New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1874-08-20
PENNSYLVANIA,

Various circumstances have contributed to
make the politics of Pennsylvania more cor
rupt than those of any other State-with the
possible exception of South Carolina-this side
of the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers. To say this
is indeed to predicate the extreme of politi-
cal debauchery, using, too, the word political
in its worst sense. The proceedings of the
Republican Convention held at Harrisburg
yesterday show that those who control the
party organization in that State are
unable to discern the signs of the
time. A year ago the notorious Phla-
adelphia Ring were defeated in their efforts to
secure the nomination of their man PaxsOn for
a Supreme Court Judgeship. Yesterday they
succeeded, and under the provisions of the new
Constitution of the State the nomination is
equivalent to an election, since two judges are
to be elected, and voter can place but one name
on his ballot The proceedings in yesterdays
and last years Conventions, and the charges and
criticisms that have appeared from time to time
in Pennsylvania newspapers, together with
the character of the support to which MIR.
Paxson is indebted for his nomination, are
sufficient comment on that gentleman's fitness
for the Supreme Bench. He was born in
Bucks County IN 1924, and is at present Asso-
ciate Justice of the Court of Common Pleas
of Philadelphia. The term of the judgeship for
which he is now nominated, and in effect
elected, is twenty-One years. He will have
six associates on the bench, and the one whose
term of office is soonest to expire is er OticiO
Chief-Justce. Judge Agnew is the senior OF
the five Judges who now constitute the Court.
The platform adopted by the Convention is
beneath contempt. The only real affirmation
in it in regard to National issues is that in
favor of Protection. 1t is significant, how
ever that the Convention did not venture to
come out fat-fOoted for initiation; and this
iustifes hope that the next delegation sent
to Congress by the State will have
less faith than the present one in the efficacy
of debauching the currency as a specific
for the revival of trade. Our dispatches show
that the Convention is not III favor OF third
term for President Grant. The work OF de-
fning their views On National questions has
been too much for many conventions this
season, but no convention has so signally
failed as that of the Pennsylvania Republic
cans The Democrats need never more pre-
tend to be alive if they cannot make better
schedule of their principles than the platform
adopted at Harrisburg.
The election to be held on the Sd of No
vember next will give the honest voters of
Pennsylvania better opportunity of repu-
dating those who have so long made mer-
chandise of politics than they have had for a
long time. The material interests of the State
have probably suffered more from the fnan-
cial crisis than those of any other section of
the Union, and arrangement of this kind al
WAYS unsettles politics. The new Constitu-
ton provides that no citizen shall be quail
fed to vote unless he shall have paid
a State or county tax within two years

Of the election, and at least one month before
the day it is held. There are also some pro-
visions against fraudulent counting and other
kinds of cheating which ought to be effective
even in Pennsylvania. 1t is therefore proba-
BILE that the count of the votes eleven weeks
hence will disclose the real choice of the peo-
pie concerning their representatives at Wash
ington and Harrisburg. 1t is heartily to be
wished that the best men may be chosen to
act in these capacities, and this can be brought
about by the voters through the exercise OF
manly independence regardless of party ties.
Politically the State is so close that neither
marty can afford to nominate bad men. The
Republicans have made bad beginning and
ought to suffer for it, The election of Mr..
Paxson, however, cannot in all probability DC
prevented, but it is possible for the people, In
choosing twenty seven members of Congress
and two hundred and fifty members of the
Legislature, to strike heavy blow at jobbery
and Ring rule. This, we trust, they will do.

IN EASY REMEDY FOR An OLD ABUSE.

On Monday night, during the Hester-st. fire,
the engine companies were compelled to stretch
their hose across the BOwery. and as cOnse-
quence the cars of the Second and Third Ave-
nue. Railroad Companies were compelled to
stop running during a large part of the even
ing. These lines are used by an immense
number of working people, tradesmen, and
other representatives of the great middle class,
whose homes on the upper end of the island
are not easily accessible by any other route;
and to them the inconvenience of such a stop
page amounts almost to the magnitude OF a
misfortune. And the spectacle of half mile
of horse cars waiting on each side of length
of hose stretched across their track is such q
common one that it hardly provOkes remon-
STRANGE.
DISTINCTIONS of this kind are unnecessary
and therefore inexcusable. They can be avoided
by supplying every engine and hose company
with a pair of light skeleton bridges, made
lust to fit the tracks and thrown over the hose
where it crosses the rails. Will the Fire De-
partment consider the suggestion
