Imperialism the Supreme Issue.

The Democratic party has not made
imperialism the paramount issue of
this campaign. The stubborn facts in
the recent history of this country and
the maladministration of the Mckinley
regime in the Philippines have forced
the question to position of promi-
nence which forbids the people to ig-
more it in choosing chief magistrate.
The issue is made paramount not by
the wishes Of a few members of any
particular party, but because by all
the laws of logic it is the question of
first Importance to the people.
As Mr., Bryan very truly said in his
letter of acceptance, the settlement of
the numerous questions which involve
the domestic and economic welfare of
the nation must be of secondary impor-
tance until the doctrine that the people
are the only source of power is made
secure from further attack. The Nc
Kinley administration and the Repub-
lican party have asked the people of
this country to eXpunge from the con-
stitution the fundamental principle
uDOl NllISh tNtl lltt anu uHll dllllltl-
led government must rest. When the
people decide that they can do without
the clause "the people derive their just
powers from the consent of the govern
ed" we are ready for new constitu-
tion and new form of government
founded upon might instead of right.
The shufIling of the Republican plat
form in regard to the Philippines and
the government of Porto Rico deceives
no one. The platform builders were
set the difficult task of covering an
ugly and naked truth with fair and
specious rhetorical clothing. But the
truth persists in exhibiting its naked
ness in spite of its silken trappings
and of its own volition takes its place
in the position of supreme Importance,
refusing to be relegated to the rear.
Imperialism is the one paramount issue
of this campaign and the only refuge
offered the people from its menace is
found in the platform of the Demo-
cratic party.

OWE A DEBT OF GRATITUDE.

The North American congratulates
the miners upon their victory. They
will not be made rich by it, to be sure,
but at least they will be better off than
they were before. The dinner pail will
be fuller. The mine-owners are also to
be congratulated on having yielded
congratulations would be warmer and
better deserved had they yielded sooner
had they acted at first like reasonable
men and consented to the arbitration of
differences for which their employees
asked. 1t was concern for their dignity
we believe, that impelled the mine
owners to reject arbitration. 1t is not
apparent that arbitration could possibly
have been more Christening to pride
than is making terms under the compul-
sion of strike.
Though the Mine Workers Union has
not been formally recognized by the en-
ployers, it has now become a great and
potent fact in the anthracite region,
where it must henceforth be taken into
account. This is~a tremendous gain for
the men. They owe debt of gratitude
to President Mitchell for the cool. firm
and intelligent leadership which he has
given them.-Phila. North American.

Daughters of Revolution.

The Daughters of the American Rev
olution are at Wilkesbarre in large
numbers to attend the state convention
of the order. All the important matters
that will come before the convention
will be the raising of funds for club
house for United States soldiers at
Manila and appointment of committee
to act with and as members of the Val
ley Forge National Park Association for
the purpose of aiding that body in its
project to preserve Valley Forge as a
national park.

for them success.
John Mitchell in particular has shown
qualities of a very high order, that
should make him not only an Influential
but most valuable man in directing
the organization of labor to harmonious,
peaceful and orderly relations with all
the great interests of the country
That labor disputes ought always to be
harmoniously adjusted all admit; that
they can be, even under such compli-
Gated conditions as exist in the anthra-
cite region, has been demonstrated by
this strike.
The victory is not for class ;merely,
but for all who believe in the dignity of
labor and in the justice and good sense
of the American people. 1t marks an
other step forward in industrial prog
ress and it cannot but have a lasting eff
feet for good.-Phila. Times.

A western newspaper exposes the fall
Isry of the full dinner pail" argument
of Senator Hanna in clever cartoon,
showing an X-ray picture of the dinner
pail. The X-ray reveals the contents
Of the pail in the shape of small cards
marked:
Cost of flour increased 20 per cent.
Cost of meat increased 80 per cent.
Cost of sugar, coffee, salt, increased
rs per cent.
Cost of rent increased 80 per cent.
Cost of clothing increased 20 per cent.
Cost of shoes increased Is per cent.
Cost of medicines increased 20 per
cent.
Cost of matches increased 40 per
cent.
And so on through the long list of
everything a workingman needs for
himself or family.
There are other things to be consid-
cred in the full dinner pail argument
beside the mere question of what goes
into that pail. If the consumer must
pay an increased price for all necessi-
ties of life it will be apparent to the
most casual observer that he will have
to receive a very large increase in
wages or he will be in a worse position
than when he was getting a smaller
amount of money but could buy more
with it. Is it a fact at all that the con-
sumer is being paid more money than
formerly? Some labor, it is true, is
commanding higher remuneration, but
there are hundreds of thousands of
men in all the walks of life who are
not being paid for their work more
than formerly. The great army of
clerks and statesmen and saleswomen
has been practically unaffected as to
their salaries for years. What they
know about the administration of Pres
ident Mckinley is that they have been
forced to pay more for the articles
they must have. This is their person
al knowledge Of the prosperous times
which have been so persistently talked
about
A little patient analysis of the exist
ing conditions is all that is necessary
to show the weak points in this excuse
of the Republican party for the perpet-
uation of the Mckinley administration.
If the present national controlling
power had brought about an increase of
wages unaccompanied by an abnormal
increase in the cost of living there
would be some merit in the claim of
prosperity, some justification for the
full dinner pail campaign cry. AS it is,
this is what the application of the x
ray to the full dinner pail reveals
costly food and unreceipted rent bills.

OPERATORS ADMIT TIE VICTORY.

The operators admit that the miners
have gained everything they demanded,
and that their victory is the most com
plete ever won by strike in the an
thracite coal regions. There will be
great rejoicing among all classes of
people throughout the anthracite coun-
ties, that this great strike will end so
soon and so satisfactorily. The miners
themselves will hail with gladness the
official notice that the strike is ended.
Happily this contest has not been pro-
longed sufficiently to impoverish them,
and this of itself is cause for rejoicing

RECOGNITION WILL COME.

The companies and operators are to
be congratulated on having seen their
way clear to break the deadlock in the
mining industry. Congratulations are
also due to the miners on the orderly
speaking of them as a whole
in which they conducted themselves
during the tie-up. When $50, 900 men
are idle (and among so large number
even small percentage of vicious and
uncomfortable would make quite a for
midable body some collisions with
authority are almost inevitable. At no
time did any real need for the inter-
ference of state troops arise, and the
powers of the local civil authorities were
quite adequate for the emergency.
President Mitchell, of the United
Mine Workers, deserves recognition for
the tact and skill displayed by him
throughout the struggle. His acts were
well timed and effective, and he used
his influence with rare discretion. Par
ticularly praiseworthy was his insight
into the fact that all the advantages of
united action could be obtained for the
members of the organization of which
he is the head without enforcing the
recognition" of the United Mine Work
ers, and without intruding himself be-
tween the employers and their employees.
Recognition of the association will
probably follow when the employers
shall have discovered that it would be
mutually beneficial to themselves and to
the workers to treat with that body.
Such discovery has already been made
in the case of the Brotherhood of Loco
motive Engineers and of the United
Mine Workers itself throughout the vast
bituminous coal region.-Phila. Record.
