lias tested It mill found it not wauling.
It believes in volunteers, In their cnur
nse, fervor and loyalty. It believes
that inasmuch as government calls for
pa 1 ties tho Introduction into party or
ganization of youthful enthusiasm and
tho wholesome volunteer spirit is a
work- of real patriotism, as much to bo
commended and as useful to the state
us is the drilling of volunteer inllltlii
in preparation for always possible war.

volunteers and regulars. There should
be harmony between them. One of tho
lielpful inlliiences of conventions nueli
118 the ono rjcranton i about to enter

standings, guide enthusiasm Into chan
nels of dlscietlon and promote harm

takes no part In making- or unmaking

In polities for Its own health, for the
liealth of its paity, for tho health of
its country.
SciMiitou is glad to entertain guests
of this character. It wishes them sue
.j ecus In their deliberations and pleasure
" in their diversions. If it In remiss In
.. any detail of hospitality It hopes they
will charge it to ignorance and not to

The Interest In C'zolgosz's trial Is such
that it will have to bo reported fully,
but the papers should mako tho nssus

KSI'liriAl, Interest attache to
the Si I'.intun convention of
the State League of Itepubll
can clubs ft urn the far l that
the ptcsldeney of that oigiinlzalion Is
likely to be conferred upon it icsldent
of this city.
In piesenllng for that honorable place
the name of Hon. Frederic V. Fleltsc,
deputy attorney general of IVnnsylva
nln, the delegates fiom Si nintoti pay
honor to one of the most energetic, ie
soutceful and faithful young Republi
cans in the countiy. HKs career has
been a mill velous exeinplilli iitlmi of the
opportunities to be made and masteied
by young men who have In them the
light kind of citetgy and Judgment.
When .Mr. Fleltz e.ime to this city
eleven yoais ago he had hiitdly n dol
lar and but few fi lends. Jle began bete
literally at the bottom of the ladder.
Ilu applied himself earnestly to pub
lie affairs: studied the science of gov
ernment and the details of Its primary
sotirci.s. wllh enthusiasm took hold
of the prai ileal problems of polltlial
activity as they presented themselves
In his district, wind, city and county,
and step by step worked up, unaided,
to 11 foremost plin e among the young
er leadets of Iteptibllcanlsni In Penn
sylvania. Ills rise has been rapid but sine,
firm and In logical sequence. It lests
on natural ability tinlried anil strength
ened by Incessant wink. There Is
nothing of luck In it or about It, It
Is the lcsult of met It absolutely: the
kind of merit that Is willing to undei
go hardship and deprivation lo attain
an end: the kind that keeps pledges,
stands by friends and never knows the
meaning of the word fall. Men of this
stamp rise as siitely as smoke Hies
upward. They cannot bo kept down.
AVe cougtatitlate our young fellow
townsman on the honor about to come
upon him; but we congratulate the
League more especially.

Dr. Swallow.
Wi: DO NOT lead Dr.
Swallow s IVnns Ivnnla
Methodist, heme have no
knowledge of w hat it was
Hint lie sold in it that caused the Mc
Klnley Veteran Patriotic league of
Dauphin county, in a mass meeting at
tended, it Is said, by l.OuO persons, to
pass resolutions declining that the lev
el end cditor-refiii mor "deserves lo be
pllloiled as an enemy to the Pulled
Slates and that his name should only
be mentioned with those of Judas and
Cain. Honodlit Arnold, Wilkes lloolh,
Oiilteau, (V.nlgns. and the other trult
01s, assassins, Hats and vile Undue 01s
of character who have blackened the
pages of the world's hlslot." What
ever it was, it must haxo been win in.
Yet how little men like Dr. Swallow,
nairow, bigoted, vlliiolle, oltou sacri
legious and scurrilous, though no doubt
sincere, leally accomplish in life!
When they go tip at nil It Is like a
locket and they invailably lull like the
stick. The man who Is always com
plaining, abusing or condemning does
not last. Suppose AVIIIIam Mc Klnloy
had been such a man. "Would he ever
have been piosldont'.' Or would n mar
tyr's death for him hao plunged civil
ization into grief'.'
We don't know what Dr. Swallow
wtote or said about President McKiu
loy nnd we don't want to know. It
makes no difference what ho said. The
men at Ilauisburg who permit It to
excite them aie magnifying Its Import
a nee, thonjsJi their spirit of loyalty to
the memory of the nation's honored
dead does tluni ciedlt. Dr. Swal
low belongs to tho past tenso of Ameri
can public life and his only value to
day, in n political sense, Is as a warn
lug example.
The picsldent of the Pulled States Is
very human In his mnnnoii,-mis.
The Devil Will Protect His Own.
Till: Now Ycak Sun Is of the
opinion that yellow Journal
Ism Is .scotched. It thinks
that the feeling uniting the
people of detestation for the coarse
brutalities fonnoiiy printed about the
president nnd other distinguished men
in publlo life, which has been engen
deied or Intensllled by Mr. MeKln
ley's death nt the hands of an anar
chist assaspin, is strong and deep,
seated enough to discourage a return
to them. It seems Inclined to bollevo
that tho battle for decent jouinullpin
is won.
We should bo delighted could wo
honestly shaie this confidence. We,
however, do not share It. Tho poed.s
of a debased taslo lmve, wo fear, been
planted too deeply nnd too numerously
In soil well fitted for rapid growth to
yield to wholosalo tipi noting 111 tho
twinkling of an eye. Maybe iho Sun
nnd wo do not agree In what Is to bo
meant by yellow journalism. it is
well to have an oaily understanding
on thnt point. If yellow Journalism
means simply that no moro gross nnd
villainous curloons aie to bo printed
depleting tho most lesponslblo nfllclnl
In the woild as fit to bo put In a
padded cell, It Is possible that Its reign
Is over, though wo expect eio snow
files to see cartoons In tho Ileatst and
Wanainaker papers ns uboinlunblo in
teaching nnd suggestion us any that
may Jiavo helped to mould C'zolgosz's
bullet. Tho publlo forgets.
Hut while this horrible rarlcuttulng
is a. recent development In yellow Jour
nalism that has been carried to Insuf
ferable excess, It Is only nn oif shout
from tho parent Mem. Tho Insidious
pari, tho pint that germinates the
Feeds of anaicliy and revolution, is not
the garish pictuie, filglitful In hid
eousuess, that only the idiot will take
literally. It 13 tho s-ubtlo and doftly
phi need appeal to discontent, tho In
viiilnlilu sly dig nt those who have
prospeied, the adroit w 01 king upon
tho piejudlce nnd envy of the multi
tudes who. In a crude way, feel re
sent fill n( sight or mention of persons
bolter olicumstnnocd In life. Ono
ill op of this poison, carefully placed,
spreads throughout the clns of 11 cci
taln plopoillou of Iho pooler people a
toxic Inilucnic that robs their minds
of fullness, mid causes them to see
things dlstm Killy.
Yellow Joiiinallsm's main slock In
trade s this wvy poison. It pietends
at times to he Intensely phllauthiople
nnd makes a gicat ado over lis "chari
ties" and "lefonus." Hut this Is slm
p'y a menus of catching the public
eye and of getting close enough to the
hoodwinked victim so that the knock
out chop will work. Actually It chips
for nothing but tho sale of papers or,
as In the Wiimmwikcr case, the squat
lug of political accounts, Its philan
thropies me but a blulf; Us liuilly
heialdeil "leforins" but n method of
Poot.iing circulation, H cures not 11
rap in bow many homes It leaves to
linger and ferment, pet haps to erupt
In robbery or murder, tho Vitus of
class bitterness, hatred and all lin
(I1111 itnblenoss. It does not advocate
ci line. Its ostensible lilornls mo se
veiely iniiect; so cotreet that the
Pharisee of old would weep at the
pi Inls he mivflpil. Hut the whole aim
and trend of Its lllorntutc is toward
crime inciting: townrd starting the
ball of anarchism rolling; toward light
ing tho biinilics of 11 new reign of ter
lor nnd setting up a. new guillotine.
Is this vicious form of newspaper
onterpilse scotched because 11 presi
dent was shot'.' Not u bit of it. It
puis on mourning with the best,
clow ds foteniosi among the eulogists
and prays nnd pleaches like an in
spired prophet. Hut all tho while it is
planning how to resume business in
th' old way: what novelties to throw
out to lake 1 lie edge off the public's
Indignation; what Ingenious appeals to
offer to human vanity and prejudice
to regain the lost giouud mid replenish
the shtivoled piolils of Its pandering.
No eel can match It for twisting and
squirming: no imp of perdition excel
It in cleverness of schemes of alluring
deviltry.
The gloat, good-natured publlo Is nn
easy mark for such conscienceless
faklis as are at tho front of yellow
Journalism. It gels mad sometimes,
and ugly; but anger soon passes and
then tho pocket-picking goes on.
