HOPE OF UNION IN PENNSYLVANIA.


The Republican situation in Pennsylvania
grows in interest daily. The tide appears to
be setting strongly against Cameron and his
methods, for not day passes without devel-
opng some fresh disaster to him and his luck
less ticket. Chairman Lear's letter repudiatlng
the call for second edition OF the machine
Convention has been followed by similar
and equally damaging one from Mr.. Marshall,
the only candidate on the Cameron ticket
whose nomination was spontaneous. Delegates
from many counties have declared their in
tention not to attend the second Convention,
and others say they will go, but only for the
purpose of urging those present to unite IN
favor of a new Convention and n new ticket.
A rumor, whether well founded or not we are
not able to Judge, is circulating in the State
that the President has advised Senator Cam
eron to submit to new Convention made up
of delegates chosen by the whole party.
We have repeatedly expressed our hope
that an amicable agreement of some KIND
might be reached and this hope is encouraged
by growing sentiment in favor OF such step
among the masses of the party. The gravity
of the situation is felt on all sides, as a second
instalment of letters from earnest Republicans
in various parts of the State, which we pub
lsh this morning, shows. The writers unite In
saying that unless an agreement of some kind
is reached, the party must suffer defeat.
Nearly all of them, it will be seen, look upon
Cameron and his boss system as the chief
cause of all the trouble. 1t is evident that
there can be no peace which does not include
his downfall. We believe that the party is
enough stronger than he is to overthrow him
and save itself at the same time.

4 RAILROAD COMuLSSION.

Governor Cornell yesterday signed the bill
creating State Board of Railroad Commits
soners. No measure of the last legislative
session engrossed more time or called out a
greater volume of conflicting views. And yet
it is scarcely too much to say that of all
the various shapes in which the bill was pre-
scented that in which it finally passed both
Houses was the one most open to criticism.
The law which now goes upon the statute
books provides that the Commissioners,
three in number shall be appointed by
the Governor to be elected this fall,
and that one shall be taken from the Repub-
hcan party, another from the Democratic
party, and the third shall be appointed on the
recommendation of the New-York Chamber of
Commerce, the Board of Trade and Trans
portation and the Anti Monopoly League.
1t thus appears that the appointing
power for this important purpose is
in two parts, two-thirds of it being
lodged in the coming Executive, and the
rest in three organizations no one of which is
responsible to the people, while one of them
is but another name for a politicO- oleo-
margarine metropolitan grocery house.
Level headed men do not believe that a Rail
road Commission up to the requirements of the
hour is to be obtained by any such method,
and they see nothing but pitiful partisanship
in the provision taking the appointment
of the Commission out of the hands of the pres
ent Governor, where it naturally belongs. The
BILL in its main provisions, follows the bill re-
ported by the Hepburn Committee, but
whether it is adequate or not can only
be determined from its operation. The
question of its constitutionality is likely to be
seriously raised-a fact which was established
on Tuesday last at the hearing before the Gov
ernor. 1t is well enough, however, on the
whole, that it should become law. If it

Yesterday was Mr.. Stranahans last day in
the office of the Brooklyn Park Board, OF
which he has been the president ever since It's
organization, twenty-five years ago. NOT only
has "the Magician "-as he is popularity known
been the head of the Board he has practi-
cally been the Board itself. His influence has
been paramount in all the work of the
Department. Prospect Park and the
Ocean Parkway to COney Island will long
be remembered as illustrations of his judg-
ment and executive ability. MIR. Stranahans
position is quite anomalous In brooklyn
politics. member of the minority party,
he has retained his position as Park
Commissioner through many administrations
he has never been what is called working
politician, and he has not had a personal fol-
lowing. In fact, he may be said not to have
been in politics at all, if by politics we mean
conventions, caucuses, county committees and
the like. Whether Mayor Low, whose judg-
ment does not seem to have been at fault thus
far in his administration, has done wisely to
depose the Magician" time will show The
new Commissioners will take up work that is
well advanced and will have little to do III
the way of organization, in which MIR. Strana-
han displayed perhaps his greatest efficiency.

The letter which contains this astonishing
compound of immortality and blasphemy Is
called by the leading Democratic newspaper OF
the State "strong and straightforward" and
attention is called to the importance and
urgency of the views i" which the correspondent
submits. Comment would be superfluous upon
revelation like this. The public conscience

4 SHOCKING REVELATTON.

We quote in another column some very re-
markabe utterances from the Bourbon Demo
Gratis of South Carolina. A correspondent, who
signs himself "T gefeld," and whose letter is
printed cOnspicuOusly and in large type in the
leading Bourbon organ of the State, abuses
roundly the Democratic Legislature for pass
ing q Registration law which says that the
ballots for Congressman shall be cast in
separate box. The provision he denounces
as "folly, cOwardice and treason to the
Democratic party" And why Because it
stands in the way of an honest vote Oh, no.
Because it stands in the way of fraud He
says the "mOst ignorant voter would have no
trouble in finding the Congressional box and
getting his ticket into it, where it would have
to be counted, and the dreadful result would
be that the Democrats would lose nearly every
Congressional district in the State.
He dwells upon this appalling prospect with a
frankness of expression simply astounding. "In
no event." he declares, should South Carolina
abandon more than one district to the negroes"
But unless there is something done about this
"disgraceful law, they are likely to get a
good many more than that, for he notices that
"every negro in South Carolina is registering"
animated undoubtedly by the iendish purpose
of getting his ticket into the right box, and
having it counted. This virtuous and indig-
nant Bourbon has pious hope that this great
danger may be averted. He says the only
remedy is to have the Legislature correct the
bill by abolishing the separate box. lie re-
calls the fact that special session is about TO
be held, and rolling I'D his eyes, exclaims :

Late English papers contain the report for 1881
of the National Life-boat Institution. which, as our
readers know is charitable association supported
by voluntary offerings, whose object is to furnish
lfe-savng stations and appliances and to reward
volunteer crews for the rescue of the shipwrecked
A comparison OF the relative work done by this
voluntary association and our own paid Life-Savng
Service in the same time IS useful and suggestive
The coasts 10 be guarded do not differ much in ex-
tent that Of Great Britain is, however the larger.
In 1851 the British institution had been in opera
ton fftyeight years, during which time it had e1-
pended on hfe-boat stations and other means for
saving life upward of j., s50.000 besides 1891 900
and 943 gold and silver medals given as rewards
for saving life The number of lives saved in these
fty-eight years is % 724 averaging 495 each year.
Our own service since its organization has been in
operation ten years, during which time the number
Of lives saved has been II, $50 averaging lSS each
year, more than double the number rescued by the
volunteer crews 1t should be remembered, too,
that the American report is that of only the life
saving crews, while the British includes every life
saved from drowning by the individual effort of
any person whatsoever in the United Kingdom.
The expenditures of the English association average
$2i4, 1913 year. During the year 1881, 800 lives
were saved in England by voluntary effort, for
which this association gave rewards in money or
medals. during the same year Loon iiNos III pclil
Of drowning were rescued by our paid crews; no
record is kept of voluntary acts of herosm on any
river lake or on the high seas. These figures, more
than any argument, prove the superiority OF
a thoroughly drilled skilled corps of men to the ran
dom though well-meant attempts of undlsciplined
individuals.

The same Interruptions are met with in the
Malley trial that are usual in jury causes
when they last a long time. Sickness and
death are almost sure to affect some juror and
bring about an adjournment. When the State
finished its case several weeks ago, public
opinion was that the accused persons had GER
tainly not been proved guilty of murder.
Wonder was expressed that their counsel did
not at that time allow the case to go to
the jury. That this was the opinion of some
