POLITICAL GOSSIP.

After IN extended and accurate review
Of the causes Of the present fight, the
Wllkes-Barre Times correctly crystailixes
the present issue ~ follows: shall the
Republican party Of this great Republican
state be led around by the caprices Of one
man like bull with Q ring In his nose :?
Most assuredly they will not The young
Republican manhood. the vigorous young
Ameracanism Of the state will repel and
rebuke such Leadership. Nothing was ever
gained by sitting On the fence In any con.
test in which is haSarded . direct interest.
Asa personal tribute to the sovsfnor. In
loyalty TO our townsman. Judge Rice, and
because Il 10 honest end riUht to do 30, the
Republicans Of Lussrne county should
stand bravsly and unequivocally for the
support Of Governor Hastings. He will
surely win - ne ought and We should
share the vietery with him."

An Inconsistent Leader.

We are not aware that the Carbon
dale Leader, which after the Scranton
Penman anti-Willard conference OF
Thursday night in its city. eagerly re-
turns to its self-appointed task OF try
ing to defeat the election OF delegates
form the Fourth district personally
friendly and acceptable to Judge Will
lard. raised objection five years ago
when Senator Watres, then candi-
date for the lieutenant-governorship
nomination, was freely accorded the
complimentary privilege Of selecting
his own delegates to the state conven-
ton. The Leader thinks "the time may
come when the precedent which The
Tribune is now trying to establish Will
prove a boomerang in its own camp"
That, dear contemporary. Is our risk'
not yours: besides, we are not trying
to establish q precedent. The preced-
ent was established with the Leaders
cordial sanction In the case just men
toned.
The sapient Leader continues: I'VE
do not object to Judge Willard's effort
to secure a place on the Republican
state ticket, but simply contend that 1t
would be more in consonance with
party usage, and more modest withal,
to appeal to the people for support In
stead of demanding that delegates Sc
lected by him before the primaries are
held should CO." It is kind in our con-
temporary thus frankly to permit Mr..
wIIlard's candidacy 60 continue; and
for this 1t has our thanks. But when
1t dissents to the proposition that AZ q
compliment to the one candidate before
the next state convention In whom
Lackawanna county Is directly inter.
ested he should be permitted to have
friendly delegation at his back, 1t ut
ters doctrine clearly "Out OF conson-
dnCS WIFI purity uSd6c, ohu s"S'Sio
condemned by its own voice. II Judge
willard had open opposition in this
county It would be another matter. But
with no local candidate running against
him for Judge OF the Superior Court.
why should there be this strange and
unprecedented hesitancy in showing
him the same courtesy which was upon
a similar occasion shown to Colonel
Watres?
The Leader adds: I'VE are opposed
to any such proceedings tooth and nail;
we must be, to be consistent. Whether
IL affects Mr.. willard or any other In
dividual one way or another Is matter
for the least consideration" We have
shown that to be consistent with Its
record In the Watres campaign Il
should not be opposed to any such pro-
ceedIng." Hence. we must suppose
that Its inconsistency springs from op-
position to Judge Willard. whose
friends should govern themselves ao-
cordlngly.

The editor Of the Republican threat
ems, II his wishes are not regarded in
the present fight, to cause an upheaval
in the county and city organization.
This Is a fine BLUM; but 1t does rot
work. The Republicans Of Lackawan-
ma county have outgrown the time
when they regarded Mr.. Scrant IN s
mercenary interests as superior TO
party principle and party welfare.

II Major Penman Is sincere In his
publicly expressed wish to further
Judge Willard's candidacy, let him quit
trying to set up anti-Willard delegates.
Nobody has clothed Penman with the
authority to cancel Mr.. Willard's own
preferences In the matter Of delegates.

A few days ago some of the papers In
Carbondale were greatly exercised be-
cause Scranton politicians" had
chosen delegates for them" What
have these able journals to say con-
cerning the later Scranton Penman ef-
fort to choose competing candidates for
election as delegates In the Fourth dis
trlct? Is that particular brand of
Outside interference" all right?

ment throughout the whole OF Penn

But Is he SO short-sighted - to think
that the self-respecting Republicans Of
Lackawanna county do not recall the
time when. with overwssning Arro-
gance. he set himself up ~ . boss Of
the most dictatarial and unscrupulous
type; and when no man In the county
dared to aspire to political preferment
without first buying his august con-
sent? Talk about liberty Of express
sion and action" When did ]. A.
Scranton ever voluntarily recognize
such a thing?

According to Harrisburg advlces.
Senator Quay has informed his sup
porters that he does not propose to op-
pose the nomination Of any Of the Re.
publicans appointed as Judges on the
Superior court at the Republican state
convention. This Is quite different
from his hostile tone when. few days
ago, he intimated that II he could have
his way Judge Wickham. Of Beaver,
would be the only one nominated by
next months convention. Mr.. Quay Is
evidently beginning to realize that
Pennsylvania Is pretty big state to be
carried around In his vest pocket.

II Major Penman was not setting up
Quay delegates. why did he and Con-
gresham Scranton 60 to Carbondale
under cover Of Thursday night. and.
without Judge willard's knowledge or
consent. and in opposition to selections
already announced by Judge Willard's
friends. try to get candidates to fight
Messrs. Thomas and Young? Does
Major Penman think that his thin pro-
testations Of friendliness for the judges
candidacy before the next state conven-
ton are sufficient to mask his shrewd
Interior purposes? The Republicans Of
Lackawanna county are not thus easily
fooled-not by long shot!
