Boss Croker Worried.

Richard Croker has taken the plat
form in defense OF his action in inhict-
ing revenge upon Judge DAILY, the New
York Supreme Court justice who would
not permit his judicial actions to be
controlled by the leader of Tammany
Hall. In sbeech of unusual length
for him-he defends the turning down
of DAILY on thH score that none of Daly's
associates on the bench had impor-
tuned for his renom!ration, adding:
IF the Republican party is TO succeed
in creating an issue out of the failure
TO nominate Judge DAILY. it means that
any and every judge on the bench will
stay there whether the people want
him or not regardless of his fitness.
For twenty-eight years Justice Daily
has been honored by the Democratic
party. Now he sees fit to show his
loyalty and gratitude to the party by
allowing himself to be used as catspaw
to deceive the people and attract
votes"
This, in Mr. Crokers opinion, is an
objectionable crime. Judge DAILY, he
evidently believes, had no right to re-
sist party discipline administered in
rebuke for his refusal to turn the ju-
dicial office into a Tammany annex.
Mr.. Croker follows this interesting
opinion with a personal attack upon
the character of Elihu Root. one of
Judge Days present supporters, which
has no bearing whatever upon the mcr-
its of the case. Root might be the
greatest rascal unhung and yet that
fact would not justify Croker in ty-
ing to put a political blanket mortgage
on every man in the Democratic party
who asplres TO judicial position. The
fact that the New York Bar associa-
tion, 5000 strong, representing and en-
bodying l!c flower of the legal profess
sion in America, has indorsed DAILY
aac oensurec Croker Will among SEN
sible persons outweigh whatever fault
may have appertained to DAILY for re-
fusing TO submit meekly to Croker's
direct slap in the face,

THE WORLD FAST BECOMING
CHRISTIANIZED.
From the Philadelphia Press.

From the Philadelphia Press.
The rate at which the world is passing
under the control of Christian govern
ments, and especially of the more en-
lightened and progressive governments,
has been greatly accelerated in recent
years. The events of the past summer
have moved far and swiftly in this direc-
tion. 1t is only when we take a wide
survey over the course OF centuries that
we can frlly appreciate the strength Of
such historical tendencies. About one
third of the human race or five hundred
millions, are today Iominally Christian
But this one-third holds the rens of gov
ernn ent over about two-thirds of the
race, or about one thousand millions, OF
men. one hundred years ago the popula-
tion of the glooe was about one thousand
millions. OF these, about SO per cent, or
three hundred and sixty millions, we're
Al that time under nomnaly Christian
governments, and Ga per cent, or six
hundred and forty millions, under nom
Christian governments. In 1890 the ponu-
lstion had grown to nearly fifteen hun
dred millions, and of these eight hundred
and ninety-one millions according TO the
Statesman's Year Book were governed
by Christian governments. This did not

Make a Rush to Victory.

1t is rumored that at the last minute
Swallow or jerks will retire and an
effort will be made to combine their
votes against Stone. If any retiring is
tn be done, it would of course have
to be done by DR.. swallow, who as an
independent candidate has no party
organization behind him and is polti-
cally strong only so far as the Wana-
maker combination loans him strength
in its campaign of revenge upon SEN
ator Quay We do not know how
many Of DR.. Swallows supporters who
have come to him temporarily from
the Republican ranks would be willing
TO he transferred bodily over to
Democratic free silverite and free
trader. To go that far would be equiv
alent to qualification of every past
declaration of party principle and be-
lief, and Therefore we doubt if such
wholesale delivery could be effected
if attempted.
But the fact that the possibility of
such move is already being discussed
in the press of this and other states
ought to Indicate to every loval Re-
publican the urgent need of energy and
activity in party service. The sacr-
flee of this great commonwealth to the
DcmoCra party two years after it
had recorded for Republican policies
the largest popular majority ever given
in an American state would be a ma
tional misfortune which every voter
- ,lN,,tf a.
to regret. Ii would throw a wet blan-
kct upon Republican enthusiasm from
Maine to California and give an i'm
mcnse impetus TO the revolutionary in
iIuenCes which the people so strikingly
repudiHted in the presidential contest
of 1896. The carrying of Pennsylvania
by jerks as the result of deals made
with Wanamaker and his co-cOnspra-
tors would Injure and humilate SEN
atOr Quay and his immediate circle of
friends far less than it would wound
and cripple the Republican cause
throughout the nation, embarrass the
president and cabinet i'm their formu-
lation of policies growing out of the
war, and clothe with new power for flu
ture mischief the least trustworthy
elements in our public life. AS q meth
cd of party regeneration It would be
equally as futile as were the two cleo
tons Of Pattison, while as a means
of preparation for the important pres
idential campaign of 1900 it would from
a Republican point of view be simply
suicidal
A result so disastrous to the best
interests of the people can be averted
IL those Republicans in Pennsylvania
who have not been carried off their
feet by false representation and spe-
cious deception will in the few days
that remain before election take their
coats off and get TO work for the party
cause. Apathy among Republicans
should not exist. Thought OF this as
an off year should cease. The vital
nature of the emergency before the
voters should be made plain to wsver-
ing Republicans and preparation
should be perfected to bring out every
Republican vote. Let the contest con-
clude with a rush to victory.
