PENNSYLVANIA Day.

Georgia has been called, and very
aptly, the Pennsylvania Of the south
1t therefore is fitting that in the dis
plays of human skill and handicraft
now collected in Georgia's beautiful
capital city Pennsylvania's exhibit
should, among the northern represen-
tations, take first place.
Nor is it unreasonable to expect that
In the new era of rapid Industrial and
commercial development upon which
Georgia and the re-animated New
South are just entering, Pennsylvania
capital and Pennsylvania products will
play an important part. There is nat
ural interrelation between these two
sovereign industrial commemorative
which no superficial division of politi-
cal sentiment can long obscure. The
South will come to the North for its
money; and while there it will come to
Pennsylvania for its machinery, its
fabrications of iron and steel and brass,
and its industrial plans and models.
The growth Of this awakening section
will be a vindication in no small degree
of Pennsylvania skill and Pennsylva-
MIA enterprise; and at its prosperity
PennsyIvanians will be among the first
to rejoice.
The exercises of yesterday at Atlanta
were therefore more than nominal and
formal. They were prophetic. They
foretell the day Of closer union and
franker and freer intercourse. They
form Pennsylvania ratification of the
compact Of accelerated kinship and
friendship, and constitute the felicitous
ceremonial of q new wedding of the Sec

The Situation in Maryland.

Friends Of Senator German represent
him as being utterly overwhelmed by
the result Of the election in Maryland.
They say that he was genuinely conf
dent Of success and would have staked
his last dollar upon the chances Of
Hurst's carrying the state. The dis
crepancy between his expectations and
the mathematical fact in the premises
Is attributed to the handiwork of the
silent voter, who. with never flourish
Of trumpet nor beat Of drum, walked
up to the polls on election day and de-
posted q verdict of elaboration and
conscience.
There is no concealment Of the fact
that German was beaten by Demo-
cratic votes. A majority Of the voters
Of Maryland are yet Democratic
when the party lines are fairly and
clearly drawn. But It may be possible
for the Republicans in that state, by
moderate and judicious administration,
to retain the support Of a sufficient per-
centage Of the thoughtful and intelli-
gent Democrats to insure the continu-
ance Of their present control of the
state. The case stands like this: On
the one side are the Republicans, q
minority; on the other are the Cor
NANTES. also minority; the independ-
ent Democrats cannot elect q ticket of
their own, and they cannot consistently
go back to the German column, hence
we have the possibility of their becom-
ing permanently identified on state
issues. with the Republicans.
Tho most satisfactory feature Of the
recent campaign in Maryland was the
established Importance of the race cry.
Senator German staked his ali upon the
appeal to white prejudice against tha
negro. His references to this subject
were unblushingly demagogical. The
voters Of Maryland were told that Re-
publican success would mean the plac-
ing Of the negro in supreme control Of

Lancing an migrate.

Representative Scranton, when con-
fronted with the evidences of his base
but characteristic ingratitude, through
his newspaper and in the Times inter-
view tries to shift the subject. we
do not propose to let him do 1t. 1t Is
needless to say that we have no quarrel
with any of the gentlemen who met
Monday night in Captain Moir's Of
flee. We do not "whack" at them
Their right to their opinions and pref
erences is sacred and supreme. Many,
probably most of those present that
night owe nothing to what the con-
gresham from this district is pleased
to call the "Connell ring" and hence In
their meeting together to further the
interests Of a number Of candidates
supposed to be hostile to that ring"
there was no improperly.
But in the behalf of Congressman
Scranton, whose recent begging for aid
from the so-called "Connell ring" has
been open and notorious, and who has,
If the truth We're known, been under
such obligations to Mr.. Connell and his
friends that decency at least, If not
gratitude, should urge him to silence,
no such plea can truthfully be entered.
His blatant harangue against his BEN
efactor, uttered coward-fashion be-
hind the latter's back was specimen
of cold and undiluted gall, just like
him, to be sure, but none the less
nauseating to men with a sense Of
honor. Mr.. Scranton can deny until
doomsday that for this disgusting ex-
hibition Of his malice. spleen and envy
he was "called down." but we have
better authority than his own worth
less word for saying that he was, and
right vigorously at that!
The Tribune does not worry over this
rank ingrate's familiar bluster. 1t will
not descend to his plane of spumous
billingsgate. But it wants the people
Of Scranton to know, If they don't al
ready know 1t. that the present raging
champion Of "anti-Connellism" is the
same fawning suppliant who has twice
owed his nomination for congress to
the mistaken generosity of the men he
now honors with his scurrility.

left urung in the octave Of racial pref
udice, and in the forepart of the fight 1t
looked as If this unconscionable trickery
might win. But in the last days of the
canvass popular intelligence revolted,

that Mr.. Scranton should go out of his

An Impossible Plan,

The Pittsburg Times, in noting the
determination of the labor unions to
move for a repeal of the present absurd
law prohibiting the manufacture and
sale in this state of oleomargarine, con-
cedes the improbability Of accomplish
ing such result in the face of the ig-
norance, prejudice and class selfish
ness massed together in favor Of that
law. But it proposes a compromise
measure, which it thinks ought to to be
passed without much trouble. 1t sug-
gests that a system of inspection of OLE
omargarine be established which will
stop the sale of the adulterated product
concerning which the dairymen are so
greatly exercised, and in order to make
the inspection effective it would have it
performed by Federal authority in con-
nection with the internal revenue de-
partment.
The trouble with the Times plan is
that it rests upon the incorrect suppo-
sition that the farming interests would
be willing to permit pure oleomargarine
to enter into competition with their own
often adulterated butter. To be sure,
there is no conceivable reason why the
farmer should be marked out for special
favoritism under the law-and no ex-
cuse for the establishment of a legal
inhibition against the manufacture and
sale Of the chemically pure butter Of
the laboratory. But might makes right;
and the rural members are mighty in
the biennial deliberations of the Penn
sylvania legislature. Therefore the
Times .eminently fair and sensible
proposition-a proposition the adoption
Of which would cheaper the grocery
bills of thousands Of day laborers and
other persons in straitened circum-
stances to whom dairy butter, by rea-
son Of its artificially exalted price, is
almost forbidden luxury-will fall flat
and the present comedy Of class pref
erence go on, to the exceeding great de-
light Of the Pennsylvania granger.
