there is nothing wicked in staying away from home all night for the sake of seeing an actress drink sherbet out of a slipper. Neither is it wicked to discuss other mems wives as if they were types of an admirable breed of horses. These things are in bad taste, that is all. They bore the men who in- dulge in them; but they are believed to be wicked, and that is enough. No fools paradise is so we'll peopled as that of the man who thinks he is wicked.
 Poor Vane suggests these things to me. He is perpetually endeavoring to create an impression that he is dissi- pated. He hates to get drunk and sit ting up late bores him, but the unfor tul.ate fellow is the slave of his delu- sions.
 Tuesday-We discussed manner at the club tonight. To discuss manner is to discuss Alton, whom we all deem the perfection of distinction, and hate enviously To compel admiration is a very effective way of getting yourself iislilled.
 As Maehiavelli puts it." began Yane.
 1.-The bone of debate is quotation, in- terrupted Alton; because we discuss a subjectneed we drag in the utterances ol the dead and gone upon the same theme? A lie does not become truth because Swift or somebody else sold il Nittily."
 'But the liars have all the witt de clared Hawkins.
 You're an egotist!" exclaimed Vane. T was about to say that manner is an expression applied to the impoliteness of q well-bred person."
 Really, Vane," said Hawkins, "bor- rowed wit is the poorest wit"
 "1rue," replied Vane. Therefore ] steal mine"
 "But I shan't be made receiver of stolen goods" retorted Hawkins.
 Manner" began Alton, lis sort of currency. It is a medium of exchange between gentlemen and gentlemen. It is no disgrace to lack it, provided we be careful in contracting obligations. The person with manner.enough mere ly for civility should never covet post necessitating distinction. My metaphor implies that we should not attempt too much with the stock of manner we hap pen to be blessed with. You will often see fellow who does well in lowly station do very ill in lofty one. He has not manner enough to ballast him in oeep water"
 1 thought it vain in Alton to talk that way. He has a wealth of manner, and could not become bankrupt were he all emperor.
 "rherefore,' said yane, it is bad taste in man to be always magnif- cent and princeiy in his manner. The monarch is not always on the throne. There are times when manner Is mere ostentation."
 This was meant for sarcasm, and AL ton did not quite relish it.
 You have so much brass about you, yane, he remarked. testify, that I wonder youdonot join the police force'
 T prefer to take you in as private citizen" replied Nane, haughtjly.
 "1ou are insoient, sir, and you owe rie all apology, said Alton.
 Il pay what owe" Nane answered, ccolly, "but refuse to be dunned.'

Time to Awaken.

Republicans cannot afford to let this
years election go by default. They
cannot afford to let their splendid ma
jority OF one year ago be paled by the
succession of a meager one bespeaking
apathy and indifference. Every dictate
OF party prudence and party loyalty
calls for the polling of the entire party
vote.
Republicans in this county cannot af-
ford, by their lukewarmness, TO give the
Democratic enemy false encourage
ment They cannot afford to extend to
their candidate on the state ticket. for
whose nomination they worked and
fought, a support less earnest or less en-
thuS!astlc than he fairly deserves. and
less imposing than the county needs
to maintain its selt-respect among the
other counties Of the state.
Republicans OF Lackawanna cannot
afford to withdraw their support from
the splendH local ticket which has been
nominated this year. The Importance
OF electing fit men to office and en-
oouraging party loyalty is even greater
in an orr year than 1t is in a year
when excitement IS high and when,
from sheer momentum. the. entire vote
1s polled easily and with enthusiasm.
1t Is time to awaken and get TO work.
What fine laugh the Democrats
q T ID
ans should, by indifference, lose a vic
tory clearly within their reach! Get

No Tax on Bank Checks.

The protest OF the Washington Post,
proposition to increase the current rev.
enue Of the government by resort to
the emergency method of stamp tax
on bank checks is forcible and oppur-
tune. The suggestion of this tax, like
that OF the income tax, arises from
the lowest Of class antagonlsms-th
HocdaJsstto envy by those who have
failed of those who have succeeded in
life. It IS of a piece with the mo-
ttves pf the highwayman who aims by
force Of arms to correct inequalities in
wealth which he is too dndolent or too
dneffiuIent TO correct by honest and
patnstaking business endeayor.
10 be sure, 1t Is not true that tax
on bank checks would be a tax felt
by the rich alone; for 1t is a fact cap
able Of easy demonstration that the
volume of the business of our banks
ds furnished, not by the money giants,
but by the Thrifty middle classes. the
men and women of moderate means
who put their spare pennies I'm the
eavings banks rather than In the sa-
looms or gambling rooms. But whether
the burden of such q tax would fall on
those of meams or upon those without
means, 1t would be, in either event,
o short-slghted. vexatious and un-
American tax, tolerable only during
q grave national crisis not now citabie
On ITS justification.
The next congress, in Its efforts TO
overcome the Democratic deficit,
should reject any and all expedients

restoration of recently y-sacriiced pro-
tection to American industry. 1t

upon the restoration OF the schedule

Republicans, to Arms!

The nearness OF election day should
speedily bring an end to the indifference
which apparently exists amorg the
masses to the outcome of the APP
preaching election. 1t viii under no
circumstances do for Republican Penn
sylvanla or for the Republicans Of
LackawarEa county to falier on Nov, 8.
Such a result would instantly be in
terprcted by the Democracy as an evil
dence of popular approval of its ad-
mlnistratlon--an administration which
has called down the worst business
panic in our history, which has run the
government. in time of absolute peace,
into nearly quarter of billion DOL
lars of new debt and which cannot
from it's miscalculated revenues, pay
much more than half the current oX-
penses. We do not believe that either
Lackawanna county or the state or
Pennsylvania wants to give the sem
blance of oncouTlg cement ITO such an
administration We do not believe that
there are many men. even among the
Democrats themselves in this state. who
would care to experience Democratic
times" over again, or who, having fore
seen what the change Of 1892 meant,
would fail to want to change back
again.
1t will be SAID Of course tina; this To-
cal election doesn't decide national is
sues. The Democrats politicians VIII
say this. because II Is to their selfish
interest to have the people forget ma
tional Issues, and overlook Democracy's
horrible m!smanagemento of them. But
intelligent voters Will understand that
the battle of week after next Is really
the opening engagement of next years
presidential campaign. They VIII un-
derstanli that n the Republican party

10 TAX ON BANK CHECKS.

There is nothing In the present condition
OF the national finances. or the relations Of
parties '.horclo. that can nccess!tatc or
jus.ify TIE readoption OF the war tax on
bank checks There are people who favor
this method of increasing the revenues
on the ground thst such a tax would fall
wholly upon the rich." IL this were true
"thc rich. might object TO the proposition
as species of class legislation, similar
to the income tax Undoubtedly "the Tch"

less fortunately situated, but only a small
proportion OF the checks cashed by the

men of small means are bank depositors.
because they have learned that bank
vault Is safer repository for their little
boards than bureau drawer or a bed tick.
To put a tax on bank checks would be
totally unnecessary imposition Of bur-
den on hundred persons Of moderate or
small means for every rich man, whom 1t
would reach.
To justify the revival of this expedient
that was devised under the stress of our
great war. some urgent necessity should
be shown. 1t Is not a sufficient justifica-
tlon to show that the revenues must be
increased. We know that the national In
come is less than the necessities of the
government demand. We know that the
last congress culpably failed to provide
means for carrying on the public business.
The country expects the Fifty-fourth con-
gresS to improve upon the record or the
Fiftythird In this. the most important
matter with which II must deal. But all
this does not call for the readoption OF a
war tax thirty years after the war, in a
time OF profound peace and growing pros
perity.
The additional revenue should be raised
by tariff and not By internal taxation. A
few slight changes in some of the tariff
schedules would afford all the relief that
Is required. That is the direction in which
the taxing power will be employed, Ii the
interests of the people and their govern
ment are consulted. Let us wait till fate
involves us in another war before going
back to war taxes.
