To Please Him.

A great many stories are told of the
jealousy and ill-feeling among the mu-
sicians, but not always are the tales so
full of good -humored appreciation If
the state of things as is the following,
told by the Argonaut: Rossini, walk
ing one day on the boulevard with
the musician Braga, was greeted by
Meycrbccr, who anXiously inquired
after the health of his dear Rossini.

"a headache, sidcachc and n leg |

on, and BraGa asked the great COM
poser how it was he had suddenly be-
come SO unwcll. Smilingly Rossini re-
assured his friend. 'Oh, couldn't be
better; I only wanted to please Meyer

Hastings for President. .

According to the New York cores
| pondent of the Buffalo News, there is
| ''very little doubt that if Morton be not
nominated on the fourth ballot at the
next. Republican national convention,
New York's vote will go to Governor
Hastings of Pennsylvania, if Platt can
throw 1t there" This Dis probably not
| to be regarded as an official announce
ment. 1t is trfle early yet for au-
thOritative assertions touching the in
tentions of the president-makers. But
| the fact that New York Republicans
already feel disposed to consider the
presidential chances of Pennsylvania s
| governor in a contingency, is in itself
of sufficient interest to deserve more
| than passing attention.
1t is generally conceded THAT the
contest for the Republican presidential
| nomination next year will be a spirited
one, in which it is altogether probable
that the chief factors at the outset
will in the course of a number of bal
lots destroy each others chances and
thus render expedient the selection of
an available compromise candidate.
Under such circumSt ances, the claims
of Governor Hastings, in case they
shall be presented to the convention, as
now seems likely, will be worthy of
serious consideration. During the past
few days Governor Hastings has been
making the acquaintance of prominent
Republicans in other states. His speak
ing tour in Ohio has n continuous ova-
.tion, the reception accorded to him at
every point being of the most enthus-
iastic character. Although a young
man, he has already attained national
dimensions and i'm the event Of his nom
ination for president next year would
make an irreproachable standard bear
eT.
Under the circumstances 1t will be
we'll for Pennsylvanians to prepare
themselves for the putting forth of a
strong effort to secure for one of their
own number the honor of leading the
approaching national battle for restor-
ed prosperity. The signs of the times
seem to be shaping themselves auspic-
iously for such an enterprise,

The Reflection OF Pingree.

For tho fourth consecutive time
Mayor Plngree, of D9triot, has demon
atrated his popularity as a candidate
for municipal Office, his latest plurality
1oing by far his largest One OF the
singular things about Pingree is that
ne has apparently tllrived on opposi-
tion. He has successfully braved the
combined newspaper press of Detroit,
the leading corporations and most Of
the professional politicians. The worse
they have abused him the stronger he
seems to have become. Like the late
Carter Harrison in Chicago, and in
some respects not. unlike Theodore
Roosevelt in New York. Mayor Pingree
represents the dominance CT a brave
and intrepid personality.
The lesson Of his continued ascend
ancy appears to he that 1T pays n man
in public life, when he has duty to
do, to do it, openly and fearlessly, and
trust to the inmate good sense of the
American people to discern and oppre-
ciate sincerity and sand" In an age
when many men contrive to float along
by adept hedging. trimming and plant
diplomacy 1T does one good to note
the occasional prominence, here and
there throughout the country, of men
like Pingree, who have within them the
stuff that goes into resolute and virile
manhood. Such men may make mis-
takes and do many things that are
wrong, but they rarely forfeit the peo-
pies respect or fail to win the ap-
plause which is commanded by robust
and rugged honesty of purpose.

Paving Pensions with Bonds.

Representative Stone of Allegheny has
proposed a novel solution of the pension
problem, concerning which congress will
soon he asked to take action. OF the
S135, 1000, 900 now annually disbursed in
the form of pensions, Colonel Stone
would, while government revenues are
low, pay only s35,OOO,OO0 or so in cash.
The other 800, 100000 he would pay in
five or seven-year two per cent. gov
ernment bonds. redeemable at will. In
speaking recently Of this proposition
Colonel Stone said:
II believe that such a scheme would
be practicable, especially II the bonds
were given the same standing as other
United States securities and could be
used by national banks as the basis Of
circulation. would not give the bonds
direct to the pensiOner, but issue him a
certificate which would call for n bond.
ed at the banks, and have no doubt
would command a small premium.
would provide a sinking fund of not less
than s1O,O00,O0O year for the eventual
redemption of these bonds. AS the
years went on the amount of pensions
would gradually grow less and in time
the sinking fund would be ample to
meet the bond issue. Iwould treat PEN
siOns as a war debt for another genera
tion to pay"
The principle herein involved does
not differ from that which induces
municipalities to bond themselves for
improvements which coming genera
tions must pay for. The succeeding
generation will owe quite as large
a debt to the veteran soldiers
Of the civil war as is owed
by this one; and 1t would seem to
be common Justice to let It pay its share.
The only drawback to the scheme is the
sentimental one that 1t looks upon its
face like an attempt to avoid an obli-
cation which 1t should be a pleasure
rather than a duty to assume.

1r. Bartl Elected.

Although late returns yesterday de-
creased the plurality of Mr.. Bartl
which, on Tuesday night, seemed to
have reached nearly 1900, the reduc-
ton has by no means imperilled his
election. The influences massed against
his candidacy represented to a large
degree the bigotry and intolerance of
the county, to which was added, in the
last stages of the campaign, the machi-
nations of those alleged Republicans
who during the past few years have
held together chiefly for the purpose Of
aiding the Democracy.
The failure of this coalition to defeat
MIR. Bartl will form welcome news to
every fair minded citizen. In point Of
Intelligence and personal character the
Republican candidate for county sur
veyor was clearly the peer of any man
on the ticket. His rise to professional
eminence was wholly due to his own
industry and capability. The fact of
his having been born in another coun-
try, If established as bar to promo
ton in this country, would simulta-
neously rule out of the full privileges
of American citizenship thousands of
the best men in every state in the
American Union--men who are as truly
American in their ideas. inspirations
aNH purposes as are any of the descend
ants of the Pilgrim Fathers.
The Tribune does not hesitate to say
that the onslaught upon Mr.. Bartl be-
cause of his nativity was disgrace to
Lackawanna county, and a personal
humiliation to every man who had
hand in it. The time has not vet come
in this land of liberty for narrowed
apostles of political prescription to
thrive in their nefarious work; and we
trust that it may never come.
The vote for Judge Smith in LuZerne
and Lackawana counties Is a hand
some compliment in any event. 1t
was almost wholly personal tribute,
in the casting of which party lines We're
ignored. The element of local pride
has been proved by this election to be
n commanding influence, and it Is one
which reflects credit upon this COM
munity.

mitting the crimes attributed +.


Holmes"
The theory which IS supposed to un
derly our criminal courts Is that man
is to be regarded as innocent, despite
newspaper clamor and the exploiting
of detective itching for notorlety, until
he is proven guilty. In capital offences
IT is expected that the proof will be
clear beyond a doubt. In the Holmes
case the evidence was wholly circum-
stantial and there were many gaps be-
tween the presented facts which the
jury, i'm order to reach verdict of
guilty. had to bridge over with infer
ences any one of wh'oh might have
been entirely erroneous. 4 chain of
evidence based for the greater part on
wild conjecture and forged in the heat
of popular excitement is a mighty poor
thing to set up as a specimen of Amer
ican justice at its best, and this Is
true quite apart from the personality
of the affected prisoner
We see no reason to recall our Or
igina! opinion that the execution of
Holmes upon the basis Of the thin case
made against him by fhe District At
torney of Philadelphia, would be
an exhibition of injustice rather than
justice. Though Holmes had killed Il
million men. he Is TO he regarded as
innocent until proved guilty. That
proof has not yet been supplied.
The Washington Post confesses that
1T is not in the least surprised at the
result. "Since it came into power,
nearly three years ago." it says. "the
Democtatic party has done nothing to
commend itself to the admiration and
confidence of the people, and there was
no reason why the people should, at
this stage of affairs, withhold the cx-
preston of their distrust and discon-
tent" We suspect that the same as
serdlon will prove true with reference
to 1896,
