1t is no doubt merely a coincidence
that Senator Quay's ballooned predic-
ton, which he knew wasn't within 100
votes Of the truth, was put out day
or two in advance of the Lackawanna
primaries. If Quay was as right as he
is shrewd, what a strong man he'd be!

Tho Teaching OF History.

Philadelphia Press: I'm 1890 William H.
Andrews. as chairman Of the state COM
mittee. prostituted the party machinery
to defeat the popular will, turn down
General Hastings and force Mr.. Delamater
on the party. Senator Quay aided the
movement and that leadership resulted in
the election Of Pattlson as governor. In
1894 the popular will prevailed. General
Hastings and his friends led the party, and
he was elected by 10000 majority. In
1895 William H. Andrews. who has been
sent to the rear, again comes to the front.
again makes war on General Hastings,
again undertakes to defeat Republican
policies and Republican sentiment. and
again manages this crusade with Senator
Quay at his back. Do the lessons of 1890
and 1894 indicate that Republican safety
and success lie In standing with General
Hastings or with his opponents?''

Cannot Justify Ills Course.

Pittsburg Times: when he comes to
talk face to face with intelligent Repuoli-
cans, how can Senator Quay JUSTIFY his
course? He cannot hope to maintain the
silly Misrepresentation Of his newspaper
organs, that he Is merely defending him
self from the attack Of hostile adminis-
tration, when they know that Governor
Hastings filed every seat In his cabinet
with a conspicuous and well-tred Quay
Republican. He cannot appeal for abso-
Lutte dominion In order that he may take
a subservient delegation to the next ma
tional convention for Senator Cameron
as Pennsylvania's candidate for president.
for he dare not acknowledge that that Is
his purpose. He cannot ask votes to re-
buke the governor and sustain his own
position on the great issue Of apportion-
ment for there Is only one right side to
that question. and It Is not his side. A
campaign Of mere Misrepresentation and
low personal abuse of Republican leaders.
backed with lavish expenditure Of money
among the vulgar mercenaries, cannot
win In the Republican party In Pennsyl-
vania."

The Whole rleaning Of Il.

The Whole neaning of It.
Thanks to the intelligence of the read
ing and thinking masses. the real issue
in the present fight. so far as the state
at large is concerned. is generally un-
derstood. Quay has set out to NOM
mate Cameron for president, In the
hope of controlling the federal patron
age. This point he has evaded. but
never denied. When In this city he did
not deny It. Letters from him. to men
in this city, give color to the theory.
To force Cameron down the throats Of
the party in Pennsylvania Quay had to
be undisputed master of the party
machinery. from Lake Erie to
the Maryland line. Hence his break
with Martin. Hence, also. his sudden
fight against reapportionment, which
carried with Il the disposal OF eight
national delegates-at-large And hence.
In conclusion. his desperate and furious
effort To gain the craftsmanship of the
state committee. with the enormous
power this will exercise upon the ma
ticnal delegate elections next year. A
vote for Quay. therefore, can have
under present circums tances. only one
national and one state significance.
Nationally 1t will mean Cameron for
president, with all that that implies;
in state sense. it will mean the pun
ishment of Governor Hastings for hav-
ing tried to enforce ,ne constitution,
and the handing of the state patronage
and the state officials over to Senator
Quay to be hereafter owned by him in
fec simple.
This fight has also significance per-
tanning exclusively to Lackawanna
county. Those who have been in a po-
s.tion to get at the inside facts are
fully aware that the contest against
permitting Judge Willard to select his
own delegates just as Senator Watres
did when he ran for lieutenant COVER
nor, originated not through any
lofty motives of admiration for
Senator Quay nor yet from a
wish to ALLOW the voice of
the party to be heard" but first, in the
vengeance of Congressman Scranton
against Governor Hastings for failing
to appoint ito place on his staff re-
lative who had never served in the
know. is ignorant of the first principles
of military service: second. in the anx-
iety of a number OF self-appointed To-
cal champions of Senator Quay to "get
solid with the senator SO as to be
in line when a new lot of federal ap-
pointments shall be made; and third, in
the combined soreness bitterness and
malice of a coterie of disgruntled back
number politicians who having been
reIegated to obscur.ty by the just ver
dict Of their party. saw in the populari-
ty of Quay's name an unexpected
chance to crawl out OF th5ir collins.
This is the origin Of the
present fight against Judge Will
lard, and this alGo explains why, In
order to protect Judge Willard from
such an ircongruous and untrust-
worthy championship at Harrisburg.
the Judges true friends have been COM
PEELED to wage war in his preserva-
tion.
