The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1894-10-06

A disgusted local Democrat writes as
follows to THE TRIBUNE, voicing a
feeling that is undoubtedly wide
spread among the unofliced member
ship of that badly demoralized party:
The quaint admission from "Wake Up"
in the Times Of the 4th INST. that there are
few croakers in the ranks of Democracy
is rather discouraging at the beginning OF
the campaign. To attribute treason and
cowardice to the rank and file of the Demo-
cratic party is all bQsh. II treason did
exist the leaders knew all about it, and
probably some have been benefited by it,
There is undoubtedly GOODNESS and indif-
ference in the party, and to create =
warmth of feeling aud harmony at the
eleventh hour is a very difficult matter.
1t is n well known fact that there is no
united action at the present time. There
are certain cliques, coteries and factions,
each set anxious for their own candidate,
but no unity. This was all caused by the
recipients OF governmental patronage
making bad use of 1t. Was this the fault
Of the partyY Are the earnest, honest
workers and voters to be traduced, WILL
fed and scourged accused Of treason and
cowardce for the lack Of good Judgment,
manliness and square dealing on the part
of would be leaders? l should think not.
II there are croakers in their midst it is
their own fault, and it is bad politics on
their part to acknowledge IL, as it surely
will be considered an omen Of the dire dis
aster that awaits them at the polls. This
| talk about arrogant wealth trampling its
followers in the dust Is all buncombe, for
it is about as well to be rolled in the dust
as to have it thrown into your eyes by the
blatant. domineering satraps-the puny
dotards or the ill-fed hirelings of semi
detunct, croaking Democracy Of Lacka-
wanna county.
Our correspondent, it must be con
fessed, uses severe language. But can
it be denied that there is a large
measure of truth in what he says? II
the Democratic party managers had
really desired harmony this year, why
should they, for instance, have taken
from eX Congressman Amerman his
rightful prerogative of naming the
federal appointments in this county
Was not the rapacity Of the Robinson'
and the Fahys in this graceless grail
for spOils sufficient in itself to DISCUS
the rank and file, without mentioning
the imbecility of the national admins
tration in its costly crusade upon
northern industry, enterprise and
thrift? When the leaders of a party
set the example of knitting each other
can they properly expect the high pri
Yates to take a great deal of interest il
the campaign? The complaints o
apathy with which they belabor tht
atmosphere should be dil ected towarC
the chief sinners, and not be turned
into abusive taunts at the expense 0
the rank and file.

The Turning of the Tide.

Unless Chairman Stranahan has
been made the victim of too eager re-
porter, the manager of the Singerly
canvass is aspiring for renown along
the dangerous pathway traversed by
the politician who talks. In the flood
of words which pours from Chairman
Stranahan's lips into recent number
of the Philadelphia Times we note
specimens like these:
With industry revlving everywhere aud
with the workshops, furnaces and factories
going into operation with Increased force
and on double turn. it should be very
plain to everybody that prosperity has
again returned in a manifold manner and
tbat it is impossible to cry it down.
II is all well enough for the Republican
manufacturer to close his mill for the effect
that 1t may have on the coming election,
but he takes on his hands fearful re-
sponsbility.
The tariff is not question Of politics
any longer, since 1t has been settled at least
for the next three years by Democratic
congress, and 1t can have no possible bear
ing ON the result.
The Wilson bill opens up the markets Of
the world to American labor, American in
vention and American machinery, and
this truth becomes palmer every day.
The Democratic vote will be out and tho
tide is turning strongly for MIR. Singerly;
in fact, 1t Is turning too strong to suit the
opposition,
The tariff may not be IA question of
politics any longer" but if it isn't,
Grover Cleveland evidently doesn't
know it, for he is bent on Continuing
the struggle, boldly challenging to
open Warfare The Democratic COM
mander-in-chief and his Pennsylvania
field marshal should get together.
If asked in what particulars ''the
Wilson bill opens up the markets of
the world to Aperican labor, Ameri-
can invention and American ma
chinery," Colonel Stranahan might be
puzzled for an answer. The Wilson
bill doesn't lower q single foreign
tariff, The tariffs that it lowers are all
on this side, and the goods that it lets
in are all made abroad. "The mar.
kets of the world" get IA chance to
overflow into our peerless home mar
ket, and we get nothing but scant
revenue in return.
Scranton the other day had an i'm E
pressive instance Of how "workshops,
furnaces and factories are going into
operation with increased force and on
double turn" when our biggest single
industry, the steel mill, shut down
because an English competitor had
underbid it on a southern contract
Everybody, truly, will be glad wher
prosperity shall return, but nobody
except the office holder is satisfied a
the kind of prosperity dished up by the
Democratic deck-hand cooks at Wash
ington.
If under these circumstances "thC
tidqfis turning strongly for Mr.. Sin
gerly,n let it turn. But we suspect
that what Colonel Stranahan mistakes
for turning tide is merely the swell o
his own fluent tongue.

An Interesting Battle.

The forthcoming election in Ohio
will be interesting from the fact that
it will afford tolerably accurate test
of the proposition that popular senti-
ment in the east is turning away from
the gold standard toward free and un-
limited silver coinage. The Demo-
cratic campaign in this state is being
conducted upon this as the central
issue, The chairman of the Demo-
cratic state executive committee,
Allen w. Thurman, son of Judge
Thurman of red bandana fame, has
prepared voluminous address, declar-
ing the restoration of silver to be the
one great question before the people,
and subordinating tariff reform, the
election of United States senators by
popular vote, and everything else to
the recently adopted plank in favor of
unrestricted silver coinage. The ad-
dress is to be made the basis of an en-
ergetic free silver campaign, in which
the queer spectacle will be presented
of Democratic orators quoting Pennsyl.
vania's senior senator as authority why
the people should ignore the tariff and
vote against the Republican candidate.
The fact that Ohio is Republican
state, having large industries, fertile
farm lands upon whose broad acres the
finest sheep are grazing in anticipation
of early slaughter as consequence OF
Democratic free wool, and countless
other interests each fostered by pro-
tective tariff, would seem to make II
an uninviting arena for such an eX.
pertinent, There would appear to be
no other state less likely to turn away
from the party under whose enacted
policy it had so long enjoyed prosper
ity, toward party which, having de.
ceived it two years ago, is to be sus,
pected of just such another trick now
If, however, in spite Of these consider
atlons, Ohio should 60 Democratic thi:
year, or waver or fall back from its old
time Republicanism, the circumstance
may be taken as proving that the free
silver sentiment really is growing ant
that the eastern organs Of public opin
ion, in saying to the contrary, have
born false testimony or been deceived
Ohio's verdict will, therefore, b'
awaited with keen interest.

POLITICAL NOTES.

Candidate Singerly has evidently made
up his mind that II he is to be slaughtered
Nov. G he might as well have all the fun
he can in the meantime. This is how he
yesterday read the riot act to Grover:
"President Cleveland and the friends OF
President Cleveland will without doubt
give a sturdy support to the regular DEM
ocra,ic state ticket in New York. 1t is au
insult to insinuate that they will be found
encouraging or aiding boilers, But no
time should be lost in making such an un-
mistakable avowal in favor Of Senator
Hill as would put an end to all question or
bubble. The avOwal should come from
the president himself" Such advice as
this is next door to treason in Grover
Cleveland's opinion.
1t was busy day which General Hast.
ings had in Schuylkill county yesterday.
In the morning he left Reading, went to
Tamaqua, Mahauoy City, Shenandoah,
Girardville Mahanoy Plane, Frackvile
and Port Carbon, speaking at each; and in
the evening he attended the monster mass
meeting at Pottsville. Schuylkill county
RepubicanSare in bad way, factionally,
but there was no show Of lukewarmness in
the reception which they accorded to the
neau OF the Ticket.
Tonight General Hastings and party
will go TO Easton to whoop things up for
Judge Kirkpatrick who is going to send
Candidate Hart back to his Pike county
poultry farm and give the Eighth district
first-class representative In congress.
Since General Frank Reeder took hold Of
the judges campaign the air has been
full of music down in Northampton,
and the Mutchler rihgsters have bee
seeking a safe place in which to hide.
Says the Philadelphia Press: collector
Grant Herring broke away from the re-
straints OF federal Office holding long
enough the other night to make partisan
speech in Wiliamsport in which he said
some exceedingly personal things about
the Republican candidate for governor,
Then he engaged in serio-comic talk
about what he called state issues. When
next he exercises his pernicious activity
on the stump Collector Herring ought 10
explain what federal Office holder has to
| do with state issuesn
John Leisenring ia expected home from
Europe today. 1t is probable that, owing
to the recent misfortune Ia his family, he
will not again take prominent part in
the campaign.

FROM PRESENT indications the Chi.
nese Empire isliable to besl up after
the manner of the boarding house pie
before the Korean war is over. In
many respects the division of the
kingdom now controlled by a supersti-
tious fgurehead would probably prove
a blessing, but there is cause for appre-
hension that the supply of yellow
vests, peacock's feathers and other dec
orations necessary to the happiness Of

WHEN ONE of the conspiring candi-
dates on the opposition ticket went to
Thomas d. Davies and proposed deal
for mutual advantage, the Republican
candidate for county treasurer, in his
direct, manly way said: mo, sir; if l
am to be elected, L want to have the
whole ticket go through with me. If
am to be defeated, want company"
That is the kind of man Tom Davies
is. Can any one doubt that he will
win?
