The Raires Law in Operation.

The fact that the PENNSYLVANIA
Liquor league Is making an aggressive
fight to secure from the next legsla-
ture such notifications of the Brooks
high license law as will make 1t similar
in many respects to the celebrated
Raines law Of New York adds interest
to some facts which the Rochester
Democrat and Chronicle has published
relative TO The latter's operation IN
chester paper prints tabulated ex-
hibit OF the operation of the Ranas
law which it superseded. The detailed
figures are not especially interesting IN
Pennsylvania, but 1t is interesting to
note the general result that the Raines
law effected reduction OF about 80 Per
cent. in the places where liquor is sold.
yet increased by more than 100 per
cent. the revenues from that source.
But" adds the Rochester paper.
"the full measure Of the BENEFITS of the
new law are not exhibited in the above
statement Despite the expected eva d.
sioD5 of an entirely new experiment in
excise egislation-evasions which can
mostly be prevented byadditional safe
guards-the Raines law has given the
cities and towns of the state the best
/ Sunday saloon-closing experience they
have ever enjoyed. No man with any
regard for the truth or decent respect
for the good opinion of his fellow-men,
will deny that the Raines law has shut
down on Sunday liquor selling in this
state more effectively than any other
system or measure the state has ever
had. This may not be a recommends
ton of it in the estimation Of some Of
our fellow citizens. but there can be nc
doubt that the great body of our peo-
pie would be glad to have the sale o.
liquors on Sunday entirely suppressed
In that direction the new Jaw is q
greater success than it could reason
! ably have been expected to be. Be-
| yond all these considerations is the
/ fact that this measure has established
| q state system of supervision and con-
| troll of the liquor traffic as against the
loose. vicious and demoralizing system

Mr.. Bryan. the farmer is one of the toll
ing masses until he gets a hired man
alongside of him.. Then he becomes one
of the opprcssors, and the hired man must
cut his throat If he can. UaughterO
There are commercial travellers who earn
salaries of 800 and 1920, perhaps $1,000 and
$1,000 a month, in rare instances. Uaugh-
ter) Well, that last fellow is not here,
but that is what he told me. (Renewed
laughterD Now IS there to be deadly en-
nifty between the man who gets 500 and
the man who gets $500, $500 and $500? No,
that is not the principle of American lib
erty. The principle of American liberty
Is that we have got the same world be-

Now, in his Labor day speech Mr.. Bryan
said: Don't let your employer inspect
your hallot?' l say also. don't let your
employer inspect your ballot, and | don't
believe it is done. Take the New York
Central railroad, for instance. We have
thirty thousand men, and it is well known
to every one of them that the track
walker has the same political privileges
as the president. | have been president
of that railroad for eleven years, and

nine years, and during that time | have
taken my privileges as a citizen to stand
on the platform and tell my fellow-work-

try, and they believe it or not, just as
they think fit. And of the thirty thousand
men on the New York Central 1t is safe
to say that two-thirds have voted the
Democratic ticket. Every one knows it,
and every politician can tell Mr.. Bryan
that there is not one word of truth in this
attempt to bulldozo employees. Four years
ago | made a speech, and next morning,

how are you going to vote?' jerry re-
Piled: We'll, L am going TO vote against

Jerry again, and | said to him: Jerry,
how has your experiment come out?'
and then he answered: "Well, boss, | am
wild We this year. Uoud laughtcr) That

DECIDEDLT TOUGH.

Backward, turn backward, oh, time. if
you will
Give us Mckinley and give us his bill;
kindle the fire in the furnace again
Furnish more work for our laboring men,
We are weary of Cleveland and Ilkke,
Weary of smoliestacks emitting no smoke;
Weary of spndles that nobody spins;
What are our sins, brother; what are our
sins?
Backward, roll backward, oh. scroll of the
fates.
Show us why Cleveland once carried the
states;
Bring US the men who in Grover believed,
Tell US just how they were caught and
deceived.
What is the nature of popular wrong?
Always the way when Democracy wins,
What are our sins. brother; what are our
sins?
Ever so often fresh converts are made,
Voters who howl for free silver and trade,
Don't give darn for the future expense
Howl without reason and vote without
sense.
That was the case only four years ago;
Cleveland elected and four years of woe.
Those who were for him are crying
enough;
Isn't 1t tough, brother; isn't it tough?

BRYAN'S UNFITNEsS.
ON the Reading Times.

From the Reading Times.
Bryan is a man who has enjoyed greater
advantages Of education, and hence his
speeches are couched in more finished
diction, but in no other respect do they
rise above the level of the harangues de
livered some years ago by the notorious
Dennis Eearney to the hoodlums of the
San Francisco Sand Lots. Not word
has he uttered tending to kindle the pa
triotism OF his hearcrs-not n sentiment
calculated to inspire respect for the laws
and the institutions of their country or
to quicken their pride in their American
citlzenship-not a syllable aiming to stim-
ulate feeling of good will and to
strengthen that bond of common frater
nifty the maintenance of which Is indls-
pensable to the tranquility and harmony
of a social system such as ours. His every
appeal has been to the most ignoble in
stincts and the most unworthy motives
OF men. He has deliberately and per-
sistently sought to excite sectional hos
tility and class prejudice. He has taught
the industrial classes that the government
is their oppressor instead OF their pro-
tector and that the laws and the courts
are the instruments of the harassment of
the poor for the ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF the
rich. His constant appeal has been to the
cupidity and the dishonesty of men, and
his unremitting effort to foment a spirit
of grarianism and social revolution. The
elevation to the presidency of man of
such instincts and character would be q
distinct blow to the dignity of the office
and misfortune to the nation greater,

An Ample Revenge.

Saturdays proceedings at Canton
were calculated to embarrass the the
ory that the workinEmen of the coun-
try are being led astray by the dema-
sogism Of MI. Bryan. OF the five dele
cations that visited the Republican
candidate on that occasion by far the
largest WAS the one which came from
Homestead. from the scene of the labor
disturbance which, through no fault
Of the Republican, party, did so much
four years ago to defeat General Har-
rison. There were over 5000 employees
of the Carnegie works III the party
many of them men vino listened to the
siren voice in 1892 and took this oppor-
tunity to- express repentance and oiter
partial reparation. Their visit and re-
ception, together with the speech Of
Major Mckinley in greeting, consu-
tute by all odds the most memorable
and significant incident of this cam
paign.
The visit on the same day of 1000
Democratic commercial travellers from
step party lines in order to vote for
the return of business confidence and
prosperity. was a notable coincidence,
which may wei! crafty those who
hope for the triumph of Protection and
sound money But. after all. it was
only q frank acknowledgment of the
already established fact that the bust
ness interests of the country look to
the Republican party for relief. The
coming of the Homestead woritmcn
had q deeper meaning and q wider
significance 1t signifed no. only the
failure of the most insdious attempt
of this generation to array labor
against capital in war of classes but
also the complete vindication of the
Republican nominee from the odious
Misrepresentation and defamation
which his advocacy of Protection has
brought upon him during the past six
years.
Reading of this tremendous personal
ovation to Major Mckinley on Satur-
day. ones thoughts turn instinctively
to two prior political campaigns, when
from every platform in the country
Democratic orators poured ont upon
the man from Canton the most cOpl-
Gus measure of satire. vilificatiOn and
abuse. Not only was he branded as
''monopoly's agent" and the "chief tool
Of the syndicates and the trusts" but
the Legislative measure to which he
gave his name was denounced in the
EXTREMIST terms that vitupcrat tion
could employ. The mind involuntarliy
vehemently the doctrine of Protection
to American industries was then as
sailed by the politicians who subse-
Quent1y succeeded to the control of the
government, and reflects with not j
little interest that while many of these
same free traders are now reshooting
the old ammunition at target
changed from free trade to free silver
others Of them have been driven by tbs
very logic Of their former evil work to
fly to Mckinley for protection from the
mischief Of which they themselves
sowed the seed.
Truly the whirligig of time has
brought to William Mckinley an ample
revenge.

Tie Campaign in New York.

as the campaign III New York state
progresses it is becoming apparent that
the Saratoga convention made no mis-
take when it nominated Frank S.
Black tor governor. The political wis
dom of that nomination was evident
at the time 1t was made, in the sudden
and unexpected harmony which it
brought to a situation full of dynamic
possibilities Of factional resentment and
party disaffection. 1t averted a crisis
and gave to all concerned the novel
luxury of heartfelt sigh OF relief
But at that moment, while the pacific
consequences of the move We're readily
foleseen. it is not uncompimentary to
Mr.. Black to say that there was in
many quarters moro or less dubiousncss
as to the nominations wisdom in a
personal sense. Few persons outside
Of Rensselaer, county knew Mr.. Black.
The first impression which naturally
came to those who didn't know him
was that he was probably only a figure
head for Mr.. Plat. The fact that he
was selected for the nomination by the
Platt following and that prior to the
swinging to him of the decisive delega-
tlun no one had regarded his candidacy
ns involving more than a neighborly
compliment on the part of his home
supporters gave the semblance of color
to this impre ssion, and it is only stat
ing o truth to say that there might
easily have developed among the Re-
publican opponents of Mr.. Platt in the
Empire state q feeling of Indifference
to the gubernatorial canvass had such
an impression remained.
1t, however, did not remain. Frank
S. Black took the stump. Pending the
formal opening of the gubernatorial
fight in his own state he went over into
Maine. He spoke from the same plat
form with Thomas b. Reed. He bore
up under the comparison. His speeches
exhibited brains, pluck and charac-
ter. They showed their author was
a force to be reckoned with; that he
was no mere accident of politics, but
q man who owed to accident merely
the opportunity to prove his worth
This fine, firm quality in the mental
makeup of the man was no surprise to
Mr.. Blacks personal friends. They had
tested it of yore. Rut 1t has come as
very agreeable surprise to the Republi-
cans of New York and of the country
who are now making his acquaintance
for the first time. 1t is wining for him
not simply loyalty but also admiration
He is getting the favor of the people,
and it is small wonder that men on the
other side who few weeks ago pro-
fessed to be eager to capture the Dem
ocratic nomination are now doing their
best to run away from the Buffalo
larat.
