he murmured at last.

"Do you think you can fill the posi-
ton, Miss Baxter?'' asked the propri-
etor doubtingly.
"Oh, l am sure of itl' answered the
girl.
Mr.. Hardwick smiled grimly. The
proprietor turned to him and said, II

beginning next Saturday and con-

print weekly a series of valuable let
ters on Municipal Affairs" written by
Mr.. William S. Crandall, editor of
City Government the organ of the
League of American Municipalities.
Mr. Crandall has spent two years and
Travelled several thousand miles in the
collection of statistics and other in
formation relating TO municipal con-

letters will be replete with timely in
struction. The belief is held by many
that Scranton will become a second
class city under better conditions than
have recently prevailed. 1t certainly
will if the work of the Municipal
league is carried through as planned.
These letters by Mr. Crandall will
supply data for numerous improve

business in Scranton and they will de-
serve to be read with care. The topic

II HE NOMINATION of Richard
Yates by the Republicans of
Illinois strangely filed out the
trinity Of public men who are dele
gates to the general conference of the
Methodist church now in session in this
city. One of them, Shaw, of Iowa, is a
present governor; another, Pattison, of
Pennsylvania, is a former governor;
and now Yates has been made a pros
pective governor. The number of men
now prominent in public life who are
members of the Methodist church is
surprisingly large. Beginning with the
present occupant of the White House,
there is a long list or senators, con-
gressmen, governors and other officials
who are stanCh adherents of the doct-
rines taught by John Wesley. To go
no farther than Indiana, for instance,
the Republicans have nominated as
candidate for governor Col Winfield T.
Durbin of Anderson, who, like Judge
Yates, is a consistent Methodist. Like
Mr.. Yates again, Colonel Durbin is
teacher in a Methodist Sunday-school.
He has even acted for a year or two
as superintendent of the Sunday school
of the First church of Anderson, of
which he is a member.
o
Both Of the United States senators
from Indiana are Methodsts. Stranger
still, both Senator Fairbanks and Sena-
tor Beveridge are connected with the
same church-the Meridian street
church of Indianapolis Both senators
serve the church Is trustees. Among

house of congress G.. w. Faris of Terre
| Haute is active in church work, while
Congressman Steele and Watson have

! that when he was inaugusated he over

West Virginia Is another state the
governor of which is consistent
Methodist. George W. Atkinson comes
of a Methodist family, as is shown by
the fact that his middle name Is wes-
ley. He was educated at the Ohio
Wesleyan University, from which he
graduated in 1870, afterward taking
the degree of Phi. H., LII. D., and u. c.
j.. from different institutions OF learn
Ing. Governor Atkinson has been
prominent in church work and has
written n history of Methodlsm in the
state under the title of the pulpit
in West Virginia" In the south there
are a number of prominent public men
who are members of the Southern
branch of the Methodist church. Among
them Is Governor Allen ID. Gambler,
who Is the chief executive of Georgia,
Governor Gambler, who also served for
eight years as a representative in
congress- Is a brother of Warren A.
Gambler, bishop of the Methodist church
South, and president of Emory college.

Palmer for Congress.

YIN y CHARACTERISTICALLY
vigorous open letter to the cleo
Il tors of Luzerne county, eX-At-
torney General Henry w. Pal
mer announces his candidacy for the
Republican nomination for congress
in the Twelfth district. He declares
for protection to American industries
and labor and for a sound and stable
currency, and adds:
81 believe the people are willing
that capital shall combine it's energies
to carry out great enterprises that
are too costly for individual effort, but
they are not willing that any set of
men shall monopolize the production
or distribution of the necessaries of
life, or deny to any man the privilege
Of doing business. They are willing
that labor shall organize for self pro-
lection and to better the condition of
the workers, but they are not willing
that any man shall be denied the right
to pursue his own happiness in his
own way, or that any great essential
privilege of free government shall be
set at defiance. l believe they favor
a governmental policy which shall
maintain the power and honor of the
nation at home and abroad, and
which shall never desert or dshOnor
any man who wears the Union blue
and stands in defense of the Stars
and Stripes in any land under the
shining stars"
To this strong platform he contrib
utes one other plank. "All men whose
opinions are entitled to respect agree"
he says, that the purchase Of public
office is degrading to all concerned,
the buyer and the bought, and that,
unless checked, will in the end ruin
the republic. 1t is a custom more
honored in the breach than the OBJ
servance.' 1t is the chief agency by
which the political boss clinches his
grasp upon the party machinery and
trenches on the right of the people to
elect their own rulers. 1t nurtures a
brood of vampires who fasten on all
candidates and render the attainment
of high public positions substantially
impossible for a poor man. To at
tempt to get rid of it and to demon
strate that an election can be held
without it is worth a trial 1 propose
to offer myself as a candidate for con-
gress' with the distinct declaration
that no more than my share of the
legitimate necessary legal expenses
of the campaign shall be paid by me,
and that with my consent no money
shall be paid to influence any vote
or voter"
General Palmer has the ability, the
experience and widespread acquain-
tance with public men which would
make him a formidable representa-
tive in congress.

whereabouts of President Kruger in

to advocate or oppose measure,
him In antagonism to the declared
policy of the administration, nor would
he even respond to an invitation from
committee to appear under such cir
cumstances. But there are numerous
instances of foreign ministers appear
ing before committees of congress, just
as Minister Wu appeared a few days
ago. l remember to have seen the
Italian minister at the capitol before
members of the ways and means
committee curing the consideration of
tariff bill, the purpose of his visit
being to furnish facts and arguments
against the imposition of duty on
paintings and sculptures. And I re-
call a visit from the Austrian minis
ter to the room of the ways and
means committee in connection with
bill relating to the value of the
florin. In each case the visit was VOL
untary on the part of the minister.
Other instances might be cited where
ministers were invited to the capitol
without the Intervention of the state
department TO furnish information
that was desired in connection with
pending legislation. The communica-
tion of foreign ministers with commit
tees of congress is, of course capable
of serious abuse, but the representa-
tives of foreign governments are men
of large and varied experience with
the affairs of government. familiar
with the usages that obtain in
methods of communication, fully ap-
precate tn, value of cultivating the
most cordial relations with the gov
ernment to which they are accredited,
and are not likely to pass the boun-
dairy Of strict propriety, nor to make
such a blunder as has been erron-
eously attributed to Minister WI"
The American style of diplomacy
has long been famous for its disre-
gard of red tape. When it has had
an object in view, it has gone toward
it in q straight line, scorning the
twists, sinuosities and circumlocutlons
characteristic of the old style diplo-
macy of continental Europe. Our ex-
ample has grown in favor among per-
sons who put common sense and eff
ficiency above precedents. Why is not
Minister Wu's plan of placing infor-
nation Immediately where it belongs
good innovation for Americans to
indorse?
