WHISKY FRAU DS.

The inherent evil of the whisky business
is well Illustrated by the immense frauds
which il originates. Men engaged in honor
able business pay their Government, taxes !;
and but few cases occur in which dealers in
dry goods, groceries, o< any kind Of useful
merchandise, are convicted of detrauding the
Government. In the liquor business, how.
ever, lying, perjury, fraud and theft are uni>
versal.
The Congressional committee Of invests
CATION, in a recent report to the House, ex
press the belief that at least seven>eighths of
the entire amount Of spirits manufactured
under the present law have escapedtaxation;
and that'few, If any, Of the large distilleries
in the United States are doing legitimate
business. Almost every day We see am
nouncements by telegraph Of the discovery
Of frauds perpetrated by dstillers and brew>
ers. The whole business Of liquor-making,
and selling, and drinking, is utterly demon
alizing from beginning to end. 1t makes
men untrue to each other and disloyal to the
country. The dramshops, during the war,
were the headquarters OF treason and cop.
perheadism. Alcoholic and political poison
seem to have natural affinity, and are ever
found operating together. To cheat their
customers BY adulterating their liquors, and
to defraud the Government BY making false
returns, are performances in which liquor
dealers are ambitious to excel. BY their ne.
farious business they are not only defraud.
ing their customers, and the country, but
they have robbed themselves Of all patriotic
feeling and Of all sense Of Temper
ancs Platform.

RuIwer somewhere says, to mark
comparatively short period ftime, mine
generations Gf highYaymen had passed
away" and the sHeeessioP OF officials IN
this state has been SO rapid that the eKE-
governor and subordtnstes are innHmer-
able. Gov. Flanders hiss carried his gov
ernment at the point Of the bayonet and
now reigns in the stead Of Gov. Wells.
It is lust and wise to hold a survey
over the treasury, which be found par
tieularlv hollow. He will take means,
II is said. to Feinstate it, but has not yet
disclosed the process. EX=lfOv. Wells
notifies the public and ali mankind that
he denies the power Of legal removal.
may be remarked that the police and
the inspector who have been removed,
are likewise fling their protests, not
like Gov. Wells, for the honor Of the
state and the maintenance of great prin-
eiples, but for their salaries. They had
better 90 to work.

MUNICIPAL REBORN.

There can be no question bat that the
new authorities are doing some acts OF
public advantage which could not have
been expected from their predecessors,
Elective municipal government has
proved in many respects failure That
of New York, for instance, is nominated
bv certain classes who are interested
either in an indulgent execution OF the
laws. or in deriving special advantages
from corporate legislation. By eonse-
nuence the offices and contracts OF New
York city have been bestowed on party
friends, and its health and Office regula-
tiOns have been badly enforced. Parton
saws the death rate is the highest in the
world. The military power IS under no
restrictions. 1t is responsible to no con-
stituency and can do every act It may
deem advantageous TO the public. 80
our street commissioner can compel the
water company to supply water, and the
mayor can order the police to assist the
bosri of health in enforcing its rules.

Notwithstanding the confident assur-

not unreasonable to expect that
the vote and influence OF this

placed at the disposal Of those who

THE ATTORNEY GENERALS OPINION
1t was obvious that this report was in

The Chieot Press, of the Sth inst, says
a little boy named Joe Davis, on the day
before, killed twenty snakes in about
one hour, in the road near his mothers
residence. The kind of snake is not
mentioned, but we suppose it must have
been pretty good day for snakes, even
near Lake Village. The same paper
saws the excessive heat of the last few
days has effeetuslly destroyed the cut
worms that were threatening havoc to
the crops. Fears OF an inundation were
