tice that the enterprising and reli-

calling attention to three, which
seem to have won great favor
wherever known. They are the

From the praise ond compliments

THE CASE OF MIR. REED.
From the Manufacturer.

From the Manufacturer.
The suggestion is offered by New Eng
land journal that Mr.. Thomas b. Reed
probably regards as not much better
than an insult to himself the suggestion
of his elevation to the vice. presidency Ct
the United States. This, of course, is mere
conjecture. Mr.. Reed would naturally
prefer the head of the ticket. and multi
tudes of Americans would rejoice to have
his name put there. But 1t is not dis
creditable to him in any way that an
other man seems to be preferred. If he
shall fail to get the nomination he will
be In good company with Henry Clay,
Daniel Webster, James G. Blaine, and
other Americans of large Importance. In
fact, it has been by no means the rule
that the most eminent Of the aspirants to
the Office have succeeded in reaching It.
If Mr.. Reed shall regard with sour feel
ings the lower office. there is precedent for
that; for Daniel Webster. disappointed
in his wish to obtain the nomination to the
presidency, spurned the vice-presidency
but this action can hardly be thought to
have been to his honor. The vice-pres-
dency of the United States. held by john
Adams and Thomas jefferson. is not be-
meath the dignity of any man. 1t Is worth
much because of the possibility of success
sion to the presidency; and seven vice
presidents. in one way or another. have
had that promotion. Mr.. Reed may not
desire It, but he cannot afford to scorn
it. Wanting in power and influence 1t may
be: and there are good reasons for wish
ing that the want might in some may be
supplied: but it does not promise oblivion
to a man of large ability nor even the
smallest sacrifice of his self-respect In
Mr.. Reeds case it Is not unlikely that
his popularity with the members of his
party would be increased IL he should con-
sent to strengthen the ticket by permitting
his name to go upOn 1t.

According to Washington advices
"intimations have been thrown out by
gentleman who holds intimate rela-
tions with President Cleveland, and
who claims to understand the policy OF
the administration on the Cuban ques-
ton, that after congress has taken its
departure and no further fear of ap-
prehension may be felt from their pres
ence here, President Cleveland will pur-
sue line of policy more in accord with
the sentiment Of the people Of this
country, than has heretofore been fol-
lowed" Too bad, isn't it, that congress
cannot be abolished?

Charlie, Scranton.-It is pleasing to con-
template the rays of the heavenly bodies
as cast upon character like yours. There
is certain .exuberance in your makeup
that causes one to smile at the manner
in which you must have veXed the fool
killer by keeping out of his reach so many
years. You are fitted by. nature and des-
tined to ride bicycle, and there Is noth-
ing slow in your movements. With your
nose close to the tire Of the front wheel
you might be taken for one of Kipling's
wolf children on all fours as you fly
through space at sunset. You ought to
be rare specimen, but unfortunately you
are not uncommon in Scranton. We
would advise you to keep everlastingly at
it. Perhaps you may sometime mistake a
stone hitching post for the shadow of a
frightened pedestrian, and then all will
be well.

An Explanation Needed.

1t would be interesting to know upon
what basis of fact or assumption the
congress of the United States. after
having in both branches by a vote al
most unanimous declared the opinion of
the country that the Cuban insurgents
should be recognized by the executive
authority as belligerents, has since de-
cided to acquiesce in the presidents S
calm ignoring of that morally manda-
tory although technically advisory ex-
preston. Before the congress shall ad-
journ, or in other words, within the next
few days and perhaps within the next
few hours, it should in self justification
offer such explanation that the country
may know why congress once heated
zeal for the cause of Cuba libre so sud-
denly and effectually cooled under the
contemptuous attitude of the present
occupant of the while house.
This duty of explanation is especially
necessary on the part of the United
States senate, the body in which the
flame of Cuban sympathy first leaped
into fierce blaze and then soonest died
down, as if mysteriously quenched, into
drear embers Of merely fitful interest.
Can the "ablest deliberate body in the
world" afford to adjourn this week
without clearing up this mystery? Can
its members afford, in the face Of this
singular revCsal-a reversal all the
more noticeable because accompanied
with numerous signs of the presidents
amused contemplate disperse among
their respective constituents with the
odium of seeming qualification yet i'm
pacted upon their foreheads?
There is need of explanations. The
people are not only curious but also in
dignant. They feel that their sentiment
of sympathy for neighbcring people
fighting against great odds for liberty
has been juggled with by their represen-
tatives at the seat Of government. From
the present president they have learned
to expect such juggling; but from their
servants in the congress they not only
did not anticipate but do not intend to
tolerate similar deception. The senti-
ment of nine Americans out Of every
ten is that the Cuban insurgents should
be recognized as belligerents, and that
this republic should do all within It's
power, short of the employment of
armed force, to aid in the establishment
OF Cuba's Independence Why, then, is
thls sentiment ignored at WASHINGTON
What is now wanted of the Scranton
ball club is great deal more Of the

THE THREE FINEST SENTENCES
From the Washington Post.

From the Washington Post.
Senator Blackburn declares that the
exclamation of Horace Greeley, when he
heard that General Grant was nominated
a second time for the presidency, was one
of the three most eloquent sentences that
were ever uttered. The most eloquent
sentence that ever fell from human lips
he thinks was the prayer of Christ on
Calvary: Father, forgive them, for they
know not what they do" The second was
Napoleon Bonaparte's apostrophe to the
pyramids of Egypt, beginning: Soldiers
of France, forty centuries look down
upon you" while the third was Greeley s
quotation from the lamentations of Jere-
miah, after the denomination of Grant:
Must my country be always devou.ed
by the sword"

world. have been guilty Of the same dis
obedience Of their church's divorce can
on without calling down upon their
heads the slightest rebuke. 1t says upon
this point:
They have married again after having
obtained divorces for desertion merely,
and frequently they have secured the di-
vorces for the express purpose of such
marriage. They have taken up a nominal
residence in states where the divorce laws
are liberal; and sometimes almost imme-
diately after getting their legal freedom
from the old matrimonial bonds they have
entered into the new. This they have
done, too, without mourning social disap-
prevail; and consequently the Episcopal
canon is of little force in deterring people
from such divorces and marriages. So
long as the civil law gives them justitica-
tion and the society they frequent does
not frown. they are careless about the
church canon. They treat it as of no
mere consequence. SO far as concerns
their conduct practically. than the general
admonitions of the pulpit respecting other
matters with which their inclinations or
the usages of society are in conflict. They
do not take it seriously. Women who
have been punctilious IN their graceful
observances of all Episcopalian proprie-
ties pay no heed to this particular canon
when irksome matrimonial bonds prevent
their assuming others ardently desired by
them. Because of it no Episcopal clergy
man can solemnize their new marriages,
but they have no objection to the tying
OF the knot by minister from another de-
nomination. or even by a Justice of the
peace So long as the marriage stands in
the civil law they are satisfied: and the
satisfaction seems to extend to the society
in which they move. They suffer from no
troublesome disadvantages because OF
their ecclesiastical disobedience. That be-
ing the case, the canon is futile, so far rs
the world of fashion is concerned. So.
cety is thus shown to be more powerful
than the Episcopal church. Its permis-
sion overrides the ecclesiastical prohi-
biton.
Our contemporary wonders If the re-
spect of these people for the church is
not after all, merely perfunctory and
superficial rather than founded on any
deep and vital religious faith" and
asks: Does this circumstance not in
dicate that society looks upon the
church simply as one of the institutions
under its patronage, and not divine
institution making for it the religious
law il is bound to obey?" We should
say that it indicates rather the su-
premacy of the law of individual con-
science to ecclesiastical canons. What
the law of conscience approves and the
civil law does not prohibit is hardly to
be interdicted with success by the rule
of the church. Yet, If the issue were
once raised as to the right of these
offending laymen to continue within the
fold of the Episcopal church, we dare
say they would be suspended.

Church Canons and Conscience

An interesting point is raised by the
Sun in connection with the case of Rev.
Mr. Fuller, of Maiden, Mass, an Episco-
pal clergyman who, having obtained a
divorce from his first wife on the ground
of desertion, took unto himself second,
contrary to the church canon which pro-
hbits a second marriage except to the
innocent party to divorce for adultery.
Nj. Fuller was promptly suspended
from the Episcopal ministry, which was
obviously proper since he had disre-
garded fundamental law of that re-
ligious organization of which he had
been q conspicuous exponent and de-
fender.
But the Suns point is that many Of
