rhe Silly Season. Already On.

The silly season has begun early
among the Washington correspondents.
One of the most conspicuous of the
symptoms Of this recurring mania is
embodied in dispatch to the Philadel-
phia Times alleging that friends of ex-
President Harrison and Governor Nc
Kinley in congress will endeavor to
head off the growing prominence of the
Reed presidential boom by leading an
organized revolt against Mr.. Reeds
candidacy for the speakership Of the
Fifty-fourth congress.
1t dignifies a transparent fiction to
deny it. We allude to the present ex-
ample of journalistic romance simply
to exhibit one of the peculiarities of
thus started rolling will no doubt
gather momentum as the days glide by.
We shall, in due time, have gradations
Of this sort Of thing UNTIL as climax,
the Indiana ex-presldent will be de-
plcted as literally carrying pistols and
bowie knives, while Reed and Mckinley
will fairly scintillate with the CLEANS
of deadly weapons and the scowl of
mutual hate. The horizon, which now
is mellow with the happy halo of peace,
will, in all probability, yet become
livid and lurid with the horrid lights
Of war: and timid Republicans will not
be able to sleep o. nights from fear of

An Excellent Cabinet.

Whether considered from the stand
political equipoise and expediency, the
cabinet Of Governor-elect Hastings is
equally admirable. Geographically it
restores the balance disturbed when
Walter Lyon of Pittsburg, Col
onel Huff Of Westmoreland, and
Captain Haywood of Mercer re-
ceived prominent honors as represen-
tatives of the west and northwest; po-
litically it is replete with the shrewd-
ness Of General Reeder, one of the best
of contemporary politicians the wide
spread popularity Of Colonel Thomas j..
Stewart and the large personal famili-
arity with men and affairs enjoyed by
Colonel Lambert; and intellectually it
has in eX-Congressman Mccormick one
of the ablest lawyers and best Republi-
cans in the commonwealth.
We are confident that these men will
bring to public office sincere desire to
be fair, straightforward and honest.
The easy oscillations of a Harrity and
the demagogic pllancy of a Hensel will
be conspicuous by their entire absence
from the record of the incoming state
administration. The incoming advisers
thoroughly exemplify the best aspira-
tions of Republicanism and will have,
in their new positions, the entire conf
dence of the public.
One of the pleasant features of the
new cabinets appointment has been the
entire lack of friction among the sug-
gested aspirants. This is q happy aug
ury Of the harmony which seems
assured between governor and adj
visers, and between leaders ano
following in the party ranks
That with such an auspicious begin
ming General Hastings will have a
pleasant and prosperous tenure of his
new office. acceptable alike to himsel!
and to the people seems happily prob
| able, Il not actually certain.

THE NEW COUNTY IDEA.
I'm the Philadelphia Inauirer.

From the Philadelphia Inquirer.
The Scranton Tribune takes favorable
view of the proposition TO create new
county out Of the southwestern part of
Luzerne and the northern part of Schuyl-
kill counties, which new county II Is pro-
posed to call Quay county. There must
of course, be some good reasons for the
creation of the new county. Otherwise
the movement would not show the per-
sistency that II has shown. The main rea-
sons are found In the remoteness of the
territory from the county seats. From
the Schuylkill portion many residents
must go through Hazleton and make a
journey OF forty-seven miles to reach
their present county seat at Pottsvllle.
From the Luzerne portion journey Of
fifty miles and the crossing of three
mountain ranges are required in order to
reach the county seat at Wilkes-Barre.
The mileage fees of witnesses and 9TH
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1894-11-21

This would be of inestimare value to
science. The idea is not actually new,
for II was the custom in Italy in the IF
teenth century to turn the condemned
criminals over to the surgeons for the
benefit of science, and science was
greatly benefited. This would dispose
of the condemned to good advantage.
There would not be any sentimental
visits of strangers, nor deifying of
murderer, and his cell would not be a
bower Of roses. As soon as II man Is
condemned now he is given anything
and everything he wants. The object
of punishment for crime is to have the
punishment act as deterrent" And
instead Of acting as such nowadays, it
acts rather as an invitation to crime.
for the adulation that criminal noto-
riety brings.
The talk nowadays of resuscitating a
condemned murderer is interesting
enough, from scientific standpoint;
but it is just possible that 1t is having
a bad effect upon those who are easily
melted to commit crime for the public
ity that they get out of it. The material
point with reference to those murderers
in New York state who have been sub
jected, from time to time, to the cleo
trical chair, Is not so much whether
they were killed by the electric current
or by the surgeons knife as it Is that
they were killed dead, eliminated bodi-
ly. as it We're, from the future problem
of crime deterrence. The law, in recog
nizing the. propriety Of capital punish
ment, leaves little margin for fine dis
elimination as to the particular method
of death. 1t sanctions the principle of
life for life; and q good many per-
sons OF average deceny and intelligence
appear to be quite content to let it go
at that.
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1894-11-21

ers are so great that 1t costs both the
present counties more to govern these re-
mote portions of their respective auton-
vomles than the territory in question
yields to the county treasures In taxes.
The inaccessibility of the courts and the
consequent reluctance of people to np-
pear as witnesses is said to be largely re-
sponsible for the well-known lawlcss-
ness of the Hazleton region. For these
reasons which It must be admitted are
strong ones, The Tribune says that the
Quay or Halle county movement stands
upon an entirely different footing from
those schemes of politicians to create Of
fees and opportunities for themselves and
their friends. At the county seats of the
old counties there Is any amount of rail-
lery, innueHdo and open denunciation of
the new county movement. But 1t must
be remembered that originally there We're
only Philadelphia, Bucks and Chester
counties in the whole commonwealth. All
the rest have been created as the need
for them grew. II there be real need for
the new county of Halle or Quay, as
there seems to be, 1t will come.

1t is fact, pleasantly brought out in

Holmes in addition to writing some of
the choicest literature of our times, was
one of the fathers of outdoor athletics

this is credtable retrospect; but there

The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1894-11-21

The experiment of a penny afternoon
newspaper, which seems to be hopeless in
Scranton, with its 10000 population, has
succeeded so well in Altoona city Of
only 10000 that the enterprising Gazette
OF that city has just been forced to en-
large to neat eght-page form. The Ga
zette, in any form, is bright, chirpy and
full of news, and to all appearances is
equally as prosperous financially.
