MR.. WILSON'S LONDON SPEECH
Trom the phlladelphia Press.

FROM the Gnllauelpnld l'TeSS'
The speech of Hon. William L. Wilson
at the banquet given in his honor by the
London chamber of commerce has natur-
ally excited universal interest and been
the theme of universal comment. Mr.
Wilson spoke with careful preparation
That he honestly meant to make plain
statement" is further demonstrated by
the following words which, while only the
simple truth, constitute IL confession as
astonishing as il Is frank:
THE TARIFF REFORMERS HAVE
BEEN TEARING DOWN THE FENCES
WHICH THE PROTECTIONISTS HAD
PUT UP TO KEEP GREAT BRITAIN
OFT Or AMERICA.
True, indeed.-tearing down the protec-
ton fences in order to let the British
manufacturers take possession OF the
American market! The whole intent and
result honestly admitted TO the British
audience. But let us be altogether just
to Mr.. Wilson. To this extraordinary
confession he added the following state
ment as an explanations:
But we have done so in order to COM
pete with you and other nations.
That Is, We have torn down our protec-
tive fences and given up our American
market TO the British in the hope of COM
peting with them In foreign countries,
Like the silly dog that dropped the sub
stance of the meat for the shadow in the
water. We have dropped our control of the
greatest and best of all markets in the
hope of catching the shadow of a foreign
trade which, If We had all there is in all
the world, would be less than one-twen-
teth as much. And what is no less re-
markable, Mr. Wilson proposes to win
that foreign trade by overthrowlng the
one effectual means of securing IL in over
throwing and abrogating all reciprocity

Where Are His Priuc;plesp

The following is the full text of the
circular which is being distributed in
the Fourth legislative district by the
Liquor Dealers association of Carbon
dale, over the signature of John F..
Mcdonald, of Carbondaie It's secretary:
After due and careful consideration
of both candidates for the office of
representative for this district. 1t has
been decided to be for the best interests
of the liquor dealers to support the can
didacy of Michael II. Burke, of Car
bondale, because he is an advocate of
low license, and supported it at the
last session of the legislature. 1t is to
our interests to see that he receives the
support of every person engaged in the
liquor business in this district, regard
less of whichever party we may have
been in the habit of voting with. We
want the license reduced. Mr.. Burke
is for low license. We know 1t because
he has advocated it in his public
speeches, and we hereby ask you to do
all you can for his election. When in
the interest of low license, visited the
state capitol during the last session of
the legislature as the representative Of

the Liquor Dealers association of this
city, | found Representative Burke to
have great influence there on that qucs-
ton, and il We support and elect him
by our influence, we know he can be
relied upon to help reduce the high
license We now have to pay. Every
man in the business knows the license
is too high, We want it reduced. Mr.
Burke voted to reduce it at the
last session. and will again. This cir
cular is sent to you coniidentially, and
you are coniidentially and earnestly re-
quested to do all you can for the cleo
ton Of Michael T. Burke to be our next
representative. BY doing SO you Will
be supporting your own interests and
the interests Of all who are engaged in
the liquor business
This Is peculiar Endorsement to
come To u man who has for more than
twenty years posed as the special cham
pion of temperance reform in the upper
end of fLackawanna county: but it is of Il
piece with his double dealing on the
l'arr free text book bill, the evidence
of which is yet ringing in his constitu-
ents' ears. We do not wonder that the
liquor dealers of Carbondale should try
to re-elect Burke, seeing that he is not
burdened with scruples; we are merely
staggered at the effrontery of man
who can. without blushing, play such
desperate tricks as these with his own
conscience.

HAD A FAIR CHANCE.
From the Commercial Advertiser.

From the Commercial Advertiser.
The Democratic party with an over
whelming majority In the house Of repre-
sentatives and a small majority In the
senate, aided by the Populists, has had
ample opportunity to keep faith with the
people. 1t shouted itself hoarse to turn
out the Republican ''rascals and give the
honest" Democrats chance. They
have had their chance but ID availed them
nothing. Instead of stepping boldly for
ward TO maintain their pledges and retain
the confidence that was plte eed In them by
the people they preferred rather TO be
true to the doctrines of Democratic his
tory-falsus In uno. falsu In omnibus.
The importance of ropting out every
vestige of Democratic power Is the para
mount question OF the fay. 1t involves
not merely a local or u State issue, but n
national issue. The advancement and
prosperity Of the United States are. at
stake The uprightnesf of our Republi-
can institutions is involved. The honor
and integrity of the american people are
concerned in this direct issue of Repub-
lican or IL Democratic administration.
because an Endorsement Of the latter
will imply tacit agreement on the part
of the people to thS continuance of ma
tional policy OF deception and broken
promises, making 5he people equally gull
ty with those who violated their pledges
in executing policy that even their own
Democratic president was constrained
TO resent as ''perfidy and dishonor."

Speak Out, Like a Man!

bill-as man who deliberately tried

slightest ill will. lie may possibly be
elected, in spite of his record. But he
certainly owes it to his reputation as a
man, and to the friendship of those
who yet honor him with their conf
dence. to make some explanation of his
trickery in this campaign-either to
bra2en 1t out, with new misstatement
or else to frankly confess his wrong
doing and sue for forgiveness.
This is the time for Burke to speak.
His veracity has been impugned; and
his own witnesses have gone squarely
against him. The occasion is one which
calls for decisive action. Further ST.
lence will mean cringing confession;
further evasion will simply tighten the
coils OF his duplicity around his own
head. Come, now, Michael T. Burke,
speak out, like man.

Will he TO take part in the election OF a
United States senator in 1897. Under the
first administration II President CleVe-
land the nation was saved the terri
BILE business troubles it has experienced
under the present one because OF the fact
that the United States senate was Re-
publican and stood as an effectual block
in the way of all inlmical tariff legisla-
tion. The Importance of the Republican
party regaining and retaining control of
that body cannot be overestmated, If,
for any untoward cause, the next presi-
dent should be Democrat. the RepuDli-
can control of the national senate would
be a bulwark against further ruinous
tariff legislation. II Is by no means inn
possible that the vote of the member of
the national senate to be elected from
Pennsylvania in 1897 may be the deciding
one In that body. 1t is therefore vitally
important that as many Republican
members OF the legislature, both sena-
tors and representatives, be elected next
Tuesday as possible.

Elect Vaughan Senator.

| TEe Republican senatorial candidate
from this district, James c. Vaughan
whose portrait and biography appear
! on another page, has made, from the
beginning of this canvass, clean-cut
straightforward fight. Representing as
from humble origin, made the best OF
| their legitimate opportunities, he ap-
peals with especial earnestness to those
who by their votes are willing to en-
courage merit and quiet ambition. Mr.
Vaughan is not ostentatious, either in
politics or in other relations. He has
not deemed it necessary To his own sue
cess to abuse his opponent or to quar-
rel with those who may have differed
from him in their political, religious or
| social opinions. He has simply ap.
pealed to the voters of this senatorial
district to consult their best interests
| by the election of n Republican senator,
who shall be in harmony and in close
atilliation with the incoming admins
tration of Governor Hastings; and
along this common sense line he ought
| to win.
The present senator, Mr.. Mcdonald,
was chosen under particularly auspi-
cious circumstances-for him. He had
the unexpected, indeed the almost I'M
precedented, assistance of Demo-
cratic chief executive at his back: an
executive who had good reason to be
grateful to Scranton, the city in which
he was nominated, and to Lackawanna
county, the county which supplied one
eighth of his total plurality. Entering
the senate almost at the same moment
that Governor Pattison entered the gu
bernatorial mansion at Harrisburg
Senator Mcdonald, we repeat, had eX-
ceptional facilities to demonstrate the
existence within himself of any unde-
veloped resources in the line of aggres-
sive craftsmanship; but the four years
of his term have rolled around without,
as yet, bringing to light any striking
Republican to desert his party's nomi-
nee and to vote for Senator McDonald's
return.
Upon the contrary, the election of
General Hastings governor will take
away from the present member
his one means of political sup
l,A IA
turned, leave him adrift without
chart or compass in hopeless minor
ity. The only service which he could
perform for his own party would be
to vote against a first-class Republican
for United States senator in 1897: and
the only service he could render his
see that the pop-gun bills of the Demo
cratic minority might occasion more
noise than harm, and this service would
be almost unnecessary in a Republi-
can senate. Looked at from any
rational standpoint, Mr.. McDonald's $
usefulness to this district seems to have
run its course; whereas not to elect his
Republican competitor, James G.
Vaughan, would be simply to throw
the districts influence away, without
getting an iota of benefit in return.
1t seems to us, therefore, that every
Republican is in honor bound to vote
for Mr.. Vaughan: and the same reason
ing ought to win forhim, in addition. the
votes of many Democrats, who put leg
islative usefulness above mere partisan
sentiment.
