THE CHICAGO PLAN,

The Chicagoans who are pressing the
Worlds Fair appropriation are in need of
little advice as to the value Of slight
admiXture of modesty in their demands.
One of them, in response to the intima-
ton that Congress might be favorably dis
posed to furnish the large sum asked for
as a loan, declared that it would be re-
fused in that form, as to borrow from the
Government "would take away the ma
tional character of the Exposition"
This is an exhibition of Chicago cheek
which in itself calls for preservation as
one of the unique results of the discovery
of America. The Philadelphia Centen-
nial was aided by the Government with
loan which never damaged the national
character of that enterprise. 1t is true
that Philadelphia tried to beg out of re-
paying the money; but that is a liberty of
which, by the record already made, we
can expect Chicago to avail herself
of to the utmost At present the atti-
tude of the Chicago people toward the
national treasury is based on the conviction
that the more unbounded their demands
on the national funds the larger percent
age they are likely to realize.
1t is matter of national credit that the
Exposition must be carried through to sue
cess. But the course of the Chicago peo-
pie in that will not increase the credit of
that city.

THE MoDUs RATIFIED,

In response to the Presidents request
the Senate has achieved a rapidity of
action which is worthy of more frequent
adoption. The ratification of the Con-
vention arranging modus vivendi for
Bering Sea, pending the arbitration of
matters under discussion between Amer
lea and England, was the only course to
be followed. The speed with which it
was accomplished is highly satisfactory.
As to the articles containedin the treaty,
whereby either party agrees to compen-
safe the other for losses according to the
verdict of the arbitrators, they are simply
in keeping with the principle implied in
submitting the matter to arbitration at
all. The disputants who consent to have
their claims adjudged cannot well shirk
the responsibility for losses involved by
the enforcement of such claims if the ar
bitrators decide against them. The whole
matter may now be regarded as out of
the hands of diplomatists and under the
control of the arbitrauors. 1t is to be
hoped that the latter will be able to
emulate the rate of speed adopted by the
United States Senate.

THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.

The Republican Convention to-day bids
fair to be characterized with as positive a
degree of harmony as the Democratic Con-
vention was with the opposite quality.
The Republican harmony, it is to be feared,
will be rather of the machine order, and
will in that respect compare unfavorably
with the vigor of the Democratic minor
ity's physical protests against the slate;
but it will also be less destructive of the
order of the convention and of the men,
bers' habiliments.
The only contest of any decided magni-
tude is over the nomination for Supreme
Judge. The supporters of Judge Ewing
from this county are making vigorous
effort to secure his nomination, and at the
opening of the convention there seems to
be fair prospect of winning the fight.
The Judges unimpeachable record and
vigorous independence make him an ideal
candidate for that lofty position, and it is
as creditable to Allegheny to be in the
field with such a name as it will be to the
party at large to take him as the candi-
date for the leading State position in the
coming campaign.
One example set by the Democratic
Convention should be carefully avoided by
the Republican body. That is the rule
that the delegates to the National Conven-
ton shall vote as unit. The unit rule
has always been a method of machine
politics, and in the Republican National
Convention its enforcement over the dele
cation of this State could only be needed
for questionable purposes. The State
Convention should steer clear of any such
mistake

FREEDOM OF CONTRACT.

A recent decision of the Illinois
Supreme Court declares the ''truck law
of that State to be unconstitutional. This
name is an equivalent for the :t'store
order" law of this State. . The decision is
on the same basis as the similar decision
of our own Supreme Court, namely, that
it is an interference with the freedom OF
contract The basis Of the Illinois ruling
is that it is class legislation abrogating the
right of contract. Says the Court: eff
there is capacity to contract for the pay
ment of wages in money, why is there not
capacity to contract for their payment in
something else?"
This is the authoritative judicial view;
and yet, with due Difference to the ele-
waited tribunals declaring it, it is possible
to suggest that they have not taken in the
whole range of the question. The right
of declaring invalid contracts against pub
lie policy is an old one at common law,
and only little less indisputable is the
principle that the first essential of valid
contract is its mutuaIity. Apart from the
fact that in these contracts the advantage
is all on one side, if the Legislature finds
that the result OF contracts Tor payment OF
wages in merchandise is to impoverish
labor, why has not the Legislature the
right to declare such contracts contrary to
public policy? The courts seem to deny
that power to the lawmakers simply be-
cause the injurious nature of these con-
tracts has not heretofore been recognized,
which is a rather short-sighted effort of
reasoning on the judicial part.
Nevertheless, the Illinois decision con-
veys suggestion to the sufferers from the
store order system. 1t thinks that con-
tract to pay in goods is just as competent
as a contract to pay in money. Very well.
A contract to pay in money sets forth that
in return for so much labor a stated
amount and quality of money is to be
paid. Let the la5orer, when he is next
called upon to agree to take pay in goods
stipulate the amount and quality of goods,
he is to receive tor a stated amount of

JINGo CHARACTERISTICS.

The similarity of the characteristics of
the Jingo element on both sides of the
ocean is shown by the remarks of some
Tory organs on the settlement of the dis
pute between the United States and Italy.
The London Times and Daily Graphic af-
feet to see in it "a genuine diplomatic tri-
umph'' for Italy and "Blaine's latest sur
render" The fact is that the payment of
sum for the pecuniary relief of the fami-
lies of Italian subjects killed at New Or
leans was distinctly conceded in Mr..
Blaine's communications with the Italian
Minister last April. There were some
phases of the Italian dispute-more es-
pecially the attempts of our own Jmgoes
to fan the war spirit-which were improp-
er and inconsistent But the payment of
the very small sum which settles it was
entirely in accordance with the attitude of
the State Department from the first.
On the same day in which these COM
ments of the English Jingoes were pub
lished, on this side an organ of
the American Jingo stripe IN refer
ring to our relations with Chile alluded to
the final satisfactory and complete apology
of Chile 1t showed the same inability as
its English prototypes to state the facts
fairly. 1t happens to be that the express
sions of regret for the Valparaiso riot, the
dsavowal of the acts of the rioters, and
the assurances of efforts to punish the
leaders, contained in the so-called ''com-
plete apology" were repetitions of what
had been conveyed to our Government in
the Chilean communications long before
the President sent that famous message
TO Congress. All of which shows that
while the skies may be changed the char
acteristics of the Jingo mind are just the
same, no matter on which side of the
ocean he may be found.

the Pittsburg postofice, after July l, is to
be entered in the first-class postoff1ce grade,

him to demand that the goods shall be
rated at wholesale prices. This will make
the issue very clear. We could hardly
imagine a strike that would command
more universal public sympathy than one
to insist on wages being paid either in
money or stipulated amount of goods at
wholesale prices.

STUBBORN Facts "h1ch Its Enemies VIII
First Have to Combat Effectively.
Cleveland Leader.
Republican "sham reciprocity" which has
been denounced by Democratic orators in
and out of Congress, is bound to bear rich
fruit in spite OF lying Bourbon free traders.
Between the lst of January and the 1st of
March, 1891, the imports of flour at Havana,
Cuba, amounted to 620Cs bags, 6,753 bags of
which came from the United States and
56255 from Europe. Between January ],
1892, when the reciprocity treaty went into
effect. and the 1st of March. 1892, the imports
were SS, sos bags. all but l60 bags of which
came from the United States.
This means an increase of about ], 400 per
cent for us. and decrease of nearly 100 per
cent for Europe. In fact. European flour
has almost been driven from the Cuban mar
ket by the increased shipments from the
United States. These are stubborn facts,
and the Democratic enemies of reciprocity
will have hard work to convince the 1arm-
ers Of America that it is a fraud or a sham.
Reciprocity will grow as an issue in the
coming campaign, and the Republicans will
make no mistake If they keep 1t at the front.
