The American, Philadelphia Repub-
lican newspaper edited by Wharton
Barker, sums up the state canvass in
this style: The canvass in Pennsyl-
vania gives every reason for satisfaction
to all those who desire to see the Com.
monwealth escape new and great dis
grace. The extent of the Republican
purpose to throw Delamater overheard
with his principal is abundantly suffi-
cient to make the result sure. We have
no present doubt whatever of the cleo
ton Of Governor Pattison by majority
in excess Of that which he had in 1882,
and in saying this we are speaking from
knowledge, and not because the wish is
father to the thought. Delamater has
been making frantic efforts to stem the
tide, but this is impossible. Whatever
impression he has made is unimportant,
and the names Of individuals which are
paraded as now enlisted in his behalf
have lite or no practical bearing on the
The self-respecting Republi-
cans Of the state, and those in other
states who realize that the salvation of
The party nationally depends on the
overthrow of Quayism this year, may be
assured that it is "in the wood" and
will be hewn out clean and sure.

The ticket nominated by the Demo-
cratic County Convention on Tuesday is
one that every Democrat in the county
can honestly support. The nominees,
so far as location and nationality are
concerned, are pretty well mixed.
The convention was truly representa-
tive one and was composed Of men who
had gathered together with no object in
view but the good Of the party. With
few exceptions the delegates came to the
convention instructed for one or more Of
the candidates, and to those, who re-
NAMED faithful to their pledge, much
credit is due. To those delegates from
Foster Township, Freeland Borough and
the adjacent districts of Hazle Township
too much praise cannot be given them.
These men came to the convention as
delegates duly instructed for John S.
McGroarty as the choice Of their con-
stituents for the Office of County Treas
urer, and neither threats or money could
swerve them from the stand they had
taken. And why should they not sup
port him? John S. McGroarty first saw
the light of day in Foster Township, and,
though not strictly resident at present,
ia honored and respected by all classes
of citizens in the lower end.
While those delegates were elected tc
vote for Mr.. McGroarty, and done so
they were at liberty to vote for who
they pleased for the other Offices ant

dates who came before the convention

township in the county had sent men t
the convention imbued with the sam
principles as the men of Foster, hoy
different would be the result.
In the nomination of Thomas Dullard
as the second candidate for County Com
missioner, the convention showed it
wisdow in giving place on the ticket t.

1t is proposed by the Republicans in
Congress to more than double the duty
on tin-plate, for the protection Of an in
FAINT industry which is not yet born.
The duties paid on tin-plate last year
amounted to 1854, 900. Under the
proposed duty the consumers of this
article of universal use would be com.
PEELED to pay at least SIC, ,O0O. 600 addi.
tionsl for a period of five years-for ii
is not pretended that the infant can be
born and made to produce the nearly
four hundred thousand tons of tin-plate
required in this country in less than this
time.
Mr.. Moody, one. of the new Senators
from South Dakota, said in debate that
his State "contains the most extensive
and probably the richest tin mines in
the world" and that not only is the tin
there, "but the iron for the tin-plate
and the coal out of which the coke was
to be made for the fuel to do the work
with" And yet with all this natural
wealth waiting to be developed, under
conditions, if truly stated, which no
other country can rival, Senator Moody
asks, and his party associates propose to
vote, a duty of 4 cents pound on
metallic tin and duty of 90 cents per
pound on tin-plate.
And for what? To set up 'busload
of big tin goods on wheels to rival, in
few years, the Carnegies and the other
monopolists who have grown suddenly
and enormously rich by levying tribute
upon the people of the United States
For this the Republican party would
tax every yard Of tin roof, every tin can,
tea kettle and dinner-pail in the country.
Far better and cheaper would it be to
pay the proposed duty as bounty to the

The Force Election bill is giving the
Republicans good deal of trouble at
Washington. 1t is proving a sort Of
boomerang. They have got to quarrel
ling among themselves as to what should
be done with the bill. 1t seems to be no
longer contest with the Democrats, but
one between two factions of the Republi.
can party. This is what might be called
retributive justice. Harrison is trying to
force the bill through Congress, and
Quay has taken the contract to defeat it.
The Democrats can afford to stand by
and look on this fight with cemposure.
1t is fun for the Democratic boys, though
it may be death to the Republican frogs.
No matter what the Republican majority
may do now, it is pretty sure that this
infamous measure will never go to the
President.

Mr.. PArr1soN, in his letter accepting
the nomination, declared his willing
ness to be judged by his past record,
and even a few Republican leaders
who have not been denounced by
their own party as traitors know that
they can not afford to talk about the
record Of the administration and the
party majority in Congress. So,
against the clear horizon, Robert E.
Pattison stands up to be judged. He
cuts a big figure of a man. His
pedestal Of deeds lifts him up. Bal.
lot reform and clean, honest govern
ment are what Pennsylvania wants,

triumph in that direction. Pittsb,trg

from the midst of the life they were In.
This has always been and always must
be. The wit and ingenuity of man can
not wholly avert, or indeed largely pre-
vent such happenings. The most he can
hope to do is to reduce the number and
the fatality Of those produced by his own
agencies-and this he does. Those
caused by the elements are, for the most
part, beyond the reach of his influence
and power to control.
One thing, however, he can do-he
can prepare himself, so far as his mum
dane and finite abilities allow, to meet
death whenever or wherever it may
come upon him. And in this matter OF
endeavoring to be prepared for death we
do not refer only or mainly to that prep
aration which comes from spiritual de-
voutness. but to that preparedness which
consists in having things in good order
and condition-in the discharge of duty
to the family-in provision made for the
care and support Of those left behind
in fair dealing between man and man
in the due performance of all obligations
to society-in so conducting ones self as
to leave the fewest causes for regret or
or painful memory with those
who survive; in having all ones affairs,
worldly and spiritual, in nearly about
the order they should be in if it should
come about that without warning we
should suddenly pass in the twinkling
Of an eye from life to death, as some Of
them did in the Susquehanna cyclone.
These are preparations for the sudden
death that may come at any time to any
man or woman-and they are prepara-
tions Of kind that do not enter into the
Of the average mind as
often as they should.-Phila. Ledger.

The Cyclones Awful Lesson.

No matter how often the preacher or
other moralist may admonish us "that
in the midst of life we are in death"--
that significant warning never comes
home to the understanding as it does
upon the happening Of one such incident
as destructive and killing cyclone
sweeping through prosperous and hap
py city and country.
In this instance people were going
about their affairs and their pleasures
some Of them in their own homes. busi.

A REMARKABLE illustration of the
growth of the tariff reform sentiment
in New England is furnished by the
action of the Prohibitionists of Con.
necticut in state convention. It is
understood that this party in Connec-
ticut, as elsewhere, draws its strength
from the membership of the Repub-
lican party. The state ticket of the
Prohibitionists this year is made up
of two Republicans and three farmers
who have always been third party
men; but the platform is distinctly
and emphatically in favor of tariff re-
form and denunciatory Of the present
Republican policy.

no uncertain tones regarding the

protective tariff" For that reason, if
for no other, he is entitled to the vote
of every business and workingman in
