TREASONOUS TALK.

IL there Is such a thing as treason against
the State, there cannot be much question
that the proceedings of the Homestead
COMMITTEE" come under that head.-PhilG-
delp'sia Times
If the acts committed by the strikers at
Homestead did not constitute insurrection
and rebellion against the peace and welfare
of the State. it would be difficult to say what
would.-Neao York Evening Post
EVERY man in Pennsylvania who possesses
property, or is interested In any degree in
the maintenance of the peace and dignity Of
the State, will feel the more secure by rea-
son of this action. 1t is an announcement
that the State is still under the domain of
Philadelphia Press.
UNDOUBTEDLY some things were done with
a high hand at Homestead. The Carnegie
managers may find it difficult, however, to
convince jury that there was also high
treason, as charged in the warrants issued
yesterday against the Advisory Board
Ne1o York Evsn,ng World
THE arrest of the leaders OF the Homestead
strikers for treason comes very near tho
line of judicial persecution. Pennsylvania
has laws, severe enough as every one knows,
for the punishment of riot and murder,
which, If any laws at all, ought to reach the
leaders of the Homestead strike II they have
.beep guilty Of crime. -dsdtonapolS Ssstjsss

FRANK CoOLEYs DEATH.

4 career of laWleSsneSS and crime was
appropriately terminated by the shooting
Of Frank Cooley at his fathers house in
Tue southern part of Fayette county last
evening. This outlaw, with his following
IF thieves and bullies, had successfully
deigd the rather lax enforcement of the
law in that county for a long time. But
The end was bound TO come; and since it is
low evident that the mountain freebooterS
could not be put down in any other way
than by being killed while resisting the
law it Is not TO be regretted.
Indeed. the only point of criticism is
that the killing in the legal form in which
il occurred was not done much sooner.
j. does not seem from the circumstances
,haJ it required any very great eXpendi-
JHre Of energy to find Cooley. His law
lg-snrss and OuUiawry have been beyond
dispute for many years. Ii was the duty
U1 .ha officers Of the law to have pursued
him and his associates so necessarily and
with such force that he would have
been either appTehended or shot
much earlier in his career of free6ooting.
However, the fact that his career is
brought to q bloody and sudden end
a.gugs a good deal for the delay and
laNity. It is TO be hoped that the example
WI. not be lost on others who may have
been attracted By the temporary success of
t.. outlaw in holding the law at bay
SLOW though the law may seem in its
Gei9u, and although it may be burdened
t- aeiieiency or malfeasance, the neces-
sary result Of defying it must be either the
iHl cu0n Of its penalties or such death
as Cooley met
That the warning may be complete no
pains should be spared in hunting down
and stamping out the rest of the gang. 1t
Is time to demonstrate beyond the posi-
bJity Of a doubt that the law is supreme
throughout the length and breadth OF Penn
srlVgIlia.

ORGANIC EXIGENCIES.

The exigencies of the New York Eoen-
INC Post in an organic character must be
exceedingly trying. In one issue last week
it took occasion to argue against the prop
osition to run an independent municipal
ticket in New York "because it would
further familiarize the New York public
with the helplesSness of the respectable
element in the voting population" AS
this amounts to advice that the respect
able element shall make complete sur
render for fear its weakness should be
discovered it should be Hibernian enough
to suit Tammany and humiliating enough
to appease the spirit of machine politics
for all the offenses of once independent
journal
Nevertheless that is not so decidedly
display of party subserviency as the resort
of the Post to square Misrepresentation in
the following sentence, from an article on
the currency question:
The Democratic platform, in suggesting
return to a State bank currency under
proper safeguards, removes the practical OBJ
lection which many have felt regarding the
repeal of the silver law, and as conse-
Quence of such repeal the possibility of a
checked and contracted volume of money,
Everyone who has read the Democratic
platform knows that it does not propose
any safeguards whatever for return to a
State bank currency. 1t simply calls for
the unconditional repeal of the prohibitory
10 per cent tax on State bank circulation,
thus throwing open the gates to whatever
vagaries in that direction the "A different
Legislatures choose to permit.
If it were not for this we might charita-
bly, hope that the Posts further remark
about the connection of this question with
that Of the silver issue was due to ignor-
ance So long as there are millions of sill
yer dollars stacked up in the Treasury the
silver question has nothing to do with the
volume of circulation; it is question of
standard. The State bank notes would
not settle the standard question. On the
other hand those issues which maintained
relations with the standard would be re-
deemed in whatever coin should be au-
thorized as a legal tender; and vast num-
Der of them would be something beside
which even sixty cent dollar would be
joy forever.
The only relation between the silver and
the banknote questions is that free coin
age is sound and conservative finance be-
side the proposition of the Democratic
platform. The exigencies of party work
are powerfully illustrated when a paper
that once at least had the virtue of intelli-
gence is compelled to swear to all the
Democratic vagaries of Calhounism and
wildcat banknotes to stay up the cause of
its candidate.

NEXT suarNEE,s DANGER.

While there has been a little too much
prOmptness in jumping to the conclusion
that ali danger from cholera Is over, it is
time to recognize that for the present the
threat is removed. The disease has prac-
ticaiiy been stamped out among the quar-
antiRed people in New York bay The
spread OF the infection to the shore has
been prevented. The cool weather Of Oc-
tober is unfavorable TO the development
if it should again pass the quarantine bar
rierS. I. is permissible to conclude that
there is little danger of the disease devel-
Oping in this country during the present
year.
But that does not show that it is right to
relax all precautions for the future. On
the contrary, the danger of its appearance
next wear has from the first been the most
prooa5ie peril We know that in various
parts OF Europe the infection exists. Ex-
periencc his shown that it can lie dormant
11r "a winter and reappear in the spring,
The possibility that the germs of the DIS
ease may reach this country during the
winter or early next year is one against
which ali possible precautions should be
employed
The success which has attended the
work Of precaution and sanitation, stimu-
lated by the threat Of the epidemic, en-
forces the wisdom of continuing these
Safy guards in full force. The danger for
next year is not so immediate. as that
which has just passed by, but it is of
greater magnitude. If the epidemic
should get start early in the summer its
rav4ges would naturally be far greater
than if it had appeared in September
We have seen that it is possible to arrest
the disease at our doors by strict quaran-
tine. We have learned the value OF thor
ouch sanitation of all cities, not alone as a
safeguard against cholera but for the dim
mutton of all filth diseases. With these
lessons the work should continue. The
str.c.esy watch for any possibility of infec-
ti-a should be kept up atall ports. Every
community in the country should adopt
The most thorough regulations for securing
perfect cleanliness. By such means the
great object Of guarding the public health

success IN fighting off cholera this fall lax

A SOFT SNAP BROKEN UP.
Street Car Conductors Find Way to Max
More Money! Than the Companv

Street Car Conductors Find a Way to Make
More Money Than the Company.
CINCINNATI, Oct. 2.-For six weeks the
South Coving ton and Cincinnati Street Rail-
way Company has had a spotter at work on
its road to ascertain why the receipts Of the
company have shown such a discrepancy as
compared with the number of passengers
carried. The leak was exposed yesterday,
when the detective made his report. The
conductors in the employ of the company
have been making more money, on q salary
of $l2 q week, than the company has been
able to with an immense outlay of capital:
Their plan was an ingenious one. When q
conductor received O ticket for a fare he
would return an old punched ticket at the
office. The unpunched tickets received by
the conductors from passengers were sold
the cash. The tickets cost them just cents
fare, thus making So on every 100 passengers.
gers day and more during exceptional
days. The punched tickets were obtained
by fireman, to whom was entrusted the
work OF burning them up He sold them to
the conductors for So hundred. The
punched ticket plan OF robbing was an ex-
tremely clever one. 1t would be almost inn
possible for 'spotter" to detect any con-
ductor in it. The conductor could ring and
register every time he received ticket. All
he had to do was to watch the ticket register
and mark separate slip each trip, so that
he would know the exact number of tickets
he had to account for.

light than that of natural justice. The
course of most of the transatlantic COM
panies in conducting the transportation OF
immigrants has not been such as to estab-
lish any claim to public sympathy. They
have been free in stimulating the most un-
desirable classes of immigration, in aiding
the violation of our laws, and in secreting
the introduction of infection. The pres
ent case is due to their readiness to make
the profit of the business outweigh consid-
erations of health and safety. If they had
entertained any care against the spread of
infection they would have stopped the
transportation of immigrants from infected
parts before the quarantine left these
thousands of steerage passengers on their
hands
If the steamship companies have been
caught by their own methods in losing
contract they should pay up the loss and
resolve to be somewhat wiser the next
firOa

THE PLACATED POLITICIANS.

The last week or two has lifted the load
that has burdened the political situation
since the date of the conventions. While
the country was laboring under the doubt
whether Hill was still Democrat and
Platt still a Republican the campaign
could not well go on. With this cloud of
uncertainty darkening the political atmos-
phere the marching club delighted not the
heart of the politician and the art of eluci-
dating economic issues by torchlight pro-
cessionS was left to the small boy who col
lectively invades the front yard of the citi-
zen and bones him for cash to help US out.
Now, however, the cloud is lifted. Both
those eminent New York politicians have
testified to their placation. Hill has called
renewed attention to the fact that he is
'tstill a Democrat" and Platt has certified
to the world that he remains a Republi-
can. The organs on their respective sides
have leaped for joy, and the organs OPP
posed have virulently quoted the express
sions of disaffection indulged in by each
in their day of discomfort But it is settled
beyond the possibility of dispute that Hill
and Platt are in their places. Therefore
the campaign can go on.
With due recognition of this re-estab-
lishment of serenity in the partisan skies,
the mind cannot refrain from heterodox
speculation. Suppose that Hill and Platt
had not come down to their fodder. Let
us imagine, indeed, that the two gods of
the machine had repeated the act of Full
Private James and Major General John,
by letting Hill be protempore Republican
and Platt becoming a Democrat for the
purposes of this campaign. What would
the material difference have been? Could
not the people have voted and the politi-
clans claimed everything, until the returns
were in, with the same zest? 1t is posi-
BILE that the drum major might have strut
ted less multitudinously and the torch
light east its glare less widely; but we
think that the American. people might
have managed to select President with
Hill and Platt sulking in their tents.
Indeed, the heretical mind may go so far
as to inquire if the New York political
managers have not skillfully timed their
alienation and their placation with more
care for the interests of Hill and Platt
than for those of their respective parties.

AN INTERNATIONAL INVESTIGATION.

A well-founded call for an investigation
has been made by the German papers as a
consequence of the dispute of United
States Consul Burke and the Hamburg Of
ficials over the responsibility for issuing
clean bills of health to infected steamers
The remark of one of them, that either
Burke should be removed from his post or
the Hamburgers prevented from again in
fiicting such danger on the health of the
world, is entirely to the point.
1t will be with the approval of this
nation that such an investigation should
be made searching and without favor 1t
is possible that Burke may come out of it
with little credit; but it is hard to see how
the Hamburg admi nistration can escape
with vindication. The entire course of
that city until the matter became too
great for concealment was based on the
plan of serving Hamburg's monetary in
terests, no matter what danger of epidemic
was turned loose On the world at large.
If one of the results of the investiga-
ton should be that Hamburg loses her in
dependence and comes under imperial
rule it will only emphasize the stupidity
of her course in dealing with the early
stages of the disease.

DIXON ON RACE TRACKS.
The New York Preacher Thinks They
Should Go as Lotteries Have Gone.

The New York Preacher Thinks They
Should Go as Lotteries Have Gone.
NEW YORK, Oct. 2.-Before his regular SER
mon to-day, Rev. Thomas Dixon, Jr., deliv-
cred another of his characteristic talks. To
day his subject was the Garfield Race Track,
of which he said in part:
"Garfield Park in Chicago has for years
openly defied the moral sentiment of the
nation. 1t has been an open slaughter pen,
in which manhood, honor, decency, truth
and virtue were daily butchered. 1t was the
favorite resort of the most desperate classes
of the scum world.
1.-THE people of Chicago were recently
shocked at the foul murder OF two police
men by desperate gambler on these
grounds; and if the people of Chicago toler-
ate such a he'll hole in their midst, wet with
the blood of the officers of the law. they
should take down their statue in Haymarket
square and confess that civic order has
failed after all. Garfield track is typical of
the race track OF to-day The whole dirty
business is of the same piece. The con-
science of this nation has outgrown it. The
race track must go as the lottery has gone.
The plain fact is that the lottery is small
evil compared with the races"

No SYMPATHY FOR THEM.

Ngl many tears VIII be shed on this side
OF the Atlantic over the information that
the steamship companies are in quan-
dtry as TO what they shall do with the
crowds Of immigrants left on their hands
through the restriction on immigration
imposed by the quarantine of this country.
They have taken charge of some thouS-
ands OF these people under contract to
provide maintenance for them until they
are landed in the United States This
Government having in self-defense inter-
posed checks to the food of immigration,
the steamship companies cannot land
their passengers here. Offers have been
made to the immigrants TO take them back
20 their starting point, which were natur-
ally declined. Attempts have been made
to throw the care of the Immigrants on
tie public charities in the ports where
they are waiting; but this has no less
justifa5ly been declined by the authorl-
lis. The steamship companies are there
fore somewhat pathetically asking what
they shall do.
The only answer is that they must devote
some part of the profits heretofore made In
transporting immigrants to the lodging
and feeding of those now on their hands
until such time as the United States can
safely admit them. That is the contract
which they have made, and if they lose
Jneyin carrying it out theyh' ne to
