MjmS3Z2i vmrnsm ?& SSf ;:$ THE. PJTTSBTJKG' DISPATCH,. sSATBUD AT, JUNE (29, '18881- MT.' i &. ,3$ w : ? 'J" ' being too early to adjonrn court, John S. Robb, Esq., who took op the liquor cases that the Supreme Court decided yesterday, suggested to Judge Stowe that he spend the balance of the afternoon in rehearing wholesale liquor applications. The Judge laughed heartily, but shook his head In a most positive manner. All the attor neys assembled in the room joined the Judge in the smile. a wet symposium; y What Parties Most Interested Say .About Judge White's Reversal B. C. Cbrlstr Takes It Coolly Mnjor Brown nnd Joslah Cohen on Law. Points In- volved A Quietus for Spook- Easirs Disappointed Ue- toll Appllcnnts Clutch . ' nt Straws. While the legal fraternity was very nearly as much interested in the last say, it did not show it to the same extent as did a man who had th6. lease of a building on his hands with no other business to put into it. Mr. Fitzsimmonshad. to do the talking for Robb and Fitzsimmons, the other end of the firm being elsewhere engaged. Mr. Fitzslm mons had thought the matter over until his words were greatly condensed and a yarn could not be corkscrewed out of him. He said all the rejected applicants would be compelled to do, provided they had filled the qualifications required by law, would bo to ask for the license, and tender their cash and go on their waye-' joicing. As to former appeals, in whlch-the rulings of the lower court were sustained as in harmony with the Brooks law, they stood on a very different foundation. Continuing, he said: The actor 18S7in reference to the wholesale liquor trade is directory. The Judge has no dis cretion whatever where the applicant fills .the hill as prescribed, has a character that Is not as called and Is an American citizen. The question of necessity does not enter. MR. CHBISTT ON HOBSON'S CHOICE. B. C. Christy, Esq., calmly stated that if the fluestion of necessity could cot be raised that was all there was of it. All that is needed now is a man to stand well With his neighbors, have a good name and cash enough to pay for his license and lay in stock. Though Morton Hunter, Esq., partially won his case through the decision on the other cases, which was some consolation, yet his, Commonwealth ex rel Kaiser vs. Hill, tell by the wayside. He hadn't seen the opinion, and could not, therefore, analyze the reasoning of the Court. Mr. Hunter had attacked the act of 1SS7 on the ground of unconstitutionality. He stated that in the interest of general trade he considered the law of 1872 much better than that of 1SS7. Under the act of 1872 a man tendered cash for license, gave bond and paid according to the amount of his sales. There was some discussion whether, the Li cense Conrt having adjourned, it wonld not be necessary to hold an fxtra session. Some also tboogbt that the matter must be begun de novo. There wcro said to be some lawyers holding this .view, but the inquirer did not come across any of them, and Messrs. Fitz simmons. R. D. Johnston and William Beardon all supposed that all that was required was that Judge White convene his court and pro ceed. As the Snpreme Court -granted a pro cedendo, which in plain United States means, go on with your rat killing, there doesn't seem to be any other way iu the case, and, as Mr. Fitzsimmons terms it, it would come under the denomination ol unfinished business. A DEATH-BLOW TO SPEAK-EASIES. A general opinion prevailing among laymen was that the decision would be death to speak easies, for in sections ot the city where they flourish best their patrons will no longer play the dodge game, but get up a pony purse and buy a quart. A quart of whisky makes about ten square drinks for seasoned soaks, and they can put in 8 cents apiece and get a very fair article of whisky for that sum. But few people, either, will sneak into a speak-easy when tney can buy a bottle of beer in the same square. In some sections, also, there is wide-spread complaint that since monopoly was es tablished many saloon keepers have decreased the size of beer glasses until a thirsty man must nay 15 cents to get a square drink. This complaint does not come from topers, bnt from men who like a glass of beer now and then, and who have ample means to pay. One of them, whose income is $3,000 a year, said: Don't care to much for the cost as I do for the hoggery. but yet 1 object to paying more for a glass of beer than It Is worth, just as strenuously as I do to paying more for food or wearing apparel than tney are worth. It Isn't sound business and is aemorallzlng. 1 have made arrangements with a brewing company to be supplied with beer by case, and hereafter I'll do most of my drinking at home. The complaint has become more general, -since the flood, and people cannot altogether disabuse themselves of the impression that when they drink water they are wilfully ab sorbing bacilli, bacteria, animalcules, or other animal or vegetable matter which has no place in a self-respecting water supply. x WHAT THEIB COUNSEL SAT. J.Scott Fnrguson and Josiah. Cohen acted for the Wholesalers' and Brewers' Association in presenting paper books to the Supreme. Court in the test case of Wholesaler T.'D. Casey. Yesterday afternoon Mr. Cohen was busy answering calls'from unsuccessful appli cants, bnt be found time to say: It was a great victory .for us. We took the stand that there was no connection between the whole-1 sale act ana the uroocs law, and that all that was necessary In the case or a wholesaler, brewer or bottler was that he bad obeyed the law, was of good moral character andbad proper credentials of citizenship. ' Thefiupreme Conrt will now make Its report to the Court of Quarter Sessions, Jndge Stowe being on the bench, and order that Its decisions be car ried out. We cannot tell, or course, yet, but ltls probable that the rchearings will commence next week. The Court has decided that wholesale licenses must be grren under the law or Its:, and not under tbe old law of 187Z, as the lower court contended. Where there was no remonstrance LICENSES MUST BE GRANTED according to citizenship, obedience to the law heretofore and good moral character. The neces sity for the license has nothing to do with the granting to applicants. J. Scott Fnrgusun came in at this -.point in the conversation and agreed with Mr. Cohen in what had been said. ' Can a retailer who was refused license now ap ply for a bottler's or wholesaler's license?" was osked. 'No, it will only apply to rehearfngs on the applications made at the required time," said ilr. i urguson. an Apparent confliction. Has the Supreme Court reversed Itself In Its de clsionr Well, in some cases there Is an apparent conflict, but not real. This was in cases where the wholesale and retail licenses were intermixed. , The only case we had to work against was Leister's ' appeal, declared October 3, 1SS7, In which the fcupreme Court's decision was that only the records were to be considered. In oar "Book of I'lalntlffln Error, " we stated the following as signments or error: The record does not show anT reason for Ihe re lusal of the application of plaintllt In error for a wholesale liquor dealer's license. The record shows no remonstrance or evidence against the plaintilt's application. The record shows full and complete compliance of the plaintiff In error with the requirements of act or Mar !i 18S7. We lawyers had to be very careful how we ap proached the Snpreme Conrt, as the appeal was in eome tcspects final, and they were not obliged to consider the appellate matter. Those that have been knocked out of business all the time have no redress. ltisaxaseof damnum obseque injuria, or a wrong without redress, and the Court cannot be blamed for any decision it basmae'e. WANT TO KNOW BIGHT AWAST, Mr. Cohen said that they would go before the Court to-morrow and find out just when the - cases wonld be reheard. Several retail applicants came into the office with a shade of hope on their countenances, but went away with the last hope fled, owing to the witheringinswer, "This does not' apply to you. WHAT THE TRADE SATS. T.D.Casey, the wholesaler, when seen by the reporter, said: I have not got much to say. Of course I in glad that it came out all right. I have have had great hopes all along, and this only confirms it. I have lost over P.O00 by the suspension of business In l'lttshnrg, and can get no return. Many of my customers have gone elsewhere. Tom Delaney I guess there is no hope for the retailers. We can do nothing but grin and bear It. SPECULATIONS ON THE FOTTTBE. Several ex-saloon keepers beard hi conversa tion were busily arguing the possibility of every retailer who.did not get a license, next year ap plying for a bottler's or wholesaler's license, and the general opinion was that if nothing un foreseen happened there would be a goodmany wholesalers and bottling houses next year. Said one: I don't see wby It isn't better to have a wholesale license anyway than a retail license. There Is more liquor sold lately by the bottle, hair pint and" quart, by far. And a man could sell Just as much beer by the bottle as by the glass, and make more money that way. MAJOB BROWN ON" LEGAL TOINTS. Major A. M. Brown was approachedv when the report first was circulated, ,but he. was loth to pass an opinion on .it until the full text of tne decision was at nana, ae read, nowgrer, a portion of the finding which referred directly to Pittsburg wholesale liquor dealers and said: Those points." In the rulings of 'the Supreme Court, as to the discretionary power of the lower court concnr-wlth statements made by- many of. onruwiuej lacmaing idbcu, ja spring, wno neldthat Judge White was not vested with the power he assumed by simply granting andreros- Ing as regards wholesalers and bottling licenses. The last section of the wholesale act expressly states that the court shall grant license to any ap plicant who is a citizen, temperate and of good moral character. It then Is not a matter of arbi tration, and U the applicants who were refused last session complied with the law as stated, that or course proved to the Supreme Court that Judge "White had overstepped his bounds. Hence the reversion or his decision follows as a matter or course. Much conjecture has been indulged in as to whether those not appellants in the wholesale trade to the higher court conld secure a re hearing. Major Brown continued by paying: On this point, as stated in the opinion handed down In Mrs. Pollard's case. It says the retail and wholesale laws are most distinctive In the Brooks law. I think the applicant, named will merely reapply, and then, Ifrefuseda rehearing, will appeal to the higher conrt as before, the others will no doubt follow the example, and-act according to this case. THINKS ANOTHER JUDGE WILL SIT. Major Brown laugned when asked if he thought Judge White wouia ever again sit on tho .License Court bench, and said: "No, I think not." John S. Lambie, Esq., after reading the short decision rendered, said: It Is a mistake to say, as staled here, that pro cedendo implies that the Court shall grant any wholesale license; it simply means the Court shall rehear them. Suppose some or these wholesale dealers have been selling "speat-easIes".know-lnglv, what does that bear upon a man's char acter? I simply ask the question. The Court is vested with discretionary power to refuse license if a man's character can be Impeached by any act which docs not savor of good citizenship or morality. Hon. Thomas M. Marshall said regarding tho reversal by the Supreme Court ot Judgo White's decision in the wholesale and bottlers' cases: "It was nothing hut lustIce,of course. Many of the people who made application were not En titled to retail license, and. Indeed, I had clients urge me to present their pleas, etc., who were no more ftt to have a saloon than that jilece of dirt in the gutter," pointing down at a bit of clay. . IT MEAKS A GOOD MANY. A Formidable and Significant 1.1st, Em. bracing 125 KnocUcd-Ont Allegheny County Dcnlcrs Who May Apply Agnin Many Wcnlthy. A very formidable and, in some respects very significant list ot the 125 wholesale, bottling and brewing firms refused licenses in the cities, boroughs and townships of this county, is com piled from the list ot wholesalers in .various capacities who were applicants (compared with the list, as pnblisbed at the time, of the few who were granted wholesale licenses), is ap pended. It is formidable by reason of the numbers, the wealth and Jhe influence of the more or less defunct, brewers, bottlers and wholesalers it represents, and significant be cause of the proportion of tbo applicants who will undoubtedly consider themselves privi leged under the Supreme Court declsjqp to ap ply for rehearings and the right to sell." There may be. included in this list'of 128; two orthree whose applications were withdrawn before their names were called for a bearing; but it is, in the main, accurate, and certainly complete: PrrrsBUBG, Fiiist Wabd.-J.

Liquor Dealers Who Will Get License Will Not Pny BnlncTaxT'lil Tenr. Ihe decision -of the Snpremo Court will have no effect whatever on tho receipts ot the city treasury. The assessments f otvbuslness tax on liquor dealers, both wbolsale, retail and hot- tiers were sot made until after, the licenses, were granted by Judge White. Those who did not receive license were not assessed, and it is now too late to make the; assessments for this year, said Chief Clerk Clark, of the Assessor's office, yesterday. 'The tax would have amounted to little anyhow," be continued. If all the refused wholesalers and bottlers get license, tbelr business will not exceed SL00O, 000 a year, and that makes a business tax of only $1,000," THEEE WlLIi BE BOTTLING Within Five Hours After tho Granting of Einstein's Withheld License. Joseph Einstein & Co., who were the bottlers most actlvo in making the appeal to the Su preme Court, and with whom nine others were joined, expect to commence business within five hours after they procure their license. They now havo fire carloads of beer in their warehouse. This was ordered several days ago, Mr. Einstein being firmly convinced that the Supremo Court would decide in his favor. If the decision had been adverse, the firm wonld simply have nsed the beer elsewhere. Several other bottlers also have barreled beer in stock, and will be able to resume business on short notice. The bottlers who joined in tho appeal were Joseph Einstein & Co., with $42,000 invested in tho business, and sales last year exceeding SCO.- kOOO; Thomas Murray, $20,000 invested and sales last year upward of js,ouu; a. it. iiannosKy, 20,000 invested and sales 25,000; Charles Frlel, 130,000 invested, sales $33,000: Frederick Hawpe, $25,000 'invested,, sales $23,000; Hugh Mc Cutcheon, $12,000 invested, sales $19,000; C.

One of the oldest attorneys in tho city yes terday, in speaking of the action of the Su premo Court in reversins Judgo White and granting tho peremptory mandamus asked by tho Prospect Hill Brewing Company, of Phila delphia, said: The Supreme Court has demonstrated before now its ability to trim its sails to the popular brecie. This is another illustration of the Jus tices' ability to lay their ears to the ground to catch the swell ot the vor-popull. I should not be surprised IT the Supreme Conrt reversed ltscir again and again on all questions which have arisen during the operation or the Brooks law. The books submitted by Pittsburg attornevs eome In for some share of the general credit from the wet standpoint. They were very lucid and able.

Just above tho stone bridge at Johnstown, about 250 yards, Stoney creek joins the Conemangb. Stoney creek, by the bye, is much the larger of the two. The width from the junctidn down to the bridge is about 200 feet the waters covering say about three acres. This is the scene of the worst part of "the jam" above the arch t railroad bridge. Into this space, tho wrecks of sev eral hundred houses with an assortment of debris from stores, warehouses, bridges, wire mills and forest trees were squeezed intd a compact mass. Here also hundreds of human beings, with the furniture of their houses and valuables of all kinds, were in discriminately mingled with the wrecks oi their homes. "With the aid of fire and hoist ing engines all the material standing in heaps above the water level has been re moved. When the writer on Tuesday last visited the place it appeared at .first sight to be a simple matter to remove the remaining por tion of the debns,but after being informed by Messrs. Shaw and Anshutz, who have charge of forces there, that v the depth of water is in some places 26 feet in this pool, and that most of it is fully 15 feet deep below low water surface a different phase is put on the problem. It conld not be learned whether or not there was such a deep bole in the Cono maugh before the flood, but a Pittsburg civil engineer Is inclined to tbo belief that this deep scour in the bed of the creek was made by the passage of a powerful current developing un der the drift, which for a time during the highest water did not touch the: bottom. The, appearance ot the great boulder bars In tho bed of the stream" immediately below the bridge tends to support this conclusion. This engineer has often observed the formation of gravel and boulder bars below ice gorges caused by powerfnl bottom currents excavat ing the bed of the stream beneath the packed ice. At Johnstown instead of ice there was a timber gorge. AN-ENGINEEEIITG IIOEEOR. As the case now stands no more of the stuff in the river can be burned until it is dragged out on the banks, 'deposited in heaps, covered with petroleum and fired. This of course is a very tedious proceeding with' tho inefficient means at command. To expedite the work Major Phillips is sinking charges of 40 pounds each ot dynamite in the water as deep as he can place them. The chief utility of this blast ng is to loosen up the masses of timbers, shake tne Sana xrom tnem ana Durst tne roas ana wires, which seem to have knit the- material together. Just how long It will take to remove all the wood and other debris from this pool it is difficult to estimate. There aro horrors con nected with the work the descriptions qf which would fairly sicken yonr readers. The force of the blasts is something terrific ugly hlack water bolls high in the. air with more or less of the blackened debris, pieces of which are hurled sometimes several 'hundred feet high. As Major Phillips says,,but few men indeed can stand the sickening1 stench created for some timo after the shots are fired, and it is well to be on the windward side in approaching to fasten the lines to timbers. The workmen walk over tho surface of the debris with safety excepting in a crooked channel in the Center, which is probably not clear all the way to the bottom, although there are spots where the bottom can be reached with sounding poles. The effect of the blasting is, of course, to tear the bloated and fast decomposing remains of the dead to fragments, but this must be done. This pool of three acres must be cleared to the bottom, and every bone of the human beings it contains taken out Common human itarlan instincts demand this, because it'muBt not be said that'tbere jUstabove, tho railroad oriage in jonnstown remains a neap oi me dead which could hot be recovered for want 'of means. , , a mine of Wealth. So much blasting has been done, and the con dition of the bodies erf the dead must be such bythis time that they will, never float up. So also has the blasting shaken loose metals,' such as coins, watches, trinkets and jewelry of all kinds, ornaments, etc., and these will gravitate to the bottom. The sand which filled the wreckage in great quantities has long ere this worked to the bottom, and may be now several feet deep, covering ether heavy objects which have dropped irom tne niastca aeons aoove. How to recover these valuables from their submarine bed is a problem' that The Dis patch undertook to solve yesterday. The views of Colonel T. P. Roberts, the well-known engineer, were songht by a reporter. He said tho valuables and all human bones should be recovered by all means. -As to the manner of doinglthesald: "It would appear to the writer, therefore, that after all the floating-debris has been re moved that these three acres must be gone over with a dredge boat, Mr. Shaw suggested it to me while I was in Johnstown as something which would probably have to be done. If it is postponed tbe first considerable flood from either tho Conemaugh or Stony creek will in all probability fill the pool with 10 to 15 feet of gravel and tbe removal of which would vastlylncrease tbe cost should it be proposed in the future to do this work. The best way to do it is to have a hull built at the place' and dredging machinery capable of going to ZS feet depth transported to the place, and put 'on the boat. Instead of ordinary dumping scows two large flat boats should be provided on which the material removed can be sorted over with shovels. There is no doubt that tbe contents of many stores were washed into thisplaice though the chief ''object of doing this work would, of course, bo tho recovery of .human remains. It is work that can be let out by contract to re sponsible parties to advantage. ' THE DBEDOING SCHEME.' "The rough bars referred to in the bed of the creek for several hundred yards below the bridge," continued Colonel Roberts, "should also be dug up and cast back In a systematic way, for the recovery of valuables, which may have been washed through the' bridge. This is work that can be accomplished by hand at a moderate expense. "Johnstown may be referred to as a far worse wreck than that of Pompeii. There tbe in habitants nearly ail escaped witlutbeir lives, and carried oil almost everything of value. But no one can visit the ruins of Johnstown without realizing that he is treading ground more sadly desolated than any of which history makes mention since the destruction of Jeru salem and Carthage: .The place cannot hope to recover as rapidly as did Chicago, for that was a great market and distributing center, to which merchants flocked from every direction. Johnstown was simply the abiding place of an industrions population of working people mostly tho owners ot their own dwellings. They will need enongh from their generous country-, men to provide them at least decent shelter' until with their savings they can rebuild per-, manentlv. The money so far raised Is not more thdn half enough to do even this and yet wo hear that the State expects to do its work of clearing the streets,'and stop work within a week or so, and leave the Johnstown people the weary task of clearing away the sand and debris from a great desert'of hundreds of acres In extent. Can thev do this, while working for their living in the mills? I wot not. .It is to bo hoped that the Governor and his excellently chosen commission will be able to devise means to conclude the work properly." Colonel Roberts' -views are Important in this connection, because of bis engineering experi ence and his investigations on the spot. What Yon Want la an iEolInn Orson. "What would yon do'with it?

The first firm to sign tbe Amalgamated Asso ciation iron scale was the Maum'ee Iron Com Eany, a small concern at Toledo, O. A num. er of Pittsburg firms were visited by a, repre sentative of this paper, and asked what they would do. Ho very satisfactory replies- were received, as the manufacturers would not state positively what their intentions are, except to. say iney win not sign tne scale as it now stands. A. M. Byers & Co, did not care to talk on the subject, but said that they would not sign the scale. When asked whether a conference wonld be held with the men tney declined to I say. J. Painter & Sons said they would not sign, but declined to say anything further on tbo subject. Jones & .Xanshlins, Oliver Bros. & Phillips, Zng & Co., Shoenberger- & Co. and other large manufacturers made the same reply to the question. A man who is posted on the iron trade in this section said yesterday that thrde large firms would undoubtedly sign before many days, as they are crowded with orders. They are A. Ji. Byers & Co., the Pittsburg Forge and I.ron Company, Jones & Laugblins and Oliver Bros.& Phillips, He said that these firms arc crowded with orders and cannot very well aiTord to close their works at this time even for repairs that are usually made in the summer. A member of the firm of Carnegie, Pbipps it Co. was seen yesterday and sard: "We have not received any signers to our Homestead scale, and I do not know whether it would be advisa ble to make it public if any had signed. I can- ..... ...itla, .lA M,,.t (,.. ..... .... ..A AA.tAr..A. uu, jiiumb, tut? icuit.uu, vvt3 uu uu, iiuuuuaui any serious trouble.' I have not considered the iron scale very carcrully yet, nut II it Is a fair scale we will likely' consider it favorably." THE IKON WORKERS' SCALE. Jones ifc Lnnjjhllns Have Not Yet Agreed to Sign It. , Hon. B. F. Jones, of the American Iron Works of Jono & Laughllns, was seen last even ing in regard to a report that his firm had called for a conference with the mill commit tee and wonld likely sign the Iron workers' scale. He said: We have-not. yet considered the matter and I cannot say whether we sign it as it now stands or not. Ueneral Manager Barnes has been consult ing all day with a committee ilront the steel de partment ou their scale and anotber conference will be held to-morrow. The scale in this depart ment may be satisfactorily arranged, but It wilt not affect' more than 10U men. The scale as drawn up by tho Amalgamated As sociation may be satisfactory to a number or firms, while others cannot afford to sign It. I believe a number of firms who do not manufacture certain grades- or kinds of Iron where serious changes have been made will sign. U'e have not examined the scale' very closely and I do not care to talk on the subject, but I do not think we will sign. Mr. Jones said they had orders, but that they had been pretty well cleared up. if there is any indication of trouble with the workers they will refuse to receive any more, orders. Ha was very guarded in replying to the ques tions asked him, hut said if certain concessions were made by the workers' organization that a strike might be avoided. PDltE WATER. Chemically Pare nnd Perfectly Clear Water Near nt Hnnd. Messrs. .Hnllcr, Beck & Co. are now giv ing away large quantities of the purg. water that condenses from the evaporated artesian water used at their saltworks onEebecca street, Allegheny. A chemical analysis shows this condensed water to be perfectly pure. Messrs. Heenan and Brown, both residents of Allegheny, who have just re turned from Johnstown, report great quan tities of filth being dumped into the river there, and say that if the people conld see these dumps they certainly would not drink any river water.. Many families are secur ing the pure water from Messrs. Haller, Beck & Co. for drinking and cooking pur poses. The firm is preparing a reservoir for saving this condensed water, and' would be glad to have all persons avail themselves of it. It will be free to all for the'present. No filtering needed. The water is clear as crystal. SECOND HAND STEINWAYS CIIICKERINGS AND At Klebor & Bro.'s, 506 Wood Street.

Too Many tlobbies to Bait All Members of the Old Parties. A MASS. MEETING 10 BE HELD IN J0LI Eight of the mfist persistent workers in Allegheny'coanty for prohibition met last .evening in the office of B. 0. Christy, E$q.v j-i u. no .lsiuiuuui &i,reeu xe3iuesiur. touristy. there were present John E. Shaw, attorney; N. Samson, undertaker; D. F. Magtll 'at torney; A. C. Kankin, the temperance lec turer and ex-labof leader; Ifev, I. U". Hays, James M. Nevin, attorney, and J. B. John ston. , The meeting lasted from 8 until 10 o'clock, and was held with closed doors Mr. Christy was made temporary Chairman and John E. Shaw temporary Secretary. These' two gentlemen told what had been done. The preliminary steps were taken for the organization of :the Union Prohibitory Xeague of Allegheny county. This will be a branch of 'the Union Prohibitory League of Pennsylvania, the nucleus of which was fcVmed in Philadelphia about the middle of May. The State constitu tion was adopted with only such modifications as were necessary to.make it a county instead of a State organization. POUND TO SECTJBE' PKOniDITIOIT. The first paragraph cT this constitution says: "We, the undersigned voters of Allegheny county, associate ourselves together fo con stitute the Union Prohibitory League of Alle gheny County." Articlo II says: "Our object is the suppression of the saloon. In order to do this we unite to secure (1) the strict enforce ment of tbe prohibitory measures of existing laws relating to theliquor traffic; (2) tbe early enactment of more stringent and prohibitory, statutes, with adequate penalties; (3) the final' adoption of constitutional prohibition for the State and nation." Artidn 111 savx? "VVe declare n.) That we owe primary alleglance to God and humanity,' to our country and Com- juuuneaiMi, anu wui noiu ail party amiiations subordinate to these higher claims. (Z.) That, retaining our personal liberty to cbooso our polit ical associations as to us shall seem best, we pro-' claim that we are.. and- will forever be free from the dominion of the liquor power, and demand that all political connection between the saloon and the Sta'e, through whatever political party, shall be forever totally dissolved. OBJECTIOKS TO A THIED PAETTl "There were no-real differences of opinion among those present,'r.said Mr. Christy, "but' it took some time' to explain all the objects of the league. Some persons favor a third party bnt that will not world I call your attention particularly to section atticle III, of tho Constitution. That is the kind of an organiza tion we mnst haye. The great idea was to keep all these persons belonging to different parties, bnt who still favor prohibition, in line with us. It's, no use to ask all of them to join the Prohibition party. 'Why,' says one, ;l am not going into a third party. I'm' a Democrat, and I don't favor female suffrage.' Another man says: 'I'm a Democrat; and I can't subscribe to all the hobbies of a third party.' The f undametal idea is to keep these many voters in such a position that tney "will continue to vote for prohibition, and yet not lose their personal privileges and preferences In other ways. It Is necessary to put tbe brakes on some fast trot ters occasionally." ETEETOIfE ON COMMITTEES. In addition to the adoption of the State League constitution,-there was a committee appointed at the meeting consisting of Messrs. A. C. Rankin, J). F. Magill, H. Samson, J. R. Johnston and James M. Nevin, to draw np an other platform. Messrs. John E. Shaw and L N. Hays, as a .committee on organization, will consult with the Committee on Platform. It was also decided to call a mass meeting of prohibition voters-to be held at Lafayette Hall on July 11 at 10 a. m., It is not likely any further action will be taken by the com- mitiee until ine mass meeting is neia.
