The Crawford County System.

1t is ruinored that at today's Re-
publican city convention an attempt
will be made to push through without
consideration resolution adopting in
future city campaigns what Is known
as the Crawford county system Of
party primaries. However admirable
the Crawford county system may be.
such an artiOn as is contemplated
would be precipitate in view of the
fact that a subcommittee appointed by
the last Republican county convention
to formulate an adaptation of that sys-
TEN for submission to the next county
convention. is now at work upon it's
report, which will soon be published.
In a matter of such importance as Il
change in the party rules the ground
should be wel measured
There has been an attempt to invest
this matter With IA factional tinge, but
it has no warrant. Those credited with
q directing voice IN the present Re
publican county organization are as
anxious as are any other class of cit-
zens to secure Il free, full and fair eX
preston of the party will at the party
primaries, and to tins end they most
cordially welcome suggestions of i'm
provement. 1t needs to be borne in
mind, however, that no change in the
methods of conducting primaries can
deprive an honest majority of the
voters of the Republican party of the
right to name candidates and frame
platforms. and so long as this remains
true no ambitious minority can mount
to noWer by notifications of the party
rules.
The Crawford county system. suit

any other system giving party senti-
mcnt better chance to register itself
freely and without intimidation at the
party cauCuses--let it he tried by all
means if after due consideration there
appears to be reasonable promise of
Improvement. But such action should
be based only on careful deliberation
and not on the mere hasty impulse
which reCkOnS naught of consequences.
In conclusion we may add that what
ever viii satisfy the intelligent Opin-
ion Of the Republican masses Of Scran-
ton and Lackawanna county will sat

NOW OR NEVER.
ON the Evening Post.

From the Evening Post.
The condition of Cuba is that of "a
country that has been deprived of it's
means of livelihood more or less COM
pletely for four consecutive years. What
ever we may think of the contending par
ties on the island, the fact remains that
the inhabitants of large districts have
been and are still prevented from earn
ing their living. In other large districts
the crops have been swept away by the
torch as soon as they were ready for the
harvest, and not only the crops, but the
machinery and buildings necessary for
handling future crops. In short the in
habitants of these districts are In a con-
dtion of desperate poverty, and if not
rescued by outside assistance will starve
to death. Is not this a case which ap-
peals powerfully to the hearts of the
benevolent in the United States? These
famiShing people are our near neighbors.
They have been endowed most literally
with our sympathy. We have been on
the point of going to war for their sup
posed benefit. Fortunately, we have en-
iOyed the blessings of peace and a fair
measure of prosperity. Shall we not help
them now in a way that leaves no doubt
full questions to be settled hereafter? To
feed the hungry and clothe the naked Is
always right. If we do not help them
now we may never have another oppor-
tunity.

A HEALTHY GAIN.
From the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
1t appears from a review of the pro-
gress of the churches in this country dur
ing the last year. which appears in the
Independent, that there has been a
healthy gain in churches and ministers
of the various denominations. This gain
extends to all the considerable denom-
nations. The proportionate increase is
especially large and particularly strik-
ing among the Mormons. or Latter Day
Saints, being from $4,000 to 297,37O; or
$3.50. The Mormons, therefore, are near
ly half as many as the Congregational
lists, 6S0,0O0, or the Episcopalian COM
municants, 65S, $40.
The Roman Catholics comprise about
one-third of the 25,9l9027 religious COM
municants enumerated in the Union. The
various bodies of Methodists have 5,735-
S9S and of Baptists 4,175300 Next come
in order the Lutherans, 1,507 466 Presby-
terians, 1,490162 Disciples of Christ, L.
05l,079; Episcopalians, 65s,640; Congrega-
tionalists, 100000. The rest are scattered
among a multiplicity of denominations.

A SENSIBLE BILL.
From the Philadelphia Press.

A bill is to be introduced into the New
York legislature prohibiting the use of
hypnotism save at the hands of licensed
physicians. This is the kind of bill every
state should enact into law, as it would
be both salutary for the community and
for misguided individuals whose dips into
this branch of psychology should be re-
strained. Public exhibitions of hypnot-
ism will doubtless cease as the thing it,
self loses all mystery, as 1t is rapidly do
Ing; but it is wise to take no chances,
and the use of hypnotism should be
guarded as carefully as is the practice
of medicine and the sale of poisons.

From the Pittsburg Dispatch.
Congressman Connelrs reported victory
over Senator Quay is all the more re-

was a supporter of the senator in the
late craftsmanship fight, in opposition to
the congressman. The turns of politics
are complex and perplexing.

We may now dismiss the details of

needs to be understood that Judge Is
public servant and as such rigldly
accountable to public scrutiny. 1t is
not the province of a newspaper to
pass on the law points laid down by
him. for there are courts of review
clothed with this function; but It is
clearly within the right and duty OF
the press to consider the bearing of his
political appointments and of his at
frmations of opinion upon matters
broadly affecting the public welfare.
Comment touching these subjects
should be respectful of the judicial
office If not of the man filling It: but
there is nothing in law or propriety to
restrain the fair expression of an hon
est opinion concerning judge any
more than there is concerning a school
controller, senator or a dos consta-

legitimate and wholesome criticism by

THE Providence Journal after a

ed fire again on Sunday. it was a fu-
silade of ''chestnutS," but it showed,
if proof is still needed, how ear
nestly this great paper is looking out
for the best interests Of Johnston
and its citizens. @ Possibly, these
thoughts have passed through the
minds of people in this section,-
"Why is the Journal so solicitous in
this matter; what is its motive in
It's endeavor to bring about annexa-
ton" The Journal has never been
noted for its pure and unadultered
philanthropy, hence people are
always looking beneath the surface
for the motive that actuates its moves.
The TIMES has been at loss to
imagine what could be the .'cat in
the meal" until recently it was in
formed that rumor is going the
rounds to the effect that the Journal
reporter who covers this section, for
some real or fancied wrong, once
said that in order to "get square"
with certain Johnston politicians he
would force the annexation scheme
to a successful issue. Just when
or how this big VOW was registered
we know not, in fact if it was ever
made, but Dame RumOr so hath it,
and recent facts rather point to its
confirmation ; for it was an attache of

the Journal who started the anneXa-
ton ball to rolling and became the
head of the self constituted COM
mittee that has carried the matter
thus far. The Journal columns have
been given unsparingly to annexa-
ton discussion. If the rumor is true
we doubt if Johnston people are
willing to lend themselves to the use
of a newspaper reporter who wishes
to "get square, with somebody.
Some one said in the Continental
Congress when the Declaration of
independence was being discussed:
"This step once taken cannot be re-
traced" So the annexation step
once taken cannot be altered; once
IN the city, the people are in for life /;
there can be no divorce. So it
should be taken deliberately and So
berly, weighing every pro and con.
In so weighty matter the initiative
should be taken by people having
the most at stake, and anger and
pique should give place to calm
reason.
