ELKIN, of Indiana, subject to the will of the Republican masses. Welcome to Our Quests. THE DOOP.S and the lKnrts of Scranton open wide to the strangers within our K"tes. ,' for experience has taught that'they deserve' such a welcome and do not; abuse it. Four times have the picked 'sir knights of Pennsylvania masonry invaded 'the capital' city of the anthrapltc coal fields, capturing it with out a. A'lrUKgle, and Uie exorcises, or 'to day .will illustrate how history repeats. It cannot repeat too often ,to please the citiz'dnsof Scranton. It is true that our people this time arc under the weight of an alllictlon: that their prosperity, just rounding into symmetrical form, has been dwarfed again for a time by an upheaval in our mines. But this will not he obtruded upon the notice of our Biiests further than is necessary to explain any pos sible differences between past and pres ent experiences in Scranton. We do not. however, apprehend that there will be any differences unless In favor of the present concla've, for the ability of our people to entertain Is happhy. supple mented by the ability of the visitors to make the best of every situation: and therefore a royal time ot mutual pleas ure and profit Is assured. In the Intervals of time npnrt from the work of the conclave and amidst the many social diversions prepared for their entertainment, wo trust that our suests may take Inventory of our city's progress as revealed to public notice In new public buildings, institutions nnd homes erected since Inst the grand commander- met here. It Is desirable that this should be' understood by our friends i'rom elsewhere. "We feel proud of It; and we know that when they realize it they will share in our pride and gladly aid us in seeing that In distant places falsa Impressions of Scrunton may be removed. Henry Clay JleCoimick was the brains of the Hastings administration. He was one of the ablest citizens of Pennsylvania'.' Peace to his ashes. A Word of Timely Warning.' IT IS AX Interesting, commentary on political conditions In .Penn sylvania that some of those who are supporting the candidacy of Judge Pennypncker- on the high moral plane that ho Is a clean and able, man whose selection would re-unite tliepar ty also predict his nomination because they say that delegates .instructed or pledged to .lolm I31kin,wlll be induced to desert his colors.. It is well known that agents of Senator Quay an; now at work trying to detach from Klktn.m'ftn elected In His Interest. Even so high toned an advocate of reform as the Philadelphia Press concludes an edi torial review ot the state canvass with these words: "Klkln will 'be from fifty to seventy votes short when the eonve,n-, tlon meets. When the ballot Is taken he is likely to be short still more than 4hnt." Jf there is any moaning In this quo tation; If there Is any truth in the widely circulated reports that dele Bates In Chester, nialr and other coun ties Instructed forKlkln are being so licited to Jump their Instructions it means that Die Pennypacker move ment, luivlne; Its main strength In Dur ham's iuaehh'e-controlied Philadelphia delegation, laCVVa be patched out In con vention, If gSSsiblo, by subornation and perfidy, .$ho Philadelphia Immlrer nsserts tIiatflUhusvhcanl of three dif ferent InsturVces where, agents' of the combine whlojls imslij!ignjiypacker have made ternptinfjof(i5frj'.o,"hi'fit,i7ieted delegates. Jn'"thoso''1hstaiiCes' theoffers were rejected. Airents of ""Jho combine, however, nr! continuing their quest nnd they apnijiq.be.iictirjsijaej: an.-.' thority, Wiccjieerfully acquit Judgo Pennypaekor'iof any knowledge or part In this campaign of prostitution. The responsibility-rests elsewhere. John iullUnilias never posed as a re former, Ho'lijlnot posing ason'o how, Hut neither Ijgjnor any agent or his s trying to getj'g'ny delegat.0 Instructed'for his opponent .to Violate good faith, The delegates who'jjmve been elected with out Instructions are propopfBubJects'of proselyting. ;The supporters of Me. EL kin will try '.to get as many of these as they can, arid wc think that, In spite of the weultir-comblno which Is oppos lnft Elkln, th'eyj will get a goodly num. ber, They vvJHclso try to get ns nmpy direct expressions of party preference through open " prjpftv(ss t uOtr&iiv'rW and such expresslonrj f,icy will respect nnd abide by, whether favorable or un favorable to their hopes, There Is noth ing of the sneak In John Elkln and also 'nothing of the whlncr or. ttUltter. He went Into this tight assured of the sup port of many who have since turned against him. He Is In the fight yet, stronger since their desertion than be fore. He has won every fight conduct ed. In the. open and he hopes and ex pects to win In the convention. If nn other shall be the convention's choice Elkln will bo the first to tender assur ances ot ungrudging support. Hut for the sake of the party, Elkln must win fairly or be beaten fairly. We say with due deliberation nnd upon knowledge thnt If perfidy Is a fnc tor there will be trouble. General Chaffee's vigorous disap proval of the ncqulttnl of Major Wal ler for severe treatment of the natives of Samnr and his strong condemnation of cruelty In the Philippines destroy a lot of accumulated Democratic cam paign thunder. It is In order for Chaf fee's senatorial detractors to apologize. An Unequnl Combat. BY AX AXAIiYSIfcS of the earn ings ot the coal carrying railroads, a writer for the financial supplement of the Xew York Times computes the cost to the operators of the coal strike of 1900. That strike, It will be remembered, lasted from Sept. 1" to Oct. 29, six weeks., Eight of the companies, In the two calendar months which Included the strike, lost in gross earnings $V,7..S, 765; while In net earnings the loss was M,lGJ,8.!i. It should be explained that these figures do 'not include the losses of two of the largest companies, the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western nnd the Delaware and Hudson, which do not Issue monthly statements; nor do they comprehend the losses of the Individual operators. Just liow to get at the total loss except by a rough guess we do not know; but In nil probability the companies and operators of nil kinds during thnt six weeks' strike lost, net, a million a week, while the strik ers, according to the best Information, lost somewhat more than a million a week. Jlost of the million a week l&st by the strikers was lost forever. Very little of It came back. .Most of the million a week lost by the companies came back in un Increased charge for coal after ward. What was true then Is true to day. The miners and operators nre both losing about it million a week because by a close vote the radicals at llazle ton outvoted the conservative upper district men who opposed a strike; but the operators have the million to lose, knowing full well that most of It Is simply on a vacation, with every pros pect of returning, while the great ma jority of the miners, with homes to pay for and families to support, have not. To the stockholders in the coal-carrying railroads the strike means the pass ing of a dividend, maybe for six months, maybe for a year, but few holders of railway stock will go hungry In conse quence. At the worst it- will mean simply trimming a little in reducible expenses flowers, furbelows, luxuries. Hut to tjie average miner the loss ot Income is total, and it means absolute penury and starvation. It Is an unequal struggle In which It would be dishonest and cruel to the miner to delude him) Into believing that the chances of vie-, tory are in his favor. About the only peg on which It seems to us that the strike leaders can now hang a genuine hope Is that the finan cial world, fearing a panl In the event of a prolonged fuel shortnge, may co erce the coal magnates into compro mising. The Xew York Times writer thus expresses his opinion on that score: "As a matter of fact, when the strike was on In It'OO the transportation companies In general were so well occu pied that they added to their revenues $9,2S!,000, and conditions were so favor able that they secured $2,in3,O0O to add to their profit .total. And this Is not the whole of the story, for It must be borne In mind that scarcely an Industry in the country but what has been strength ened In the past year and a half, "scarcely any of the country's nctlvltits but what have grown more active. The base of all operations Is firmer as a re sult, and it may .well be doubted whether the advent of a coal 'strike will produce n convulsion' anywhere but at the point of origin. Yenr by year'lt is coming to proof not 'only that the effects of par ticular disturbances become more nnd more localized, but that other Influences develop as minimizing factors." The expectation of a bituminous sympa thetic strike ls now generally Recog nized as having no tangible foundation. but the best proof that the struggle Ismnequal Is found in the complete ab sence of enthusiasm with which the substantial men among the miners went Into It and stay In It, They were driven by the majority, against their own better Judgment. They are loyal to their union and mean to obey Its com mands as long as llesli and blood can stand the uncalled for strain; but they know in their hearts and when talking man to limn they will admit that It is a hopeless struggle. They fully reulize. that It ought not to have been begun. Jf at the best somo slight concession should be wrung from the operators after months ot battle, they know It would bo poor compensation for the losses sustained and the suffering en dured; whllo If at the worst they have to go back beaten at every point, then they foresee that un end will come to the present miners' organization and much that Is good In It will bo sacri ficed because the hotheads would not Jet .the cool heads lead it. ' The lesson "of it "all Is very plain to thoso who have the moral rniirngo to face It; and delay will simply make it plainer and the tuition more costly, ,. The statue.' of Frederick the aren't should be accepted at once.- With peac'o III the Philippines and in-South Africa,, the .monument woud furnish an excel lent, target for the uneasy patriots of congress, who will. soon have nothing eleo to throw bricks at. Dairy and Food Commissioner Cope, according to accounts, is almost too cautious for his position. He does not wish to prosecute tho embalmed meat mprchants until somc o:. will give practical illustration,-- which- may -bo used as evidence, thut boraclc ncld Is Injurious when taken Into the stomach. If this course Is to be !:atil upon, It I Is eminently proper thnt Mr. Cope should make the, test upon himself, .He is paid a salary to secure evidence,. The almost dally announcement thnt nnother Chinese rebellion has been sup pressed need cause no unusual anxiety. The Chinese rebellions of the present season are of n character thut can easily be loaded Into n patrol wagon. Popped Potatoes. WtlfjE one day watching the peculiar action of popcorn under the In fluence of heat. Dr. An derson, one of the Investigating scien tists of Columbia university, was in spired to make a study of starch foods, as affected by heat. He found that more than CO articles rich In starch could be made to pop like corn. When popped, they were noticeably Improved for food purposes. For Instance, Dr. Anderson pops po tatoer, then subjects them to an Im mense hydraulic pressure, from which they emerge as white cakes, not unlike soap; these cakes will last for a long time In any climate; and when you want to eat one, just dissolve it In milk, ndd the required seasoning, and there you "are. "nice, when popped," says an article on Dr. Anderson's experi ments published in the Xew York Her ald, "swells up to several times Its own bulk and makes a delicate food that actually melts away when placed upon tho tongue." The old theory was that corn popped because moisture contained within the nir-tlght covering of the kernel was by heat converted Into steam and explod ed. Dr. Anderson's experiments prove that this Is only partly true. Instend ot the explosion of the kernel being caused by tho bursting of the individ ual .starch cells, the phenomenon Is caused by the bursting of the outer en velope of the kernel, thus suddenly re lieving 'the pressure generated by the heat acting upon the moisture con tained In the grain. "This called," says the Herald article, 'Tor three factdrs In a demonstration heat, pressure am! a sudden release of pressure. The next step was the con striction of a steel cylinder, which, on a large scale, would represent the en velope of the popcorn kernel.- In this cylinder were placed pieces of raw po tato nnd the receptacle was closed and submitted to an Interior pressure of three or four ntmosphercs. Heat above 220 degrees Fahrenheit was applied for a time and then the pressure was sud denly released. The result proved be yond peradventure the truth of the theory, for there gushed up into the cylinder a snow wliito, toothsome muss of 'popped' potato, as light as pith, but containing all the nutrition of the orig inal tuber. Slmilifr tests were applied to small balls of Hour and wuter. Upon the release of tho pressure they popped out Into full fledged blrcuit, ns light as feathers and wholly free from the fer mented leavening which has made so many dyspeptics." A company, is to be formed, and this discovery commercialized, but in the long run it will no doubt become pub lic property. Considering the Ills that physicians charge to the account of an excess of starch" in the human diet, it this method shall render the starch more .digestible it wlU.xoiiKtituto a con siderable boon to suffering humanity. The anarchist conference held in Ber lin recently was so tame that the dis guised police In attendance decided not to interfere with the' proceedings. It would seem to be a good plan, however, for the Berlin police 'to keep an eye upon the new species. Even the tame anarchist is saier for not receiving the benefit of the doubt. The precedent established by Presi dent Hoosovelt when he half-masted the flag as a tribute to the dead Brit ish ambassador. Lord Pauncefote, was gracious and timely. It properly hon ored a distinguished friend. The Xew Era claims for Lancaster the honor of sheltering the prettiest women In America. The Xew Era man lias evidently never visited Scranton. Reasons Why It Looks Like Elkin b'roin the Philadelphia Ledger. THAT Senator Quay fears lie will bo slioit of di'lepates In tho Hepulillcnu state convention Is the Impression among politicians who have been observing the .senator's efforts during tho past week to yet emlon-emcnts of Judge Pennypacker from unlns'triiotert dclosn llons, ami to capture delegates elected in Attorney (ieneral illkin's Interest. The Beuutrir Is evidently not feeling com fortable over the situation. The nuccpk of the attorney general In picking up delepates in the Interior counties lins as tonished thu organization leaders, who expected thu Elkln campaign to collapse when the senator IshikiI his ultimatum six weeks ago ordering tho attorney gen eral out of tho gubernatorial race, In stead of golnir to pieces, Sir. Klkln's ciindiduc-y has grown btrongcr, until it threnleiiH to capture thu stale conven tion. Thu progress the attorney geueinl Is mnklng has forced tho (jtmyltcs to the conclusion thut thu opposition to liU nomination prior in his rejection by tho senator has since duvelopeil into a sort of sympathy, that has gained him dele gates bo would not have gotten under other circumstances, Ho lias also been assisted by tho fact that Senator Quay has supplanted him ns tho organization candidate for governor by u Phlladel phlan, and tho attorney general's friends have not failed to use t lit.'i in the rural (.ectlons, where the prejudlcn nuulnsl the city can be played upon with good of lecl. It has been tho experience of political lenders that there Is always an element In coiitestH which la anxious to get on the winning side: in the stutn chairman ship content of ISM, ll wus tho policy of Senator Quay to claim greater support than hq , could command, and ex. Statu Senator" Andrews, who conducted tho Quay side of (hat contest, actually re Jected the support of delegates, when they wero worjh their weight In gold,, declaring; "Wo have moro than a nia Jorltyiaud don't need any more." Thu result was thut tho floating delegates moved to tho Quay side, which won by a tsmall mujorlty. The ranio tactlus nio being pursued In tho present contest, Senator Quay'. Is showing lists of dele gates giving Judgo Pennypncker over '-'23 votes la tho state convention, nnd An. drews H being sent over the statu to nsHuro tho uuiiiHtructcil or weak-kneed delegates that "Elkln Isn't hi )l,V mid' thut they had "better go olong with the' old man." Thctc representations of thu senator and thu iiilt-slou of Andrews lire kflown to the politicians, and convince them ihnl the Mcavc'r man Is hot sure-of. controlling tho state convention. If ho were, tliey sny, he wotlld riot bo resort ing to a plan to strengthen his forces, that Is only adopted by thoso who need Votes In contests like tho present, i i m LITERARY' NOTES. That literary nblllty is Inherited would seem to bo a fact, Judging by the list nf contributors to the June St. Nicholas, in terest In tho capital story, ''Hunting the Puma," In Increased by tho fact that the iihthnr-lltustrntnr In a 17-year-old hid mid the' grandson or Edwin Hooth!
