The waistband Issue in Pennsylvania.

The drift OF Democratic sentiment In
Pennsylvania IL Enthusiastically toward ex-
Senator WALLACE who is running as Dem
ocrat, and not toward Ex-Governor PATTI
son, who figures in the present canvass rs
the wooden idol OF the Mugwumps and the
puppet Of BILL SCOTT.
1t has generally been proclaimed by Mr..
PATTIsoN's supporters that while Mr.. WALL
LACE might he stronger withthe Democracy
OF the State outside of Philadelphia, the
BILL SCOTT candidate had dead sure thing
with the city Democrats, and on that account
was bound to win in the Convention.
The situation has been changed very sud-
denly by the conversion to Mr. WALLACE
of three Of the most important local Demo-
cratic leaders in Philadelphia: JosEPHs,
PATTERSON, and MCGOWAN. DISTINGUISHED
observers regard this as meaning that a
clear majority, If not two-thlrds majority,
of the Philadelphia delegates will go to
Scranton to vote for WALLACE. The odds
are now strong as against MIR. SCOTT and
the candidate Of his and another mans self
ish ambition.
Meanwhile down in York county, our es-
teemed and Constitutional friend, Mr.
CHAUNCEY FORWARD BLACK, ID picking uD

vision for a rainy day at Scranton.
1t is an interesting fight in Pennsylvania
on many accounts, but particularly 30 be-
cause one of th9two leading candidates for
tho nomination represents the genuine, old
fashioned Democracy that Is going TO win In
the Presidential contest OF 1892, while the
other candidate Is the peculiar favoritc OF a
school of so-callcd Democracy that is en-
braced within the circumference OF single
capucious waistband.
