Metc0ric ShOWerN--It is stated that the
eclipses OF 1918, 1887, 1914, and 1900
were all followed by meteoric showers,
and the grea. annular eclipse Of 1903 was
followed by a tremendous fall Of meteor
ic bodies, by which many houses were in
tired, several set on fire and one or two
persons killed at the hamlet Of Hor,sgen,
Bavaria. a remarkable feature ulso was
that other showers occurred on line par
nllel with the line along which the eclipse
was perfectly nnnular. The attention OF
observers is now difec!td to the investi-

know OF nothing in the Constitution to
prevent it from regulating and restrain
ing the traffic. or prohibiting altogether.
But" says an opponent. "our pres
ent Statute recognizes liquor as property,
and your prohibitory law would destroy
this property"
Ans-lntoxicating liquors would not
be property under prohibitory law. but
an unla wful article. There would be no
more property in them. ;han there is in
the goods Of the smuggler. or the appa
ratus of the Counterfeiter. To bring
King Alcohol, his makers and vendors,
into this close corner, is our aim. The
citizens of Indiana have just as much
right TO declare this great enemy an out
law. as they have to pass the sentence Of
outlawry upon other practices. which
tend to disturb the peace and corrupt the
morals Of society. Mankind have no
moral and should have no legal right to
follow the run traffic.
But there is another view to be take n
OF this property matter. Look at the
thousa nds and tens of thousands of dol
lars which are spent every year in our
State for intoxicating liquors-,hen look
at the 2rostra'ion of intellect; the ruin
of worldly prospects; the degradation of
character; the beggary and woe of fami
lies; the lrightful amount of vice and
disease and death which flows from the
liquor trafic-take all these into consid-
era ton, and how ridiculous does the plea
sound, "your prohibitory Jaw destroys
property" A prohibitory law would save
:hc State vast amount OF property every
yenr. to say nothing abou; the distress
which it would relieve. and the moral,
sing influence which il would exert upon
community. w.

A PfOhibitOry Law.

Mr.. EDIToR:-My friend Observer, in
his last communication. quotes few
passages of Scripture. some of which
will be briefly noticed. Let us eat and
drink. for to- morrow we die" Cor. Is.
81. This passage, whatever the apostle
referred TO, does not prove that drunken
ness or drunkard making. is justifable
Neither does it prove that it is wrong for
commonwealth to pass laws which will
put stop to drunkenness.
The next passage is quoted from Tim.
IA: Every creature of God is good
and nothing 10 be refused" &c. Nell.
the apostle was undoubtedly correct
but God did not make intoxicating
liquors. These do not belong to His
works. but to the works of man. Ma
turs. in her unadulterated state, does no,
contain alcohol. Intoxicating liquors
cannot be made. without destroying the
inherent properties. which nature posses
ses in her original form.
Every creature Of God is not good to
drink or cat. God has given US an abun
dance to satisfy hunger and thirst-bu
portion Of every thing which he has Gre
ated, animal. vegetable. and mineral,
should be taken into the human stomach
lie has other uses for His works, other
designs to carry out.
The property matter will next be con
sidered. Observer hints at this subject.
but others more than hint, that prohibi
tory law is unconstitutional in its bear
ings, because when put in force il de-
stroys property. Ans-the Constitution
undoubtedly secures 10 the States the
right OF prohibiting the liquor traffic. or
any other traffic. that operates against
the general welfare of society. On this
point ] am backed up by good authority.

Publishing the Laws,

The propriety of publishing the laws
made for our government, to the greatest
possible extent. is no new suggestion
1t doubtless got its origin from the sim
pie inquiry-"Father, what wilt thou
have me do?"
1t would seem extremely oppressive
even heathenish, to witness the parent
INJECTING severe punishment upon an in
nocent child for the commission of an
act--a wrong. when the offender had
wrong. or the consequences attending its
preparation. The doctrine that the alb
origines of this once wilderness are to
be punishable with endless torment. be
cause they fail 10 believe and be baptized
may be as easily sustained. "Where lit
tie is given, little is required"
The Ohio Statutes contain a provision
for the publication Of the laws in every
county. The policy works we'll. In in
Vulnerable instances it prevents irritabl
lawsuits and toilsome and expensive li,i-
CATION. When the laws are placed with
in the reach Of every one at cheap IL,
there is less danger of their violation
IL is customary with law makers to ap-
pend. "this act is to take effect from and
after its publication Publication in
some shape or other.

would be a reflection upon the intelli-
gence Of our readers 10 attemp, on ex-
PLANTATION. But 10 offer suggestions for
them to turn over and weigh well in their
own minds. is certainly no presumption
on our part; and as we have before done.
we still urge the dlre necessity Of pub
