With the sudde' and entirely unsx-
J ected death OF Secretary Gresham all
hard feelings towards him were buried,
his mistakes forgotten, or at least over
looked and everybody who had ever
known the man could recall some pleas
ant trait of the personal geniality which
made him easily the most popular man
personally in the cabinet. 1t is mat
ter of deep re, ret to his warmest per
sonal admirers that he ever became sec
retary of state. He had ability enou-h
to have successfully administered the
office. but his education, temperament,
pre- ious life and modes of thought were
all so many stumbling blocks IN the
way of his doing 50. This is not time
to criticize his career at the head of that
department, but his most partial friends
do not claim 1t to have been tbs success
his judicial career was.
Some people got a little mixed up
aboct the length of time within which
Mr.. Cleveland would DO compelled to
select the successor to the late Secretary
Gresham. The old law said the presl,
dent could appoint an acting secretary
for period of only ten days, but IN
1891 the law was amended TO read AS
follows: "a vacancy occasioned by death
or resignation must not be temporarily
filled for a longer period than thirty
days" Thus it will be seen that Mr..
Cleveland having designated Assistant
Secretary Uhl to act as secretary OF
state has thirty days in which to select
a permanent secretary of state. Only
one thing appears to be certain about 1t
at this time, and that is that Mr., Cleve
land will endeavor TO use the vacancy to
strengthen his financial policy. Some
of those who are being discussed as
eligible for the vacancy are impossible
ties. One of these Is ex- Secretary Whit
ney, who very positively declined to be
come a member of Mr.. Cleveland's
second cabinet when it was being formed.
Mr.. Whitney may, if lie decides to be-
come candidate for the democratic
nomination next year, be willing to ac,
cept all the support the administration
cares to give him, but he is far too
smart to become a member of the admin
istration; he knows too we'll the odium
it has earned.

WASHINGTON, May 81, 1895.
Republicans have not lacked import
ant conversational topics this week.

speech of Senator Sherman, which
strongly indicates that the republican
party intends TO maintain It's friendly
position towards silver and not follow
MIR. Cleveland's lead in worshlpping at

Then came the harmonious action of the
OHIO republican convention, IN nominal
ing a winning ticket, adopting a plat
form that all good republicans can stand
upon, aid endorsing ex Gov Foraker
for the Z. S. senate and Gov. Mckinley
for the presidential nomination. Gov
Mckinley may or may not be the national
standard bearer of the republican party
next year. but the Ohio convention made
1t plain that he Is to be earnestly pushed
in the national convention by his own
state.
Another topic much discussed by re
publ ,ans is the "harmony" dinner Civ

New York home, IN honor of exPresi-

business Improving

One of the most encouraging features
during the past week has been the con
tinuous tendency to rising wages, says
saws the Minneapolis Tribune. The
great Cambria Iron Company announced
an advance in all departments of 10 per
cent. This will affect 5000 men and
increase the pay rolls of the company
$4,000 month. l. goes without say
ing that there must have been an i'm
provement in business to enable the
company to venture upon such a radi-
cal addition its expenses. There are
numerous minor instances illustrating
the Improved condition of labor. Brad

turing Industries at rs cities east OF the
Rocky mountains show that more than
227 important manufacturing conce ms
started up between April LIST and the
last OF May, by reason Of which $4,000
employees have secured work, Within
the same period the wages of no fewer
than $4,000 industrial employees have
been advanced on an average 10 per
cent.
Wheat, cotton and other staple articles
have continued strong at the advance.
There have been numerous speculative
attempts to break wheat prices, but they
have met with only temporary success.
We have witnessed healthy rise in the
market without any indications of great
scarcity, as supplies seem to come for
ward freely to meet all demands. The
public has simply awakened to the fact
that number of products are worth
more than they have been selling for,
and are investing their money in them
This, and not financial legislation, is
what creates rising prices, and tie same

A Cure for Traction Strikes.

Tho usuol consequences have, in Phil
ade,phia. attended the efforts OF the
street cal, employees to better their con-
dition by striking. The occasion OF an
Intentionally peaceful strike has been
seized upon by hOodlums and outiaws'
for the letting loose of the violence ana
lawlessness that are in them; and for
n time mob rule has threatened to
s,lpplant law and order. The leaders
of the strike forewarned their followers
of the need of abstaining from viola
,tions of law and have. since disorder
befel, sought to the utmost limits OF
their ability to reDress and allay 1t;

This is unfortunate for all concerned,

methods have made the disturbance
possible. If its property Is destroyed,

COMMENTS ON THE MESSAGE.
America for Americans.

Washington Star: President Cleve-
lands message to congress on the Vene-
zuelan question is one Of the most Wig
OrOus and patriotic state papers that ever
emanated from the executive mansion.
The message and correspondence display
evidence of earnest thought and the an
swers to the British contentious are WELL
weighed and convincing. The correspond
ence in the case resembles the arguments
of counsel in legal proceedings. The presi-
dents message is the judges charge to the
jury, composed of the members of con-
gress as representing the people of the
United States. In the light Of the charge
1t is difficult to see how any verdict can
be rendered In favor Of Great Britain and
her pretence of believing that the Monroe
doctrine does not apply to the present
case. So far as America Is concerned there
is no possible question as to the result.
The president will be commended for his
firm, patriotic tone and upheld in his po-
sitiOn by every American who believes
that the time has come for insisting upon
a recognition Of the United States in all
matters affecting territorial acquisitions
in this hemisphere. There is no jingoism
in the presidents message neither is there
weakness, or cowardice, or 'supine sub
mission The answers to the points of
Lord Salisbury's reply are plain and direct
and the president wastes no words in
Qufbbling over technicalities, but grasps
the situation in a broad, patriotic spirit.

Too Much MaWkishness.

II the Board of Pardons has at times
been unduly generous in its exercise OF
the pardoning prerogative. 1t is, on the
other hand, clearly entitled to credit
for it refusal to interfere with the nor
NAL course of the law in the celebrated
case of John Bardsley. Admitting
what as fact few persons deny--that
Mr.. Bardsley was in part the victim Of
q lax system which bred in its admin
istrators a sense of moral indifference,
that in no degree obscures the fact
that in grievous manner he trans
gressed the law, and that for this trans
gression he has been justly sentenced.
Bardsley in prison is not simply
punished criminal: he Is also a warn
ing. His presence in the penitentiary
is a standing notification to public SER
wants in Pennsylvania Of what may be
expected to follow their own discovered
deviation from the chalk mark Of Of
fetal rectitude. To permit personal
sympathy for this one offender to sug-
gest TO other potentially dishonest pub
1ic servants that if they shall likewise
give vent to their evil inclinations. pun
ishment, If any, will be brief would be
to subordinate the interests of every
decent citizen of Pennsylvania to the
comfort Of one justly condemned con-
Vict. Such an exercise of the pardoning
power would have been, not mercy, but
mawkishness. .,
What is true of Bardsley in this case
is true In many cases involving other
types of crime. Only last week in our
own county man duly convicted of
murder in the second degree, without
mitigating circumstances. was sem
fenced by the president Judge Of the
Lackawanna courts to a term Of i'm
prisonment scarcely longer than would
be meted out, in many courts, to the
sneak thief or the burglar Such len
1ency as this is more than mistaken;
It is angerous-dangerous to the Grim
3nal, whom 1t fails to impress with the
enormity Of his crime; and dangerous
TO the community, in which it rather
encourages than reDresses the spread
of similar crimes. One of the urgent
needs Of the times is for stiff-necked
Judges and pardoning boards with back
bone. The era Of sentimentalism has
gone quite far enough. sea"
