Those Jennings Case Charges.

1t is to be hoped that Attorney I. H.
Rurns will carry out his determination
20 give Attorney Cornelius Smith a
chance 10 substantiate his standing
charges growing out Of the now-cele-
br1ted Jennings case. As Mr.. Burns
points out, the entering Of these charges
On the records Of the Supreme court
constitutes, IL they are untrue, a gross
injustice to the memory Of Judge Con-
molly, as we'll az to the character Of
men yet alive.
In view of the forbearance Of the
TIackawannta Bar association in this
matter, II may be that Mr.. Burns sug-
gestion Of an action for libel offers the
only remaining method of putting an
end to Attorney Smiths intermittent
accusations. It would at least bring
the subject to a definite issue. and rem
der possible an authoritative answer
to the question whether the obligations

standard by means Of spurious appeal
to rural prejudice. Every cay strength
ems the administration throughout the
commonwealth. and correspondingly
weakens the senator. II Mr.. Quay is
wise he will not risk the consequences
OF an utter rout on the floor Of the con-
veution, but will call his foolish war on
ard treasure the possibilities that yet
remain.
Otherwise. he may ride to doom not
generally anticipated nor desired.
The allegations in Pittsburg Quay
organ that the state administration Is
using money to buy delegates come
with peculiar charm from the element In
Pennsylvania politics which has become
notorious for its generous use OF cash
In politics. The plaint of Senator Quay
on this score, while undoubtedly with
out foundation. Is interesting in that II
shows the senator's desperation. and
probably presages an early abandon
ment OF his obviously hopeless fight.

Why Quay Is Opposed.

Pittsburg Times: I'm a time Of pro.
found peace Senator Quay declared war
without warning or cause upon the Repub-
lican leaders OF Philadelphia because they
had refused to abdicate in his favor the
privilege Of home rule and accept at his
hands a nominee for mayor, who would
have invited defeat. The fact that their
action was indorsed by an unparalleled
majority at the mayoralty election made
no difference In staying the warfare COM
menced upon them by Senator Quay.
Again, suddenly and without warning, and
with the aid Of Democratic legislators. lie

ernor Hastings and q large majority Of the
Republican members Of the legislature

cessful state chairman the party has ever
had with the most unpopular and unsuc-
cessful one, and, finding this impossible.

place Of Mr.. Andrews, in order to assure
the latter the position and authority Of

The Truth About Lncknwanna.

Philadelphia Press: 1.-THE logic Of one Of
our Democratic Quay contemporaries in
this city Is that because the Quay candi-
dates for delegates In Lackawanna county
were defeated. therefore the antl-Quay
delegates that were elected are Quay
delegates! Nothing has been more ridicu-
lous among all the absurd things of the
war which Is being made on the adminis-
tration than the attempt Of the Demo-
cratic-Quay organs to get some comfort
out Of Senator Quay's total defeat in
Lackawanna county. The facts are simple
and indisputable. Quay candidates for
delegates were run In every district and
thousands Of dollars in money were put
out In their behalf, and In every instance
they were defeated. In at least one case
when Senator Quay's friends attempted
to instruct the delegates by resolution It
was overwhelmingly voted down. II the
Lackawanna Republicans had wanted
their delegates to be for Mr.. Quay un-
doubtedly they would have elected the
candidates run in Mr.. Quay's interest.
But they didn't do that; they elected the
Others"

say there Is mo principle involved Is all
moonshine. This Is the initial fight against
Senator Cameron's reelection. II Mr..
Quay should win this fight. stand at the
head OF the party as chairman and thus
be enabled to name In large part the dele
cation to the next national convention
and the representatives In the legislature.
there would be some hope for Senator
Cameron. To prevent this Is the 'pr.nci-
Pile involved, and no citizen should blind
his eyes to the fact"
