ICyes of Thine." The words are by H.
Heine and the music it the composi

Democracy Is Not Dead.
There is something in the note of
warning sounded by the New York cor
respondent of the Philadelphia Press
with Immediate reference to the munic
ipal problem in the metropolis which
possesses general Interest and value.
After pointing out that the average
vote cast at the recent election for the
Tammany candidates reached about
105,000, he continues:
Therefore it is seen that In spite of the
revelations before the Lexow committee,
notwithstanding the overwhelming Im
pulse in the direction of Republican suc
cess, Tammany was able to control 1U5,W0
votes, and In these figures are to be Been
the menace which Is constantly before
those who have undertaken to establish
good government here. If that organiza
tion, In the face of emphatic public con
demnation and in spite of the mighty In
fluences that were making for Repub
licanism, is nevertheless able to poll 105,000
votes, or considerably more than onc
thlrd of the entire vote polled, then it is
not safe to assume that the organization
Is gol'ig to be broker, down simply be
cause Is has been once defeated. The Re
publicans are Inclined to the opinion that
they could have elected their candidate
without any Democratic help, but on
analysis of the official llgures does not
justify that claim. Had It been a straight
party Issue between the Republicans and
the Democrats, the Democracy would
have carried this 'city apparently by from
between 10,000 and 16,000 votes. In fact a
husty generalization permits the state
ment that the straight Republican vote
ond the straight Tammany vote hero
would not, upon comparison, vary in fig
ures more than two or three thousand.
That would leave some 50,000 voters In tho
city who are Independent enough to swing
from one party to the other, and these
persons have the balance of power. Kor
that reason it Is going to require great
prudence, a very thorough knowledge of
the situation, and good understanding of
what public sentiment may sustain, for
the Republicans to gain permanent fruits
of the victory.
In the larger nrena of national poli
tics, almost a similar condition prevails.
Vie are not of those who believe that an
overwhelming number of American cit
izens lately voted for Republican candi
dates for the single reason that they
were Republicans. Neither do we be
lleve that the Democratic party has
been permanently defeated. Upon
straight party lines, which are the lines
that the majority of our citizens ob
serve unless specially aroused by, a
crying necessity for concerted action,
the Republican and the Democratic
parties are about equal In point of num
bers. The people have repudiated
Democratic servants whom they deem
dishonest, unwise or unfit to govern,
and have elected Republican servants
believing them to be, In an emergency,
safer and abler. But the self-same fact
should admonish the latter that they
can remain In power only during good
behavior. The time has gone by in this
country when a controlling element In
Its citizenship can long be fooled by
partisan names and partisan claims
which do not have behind them the
collateral of prudent and effective legis
lative results.
The Tammany vote In New York, like
the southern Democratic vote In na
tional politics, Is the foundation stone
upon which Democratic ambition will
build a new structure that will yet be
crowned by the capstone of political
success unless Republicanism, as re
flected by Us leadership, shall be saga
clous, circumspect and faithful to Its
trust.
The Washington correspondent of the
Louisville Courier-Journal telegraphs
to his paper that "whencongress meets
next month Chairman Wilson, of the
ways and means committee, will report
a series of amendments to the new
' tariff law that will have for their ob
ject a reduction of tariff duties on a
number of articles contained in the va
rious schedules. These amendments will
have the support of the president, and
will be In liiarwlth the Chicago plat
form. They will be put' through the
house under suspension of rules, as it
will be the purpose of the majority to
'make the most of the short session
Every possible Influence will be brought
to bear on the senate to act on the
house h"i-" It prohAhb. that this
correspondent Is mistaken; and that the
burned children of the expiring con
gress will dread the tnrlff-tlnkering
fire even more than they will droad the
currency blunders of the experiment
alist in the white house. Hut In either
or any event, the tariff-smashing pro
gramme Is certain to come to grief ns
long as Mathew Stanley Quay, in the
senate, Is physically able to keep up his
"few remarks."
Alas, poor Joseph! He was, Indeed,
u, fellow of Infinite jest and gall.
The suggestion that C. Fred Wright
be nominated in" the' Fifteenth district
to fill out his brother's unexpired term,
and that afterward Wayne county be
promised Susquehanna's support,
seems,, upon Its face, fair and reason
able. It Is well known that Fred Wright
could more satisfactorily than any
other man take up the cares of the
congressional representation where his
brother dropped them, because ho is
more familiar with the exact status of
his brother's relinquished work.
Scranton, It seems, has two revenue
collectors. The other Is Sam Hudson.
An Unaccountable Attack.
We have waited with some curiosity
to see an explanation of the singularly
sudden and ferocious attack mude In
the' Rochester cathedral last Sunday by
Bishop McQunld upon Archbishop Ire
land. None has yet come. In that
sermon the- bishop, after confessing
that he, personally, had not voted for
twenty-seven .yearsan example of In
different citizenship hardly to be rec
ommended for general Imitation
charged viciously Into the St. Paul pre
late for his "undignified, disgraceful
and scandulous" Interference In tho
New York campaign. For upward of
twenty minutes, the Rochester bishop
delivered extraordinary Invective at
John Ireland's expense, concluding
finally- with the expressed hope that
this scandal" would yet receive "pub
lic rebuke."
The Rochester Post-Express, whose
editor Is a distinguished Catholic, com
menting upon this singular sermon, ad
mits that the thesis of it which is to
say that Catholic bishops and priests
should keep out of active party politics
Is sound. Yet It "fulls tu see that
there Is Justification for the attack In
the action for which Archbishop Ire
land Is specifically censured. Bishop
McQuald denounces him for taking part
In a political canvass In New York, on
the theory that he has no business In the
province of Archbishop Corrigan. Hut
If Archbishop Ireland had a right to
talk politics at all, he had as much
right to talk politics in New York as
in St. Paul, though he has no ecclesias
tical Jurisdiction here. Was It wise on
his part to talk politics at ull? Under
the circumstances we think It was."
In support of this belief the Post
Express recalls how the Democratic
state convention, by rushing through
an antl-A. P. A. plank, had sought to
convey the Impression that Republi
canism, In its union with the cause of
municipal reform, was somehow hostile
to the Catholic faith. It adds:
An attempt had been mude to bring the
question of religion Into our state can
vass. A leudlng priest In HufTulo had de
clared that all Catholic Republicans
should vote the Democratic ticket; priests
In New York had said the sume thing In
their pulpits; a priest In Rochester who
was a Republican had announced openly
his defection from his party on religious
considerations and tho Democratic candi
date had laid great stress on the relig
ious issue Involved. A general Impression
was growing that in some mysterious
way the Catholic church wa throwing
Its intliience for the Democratic party.
The fuct would have been a great mis
fortune to the country, to the Democracv,
and to all religion, nnd the illusion would
be only less evil than the fact. It was at
this juncture that Archbishop Ireland
stepped forward, repudiated the notion
that there wus a religious issue in the
canvass, declured that the Catholic
church should be In no way Identified with
any party, und advised every Catholic
citizen to vote on honest political con
viction. He . urged this as a matter of
policy no less than principle. There never
was an occuslon when It wus u plainer
duty on the part of some Catholic prelate
to net forth the doctrine than that on
which Archbishop Ireland spoke.
The substance of all Archbishop Ire
land's utterances during the New York
campaign may be expressed In ihe fol
lowing portion of his letter to the New
York World, published Just before elec
tion: Catholics say they deprecate sectarian
Ism In social and political uffairs. Let
them not give themselves the example of
It or permit others to make of It an issue
In the mime of Catholics. The church In
the eyes of Catholics should be so high,
so sublime, as to be above ull party poll
tics, truly universal and American in her
breadth of mini), and embrace of love. I
would not have her exclusively Republi
can. I would not have her exclusively
Democratic. I have no mission to give
Catholics political counsel.. In politics
priests and laymen stand on the came
ground as citizens and they vote ns tho
Judgment of each ono dictates. I can only
bid them vote with Intelligence, sincerity,
honesty, und fearlessness voting the
Democratic ticket, If they deem It the bet
ter one for the country, or the Republican
ticket, if this seems the better. But I
can counsel them, as I do, to allow no
cry of religious bigotry to sway them, to
bo moved by no sectionul hatred, to give
credence to no vain rumors nnd accusa
tions. If there are. men who drag re
ligion Into politics, let it not be the Cath
olics, who even under penalty of some
sacrifice-must give to tho country tho
highest example of exalted citizenship,
and of politics utterly free from reli
gious bias. The peace and prosperity of
America demands this of all her citizens.
I repeat, there Is no religions Question In
American politics today, and a mention of
one should not be heeded or tolerated.
We must confess we share the Post
Express' surprise at discovering that
there Is 'anything "undignified," "dis
graceful" or "scandalous" In such an
utterance as this; anything offensive to
fair play or dangerous to good citizen
ship. In our view. It looks like the
advice of a genuine patriot, and we do
not perceive that it Is susceptible of so
much as one Iota of. Improvement.
Furthermore, we do not believe, from
what we know of the Catholics of this
vicinity, that they will regard Arch
bishop Ireland's course as derogatory
to the fame or glory of their church.
Upon Unreverse, It will., we dare say,
grieve them exceedingly to find Bishop
M'Qfuald talking In a strain bo Irrecon
cilable with the known facts.
There are exceptions, of course, to
every rule; but It Is still the rale that
election contests don't pay.
It Is asserted In a WIlkes-Barre dis
patch that Representative Harvey, of
the Second Luzerne district Is opposed
to the Quay county movement. We
question the truth of this assertion.
Mr. Harvey has said that he would vote
In accordance with the wishes of his
constituents; and It Is our belief that a
majority of those constituents favor di
vision. The Democratic Philadelphia Times
has a thorough, right to tell Governor
eKct Hastings whom not to appoint to
office; and Governor-elect Hastings, by
the same token, should quickly appoint
that very fellow.
Now that he's as good as elected
speuker, Harry Walton need not be
surprised at his wonderful popularity
on the floor of the house.
The recent Intimation that Western
Pennsylvania would, be "next" has at
tracted a large array of Republican tal
ent to the pie counter.
They might at least let General Hast
ings get settled comfortably In the
gubernatorial chair before hurling him
into the hypothetical.
If we were disposed to make-a guess
ns to the next mayor of Philadelphia wo
should say that his name, would be
Boles Penrose.
CHATS HY THE WAY.
The reminiscences of congressional cam
paigns in the Fifteenth district call to
mind vividly one of the Instances of the
visitations of political lightning as Illus
trated In the ense of Congressman Georso
A. Post, who represented the district In
the Forty-eighth congress. Young Post,
who had previously been employed as a
clerk In tho Erie offices at Susquehanna,
hud been admitted to the county bar, and
hud decided to go west and practice law.
In order to get un advertisement for
himself in the far west he sought the
complimentary nomination for congress
on the Democratic ticket. As there wus
apparently not a ray of hope for the elec
tion of any Democrat at that time the
party good-naturedly allowed the boy to
curry off the empty honor of a nomina
tion. Post entered the campaign pre
pared to immortalize himself as a stump
speuker in any event.
Suddenly there was a disturbance In the
Republican camp. Colonel Overton wus
nominated by the regular conferrees. C.
C. Jiiihvln bolted, and as an Independent
candidate carried the solid Republican
vote of Wayne, while Overton held the
Bradford vote. Susquehanna and Wy
oming scattered and as a result Mr. Post
secured the prize. Prominent Democrats
of tho Fifteenth district who ullowed the
plum to slip through their fingers by
this relaxation of vigilance have been
kicking themselves since for the lost op
portunity that Is not liable to come again
during the present century. Mr. Post was
the youngest member of congress, and
was quite popular with the members of
the Korty-elghlh . body. Hut he was
promptly turned down at the next election
when the waning Republican leaders had
regained their senses and a Republican
was sent to represent the district. Mr.
Post entered Journalism; was for a time
editor of the Jlontrose Democrat and wus
afterward connected with the New York
World. At present he Is secretary and
treasurer of a mining company, and, like
Democracy In general, has nothing to ex
pect from the Fifteenth district.
The good government leagues appear
to be making rapid strides In this as well
as in other sections of the country. Mem
bers of the organizations are straining ev
ery nerve to promote a spirit of Interest
In politics that will call the best citizens
to caucusses and invoke the aid of the
cluss of citizens who usually shun vot
ing places at all times.
The explosion of the peanut ronster en
gine at the corner of Lackawanna and
Wyoming avenues yesterday afternoon
will probably have an effect In assisting
toward ubatlng the sidewalk mercantile
nuisance. The corner fruit stand has
long been un eye-sore In Scranton and
when It Is loaded with explosives, it
would seem about time that some steps
were taken to curb the dangerous enter
prise. Even In case there Is no ordinance
by which the curb-stone merchant can be
reached, there is no question that the
steum engine peanut features will be
come unpopular with the people who rent
ten-foot reservation privileges to tho
street vendors. Tho presence of the little
machine which Is liable tb perform the
dynamite bomb act almost liny time Is
not likely to attract many customers to
the vicinity In which It Is situated.
Wllkes-Hnrre's bou'rd'of trade Is boom
ing these days under the direction of Sec
tary Ed A. Nlven, the well known jour
nalist. Mr. Nlven has recently been doing
lively hustling In the Interest of the board,
and his familiarity with newspaper work
enables him to attend to the most essen
tial iletulls with ease and dispatch. It is
undoubtedly true that a practical newspa
per man has the advantage In work of this
kind. The Scranton board of trnde made
ts first rapid progress during the years
that tho office of secretary was filled by J.
Harry Fisher, who graduated to the po
sition from the city editor's chair on tho
Republican. Previous to Mr. Fisher's ad
ministration the board hail been un ex
ceedingly quiet und conservative organiz
ation, but under his active management
the membership was doubled and a spirit
of Interest wus worked up that haH borne
good fruit In the establishment of many
substantial enterprises. While good work
has been accomplished by the secretaries
who have followed Mr. Fisher, It must be
admitted that It was a newspaper mun
that first started tho bull.

The claim upon which Judge Sltlscr, of
Wyoming county, will contest is that In
several Wyoming county districts 81 bal
lots were cast for him that were not
counted. The voters were Republicans
and put a cross In the circle at tho top of
the Republican ticket and another cross
opposite the name of Judge. Hittser In the
Democratlu ticket. The election officers,
It Is said, ignored the Slttser cross an 1
couiUed these votes for the full Repub
lican ticket, Dunham included. If these
votes are thus counted Slttser Is elected
by 62 majority over Dunham, This will
be the only point to be decided In the
contest.
