He Praises the Ticket and says Il Is Sure
Winner.

"Yes. have just returned from Arkan-
sas," said Colonel J. r. Hailosveil as be
greeted an EAGLE reporter yesterday AFTER
noon, ''and am very busy getting ready to
return tomorrow 10 finish .uo some busl-
ness matters down in that state.
The colonel, however, consented to say
a few words on the political situation, and
in answer to the question a 10 what he
thought of the Republican platform and
ticket and the coming campaign, said:
s'While | was detained in Arkansas and
was unable to attend the state conven-
tion, the first one / have missed Tor twenty
five years, still. Judging from reports, IL
seemed to have been the grandest and
most harmonious convention ever heid IN
the state and might well be tasen rs an
indication of the inevitable hepuolcan
victory in November"

to the point, and shows signs OF returning

CONVENTION ECHOES.

Among the available Democratic timber
scattered about the court room were 9. G.
Boland, Cornelius ComegyS, Edward Ly-
nett, Hon. John E. Roche and F. j. Fitz.
simmons, ali Of whom had declined the
nomination for congress- When Messrs.
Burke, Robinson, Campbell and Howell
are added to this list Of "no-thank. yous,"
it would lead one to believe that there
were no bones broken in the clamor for
congressional martyrdom.
Mayor W. L. Connell, Adjutant W. s.
Millar, Candidate John H. Thomas and
Attorney Byron F. Akerly watched the
proceedings of the morning session Of the
convention from the little nook In the
court room which the newspaper reporters
occupy during the trial Of cases.
There were very few Republicans occu-
pying seats reserved for delegates, which
is quite contrast to the condition of af-
fairs at the Republican convention of q
week ago, when nearly every good seat
within the bar enclosure held Democrat.
Squire Gilday, OF Archibald, permitted
his ponderous magisterial dignity to adorn
large area in front of the judges bench.
The Squire is far seeing man. He wore
a yatcning cap. They will be fashionable
on the Salt river trip this year.
The six Democratic voters of the Third
district Of the Ninth ward were ably
represented by 4. P. Duffy. 1t was Mr..
Duffy's first appearance as delegate to a
county convention and he bore his new
laurels with becoming grace.
In the matter Of apportioning the offices
little judgment was shown by the Demo-
cratic convention. Dunmore was given
Judge and recorder Of deeds. Carbondale
jury commissioner and all the other off ces
went to Scranton
Editor E. j. Lynett in nominating James
j. Healey made a desperate effort to en-
thuse the convention over tine merits Of the
ticket they were nominating, butt refused
to be enthused.
Ex-Mayor Frank Beamish was present
at the convention and greeted many OF his
old time friends. His health is now better
than it has been for several years.
Jack Colborn and w. II. Withe-s, each
Of whom recently created furore by
speech making, occupied adjoining seats
within the bar enclosure.
Honest John Gibbons contented himself
with being an ordinary spectator and
feliciatated himself upon his extraordinary
good luck in being such.
Charles P. O'Malley, Republican candi-
date for representative In the fourth legis-
lative district, is right at home among the
enemy,
Owen Connolly, Of Minooka, father Of
the late Judge John F. Connolly, was an
uninterested onlooker at the convention.
Had there been less Scranton timber on
the ticket Denis J.. Roche would have been
winner for jury commissioner.
Yesterdays convention will 60 down in
history as one Of the tamest ever held by
the Democratic party.
Not one of the candidates made speech
to the delegates.

TAM MANYs FAT PULL.

NeD York Correspondence Chicago Record
just now. when the air is full Of the
righteous indignation of the people against
Tammany, it is not amiss to recall what an
immense job those who propose to over
throw Tsmmany have undertaken. The
city comptroller in his annual report shows
that the city government has on its rolls
Ii. 600 salarled employees and expends SS9,-
0O0, 600 year. This is more money and
patronage than is dispensed by the state
governments Of one-half Of the st ates in
the Union. The average salary of state
governors does not amount to S., 00G a year.
The governors Of only three states receive
as much as $4,000 year salary, but in
New York city there are 1S9 Offices that
pay S. 900 year and more and forty-one
of these pay yearly salaries of $40 900 and
more. The most lowly ward-heeler may
hope to become an IS, 900 a-year police jus.
tice if he labors faithfully in Tammany's
interests, or he may become coroner
and receive So, 900 year for ''sitting" on
an occasional corpse

An Economic Enigma.

nlr. Merrifeld, the gentleman whom
our friends, the enemy, have named
for congress as last resort, defines his
position with reference to the over
shadowing issue before the people of
Lackawanna county as that of "a con-
servative tariff Democrat, after the
school of the late Samuel ]. Randall" b"
The platform upon which he was
nominated heartily indorsesn the
Democratic national platform of 1892,
that declared protection a sham, a
fraud and violation of the constitu.
ton; and in the very next paragraph
"congratulates" the people upon the
passage of tariff measure which
protects labor, without fostering
trusts" What does all this mean?
A conservative tariff Democrat of
the Sam Randall school" means a
Democrat who can, when nobody is
looking, pocket o tariff schedule or
two for the benefit of some favorite
home industry. But according to the
Democratic national platform of 1892,
even this furtive and spasmodic pro-
lection is FRAUDULENT and "unconstitu.
tional"; and according to Grover
Cleveland the aticcongressman
who tries to get slice of this fraud is
guilty of "party perfdy and party dis
honor" In congratulating the country
on the passage of tariff measure that
"protects labor" Mr.. Merrifield's sup
porters have laid themselves open to a
charge of vivid Inconsistency, while in
avering that this measure .'does not
foster trusts' they exhibit humiliating
evidence that they have failed lately
to read the papers.
We know that Mr.. Merrifeld's posi-
tion in this matter is one of great deli
cacy. We appreciate his embarrass-
ment and sympathize with his obvi-
Gus distress. Consequently we cannot
find 1t in us to be severe with the man.
He will doubtless do the best that he
can, under the circumstances; and if
the race which he is running were a
cake walk or humorous procession
for sweet charity's sake, we should
even feel disposed to wish him success.
The fact that he and those whom he
protestingly represents are instead
trifiing with subject of the utmost
personal Importance to the entire citi.
zenship of this peerless industrial COM
munity-a subject which means to the
voters of Lackawanna county all the
difference between prosperous employ
ment at fair wage and gaunt idleness
under the shadow of PROSTATE business
-moderates our leniency, however,
and induces to suggest that this is no
fit time for economic burlesque.

THIS Is HOW the Washington Post
Independent editorially comments on
the Maine elections: "What Maine
did yesterday we expect the other
states in the north, east and west, at
least, to do when their opportunity
presents itself. We expect, in word,
that the whole country will rise in
protest against the foolish, mischievous
and untoward policy which the
cuckoos, the mugwumps and the DEM
agogues have indicated. The country
is always intelligent and patriotic, and
it can be relied upon, we think, to ac-
cept the Republican party as the safest,
wisest and most wholesome custodian
of the national welfare under the cir
cumstances that now prevail in the
Democracy"
