coming established among the states Of the

HE recommendation OF the re-
cent grand jury that the leg
Il islature be urged to do away
with the fee system of pay
ing committing magistrates strikes at
the heart of a notorious local evil. 1t
is true that to carry this recommended
tion into effect would necesstate a con-
stitutional amendment, but the game
would be well worth the powder.
We do not believe that it is an eX-
aggera tion to say that the taxpayers of
since the county's erection to an ag-
Gregate of close to half million dol
lars in manufactured court costs 1t
Is within bounds to say that an aver
age of $25 for every head of house
hold and perhaps $50 for each owner of
seized under cover of law by shark
aldermen, justices of the peace and
constables who, in order to get it, had
to stir up trouble, turn into quarter
sessions court cases which ought never
to have got into any court. and null
tiply transcripts shamelessly. Nor has
Lackawanna been alone in this eXperi-
ence. From every county inhabited by
a mixed population furnishing easy
prey comes the same story of pllage
and eXtortion. Among our aldermen
and justices there are many honorable
exceptions who fulfill the duties of their
office in the spirit of justice and fair
ness; but where the law farms justice
out on the piece-work plan and invites
artificial litigation by putting a fat
premium on its multiplication it is not
strange that committing magistra tes
are found who take full advantage of
their opportunities, on the time-honored
principle of "the public. be damned!"
1t perhaps would not be necessary or
desirable in all counties to have salar-
led committing magistrates learned in
the law, but with constitutional au-
thorizatien II would be easy to provide
them forS counties exceeding a certain
limit as to population or criminal liti-
cation. To bring such legislation to
pass would mean saving of millions
of dollars annually, together with a
probable = great Improvement in the
quality OF justice dispensed in the in
itial courts. The subject, therefore. is
well worthy of the prominence given
TO it In the grand jury report.
We note. also. i'm this report the ref

Funston on the Canteen.

~ ENERAL FUNsToN's state
ment as to the conditions
~ which have followed the
abolition of the army canteen
is in line with expert observation in
many army commands and fulflls the
prophecies of those who fought against
the doing away of the canteen. So long
as the soldier is just an average man,
and not dream of fiction, he must
have his amusement and the question
army administration is how to provide
this amusement without destroying the
soldier.
The army canteen represented the
fruit of years of experience and expert
ment in this direction and was endorsed
by an overwhelming majority of COM
manding officers as the best working
plan they knew. But because it in
cluded the regulated sale of beer within
control of those responsible for the NOR
ale of the service it was summarlly dis
continued and nothing was provided in
its stead. AS a consequence we have
a rising tide of mischief and demoraliz-
alton which must either force the
restoration of the canteen or a substl-
tuition including its main features. 1t
Is not to be believed that the opponents
of the canteen are willing to sacrifice
the army to their theory.

The End Not Yet.

ONE worthy persons. pinched
for anthracite, are suggesting
~ vaguely that it's production be
forced. Until some one can
show workable plan by which this
can be done, talk of forcing an end of
the strike is waste of breath.
The men now on strike went out of
their own free will. in pursuance of a
right which belongs to them as Ameri-
can citizens. There is no power in the
land which can take hold of them
against their will and force them to go
back. Any exercise of governmental or
private authority to this effect would be
the grossest form of tyranny.
AS to forcing the companies to yield
cannot be done by legislation. Just as
no man can be compelled to work
against his WILL so no man or corpora
tion can be compelled to hire against
his or its will. These rights are COM
Elementary. One could not be sacrificed
without sacrificing the other. Both are
Indispensable to a government founded
on liberty.
The strike enters its twenty first week
without 4 sign that it is near it's end.
Mediation has failed. Wild talk Of
forcing a settlement is equally futile.
Apparently the only solvent is time.
The most that any of us can hope for is
that when at last the miserable thing
is ended it will be the last of it's kind
for generation.

pected of him and what even his oppOn-
ents will respect.
He takes back nothing that he said
during his brilliant but unsuccessful
contest for the Republican guberna-
toriil nomination; indeed he signifi-
cantly announces that he proposes to
renew that campaign at IA future time.
But he declines to permit personal dis
appointment to blind him to the larger
interests at stake, and his pledge of
support for the ticket of his party is
one which may we'll be repeated by
every loyal Republican in the common
wealth.
Against Judge Pennypacker's candi-
dacy as representing Republican pol
icies and principles not a criticism can
be offered. Against his personality no
reproach has been or can be raised. AS
the standard bearer of his party he
comes before the Republicans of this
ment necessary to a triumphant elec-
tion and the party throughout the ma
ton, looking to Pennsylvania proud
position at the head of the Republican
column, have right to expect that he
shall receive it.

q NOTABLE programme has been
~ arranged for the thirty-sixth

Army of the Republic, in
Washington next week, some of It's
features being set forth in another col
umn. If we may Judge by elaborate
ness of preliminary preparations this
encampment promises to be Il record
breaker
Most significant among these prepar-
ations is the meeting called for a week
from Thursday evening to consider
measures for the relief of INDECENT Con-
federate veterans. The spectacle of
generals like Beaver, Burdette and Tor
rance for the North sitting alongside
such conspicuous Southern veterans as
Gordon, Lee and Wheeler on a platform
dedicated to reunion and fraternity
and having in view the extension Of the
hand of practical brotherhood to the
necessitous loser in the great rebellion
surely will have dramatic as well as
historic interest. 1t is far cry from
the days of Andersonville and Libby to
the hand clasp of perfected reconcilia-
tion, but clearly the country is the bet
ter that this long interval has been
spanned and that no longer is the REM
iniscence on either side tinged with
asperity or bitterness.
Whether the time will ever come
when the national treasury shall yield
to the veterans of the Gray some meas
ure Of the recognition and recompense
now allotted to the veterans of the
Blue, the time certainly has come when
all generous Americans, both North
and South, should take steps aside
