EVANS. Why Smoot Should Go. A reader of The Republican wants to know why it takes the ground that Apostle Smoot of Utah should be deprived of his seat in. the United States senate to which he was legally elected. The reader says so far as he has fceen able to learn, Mr.

Smoot has neither practiced polygamy nor been guilty of any moral or business offense, but on the contrary. Is well thought of fcy those who know him, and that his reputation for integrity is an excellent one. All this The Republican admits. Nothing reflecting seriously upon the character of Senator Smoot has been brought to light as a consequence of the long investigation, which will probably result in his seat being declared vacant. Personally he seems to be a very good sort of man and to have won the respect of his senatorial associates.

He has been content with one wife and appears to be a good, law abiding citi zen. There are probably worse men in senate than he is, If the truth were known. But it should be remembered that it Is not against Senator Smoot as an individual that those who are opposed to permitting him to retain his seat In the senate have waged war, but against the system of which he is not only a part, but the representative. The evidence has disclosed that Senator Smoot is a high official of the Mormon church and that as such he has taken an oath that practically disqualifies him from taking that of a United States senator. In.

other words, he owes his sworn allegiance, first to the Mormon church, not to the government of his country. In the second place it has been ehown that the Mormon church is the eecret enemy of the government of the United States and that it has required Senator Smoot, as its apostle, to pledge himself to take revenge upon that government. These are some of the reasons, and very satisfactory ones they seem to be. why The Republican believes that Smoot's seat should be declared vacant So pertinent to the question of his right to continue a member of that body have these reasons seemed to the committee on privileges and elections, which inquired into the matter, that a majority of the members have re ported in favor of turning him out of the which. Is another reason why The Republican thinks he should he made to walk the plank.

New York's Foreign Commerce. New Yorkers are priding themselves on the fact that the fiscal year of the government soon to close will break all records for Imports and exports at the port of that city. This, at least. Is according to estimates made' by custom house authorities. They say that never before has the foreign com merce of the American metropolis as sumed such gigantic proportions.

The figures are said to show that com pared with the year 1890 the Imports for this year have Increased thirty one and one half per cent, while the ex ports have increased more than fifty per cent. What Is regarded as a significant feature of the Importations for the present year Is the Increasing tendency to buy only luxuries In Europe and to supply the necessaries of life from the American market. The Imports of precious stones of all kinds are larger this year than ever before. Another factor has been the entries of costly paintings, bric a brac, laces, silks and statuary, valued at almost $100,000,000, It Is Interesting to note that fifteen years ago the total foreign business at New York was only 1857,000,000, compared with $1,275,000,000 today. The duties have risen from $151,845,132 in 1890 to About $180,000,000 in the current year.

But what 'pleases the average New 'Yorker more than anything else is the fact that contrasted with New York the other leading ports show up at a disadvantage. The New Yorker likes to think of his city as being always In the lead and he points with pleasure to the fact that the foreign commerce record, for Boston, Philadelphia and Chicago is poor in comparison with that of his town, but some day the conditions may be reversed, so far as some of the latter cities are concerned, at least. Chancellor Day Again. In his baccalaureate sermon delivered on Sunday Chancellor Day of Syracuse University took another whack at what he terms the scandal mongers, among whom, it is made plain, he includes the president of the United States. The chancellor resents the attacks that are being made upon the corporations and thinks no good can come from the assault.

Perhaps he is right, but the view he takes is certainly not a popular, nor do we believe it to be a righteous one. He is on the side of the corporation, and not that of the people. He tells us that the poor man is indebted to the corporation for the opportunity to work for good wages and seems to think that because of that fact he and everybody else should fall down and worship it. But the truth of the matter is that the corporation exists, or is supposed to exist, for the benefit of the people. They support it.

Every dollar of corporate wealth In existence today came from the people. The corporation doesn't furnish any person work' because it is a charitable institution, but because it can make, or aims to make, a profit off his or her toil. The people therefore owe the corporation nothing, save in so far as it can be made subservient to their needs, and if it fails to fulfill the purpose of its creation, attempts to tyranlze over the people, or creates abuses that are intolerable, the people have a right to complain and to insist that the evils be remedied. That is what they and the president are doing and the revelations that have been made in insurance, railroading and butchering reveal the necessity for taking steps to bring the corporations under the control of the government, to such an extent that they can be properly regulated. The people do not want to be robbed by insurance companies that a few men may revel In wealth which they have done nothing to produce.

The people do not want the railroads to carry on a system of discrlm lna.ttrm..thfl will buHrl nn Industry or enterprise at cost of another's ruin. The people want to be fed on filthy meats and other deleterious food articles when they are entitled to what is clean and healthful, neither aje they going to be if they can help it, and the sooner Chancellor Day gets the notion out of his head that the. corpora tions are all in all the better it will be for his reputation as a scholar and thinker. True, scandal mongering, of which there is too much, is an offense. But the president is not scandal mongering when he calls the attention of congress to corporation evils and asks that they be corrected in the name of the American people, but is simply doing his duty.

No one is trying to destroy useful corporations, but to limit their operations within legitimate spheres and prevent them from doing more harm than good, and whatever evil may re sult from the effort to reform them in any needed respect will be ten times less' than would result from permitting them to go unrestrained. Refuses to Be a Senator. An unusual thing has happened Last week Governor Hoch, of Kan sas, appointed F. D. Coburn, sec retary of the Kansas state board of agriculture, to the vacancy In the United States senate caused by the forced resignation from that bidy of Joseph R.

Burton. It is not often that anyone declines membership In the United States sen ate, particularly when it is to be had without the asking, as was the case with Coburn. On the contrary, most men would accept the appointment with avidity. Rich men, in particular, have a hankering for senatorial hon ors and have frequently been known to expend very large sums of money to gratify their ambition in this re spect. In strange contrast to the recognlz rule that a seat in the upper house of congress is a prize to be(, eagerly sought and never relinquished except under stress of necessity in giving away to another aspirant for the place, is the conduct of Mr.

Coburn, the plain Kansas farmer, who has re fused to don the senatorial toga when It was offered to him without solicitation on his part. His reasons for de clining the honor were set forth In a lotfer to Governor Hoch, In which he says: "I am extremely fond of the work and the position with which the people of Kansas have intrusted me for so many, years, and if continued In their service at all no other can be so ac ceptable. There are so many reasons, entirely clear to me but needless to enumerate, why I should not accept the senatorshtp, and one all sufficient is that doing so must Inevitably In volve me in political activity and com blnatlous, If not. factional strife, dl THE SCRANTON REPUBLICAN, TUESDAY, JUNE 12, 1906. rectly on account of myself or Indirectly on account of others, for which I am without inclination, aptitude or strength." This will seem to many like a strange excuse for declining to be promoted from the office of secretary of a state agricultural board to a seat In the United States senate, but if It is satisfactory to Mr.

Coburn It will have to be to others. He knows what he wants and does not want better than any one can tell him, and we are by no means certain that his decision to stay where he Is, Is not a wise one. He is pleased with his present position and might feel altogether out of place in the other, as, we assume, he thinks he would. Congress Must Act With Care. That the Neill Reynolds report laid before congress by the president has hurt the packing and cattle raising Industries would be foolish to deny.

That It would injure both was so apparent that The Republican unhesti tatingly approved of the president's earlier Intention of withholding the same from the public, provided an adequate remedy could be provided for the shocking abuses complained of in the report without publishing the nauseating particulars to the world. But as soon as there was talk about the passage by congress of laws that would Insure adequate Inspection of meat the packers manifested opposition and the report was sent to congress. The effect has been what The Republican anticipated it would be. The packers have found their sales rapidly diminishing, and the demand for cattle, as well as the price, has fallen greatly, much to the chagrin of the growers." The latter in particular have become greatly excited and are demanding that congress shall take speedy action. They want it to pass some kind of a law, and pass it in a hurry, that will have the effect of set tling the agitation that is proving so damagaing to their Industry.

We do not blame the ranchmen for becoming anxious. They have great interests at stake and naturally want to be protected against loss. But their advice to' congress to make frantic haste is not for the country's good. Congress should proceed carefully in the matter with a view to taking the most effective means in its power to correct the abuses which have caused the agitation. In its effort to do this it is hampered by the restrictions that are placed on federal power and must proceed with due caution or the measures it enacts will go down before the constitutional test.

There has been an unusual number of severe thunder storms for this time of year and the lightning has cut some queer pranks hrdifferent. narts nf the country. A number of persona have been killed and considerable property destroyed. They have their earth quakes out on the Pacific coast, but are practically free from electrical storms, for which the people residing there are thankful. It is seldom, that lightning does any damage to persons or property In California, Oregon or Washington.

William Hearst still believes in Wil liam Jennings Bryan. This he has an nounced In a message sent to the Indianapolis Sun in which certain other Democrats are roundly abused. Patrick McCarrin is Btigmatized as an "elec tion thug," Mayor McClellan as an "election thief," while Belmont, Morgan and David Francis are put down as "Captain Kids of industry." All these and others like them Mr. Hearst says he expects Bryan to repudiate. After F.

D. Coburn declined to accept the appointment to succeed Joseph R. Burton, of Kansas, In the United States senate, Governor Hoch offered the place to Judge Alfred W. Bens6n, of Ottawa. The latter says he will accept and that he intends to fight for reelec tion next winter.

He will have plenty of opposition, for Kansas is filled with men who think they are of senatorial size. The San Jose scale has obtained a frpthold in Monroe county and State Orchard Inspector J. K. Owen has appealed to the farmers there to organize for the purpose of fighting the pest. If they are wise they will act upon his suggestion without delay.

BREAKFAST BITS. Mr. Madison F. Larkln has written to friends connected with The Republican regarding his impressions of the after conditions of the San Francisco earthquake. Mr.

and Mrs. Larkln have been at Oakland, for some time and are very well satisfied to return to Scranton, which they say is good enough for them. Mr. Larkln considers the story by James Hopper in Everybody's Magazine for June the most graphic description of the experiences of April 18. "It Is writes Mr.

Larkln, "for any one to attempt to describe the situation, as I. am satisfied the people themselves here do not fully realize what has happened. About once a week we have a shake which reminds them of the morning of April 18, and with the memory of that awful day some of the women go into hysterics. "Mrs, Larkln and I experienced our first quake Monday about midnight, and I can tell you that even without the experience of that other awful day It was not very pleasant. The only way I can give, you an idea of the sensation is to imagine yourself on a bed placed upon a hay wagon riding over a corduroy road.

It made Mrs. Larkln ill and she did not get over the effects for some hours. These small shakes, as they call them, did not affect the people here before the big earthquake, as they had become used to them, but since the big one, every time a small one happens they imagine It is going to be a terrific quake and consequently are terribly frightened." Mrs. N. E.

Rice, who has just come east from California, has a different opinion about the Golden West. "I want to get hack just as soon as I can," she said yesterday. "I have a sore throat that feels a yard long. I never have a sore throat in California. This climate of yours is enough to kill everybody.

Whenever I come east I am surprised to find so many people alive. Talk about earthquakes! The sudden changes here are a great deal worse than a California earthquake." However, Mr. and Mrs. Rice live In Pasadena, not San Francisco, and the perspective on earthquakes is slightly different. Enthusiasts who want to see young teachers graduate from the Scranton Training school will have to take their chances this week, as there is no indi cation that they will have any more in the immediate future.
