The uonuuprclal InteiPstH ol Novthcastei-n Pennsylvania have for v. eel; been under u pall of uncertainty. This has lifted. The community now knows what to expect. PitKilon nnionir the leprc.sentntlvfs of the mine woi-kois has outvoted leason: n challcngo to battle from the opeiators Limed to lit their convenience lias been accepted: ana mere is no visiuie escape Mom a battle to a Mulsh. Deplorable as this is, It has Us ad vantages. It lixe.-, a ba.-ls of calcula tion and pioml'H to locus and to end In one grand struggle the uiire:t vhlch has pei mealed Ihe llidu.--trlal life of the anthracite coal fields since the hucee.ssl'ul coal strike of two years ago. Had the decision at Ilazleton been otherwise, there would doubtless have been a prolongation of turmoil urn! un certainty almost as hurtful to prosperity as a wholesale strike, with a strike always In usly piopect as the probable eventual outcome. Rvery generation has to have its lesson. Meanwhile, the men, women and children inhabiting: this portion of the earth must live, and lhat insures a certain minimum of business. Of all the communities in the coal fields Serunton promises to suffer the Ieat. s?he has vailed industries, mostly pros perous; and the ppicentuge or wages earned in mining or allied to it is here probably the smallest. Although it would be Idle to deny that the stiike will lie a burden lelt by all, the only thing to do is to face the Inevitable manfully and hide the white feather. Kehlnd the cloud the sun shines brightly and the cloud cannot nlwrure it l'oiever. TlK; publication of another with drawal rumor Is evidence that this am munition supply of Jlr.

Manipulation may defeat the will of the people in tlie state convention, but should it do so, John.l'. Klkin will yet live to tilumph grandly. Heretofore ho has been content to be a. lieutenant, shouldering the burdens and the blame of older men and taking punishment aimed at oMIeia! superiors. I'ircum ."lanofij have put him forward in his own Wuhl and title. You will see him grow to be easily the giant personality in our commonwealth's political af lairs: anil Ill's no litalter what testilt shall be letilsleitd on June 11. the sentence, dismiss the proceedings, award a new tilitl, or make- such other Judgment or order us substantial Jus tice shall reuulre; and the Kttnrenie court may, upon mieh hearing, take any additional evidence which It deems necessary In the Interest of justice. This provision shall apply to all ap peals now pending or hereafter taken." The Cuban constitution provides that all laws existing at the time of the transfer shall he continued. This In sures the permanency of the foregoing vital amendment, The value of this amendment is better appreciated when the fact Is understood that under the new constitution the president of Cuba Is without the pardoning power. Thus an Injustice In a lower court, If not technical In character, could, under the former nrranirpiucnt. not bo remedied. The strange thing about this condition of affairs is thai the United States authorities should not have remedied it sooner. However, a late remedy is better than none. In coinlnjj years tho service done to Cuba by Senator Itanna In his eagerness to aid it friend will, we dare say, be appreciated at Its truo worth. During the niescnt state of anxiety over unsolved miestlons of tho hour it is nol lilfely that even a small bet could be secured upon the probable re sult of the Danlfh West Indies sale deadlock.

In acknowledging that self-respect and Taiiimauylsm cannot exist under tho same loof, Mr. Nixon has con lirmed an opinion of long standing. L Exemplary. Why Elkin Is Strong. X ITS review uf tlie political situation the Philadelphia Led ger, an impartial newspaper. says: "Iteptihllcaii leaders who are with Sunihor Quay in tlie gulier natoiiitl contest are becoming alarmed at the pioffic-s Attorney tleneral i:il:lu !s making In capturing delegates in the lounlry dintilcts. Kvery county in which the nttuiney general has made a light for delegates, except one dis trict In l.ui:erae and one In Schuylkill, ho has won, and eveiy vlcioiy seems lo encourage his friends In other dis tricts to i enow ed elforls, On Tuesday he added two counties to his list, Arm strong and Km est, with four delegates, much lo the Ulscift of the Quayltes, who mo beginning to display concern ns to their ability to control the state convention. The attorney general's suppoiters do not show any signs of weakening In the co'utest. 'They claim Unit Mr. IClklu Is much stronger among the active men In the party and with the people since his i ejection by Senator Quay than he was yhen ho was understood to have been the choice of tho oiganbaulon for gooruor." Thero Is just one Inaccuracy in this Miiotutlon. Mr. Klkin w.is not defeated In l.usserue county. Tho popular vote 'Instructed In Ills favor and delegates JV'ell anil Morgans, the choice 'of the people, wll he seated at llurrlbbuig unless revolutionary tactics shall ipro Jvall. In Schuylkill no opportunity for an expression of tho people at a direct primary was afforded; and the i:il;lu .fo'llowlng had to light a desperate and lesourceful group of fedeial ottlee .huldqrs, Including an assistant United htatcs treasurer, a deputy revenue jcollectqr and half a dossen postmasters, yet came within four delegates of wlu- Mlng. In eveiy district where the peopo have taken a direct ote John )1 Ulklu has won. In not one Instance JhUslho popular majority declared against htm. Not n delegate has been elected for" any other candidate by (direct- vote of the Republican people; fllii'va doubt that one will he. facts lino these aiu significant. They a,re.jiq tq bo underestimated. It Is 4)ftrUfVomlei''that Senator Quay llmls &, revolution threateutd In his own gaunty- and feels unqer the necessity of icntlpg a house at llarrisburg and occupying It for a peilod of ten days Before the convention, fiut for the ha jyenso wad of strength embodied In tho solldltied Jmlladelphla delegation. whose members are confidently count ed by Quay and Durham before one of them has been elected, and who, although taking drders. would sooner to for John Klkin than any other man In tViinsylyanln, because they ml- :VIS XIXOX, one of the ablest and cleanest young men In the United States, lasted as bo&s of Tammany just four months and three days. Then ho resigned peremptorily, "saying he could not continue longer without los ing his self-respect. Nixon had been chosen by (,'roker, when the latter made a feint at le tlring, because In the llrst place he had exhibited executive and administrative qualities ol a high order; also because ho was wealthy, popular and not mix ed up In any of ihe shady doings which had caused public opinion to scourge Tammany fioin power; but chleliy be cause Cioker expected through Nixon's giatlttiilo and ine.'.peileneo to run the game while Xlxon got the eriticisni'and stood uii to receive tlie blows. When Nixon louiid out thai he was being made u.e of as a mere figurehead he (lub'tly called 'the district leaders to gether, spoke his lesignatlon, iun on his hat ami walked out. Undoubtedly Xlxon was slnceiely of the belief, four months and tlueo days ago, that he could lift Tammany up to a plane of comparative rc-psctablllty and restate it to its otlginal place as a leputable and useful auxiliary of stalwart politics, lie lulled to estimate accurately the force of habit. Venrs of habit have made of Tammany a huge enginery of spoliation and oppres sion; a machinery whereby pmsonul enrichment or aggrandizement had long stipt rsedi'd principle, lie tried his best, failed, and manfully confessed fniiuie. The eiuleaor was chlvalrie. The disappointment no doubt is keen. Ihit Xlxon wins lu getting a way fioin bad company. His example should be a let sou. It would probably bo useless to at tempt lo Unlit the beef trust by ab staining from meat diet. As soon as wo learn to ovist upon cereals some one will corner tlie wheat crop.
