Poor Bryan's soul is being tried in va
rious ways these days. Even silver is go
ing back on him. 1t is going up like all
other things, especially wages, in these
days of Republican prosperity. Bryan
got bad blow just after his defeat in
1896, when wheat and many other COM
modites advanced in price. The adj
vance, as everyone knew, was largely
due TO his overthrow. year or so after
ward, when Republican legi gi,lation began
to operate, wages started upward. Now
silver has joined the procession. The con-
sequence of this last advance will be that
lift continues much longer Bryan will
have to drop talking about silver. When
silver goes above the SOC dollar line, as
it may do if the advance continues a lit
tie longer, he will have to abandon it. II
is not a silver dollar primarily that he
wants for the wage earners Of the coun-
try, but dishonest dollar. The moment
that silver gets above the SOC dollar mark
his faith in it will begin to wane. 1t will
be getting too near the honest money
line then to be of much use in his busi-
ness. If we are to have the l6 to | trick
cry in the canvass of 1900 silver will have
to start downward long before that time

THE sale by Andrew Carnegie of Pitts
burg of all his interests in the extensive
steel works with which he has been con-
nected, to H. c. Frick was consummated
last week, the consideration being report
ed at Sl00,0OO,0OO. Mr.. Carnegie's rea-
sons for selling are said to be an aversion
to entering trust, which it is proposed
to form out of the great steel concerns Of
this country. A company capitalized al
$500, 100000 has been planned. which if il
goes through will absorb about every
thing in that industry. These are prodig.
ious figures and it would almost seem
must fall beneath their own weight.

THERE has been an increase of sl.76
per capita in the circulation of the coun-
try in the past twelve months. 1t now
amounts to S25.45. Business is gaining
at rapid rate, but the growth in the
currency keeps pace with it. Moreover
the money which is in circulation is all so
safely anchored to the gold standard that
the people prefer all other sorts of it to
the actual gold coin. This is a widely
different sort of condition from that
which prevailed in 1896, when Bryan was
making his assault on the monetary sta
bility of the country. The Republican
victory in that year is responsible for the
business activity and expanding cur
rency. So long as the Republicans re-
main in power the financial and general
business conditions will remain satislac-
tory. Happily the indications are that
they will control the government for
raany. wears tn come

The Executive Committee of the
"Honest Government" party, that ran
DIR. Swallow for Governor last year, and
succeeded in cutting down Mr.. jerks
vote considerably, has gone out of bus
mess, disbanded and quit politics. Be-
fore disbanding financial statement was
given the public showing an expenditure
of about $4,000, figure that indicates
that the modern reformer finds it neces-
sary to keep the machinery well oiled if
any kind of political work is TO be ac-
complished. $4,000 is a pretty round
sum when it is considered what was ac-
complished in winning votes, not to take
into account the much larger sums ex
pended by individual attempts to help on
the cause.-BrookUiLe Republican.

odile tears are rolling down the cheeks ol
the Democratic and mugwump editors
these days, over the removal by Gov.
ernor Stone of John c. Delaney, Superin-
tendent of public grounds and buildings
at Harrisburg. For the past fifteen years,
ever since Delaney has held fat position
"on the Hill, these same editors have
been lampooing him right and left, but
now that Mr.. ID clancy has had quite
enough ola good thing they pretend to
believe it is an awful bad slap at a veteran
soldier. It's wonder these tear-stained
mugs hadn't thought of this when they
were heaping vilest ISLANDERS upon the
now officially decapitated Delaney.

DIPLOMATIC relations between the
United States and Spain will be resumed
within few days. A Spanish Minister
will be in Washington and an American
representative will be in Madrid in few
days. This will be pleasant occasion
for the two countries. War is exceeding
ly disagreeable to the United States, as it
is 10 all other civilized nations. The
conditions in this country will undoubt-
edly be made particularly agreeable for
the new Spanish diplomat.

The attempt of Edward Atkinson of
Boston to send to our soldiers in Manila
pamphlets filled with reasonable matter
against the policy of the government in
its treatment of the Filippnos is referred
to by the N. Y. Tribune as follows: per
haps it is after all, best that the govern
ment should for the present be thus leni-
ent with these amateur traitors. Really
it it is more severe with them than it
seems. For it is denying them the mar
tyrdom which some of them so much
crave 1t is preventing them from doing
the mischief in the Philippines which
they would so much like to do. And it is
splendidly expressing the contempt with
which it and the overwhelming majority
of the American people feel for them by
letting them go on with their spiteful
suffering all they please in this country,
where their insignifcance and impotence
and the utter falsity OF vituperation are
all well understood. All the same, they
will do uncommonly well to take this
long-delayed action of the government as
wholesome warning"

In his last statement Geo. K.Van Horn,
the murderer who was hanged at Scran
ton last Thursday, said: "To everyone
l would say: Leave the wine cup alone.
This has been the curse of my life. To
the young would beg them to shun evil
company. Had l needed the advice OF
the Book of Books l would not be here
to-day. would not have lived a life ofde-
bauchery if l had been true to my moth
ers counsel" This is good advice.

The Pittsburg Dispatch, one Of the most

knowledge through its Washington cor

GOVERNOR STONE is swinging the veto
axe in lively style these days. He has
till the Goth of this month in which to
pass upon the legislation left upon his
hands by the recent session, and with
his present rate of speed will finish up
long before that date. One of his latest
vetoes is the bill to prevent school di-
rectors from fixing the laries of county
superintendents at less than 81 800 per
annum. On this question the Governor
says: 81 am of the opinion that there is
no reason for presumng that the school
directors of any county are not capable Of
fixing the value of the services of the
county superintendent. In my judg-
ment there has been no such abuse OF
their prerogative in this particular as JUS
titles me in approving bill which is
reflection upon their intelligence or their
fairness" And it will doubtless occur
to the average mind that the Governors
head is level.

TUBERCULOSIS THE CAUSE.
Death of a Child Under Unusual
Circumstances.

Coroner Roberts was notified yester-
day that Anthony, the four year-old
son of Simon Yanneck, of rear of 319
Locust street. South Scranton, died at
noon Wednesday under rather suspic-
ious circumstances.
A Tribune man who called at the
home last night for information re-
garding the boys death. learned that
the child had suffered almost since his
birth from a large swelling of the left
cheek. His father said that he had the
boy to the Lackawanna hospital four
times and each trip an operation was
performed. He had him removed home
two months ago, and has not since then
afforded his child any medical aid
Undertaken Frank Banne, of upper
Lackawanna avenue, was not called to
prepare the body for burial until last
night, thirty hours after death oc-
Cured.
The coroner made an investigation
last night and ascertained that the
cause OF death was tuberculosis. He
issued a certificate of death in the
case.
