Senator Quay's Probable Choice.

Wilkes-Barre News-Dealer: 1.-THE with
drawal of Congressman Scranton from the
fight for national delegate in Lacka-
wanna county will ease politics up there
for little while at lea2t. When the Re-
publican state convention meets next
spring to elect eight delegates-at-large to
the nat !onal convention, 1t is said that Mr..
Scranton will count on Quay making him
one of the delegates. He may be disap-
pointed, however. Rumor has 1t that the
place has already been promised to the
Hon. Theodore Hart. Of Pittston."
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1895-09-11

We should surmise that nothing would
give out esteemed contemporary, Colo
mel Theodore Hart. keener or more gen.
uine pleasure than to be enabled. as
a national delegate, to vote for Quay
for president. Nor is it improbable
that he will have that chance.

Looks Good for Reed,

Washington Star: "There could be no
more significant indication Of Thomas b.
Reeds presidential strength than the fact
that Senator Quay regards him with
friendliness In that connection. 1t Is not
sentimental regard. Mr.. Quay Is not
given to ebullitions of simple affection In
his political transactions. II Is the cool
headed choice Of keenly perceptive poll
tcian OF the man whose chances look the
best at this stage Of the game"

More Democratic Folly.

There is seldom time when the DEM
ocratic leaders of Pennsylvania are not
up to some nonsense or folly that re-
fleets upon their common sense. Their
latest scheme is to attack the new Su-
peror court i'm the state convention at
Williamsport this week. 1t Is proposed
to embody in the platform to be adopt
ed a resolution demanding of the next
legislature the passage Of an act
| abolishing the new court as a useless,
unnecessary and extravagant append
age to the state judiciary. 1t Is also
proposed that the six candidates to be
nominated for Superior court judges be
pledged that if the legislature abolishes
the court such of the Democratic candi-
dates as are elected will not demand
their salaries. This latter action will
be necessary for the sake of consist
ency. Judges once elected cannot be
legislated out of office during the term
for which they We're elected. Ii the
next legislature should abolish the ,Su-
perior' court the seven judges elected
next November would draw their pay
just the same during the full term for
which they We're elected, although they
might not render any service whatever.
The Superior court is not useless
tribunal, as the Democrats allege. On
the contrary, that court can be a most
useful and valuable addition to the ju-
dietary of the commonwealth. 1t will
relieve the Supreme court of a large
amount of business and enable 1t to
bring up its business to date. which 1t
has not been able to do for many years.
1t is only recently that the Democratic
organs and leaders have attacked the
new Superior court. While the bill
creating that tribunal was pending in
the legislature they favored the Great
Ing of the new tribunal. The present
demand for the abolition of the court
is a device of demagogues. BY declar-
ing in favor of it's abolition and pledg-
ing the candidates not to accept pay
during their term If the court is
aDOllSHeu, tne democratic leaders eX-
pect to make political capital. They
see In this movement the possibility of
electing three or four of their candi-
dates. The people in the agricultural
districts were opposed to the creating
Of the Superior court, and they will be
appealed to to support and aid In the
election Of judges who stand pledged to
vacate and decline the pay of their Of
flee in case the court is abolished
This is the veriest partisan clap-trap
and will not deceive anybody The new
court has been created in good faith
and is a necessary appendage to the
state judiciary. There is no danger
that the next legislature will abolish it.
Neither is there any probability that
more than one Of the Democratic
candidates for Judge will be elected.
The Republican candidates are not
pledged to any such nonsense, al
though, If the court should be abolished,
there is no probability that any of the
Republicans would accept their salary
If they rendered the state no service.
