The Home Saloon a Success.

The cheerful intelligence comes from
Chicago that the 'home saloon" estab-
lished there several months ago by
Bishop Fallow, and described in these
columns at the time, mas passed the
experimental stage and is now fix
ture. AT the end of the first six months
it was self-supportng; in six months
more a fifteen Der cent. dividend is ex-
pected.
In brief, the "home saloon Is an Inn
proved common saloon minus alcohol.
1t Is a place where men can loaf. smoke,
drink non-intoxicants, read. eat or play
at all harmless games, all at small cost.
The Philadelphia Bulletin, In review
ing the experiment with an eye to its
adoption in Philadelphia, says: Per
haps the first place where the scheme
showed good results was in the cafe.
1t soon began 10 fill UP, not with
tramps. and not so much with laborinS
men as with clerks and business mGn.
who. were glad to have a place where
they could get a clean and wholesome
lunch without being expected to take a
glass Of beer with it. But the :abOring
men did not avoid It. They found shat
the bishops beer, which is made OF
malt and hops, was refreshing with
out any bad after effects and now
many of them drink 1t in preference to
lager. "A valuable feature of the enter
prise Is it's discouragemento Of begging
Books full of coupon tickets are pur-
chased by the charitable, and when
beggar approaches them for the price
of something to eat, they give him one
of these tickets, knowing that II he Is
really in need. he will be well fed and
| 10 he Is a fraud he will not trouble them
again. AS an illustration of the prices
charged. It may be mentioned that Cnc
of these tickets, price ten cents. Is good
for a. piece of meat, some bread and
butter, and glass Of Bishops beer
1t win perhaps be asked whether
Bishop Fallow ought to turn his enter
prise into a money -making institution;
but for our part we believe that he
should. Men do not, as a rule, like to
bask in the kindly light of philan-
thropy. 1t conflicts with their ideas of
independence. If a liquor dealer may
make money out OF the ruination OF
his patrons why should not Bishop Fal-
low make It out of the preservation Of
his? If more so-ca1led charities were
managed with a wholesome view to
s,,,t+in,e, fhern nm a self-e,lp ppOt,tinC basis
their results for good would speedily
multiply. Whatever is worth having
is worth paying a fair price for.

Ar e cclient Opportunity.

1t would unquestionably be misfor-
tune to the city If the Eastern league
base ball franchise now held by the
Scranton club should be sold TO some
rther city. Although the personnel of
she present club may not satisfy pub
iic expectations in all respects. the ad-
vSntages to be gained by representation
in a large and influential base ball
league are paramount. The presence
of a Scranton club in a company that
includes leading cities in New York.
Canada and New England advertises
our city to a degree not possible in the
minor state league, with It's generally
smaller towns and inferior base ball.
1t has not yet been demonstrated that
a good Eastern league club, well man
aged, would not prove profitable in
this city. We say this because the club
last season was neither good nor we'll
managed. During the few brief periods
when THAT club played winning ball
the attendance was as large as in any
cabher city in the circuit, with perhaps
one exception; and THE only reason for
the deficit which characterized the
clubs profit and loss account nt the
end OF the season, apart from unsa.-
isfactory managerial conditions, was
the fact that tihe club did not play ball
as we'll as Scranton audiences have q
right to expect from players hired to
represent this progressive city on the
diamond.
We see no reason why a city that
can, and will, supply an average daily
attendance Of nearly 1000 persons at
well-played games on the home dia-
mond should not have purveyed for It
a be'tter quality of base ball than OBJ
tains In the Pennsylvania state league;
nor why 1t would not be profitable for
a weii-managed club of good players

The Roche-Fahey DuellO.

The interview with Hon. John f.
Roche, in another column, presents the
Democratic situation in this county in
an entertaining aspect. Not that the
Democratic situation in this county Is
matter OF particular consequence, for
IT is not; but such as II is. it is clearly
interesting. with alternating possibilI-
ties of comedy and tragedy juxtaposed
in truly Kaleidoscope fashion.
We do not see that Republicans, in an
affair of this pretty character, are
called upon to do more than look on.
Nevertheless the beautiful spectacle OF
Brother Fahey cutlasSing with one arm
at the dignitied person of eX-Judge
Smith and, with the other, pointing the
long finger of warning at the amiable
Mr.. Roche, while the armed myrmidons
of the various factions circle around,
sounding dlscordant war cries and
brandish!ng their fratricidal scalpinS-
knives. Is one slgnally calculated to ill
the Republican soul with calm. 1t
would be futile to deny that we have

designate the winner. Fahey AYERS
that he has the caput of the distin-
guished jurist beneath his ruthless heel;
and Roche is equally positive that when
the smoke of battle enables the public
to en6merate the delegates, it will be
shown that the energetic ex-sheriff will
have received his congo as the Great
Am of the local unterrifie,. Which is
dallying with the fringes of his veracity
we cannot say; but this we can and do
say: 1t is merry tussle, boys, and
may more blood be spilled.
For of such is the seed Of good Re
publican government.
