are In groit
demand in Kurope, nnd live times as
many could be sold over there at good
prices If the American people had
them to sell, and especially If they
had them In varieties that would Uand
packing, shipment nnd piolonged rtor
ng without much deterioration.
Prom specimens examined, this new
Illinois breed of arples seems to ful
fill this requirement admirably. Ap
ples picked last September, put in
barrels and stored In the temperature
of an ordinary cf liar are now as round.
Aim and glofey as when they were on
the tiee. They appear to be Iti lit con
dition to last another year If neces
sary. If horticulture can effect such
results with one variety of apple, It
Is reasonable to believe that others
may be similarly affected. That will
mean millions of dollars' Increase In
nut export apple tiadc, to my nothing
of the gain to home consumeis.
Th presence of Senator Tillman In
Pennsjlvanla In the guise of a re
former caps the climax of hypoctltlcal
audacity.
Intolerable.
I
N THE telegraphic dispatches of
yesterday tho public Is Informed
that "all night long," on Wed
nesday, "sevetal hundred Ptilk
ers stctfid guard around the United
States tin plate plant at Demler to
thwart a reported attempt to bring In
non-union men." Similar Information
comes fiom other places.
These sentinel strikers had quitted
work In those mills. They did this
of their own nccord. breaking n con
tract as they left. They had no griev
ance as to hours or wages. Most ot
them had been earning as good pay
as they had ever received. None, so
far as we know, had complained of
Ill-treatment. Their right under the
law to quit work la Inviolable. Had
they fjiilt without breaking a contiact
none could have criticized their quit
ting, save possibly as to Its wisdom.
But having quit, thete lskno law,
either statutory or moral, which ghes
them the right to assemble In gieat
numbers around the approaches to tho
mills for the purpose of Intel ferlng
with other wot kinsmen who prefer
employment to Idleness. Assuming
that as individuals they do not know
this, the leadership which assigns them
to such a task Is sedltloue In Its ten
dencies and cannot be sanctioned by
public opinion 'without directly en
couraging lawlessness and the forci
ble suspension of constitutional guar
antees. If the contrary were to appear; that
Is to say. If the steel trust were to
kidnap them and force them to work
In the mills against their will and
under a puard which made difficult
their escape, they would be Justified
In calling It a form of slavery and In
moving heaven and earth for adequate
redress. Yet It Is slavery In pplilt
and tyranny In effect that they would
Imposp upon men of their, own craft
for dllfvrlng from themselves In the
open choice between Idleness and wotk.
A state of things like this, existing
In a free country, is a menace to free
dom. When men who have left cer
tain employment are permitted to say
that the places they have voluntarily
abandoned shall not be filled; when
they are permitted to form In line like
armies and to besiege the Industrial
plants that they have walked out of,
the condition la not one of pence nnd
good order, but one resembling war
and needing hut the spark of accident
or impetuosity to become war in grim
reality.
Such a condition is unAmerlcan
and Intolerable and those fomenting
'It must feel the weight of public dis-
approal.

Many Americans, for sake of variety
and In evidence of good will, this time
share the hope of Sir Thomas Llpton
that Shamrock II may lift the cup.
Pensions. ,
UHIXO the year ended Juno
10 last, the pension bureau
D
issued 109,608 penston certifi
cates of all classe.f, 44,225
being for original pension. It closed
the year with 101,500 claims pending,
a number smaller than for years past.
Although It Is now thirty-six years,
or almost n generation, sinco the close
of the civil war, tho annual expendi
ture for pensions Is at Its highest
point, a fact which does not sustain
the cnargo that the present adminis
tration ot the pension ofllce. Is un
friendly to deserving claimants. The
following table showing tho amounts
of money paid to pensioners under dlf

There haa been criticism of the ad
ministration of the pension bureau to
the. effect that Commissioner Kvans
has endeavored to keep pensioners
down to the very lowest rates allowed
by law. This, as his report shows, Is
not true nor has It been true at any
time flncc the net of June 27, U90,
was passed. Under that act the max
imum pension was 12 per month, nnd
by far the largest number of Invalid
pensioner under that act are draw
ing the highest rate, The following
shown the division of the list under
the act of June 27, 1S0O, nccordlng to
the rates allowed: One hundred and
four thousand, eight hundreM and thirty-four
receive $1 per month; 13S,2!3
receive JS a month; 3R.I52 receive $10
a month, nnd 1J6.217 receive $12 a
month.
Though much attacked, th present
commissioner Is well fortified behind
the'rerorrid nnd his work commands
ndmliMlnn the more carefully It Is
examined,
