SUNDAY, MARCH 20, 1904.
KrEprNa rHrM ApARr.

Again We are called on to take note of the wonderfully. alert race feeling exist ing in Pennsylvania. We have. more than once noticed that their love for the ne- gro Is the kind of love which passeth un- derstanding. because 1t is 50 strictly con fined to words One of the latest in stances is connected with the gruesome spectacle of a public execution, where a negro and n white man were to sail from the scaffold on the same day. The white man. being Pennsylyanian, objected to standing up beside "a nigger," and the sheriff, having tender regard for his feel ingss says:
 There will be no double hanging Many persons object to the minglinE of white and black men in life, and l am not going to hang the men together from the same scanold. They never associated with each other. and to force Hartley to stand side by side with Edwards might be obiec- tfonabie, and will not force him to do any such thing. I know hundreds from whom such spectacle would raise the strongest objections.
 New is there anything wrong with that officials bowels of compassion? To hang two men at once who never associated with each other" would be a distinct vio- iation of all etiquette and good form; but when one of them is colored man such a break would be unpardonable, and the AheriR makes his position plainer by say fng:
 Of all places in the world the scaffold 1A one where nothing that could offend the condemned man should be done. That may sound sentimental, but there is more 1hau sentiment in it-there is humanity Even #, two men had been found guilty or the same offence and were sentenced 70 be hanged the same day. would hesi- tate to hang them at the same time.
 Never having had any experience fin be- tng hung We cannot perhaps be consider ed an authority on the proprieties, and possibly might object to posing alongside gentleman from Africa, but we don't Know about 1t. On such an occasion we might tell the sheriff to bunch his game and let us all light out at the same time
 This Pittsburg sherin is not going to give offence to the prejudices of his whita friends if he knows himself To give a public exhibition of race equality might bring down on his head such a storm of censure and indignation as would stand in the way of further political prefer nent, which ie a blunder to be avoided, especially in Pennsylvania. Then, too, it may be possible that this official has and may have feared that if he showed them of together they would travel the same route afterwards and further com plIcate things. Great head. that sheriff has.

COMING ELECTION.
Will Show an Enormous Increase in tie Total Vote.

VIII Show an Enormous Increase m
 the Total Vote.
 New York Commercial,
 What the addition to the total number oi voters in the country is likely to be this yea Is very hard to conjecture, for the reason that between 1898 and 1900, 90 far as the cleo. tion returns show, there was practically nc gain in the number of electors. From lsIe tc 1880 there was a gain Of So9.e0o; from iSso tc 1884 a gain of l. o00 900: from lsSA to iSsS gain oe 1sO0, 900: from 1888 to lss7. gain of 1890. OO0 Between 1878 and 1898 the popular voes for Presidential electors increased 90 per cent or from Sao0eO0 to 1s. .soo.0Oo.
 Apparently. owing to the fact that yas! multitude of voters did not so to the polls at all in 1900 the total popular vote In that year was only % 900 greater than 1t was in 1Ss6; and. if anything like a full vote is polled next faail, there should be an enormous and un- preeedented Increase in the total vote In the eirht wears eudfnK with November, 1898. this vote increased 2.4Oo.ooO and. as the population of the country has been steadily expahoins since 1886, the total vote this year snouio sno" a far greater increase than that o1 isso-So;
 A lining that renders 1t exremely dinicuit to torecaG Gt what the increase in this vote may De ia he fact that an exceptionally large numoer oy ImnnIerants have landed on our shores m recent years In the eight years ended Wltn 1903 over GOO foreign-born persons wsIS s,S added to our population. and consideraoie nroportion of these parsons is now naturahzeo' and they will take part in the next eiectlVn, n what the proportion may be, however, II ID Impossible to judge. ,..- .,a ,,,nagAra to grasp the fact that first. voters are likely to constitute a nSATe importah M tac tcrH in the approaching campaign thah eVe' before and as a consequence: tnat ..es s..It, likely to prove a greater unkno~n Ia, ,hsn has eser been the case hitherto.
