"A INDUSTRIOUS ABSURDsTY."

Many Good Democrats Opposed to the
"Grand-sou OF His G-and-fa her" Con-
scitutiouaI Amendment Clause,
The correspondent of the Char
lotte Observer, writing to that paper
from Fayetteville, under date of
March 4th, says:
The Observer correctly guages pub
lie sentiment in throwing out a word
of warning against taking for grant
ed the carrying st the ballot box of
the suffrage constitutional amend
ment. 1t will require hard work from
the rank and file and leaders of the
party. There is certainly nc cloud
on the title of the Cape Fear Dem
ocracy to orthodoxy, but the writer
is surprised at the number of lead
ing Democrats whom he meets or
posed to the amendment. The clause
about the grand son of his grand
father" Is especially decried as a
monstrous absurdity.
The suffrage amendment referred
to above, which was adopted by the
last Legislature, is as follows:

Occasionally you will hear a voter who is
earnestly for Mckinley and Roosevelt say
lie is not for Mr.. Conncll. How ridiculous! How
inconsistent! What would Mr. Mckinley do as
president without his party in power in con.
gress? Mr.. Connell certainly has proved his
worthiness as member Of congress. He has
been faithful to duty No member has done
better. He is for protection to American indus.
tries; he is for 1OO.cent dollar; he is for up.
holding the dignity and honor of the American
flag everywhere. Mr.. Mckinley has the love and
esteem OF his party because he was for these
grand principles. Mr.. Connell has been un.
swerving in his loyalty to the president and the
policies of his party.
Where would Mr.. Conry be? What would he
do? He would be with the Democrats, not with
Mr.. Mckinley. Mr.. Conry would vote for free
trade; he would vote for free silver; he would
vote to take the American flag down from Manila
or do anything else that the Democratic con.
gressional caucus would determine. That's what
every Democrat who went from these regions
did. They voted for free trade and every other
destructive falacy, regardless Of consequence,
that the Democrats advocated.
Mr.. Connell will vote to build up our indus.
tries.
Mr.. Conry will vote to close and destroy them.
Mr.. Connell will vote for the 100.Cent dollar.
Mr.. Connell will vote for the 50.cent dollar.
That's the sum and substance Of it.
1t is measures not men that are most import
ant. 1t is what the candidates will do when
elected that concerns U.s.
The Republican party is particularly fortunate
this year in having first class ticket to back
up the grand, progressive, upbuidng, prosperity.

In fhe Interest
Of Fair Play

Editor vi Inc Tribune
Sir: have noticed statements and dcnials in
certain papers calculated to question the efforts
and prominent part taken by Hon. William Con.
nell in the successful ending Of the recent miners
strike. Always having been in favor Of giving
credit where Il is justly due. and some facts in
connection with tho matter having come directly
to my notice, 1t is a pleasure to make them
known to the public in the interest Of truth and
Justice.
During the sojourn Of President Mitchell and
Mr.. Dileher in Scranton it was my pleasure with
other friends to meet socially on several occa.
sions these popular leaders. to become acquaint.
ed with their many good qualities, and to learn
directly OF their great work in the interest OF
labor, and In bringing the strike to successful
end. On one Of these occasions after the strike
was ended, Mr.. Connell's name was mentioned
in connection with the part he took in bringing
the strike TO a successful issue and both Mr..
Mitchell and Mr.. Dilcher spoke in the highest
terms of Mr.. Connell's Efforts ana were enthusi-
astc in their praises Of his devoted and unsclfish
interest in the matter. Those who know Mr..
Connel best (and the employees Of his own
mines are among thcse) appreciate that in this.
as we'll as in everything else pertaining to the
prosperity and welfare OF the city, state and
nation. he is always found with his shoulder to
the wheel upon the side Of right and Justice.
Yours truly,

Keystone State in
the Census Returns

From the Pittsburg Times
STUDY OF the 1000 census figures so far
~ published, reveals some interesting facts
"A regarding the population Of Pennsylvania.
Ono Of these, il one may trust the testi.
inony Of the cities, is that the eastern half OF
the state Is growing about as fast as the western
half. To be sure, no community in Eastern
Pennsylvania shows such a percentage Of In.
crease as New Castle, with Its 1i430 per cent,
but that is exceptional and typical OF nothing.
being due to the fact that the gain, some 10000,
must be computed on the comparatively small
population Of 1l,60o in 1890. Other cities, both
in Eastern and Western Pennsylvania, have made
much larger actual gains, but their percentage
Of growth remains very much smaller. For this
reason, 4nd in order TO hold the balance fairly
between the two sections Of the state, New
Castle is omitted in the computation of average
percentages Of growth given below. II its fig.
ures so large in percentage but comparatively
small actual population, are incluocd In the
western quota. the result, OF course, will be
materially changed in favor of the western
cities
According to the bulletins from Washington
there are eighteen cities In Pennsylvania whose
population exceeds 25,OO0 These follow. with
the figures Of 1890, the actual increase in the
decade and the percentage Of increase:
