Exit One Moral Leper.

The way of the transgressor is hard,
even in Kentucky. The defeat of
Breckinridge at Saturdays primaries
did more than save the people of the
Lexington district from the necessity
of whipping him at the polls; it vindi.
Gated the manhood of the entire south,
which was arraigned by Breckinridges
candidacy, and established new and
conspicuous mile-post in the cause Of
honest reform.
Especially praiseworthy is the share
which women have taken in this
moral victory. Never before, in so
public fashion, have the fundamen-
tai laws of social decency and social
justice been so audaciously and so i'm
pertinently defied as they were in the
impudent demand Of this Kentucky
adulterer for the suffrages of a respect
able people. Never before, in the history
of American politics, has it been rem
dered possible for candidate for pub
lie office thus brazenly to hold up, for
weeks, and to shame, the honor and
the purity of the American home.
That the women of his district should
resent this was nothing less than a
prime duty of self protection. In that
bloodless battle Of prayer and entreaty
they have done service to American
liberty not less heroic and not less
magnificent than was done by the rev.
olutionary fathers upon the battlefelds
of the war for American independence.
Let no man be so lost to decency as
to sneer at this memorable result. Bad
as our politics is and far from perfec-
ton as all of us are, it is not yet time
to say that the Christian ideals of per-
sonal purity and social cleanness dare
be overthrown in the circles Of our
public men. 1t was not Breckinridge,

Improve the Fire Department.

Improve the Fire Department.
The big fire of Saturday has quick
ened interest in number of subjects
connected with Scranton's freight
ing forces. 1t has newly demonstrated
the magnificent fidelity, skill and
courage of the volunteer members of
the local department, and as it has
done this it has simultaneously in
creased the popular demand for a more
substantial public recognition of their
worth.
The Scranton fire department should
be paid department. Every man in
1t should be compensated for his serv-
ices and perfected in his training there
for. What other city of the country,
of corresponding size, gives so little in
cash in return for so much in brave,
unflinching and effective work?
The Scranton fire department should
enjoy the security of a firemens pen
sion fund, municipal or state or both.
The men who voluntarily risk their
lives for Others should be protected
against want in case of mishap. In
case of death their families should be
protected. This is only fair. 1t is
what the nation does for her war vet
erans and what any decent private
employer would do, up to the limit of
his ability, for worthy employe in
jured or killed in the line of duty. The
municipality cannot well afford to he
mean in this matter.
One smaller suggestion has been
made that nevertheless is important in
its way. The firemen, while at work,
should be provided by the city with
food and refreshment. Private hospi-
tality, in time of fires, is often liable to
be interrupted. 1t does not breed aus
piciously amid turmoil and excitement.
The men who contribute so generously
of their labor and daring ought not to
depend for nourishment during ardu-
Gus service upon some private citizens
thoughtfulness. The city itself should
maintain an adequate commissariat.
1t is money saved to be liberal with
firemen. The cost of their proper
maintenance is small percentage
upon the practical good that they
achieve, upon the dollars and cents, if
you please, that they save from de
struction.

The Same Old Trick.

Judge Merrifeld says he is "Pro-
lection Democrat The Democratic
national platform, adopted at Chicago
and re-indorsed last Tuesday in Scran-
ton, says that protection is "fraudu-
lent' and unconstitutional" Judge
Merrifield, therefore, is fraudulent
Democrat and an unconstitutional
Democrat; and the party which forced
this nomination upon him stands self
convicted before the voters of Lacka-
wanna county of a qualification seldom
equalled even by the quick action
straddlers of Pennsylvania Democracy
The shrewd citizen can be buncoed
once, but not twice at the same game.
MIR. Amerman, too, was "Protection
Democrat" He was a "Protectionist"
until election; afterward, he became
to all practical purposes an arrant free
trader, supporting free wool and doing
anything else that the free trade bosses
of his party commanded him to do.
Hines, in Luzerne, was another "Pro-
lection Democrat" who howled one
way and voted the other. What as
suranCe have we that Mr.. Merrilield is
not trying once more to manipulate
the same old trick?
1t has cost the country $4,0O0,000,00O
during the past two years to ascertain
that the Democratic party dared not
be trusted. Some of this cost was paid
byLackawanna county-paid in wages
lowered, in employment lost, in bust
ness downcast and in confidence gone.
The Democratic party, through It's
president and through his legislative
lieutenant, Mr.. Wilson, of West Vir-
ginia, says that this carnival of incom-
petent tariff tinkering must go on un-
til protection is a thing of the past.
Isn't it cheeky, then, for Judge Merr-
field to come before the people of this
district and say to them: "You
needn't fear me; am Democrat, but
my Democracy doesn't count, for am
Protection Democrat of the Sam
Randall school?'"
Away with such deadly trifling! Let
US have done with such nauseating
and such hurtful sham.
