due regard for the safety and welfare
of the Union, and with the most Just,
generous, humane, and fraternal con-
sideration of those over whom the au-
thority of the nation is extended. We
advocate for them free schools, full
security of life, liberty, and prosper

peoples who are brought under our

1t will be noted that while this i'm
plies determination to hold the Phil
ippines, it fails to say so outspo<enly.
Nor is there any intimation as to the
future status of our foreign acquisi-
tions-whether they shall be held as
vassal States or as Territory of the
United States under the constitution,
whether they shall have free trade or
not, whether the Philippines shall be
held irrevocably at the cost of an in
definite continuance of bloody and
costly war and no end of complica-
tons and influences subversive of Re
publican institutions, or shall be
promised independence and dealt with
as we are dealing with Cuba,-these
mighty matters now dominating the
politics of the nation, are all lightly
dismissed in a general commentator
of what the administration has done
and whatever it may, do.
While such platform 1ssinnocent of
anything approaching honesty, it GER
tainly has the merit of leaving the
party's position open enough to per-
nit of modification or change if such
a course is found eNpedient.

THE SENATE'S REJECTION OF QUAY
(BoSton TraVeller.)

{Boston Traveller)
The action of the United States Seuate
yesterday, in refusing to seat Matthew
Stanley Quay is not of such nature as
should create any especial feeling of pride
in Americans. The vote whereby the pre-
tensions of the Pennsylvania boss We're
repudiate was so close that the credit
that would have attached to the Senate
fer his reputation by a more decisive
vote is absent. 1t is a curious thing to
note that the vote of Mark Hanna was
needed for the majority of one vote by
which Quay was refused his seat. Can
it be that the administration pilot has
thought it advisable at last to pose as
a worshipper of the goddess of Reform
or was his oppositin to Quay based upon
purelsy personal reasons due to jealousy
of rival Republican leader?
The case appears to have been settled
chiefly upon the constitutional questions
involved and not upon the record of Quay,
which is certainly NAL odorous enough
even for senatorial nausea On the con-
stitutional question there was some diff
ference of opinion, Senator Hoar, for eX-
ample, availng himself of legal techni-
cality to sustain his vote that he should
sustain the coveted seat. On the other
hand, Senator Vest, a longtm friend of
Mr.. Quay, voted against him. In its legal
aspects the case appears to us to admit
of but one Interpretation, that a deliber-
ate and unconstitutional attempt was
made by the Quay ring to override the
will of the Pennsylvania Legislature,
This body refused to elect Quay to the
70 no 6pGnpr1fp
lions in his behalf This created va
cancy and the Legislature adjourned
Then Governor Stone appointed Quay TO
the vacant seat despite a most vigorous
and general protest.
The Constitution is very clear in it's
provision that the Governor of State has
the power to appoint United States Sem
ator in case of a vacancy happening dur
ing recess Of the Legislature. But the
vacancy did not happen during a recess.
The Legislature was in session and failed
to elect Senator simply and solely be-
cause Quay, as Republican boss, had pow
er enough to prevent the election OF
another, but was not strong enough 70
compass his own choice. After the Legis-
lature adjourned he made the Governor his
tool and secured an appointment which
was not worth the paper it was written
upon. The Senate, as the judge of its
own members. has sustained the Consti-
tuition, but by so narrow margin that
satisfaction over the result is tempered
by regret that the Senators are not more
generally heedful of the dictates of right.
1t is safe to say that on the mere tech
meal questions Quay would have won.
1t is his reputation that he has to thank
for his defeat. His effrontery in the
game of politics has long made his name
synonym for political evil and the at
tempt to ignore the Legislature and the
law was too barefaced to escape public
censure. Quay is not man to be easily
''downed," but it would seem that yes
terday's vote of the Senate sounds the
death knell of his career. 1t will be no
loss to the American people if such is
the truth.

CONVENTIONS.
THEY WANT ARBITRATION.

This paper, always deplorl u
strikes, has felt that the travelling
public had rights which the telegraph
operators and the officers OF the
Southern Railway ought to respect.
TO that end we have advocated tnat
the matters in dispute be submitted
to arbitration. n few days ago TINS
paper urged arbitration as the rlght
method. Referring TO this suggestion.
an operator, who went out on the
strike. writes a private letter from
which we make this extract:
Your editorial in yesterdays issue
under heading Cause of Accident
is the most reasonable editorial we
have been able to see since our strike
was declared at II o'clock April 18th.
| am glad to know there is one news
paper in our State that has courage
enough to voice their convictions re-
CARELESS of the Southern Railway
Company.
''Arbitration is the very essence of
our order. We did not only ask for
!. arbitration in this case. but begged and
! implored the Southern Railway Com
2 pany to settle the matter by arbitra-
. ton and not force us to have to resort
!. to a strike. Another matter | wish
tc speak of. | want to say that our in
tructions from our president are
very strict regarding any disobedience
of law. and we are striking to carry
out his instructions to a letter-and
any unlawful acts cannot be truth

thank you for the editorial
1t may be that the Southern Rail
ways officers prefer strangulation to
arbitration, and because they are rich
and strong they may crush the weak
and poor operators who have served
them with great fidelity, in some in
stances being on duty fifteen hours a
day at less pay than negro fireman
gets. But it will be a victory that a
giant corporation, with overlooking
Golfers, ought not to seek to obtain
over struggling young men who have
as much right to organize as the con-
ductors and engineers.
There ought to be a law compelling
all public corporations, which have no
, life except by Legislative action, to
submit differences between the high
er officers and the telegraphers,
switchmen. engineers, and conductors
to arbitration. The interest of the

Although Mr. Carlisle is = Kentucky
Democrat, he is an enthusiastic supporter
of Governor Taylor. 'sMr Goebel, lie said
brought untold woes upon Kentucky. It
would have been a blessing TO the
State had he died natural death years
ago. Washington Post.
The above heartless remarks come with
i'll grace from a man who was honored
with high positions by the Democratic
party and then betrayed the party.
Mr.. Goebel was man of strong convic-
tons. He was a man who made his polti-
cal fights on the side of the people. rhus
he aroused the bitter antagonlsm of the
powerful Louisville and Nashville Rail
road Company, and the subServlent politi-
clans of Kentucky, the more malignant of
which, failing to defeat Goebel, accom-
plished his death through the means of
hiring an assassin to shoot him.
Goebel had his faults-he fought his
deyilish enemies with fire, and We don t
know but that he was fully justified in
doing so. An examination of his life, pub
lie and private shows only to his credit
and honor.
1t was not a blessing to Kentucky that
Goebel met such an untimely death, I'M
less his assassination will cause his coun-
trymen to overthrow forever the great
power of the Louisville and Nashville
Railroad in Kentucky politics. 1t would
doubtless be Il blessing to Kentucky if
Carlisle, the traitor; John Brown Young
and other tools and officials of the Louis
vile and Nashville Railroad were to meet

REPUBLICAN PLATFORM.

1t will be interesting to see what
Senator Pritchard's convention here
next Wednesday will have to say re-
speeding the great question of the
colonies.
The Republican State conventions
thus far have been singularly silent
or evasive on this point. Most of
them have been content to group the
whole matter into declaration of in
dorsement of what the administration
has done and of confidence that what
ever it does hereafter will be good
and righteous altogether.
The most beautiful example of this
simple faith is found in the New
Hampshire platform. 1t is worth
quoting:
We entrust the future government
of our new possessions to Congress
and to the President. believing that
they may lawfully control and govern
them as they deem best and feeling
assured that they will give the is
lands every measure of local self-gov-
eminent for which they may show
themselves fitted.
Our dispatch does not say so, re-
marks an exchange, but when the
above paragraph was read from the
pulpit, we have not doubt that the
whole congregation responded:
Hear us. good Lord"
This display of simple faith is truly
touching. Also it is convenient. In
the Ohio platform, however, we have
more probably the plank that outlines
what the coming National Republican
convention at Philadelphia will de-
clare on the subject. 1t is skilfully
drawn to permit of campaign which
will touch as lightly as possible on
the issue of Imperialism, and is as
follows:

A FINE SPIRIT.

1T was to us the most striking of
all sights that the many candidates
conducted so spirited a canvass with
out the least show of bad blood in
any quarter" Thus writes Col. VIM.
S. Pearson. editor of the MorgantOn
Hrald. who received a handsome vote
for State Auditor.
We commend this spirit to the Dem
ocratic candidates for the county of
fees. Soon the primaries and county
conventions will be called to nominate
county officers. Much depends upon
the character of the men named. The
personal element enters largely into
all campaigns. If the Democrats in
every county nominate their ablest
and most honest men it will be Il tow
er of strength and will be worth thou
sands of votes.
