From the Washington Star.
1t appears to be gradually dawning upon
the people of America that they have
drifted somewhat from the old ideas Of
what constitutes a proper observance of
Independence Day. There seems 10 be y
growing desire TO return to the old-fash-
| ioned ways of celebrating the birth of the
Rpublic, with such modern additions as
present-day skill and inventiveness may
| afford. Aids to patriotism in addition to
| those provided by the customary firing Of
explosives are demanded by 4 progressive
sentiment. 4 correspondent proposes for
| this purpose patriotic concerts by bands
playing under the orders of the authorl>
| ties, giving the people free access to good
music of a timely character and familiar
iZng them with the national airs. He also
proposes plays founded on patriotic Incl
dents, to be given under the auspices Of
| the government. These ideas are well
worth considering at this end OF the CEN
| tury when the thought Of how best to OBJ
serve the greatest of all the national hoii-
days is abroad among the people. In old
en- times there were speeches. poems, pic
mics and barbecues, with very few Incl
dental fireworks. designed to call the peo-
pie together and to turn their minds into
common channel. Now these forms Of
| celebration are practically obsolete. ex-
| cept in certain country districts, and the
holiday is utilized by the great majority
simply as an opportunity to flee from the
| ordinary cares of life and from the eX-
plosive celebrations Of the stay-at-homGs.
| The patriotic societies form the nucleus
around which reform may be successful
| ly wrought. Their plans of observance
| are founded upon the right spirit and per-
haps some day in the near future the
great awakening viii come when the
younger generation will learn the lesson

fidelity and the ensuing campaign will
bring out the united strength of an
enthusiastic party.
The nomination Of ex-senator Will
liams came as natural consequence Of
the unwarranted attack recently made
upon him. an attack which unfortu-
nately had its strongest reinforcement
in the curious course of the leading
Republican organ, which two years ago
was the ex-senator's loudest supporter.
Whatever chances Mr. Palmer might
have had to win for congress on the

The Execution of Mero'o.

It Is well known to our regular read
ers that The Tribune does not believe
in capital punishment. 1t considers
unanswerable many Of the arguments
which may be brought against the
death penalty. On moral grounds it
questions the right Of the state to send
an immortal soul guilt-burdened into
eternity. On the grounds of expedi-
ency it fails to see wherein the semi
barbarous principle of retaliation, as
illustrated by the state when it eXacts
life for life, can work to the ultimate
Improvement of society. Statistics con-
vince us that 1t does not discourage
homicidal crime. Science teaches us
that 1t is often very unjust method of
action, particularly when hereditary in
fluences predestine some persons to
crime just as they predestine other
persons to the pulpit, the studio or the
stage. And lastly, common sense and
common humanity revolt from the
spectacle of legal butcheries and throw
over such scenes the charitable mantle
Of privacy.
The death penalty, however, prevails
in this commonwealth and until there
shall be sufficient enlightment to ordan
in It's stead wisely ordered reforma-
tive system, there is left to opponents
of that penalty no option but to assent
to its enforcement and to insist that the
law in relation to 1t shall be vigorously
and manfully enforced. 1t. therefore,
is cause for partial satisfaction that in
Lackawanna county, after numerous
failures to secure capital sentences for
deliberate murderers, one Of these cul-
prlts will today dedicate to it's lawful
work the first gallows in the county's
history. In the case of Crescenzo Me-
rolo guilt is plain and striking. There
are no extenuating circumstances. The
deed for which he is today to pay with
forfeit of his life was audaclous, brutal
and calculated. His demeanor since
arrest has been that of stolid indiffer-
ence, tinged at times with defiant
bravado. II he is a moral pervert, there
can be small loss from any standpoint
in his subtraction from human society.
If he Is acting bravo's part, sympathy
for him would be superfuous. In
either or any contingency, he has come
to his imminent doom after a strictly
fair and impartial trial; the law of the
commonwealth approves Of his sem
tence and consequently good citizens
will readily acquiesce in his execution
and hope that the influence of 1t upon
the lawless element of the community
will be beneficial.
Before passing from this subject we
deem it proper to renew our felicita-
tions to Sheriff Clemons because of the
wholesome manner In which the ar
rangements for Merolo's execu-
tion have been managed. Sensational
ism has been repressed, mawk-
ishness discouraged and only the
essential facts have been COM
municated by him to the public. The
result has been that the sentimentalism
so frequently characteristic Of prepara-
tions Of this character have in this in
stance been, II we may use the paradox.
conspicuously absent. Thus one seri-
Gus evil of the death penalty has been
kept from outcropping into mischief
and the entire community has been laid
under debt of obligation.
