JUDGE CUMMIN says that the High
License law goes into immediate effect,
with tho exception of the section in
regard to granting licenses, which
does not take effect until June 31. Ac
cording to this opinion druggists can
not legally sell liquors from this time
on without a prescription from a
physician.
LAST week's Clinton Democrat in
mentioning Mr. Powdcrly's com
plaints that the newspapers have
treated him badly acutely drops the
following remark : We don't see how.
If it hadnt been for the newspapers
Mr. Powderly would most likely nev
er havo been heard of. It is hard to
be anything nowadays unless the
newspapers decree that you shall be.
O'BRIEN, the editor of tho United
- Trelnnd, who is sojourning in Canada
at present, where he is making politi
cal speeches to his tellow countrymen
has a hard time of it. lie was mobbed
and received severe injuries, having
been pelted with stones. lie was but
lately elected to a seat iu the House
of Commons in his own country, and
taking bis checkered experiences
during his stay on Canadian territory
in consideration he would be safer
at home than anywhere else. t
IT is certainly a source of gratifica
tion to us to see and hear that the
feeling among all the candidates for
county offices in this canvass is for
peace and unison and if this sentiment
is maintained as the campaign advan
ces we mav hope for an undivided
and old time democratic victory next
fall. So it should be. The lash
ion of going- back on the nominated
ticket, if your name don't happen to
be among the nominees is unbecoming
to a genuine Democrat. Let all dc
their duty to their party, irrespective
of a tew tritling ups and downs, inci
dent to all political campaigns. And
least of nil give ear to the many un
healthy and inciting articles which
are put up as campaign capital by op
posing organs.
THE legislature adjourned last
Thursday and they did so apparently
feeling as if the session had been a
continuous display ot wise statesman
ship. So it was in their minds. But
it must not be forgotten that the body
is largely Republican and that the
work of the members on that side of
the house was principally in the in
terest of corporations and for the best
of tho Republican party. The failure
*of completing the apportionment work
must naturally be placed where it be
longs—to the Republican leaders.
While the Congressional apportion
ment got through on the very la9t
day, the senatorial apportionment bill
got left entirely. This is undisputably
a neglect of daty and surely merits
the condemnation of the people of this
state.
TIIE following article taken from tie
Harrisbnrg Patriot treats on a sub
ject which bears earnest consideration
in this neighborhood. When read
ing the extract those whom it may
concern should simply insert the
word "trout" in place of "black bass"
and it will fit a number of cases right
at home. As far as fishing is con
cerned we have a class of people in
ibis community who pay no more re
gard to the fish laws than if they did
not exist. We indorse the Patriot's
words emphatically, and are in favor
of putting the suggestions made into
practice.
The law forbids the taking of bass before
the first of Juue and those who have taken
them during the past two weeks have com
mitted an offense against the law. Some
of these offenders have aggravated their
crime by taking their nets. This method of
catching is prohibited at all times.
The law regulating the catching of fish
was enacted in the interest of tho entire
public. With proper restraints in the tak
ing of fish,so as to avoid waste the streams
of the state might be made a most profilic
source of supplying cbeap food to the j>eo
ple, as well as a most healthful and pleasant
diversion-to those who fare fond of fishing
with hook and line. But so long as persons
are allowed to catch the fish immediately
before or during the spawning season there
can be no hope of multiplication in the
waters.
Those who are not willing to conform to
the laws governing the taking offish should
be subjected to the penalty which is punish
ed for the violation of the law. The person
who takes fish out of season with a hook
and line is censurable and ought to be pun
ished, but a person who takes fish during
the spawning season with a net is an enemy
to the public and deserves the severest pun
ishment the law provides.
THE Fhiludclphia VVme.-j.don't like
the new congressional apportionment
one bit as may lo seen from the fol
lowing editorial upon that subject, in
which it gives a graphic pen picture
of the now division of districts :
The Congressional apportionment
bill has already bceomo a law by tho
approval of Governor Beaver, and the
first election of Congressmen under it
will take place next year. It is very
far from a creditable net, although the
Democrats receive under it what is
probably nil that could reasonably be
expected (rom a Legislature that is
overwhelmingly Republican iu both
branches, with a reliably partisan
Governor to sign whatever the party
demands.
Therocire six districts which will bo
surely Democratic : The Third, now
represented by Mr. Randall ; the
Eighth, made up of parts of Sow den's
and Duckalew's districts ; the Ninth,
in which Lehigh is added to Berks; the
Seventeenth,which is made by adding
Democratic Northumberland to the
western end of the Duckalew district ;
the Nineteenth, Maish's, which re
mains as before, aud the Twenty
eighth,which ought to become famous
as the sea serpent district. It extends
east and west for nearly a hundred
miles, including Clearfield and Centre;
then suddenly rears northward to take
in Elk; westward again to seize For
est and southward once more to scoop
in Clarion. To these six rock-ribbed
Democratic districts may be added
Luzerne county, the new Twelfth, as
safe for the same party in everything
hut a cyclonic Republican campaign.
The Democrats will also have a fight
ing chanceiu the Seventh, or Bucks-
Montgomery district, the Eleventh, or
Lackawanna, and the Thirteenth, or
Schuylkill district, and Scott, bv con
tinuing to sweep Erie county, may
even carry the Erie-Crawford district.
It is ridiculous nonsense to call
some of these districts "compact and
contiguous." The Venango-Warrcu-
Elk-Camcron district resembles a
bathiug suit stretched over the board
walk at tho seashore to dry, and the
Eighteenth district, with Union coun
ty added to its northernmost end,
reaches half-way across the State, and
would reach two-thirds of the way
across if it were straight instead of re
sembling a crooked leg. It is a rep
resentative partisan apportionment.
WASHINGTON LETTER.
(From our regular correspondent.)
WASHINGTON, MA Y 23J, IS^7.
To-day more than a thousand tents
whiten the greensward that sttelches
around the Washington Monument.
The troops are now all heie who intend
ed to participate in the National Drill,
and they represent Alabama, Ar
kansas, Connecticut, C dorado, Dako
ta, Indiana. Illinois, lowa, Kansas.
Kentucky, Louisana. Maine, Mar)land
Massachusetts, Michigan. Minnesota-
Mississippi, Missouri. New Hamp
shire, New York, North Carolina,
South Carolina, Ohio, Rhode Island,
Texas, Tennessee, Virgniia, Washing
ton, Territory aud the District of Col,
umbia.
Such a camp has not been seen in
this country siuce the veterans of the
civil war broke their camp in 'Co. Now
the soldiers of the North, South, East
and West assemble in one camp and
contend iu friendly strife for the tro
phies of the peaceful drill ground. The
week will be exceedingly lively in
Washington. It will be filled with e
vents brilliant, street nageaetu, attrac
tive drills, reviews and street parades.
The good people of Washington are
rejoicing that the order permitting the
sale of intoxicating liquors on the
ground had been revoked. The bar
privilege of the ground had been told
by the Drill committee for §I,BOO but
it is settled that only temperance
drinks shall be dispensed at the re
freshment counter under the gtand
stand this week. The revocation of
the privilege has been attributed to the
influence of the President through the
efforts of some ladies of the W. T. C.
U., who called upon to interfere, and
also to a suggestion Irons the Commis
sioner of public grounds, to tlie effect
that the War Department, (to which
the drill ground belongs)would be
gratified if the committee would ex
clude intoxicating liquors. But fro u
whatever source the influence may
have come, most people were pleased
with the final decision aud action of
the National Drill Committee.
After tiie close of the Drill the Presi
dent wiil take a vacation of about ten
days, accompanied by Mrs. Cleveland,
Colonel Lamoot and his family. They
will go to Saranac Lake, New York,
where the fishing is said to bo good at
ihif season. It is said tfiey will on the
second of June, which is the anniver
sary of the President's marriage.
Doubtless lie feels the need of rest and
the event could not probably be cele
brated in away more agreeable to him.
The financial situation has been de
manding a great deal of the President's
time and attention of late, as, indeed,
it is the mcst important question be
fore him. On last Wednesday night
the Secretary of the Treasury remain
ed at the White house until two o'clock
in the morning,talking overthe matter
with him. He is being urged by the
advocates of tariff reduction to call
an extra session of Congress early in
fall for the purpose of considering rev
enue measures. But Secretary hair
child is so safe and conservative a man
ager that ihere can be no real cause ot
alarm concerning the stringency of the
money market, whether Congress is
specially convened or not. Besides the
Secretary's powers are sufficient under
existing laws to enable him to ward
off any threatened danger. In the
worst contingency that can he imagin
ed he is at liberty to step into the upon
market and buy bonds for Government
account.

Pennsylvania Company Charged
With Violating the Law.
WASHINGTON, May 23.—Before the
interstate commerce commission to-day
Mr. William A. llrown, iu behalf of
tho Chicago and Al'.on railroad comp i
ny, filed charges against tho Feunsylya
nia railroad company of violation of the
third section of the interstate commerce
act. He charged specifically that the
FennsylvmU company had unlawfully
given preference and advantage to the
Chicago, Darlington and (juiucy mil
road company in the interchange of
passengeiß at Chicago, and denied to
the Chicago and Alton reasonable fa
cilities for the interchange of passenger
traffic. This is alleged to bo tho result
of an unlawful combination on the part
of the Pennsylvania and other compa
nies to coerce the public.
Mr. Brown also filed, in behalf of the
Chicago, Dock Island and Pacific rail
road company, similar charges against
tlo New York Central and Hudson
Diver railroad company. The commis
sion, after hearing his statement, en
tered an order for tho companies
against which the complaints are made
to appear aud make answer in ten
days.
Statements wore also filed in behalf
of the Chicago and Alton and trie Chi
cago, ltoek Island and Pacific railroad
companies in answer to the complaints
made against them, by tho Burton
stock car company.
The commission has received a com
munication from the A/ississippi rail
road commission protesting against tt.e
suspension of section 4, sayo only as to
exceptional shipments in cases win re
the same is manifestly demanded to t-v
cure speedy transit. The protest is
based upon the foil iwing reasons :
"First—Because a permanent suspen
sion of jthe section referred to would
emasculate the law to such an extent
as to render it almost nugatory and
thereby defeat the purpose of congress.
"Second—Because the enforcement
of this section would, in our opinion,
bo a great relief to the small interior
towns of the country and people who
ltye along the lines of railroads and a
way from the trade centres. This, in
our opinion, is the class standing in
need of protection against the unjust
and oftentimes oppressive ex lotions of
railroad corporations.
The city council of Central City, Ne
braska, lias sent in a protest against
! any suspension of the fourth section of
I the act, which would, they say, contin
ue the existing evil of compelling the
j people of interior localities to make
\ good the losses, if any, incurred in
charging less for a longer than for a
shorter haul over the rails.

This is proven by its popularity, and

tion it gives against this weakening
and dangerous malady. It acts more

out any of their injuiious consequences.

apparent cause, and for the past six or
seven years 1 was completely deaf.
During all that time the various noises
in my ears were enough to craze me.
The change at tirst was slow, hut
the noises gradually ceased. Dur
ing (lie fourth month 1 began to hear
sounds I had not heard for years, and
thereafter a continual increase of hear
ing from week to week, until I could
hear ordinary tone of conversation. At
the end of six months 1 considered I
was completely cured. Can now hear
as well as any of my friends. 1 need
not tell you how delighted 1 am, and it
is with the deepest gratitude 1 now
write you of this fact. I most earnest

persons nlllieted with deafness. Wher
ever I do see one 1 tell them of you, the
good you can do, and have done for me.
I send you this statement with permiss

be the means of doing good to others
who may be so unfortunate

Sxoupsnuuo, l\t„ May ->. -Tiio
death of Lizzie Freese, a tahuted lady,
aged 22 year?, which occuired at Shaw
nee, Monroe county, on Tuesday, fur
nishes tho subject matter for a sad
temperance sermon. Lizzie was
the child of well- to-do parents, and
was more or less petted aud spoiled.
Her parents were not tempeia.ace peo
ple'. and among other indulgences to
their daughter, oven when a mere chi'd
was the giving to her in small quantities
of liquor to keep her quiet. This was
kept up until the girl developed an ap
petite that was impossible to conquer.
Iler father died two years ago, and her
mother followed him a year later. By
death Lizzie became their solo possess
or of the home stead,a farm valued at
from SIO,OOO to $12,000. Left entirely
to heiself.sho plunged into excess and
recklessness, disposing of poitious of
her property from time to time in or

friends forsook her, even her relatives
turning against her. Two weeks ago
she indulged her appetite to an alarm

A week ago her condition become
much worse, and later she relapsed in
to unconsciousness and remained in
that condition until she died. Thus
she passed away, unhanored and un

Her funeral, which took place yester
