SCRANTON, july 20, 1895.
Ne are more than ever Of the opinion
MaaJoseph A. scranton's understudies
do not al the bill.
Cameron, the Real Issue.

Thers aSe two persons. and only two,
who can authorftatNely deny that the
purpose Of Senator Quay In scrambling
for the state chairmanship at this time
is DO further the presidential ambi-
tons ~ Senator Cameron. Those per-
sons are the two senators themselves,
and II u Afghly significant that neither
has yet disavowed such an understand
ing. Until both together unequivocally
repel the accusation the public will
have strong presumptive reason to sus-
pect fhat the same friendly hand which
saved Cameron the last time he was
reelected to the senate, notwithstand-
ing that paSty sentiment was then
overwhelmingly against him. would, If
lit could by a second manipulation Of
the party machinery, repeat the saliva
ton I'm equal indifference to the incli-
nations Of the masses, If not nominate
him for president.
Nor does this suspicion do violence to
any clearly-defned fact. 1t is known,
for instance, that most arbitrarily Sem
ator Quay not long ago told Governor
Hastings that If any Pennsylvania
was named for president 1t would be
Cameron. 1t Is likewise known that in
a letter to an official Of the Pennsyl-
vania Republican league Mr.. Quay sug-
gestef the wearing by the Pennsylva-
MIA delegation at the recent Cleveland
convention of Cameron badge. These
two facts are indisputable. Taken in
connection with the senator's otherwise
inexplicable anxiety to assume the per-
sonal direction of the executive details
of a minor state canvass, upon which
task. by itself, his genius and prestige
would be notoriously wasted, they make
out, to our mind, an irresistible case in
favor of the belief that Senator Quay's
cartridge box is loaded for bigger game
than simply half-dozen state offices,
which, but for the present fight. would
have gone Republican practically by de-
fault.
One Of the main questions before the
Republican party throughout the state
today, perhaps IN view OF ali the cir
cumstances the paramount question be-
fore 1t, Is whether It IS In favor Of turn
ing the party organization over to Mr..
Quay, to.be used by him in a desperate
attempt to place Donald Cameronin the
presidentfa1chair SO long as the Cam
eron purse string was tied about the
throats of our state legislatures, it re-
mafnedS impossible for popular senti-
ment wtth reference to-Mr. Cameron,
to find effective expressioni but now
that' the issue has come fairly before
thene6pfa we indulge in the hope that
the beopieswill speak freely and after
full elaboration, to the end that If
they si1all decide TO dispense with Mr..
Cameroa'S public services, there may
he no &sutdf I'm the fulflment Of their ex-
nreS0e13 desfre.

The Susquehanna county "organixa-
ton" which declares itself for Senator
Quay will probably resemble a last
years chrysalls before the honest Re-
publican voters get through with its
mercenary scheme.

1t Is due to Commodore Sanders zeal
displayed in behalf Of Senator Quay in
yesterdays convention. as we'll as to his
nautical experience gained on the
placid bosom of Lake Ariel, that he
should be given command Of at least
the Lackawanna squadron Of the junior
senator's fleet on Its prospective cruise
up Salt river.

The animus of the recent Quay fight
in this county is outcropping with ven-
geance. We already have Alderman
editor S. s. Jones threatening Judge
Willard with reduced majority next
fall But does Jones own any vote
other than his own?

the development of the velocipede.
which has reached Its present stage Of
Improvement In the bicycle. The re-
cent contest Of horseless carriages be-
tween Paris and Bordeaux has proved
the most interesting event since the in
vention Of the pneumatic tire. Electric
carriages with a speed Of twelve miles
an hour, carrying two passengers. are
in the European market Several
American firms are already manufac-
turing horseless carriages for this mar
ket. AT the Parts exposition OF 1889 the
American electrical exhibit surpassed
in extent. variety and commercial
value the electrical exhibits OF all other
countries combined. But there has not
been a corresponding zeal In the Unit
ed States among electricians for the
purpose Of producing electric vehicles
except in connection with the use of
ra!ls and engines"
We see no reason why the same time
and effort which have successfully
evolved the trolley street car should
not, IL properly concentrated upon the
task in hand. produce an electric car
riage having all the advantages OF the
present horsepower vehicle with rev
Of ITS disadvantages. If the problem Is
soluble, ana we believe 1t Is, Yankee
ingenuity ought to solve Vt.
Representative Moore Is our authority

is true, is a fine compliment to his good
Judgment.

COMMENT OF THE PRESS,
Maccc Laws Down ,bcIaw

From His Plttsburg Times: "There has
been no suggestion Of compromise on the
part of Governor Hastings and his friends,
and there can be none that would involve
the retirement Of Chairman Gilkeson from
the position In which he led the party TO
such unparalleled victory as Ia achieved
last year. Even Senator Quay's retire.
ment from the contest, which his organs
In their desperation have offered, 81
coupled as they demand, with that of
Chairman Gilkeson. could not be accepted
by Governor Hastings. Chairman Gilke-
son has been assailed solely for his sup
port Of the governor in the latter's stand
against Mr.. Quay and his followers In the
apportionment matter. The retirement
of Mr.. Gilkeson would therefore be a d.
rect blow at Governor Hastings himself,
besides being a most ungenerous thrust
at the most successful state chairman the
party has ever had. It may therefore he
set down that there will be no compro-
mise on any such basis. There Is but one
way to settle the trouble with honor, and
that is for Senator Quay to withdraw and
permit Chairman Gilkeson's now reassured
reelection to be q unanimous one."

Quay's twooverwhelmng defeats In Lack
awanna county. following his defeat in
Clearfield. the newspapers which are wag-
ing his campaign of assassination against
the state administration are one and all
crying out for compromise and peace.
The terms Of compromise they propose
are as simple as passing counterfeit
money. State Chairman Gilkeson Is TO be
abandoned by his supporters. and Sena-
tor Quay will then withdraw from the
fight and put one of his lieutenants In Ma
place. This Is the old compromise Of the

gave over eleven ballots for Republican

Philadelphia Bulletin: VERY few Of the
Quay organs In the state care to be sad
died with the responsibility Of carrying
Don Cameron. They find it hard enough
to carry Quay, without being handicapped

they are endeavOring to keep Cameron
