lime to Stop Whining.

One of the queer political facts of to-
day is the extreme loneliness of the
Democratic organs at what they call
Republican intermeddling. That was
an instance in point when the Harris
burg Patriot, the other day, got red in
the face and began to call names be-
cause our esteemed independent con-
temporary, the Truth, had asked it a
few proper questions about the Demo-
cratic party's attitude toward the tariff.
Another is supplied in the following
amusing sentence from the Lancaster
Intelligencer:
The Philadelphia Press maliciously seeks
to stii up the discussion as to whether a
Democrat can be u protectioDist, which
the Harrisburg Patriot started and which
we disposed OF, in our judgment, with the
statement that all the Democratic tariff
measures that had been proposed, as well
as that which passed, contained protec-
tion duties: from which we drew what
seemed to be the necessary conclusion that
Tue DemOCTdIlC purity ldNoTcu mhdSuT6
Of protection; and that Democrats favor
ing protection must be at home in their
party.
The Intelligencer heads its editorial
"Mixing Inn, very much as if 1t re-
garded it crime for Republican
journal to cross-question the Demo-
cratic witnesses in the box. But un-
fortunately the Democratic party it.
self, and not the Harrisburg Patriot nor
the Philadelphia Press, is responsible
for this discussion. When, in its last
national platform, that party fiercely
inveighed against protection as "fraud-
ulent,"a a "sham," and violation of
the constitution, it gave proper ground
for the inquiry whether an honest pro-
tectionist could consistently remain a
Democrat. If "all Democratic tariff
measures have Contained protection

Connecticut's Verdict.

Last Monday the people of Connec-
ticut held local elections. The party
line was not drawn in these elections
with the same tensity that it would
have been had the election been a
state or a congressional one. Never
theless, there is uniformity about the
returns from Connecticut which car
ries a lesson to all who are not will
fully blind.
The majorities are not complete yet,
but they indicate Republican major
itysufficient to elect the governor with
out the election being thrown into the
legislature at the November election.
OF the towns heard from l06 went Re-
publican, twenty-nine Democratic and
twenty-seven were divided. Last year
eighty-three went Republican, fifty
Democratic and twenty-nine divided.
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1894-10-05

The two missing towns are Sterling, in
Windham county, and New Fairfield,
in Fairfield county. Both of these
were divided in politics last year. The
most important Republican gains
have been in the manufacturing
towns, where complete reversal of
previous majorities has been made.
The people of Connecticut thus take
their place along with those of Penn
sylvania, Oregon, Maine and New
Hampshire, protesting by the one con-
stitutional and effective means within
their reach against the havoc which
Democratic incompetency has already
wrought and against the still greater
turmoil that it threatens to cause in
pursuance of the presidents command
to "go on with the war"

Singerly to Visit Us.

1t will be pleasant intelligence to
the citizens of Lackawanna county, ir-
respective of party, that William M.
Singerly has consented to appear and
to speak here one day during the last
week in October. Mr.. Singerly, to be
sure, is the nominal gubernatorial can
didate ofa party for which the deceiv-
ed wage-earners of this industrial COM
munity have no possible use; and his
visit among us will not win unto him
self a single vote. Nevertheless, we
are glad that he is coming and frankly
bespeak for him q courteous welcome
and patient hearing.
Such reception is his due as the
candidate of one of our leading politi-
cal parties. But it is much more his
due as an honest and able man gone
estray into the paths of political error
and caught, all too credulously, in the
artful partisan net spread for his en-
snarement by William F. Harrity.
Mr.. Singerly, individually, Is worthy
of a better fate than the sacTificial role
which he is now forced to play. If
there shall be consolation to him in
ever so brief respite from his home
environment among "ringsters, roost-
ers and ruffians," Scranton's hospital.
ity is far too generous and far too SYM
pathetic to draw partisan dead line.
The visit of Mr.. Singerly to Scranton
ought to bring with it another and a
more important advantage. 1t ought
to strike lusty and sturdy blow at
the fallacious notion that a self-con-
fessed protectionist like Edward Mer-
rifeld, for instance, has any place on a
Democratic congressional ticket. Mr..
Singerly has plainly said, through the
columns of his Record, that "protec-
ton Democrat is fraud.n Unless we
much mistake the man, he will not now
seek to squirm away from that fair,
forcible and emphatic definition, back
ed up, as it is, by the last Democratic
national platform. He will, of course,
reiterate it, let the partisan conse-
quences be what they may.
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1894-10-05
The Real Revival.

Editor Singerly and his trained staff
of industrial rainbow chasers may cry
peace and prosperity to the business
interests of this country till doomsday,
if they choose; but there will be no
peace until the Democratic party.
in its present attitude as a tariff
smasher, shall be removed as the
crowning menace from the forward
pathway of American industry; and
there will be no permanent and lasting
prosperity until the men who conduct
business enterprises in this. country
are convinced that they are to be pro-
tected and encouraged by national leg
islation, so far as possible, instead of
being made the targets of doctrinaire
experiments, class prejudice and legal
lied plunder.
When President Cleveland, in his now
famous letter to Representative Catch
lngs, of Mississippi-a letter which
the astute Democrotic national COM
mittee has been careful to eliminate
from the newly.issued Democratic
handbook-took his place with the
rank and file of the Democratic party
who believe in tariff reform, who know
what it is, and who REFUSE TO AC~
CEPT THE RESULTS EMBODIED IN THIS
(Wilson-Gorman) BILL AS THE CLOSE
OF THE WAR" when, in another place
in this same letter, the president said
that the "millions Of his countrymen
who have fought bravely for tariff re-
form SHOULD BE EXHoRTED TO CON-
TINUE THE STRUGGLE, BOLDLY CHAL-
LENGING TO OPEN WARFARE" there
was an end to the promise either of
peace or of prosperity which even the
much-mottled senate tariff bill at one
time held out through the fact that it
represented an end to intolerable sus-
pense. Not content with the ruin
which his agitation had wrought, the
president eXhorts his followers to con-
tinue the fight, until the last spark of
lingering hope shall have been quench-
ed among the business men of the
United States, and their peerless home
market handed over in fee simple to
the manufacturers and merchants OF
Europe.
This, we say, is what the Democratic
party is consciously or unconsciously
trying to accomplish. 1t will not sue
ceed, for the simple fact that the patri'
otic sense of the saving majority of our
citizenship will not permit it to sue
ceed. But in order to foil its mistaken
purpose, the Democratic party must
again be made harmless. In its mad
hands power breeds only abuse and
responsibility only mania and ne.
glect. The business interests Of
the country have drawn in.
spiration and hope from the re-
cent election returns; but the one
great and steady revival in trade will
not come, to stay, until there shall be
entrusted with legislative and execu
tive control u party which does not gel
dizzy under the influences of power
nor mad at the agencies which make
for business success.

HOW NOT TO DO 1T.

boasts Of being great news gatherer, on
Monday evening gave its patrous iu this
city another illustration Of show not to

fact that the supreme court at Pittsburg
had given the final adjudication in the
long. contested Stevens will case. This de-
cislon, which secures to.a public charity OF
this city the Stevens legacy Of $50, 900, was
one Of great interest, but only the readers
of the New Era got the news. The United
Press doesn't blow its own trumpet very
loudly, but it gets there every time with
news Of interest to the readers Of the New
Era. And when you see it there, you can
be assured it is true

AN IDIoTic ATTEMPT.
Miidnapolis Journal.

The Democratic campaign book which
is now being circulated by the congress-
ional committee shows that pages from
20S to 225 are missing The index, which
has not been changed, shows that these
pages contained Mr.. Cleveland's letter to
Chairman Wilson and his letter to Con.
gresham Catchings. The pages were cut
out after the matter had been stereotyped
and when it was impossible to change the
numbering OF the pages or the index. This
idlotic attempt to suppress the presidents
letters is an insult to the Intelligence Of
thelpeople, and is eminently characteristic
of the party Of false pretenses.

THE DEMOCRATIC local organ cannot
alter facts by its use of hard names.
The Democratic party may have had
protectionist leaning once, but it has
since vastly deteriorated. 1t is now
the party of free trade; or of revenue
tariff, which is as near as any scheme
of government ever gets to free trade.
The Democratic party has declared
that protection is fraudulent and un,
constitutional, ,thatits continuance as a
part OF our revenue policy is fraud
and sham, and that it ought to be
wiped out. If this is not free trade,
pray, what is?

duties" then the Intelligencer must
admit, unless it repudiate its party's
platform, that "all Democratic tariff
measures" have been, to some extent,
" fraudulent and unconstitutional"
Democrats who favor protection, ac-
cording to the highest Democratic
standard, favor fraud, favor unconsti-
tutionality; and yet the Intelligencer
wants them "to be at home" in the
party which has deliberately cast them
out, with the indelible brand of fraud
upon their garments.
AS for Republicans "Mixing In," we
suspect they will continue to mix,
whether the Democracy likes it or not.
When a Democrat, bearing this stamp,
comes before them, as in this district,
and asks for votes to help elect him to
congress, it becomes a proper and time
ly duty for Republicans to ''mix in"
No citizen of Lackawanna county is
unconcerned in this discussion. Each
has legitimate right to know whether
Mr.. Merrifield, claiming to be pro-
tectionist, can be Democrat, or
whether, claiming to be a Democrat,
he can at the same time be true blue
protectionist, with grit enough to stick
by protection. And if there be any
other districts in the United States
where q similar anomaly prevails on
the Democratic congressional ticket, it
becomes the duty of Republicans also
to "miX inn there.
The Democratic party itself has
raised this issue. Now let it face the
music and stop its whining.
