upon my ministration, and at the socialineet

his sixteenth 'year, by tho name of Frank
Hurlburt, second son of Cyrus Hurlbut& of
that town.
Frank bad made a public .profession of
faith in Chris', and be made it the rule of his
life to be in his place in the Congregation
where the Lord had promised to Meet with
his children. The ,result was, that while
others, who enjoyed Its good, : U not:better
opportnnities and privileges, became care
less and indifferent, this young desciple lost
none of his "first love" for the dear He-.
Oehler.

and for the cause of Quiet grew with his

But recently I have learned that the Muter
had called him, ''to come up higher."

the promise that they shall receive a crown
of life.
Ah would there were . many more faithful
ones; who illustrate in their death that the
design, purpose, and end of religion, is that
the "Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in

from some cause, the stick in ,his hand re-'
ceived a blow, and it, with some fifteeen other
sticks, exploded with a turn& noise. killing
Miller instantly,and making havoc with every
thing about the fire. 11r. Rolls says he turned
and saw away up in the smoke-filled air. what
he thought was a stamp, and said to a fellow
workman, Isla is queer Miller didn't warn us of
a blast." They ran to the spot aril found the
remains of Miller horribly mangled. His right
arm was torn away just above the elbow. both
his feet were blown off, and big face. head and
body fearfully mangled. It was a ghastly sight.
By, direction of Superintendent flatlet, who at
once telegraphed the „Had event to Mill.os
father. J. H. Robertson, took charge of the
effects of the victim, `had the remains prop
erly cared for, coffined and buried in a grove,
to await the final dispositioe by friends and
relatives. Mr. Robertson found $221 in money
on the body of Millet e and has charge of his
trunk, watch and cloiliing, It is thought that
Miller has considerable money deposited with
the company, and ha;field a number of obli
gations against men here. He was a - son of
Andrew Miller, of Factoryville, Wsomiog Co.,
Pa., among the wealthiest and most promi
nent men of that county. The report of the
accident caused a feeling of undisguised sor
row among his many friends and acquaint
ances here, and a similar. feeling among rail
road men, with whom he was very popular.
Not only was he a consistent member of the
M. E. Church. but possessed of those manly
qualities of mind and heart which l endeared
him to all who became intimately or even cas
ually sognsinted'with him. He stood high in
the favor of auperintendent Hallet, and his
early promotion had be en decided upon. Mr.
E. F. Dairson, of Moran Prairie, who was a
near neighbor of the UMW* in Pennsylvania._
telegraphed for instructions as to the dispo
sition of the remains. - Mr. Dawson; being an.
intimate friend, of the Miller family, is sparing
no pains or expense in doing all that is pos
sible for them here. He is investigating the
financial matters of the deceased, and soy
oils having ioformatiOn relating • to these
affairs, aro requested to leave word with J. T.

CLARE.
The Court and License.
The Supreme Court rules that, "Whether
ieenses should be granted is a legislative not
a judicial question. Courts sit to adminiiiter
the law fairly as it is given to them
. and not
to make or repeal it." I
Under our present license law the Court has
some discretionary authority. Did important
to the people that they know its proper limit,
otherwise they are liable to censure the Couit
for that for which they may themselves be to
blame.
In the first place the law seems to assume'
that no person has the right to sell alcoholic
beverages' without a license, and, second. that
places where such beverages are kept and for
sale are .necessary for the accommodation of
the public. These questions are outside the
jurisdiction of the Court; fixed facts in law,
which the Court must keep in view. .
Suppose from a Ward or township in which
'there is no licensed house there comas to the
Court an application signed by fifteen citizens,
and a remonstrance signed by three handfed.
The remonstrance iota forth no specific
grounds against the applicant for license, but
is, bawd upon the evils of the traffic. The At-
tornev for the remonstrants goes over the
whole ground in the case, and finally urges,
that it is a fundamental. principle in our gov
ernment that it is the right of the people to
rule, that in this case there are three hun
dred voters including all the better class o
itizens, against fifteen not noted for good'
standing and respectability , in com munity
that this fact alone should [a etermine the case
against the applliant.
The Judge remarks that' the decision of the
Con * O - on this Application rests whollY upon
the eoision of the questiop as to whether this
ease‘iomes properly withtn the discretion of
the Court under the pregent license law.. The ,
merit or demerit of the ',license question
general does not enter into this question
That, the law conchides. It is not a question
the Court can traverse. Does this case come
within the proper discretion of the Court?!,
The law Must be presumed to intend that for
which it provides. • It provides forlicense. It
recognizes the necessity for licensed houses.
The entire provisions of the statue rest - od
this fact. It provides for license where twelve
sign the application: The principle (in which'
'the "local option law" was based, was; - thst in
localities where the people were opposed to,
licesae, there license should not be granted
That • law was , speedily repealed end the pies -I
ent one enacted in its, place. .This act is
directly tho opposite hi principle: It pro.
yidea for the accommodation of the Minority
in a community, even though small. If the
Court were -to adopt the practice of refusing
licenses where the majority of the people wert?
opposed to Its being granted, such , practice
would amount ftil' a practical repeal of the
present law and to re-enactment of the one
repealed.. This would be clearly an abuse Of
its'authority. Tie discretion given clearly
intends no such thing. It may seem like in
justice, a hardship. and a great wrong, to
ii
plant liquor agencies in communities against
'
the remonstrance or the muses of , the poi
ple, but the 4 Court is "not responsible for this
wrong. The Conrst is ever under the neces
sity! of regarding the law as the authoritative
expsession of the • will of the people. The man I
who holds license holds it by virtue of this
authority. He is the,agent of the people fol. 1
this specific purpose. If he disobeys his in
structions by violating the law under which, i
he . i3olde license, the Court will revoke it. If
it le proved that an applicant has done! this
thell Court will refuse license. Or if there is a
much larger number of applicants for license'
in any community than is needed for the ac
comModation of the public, it comes within "I
the discretion of the Court to grant only eo
Much as may be deemed necessary to answer
the policy of the law. Of the wisdom of this
policy the Court is not ; the judge. That is a
question for the people and•their law-making
agents to decide. The Courts. are to admini
liter the law as It comes to •them. It wik
General Greta I believe who made this trut&li
ftd remark, 'That the best" way to get a bad'
law repealed was to faithfully administer it."
If the people command one tbiog while they
want. another- they must expect their com.
muds to be obeyed while their requests are
disregarded. SeVeral legislatures bate been
elected since the pr.eent law has
. - been in
force. With but one exception the parties in'
the State have held their annual conventions
without expressing any coridemnaticin of the
repeal of the "local option law," or instruct.
kg their nominees in.fOor of the repeal of
the law now in force, so that, so far as any
authoritative expression of the people is con
cerned it must be 'regarded as in favor of the
present is'r. - There has been no important
question of litate policy before the people 'for

Voting the year 1812 Tun Tatar:is hers to
employ with increasing success the work and the
methods which have won for it so large* measure
of popular approval. It lout attained, and mesas
never to lose, the high Standard of SUCeede which
was limed at by its founder, the largest circula
tion among the boat people. So large a drools
lion and one so widely diatribued over the entire .
territory of the Nation has never been attained
by any other newspaper in the United States.—
We accept this fact as the verdict of the Arnett-
can people upon the conduct and Character of '-
Tun Tinthisne. The position it occupies amt.* .
liner have been gained nor retained bet by Ore*
eminent manna as a newspaper, as an organ of .;
pound opinion, and an advocate of Just public
measures. - -
In short, Tea Taunus will, as neretofors, con-
'Unue to be the medium of the best thought and
the voice of the best conscience of the time; will •
keep abreast of the highest progress, favor the t
freest discussion, hear all sides appeal always
to the most , enlightened intelligence and the
purest morality, and refuse peremptorily theater '
to the tastes of the vile or Eno prejudices of the .
_ignorant.
-The well-known special features.of TrisTimmin
will be carefully maintained. Its Agricultural •
Department will remain as it, is, the fullest and -
beat. The Household and Young Folks' Deport
merits, the literary, scientific, and religions les- •
tune, the standard market reports, will all be
kept up and extended as opportunity may serve,
