The EaGLE WILL SCREaJM.
Puilman's Fourth of July to be a
Rec6fd Breaker.
Arrangements Being Made for Il
Big Celebration.

Gullm2n VIII celebrate the glof-

tertain the people on the Fourth.
A meeting Of the citizens was
held in the city hall, Monday even
ing, at which it was decided unan-
imously that the city should cels-
brate, and that the celebration be
made big one in ever paaticular,

left in the hands of committee
composed of Messrs. NJ. d. Henry,
J. NJ. Palmerton, 7. 7. Davis, G. p.
Jordan, c. N. Gaddis, A. Reaney
and W. Allen, and the next even

While the plans for the cclc bra

yet, enough is known to promise
the greatest celebration in Pull
mans history. and it is very prob
able that the festivities will extend
over both NJ onday and Tuesday,
the 4th and 9TH. There will of
course be the parade in the morn
ing, in which many features will be
brought into prominence. The
business houses will arrange floats,
and a number Of allegorical floats

parade, and the entire afternoon
will be taken up with various
sports and am usements. An excel
lent quarter mile track will he built
on Grand street, between the Ar
tesian hotel and the opera house,
and some good purses will be hing
up TO be contested for by the best
horses in the country.
A canvass was made this week,
and enough funds are pledged to
make the celebration go without j..
hitch. the most Of the business men

Anarchy's Latest Victim.

The assassination of the Empress of
Austria is one of the most dabolical
crimes that has been perpetrated in
Europe since the execution of Marie
Antoinette. If there was one individu-
al among the families of the crown
heads of Europe who less deserved the
fate that befell her at Geneva it was
the wife Of Francis Joseph. Her life has
been one full of sorrow and tribulation.
Her son, the Crown Prince Rudolph,
who was the pride of her life and the
hope of her house, she saw descending
into a suicides grave, preceded as it
was by scandal which might break
any mothers heart. Her family at
fairs were as full of bitterness as her
state was exalted. Even her woman
hood and the innocence and purity of
her private life could not shield her
from the fatal blow Of the anarchists
dagger.
Anarchy in Europe has become a
menace not merely to thrones and
their occupants, but to the stability of
society. We are not advocates of
monarchical institutions. But the peo-
pie of those countries in which mon
archy exists nave right to sustain

Under Which Flapp

The Philadelphia Press does not
want Republican speakers i'm the pres
ent state campaign to refer to the
past benefits of Republican admins
tratior, eloquent as those results are
in testifying to the Republican par
tvs fitness for continued confidence
and in refutation of the malicious mis-
representations of the Republican
partys present enemies in Pennsyl-
vania. The Press finds these refer
ences embarrassing to its purpose of
abetting party disorganization. 1t
therefore proposes that each legisla-
tive candidate be made to tell whether
he is for or against the Quay
machine; in other words, whether he
is willing to support for reelection the
senior senator from this state and thus
help to continue in a position of public
usefulness the ablest politician and
most successful party leader that the
Republican party in Pennsylvania has
ever produced, or cast his lot with the
political nondescripts now following
the fortunes of a notorious malcontent
whose antagonism against Quay dates
from the time that Quay declined to
lend aid to his personal ambition for
high office
The proposition OF the Press is in a
certain sense insolent, since it implies
that the Republican legislative candi-

Opening of the School Year.

The re-opening of the public schools
today will not be so exciting as are
some events that will claim attention
in the field of politics and statesman
ship but when we analyze these lar
ger problems we find that our ability
to deal with them depends very large
ly unon the pablo instruction impart-
ed to the youth Of this country in
their common schools. Potentially no
event likely to occur on this bright
Monday anywhere between the poles
will be so important to Scrantonians
as will the beginning of another year
of training for the citys young.
We are glad to he able to say that,
making due allowance for inevitable
shortcomings and some defects toler-
ated in Difference to custom, the schools
of this city are efficient nurseries Of
a better citizenship. on the whole
their corps of teachers are intelligent
devoted to their work and possessed of
the capacity for steady Improvement.
The machinery of the schools, too-by
which term we mean buildings, text
books and appliances-is in good con-
dtion and there is no reason to doubt
that in point of receptivity the pupils
who shall gather today for the re-
sumption of educational work will
rank as peers of the average the coun-
try over.
But in one important essential some :
thing, we fear, is to he desired. There
is room for a larger and better CO.
operation between teachers and par
ents. The average householder who
would not keep q horse in a livery
stable without frequent personal in
spection of the animals care and sur
roundings is too prone to confde chill
dren TO the care Of the schools with
almost complete subsequent dismissal
of personal interest or responsibility.
And vet, devoted as the teacher may
be, the work of the school is neces-
sarily incomplete if deprived of patient
and sympathetic reinforcement in the
home.
The coming school year will be sue
cessful in proportion as the home and
school unite in the common battle for
better character and citizenship.

waving that feature we can see no inn
propriety in any friend OF Senator
Quay frankly avowing his preference
and accepting the entire responsibility
for 1t. Senator Quay at the present
time is the only candidate in the field.
He has opposition so far rs the VEN

can overtake him by defamation of his
character, misstatement of his pur-
poses and expenditure of large sums
Of money in various districts with a
view to promoting party discord and

has no opposition yet in the form of a
man fair enough and brave enough to
plant his candidacy for United states
senator full in the open. The oprosi-
ton up to this time, with election day
less than two months distant, is sim
ply vengeful vindictive and predatory.

for Withholding a preference until full

A WINTER RESORT.


"As a resort for pleasure seekers or
those desiring a delightful winter eli
mate, Porto Rico will be very attrac-
tive so soon as direct and fast steam
ship lines and American hotels supply
some OF the comforts to which the peo-
pie of the United States have becomr
accustomed. The constant breeze from
the sea by day and the land at night
renders the climate a fairly comfort
able one even in August. and the op-
portunity to obtain almost any desired
altitude coupled with the mineral
springs, which are said to abound, will
make the island attractive to those
seeking health as well as recreation.
"In the cities and towns the success
sion of strange sights and sounds pre-
sents Kaleidoscope and always in
teresting spectacle. The street ven
ders, carrying their stores upon their
heads or in huge panniers up
on\ diminutive ponies, announce
their wares in strange and not
unmusical cries, long lines of rude
carts drawn hy broad-horned bullocks
crowd the streets, native women smok~
ing black cigars fit hither and thither
nude children of all colors and ages
below eight disport themselves uncon-
cernedly upon the sidewalks and
streets, while soldiers and officers are
everywhere, busy with their duties es-
tablishing order and new conditions
On the country roads the succession of
mountains and valleys covered with
tropical growth, dashing mountain
streams and overhanging cliffs and the
large sugar and coffee plantations
dotted with the tiny houses of their
native workmen present a panorama
of constant interest.
Porto Rico now resumes, politically,
the relations with this continent, which
long ago existed physically Torn by
great natural movements from the
mainland of which this chain of islands
doubtless formed part, she is now re-
stored by another great natural move
ment which is reuniting the continents
and countries and islands in a system
of republics having one great purpose
OF co-oepraticn and mutual advance
ment. Alone she can furnish but a
small part of the tropical supplies for
which we have been accustomed to
send 250 millions dollars abroad each
year. but with the cooperation of un-
developed Cuba, Hawaii and the Phil
pines, should they fall within our bor-
ders, would enable us to expend among
vast sum which we have heretofore
been compelled to send to foreign land
and foreign people"
