Yet Time to Avert Trouble.

Eight days prior to the day set for
the assembling of the Republican state
convention there is feeling among an
increasing number Of citizens friendly
or unfrcndly to Senator Quay that, in
his capacity as the recognized director
Of the Republican party organization in
Pennsylvania he will yet take steps to
avert the unwelcume consequences
which he and they foresee will follow
the forcing upon the ticket of the Hon.
William a. Stone. This feeling does
not arise from information but from
belief that Senator Quay Is too wise a
politician to step with eyes open into
third trap like that which in 1882 de-
featcd Beaver and that which eight
years later upset Delamater. In 1882
and in 1890 Colonel Quay had nothing
personal at stake save his grip upon
the party machinery, which by clever
strategy he managed to retain: but this
year he is personally q candidate for
reelection, and he cannot obtain that
reelection if by reason of the popular
distrust of Stone the party majority is
greatly reduced or wholly wiped out.
Let it be understood thnc we speak
this necessary truth in no spirit of vim
dictive antaSonism to either Senator
Quay or Colonel Stone. Both are gem
tlemen for whom we entertain person.
ally the kindlicst feelings But facts in
politics are much more important than
feelings, and it is fact, which any cit
izen can easily verify, that among the
men who usually vote the Republican
ticket there is a deep and widening un-
dercurrcnt OF opposition to Colonel
stones candidacy-just such an under
current, only far more pronounced, as
existed against the personally popular
BeaVC" IN 1852, and against the then un-
masked DClamatcr eight years after

primaries where this issue has been
carried directly before the people evil

moro ominCusly in the co,nmCn speech
of the paopla, in the great volume of
prediction that stones nomination will
mean Republican defeat, AMI in the un-
preCCdertcd restl assness and independ-
CnCe OF the masses, both of which cry
alOui against offensive loss dictation.
We believe we are we'll within the
limits of moderation i'm saying that the
temper of the voters of PENNSYLVANIA
at this time Is such that they will not
ratify a choice for governor which car
ries with it the suspicion of control by
William II. Andrews and men of his
class. The time to take note of this
fact is before the convention assemblies
Wise leadership is yet effiCacious to

future with promise. \ large majority
of the male inhabitants Of Pennsyl-

No nonopoIY In Franchises.

A decision Of the first importance has
been made by the United States Su-
preme court in a case involving the
point whether a city council has the
right TO grant exclusive franchise
rights. The facts in the case are these:
In 1862 the Detroit City railway was
authorized by ordinance to operate
street railways exclusively in the
streets OF Detroit. In 1879 by subse-
quent enactment of councils this mon
opoly was extended to cover thirty
additional years, But in 1894 an ordi-
nance was passed granting to another
street railway company certain rights,
whereupon the first company brought
suit. Beaten in the state court, it ap-
pealed to the ultimate tribunal, which
now decides in effect that no city coun-
ell may grant exclusive franchise
rights.
II would seem 10 follow as a logical
sequence of this decision that when one
telephone company enjoys a franchise
on certain conditions and a second
company organizes to competa with II

for general business the second COM
pany cannot constitutionally be de-
prived of the right to do business by
the imposition of terms vastly more
exacting and onerous than are the
terms enjoyed by the original corpor-
alton. 1t would seem that the Lacka-
wanna Telephone company, which, with
500 subscribers on five-year contracts,
wants to get the use Of the streets Of
Scranton so as TO lease telephones and
telephone service at one-half the rates
now charged by the local branch Of the
American Bell Telephone company
might, if It chose, snap its finger az
the element in councils which is striv-
ing to shut it out by means of prac-
tically prohibitory amendments, and
fight its opponents successfully i'm the
courts
Perhaps this is its intention.

Force Is the Best Persuader.

1t is interesting to note a gradual
change in the tone of the trade press
concerning the announced purpose Of
the individual coal operators to force
from the coal carrying railroads fairer
treatment OF anthracite. For example,
the Philadelphia StoCkhoder, which at
first spoke jestingly of the contem-
tide-water, surveys of which are now
in progress, has become sufficiently
serious to remark:
"There is under way in the anthra-
cite coal regions an organized move
ment which, while in it's earlier de-
velopment it may evoke sarcastic ref
erences to the three tailors of Tooley
street may yet take on proportions Of
such magnitude as will command for
it very serious consideration The
business interests of the anthracite
counties are forming associations to
demand, as they express it, not char
ity, but fair deal in the treatment
accorded those regions by the railroads.
Their agitation is based upon the claim
that if anthracite coal were granted
the same rate per ton per mile as BIZ
luminous, the enlargement of the
market would give the population of
those regions steady work, and that
owing to the excessive freight rates,
anthracite coal is being turned out of
the market for nearly all steam and
manufacturing purposes. They claim
that the only difference in the market
between anthracite and bituminOus
should be about so cents a ton, repre-
Their declared purpose is expressed in
the statement that they seek to get
rid of the excessive freight tolls that
now paralyze the coal trade-a rate of
. mills per ton a mile on bituminous
and II mills on anthracite, indicating
the discrimination against this region
Whether this movement shall amount
to anything or not, it is likely to bring
out additional discussion of the ques-
tion of the advisabilty and probable
advantage to the anthracite roads of
making such concessions in tolls as
would place hard coal in a position to
compete with bituminous on terms
more nearly equal"
our contemporary is assured that
more than discussion will be effected
by the proposed new railroad. 1t will
bring down the tolls-not because the
present railroads have sense enough
TO see that ruinatiOn of the anthracite
trade means eventually loss to them,
also, but because under the stress of
actual competition they will have to
yield. There is no persuader so sure
as force.

OUR GREATEST VICTORY.
From the Atlantic Monthly.


The removal of the scandal of Spain's
control of it's last American colony is as
just and merciful as it is pathctic-a nee
essary act of surgery for the health of
civilization. OF the two disgraceful
scandals of modern misgOvernment, the
one which lay within our correction will
no longer defaCe the world. But when
we have removed 1t, let us make sure
that we stop; for the old worlds troubles
are not our troubles, nor its tasks our
tasks, and We should not become sharers
in it's jealouses ard entanglements. The
continued progress of the race in the
equalization of opportunity and in we'll
being depends on democratic institutions,
of which, we, under God, are yet, in spite
of all our shortcomings, the chief bene-
fciaries and custodians. our greatest
victory will not be over Spain, but over
ourselves-to show once more that even
in it's righteous wrath the republic has
virtue of self-restrant.
