QUAY sNlFFs DISASTER.


Senator Qnay vas Interviewed Sat
urday evening at his home IN Beaver,
Pa. II am not given to discuss
national candidates. said Mr.. Quay
decisively, but l have no objection
to stating my opinion on the issues of
the next presidential canvass. l
would consider it improper for me to
discuss the doings of various gentle
men in New York City at this time,
and have nothing to say as to oandi-
dates or politics that will be played at
the convention. But | will say that |
think the Republican editors and
leaders are making grave mistake in
allowing the Democrats to push the
silver issue to the front.
"The Democratic party leaders and
rank and file are far from being a
union on the tariff question. Many
Of these politicians who favor the
presidents tariff reform program are
not as enthusiastic in their support of
it since the last election. They do
not know today what to say on the
question in their next platform. But,
divided as they are on the tariff, their
confusion on the silver question ap
proaches that of Babel. Representa-
tives of the party in every state Of the
union have each one a different solu.
ton Of the financial question. Having
fostered the Populist craze as a
parasite which they thought would
feed on Republican vitality, Mr..
Cleveland finds it fattening on the
Democratic body the whole country
over. Heie is where the Republicans
have made their mistake by trying tc
fight the free silver question veal
ahead. They have taken up an issue
on which they are almost as hopeless
| ly divided as are the Democrats
instead OF clingiug to the tariff idea
on which they are practically united
Then they allowed the Democrats tC
call away public attention from tht
subjects on which Democratic tenden
cy was SO clearly revealed. Talking
silver, the Republicans have drifte(
from solid ground to an unknown
sea"

The wide tire bill, introduced in the
legislature by Representative Harvey,
of Luzerne county, passed finally last
week and is now in the hands of the
Governor. 1t provides as follows:
Section I. That all persons who

on the public highways Of the com
monwealth with tires not less than
iour inches in width for hauling loads
of not less than two thousand pounds
weight shall for each year after the
passage of this act receive rebate of
one fourth of their assessed highway
tax, provided, however, such rebate
shall not exceed in any one year FIVE
years labor on the highways for road
or highway tax or its equivalent in
cash 70 any one person.
Section 2, Amy person complying
with the provisions of section one Of
this act who shall make and subscribe
to an affidavit that he, she or they has
for the preceding year owned and
used only such wagons with tires not
less than four inches in width for haul

highways of this commonwealth shall
be credited by the supervisors of high.

which such tax is levied and assessed

person. Such credit shall not exceed
in any one year five days labor on
the highways for road or highway tax
to any one person or its equivalent in
cash and any supervisor of highways
is hereby authorized to administer
such oath.
Section 8. All acts or parts ol
acts inconsistent with the provisions
OF this act are hereby repealed.

CHAIRMAN WRIGHT ON STATE
POLITICS.

Robert E. Wright Esq, Chairman
Of the Democratic State Committee,
was recently interviewed, He says
he has no idea who will be nominal
ed by the Democrats for state
treasurer. He will shortly call a
meeting Of the state executive COM
mittee to fix the time and place OF
holding the state convention. The
time for the convention will be some
where around September IS. Talk
ing Of the record made by the Repub-
lican legislature, Chairman Wright
says the results will be beneficial to
the Democratic party, speaking poll
tically. The recklessness, vicious
legislation and squandering of the
public moneys will arouse the better
class OF Republicans and may create
a strong independent movement in
the future in their ranks.
Asked what he thought of the pro.
posed "Lexow investigation of
Philadelphia, Mr.. Wright said he felt
sure that the independents of Phila-
delphia, especially the Citizens mum.
clpal association, was in earnest and
meant to push ahead the investigation.
He was inclined to think, however,
that the delay Of Chairman Andrews,
OF the "Lexow committee, in
formally accepting the offer of the
Municipal association of $40, 900 for
the use of the committee, was indi-
catlve OF insincerity among the friends
of Senator Quay.
Chairman Wright does not favor
the suggestion recently made that the
Democrats should nominate more
than one judge this fall for a seat on
the superior court bench. He thinks
by naming more than one candidate
unless bitter local fights of the differ.
ent candidates would result among
the Democrats with no probability of
electing more than ore Judge anyhow.
The chairman says he does not know
whom Governor Hastings will name
as the Democratic representative of
the new Bench. He thinks, however,
the selection should not come from
Philadelphia, but from some other
portion of the state, especially from
some Democratic locality. When
asked whether he thought the Demo
cratic convention should nominate
the minority judge whom the governor
VIII appoint this Summer, Mr.. Wright
SAID, "not necessarily So" If the
appointee fills all the requirements of
ability and popularity he should be

The Supreme Court of Pennsyl-
vania has just taken the point off an
exceedingly fine construction of the
Sunday treating law. One Sunday
two years ago, just before election,
when the police were especially
vigilant, a resident of Quakertown
visited two friends and gave each one
a sip of whiskey from pocket flask
which he carried. He was arrested,
convicted, and sentenced to fine and
Imprisonment on the ground that
while he might have given the whiskey
to friends in his own house, it was un-
lawful to furnish it in the home of
another. The man was a prominent
citizen and managed to escape the
Imprisonment, but paid the fine and
appealed the case. The Supreme
Court has just reversed the decision,
and declares that it is lawful for a man
to treat his friends to a drink on Sun
day in any placc.-E.c.

A Partisan Dilemma.

The Republican managers in the
East are still in much doubt as to how
the silver cat may jump. Hence they
are extremely anxious to prevent the
party from committing itself by any
forma! and positive declaration against
or for the free coinage of silver until
they can ascertain which side is likely
to win. But they will not be permitted
to sit on the fence while the silver
controversy is raging among the
people. The representatives OF the
bonanza miners who are fastening to
the convention of the National League
OF Republican Clubs at Cleveland will
insist upon plain declaration in favor
of free silver coinage. At the same
time some Republicans in the East
will earnestly demand that there shall
be neither compromise nor tempo.
rizing with the champions of cheap
money.
This is the dilemma which causes
so much embarrassment to the Repu-
blican politicians. The manly, straight
forward and wise course would be to
put the Republican party squarely on
the platform of sound money, and
have done with it. But the ominous
threats that come from the Rocky
Mountains and the fear of popular
fanaticism for free silver coinage FIJI
the Republican leaders with irresolu-
ton. In their distress they will
endeavor to persuade the League of
Republican Clubs at Cleveland to
totally ignore the silver question or
take refuge in declaration for inter
national bimetallism. The gathering
at Memphis to day will show how
much contempt the free silver mongers
have for such declaration. In the
meantime the irresolutlon of the
Republican leaders on the currency
question increases the confidence and
courage of the Silverites.
There is no ignoring the danger
with which the free silver question
threatens the Democratic party. But
the Democrats are playing no game
OF hide-and seek with an issue of so
much importance to the country.
Those among them who favor free
silver coinage have at least the merit
of sincerity and frankness in defining
their position. Friends and foes
know just where they may be found.
The open, above board discussion in
the Democratic party throughout the
country promises the most ausplclous
result in solution of the question in
favor of honest money before the as
sembling of the Democratic National
Convention in 1896. The lodging
and irresolution of the Republican
leaders, on the other hand, daily
Increase the embarrassment of their
party. A failure of the convention of
The Republican League of Clubs at
Cleveland to meet the issue would
greatly discourage the friends of sound
currency, and encourage the Silverites
IN equal degree. But it has been
suggested that these Leagues have
noihlng to do with questions of politi
sal principle, and this is not improba.

character OF such organizations -

Let us throw ourselves with all ardor
into the future.
But how do we use our time? O, you
men who spend your leisure moments in
the saloons where you hear nothing but
the vilest, accursed and damnable
language, you who spend your time in
gambling houses and worse hels think
that you are spending your time, not for
yourselves, but for hell. The young man
offers his bride not wealth and perfect
manhood, but poverty and a broken
down constitution. 1t is not necessary
10 SOW your wild oats" Hundreds of
thousands of noble men never did Save
your money, save your health, make
yourself man. The women too often
engage in idle conversation, circulating
ISLANDERS; ;detracting, calumniating others;
parading the streets, bringing Disgrace
and diahonor upon their families, all
through wasting time.
Have you no object in life but pleas
ure? Have you 30 immortal soul to
save? | do not mean to cay that you
ehaIl have 20 pleasure, but, for tho sake
of Almighty God, give some of your
leisure moments to God. Study the
doctrines OF the church Read the
Faith of Our Fathers" by Cardinal
Gibbons, and "The Catholic Belief" BE
able to tell those who are not within the
church of our doctrines.
The speaker told how girls would
sometimes lie, saying they needed money
to pay the confessor, giving a false
impression to Protestant employers
The congregation laughed heartily, and
the speaker denounced such calumniat-
ing of the church. If all should know
the truth, all bitter feeling against the
Catholic faith will cease. Give your
leisure moments TO study. Give up
the saloons ana other vices that damn
your soul to hell. Better give all your
time TO God than lose eternity. lou

when the angel of death will visit you.
