MONDAY. MARCH 20. 18B0
OUR COUNTRY : First. Last and Forever
The indications nre the inoinburs
of tlie Letrisluture will adhere to tho
resolution Tor finnl adjoiirmiient on
April 20.
TlIKIlK is a noticeable absence of
enthusiastic editorials In Demodrntio
newspapers over the many recent
increases in wages.
Dkmociiatic candidates for county
offices are springing up like mush
rooms. Many will wither under tlie
summer sun's rays.
In the light of recent events, there
is a universal feeling that Thomas J.
Joyce, the ex-editor, was more sinned
against than sinning and shall be
pardoned to let some one else have
Ills cell.
Isn't this legal holiday business be
coming a farce f Tlie legislature has
added unotlier one to the large list in
tills state, notwithstanding that most
of them are indifferently observed.
Thk Legislatiye probers resume
their work again this evening, when
Mr. Coyle, late of Schuylkill county,
will tell his story and as a matter of
course enter a general denial of the
oharges made against him.
Onk wonders why tlie ISTow Jersey
legislature in such vigorous language
recently denounced tlie proposed com
bination of the great coal interests,
and yet is so indifferent to tlie gas,
electric and other trusts that are
more inimical to tlie public good.
The coal combination was denounced
as a detriment to the state and a hard
ship upon the people, and the legisla
ture called on the Attorney General
of the state to prepare a bill that
would prevent its operation in the
state. Why did thev not urge a gen
eral law that would prevent all such
combinations ?
Defective Legislation.
Legal talent, so far as it may be
gauged by the number of lawyers on
the rolls, is by no means scarce in the
legislative body of this state. No
bill becomes a law without having
passed the scrutiny of membersof the
legal profession. But it often quite
too often happens that the acts of
legislatures are found to be fatally de
fective as soon as an attempt is made
to enforce them. Laws which to the
layman appear td be all that could be
desired to carry out the purpose of
their enactment are found to have
loop holes big enough for a circus
band wagon and tlie elephants to pass
through them.
A case in point lias recently oc
curred in Tennessee. The legislature
of that state, at its last session, after
grave deliberation, enacted an anti
cigarette law. It provided severe
penalties for selling cigarettes, and
the advocates of tlie measure sup
posed they hud the traffic in that com
inodity at their meroy.
But tlie statute says never a word
about giving away that sort of goods.
No perceptible diminution of tlie con
sumption of cigarettes is perceptible
in any part of the state. Tlie dealers
simply add the price of a bunch of
these seductive little things to some
other article for which the customer
calls, meanwhile tipping the tradi
tional soda fountain wink, and the
cigarettes are given away.
It seems strange that tiiis old,
familiar blunder in law making should
have been worked off again, while
thousands of well-informed citizens,
earnestly favoring the enaetment of
an effective law, were watching every
step of the proceedings. Perhaps it
was not a mistake on the part of the
framers of the bill. Legislation has
suffered many defeats at tiie hands of
its supposed friends, both in this and
other states.

Kver ulnee the police interference admit
n week ngo with the demonstration In
honor of Ocneral Mnxlmo Onrcia, the
police hnve been unpopular with the pop
ulace, who jeer nt them nml declare thorn
inclllcicnt. The trouble occurred nt n
public nmlntto ball in San Jose street,
nn unsnvory iiunrter of Havana. Mnny
Cuban otlloers, colonels nml enptntns
amonc them, attended the nffalr. A po
liceman on duty in that street, follow
ins orders to prevent n crowd collecting
in front of the building where the ball
was in progrewi, asked the group of mo-l
to go in or diapersc. Ills request wns
unheeded, and afte repeating It he wns
attacked by the group, whereupon many
men issued from the building, set upon
him, took nwny his club and revolver and
handled him roughly.
The policeman immcdlntcly notified
headquarters, who ordered 20 reserves
to the scene of trouble. The crowd had
prepared for their arrlvnl. It Is said
they opened with n revolver fire upon tlie
police, which the latter returned, the
shooting being kept up until the am
munition wni exhnustcd. The opponents
of the police acted with determination in
the nITray. Many who were in tlie
building mounted to the roof, which is
comparatively low, and fired upon the
poll co from thnt point. They were ap
parently well armed, and this fact, to
gether with the resolution with which
they fought, seems to confirm the belief
that the nttacking party was mostly
made up of Cuban officers, ns ordinary
civilians would hnve fled from the ro
Tolvcrs of the police.
Many women were wounded. A re
port is in circulntion thnt two of the in
jured civillnns hnve succumbed to their
wounds, but this is not confirmed.
Among those seriously hurt nre Police

thnt mnny were wounded who withdrew

numerous arrests followed.
It is reported thnt nnother conflict be
