FROM WASHINGTON POST.

The Kentucky people viii probably hold
their noses when Mr.. Breckinridge begins
to hold his meetings.
II is true that Mr.. Whitney Is not sit
ting on the edge OF his chair. but at the
same time we believe 1T can be arranged.
III Mr.. Olney has n firm grip on the tail
of the British lion we can see no objeo :ion
to him proceeding with the twisting pro-
cess.
Ii is suspected that Croker's desire to
give the Democracy n Crokerless party is
but feigned.
The public is under obligations to Carl
browne for delightful and unexpected
period of silence.
y great many men manage to hide their
own defccts by constant clamor for re-
form on the part of their neighbors.

In deciding whether it is worth while
to so to the polls week from Tuesday,
the voter should take trial balance of
his personal accounts under Republican

there is a balance in favor of free trade

justified in declining to take the trouble
to come out and vote.

| foreign war. Her Intervention in the
Venezuelan dispute is not warranted
by any treaty or precedent In interna-
tional law, and can only be defended
on the ground that the Monroe doc
trine henceforth will be acted upon
as governing all the foreign policy of
the United States. And what is more
serious Is that 1t is not the Monroe
doctrine pure and simple, but that
doctrine with developments. Her ac-
| ton means that the weaker states of
America can count upon the assist
| disputes with any European colony.
The present action undoubtedly does
not go any further than the friendly
| suggestion that we refer the question
to arbitration: but it is backed and
supported by claims which logically
point to a declaration that interfer-
ence with the frontier claimed by Ven
| ezuela will be regarded in Washington
as a declaration of war against the
United States. This is serious af-
front, and it is feared that it is not
appreciated at its proper value in
Downing street"
The article sums up the sltuati by
saying that Europe must understand
that the people of the United States
are decided. first of all, to prohibit. If
necessary with the bayonet and rifle,
any extension of European domination;
secondly, that popular sentiment in
the United States enthusiastically fav-
ors every insurrectionary movement
which aims at the removal of a Euro
pean flag from American soil" To
this last indictment Americans have
no recourse but to plead guilty. In
fact, they are both guilty and glad OF
1t. The tolerance of any foreign flag
on the soil of the western hemisphere
is a Yankee courtesy. We should have
abundant justification and probably
enough strength to pull them all down,
and then keep them down. 1t isn't
expected that Europe would appland
such a view of American responsibility;
but the applause of Europe is one Of
the things tha. Americans can get
along without.
The meaning which the layman will
derive from the opinion of Judge Arch
bald granting Louis a. Behle of Arch
bald. a new trial, is that the courts
of Pennsylvania are intended for the
fortifcation of technicalites rather
than for the dispensation of justice.
If the honorable court can stand it to
have such an impression created, The
Tribune has nothing further to say.

ONE SCHEME 10 AVOID.
From the Philadelphia Press

There is one proposition that will come
to many kupubhCans in all parts OF the
state against which they should be on
their guard. 1t will be proposed by friends
of some of the Democratic candidates to
trade votes on the pretense that IL IL Il
mere complimentary proceeding. lndica-
tonS Of this are already apparent. The
situation this year makes 1t much easier
than usual TO work such a scheme. There
can be elected but one Democrayc mem
Der of the Superior court out Of the six
candidates of that party in nomination.
Each one of the six candidates has friends
who are particularly anxious 10 put their
taNoritc ahead OF all others and secure
him the one chance They will make every
sacrifice In most instances. They will ap-
prOach Republican voters with the slick
assurance that the Republican candidates
are safe anyway, but they will be willing
10 give vote for fa"orite Republican.
If the Republican citizen will return the
compliment by voting for some designated
Democratic candidate. In some Instances,
II VIII be found, votes Will be offered for
Republican candidates OH the local ticket
as a swap for votes for a Democratic ju-
dicial candidate.
Republicans would gain nothing, OF
course, by accepting these offers to trade
which violate the spirit If not the letter
OF the bribery laws. No citizen can vote
for moro than six candidates for Superior
court judge. and any Republican who
votes for one OF the Democratic candidates
must cut one OF his own party nominees
in order TO do IT. Doubtless II H. safe
enough to assume that an the Repubh-
can candidates viii he elected, but It
would not be safe if Republicans every
whore accepted all the Democratic prcpO-
sitions to trade votes. or to give compile
mentary votes to Democratic candidates
In one section one candidate would run
away behind his associates, and IN an
other section some other one would he
made the victim, so that when the votes
were counted IT might be found that in
stead OF one Democratic Superior court
judge elected there were several.
-
No such result can he desired by Re-
publicans. and In every county there
should be determined refusal to he
victmiZed by such a scheme. The friends
Of one Republican judge should stand
faithfully by all the other candidates on
the ticket exactly as they expect the
friends OF the others to stand by their
favOrite. In close counties the tcmpta-
tion TO trade for votes for candidates for
these Offices are thought more OF than the
whole effect of a state election. but no
consideration should be strong enough 70
persuade any Republican to participate
IN what would he merely a corrupt ar
rangement, and which skilfully worked
by the opposition may result In defeating
one or more, and not impossibly q maior
lty of the Republican candidates. Let the
Democrats determine themselves, and by
their own unaided action, which OF their
six candidates they want TO elect. There
Is no reason why any Republican should
cut one of his own party TO help a par
ticular Democrat.

Stand By the Whole Ticket.

II is to be expected that the Demo-
cratic organs will erlaavor 10 make
light Of the interests involved in the ap-
preaching election. because If they can
succeed in getting a considerable num-
Der Of Republicans to ignore party lines
and cast complimentary votes for per-
sonal friends on the Democratic ticket,
they may capture a number of close
counties, reduce the Republican plural
ity In the state-at-large, and convey the
impression to the people of other states
that Pennsylvania Is becoming salts
fed with Democratic rule. Hence we
are prepared for the argument of the
Scranton Times that Lackawanna Re-
publicans ought TO neglect their own
faith in order to aid the enemy
We do not think. however, that many
Republicans will take this advice. For
one thing. their respect for Judge VIII
lard ard their desire to advance his cam
'lidacy will restrain them from scratch
ing the name of any of his colleagues on
the Superior court ticket. They will re-
alize that while they have a special in
terest in securing for their d!stin-
guished home candidate as large a
home Endorsement as possible. they are
also interested in proving Lackawan-
mas loyalty to the entire Republican
state and local ticket, and incidentally
in disprovlng certain expressed suspic-
Ions that :herc Is lukewarmness within
their ranks. We fancy that 1t Is by this
time well understood that Judge Will
lard is anxious for the welfare of the
whole ticket, and that the best act of
friendship for him will be to accord to
that ticket enthusiastic and unstlnted
support.
Another reason which will incline the
Republicans Of this county to resist the
seductive overtures of the Democracy
Is the nearness of the present canvass to
next years presidential battle. Any de-
fection from the expected Republican
majority in Pennsylvania, though due,
In fact, to local trading. would natur-
ally be interpreted by the country as a
wavering in the states devotion to Re-
publican principles. 1t might exert q
most damaging influence on the next
congress, discouraging the proposition
of needed changes in the present unsat-
isfactory tariff, arl encouraging the
presentation Of amendments even worse
In effect than the law as it now stands.
This Is a good time for Pennsylvania
Republicans. and for all other Republi-
cans, to stand firm. They have nothing
to gain and possibly much to lose by
entering into any dickers or deals
with the enemy.
