The new metallic circuit telephone line
that is being built across the country to Bar
Hsrbor, will be great convenience to the
people of that famous resort. Yesterday
Lineman How ell talked over this line from
here to Camden, and said that every word
could be distinctly heard. This was the FIRST
connections made over the new line. 1t
will continue direct across from Camden to
Bar Harbor and will also reach Bangor,
Ellsworth and other important points in
that section. 1t is being built by the New
England Telephone & Telegraph Co., and
crossing the town of Union cost the COM
pany 5000. The idea is to construct an
other line next summer to Bar Harbor, II
the season at that place is lively one.
This will give this resort telephone connec-
ton with New England, and in fact all
places reached by the long distance tele-
phone.

TO REvlvlFY rHs LEAGUE.
Pittsburg Times.

PittsbuTg Times.
The Republican State league indicated
the wisdom Of its members by selecting
for its president, Major Everett Warren, of
Lackawanna county. Major Warren had
long been vice president Of the organiza.
tion and his promotion was a natural and
graceful recognition Of what was due him
for his services to the league and to the
Republican party. His selection was also
in strict accord with the position first
enunciated by the Times year ago and
reiterated few weeks ago that the presi.
dent of the league should be a young Re-
publican resident in Democratic or
doubtful county who would give a great
part OF his time to the work of the organ :
ization and not make his position merely
an ornamental one and convenience for
promoting some personal political project.
Major Warren will see to 1t that the
league is built up where 1t is most needed.
He will visit Democratic and doubtful
counties and see that Republican club,
are organized in them which will be en-
couraged and kept alive by the frequent
notice they will receive from the organiza- :
tion's headquarters that their welfare is a
matter of concern there. The league has
been of little influence and has retrograded
for years just because Of the lack Of such a
policy as that which the new president
will pursue. The new style of work should
be inaugurated at once. II 1t lie, congress
sional districts can be captured for the
Republicans in November which they will
otherwise lose.

POLITICAL NOTES,

A. j. Colborn, jr., whose eloquent
speech at Harrisburg is yet winning
praiseworthy mention, has already begun
to reap the consequences Of sudden fame.
Each mail that comes nowadays deluges
him with requests for campaign dates.
One Of the first to demand his assistance
was friend Of Mr. Colborn's father,
Chris Magee, of Pittsburg. I'VE want
you to talk for us in Allegheny" said Mr..
Magee, land you can name your own
price" David Martin, of Philadelphia,
also wants to book Scranton's favorite
campaign orator as one of his stellar polit-
ical attractions, and the requests from
other Republican managers In various parts
of the state are almost sufficient, il acceded
to, to occupy Mr.. Colborn's time without
intermission from now until election.
&**
Among the speakers at the Harrisburg
mass meeting Wednesday night was Rep J.
resentative Charles W. Stone, Of Warren,
who has the reputation at Harrisburg aud
also at Washington of being one Of the
ablest men in public life today. Mr.. Stone
came fresh from the halls Of the perfidy
and dishonor congress, where he has made
a brilliant record among the minority
members for his masterly exposition of
the currency question, his elaboration of
legislation relating to immigration and his
strong grasp upon other vital topics of the
times. His speech was sound, cogent and
convincing, and would make excellent
campaign literature, Mr. Stone, it is
quietly intimated, has an eye on the
United States senatorship; and il he were
to win 1t, this commonwealth would not
be the loser.
Upon another page today TIE TRIBUNE
takes pleasure In presenting gallery OF
the portraits of several Of the candidates
for state or county Office whose names are
at the top Of this editorial page. 1t will
be noted that beauty and distinction peep
out of well nigh every feature and the fact
that they're good Republicans would in
dicate that the element of brains Is in evil
dence, too.
That the Cleveland administration has
its eye upon Luzerne and Lackawanna
counties Is being demonstrated daily. The
strenuous efforts made in Lackawanna in
particular to foment disturbance among
Republicans, coupled with their redoubled
inducements to reluctant victims Of the
congressional bee, indicate the existenc :
among the Democratic slate makers of q
condition bordering on panic. The truth
is that the whole bottom has dropped out
Of the Democratic party in this part of
the state and unless something be speedily
DONE there will not be enough left Of it to
make decent pretense Of fight.

IN deciding to make personal tour
Of each of the siXty-seven counties in

cling without cessation until election
day, accompanied by such dlstin-
guished orators as Colonel Thomas J.
Stewart, of Montgomery; City Solici-
tor Warwick, District Attorney Gra-
ham and Charles Emory Smith, Of
Philadelphia; General Reeder, of
Northampton; Ex-Governor Beaver, of
Center; George B. Orlady, of Hunt
ingdon; Congressman Dalzell, of Alle-
gheny; ex-Congressman Mccormick,
of Lycoming, and Major Warren, of
this city, General Hastings gives evi
dence of his superb earnestness and
willingness to endure. The discom-
forts of such tour and its eXactions
are many, and in state which has
within the year cast nearly 100000 ma
jority to the good, such a sacrifice of
personal ease might easily be evaded.
But the present Republican candi-
date for governor of this state is no
lukewarm soldier in the cause of hon
est politics and prosperous govern
ment. Magnifcently endowed by ma
ture to Withstand fatigue, he is hap
PLY possessed Of spirit which courts
hard work and thrives upon indefat-
igable party service. He will make as
thorough a canvass as If the result
were sbrouded in grave uncertainty;
and the plans now in mind contem.
plate the introduction of many speak
ers of national prominence to assist in
the battle. Governor Mckinley, for
example, will speak at Philadelphia,
Pittsburg, and possibly Wilkes-Barre
and Scranton. Senator Sherman, of
Ohio, has promised to deliver two ad-
dresses, one at the state capital. Ex-
Speaker Tom Reed will be heard in
this campaign upon three occasions,
and several of the remaining national
Republican celebrities, including such
superior spell-binders as Congressman
Dolliver and Burrows and Senator
Henry Cabot Lodge, will introduce in
terest and novelty into the canvass.
1t will be seen, therefore, that there
is no invitation to lukewarmness in
the example set by the head of the
ticket, and the model thus put in
evidence deserves to be borne in mind
by each of the various local committees.
With county and state committees and
the Republican State league all work
ing together under the inspiration of a
laudable rivalry each to surpass the
other in point of efficiency and en-
thusiasm, there should be registered
at the polls of Pennsylvania on Nov.
6 a result which will be memorable.

Such Men Are Scarce.

The Philadelphia Press in a we'll
considered editorial upon the Repub-
lican situation in this county says:
"Since the nomination was made the
Democrats have been seeking to mag
Nifty the feeling engendered by the
preliminary canvass, but without the
least indication Of success. Only by a
division of the Republicans could the
enemy have any hope of winning, and
1t is not conceivable that any number
of the Republicans of Lackawanna are
going to assist the Democrats to a VIC
tory in SO important a matter as con-
gresham in year like this. If Mr..
Scranton's competitor for the nomina-
tion had been successful he would
have expected Mr.. Scranton and his
friends to accept the result and give
the candidate cordial support. Hav-
ing been unsuccessful he will no doubt
turn in for Mr.. Scranton with hearty
good will. There is no reason to
suppose that any other course will
be pursued. Under such circum-
stances Republican success is beyond
doubt. 1t is not question of electing
Mr.. Scranton, but it is one Of electing
a Republican member, one who can be
depended upon to act with the Repub-
licans in the next house. That, Mr..
Scranton, whose party fidelity has
never been questioned, will do. For
that reason, if for no other, every Re
publican in the district, and every man
of whatever party faith who is opposed
to Democratic hard times, will give
Mr.. Scranton his support in preference
to aiding the election of a Democrat
and the encouragement of further tar
iff agitation and business disturbance.
Upon that ground the Republicans of
Lackawanna will unite as Republicans
are united all over the country" The
man who sets private prejudices
against general prosperity is public
enemy. Such men are scarce in Re-
publican Lackawanna.

THE WHEEL IN WAR.
PHILADELPHIA Record.

Philadelphia Record
The value which the bicycle will have
as an adjunct to the American army
has been of late forcibly demonstrated.
General McCook had occasion recently
to telegraph from his station in Denver
to General Greedy at Washington "Your
wheeled greeting has rolled more than
two thousand miles over mountain, val.
ley and plain through ten states, and
has ascended to a miles altitude, cover
ing over one hundred days march for
troops and thus accomplishing in six
days one OF the most notable feats on
record in transmitting information by
human power alone over the greatest
space in the shortest time" Upon the
heels Of this feat of the wheel, Lieu.
tenant j. l.. Donovan has convinced
the. war department of the superior
swiftness and utility Of the bicycle for
the courier or scout service by covering
the 100 miles between Cheyenne and
Omaha in hours and 85 minutes. He
was heavily equipped. too for thi. trip.
Now comes news OF the invention by z.
M. Highley, Of Somersworth, N. H., Of u
unicycle, which gives promise of doubling
the speed OF the fastest bicycle. Uncle
Sam will undoubtedly emulate the exam
pie OF the European nations in the estab-
lishment Of army wheel corps.

Take Nothing for Granted.


The tenor Of Republican comment
throughout the state, as reflected in
the various vehicles Of public opinion,
is hopeful and harmonious. 1t is the
general feeling that Republican success
is assured, not only in the state can
vass, but with reference, also, to the
congressional and local campaigns.
We are thankful that this is true. We
are rejoiced to see the party in the
main contented, self-reliant and full of
confidence.
But it is we'll to remember that the
exemplary effects of merely a moder-
ate victory in November would be next
to nothing; and that moderate vic
tory, when an extraordinary one is
within easy reach, is often the price
which party pays for feeling too con-
fident and too secure. If the example
of Vermont, with its instructive cleo
tion returns, is to be not lost upon the
Republicans Of Pennsylvania after
their superb triumph last February,
there will need to be as vigorous, as
careful and as painstaking party effort
in the present canvass as if its results
were actually in doubt. The leaving
undone of any honest duty which, if
done, would contribute to the success
of Republicanism at this juncture
would be not only partisan error; it
would be its possible consequences o
civic crime.
The extinction or those heresies
which have, in less than two years of
legislative application, undone much
of the accumulated benefits of three
decades of unparalleled prosperity is a
duty that calls for honest and COM
plete fulflment. 1t is a dictate OF
patriotism, and an instinct, indeed, of
self-preservation. With reference to it
there is scarcely any room for divided
opinion or indecisive effort. The duty
is clear, palpable and inevitable. II
awaits fulfilment and it gives no op-
portunity for evasion. The call to in
dustrial Pennsylvania is made with
particular emphasis; and it is the mis-
sion of those who hear it to neglect no
fit occasion to make the states re-
sponse correspondingly distinct.

A BATTLE OF PRINCIPLE.
rofisrjle Miner., .Jo,,roal

The purpose Of the Republicans this year
is not simply to beat Candidate Singerly
with phenomenal majority, but to cap.
ture every Democratic stronghold in
which there is anything like an Opportun-
ity for effective campaign work. and es-
pecially to contribute every possible addi.
tion to the quota Of Republican congress-
men. The campaign promises to bring
about practical extinction of tariff re-
form as an issue in Pennsylvania, and
that is why every Republican should take
part in it, regardless OF the certainty Of
the general result.
