WHILE the Republican organs;
everywhere are making frantic ap
peals to their misguided devotees to
"get together" they fail to notice that:
about three-fourths of the party are
making desperate efforts to get from :
under the next Democratic landslide.
They are getting together on the
other side of the political fence as fast
as they can pull the wool from their
eyes.
AGAINST the drop in wool, the slump
in iron, and the general inactivity in
business operations the high tariff
gentry oppose an assertive silence.
They cannot account for it all: there
fore they sit on their haunches and
hope that the farmers with their big
crops will pull them out of the ditch.
Meantime the voters are considering
and comparing the last year's prophe
cies with this year's facts. — llecord.
HARMONY among Luzerne County
Republicans is spelled at Wilkes-Barre
with a little "h." At the meeting in
the First District on Tuesday to send
a representative to the State conven
tion eleven delegates bolted and held
a meeting of their own, electing Jim
my Thomas as State delegate. The j
regular convention elected Chas. A. i
Miner, and the split means a glorious
war between the factions. More fun
ahead for the Democrats 1
TIIE Chicago Tribune , a stauch Re
publican organ, has an irresistible
habit of telling the truth whenever it
thinks such action is necessary. It
talks right out in meeting without the
slightest regard to the parson's views
on the subject, and the other day ex
ploded a little two-worded boom in
the camp, the echoes of which can be
heard all through the West. It sized
up the McKinley bill, and after pay
ing its respects to all protection meas
ures in general, terms the former a
"brainless blunder." The expression
contains volumes condensed.
THE cowardly attitude taken upon
the semi-monthly pay and company
store laws by the newspapers of the
anthracite region is a disgrace. Edi
tors whose journals are supported
largely by workingmen are afraid to
call attention to law-breaking corpora
tions, for fear it might offend some of
their anarchistic friends and result in
the loss of a few dollars' patronage.
Scarcely a dozen papers in the State
have taken a stand upon these two
questions, and while editors remain
neutral operators defy the laws more
openly every day. Speak out and de
mand the enforcement of at least
those laws passed this year.
THE reports given out by Itrad
streets state that business failures in
the United States number 252, against
180 in the same week last year. The
total, January 1 to date, is 0917,
against GOG 9 last year. Nearly 900
failures more than last year iB a nice
little feather for McKinley's tariff' hat.
"But," says the Republicans, "give
the law a chance." It has been in
operation ten months, has accepted
every chance and yet the business de
pression increases at an alarming
rate. Great is the power of protec
tion! Let the country have more of
it, and Bee if the voters can't be
brought to their senses.
A MOVEMENT is on foot, with every
prospect of success, to unite the twin
cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul in '
one great city. Strangely enough,
the greatest difficulty seems to be the
selection of a name. Half a dozen or
more barbarous compounds of the
two present names have been sug
gested, ranging from "Minnepaul" to
"Paulopolis." Paul and Minne have
been squabbling for years about their
respective greatness, and the pro
posed union will put an end to all
kinds of bickering. It is also very
probable that before the next censuß
Brooklyn and New York will be
united. If these municipal marriages
arc successful Chicago will cast
sheep's eyes nt St. Louis and take her
erstwhile rival for a partner.
THE miners and laborers around
here are going fairly wild over the
high tariff. Why, they wouldn't be
without the nrticle for anything. It
is the greatest blessing that was ever
conferred upon any class of working
men. It prevents trouble among
them; it prevents strikes; it enables
the operators to run their collieries
without interruption; it makes the
power of the boss omnipotent; the
miner doesn't get chanco to kick,
which saves him much mental and
bodily suffering; it gives the laborer
a chance to knock off' work and enjoy
a vacation at the seaside, for there
are always plenty of men around to
accept a job, thanks to the high tariff.
Yes, a high tariff is a great blessing
to the miners and laborers. No
wonder they throw their hats in the
air and shout for it.- — Newsdealer.
How can you be so sarcastic! Lot
the party of the bloody shirt and
looted treasury die in peace.
Quay and Dudley yesterday resigned

The Country's Pauper Population.
There would be much more satisfac
tion in referring to the work of the
Census Bureau if there were not so wide
spread a distrust of the accuracy of its
reports. One of its latest bulletins gives
the statistics of the pauper population in
almshouses in the United States during
the year 1890. These statistics, which
appear to have been gathered from State
reports on the oubject to which they
relate, are as questionable as the recent
census returns in regard to school at
tendance, which have challenged, es
pecially in Pennsylvania, strong denials
of their authenticity.
It appears from this bulletin that the
total number of paupers in almshouses
in the United States in 1890 was 73,045,
while the total number reported in 1880
was (50,203. As the population of the
United States in 1890 was 62,622,250, the
ratio of paupers is one to 857, or 1166 to
j the million. In 1880, with a population
! of 50,155,783, the ratio of paupers was
one to 758 inhabitants, or 1820 to the
million. This would be a very excellent
j showing in regard to the comparative
freedom of the country from the taint of
pauperism if the census returns could be
depended upon.^
Next to New York, with a pauper pop
ulation of 10,272 in almshouses, comes
Pennsylvania, with a total of 8653. But
what is very remarkable about these sta
tistics is the fact that the total number
of almshouse paupers returned in this
State in 1880 was 9184. The ratio of
paupers in 1880 was one to 2144, and in
1890 one to 1646 inhabitants of Pennsyl
vania. Is it possible that with the large
increase of population, especially with
the excessive lodgment of undesirable
foreign elements and with the distress
in portions of the coal regions, pau
perism has absolutely declined in Penn
sylvania in the last ten years? If these
returns be correct this remarkable result
has been achieved under the most un
toward conditions. While the census
bulletins show that that the school at
tendance in Pennsylvania has greatly
declined in comparison with most of the
States, they also show that pauperism,
the reputed concomitant of ignorance,
has declined at the same time.
The census returns give in addition
the outdoor paupers in the United States,
from which it appears that the total
number of this class of paupers has also
fallen in Pennsylvania from 2502 in 1880
to 2000 in 1890. Not less than 28 coun
ties are given in Pennsylvania as having
"no county almshouse." Included in
the list are the populous counties of
Lackawanna, Lycoming, Northumber
land, Clearfield, Centre and Columbia.
Whether the paupers of these counties
(for they have some) are included in the
"outdoor" class, or are not counted at
all, cannot be determined from this cen
sus bulletin. But there is strong ground
for assuming that the statistics in regard
to pauperism in the United States are as
loose and untrustworthy as much of the
rest of the work of the Census Bureau.
—Phila. llecord.
A Skeleton State.
The census bulletin giving the popula
tion of Nevada in detail strikingly ex
hibits the blunder, if not something
worse than a blunder, of enacting that
section of the Comstock lode into a State
of the American Union co-equal, in the
Senate, with New York or Pennsylvania.
In 1880 Nevada had a population of 62,-
266. This was insignificant enough, one
would think when placed alongside the
5,248,574 of this iState. It was not equal
to one-half the Congressional ratio, 151,-
000. But it has been growing smaller
ever since 1880, and in 1800 it was only
45,761 —a loss of 26 per cent in the
decade. Nevada was admitted into the I
Union in 1864, when it had only 40,000
inhabitants, the presumption being that
it would grow like all other new States.
Besides, the Republican party was sup
posed to be in need of additional votes
in the Senate, and the diminutive State
was allowed to come in on condition that
it would supply two of them. But the
Comstock lone began to fail 12 years ago.
and the State commenced a course of
decline with it, and kept going down,
until now it lias a population but little
larger than the city of Wilkes-Barre to
rest its two United States Senators and
one Representative upon.
Free America.
Some curious cases are arising under
the operation of the immigration law.
Last week a young Hebrew, born in
Russia, was not allowed to land at New
York on account of his poverty. He
was driven from his native land on ac
count of his race. The charity of a few
poor friends enabled him to reach an
Atlantic port, whence he sailed to New
York. Without a home in the land of
his birth, and prevented from seeking a
home in the country which used to be a
place of refuge for the oppressed of all
lands, he is assuredly in an evil plight.
The strange case of Frank Sherman is
still pending. He was born in America,
lived in Chicago, went to New York to
get work, crossed the ocean as a cattle
tender, was stranded in London, and
made his way to New Y r ork as a "stow
away." Gen. O'Beirne, the acting su
perintendent of the Barge Office, says
that the law will not permit his landing
and that he must he sent back to Eng
land.
This is interpreting the law in such a
way as to effect the banishment of an
American citizen—a result which the
statute never contemplated. There has
been more or less foolishness from the
start in operating the law relating to the
admisssion of immigrants, but now the
time certainly seems to have arrived
when, in its construction, some regard
should be paid to the dictates both of
common humanity ami common sense.
\Vnaliington Post.
The tlreat Problem ami the Remedy.
Indiscriminate, or careless, or im
properly directed charity, it ii. now
ascertained, does, absolutely and rela
tively, more harm than good, causes
more suffering in the long run than it
relieves misery. Me who gives a dime
to a street beggar is often committing a
crime, legally in many States, morally
in all. The self-denying act is not that
of the man who gives to the first asker.
In modern communities duty requires a
refusal, and it is often harder to refuse
than to give.
Hut organized charity faces more diffi
cult problems. It is a necessity; it is
much abused, its good effect is lessened
by two classes, the fraudulent poor and
the unthinking rich. Charity, to be jus
tifiable, must not injure the community.
Too often it injures both the community
and the individual. No har.l and fast
line can he drawn between beneficial
charities, such as those for the insane,
blind and mute, where the good to the
individual does not injure the commu
nity or actually benefits it, and injurious
charities, such as those that discourage
labor by the able-bodied or encourage
drink in all classes.
Hut it is promising to find that much
of the official charity in this .State is of
the right kind. The report just printed
by the Secretary of State shows that one
hundred and twenty-five thousand pau
pers were assisted by towns and counties
in this State during 18SH). Of this num
ber about fifteen thousand cases were
directly due to alcohol and another eight
thousand to idleness and vagrancy. The
small amount of pauperism attributable
to the alcohol habit will be a surprise to j
those accustomed to hear all the ills that !
flesh is heir to ascribed to this one cause.
Still, the great problem that must stay
j by us, who live in civilized communities,
i at least until we have abolished poverty
by the single tax or some other method,
is so to regulate our charities as not to
encourage pauperism or crime.—N. Y.

Wlegaml Will Win.
J. C. Wiegand, of Hazleton, who an- j
nounces himself as a candidate for the
Democratic nomination of prothonotary, !
has every reason to feel pleased at the j
manner in which his name has been j
received throughout the county. With-!
out doubt he is one of the strongest men
in the party, and the lower "end would
be ably represented on the ticket by his j
nomination. Of Mr. Wiegand's candi- |
daey the Newsdealer has this to say:
lie is a first-class citizen and stands '
high in the estimation of all. lie is in
the fight to win, and with his political
knowledge will get there if possible, j
Although young in years he has both
ability and ambition to make a success- ;
ful official. Of good old German ances- :
try, educated, intelligent and agreeable, I
he is just the sort of man the Democracy :
wants on the ticket this year. We are
more than pleased to announce his can
didacy, and believe that the convention
will agree with us that he is the man
that is needed for that important office.
The Power of the "Ad."
It is wonderful how a system of exten
sive advertising benefits the advertiser.
Wanamaker's advertising has not only
made him the millionaire that he is, but
it also incidentally protects him against
criticism in regard to his apparent crook
ed transaction and relation to the looted
Keystone Bank, and with possibly few
exceptions the newspapers enjoying his
advertising patronage are either dumb
as oysters in regard to his alleged parti
cipation in the bad business, or, pro
nounce his denial a complete and happy
vindication. And the same is true in !
regard to his infamous job of raising a
$400,006 corruption fund in 1888 to buy '
up "floaters in blocks of five." That
most disgraceful achievement is seldom
referred to even by Democratic papers
carrying his advertisement. Therefore,
it not only pays directly to advertise,
but it also protects eminent reputation
for "honesty" and "piety," even if both
are bogus!— Mauch Clio ok Democrat.
I Feeling Politicians' Pulses.
The Ecening Bulletin, of Philadelphia,
has published a page of opinions of so
called representative men from all parts
of the State on the constitutional conven
tion question. The consensus of opinion
seems to be strongly opposed to a con
vention to revise the constitution. All
the leading Republicans oppose it ex- j
cept Quay, who does not express him- !
self. Powderly and his followers favor !
the convention. Such Democrats as'
Senator Ross, ex-Collector Bigler, ex- j
Senator Wallace and Secretary Harrity i
are opposed to it, while Attorney Gen
eral liensel and other prominent people
uphold it. From present indications the j
convention will be defeated. Perhaps j
it would be better so, as most of the men i
proposed as delegates from both parties j
are tricksters who would knife every re
form clause introduced.
