other stores. Any business that keeps

other business. We always supposed the
saloons were closed on Sundays. We sup
posed so from the way our constables
swore. If these places are not closed they
should be, but the closing should be done
by the officers of the law and not by the
preachers.
Wilkes Barre Times: There may be
grey-headed laws to justify the arrest and
punishment Of druggists for selling soda
water and bakers for delivering bread
upon Sunday, but the wisdom of the pro-
ceeding is doubted by many whose fever-

sscReTivs SENATOR HARRIS.
Mem York Recordur.


lsham Harris Is the mystery Of the SEN
ate. Nobody knows how old he is and the
chances are that nobody ever will. he
was the confederate war governor OF Ten
nessee, and when he abandoned the cap
ital and went into the field there was a
snug little sum OF Sl,aO00O0 in the state
treasury. 1t was all IN gold, and the
doughty governor was determined that the
federal usurpers should not reap the
usufruct. When the federal officials came
!. in they found an .empty treasury. Three
years later, when the war was over, Harris
turned up dramatically one day and
handed over every cent Of the missing
fund. He had kept it safely somewhere
moil. Nobody knew whether he had car
ried it around with him or whether he
had buried it in the ground or locked 1t
up in some secret vault. Nobody dared
ask him, he never vouchsafed an explana-
tion, and he has kept Tennesseeans guess
ing on to this day.

False Distinctions.

We cannot agree with the idea that
it would be undignified in an ex-gover-
nor of Pennsylvania to enter the ad'
visory cabinet of one of his successors.
We do not know that such a con-
tingency is possible; but If it were, it
would, other circumstances being equal,
be to our way of thinking graceful
and gracious thing to do. There is too
much of falsity about the political
distinctions that needless opinion
is inclined to build up. The idea that
because man has been governor he
must afterward spurn n hi m
any suggestion of less exalted Office is
calculated to destroy real democracy
and rapidly engender an aristocracy,
We do not at this moment have at
hand record Of all the presidents who,
after leaving the executive mansion at
Washington, went gladly back to pri-
vate citizenship, willing therein to
serve az before, whether left In the
ranks or made the recipients of minor
local trusts But we do know that
among this number were some Of the
purest and simplest patriots Of whom
our history makes record. Washing
ton did this, and Jefferson, too. Lin
coin would have done it had his life
been spared Rutherford B. Hayes
that much maligned man, carried back
to Fremont the same quiet simplicity
that characterized his occupancy Of
the white house, and was far too manly
TO view in any civic function. however
humble, thing less creditable than
the prompt acceptance Of call to
duty.
1t has been intimated in certain pol.
itical gossip that General Beaver might
thus be invited to share the official
condolences Of his frienl, partner and
fellow townsman, General Hastings,
when the latter succeeds to the posi-
ton that the former once held, This
may be purely a rumor; and it might
occur that although the report were
true, the ex-governor could not so ad.
just his personal affairs as to make
possible an acceptance. Iuto the i'm
mediate discussion of these details it
would be impertinent to enter. With
reference, however. to the general
propriety of such an arrangement, ws
must confess that we perceive no reas
ouable room for doubts.

COMPULSORY ARBITRATION will not b.

it must come. The compulsion will

THE TROUBLE now is that works Of
necessity or charity" which are per-
mitted by the Sunday law. are con-
strued by the light of personal inclina-

intelligent and humane sentiment. No
one proposes to veto real necessities
nor real mercies on Sundays, It's the
plainly spurious ones that cause offence

The Central Point,

1t seems to require much reiteration
to get the real point in this Sunday
observance movement squarely and
fairly before the public. The esteemed
Wilkes Barre Times appears to think
that because certain law is 'grey
headed" it may therefore be violated
with impunity by one set of business
men provided it be obeyed by another.
1t does not explain how the latter class
can be prosecuted with clear con.
science while the former class are per.
mitted to do as they please.
A laws age is scarcely material in
view of the fact that the law still
stands 1t is proper, at any time, to
propose the laws amendment or re-
peal. We are not certain that it is the
best law that could be put on the stat
ute books. But while it remains the
deliberately chosen will OF the major
ity of the people Of Pennsylvania, SO
decreed by their legislature and 80 sus.
tained by their courts, it should bo
obeyel; and if not obeyed Voluntarily.
it should be enforced
The assertion has been made that
this movement to enforce law is spas
modic and will soon blow over, That
depends. 1t will sutside when the law
is reasonably obeyed; 1t will not sub
side sooner. The best interests of the
entire community coincide with its
successful consummation. Errors may
be made and enmities created; but the
animatng force that moves for law
enforcement dare not rest from it's
labors until a substantial victory shall
have been achieved, not merely in
spots. but all along the line.

own products. In other words, the plan
is the Republican doctrine of reciprocity
applied to silver.
There is, as Representative John Dal-

this idea. Like the reciprocity idea OF
Mr.. Blaine, of which it is logical out.
growth. it consists of revivification
of old principles so as to make them
applicable to new conditions. Mr..
Dalzell pertinently recalls the fact that
Mr. Jefferson, when he was secretary
of state in 1893, was called upon by
congress- to report the nature and ex-
tent Of the privileges and restrictions
of the commercial intercourse of the
United States with foreign nations and
the measures which he should think
proper to be adopted for the improve.
ment of the commerce and navigation
Of the same. Mr.. Jefferson made a
very elaborate report in which he rec

agree with those nations that discrim.

duties, upon their products as would
bring them TO terms That is exactly

But the fact is not to be concealed that
when.this is said great complication
arises as to how the deFired end is to
be attained, The repeal of the silver
purchase clause left the original dill
emma untouched. With silver steadily

let the consequences be what they
might And, unless we are singularly
deficient in foresight, his good Yankee
judgment has enabled him to grasp
hold of a solution which unites senti-
mental attraCtiyoness with practical
availability and virile force.
