Testimony That Counts.
Y" TXANIMOUS VOtP the
f'hninbcr of- commercp f
Mtinllii has paseil rcsolu-
f ions ainnnliisr I(h complete
sympathy with the steps rnUon by the
army In suppression N of insurrection
anil bandit terrorlzatlun of peaceable
natives, ami repudiating Hi slamler
that the army as a whole or in any
considerable part has employed objec
tionable methods.
It Is top much to expect that this ac
tion of men on the ground will have
a repressive Inlluenie upon the defam
ers of our soldiers, because those de
famers aie looking for votes. They
have an Idea that If they can discredit
the army In the Philippines and throw
mud on the administration it will In
some strange manner contiibute to
Democratic victory in the fall elections.
History holds out no encouragement
to this hope. Defamation for political
effect of gallant Americans on the fir
ing line has never yet appealed to the
approbation of the American people,
and we would not be afraid to wager
'that It will not appeal to them in this
instance.
U ought, however, to be reassuring
to flutteied citizens at home that the
shrewd and far-seeing business men
who have gone to Manila to lay the
foundations of a cnmmeiclal future are
serene during all this agitation In
Democratic circles at Washington.
They are on the giound and know, and
they arc satisfied with what Ik being
done and with the way in which It Is
being done. We commend- this fact to
the attention of long range critics.
o influence In .the nominating con-
VvnUoin morn there Until nt.thc polls,
dmlmil!Mff conventions are In many
InsliinrrH peculiarly subject to manipu
lation, l3Nc.pt wh';if there Is ttn over
whelming popular demand for the
nomination nt otic man (lie nominee Is

loadeis rarely naif lo Ignoro tho great
lln.'iuclul Interests, This Is true nr both
parties and Is another way of Haying
Unit It Is money which makes the mare
go.
On the other hand, Tluodore House
Veil Is liolng lfuT I he people do or
should want done. He Is living up to
Ills oath of ottlce. He Is enforcing the
lawn of the Untied .Slates, Just as lm
enforced tliu laws of Now York city
when he was police commissioner or
the lawn of New York stnte when lie,
was governor, without fear or favor.
The Hheitnun law Is plain In Its pro
hibitions. Mr. Mill Jknew of the exis
tence of this law when he undertook
In company with Plerpont Morgan the
formation of his railway merger. Tim
western meat packers knew of It when
they combined lo contiol prices and
restrain trade. They took the ilsk of
prosecution with eyes wide open.
Whether the Sherman law Is a wise
law or not does not enter Into the sitb-V
Ject yet. If It Is unwise these prosecu
tions will develop wherein and why
and then will come the appeal for Its
amendment. While the law Is In full
force on the statute books and the peo
ple are murmuring bitterly at condi
tions which Its enforcement ought to
relieve, there can be no question as to
the executive's duty In the premises.
A political battle between the presi
dent and the trusts would be deplor
able for the l canon thai It would nec
essarily excite class bitterness and
open the door to a large brood of ob
vious evils. Yet IT It shall come the
public should bear in mind that It was
not the president who forced It. He
started out to do simply what it was
his ntHcl.il duty to do. Rvery law
breaker objects to law enforcement
and ftels enmity against the official
who nabs him; but It would hardly do
to abandon law enforcement on that
account. Besides, If the threatened
fight shall come It will be of Interest
to have from the people an expression
at the polls as to just how much hon
esty and courage they want and are
capable of sut-tulning In their public
servants.
It will be real disappointing to the
Scranton Times ir that c oal conference
doesn't end up in a strike.

VER SIXCK Senator Quay de
clared against John P. Klkln
for governor, a number of
newspapeis of lusuigent or
Democratic piocllvltles have tiled to
make It appear that the senator's
uctlon was in puibuance of a sugges
tion from tho white house. They have
repeatedly pi luted dispatches alleging
that President Uoosevelt has been
putting his lingers Into our guberna
torial campaign, to the detilment of
151kin's candidacy. The following
dispatch fiom Washington to the
Philadelphia Ledger of yesterday .sign
ed "J M. C." the Initials f one of the
most trustworthy corruhpondents at
the capital. Is of Interest ln this con
nection. After reviewing the various
rumors connecting the president with
Pennsylvania politics Major Cai'on
continues:
"There Is the very highest authority
for declaring that there is neither
tiuth nor foundation for such repot ts.
The president has at no time discussed
the question of candidates for the
governorship of Pennsylvania with
congressmen or others from that state,
nor has he expressed to any one a pref
erence for General Uiooke or any other
poison In connection with the Repub
lican nomination. Moreover, It can be
stated, ln the most full and positive
manner, that Senator Quay has not
talked with the president about can
didates, and that the president has no
information whatever In regaid to any
plans that Senator Quay may have lu
connection with political a I fairs In
Pennsylvania. The piesldent fully
recognizes the Impropriety of Inteifer
ence on his pait with the local politics
of Pennsylvania, and Is determined not
to be drawn Into the contention that Is
now In pi ogress over tho selection of a
Republican candidate for governor.
"So far as the president Is concerned,
the Republican convention to nominate
a candidate for governor of Pennsyl
vania will be free to exerclbc Its best
Judgment, It It not tiuc that he feels
a special Interest lu the candidacy of
Uenural Hrookc: It Is not true that he
has even Intimated the nomination of
Hiooke Is necessary to prevent the te
tirement of Attorney Oeneral Knox
from the cabinet to accept the call of
tho Republican convention; It Is not
true, no matter who asserts to tho
contiary, that he feels special Interest
in any candidate, or thut he Is. likely
to be drawn Into the factional con
tention over tho work to be perfoimed
by tho Republican convention. It Is
true, however, that tho president does
not want Attorney Clcueral Knox
nominated, He docs not want to lose
his attorney general and ho frankly
snys so. It may bo properly stated in
this connection that the correspond
ent of tho Public Ledger diiected the
attention of thu president this morning
to lecent publications which represent
ed him as expressing opinions about
tho pending struggle among the Re
publican leadeis of Pennsylvania over
the coming Htnte convention, and with
having declared to congressmen from
that slate a. desire for the nomination
of Ueneial Hrooke, To every one oi

We have u .suggestion to make. It Is
that the Union men, so fur from show

regardless of the convenience of the
public, take exactly this other tuck,
and, by showing how olllclent and

Somehow, even lu these days of
trusts and unions, wc have observed
that the intelligent employer still ntnn-'
Ifests a pieference for tho workman

lias a foielnau or a superintendent lo
hire he usuully promotes to the place
the man who hua been loyal In n min
or position. In other words, It Is still
merit which knocks the largest num
ber of Industrial peisltnmons.
