The Gold Bond Issue.

From the American.
When the president announces the sale
of $62, 100000 government bonds at price
to net three and three-fourth per cent,
and states that "the arrangement thus
completed, which, after careful inquiry,
appears In present circumstances and con-
sidering all the objects desired to be the
best attainable," he discredits existing
obligations of the nation and lowers our
national credit. He admits 1t to be a fact
that under his administration of the gov
ernment the United States has. in time of
peace, made a loan upon terms dictated
by the money-changers of the Old World.
He prosumes to declare that the American
people, who thirty years ago bore the
enormous burden of a terrible war. are
now in II position where their finances are
in the hands of foreigners He has chosen
that the United States should bow down
before them, and he assumes that the
American people will accept such ma
tional humiliation. He has made a con-
tract by which tho United States mas
sold bonds to foreign money-lenders at
private sale at II price much below the
market, and he has debarrod his own peo-
pie from even a chance to purchase them.

The Peabody Centennial.

The centennial commemoration Of the
birth Of George Peabody will be cele-
brated today on two continents, and
more than 100000, 600 human beings will
be caused to reflect, for a brief time
on the achievements of this greatest Of
American philanthrophists. TO many
of these will probably be suggested a
comparison between the deeds which
make Mr.. Peabody reverenced the world
over and those which have caused the
name of u fellow-countryman who died
worth thrice as much to be used,
throughout civilization, as a synonym
for unrelieved cupidity and dcold-blooded
greed. For, in George Peabody and
Jay Gould the public readily recognizes
accurate personifications of the two
extreme motives which govern the ac-
QUESTION Of great wealth; and in the

Well Worded Common Sense.


Scranton Free Press: We have careful
ly read Mr.. Farr's compulsory education
bill from beginning TO end, and we fail to
find anything in it which interferes with
tlS instruction of children in any school,
public or private, sectarlan or otherwise
in which the parent chooses to have a
child educated, provided the common
English branches are taught Nor can we
see that the parent is deprived of any
right in the children sent to comfort am.
gladden. their homes, saving onIy the
right now enjoyed of bringing them up
in ignorance. For the good of the chill
dren themselves, for the good of the COM
munity and the perpetuation Of our insti-
tutiOns this right, which appears to us is
a PROCLAMATION TO call God given" should
be abridged at once. Some of the oppo-
nents to the bill argue that because the
constitution prohibits the appropriation
Of commonwealth funds for the support
of any sectarian school, the state has no
right to impose an obligation upon the
school to whose support it does not con-
tribute. We cannot see that the state
imposes any obligation upon secular
schools, other than impliedly to teach the
common English branches, which all of
them do. The state contributes nothing
to religious institutions Of charity, and
yet, all the institutions are very properly
under the supervision of the state board
of charities. We have yet to hear an OBJ
lection to such supervision, or that the
smallest right of conscience has been in
fringed upon. We are in favor of compul-
sorry education, and hope that the Farr
bill will be passed.

careers OF both may be found lessons
of lasting ethical value.
To recount the biography of the one
Is to antithetically portray the other.
George Peabody was born at Danvers,
Mass, Feb. IS, 1876. His parents were
poor, and his only education was re-
ceived at the district school. At the
age of II he was placed with a grocer,
and at Is in haberdasher's shop in
Newburyport. When % years old he
was a partner with Elisha Riggs in
Baltimore. In 1927 he first visited Eng
land, whore he settled permanently ten
years later. Withdrawing from the
Baltimore firm in 1SiS, he established
himself in London as Il merchant and
money broker and accumulated a large
fortune. AS one of three commissioners
appointed in lS4S by the state of Mary
credit. he refused all payment, and re-
ceiVed Il SPECIAL vote of thanks from the
legislature of that state. In 1851 he
supplied the sum required to tit up the
hibition. In the following year he sent
large donation, afterward increased
to $4,000, to found an educational in
stitute etc, in his native town of South
DanVers, mow called Peabody) He
contributed $4,000 TO the first Grinnell
Arctic expedition; $l,4OO,OOO to the city
of Baltimore for an institute of science,
literature and the fine arts; $4,000, 900
for the promotion of education, endow-
ment of libraries, etc, in the United
States. From 1862 10 1868, he gave
1850, 600 for the benefit of the London
poor. and in his will he left f1J0000 for
the same purpose; half million in all,
which has been employed in building
dwellings for the working classes. He
died in London, Nov. 4, 1869.
The one lesson 10 be derived from
this career Is that wealth is really Il
public possession held in trust by GER
tain men for the puhlic's benefit. No
man of fine moral fiber would ever
employ it, as did Jay Gould, as a weapon
with which to club the public to come
to his selfish terms. There are men
of large possessions in Scranton who
use their great resources intelligently.
for the public advantage. getting them
selves only a moderate living out of
the trusteeship. There are in our city
also men of ample means who seem
not to have realized their true relation
ship toward the public. If the latter
would study, upon this day. the full
lesson of the hundrcdth anniversary of
| George Peabody's birth, it would help
to solve the problem of the popular
discomfort which is nowadays assuming
it would also tell perceptibly for the
progress of this community.

The Tribune's Platform.

The Scranton Free Press thinks, or
at least pretends it thinks. that The
Tribune wants a heightened, exclusive
common council. a body where all the
members come with their hands en-
cased in kid gloves. and who bring
with them pocket editions of Homer's
Had in the original, SO that they may
enjoy the pleasures of translating it,
while the clerk is reading the ordin-
ances on passage. 1t doesn't want any
ordinary every day men, whose chief
qualification for the office is sturdy
common sense"
Our contemporary, of course, is mis-
taken. Sturdy common sense is pre-
cisely what we do want, and want
earnestly! There are some kinds of
Councilmen, however, whom we do not
want; and we make no concealment in
the premises.
We do not want persistent law break
ers elected to either branch of councils.
We do not want to see men sent to
represent the citizens of Scranton in
responsibility in the municipal govern
ment who boast of their success in
lodging constables, corrupting voters
or packing ward caucuses.
We do not want to see elected to a
place where they will have at their
disposal nearly $35O,OOO of public
money, men whom the private citizen
would not trust ten feet off with ten
cents of his own private money.
we do not take kindly to council
manic candidates who, after spending
considerable sums of money in can
vassing their respective wards, try
when elected, to get their expenses
back, with usurlous interest, from per-
sons interested in pending ordinances,
We admit that we have no partiality
for the type of municipal office-seeker
whose only purpose in getting into
councils Is to get square" with his
enemies or play into the pockets of his
ring hackers or political sponsors.
The matter Of kid gloves and Greek
poetry we are entirely willing to waive.
In fact we doubt II any candidate
| on any local ticket evinces fondness
! for either. But we do not feel well dis
| posed toward the illlterate ringsters
and law-breaking ward heelers who,
| about election time, seem to regard the
office of councilman as something due
to them in consideration Of the costly
interest" which they occasionally
manifest in county or state campaigns.
These remarks are not dictated by
partisanship. They are meant exactly
for whom they fit. And the individual
voter tomorrow ought to cast his bal
lot for the man, be he Democrat, Re-
publican. or anything else, whom they
do not fit, or whom, as between two
evils. they fit the least.
This is The Trlbunes platform; and
this 1t Is prepared to stand by.

For a Greater Scranton.

1t would be a good thing for the well
fare of Scranton If every newspaper
in this city would agree to desist from
the present habit of devoting separate
news departments to the South Side,
the West Side, the North End and to
Green Ridge. This is all one city, with
common interests and aims; and so far
from encouraging prolOngation of the
old-time divisions, it ought to be the
aim of the press ana of those who oc-
cupy public office to weld the various
sections of the city together into Il
more perfect union.
A reform of this character could be
accomplished by concerted effort, faith
fully adhered to, when it could not be
accomplished by one paper or one pub
lie official. alone. The advantages of
such u consolidation would in time re-
fleet themselves in Il lessening OF the
spirit of jealousy now 50 ready to out
crop among the various portions of the
city; and in Il large increase of Scran-
tons prestige abroad. The innoya-
tton would perhaps be resented by
many, for Il time, but those persons
would soon get used TO it and would
eventually, unless we greatly err. be
glad OF it.
Is it only an 'iridescent dream?

Hospital for Consumptiycs.

Representative Grlniths, of Mexican, has
introduced bill to appropriate $l50,0OO to
establish a hospital for the reception and
treatment Of INDECENT persons in the state
suffering from tuberculosis, or consump-
tion where 1t is thought some good can
be accomplished. The bill stipulates that
the site must be selected 1900 feet above
the sea level and where the climatic in
fluences are best. The site Is to be sought
in tho usual way by commission of five
without pay. appointed by the governor,
who must agree on "a place In four months,
subject to the approval of the governor
and state board of charities. The build
lngs must be ready in two and half
years. and the institution Is to be known
as the Pennsylvania sanitarlum.

Ono Grcnt Obstacle.

From the Norristown Herald.
That Scranton editor who has just been
bequeathed $50, 600 by II man to whom he
loaned $500 about thirty-three years ago
cast his bread upon the waters to some
purpose. Notwithstanding his good for

editors to loan impecunious persons hyc
hundred dollars Not that they wouldn''
warmly welcome II bcquest of $5o,oO(
thirty-three years hence, but they haven't

To Discourage Peddling.

Archibald Citizens Harrisburg letter:
Representative Pomeroy, of Franklin
county, has introduced n bill to prohibit
hawking and peddling in the common
wealth without o license. The bill aims
principally at unnaturalized aliens who
are now infesting the state from one bor-
der to the other, misrepresentng their
wares and decelving the people. Mr..
Pmoeroy claims this class of peddlers
during the past year carried at least
81, 600 out of that county alone. In addl-
ton they injure the merchants OF the
state. 1t Is expected by the passage Of
the bill that the license required will pre-
vent these peddlers from operating In this
state.
