that causes capital to be withdrawn or

When money lies idle because it cannot

multiply the agencies of commerce and in

CnsccmIy Sarcasm,
from the Wilkes-Barre Record.

FROM the Wilkes Barre Record.
Ha! Ha! Allah il Allah! Now let the
unspeaaable Turk trembe In his harem!
The great City of the Yeast hath spoken
and his doom is sealed. Should the cable
flash the dread news today that u terrific
earthquake has devastated all Turkey,
the cause of the disaster can be easily ex-
planned. 1t will be due to the violent
trembling of the sultan and his minions at
the awful import of Scranton's anathema.
For fully 500 of Soranton's best and
bravest out OF an alleged population Of
100000 have arisen In their awful wrath
and smote the Mussulman hip and thigh
with resolution. The detonation of that
mighty engine of war with which Scran-
ton Is such an adept will no doubt be
heard in the uttermost corners of the
earth. And wherever a bloodthrsty Mo-
hammedan may be, when he hears that
blast of--wind he will fall upon his prayer
mat and supplicate Allah for deliver
ance. But 1t will be in vain, and the mis-
cradle Turk, seeing no hope before him.
can do naught but cover his head with
his caftan and get off the earth.

Governor Hastings.

It Is a fortunate circumstance which
brings to the fore, as the leader and
personal medium of Republican resto-
ration in the chief magistracy of the
commonwealth, man 50 well adapted
in physique. temperament, training
and purpose to the duties of that lofty
position as is General Daniel Hartman
Hastings. Massive, majestic and mag
unanimous, he at once unites the ideals
of the common people, from whom he
sprang, with the necessary require
ments of those who view in public
office, under our system of party Gov-
ernment, duties to party and to party
organization second only to those
duties, the fulfllment of which belongs
to the whole people. ED
General Hastings becomes the gover-
nor of Pennsylvania with free hands
and clean garments. The majority by
which he was chosen, the largest ever
cast in any state in this Union either
in war time or in peace, commits to his
charge a trust far in excess of party
boundaries and commissions him with
a power exceptional even in govern
ment by popular suffrage. 1t is pleas
ing to be able to say, with entire can.
dor, and to have partisan opponents
concur in the statement, that General
Hastings, as a man, is entirely worthy
of that trust.
His record as governor will be await.
ed with an interest on the part of the
people commensurate with the measure
of their personal admiration and with
the magnitude of his opportunity.
Their welcoming of him to office Is
cordial to an uncommon degree; but It
does not forget~to recognize, with kind
ly appreciation, the high personal char
acter of his Democratic predecessor,
who will take with him, into private
life, the esteem even of those who have
most widely differed from him in de-
tails of gubernatorial policy.

The inaugural Address.

OF the four leading topics discussed
by Governor Hastings in his inaugural
address, two are of general scope and
two appeal directly to state legislation.
After a modest and manly introduction
the governor treats at length OF the
first of these larger themes, pausing
only long enough to pay a gracious
tribute to his chivalrous recent oppo-
nent on the minority ticket. He finds
in the last two sweeping revolutions in
national public sentiment, occurring as
they did in opposite directions within
two years, proof not of the insecurity
but rather of the strength and stability
of our form of government, inasmuch
as they indicate the growth OF serious
and Independent thinking among the
people. The tariff question, though, he
regards as settled in its essential prin-
ciples. Upon this subject he shrewdly
says:
While the American wage rate Is almost
aS distinctive feature of our national
system as our Declaration OF independ-
ence or our flag, and protection to our
own industries n settled conviction of our
people, yet conservative judgment will
always demand that legislation upon this
subject be of such a character as will be
just to all sections of our common coun,
try, all industries and occupations, and
that with changing conditions the sched-
ules of protective rates shall be so modi-
fed as to prevent monopoly or oppression
of any class of our people by the power of
aggregated wealth.
The mutually and interdependence
of labor and capital, the interruption of
which, by either, causes so much
trouble to itself, the other, and to the
whole community, are discussed in the
address with particular candor. We
recommend the reading by every one of
that portion of the address in which the
mutually and the separate rights of
labor and capital are clearly defined
We especially bespeak for the following
excerpt thoughtful attention:
The state that permits large aggrega-
tions of capital to be employed should SUR
round the artificial person thus created
with the same restrictions, privileges and
protection, which II gives the individual
Citizen The laws affecting each should
DO just and equitable. The burden of tax

Interest on state Funds.

Senator Kaufman. of Lancaster county,
has introduced n bilN to provide for the
payment of interest on state funds depos-
tied in banks. In speaking of 1t the Phil
adelphia Press says: Interest paid on
public funds should go to the owner Of the
funds-the public-and not to the salaried
custodian. The Bardsley disclosure fur
nishes an argument in favor OF the prin-
clple of Senator Kauffman's bill which
cannot be answered. The city banks are
glad to pay per cent. for the privilege of
having the custody and use of the city's
money. Why should not the state deposit
tories pay the same and pay It, too. into
the state treasury account?"' Upon the
same subject the Pittsburg Dispatch per-
tinently remarks "Why should not the
state prescribe for its own funds the same
rule as for the funds of cities and coun-
ties-namely, that they shall be depos-
tied with n sufficient number of banks,
selecting those which bid the highest
rate of interest In an open competition? ?
We know of no reasons why this should
not be done, except those arising out of
politics"

Tribute of q Former Rival,

From the Philadelphia Record.
General Hastings will enter upon his
exalted station amid the aCclaims of ad-
miring thousands and surrounded by all
the pomp and pageantry which right
fully invest an event of so much public
importance. The Record, for itself and
for its great family, would join the throng
that will shake the hand of the new gov
ernor with cordial grasp, and would
wish, as its Inauguration greeting, that
he may find in the many grateful eX-
perences of the day a pledge that all the
days to come may be days of pleasant
ness and of ripening honors.

How TO Get Good ROn ds.

Philadelphia Inquirer: Some of the
newspapers of the state are mistakingly
urging that the cost of building improved
roads be distributed according to the
benefits conferred upon the property.
There is no method of distributing the
cost which is more unsatisfactory or more
certain to create at an early day wide
spread hostility to any road bill that the
legislature may pass. Besides, TO adopt
such n plan Of distributing the cost is to
cling to the very basis of the old short
sighted system of sellshness which has
prevented road improvements because the
land owner could not see that an expen-
dlture for the good of the community
was for his own good. If we are ever to
have good roads 1t will be when we de-
termine to distribute the cost as widely as
possible and make 1t as light as 1t can he
made upon any individual"

The Wilkes-Barre Records sarcastic
reference to the Armenian protest

American citizens in Turkey and in
deprecating a gross International out

1t is perhaps triile early to forecast
with accuracy the result Of the sena-

since Senator Cameron has decided not
to be candidate and inasmuch as the

late no confidence in saying that the
next senator will be likely to come from
northeastern Pennsylvania.
