lIiE LIQLOR LAW.

The Maine Liquor Law. or more prop
erly speaking. the Minnesota Liquor l.; W.
which was adopted by the people on the
fifth ut, goes into operation on Monday.
The Proclamation Of the Governor,
which we this day publish, is the last Of
fetal act required by the provisions of
that law TO be complied with, TO cons,i-
tute legal evidence that the act has been
adopted.
We have tu: little to say on this sub
ject at the present time, as our views
have been often expressed, and are well
understood; and what we do say is re-
peating what we have before said. The
law is passed and upon cur statute books,
and it is the duty of every good citizen
to yield obedience to it. No matter what
his private convictions in reference to its
expediency or constitutionality may have
been, he is bound as lover of good or
der, TO uphold it. 1t is as much the duty
Of those who opposed its passage, to yield
4 willing obedience 10 its provisions as it
is of those who were its supporters. II
i, be unconstitutional, the proper remedy
is in the Supreme Court. If it be deiec-
tive in some OF its details, it can he a.
mended by the next Legislature and the
friends of the measure will cordially IT,
mite with its opponents for that purpose.
But unless it be fairly tried no one can tell
with any certainty whether it needs to be
amended or otherwise.
But the friends and supporters Of this
law, those who commenced the temper
ance movement, and first urged the adop-
ton of the law, have a duty TO perform.
They should be cautions and moderate in
The adoption Of measures for its execu-
lion. Firmness and steadincss of pur-
pose is not opposed to this. Let no rash
or extreme measure be adopted, for in
such case the sympathy of the populace
would be on the side Of the liquor dealer,
which would tend m,re than any oher
one thing towards bringing about speedy
reaction OF sentiment, Of fatal conse-
quence TO the law.
II these things be kept in view by all
parties, we have no doubt, even if the
law does not prove as successful as its
friends anticipate, but what beneficial re-
suits will be realized.

Great Flood in the Ohio River Loss of Property
A flood is now prevailing on the Ohio
river and its tributaries, unprecedente ed
since the freshet Of 1882. A despatch
from Pittsburgh, dated the 2Oh inst,
gives details OF great losses at that place
and points above. At that time the wa
ter was still rising, and accounts from
above represent both the Allegany and
Monongahela as swelling rapidly. A
large body Of snow, two or three feet
deep, was still lying in the valley of the
A!legany, and every where, above and
be'ow, the rain was punring down with
out intermission- Hundreds Of RATS had
been torn from their nloorings on the up
per rivers and were sweeping down with
the floods. At Pittsburgh $50. 600 worth
Of property had already been destroyed.
AT Wheeling, on the 2Oih inst, there
was forty feet wafer in the channel, and
the water rising at the rate OF six inches
per hour. All the merchants on river
street were preparing for an overflow.
AT Wellsville, same date, the water
had reached the height which it attained
in 1882, and was still rising at the rate of
four inches per hour. The loss Of prop
erly in the vicinity is represented as be-
ing immense. Numerous dwellings had
floated past the town, and reports were
rife Of great loss of life. Great fears
We're entertained for the safety of the
Sandy and Beaver Canal reservoir.
A despatch from Cincincinati, dated
the 2Oth, says the river had risen five
inches there during the past 4S hours. 1t
had then reached within four feet of the
flood Of 1892. 1t was raining hard, and
the river was still rising.
The lower town Of Allegany is entire
ly under water.-Chicago Tribune.
