Re-elect Judge Archibald.

The position of law judge in coun-
ty like our own requires ability of q
high order, the possession, by its occu-
pant, of the judicial temperament, and
intimate familiarity with the prece-
dents and practices Of our courts.
Other things being equal, the man
who, during ten years, has shown him
self worthy of confidence and respect
in this trying office is preferable to
man whose tenure of the Office came by
appointment, covered merely few
months and was eXtinguished upon its
first appeal to the voters of the judicial
district.
In this campaign we regard it as
complimentary to ex-Judge P. P.
Smith to assume that other things are
equal, and that the comparison we
have just drawn between his candi-
dacy and that of Judge Archibald is a
fair one. Certainly at no point in the
direction Of personal ability and judi
cial equipment do we consider Judge
Archibald inferior to Mr.. Smith, while
in the important item Of experience,
there is no doubt that Judge Archibald
is very materially his superior. The
TRIBUNE has heretofore uttered words
of personal compliment to Mr.. Smith,
and it does not regret doing so; but,
assuming him to be, as he is, a studi-
Gus gentleman and a progressive citi-
zen, is that necessarily reason why
Judge Archibald, his equal in most
things, and in some things his supe-
rior, should be pulled down?
When the Democratic papers predict
that Mr.. Smith twill be triumphantly
elected at the coming election" it
seems to US that they put careless es-
innate upon the gratitude and the dis
cernment of the voters of Lackawanna
county. We shall endeavor, in our
illusions to this particular part of the
current campaign, to dwell as lightly as
possible upon purely partisan aspects,
for the proper reason that partisan con.
siderations ought not to be made prom.
inent in the Judiciary. Yet we may
with propriety question if any Repub-
lican has reason to prefer Judge Smith
to Judge Archibald; and also ask Of
Democrats whether they would really
wish to replace a jurist of state reputa.
ton by one known only through the
brief accident of gubernatorial favor
itism.

The ENTHUSIASTIC and somewhat
hilarious gentlemen who came to our
city some weeks ago, imbued with the
determination to show the Democrats
of Lackawanna county how to run a
campaign, have not, since their recent
fling at Charles P. O'Malley, been as
rip-roaringly enthusiastic as they once
were, but they know more. Among
other things, they now know that the
way to gain votes for Democratic can
didates is not by gratuitously abusing
those candidates on the opposing ticket
who are of Irish descent.

The Camnaipn Onened.

The Republican canvass in Lacka-
wanna county opened, with last Ieven-
ing's enthusiastio meeting in the
Rockingham theater, under the most
promising conditions. The party
throughout the county is again har-
monious. coherent and determined; its
ranks are rapidly closing up and 1t
right wheels toward the dispirited and
scattered enemy in superb fighting
trim.
There is every reason why the entire
Republican ticket, from congressman
and senator and judge down to jury
commissioner should be elected this
fall, by majorities in full unison with
those certain to be cast for the splendid
state ticket; and there is no reason
why this should not be. The local
ticket represents, in its entirety, su-
perior average of ability, experience
and party deserving; and, with due
discount for personal disappointment
inseparable from spirited contests in the
nominating convention, its prospect OF
triumphant election is excellent at
every point.
1t should be source of general graf
ification that the plane of the CAM
paign has been lifted above ugly and
vicious personalities, into the region OF
courteous and sensible argument. No
doubt it will be difficult to keep our
Democratic friends that high up; but
to the extent of Republican ability
this should be done. The cause of pro
lection and honest government this
year stands with an unbroken front
presented defiantly to the free trade
enemy; and will either win grand
victory, in which all Republicans shall
share, or else go down in defeat, as one
man.

quail and unfair representation in the
councils of their favorite party. Bad
as are some of the practices under the
delegate system, that system is i'm
measurably superior to this much
juggled theory of equal representation
by unequal counties, and a change to
the convention plan, properly backed
by public sentiment, is greatly to be
dao;ral

of the Wilson tariff bill, to the London
chamber OF commerce.
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1894-10-03

WE ARE INDEBTED to what was, un-
til recently, Mr.. Hensel's paper, for
the information that "there are Demo-
Gratis who believe in protection for pro-
tection's sake, and there are those who
do not want a protective tariff even for
revenues sake; but the party as par
ty desires to give all the protection
that it can give to the industries of the
country in laying tariff for revenue.
In the present tariff, and in the Wilson
tariff for which it was substituted by
the senate, it has gone further than
this in some schedules and has laid du-
ties that are not at all for revenues but
are only protective duties" And for
doing this unconstitutional" thing
the Wilson tariff, so-called, got very
beautifully laid out by President Cleve-
land, as involving gross betrayal of
trust and committing the administers
ton to policy of "perfidy and dis
honor" If the Democratic party wants
to protect an American industry il
wants to do that which its own ma
tional platform repudiates as fraudu.
lent and unconstitutional. Why moi
have done with this awkward attempt
at straddling?

POLITICAL NOTES.


The effort has been made in Northamp-
ton county by Howard Mutchler's man
Scott, who is the Democratic candidate
for judge, to blacken Judge Reeder's rec
ord by the charge that, owing to illness,
which compelled him several times to be
absent, he did not give the public full
equivalent for the money 1t paid TO him.
We say that Mutchler's man Scott has
made this effort; but it is perhaps more
accurate to attribute it directly to Nut
chler, himself. The charge, as is usual in
such cases, has proved boomerang.
Judge Reeder, during three years of ill
health, tried only fifteen fewer cases than
his robust colleague, Judge Schuyler; while
during the same time, Mr.. Scott, as an at
torney of the court. had forty six cases con-
tinued, to suit his convenience. Thus, if
Judge Reeder's record is censurable, Scott's
is three times as much so and the foolish
argument falls fiat. Mutchler and his ring
ought to learn that it doesn't pay to in
dulge in baby play before a community
that reads and thinks.
M
In the course Of an exhaustive editorial
on this falls seventeen judicial contests in
PENNSYLVANIA the Philadelphia Times lays
down the following proper rule Of conduct
and applies it to the local district: 1.-THE
people of Pennsylvania should neither vote
for nor against any judicial candidate be-
cause of his partisan affiliations unless he
is kno to be one who would carry his
partisan prejudices into his judicial office.
The sound, safe rule is for every good
citizen, regardless Of party, to vote for
the reelection Of thoroughly competent,
honest and faithful judges without ques-
tioning their political views. No partisan
Judge can properly discharge his duty.
and il he shall be chosen by partisan meth.
ods or to serve partisan ends, he must be
false to his oath or false to his obligations
to those who have elected him. The judi
cial Office Is the one position In our free
government that should be entirely above
all partisan or personal prejudices, and
honest, capable judges of every faith
should be re.elscted In the interest Of the
public welfare. In the Lackawanna dis
trict the present Judge Archibald is op-
posed by Mr.. Smith. 1t is more than
probable that the county will give Re-
publican majority this year. but even il il
did not, it is quite likely that Judge
Archibald would be reelected because OF
his admitted ability and fidelity in the
discharge Of his duty"

WILSON IN LONDON,


OF course you've heard the tidings that
have flashed across the sea,
They're dining Billy Wilson where every
thing Is ''free,"
The prince he pats him on the back and
toasts him up and down. ..
They've granted him the freedom OF their
blasted London Town,
And even Jack the Ripper, reeking with
the CUTTERS slime,
Has vowed to see that Billy has
high
ola
time.
They thank him for the spindles that are
silent everywhere,
They bless him for the hungry cries that
rend the autumn air.
They praise him for the pitching OF thou
sand Coxey camps,
The toast him for the making Of our null
titude Of tramps;
Aye, everywhere they seek him out in
Queen Victorias cline,
Determined that our Bill shall have
high
old
time.
The British lion lifts his tail when he our
Billy sees,
And Whispers "Dear old comrade, you
may twist it all you please,
You've tried to ruin our rivals meath the
banner Of the stars,
You've crippled Uncle Samuel more than
twenty bloody wars:
Well banquet you with pleasure and we'll
write you up in rhyme,
Till you return pll see you have
high
old
time"
The freemen Of the district will be voting
by and by,
A shattered Wilson bill will soon be sail
ing toward the sky;
Mid the winds of next November, as they
whistle cold and wild,
The diner out in England will not know
his free trade child,
For the men of West Virginia, heroes true
to freedoms cline,
Will see that Billy Wilson has
devil
ofa
time.
