No Marking for Slaughter.

We are glad to see that General Gros-
venor, the Washington manager of the
Mckinley campaign, takes the sensible
view of the attitude of those Republi-
cans who have preferred other candi-
dacies to that which he ably represents.
In reply to question whether he had
ever stated that If Mckinley were nom-
mated, Senator Quay and his friends
would be marked for political isolation,
he said on Friday:
II never said such thing or anything
Of that nature. 1t Is true that l believe

ator Quay, or TO the effect that we could
get along without him, that have, never
done. We need Senator Quay; in fact. we
need the assistance of every good Republi-
can.. After the convention there will be no
factions, and the Republican party will
stand as one man, fighting in common
cause.-the election of the candidate. We

positively that Martin and Magee have
not been promised any office or control Of
one appointment In Pennsylvania in re-
turn for their suppdrt-not one. Neither
has any other man. There have been no
deals. 50 far as know, and there win be

These are the utterances of good
politician and philosopher. II the
people believed that Major Mckinley
had secured his present lead in the
presidential race by secret deals, or if
they thought that he would, In the

The Common Sense Cure.

A writer in the Jermyn Press, in COM
menting ON Mr.. Sturges' recent letter
concerning the anthracite coal trade,
blames the operators themselves for the
recent troubles of the trade. lie
charges them with responsibility Tor
the fact that two breakers are stand
ing where one would be sufficient.
This argument is not without substan-
tial justice: yet it probably is not more
applicable to the trade in anthracite
coal than to the trade in hardware.
drugs and groceries. II could be APP
piled also to the professions, were 1t
not that the commodity in which they
deal--namely. brains-is yet insufficient
for the demand
In this very tendency to over-produc-
tion Is the publics safety. Those who
complain that the business of mining
and selling hard coal has been syndi-
Gated may rest assured that whenever
the trust" concerning which they
murmur profusely, attempts to extort
unfair prices from consumers, there will
be found producers willing to break
away from the agreement and thereby
keep the price within reason. In the
meantime. the present effort to restrict
production to market demands Is some
thing beneficial as well to the miner
as to the mine -owner. and as well to
the community as to either. 1t will
scarcely be argued by the intelligent
miner that employment at satisfactory
wages could be expected for any con-
siderable time upon basis of over
production followed by loss on the part
OF the mne-owner Nor can 1t be re-
garded as to the interest of any class
Of citizens in Northeastern Pennsylva-
MIA to have the limited supply of coal
which is the foundation of our pros
perity frittered away at less than cost
price.
If Il mistake has been made in the
past by the building of two breakers
where one would have suHiccd. it is not
to be corrected by display of temper.
Nor under the law is it feasible for the
community to take forcible possession
Of every other breaker and close its
entrances. Those who have at heart
the betterment of the anthracite trade
and this number should include every
citizen of Lackawanna county--might
better endeavor to assist the present
movement to secure among operators a
voluntary concert of restrictive action
SO that the error of the past shall not
be likewise the error Of the future.

favored by a majority of Republicans
in the Republican states is because it
is believed, and because il has been
authoritatively asserted I'm his behalf.
that he would, If elected. remember
with substantial gratitude those party
leaders and party workers upon whom
Republicanism as an effective organ
iZed force very largely depends.
Senator Quay Is one of the most
prominent of those r'en To whom Re
publicanism owee today Its fattering
prospects of national success. He rep
rescnts a force in politics which is not
unlike that represented i'm war by reg
ular soldiery. When the green volun-
teers lose their enthusiasm and make
for the rear, he stands by the party
standard, and fights until conquered.
Senator Quay has faults and makes
mistakes. In the campaign for the
nomination he has opposed Mckinley
when he might perhaps have accom-
plished more for himself and for his
friends by supporting him. But in this
attitude he has done nothing more than
to exercise his rights; and if, after the
nomination. he gives to the ticket his
loyal support, as he undoubtedly will,
that fact ought to end all differences.
Senator Quay not only represents
Pennsylvania in the United States SEN
ate but he is is representative on the
national battlefield of politics. with
credentials from the banner Republican
majority in the Union. II would be un
wise for Republican president to Try
TO ignore such representation, except
for good and sufficient cause.

The intimation of Senator Quay that
inasmuch as three of the four dele
gates-at-large in Illinois are personally
opposed to Mckinley they may refuse
to obey the conventions instructions Is
not plausible. 1t hints at a perfidy Of
which not even Senator Quay's lieu
tenant, William II. Andrews, would be
capable; as was shown at Harrisburg
on April %, when Andrews voted for the
Robinson resolution instructing for Nc
Kinley for second choice, mot" as he
explained, because he personally ia
vored Mckinley but because his consti-
tuents did" 1t is unlikely that any of
