THE pFNNSYLTANIA DISASTER.

The food at Johnstown in 1889 furnished
n standard of disaster which has made later
accidents seem small by comparison. Yet inc
catastrophe that has just overtaken the Penn
sylvania oil regions is unique in n long record
of calamitous yisitations. That so few lives
have been sacrificed seems little short of
miracle. The fiery food that swept down the
Oil Creek Valley on Sunday morning, through
a thickly settled district, carried with 1t all
the elements of unparalleled horror; but, al
though the death troll is unfortunately long
one and the property loss was heavy, no com
munity was Obliteratcd or its site extIngulshed.
The immediate cause of the disaster was
n parently the bursting of dam at Tltusyille !;
though this is not altogether clear. 1t seems
Incredible that. with the memory of the Cone
mauch flood behind them, Pennsylvania peo-
ple of all others, should tolerate the neigh
borhood of insecure water-barrlers, whose sud
den rupture might at any moment over"heim
them with death and desolation. The con-
slant rains that for many weeks have deluged
the country conveyed warning that was hap
nily not UNDECIDED and to the fortunate cir
cumstance that they were watching the flood
when an engine spark ignited leaking gaso-
~
flame. hundreds of the inhabitants of Oil City
undoubtedly owe their lives. At Titusvlle
eighteen miles to the north, similar fire caused
by the dislodging of oiltanks on the river
bank had already burned several blocks OF
houses, and the fact that the bridges between
the two cities were all consumed shows how
the floating blaze was fed.

inevitable dangers. and previous experience

THE REPUBLICAN CONTENTION

The Republican National Convention meets
at noon to-day to discharge a delicate and mo-
mentouS trust. Recent events have compll-
Gated the situation and produced unwontcd ex-
element The political atmosphere at Mime
apolis and all over the country is full of cleo
tricity but it is not the less healthful because
it is exhilaratng. With the beginning of bnsi-
ness the delegates who have been indulging
the pleasures of speculation will settle down
to perform their task with sagacity and with
entire devotion to the best interests OF the
millions hom they represent That is the
way of the Republican party and there Will be
no departure from it this year.
The most conspicuous fact at the present
moment is that it is worth while to be the
Republican candidate for the Presidency IN
1892. The party is not about 10 confer upon
one of its members the Onerous privilege OF
running to a defeat in November. However
partisans may differ they are agreed that this
is Republican year. The nominee OF the
Minneapolis Convention will be the next Presi-
dent of the United States. The party has
earned the right to remain in control of the
Government. The only hope that Democrats
ever have of winning political contest Is IN
escaping from their record, and deceving
majority of voters The reliance of Repub-
licans is in appealing to the record. And this
year they have a remarkably convincing record
TO appeal to. The Administration which they
put in power to carry out their will has made
another Republican victory the most sure and
welcome prospect of the time. On that point
there is no doubt or dispute at Minneapolis.
The fact and its significance are gratefully
recognized by the supporters of every can
didate.
1t is the duty of the representatives of the
party to make the most of this immense adj
vantage, and this is the spirit in which, we are
confident, they will undertake their task. There
is ample room in Republican Convention for
earnest discussion and for eager and deter
mined rivalry, but there is no room for bitter
ness or resentment or for the selfish subordina
ton of cause to an individual. Republican
delegates are accustomed to remember that it
is the welfare of the party and not of any can
didate which has been committed 20 their care,
and that the welfare of the party is worthy OF
their devotion only because it comedies with
the welfare of the country. All that can be
asked of the delegates at Minneapolis is that
they should keep this principle in constant
view and act upon it. The preliminary con-
test has ended without any clear forecast of
the result, but if the true spirit of Repub-
licansm pervades and inspires the convention
it can make no mistake.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1892-06-07
THROW NO BRICKS.

The motto which is said to have been tcc-
graphed from Washington to delegates at Min
neapolis, " Stand firm, but throw no bricks is
full of wisdom. Neither President Harrison
nor ex-Secretary Blaine would ever thank any
friend however warm-hcarted and earnest for
uttering bitter words which should make his
nomination unwise or dangerous. With cor
dial effort by the whole party for its principles
and it's splendid cause, either of several worthy
candidates can be elected this year. But he
who starts pickering and harshness of speech
in such q case may easily make the election OF
his own especial favorite doubtful. The best
friend of either candidate this year is he who
deals fairly with the honorable reputation, the
admirable services, and the proved merits and
strength of others whose claim is also dear to
the Republican party and to good citizens Of
both parties.
The eXtravagance so often heard around
conventions might be the more wisely re-
strained in this case, because great proper
ton of Republicans throughout the country
have become accustomed to regard the Pres
ident and the Secretary of State as asso-
cated and sharing in the work of highly
successful Administration. 1t would not help
either should his friends claim on his behalf
full credit for all that has been well done. for
the people would resent and repel such a claim.
Among the shrewdest and most experienced
leaders of the party there are some who arc
perfectly convinced that one candidate has
much the greater strength with the people and
could be the more surely elected But other
leaders, also eminent for ability and great ex-
pericnce, believe just the same of another can
didate. Where there is such a division OF
opinion among those who are most competent
to Judge, dogmatic certainty of assertion is
scarcely in place, for without excess of modesty
any man may admit that his impressions might
be in error about part of sixty millions of
people.
The case is one that calls for cool and care
full judgment, for generous recognition of the
merits of all Republican candidates, and par
ticularly for avoidance of those sayings that
tend to make united efforts difficult after the
nomination. If there should be candidates
whose supporters at any stage could not or
would not meet the emergency in this spirit, a
level-headcd convention might find itself COM
PEELED to set them aside. in order to insure a
nomination that would command the full and
hearty support OF Republican voters, and thus
do full justice to Republican principles Where
a convention is impressed with sense of its
responsibility and duty in that regard, indi-
viduals of ungenerous spirit and fiery tongue
