Mixing Whisky and ihe Turin.
The whisky bill being under censldera
tlen In the Heuso, Mr. Coxe, of New
Yerk, mnde n speech en the tariff bill,
which discovered htm te be in favor of
the Morrison measure, but did net di
velep his opinions en the preposition te
extend the I line of payment of the tax
en the whisky in bend ; which Mr.
Blount, of Georgia, said amounted te
sixty-six million dollars, and he was
opposed te the extension bocause it prac
tiealiy amounted te a lean by the govern
ment te the distillers. Mr. Randall also
opposed the extension " en principle ;
probably the same principle. Mr. Car Car
llsle is supposed te favor the bill, his
state having a great Interest in It.
Mr. Morrison is for it, nnd se is Wat
torsen; and his interest in it Is said te
be the true reasen for his presence in
"Washington, his running the Democrat
ic party being simply a little by-play te
work off his superabundant steam.
What connection the bill te extend the
time of payment of the whisky tax has
witli the tariff bill, is net readily te be
seen; and yet there seems te be such
connection from the marshalling of the
prominent Democratic friends of tariff
revision in its favor, and the opposition
te it of theso who are content te let the
tariff bona it is. It would seem that a
natural collocation would be the reverse
of thls.since these who favor a reduction
of tariff duties would naturally desire, te
show a plethoric treasury, needing de
pletion. The postponement of tiie pay
ment of the tax en bended whisky Is ex
pectcd ultimately te result in its being
wheliy remitted, along with the abeil
tlen of the whisky tax ; a measure which
is supposed te be favored by the high
tariff advocates. When we find free trade
people also for free whisky, nud tariff
advocates demanding the prompt pay
ment of the whisky tax, it seems
etrange. It may be that our represen
tatives nre acting " en principle" and
entirely without regard te the influence
which their position upon one question
may have en another ; and If 30 they nre
entitled te commendation for their in
tegrity ; which isef a very unusual kind.
It te n very excellent thlug te staud
upon principle , but there needs te be a
thorough assurance that it is a principle
upon which the stand is taken. The
principle upon which Mr. Illountepposes
the whisky tax extension is that the
government should net lend money ; and
that may be a geed principle ; but It is
net se clear that Mr. Blount is standing
en it in this case, since foregoing the
present collection of a debt Is
net the same in principle or
practice as making a lean ; us every one
knetB te his sorrow. Ner is it entirely
clear that the government may net prop
erly postpone the coller.tieu of a debt
under certain circumstances The
whisky distillers say that they cannot
raise the sixty-six millions due the gov
ernment, without great sacrifice of their
property. If this Is se, ami the govern
ment is well secured for its debt by the
whisky it holds, nnd does net stand in
present need of the tax money, where is
is the great harm of letting it remain for
a time in the whisky owners hands if
they are willing te pay a proper iuterest
fortheaccemniodaiion ? It need net feel
compelled te collect the tax new, lest it
may in the future remit it, as that would
be a confession of very great weakness
Ner is there any conspicuous principle
under the feet of these who demand ana
theso who refuse a twenty per cent, re
duction lu ihe tariff. That is simply a
question of expediency ; and upon it
differences of oplnieu may properly be
reconciled ; and they muit be se recon
ciled by all who expect te claim place aj
Democratic leaders.
If there is anything in the
question that is available
harmony of Democratic
the tariff question, there
whisky tax
te secure
notion en
is nothing
te prevent Its being made use of. Same
of our Washington people seem te have
worked themselves into a fever of eb3tl
nacy iu dealing with these questions,
mid staud in need of some lubrication
of their mental joints. They had better
get themselves rubbed down if they ex
pect make a geed entry at C.iicage.
A Clear Distinction.
The Biipreme court of Colerado lias re
cently rendered a decision disbarring a
lawyer, which has been construed by
Berne persons as being at variance with
tbe opinion of the Pennsylvania supreme
court in its leversai of the Lancaster
county court in the Steinman and
Ilensel case. Even If the case admitted
of this construction, It is net likely that
the opinion of a Colerado tri
bunal would weigh against the
unanimous conclusion of the elder
and mero highly esteemed court of
supiemu jurisdiction in Pennsylvania ;
but un examination of thu Colerado case
and a compailsen or It with the Penn
sylvania precedent referred te, discovers
a very essential distinction between
them, and one that w;u kept clearly in
View bV the COIIIlSBl fur Rtidmn.ui n,..l
Ilensel in their arguments before the
lower and higher courts.
w -... .... .,..,,,,,.,,, IIIIU
lower and lilgher courts.
The petitien of the judge below te thu
supreme court of Colerado where- the
statute gives te the justices of the su
preme court, In open court, " power at
their discretion te utrlke the imme of
any attorney or counseller at law from
tbe roll for misconduct in Ida olllce"
set forth that the respondent haltel the
relater as he wai driving through the
atreet with hU daughter, a young ladyi
and addressed abualve, Insulting and
threatening language te him concerning
his judicial ncllen In a certain cause
tlioreteforo and atill pending and' undo
termlned In the district court of Arapa
hee county, wherein the relater was
counsel for the defendants ; that he
accused said judge with tyranny and op
pression in Bald causa ; that Bald relater
bad procured its submission te a preju.
diced Judge fur trial ; and further, that
the respondent assailed the relater with
vile epithet?, and threatened te expose
him by publishing the said accusations
in, the newspapers.
Theaa facta ne5 beinjr traversed, nnd
the offending attorney maintaining the
right of his position nnd that Ids con
duct and tiie intent it manifested did net
warrant ids disbarment under the
statute, the supreme court had le meet
the point squarely nud very squarely
decided that he was a proper subject for
disbarment. Hut it will be remembered
that in the Pennsylvania case the ies ies ies
poiidents made their defense upon the
ground that the publication made by
them criticising the court was net mnde
within the presence of the court, nor
while either of them was acting as an
attorney and elllcer of the court, or of, or
concerning, any case pending and undo
termincd in said court ; but solely as
publishers of a newspaper, out of court,
nnd while acting in geed faith without
mallce ana for the public geed, of and
concerning a case of great public lm
pertauce which had been Anally ended
and determined in raid court, and in
which neither of the respondents had, at
any time, been in any way employed or
Interested as an attorney, and which did
net In any way involvetheir professional
fidelity te the court.
This bread and clear distinction be
tween the duties of lawyers and 1 e
rights of newspapers, which Judges Pat
terseu nnd Livingston failed te lecog leceg
nize, led them Inte an error, for which
no precedent existed except these set by
Screggs and a carpet b.ig court of North
Carolina. Se long, however, as this
distinction is made by clear headed
judges the dignity of courts and the
rights of lawyers will be maintained
without any clashing or conflict.
The reports of the condition of the
electric lights made lespeetively by the
jwltce te the city authorities and by the
instx'cters of the Maxim company te
their employers, continue te show the
same variance as heretofore ; the state
ments printed te day differ as twenty
five from seven. Such a variance can
not, t f course, be accidental, seeing that
it continues day after day, and tli.it the
repeits of the Maxim company's agents
nre Invariably most favorable te tl eir
company. There is no reason why the
police should overstate the deficiencies
of the lamps ; there is a reason why the
company should understate them ; and
that it does, we are convinced, for ht
night we happen te knew that the lights
at Market and Grant streets, nud ClitMt
nut and Duke worked very badly ; only
one of Uiese is reported b the police aud
neither by the company.
