Tazewell Republican. [volume] (Tazewell, Va.) 1892-1919, 1898-01-06
THURSDAY, JANUARY 6, 1898.


A new year has been ushered in and
the REPUBLICAN not only expresses the
wish that it may be a year of peace, plenty
and happiness for the world at large, but
that it will be full Of blessings for the
readers and patrons of this paper, The
year, however, may bereplete with stirring
events. There is deep feeling of unrest
throughout the civilized world. As the
peoples Of European countries become
more enlightened they are made more
eager for the freedom that does not pre-
vail in absolute or partially absolute mon
arches. Those who occupy the thrones
are using all possible methods to dirvest
the attention of their subjects by schemes
of colonization and conquest. Africa and
Asia are the objective points of these
movements. In the past few weeks
Germany has created great excitement by
taking possession of an important port in
China and landing armed forces. Russia
has followed suit andls now in possession Of
Port Arthur and another important strate-
gic point is the northern part Of the Celes-
tial Empire, 1t is thought that England
and Japan have an understanding and
will combine their forces to obstruct and
prevent any serious aggressions by Ger
many and Russia in China. If there is no
friendly understanding between the great
Powers of Europe in this movement in the
Orient it may result in tremendous war.
If single blow should pass, with Russia
and Germany on one side and Great
Baitian and,Japan on the.other, the most
terrific armed contest of modern times
will surely follow.
The history of the United States for
1898 may also prove to be eventful. 1t is
highly probable that the Hawaiian islands
will be annexed, either by ratification Of
the treaty made by the present administra-
ton or by a joint resolution of the two
houses of Congress. There is considera'
BILE opposition to the annexation PROPOSE
ton, but the sentiment of this country is
decidedly favorable to it. We are of those
who favor annexation and feel confident
that Hawaii will be valuable acquisition
The Cuban question is also likely to be
settled during the present year. If Presi
dent Mckinley can so conduct negotia
tons as to secure the independence 0
Cuba by the use of moral forces rather
than armed intervention he will ado
greatly to the prestige of his administra
ton and confer a great blessing upon tn
gallant people who are now struggling It
secure their freedom.
The business outlook for 1898 in thi
country is most encouraging. Our manu-
featuring and agricultural interests Me il
bright and improving condition.
In the past twelve months, notwith
standing the predictions of calamity howl
ers, there has been decided improve
ment in all lines of trade. Let us all hop,
that conditions will continue to get bette
until business is placed upon solid an(
substantial basis that will last for years.

A San Francisco girl worked hard as
cashier and bookkeeper all day and spent
her evenings carousing with disreputable
companions, yet she was so clever that
she was not suspected by her employers
until after she had disappeared with a
large sum of their money. She is said to
be sort of female Jekyll-Hyde.

We should suppose not. He is not likely

In the opinion of Hon. Johnny Gar
man the acquittal of Sheriff Martin
proves nothing except that hereafter
in Luzerne county laboring men may
be shot down like dogs without a hope
of redress" Surely it is not as bad as
that. Laboring men or other men who
undertake to do away with law and
order and put instead reign Of terror
may hereafter, as heretofore. expect
trouble, because even in these free
United States there are some limits
beyond which lawlessness and mob vio-
lence may not pass. But those who get
shot down in the mistaken work of
spreading anarchy and sedition may be
consoled with one sweet hope. So long
as breath remains in the lungs and
fee in the hands of Johnny Mellifluous
Garman the welkin will re-echo with
hot and yellow sounds. and the hust-
ings will detonate with demagogism.

Wanamaker.

Mr. Wanamaker's letter accepting
the call to lead another an anti-Quay
revolt is the war cry of a fighter. 1t
will win for him the respect which is
always commanded by pluck and dar-
ing We are not enamored of Mr..
Wanamakcr's political methods nor
have we been convinced that if his
ambition to succeed Senator Quay as
the so-called boss" of Pennsylvania
Republican politics should be gratified
there would come any appreciable bet
termcnt in the general conditions un-
der which a large number of voters in
this commonwealth are growing rest
less. His success might tickle the de-
sire for novelty but that it would be
followed by substantial abatement of
odiOus conditions does not seem predic-
able either upon the character of the
man or upon the nature of his sur
roundinss
At the same time 1t were useless to
disguise the patent fact that with so
resourcCful and determined a man as
John Wanamaker in the field as u
trouble maker the need of prudence in
doubled. We doubt il the Republican
party in Pennsylvania is in condition
to endure another factional struggle
similar to that which preceded the
election of Senator Penrose. We con-
cur i'm the opinion of the Pittsburg
Dispatch that the people want some
thing more in a candidate for COVER
nor than an understanding that he will
he favorable to one boss, or that he
will be opposed to another They want
man who is not identified with either
faction, who will administer the duties
of his Office fearlessly and honestly;
who cannot be cajoled and who cannot
be frightened. If they are allowed to
select such a man from among the
Republican candidates, without inter-
ference from the bosses. they will
probably elect him. If not, they can
look to the Democracy. to the Inde-
pendent party, or to some other source
that will produce such a candidate.
A nomination is not equivalent to an
election"
1t remains to be seen how those
who essay to marshal the Republican
forces in this state will proceed to
prepare for the emergency. Theirs is
the responsibility; let theirs, therefore,
be the action.

The acauittal of Sheriff Martin and his

of their armed resistance to the mob at

Opinions on The
Laftimer Verdict.

The verdict of acquittal rendered by the
jury that has been sitting In judgment on
the case of Sheriff Martin and his depu-
ties is a triumph for order and civiliza-
tion. A divided jury would have been a
misfortune and an adverse verdict an un-
speakable calamity. Sheriffs who do their
duty in times of public disorder and riot
are unhappily rare in Pennsylvania,
while in many states of the Union they
seem to have no existence. If In the in-
frequent Instances when q sheriff meets
the crisis bravcly, meets force with force
and maintains the peace even at the price
OF blood, he and his deputies are to be
first houn0ed as outlaws and then brand
ed as felons by due process of law, riot
ers Will have their own way unchecked
thereafter. Sheriffs cannot be expected
to do their duty in an emergency If the
best reward they can look for in SO doing
is the gallows, or at the least the peni-
tentiary. Instead of an indict-
ment Sheriff Martin has deserved a mon
ument. III we had "a few more such sher-
ifs in the counties where an allen and
ignorant population misunderstood the
meaning Of liberty and the absence of
soldiery, we might give our National
Guard rest. 1t is summoned now at
great expense to the state at every dis
turbance in the coal and coke counties
because sheriffs are timid and will not in
woke the aid of an armed and adequate
posse comitatus to preserve the peace.
Sheriff Martin has shown other sheriffs
the way to preserve order He was not
hasty. He encountered the mob half a
dozen times before the fatal collision took
place. Each time he sought to disperse
1t without violence, and at Lattimer,
when the mob refused to obey his orders
TO disperse, he boldly arrested the fore
most rioter. 1t was then he was set upon
by the mob and his deputies. not being
dummies but men of courage and intelli-
gence, discharged their duty as they un-
dcrstood it, and without special orders de-
Tended their chief in most effective fash
ion. There are some graves in Lattmer
in consequence of this act, but there is
order there For the unfortunate victims
of their own ignorance and folly and for
their perhaps still more unfortunate fam
lilies we have only pity and regret. But
the sacrifice was necessary; the lesson
had to be learned; the price to be paid
The law once more is supreme in Luzerne
county and Sheriff Martin and his depu-
ties are righteously vindicated by the
verdict OF jury of the vicinage.-Phila-
delphia Press.
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1898-03-11
The Verdict's Reception.

1t is creditable to the good judgment
of the American people that the ver-
diet in the Martin trial is everywhere
received by them sanely and with quick
appreciation of its far-reaching i'm
portanCe. The few excerpts which we
reproduce elsewhere from representa-
tive journals voice the almost unani-
nous opinion of approval. No one has
dared to say that the trial at Wilkes
Barre was unfair or the conclusion of
it unjust Even damogogism stands
for the moment abashed and ashamed.
And yet. while upholding, as every
honest citizen must, the regularly con-
stituted authorities whose first reward
for the resolute performance of an un-
welcome duty was an indictment for
murder, it is yet consistent with exact
justice to re-eXpress the sympathy of
the nation for the Lattimer unfortu-
mates, whose ignorance and bad teach
ing led them through sedition to aw-
full but necessary sacrifice. Against
these men there has been no vindc-
tiveness. On the contrary the feeling
for them at the time of their death
was pity and it Is pity still. They were
the children of a vicious environment.
Permitted to come into a country of
freedom without comprehension of or
preparation for freedoms responsible
tiles; after their coming. treated as
outcasts and left as open prey for harp
les and demagogues, their blame is
really the blame of the society about
them-a society which boasted of its
civilization yet tolerated within easy
View great plague spots of semi-say-
agery.
Let us get at the bottom of this
grim tragedy. The acquittal of Martin,
ct al, teaches the wholesome lesson
that law in Pennsylvania must reign
supreme; that he who defies it does so
at his peril. But the verdict of the
jury does not acquit the Christian men
and women of Luzerne and Lackawan-
ma counties who, during the years that
Lattimers have been growing up about
them, have sent mouey and prayers to
the heather of Asia, Africa and New
Zealand but have lifted not finger
to Amerlcanize and Christianize the
alien heather at home. In the eyes Of
the law the Lattimer incident is closed !;
in the eyes of humanity, of morals, of
religion, 1t has only just begun.
