Upon the only test vote at Kansas city ma.
iorty Of the Pennsylvania delegation supported
the free silver plank--The Times.
The Pennsylvania representative on
the platform committee voted against
Bryan's free silver plank and the dele
cation as a whole unanimously adopt
ed the Pattison resolution lodging an
explicit avowal. Hence it is evident
that the Democracy of Pennsylvania Is
eager to forget its free silverish past.
This is shown by Brother Lynett's
own paper, which, having in four years
been on both sides of that question,
now tries to rclegate the whole matter
to oblivion. Not convictions but tricks
to catch votes seem to be the chief
characteristic of the Organized Democ-
racy. 1t strongly resembles opera
bouffe,

particular effort has been made to
bring out a large vote. The average
Republican plurality in the past seven

- fessor Atwater of Wesleyan
- university have established
from a scientific standpoint
that the cheaper and as a rule coarser
food of the poor mans table Is richer
in nutritive qualities than the daintier
viands of the rich. Professor At
waters report" says a press dispatch,
contains a scathing rebuke to the
manner of living among the wealthy
in that there is three times as much
food wasted as there is eaten. In gem
eral he finds that the American people
could get twice as nutritious food for
about half the money that they are
now paying"
This is notoriOusly true, and the
worst feature of it is that no signs of
improvement are visible. Gourmand-
izing is a vice Of increasing magnitude.
Restaurants and hotels encourage it by
Offering menus which for widespread
variety would put to blush the menus
of a court banquet in the time Of
Queen Elizabeth or Louis XIV. Even
I'm the homes of people only moder-
ately we'll to do the tendency is away
from intelligent economy in foods
Where health and strength can best
be promoted by inexpensive and simple
preparations the fashion is to strive
for complicated culinary effects, and
both digestion and pockethook suffer
in consequence. Although nutrition to-
day is cheaper than ever before, the
"cost of living" is higher and the diff
ference represents more of social pride
or vanity than anything else.
The American people inhabit a rich
land whose resources are by no means
| exhausted or even half-developed,
therefore they can, better than most
| folks, stand the factor of expense; but
| that is not the worst factor. There is
reason 10 fear that our women have
not the vigorous health and freedom
| from bodily ailments that their grand
mothers had; and among men the
prevalence of nervousness Is perhaps
as largely due to overtaXing the digest
| i've mechanism. with resultant damage
TO the sympathetic nerves and poverty
of blood, as to changes in details OF

Tribune defined the need
4 " "A of Taxpayers associa-
ton in Scranton and 1t
naturally views with qualification the
announcement that Mr.. John NJ. KEN
merer intends to bring before the
board of trade the question of the for
nation of one. This should have been
done years ago; it is a policy which
has been advocated insistently by this
paper, and now that Scranton is like
ly soon to become a second class city
necessitating a reconstruction of its
machinery of government, the time Is
ripe for seaSonable and vigorous ef-
forts to introduce system, economy
and ordinary honesty into the transac-
ton of the city's business.
The men who run our city govern
ment are neither as good as they
should be nor as black as they have
been painted; most of them do as the
average man would do in the same
circumstances. Nothing is to be ac-
cOmplished for improvement in
methods by simply calling names at
them. There has been, however, a
great deal of carelessness and confu-
sion in the doing of the city's busi-
ness precedents have arisen which
are eXtravagant, wasteful of time and
contrary to common sense; Peter has
been relentlessly robbed to pay Paul,
not so much because of i'll will toward
Peter as on the ground of convenience;
fD m n, Of IN inf
there has, amidst all this carelessness,
been a weakening of the civic con-
science of some Of our officials until
men who would scorn to do a dishonest
| act in private life fall into the vicious
habit of regarding the public welfare
as a commodity of trade. Most of our
boodlers are men primarily of good
intent gone wrong through public neg
leCt Honesty in some men can stand
alone and in others it has to be safe
guarded. There is today nothing in
the city of Scranton calculated to boil
ster up the wavering honesty of the
public official whose preference is to
do the right thing, but who finds the
temptations to dishonesty to be very
in the direction of the strongest pres
sure.
A Taxpayers association, If made up
| of honest, earnest and experienced
men, not cranks or theorists, would
constitute a nucleus around which the
| better impulses in municipal life could
rally. 1t would afford an organization
of the reputable influences which now,
being disorganized, are too often su-
bordinate to the disreputable influences.
1t would amount to nothing if appro-
priated to factional or selfish ends and
hence a great deal of it's usefulness
would depend upon the character of
the men at it's head. But there are
plenty of good men of honest purpose
and horse sense who might be in
duced to look upon service Cf tn kind,
under existing and prospective condi-
tions, as representing a public duty,
and it is to be hoped that these men
will be arrayed in line for municipal
repairs.

In the United States who will not sustain Mr..
Bryan in the policy he has laid down They
do not doubt the capacity Of the American peo.
pie to solve any problem that may be presented
To them; they are not afraid Of meeting squarely
any situation that may arise; they love then
country; they are proud Of the capacity Of their
countrymen TO govern wisely and well; and they
love their flag, hate those who Hght against il,
and have nothing but contempt for those poii
cal leaders who advocate n policy Of cowardy

angled in the vicinity of the Della

fined $50 for taking three bass that
measured less than nine inches in

similar punishment. They are seldom
on record as taking bass that weigh
less than three pounds each.
