How verdant and placable lot
those Michigan silverites be! With
an overwhelming majority IN favor of
the honest if plebian dollar of the con-
stitution, they allow themselves to
be overcome by the Shermanized rem
nant of the party: submit to the die
tates of the Fedeaal office-holders and
humbly bow to the will of altruistic
Cuckoodom. But what a change, dear
countrymeu, has come over the spirit
OF the dream of the Master! A few
short years ago he suspended Hon. M.
E. Benton from Office for having made
a speech or two in behalf of the Dem
ocratic party and against the common
enemy; now there is no work SO dirty
that the Federal appointee may not be
called upon to do it; no means so
vicious that it may not be employed
to defeat the will of the people who
called upon Mr.. Cleveland to serve,
not to rule them. From the highest
Cabipet officer down to the backwoods
fourth-class postmaster-none are too
poor to be called upon to do this mis-
cradle service: to cheat aud defraud
the party of its will. 1t is shameful,
and must not be permitted to triumph.

Our esteemed friend, Hon. Francis

editorial in last weeks issue In which
we called attention to the existence of

The PattisOn Boom,

While from a practical standpoint 1t
makes no particular difference what the
Democrats Of Pennsylvania do today at
Allentown, there is a certain sentiment
al interest in the fact that they will
more or less seriously offer a Pennsyl-
vanian for the leadership of their party
in the approaching national campaign.
Reports from the field indicate that
however much the anti-Harrity minor
ity may try to fight down the unit rule
which ties the entire state delegation
into a personal property Of the state
boss, 1t will offer no open opposition
to the launching of the presidential
boom Of Robert Emory Pattison.
Just why SO amiable a gentleman as
the Democratic ex-governor should
care at this time for presidential nom
ination is far from clear That even II
he should get 1t, 1t would involve simply
an overwhelming defeat, he must fore
see. Nor does the ultimate future of
his party look 30 promising that there
would seem to be inducement for him
to make a present graceful sacrifice
with an eye to a later recompense.
When we consider. therefore, that his
entry into the field as an active aspir-
ant for the empty honor Of the Chicago
nomination has not the small advan-
tage Of an unobstructed pathway. but
on the contrary seems likely to precipi-
tsss him into the. thick Of An snlRated

TOM REEDS CHANGE.
From the Chicago Times Herald.

OF course Mr. Reed could not reform
the senate all by himself. The senate Is
the senate and the vice-presdent of the
Unitd States Ia not a member Of 1t. He
Is supposed to be a mere fgurehead, q
moderator, an automatic gavel. There are
many men in Washington who say neither
Mr.. Reed nor any other presiding officer
of the senate could exercise the smallest
influence upon that body or its methods
that II h. attempted leadership or change
the moss-grown traditionalists would run
all over him and make him wish he had

MAKING A RECORD.
From the Philadelphia Times.

Congressman Joe Scranton has engaged
in a new occupation-that Of dividing the
western territories into convenient num-
ber of states-and this peculiar departure
by way Of activity and energy now sur
rounding the movements Of the Lacka-
wanna statesman must be regarded as q
very clever employment, for since his
engagement as a creator OF an assortment

in the Lackawanna Valley have simmered
down almost to u condition Of peace and

Mr.. Scranton's aptitude and ability as

1t Is hardly likely that Mr.. Scranton's
zeal and diligence as a statesman-emi-
nently proper as they appear to be-will
avail the sections that have been the OBJ
jects Of his favor. But 1t must be remem-
bered that Mr.. Scranton Is really In earn

a member Of the house. Never before
in all his previous terms has he ap-
peared to such signal advantage. And
this patriotic exhibition, coupled with a

inclination to do so.
"There are, however" he significantly

Quay which does not involve absolute
surrender Of all self-respect and indi-

Quay is expended. Some persons for

terested and loyal service to him by
such brutal treatment as his fool

express an honest opinion in the con-
vention, and by his astonishingly un-
grateful treatment of Leach, he will
very soon put the machinery in motion
that will give him plenty Of trouble to
burn at every state convention"
We do not know to what particular
friends of Senator Quay the irascible
Median refers. AS for Leach, 1t is pref
ty we'll established that Senator Quay
did him a positive kindness by inter-
posing Just In the nick of time to spare
Deputy Attorney General Elkin's
friends the unpleasant necessity Of
wiping the floor with Leach in the con-

conventions refusal to couple Quay in
structions with Mckinley instructions,
we think Brother Robinson Is unduly
agitated. The delegates from Pennsyl-
vania to the st. Louis convention, so
far as we are acquainted with them,
seem to be men pretty well capable of
doing as they shall deem for the best
interests of the Republican party. They
will not need hurrah instructions to
cause them to make such a selection,
in the event of the necessity arising for
a second choice, as will reflect credit
upon their judgment and satisfy the in

ents.

SALVlNI WILL PLAY II.
A Romantic Drama by John Bon
ner and His Daughter, Miss
Geraldine Bonner.

1t has just leaked out that two we'll
known San Francisco writers, John Bon
ner and his daughter. Miss Geraldine
Bonner, have written romantic drama,
which will shortly be produced on the Pa
ciic Coast.
The work was completed several months
ago and was first submitted to Alexander
Salvini, who was so delighted with it that
he at once decided to make the Bonner
drama one of the star features OF his au-
tumn and winter tour. Shortly afterward
the young traeedian fell i'll at the villa of
his ilustrious father in Italy. Reports of
his condition grew more and more dis
couraging. and finally the Salvlni tour
was abandoned and the Italian papers
stated authoritativeIy that the young ira
gedian was dying of tuberculosis OF the in
testines.
In this unhappy state of affairs it seemed
impossible that the drama written by Mr..
and Miss Bonner could ever be produced
by Salvini and they were Just opening
negotiations with James ONeill, when
yesterday they received news that Salvini
was well again and would shortly begin
his long deferred American tour. Not
only is Alessandro himself again, but he
