When State Senator William FiiDn
sarcastically suggested that Senator
Quay be a candidate for State Treasu
rer this year he had evidently forgot
ten that some years ago the Flinsia of
that day did the same thing, and that
t-jay accepted the challenge and was
elected by the largest majority ever
given a candidate for State Treasurer
up to that time. And, should Quay
accept the nomination this year, the
result would be the same; the lie publi
can voters would give him a mj uiiy
that would make the head of every
' Insurgent" ia the State swim.

The trade papers are all enthusiastic
over the business situation. They say,
what every intelligent person knows to
be true, that trade was never more act
ive in the Uuited States than it is at
this moment. The outlook, too, is that
this activity will increase instead of
diminish. liauk clearances, railroad
earnings and production in all the lead
ing industries are at the highest figures
ever touched. Labor is more actively
employed than ever lefore, and wages
has been advanced all along the Hue iu
tl pa-.t few looiilhs. It is no woudt-r
that the BryauiU-s are dissatisfied with
these conditions. In this period of
great industrial prosperity the eslam

Till" reports of the d-ima to the
wheat crop may give some hopes to
the Democrats. Calamity furnishes
them their only ch-uie? for victory. It
is Well to bear iu mind, however, that
about this time nearly every year pre
dictions are made that the grain crop
will be small. It is too early in the
season yet to form any j-idgments as to
the extent of the wheat yield which
will be good for anything. After its
recent heavy crops the counfry could
stand a small grain yield better than it
could have done at almost any time in
. the past, but it is reasonable to hope
that fortune will be kind to us. More
over, it would take a pretty extensive
and variegated lot of calamities lo over
come the Democratic discredit aud give
that party anv chance to carry the
ouutry.
The alleged Ilepublicau members of
the recent Ix-gislature who denied the
right of the majority to rule and refustd
to vote for the party nominee for Uui
ted Slates Senator are iu a dilemma,
they having advanced the excuse for
He ir action that they could not support
a candidate for Senator w hile indict
ments were pending against him in the
Philadelphia couits, a subterfuge that
no longwr affords them cover. The real
cause of their opposition hving been a
desire to unhorse the "Old Man," and
wrest from him his political power,
they uow are seeking some plausible
excuse for continuing their opposition

UNITED .STATES SENATOR FkYE Saj8
that he will vote to seat Senator Quay
whenever the latter'9 case comes be

ber, and Colonel Dudley, of Indiana,
one of the most astute isjlitieiaiis in
the country, sajs he des not see how
the Senate can refuse to eeat the man
from Dearer. And so it goes, says the
I larrUbarg Telegraph. All fair-minded
meu are disposed to view the case as
already settled, and to take it for grant
ed that he w ill get his seat in the Uni
ted States Senate without any material
opposition except that from a few dis
gruntled Mugwumps who would be
against Quay under any aud all cir
cumstanced. When the United States
Senate meets, the coaimission of Sena
tor tj iay wilrbe presented and referred
to a committee, which will report that
he is entitled under the Constitution of
the Uuited Suites to the seat, aud the
Seuate will adopt the report. Then
Senator Quay will take Lis seat, and he
will serve two years until the Pennsyl
vania Legislature shall elect him to
snr for the full term in It is
all very (simple, and it will all meet the
views of the people of this State. 1 he

The auti-Ouav press of the Stale
seems to have some very erroneous con
ceptious as to the statute of limitations
relating to criminal eases. Now that a
jury of his peers, after a fair aud im
partial trial, have found Senator Quay
guiltless of any of the charges brought
by the band of conspirators w ho sought
by the f..'ilest and most despicable
methods lo ruin his character and de
stroy his political inlluuiee, these same
conspirators, through the newspapers
ihey control, continue to reiterate their
baseless charges, to sneer at the Court
before whom the trial was had, aud to
iii-iit th'itOuay would have been con
victed hud it not teen that he 'pleaded
the statute of limitations. Now, the
irnlh of the matter is, Mr. Q i iy did
not plead the statute of limitations for
the reason that, under the law, no evi
dence was admissible, with or without
his assent, that did not relate to alleged
offenses committed within the time
prescribed by law for their punishment.
The statute is not pleaded in criminal
cases for the reanou that the law is im
perious in its mandate that an alleged
ctlense, if not within the statutory pe
riod, can not be tried, nor could a de
fendant be convicted even if he and
his counsel were silent as to the statute.
The statute of limitations iu criminal
ases is absolutely mandatory. It pro
hibits the District Attorney from briug
ing or even exhibiting to a grand jury
au indictment for a crime or misde
meanor that is not w ithki the statutory
limitations, aud a defendant in a crim
inal case could not, even with his own
insent, have judgment upon a verdict
against him if the ali ped offense had
not been committed within the peri(d
prcseriUd by the statute.

These insurgents made clia-w out of the

The insurgents have grimly marched

have been warned by the Republican
voters at the various county primaries.
They have refused to take the warning.
They have defied the Republican major

have sought to destroy the basis of all
free eovernment, the rihl of the major

consequences of their folly and of their
party perfidy. Tbey have refused to per

Now the question that naturally arises

Senator Flinn suggests that Quay
should run for state treasurer to obtain a
Domilar vindication. How would Flinn
like to tackle the job of heading the op
position Jcket ? People who think they
know sav he nteds a vindication pretty
badly.
A tiumlwr of I'nited State Senators,
some from each party, have announced
that they will vole to admitSeiiatorQuay.
It seems to be the general opiuiou now
that the Seuate will reverse its recent de

from Pennsylvania at its next session.

Thero is pxd ground for the removal of

las been rrofroiited with a very un
piearatit nnd disagreeable task. The
legislrdtie adjourned leaving him to
prnn!e with a problem In which the
whole reople are keenly interested. It
Is that f f the state finance. With reck
le,s disreratd for the credit of Penn
sylvania and the honor of the Republi
can party, vhl.-h has been charged
wilh the administration of the affairs
of the commonwealth, the legislature
failed to muke suitable provision to
meet the current obligations of the
state. This omission and the fact that
appropriation bills were passed with-f.i-t
stopuir.g to consider how the pay
ments provide therein were to be
paid, can he charged up to the bo
calle'd Republican insurgents. These
men started out at the -beginning of
the session to hamper, harass and dis
credit the administration of Governor
Stone in eveo possible manner. They
formed pr. alliance with the Demo
crats l-i both the senate and the house,
and '..ntil the closing hours of the ses
sion they were found working hand in
b-n,' with pemocratic leaders block

propriations whl' h. cwiug to the de-nl-'ted
condition of the Btate treasury

to have the suite retain the personal
property tax for to years, the bulk
of which would come from Pittsburg
trd Pl.iU.lelphia. and which. It would
be auppoied. the members from the In
terior countiej would support, was Lit
terly fo-.iglit by tnese insurgents. With
the helo of the Democrats they de
feated the bill intended to carry this
..;-.n into effect. They also defeated
the bill providing for a direct inheri
tance tax and several ether measures
which woitl.l have netted the state an
lnuiicn:..; anvcuit of revenue.

enormous sum of $1 l.("ni,Oi.O for the

It is a positive disgrace that the state
is not to have a capital bcflttinc Us

a disgrace that such a proud state
fliottld be left without adsipntte funds
to take care of the great institutions
which have crown tin within its bor

Second in r.ierit are the state Insr-.ne

The third class of appropriations

doing without state aid. H declare?

to do it 1 shall not hesitate to assume
the responsibility. It was the duty of
the legislature to provide sufficient
revenue to enable rr.e to approve this

"I shall l,e very sorry If the revenue
Is insufficient to enable me to approve

"I make this announcement now be
