We ARE gratified to find that the
people in the various counties are cast
ing about for TIT cir very best men, as
members of the Constitutional Conven-
ton. In Lewis county, Judge MATHEW
EDMIsToN, JONATHAN NJ. BENNETT, and
Judge ARNOLD are named in this con-
nection; in Wood, Gen. JACKSON, OKEY
JOHNSON, J. n. CAMDEN and others are
suggested; in Preston, Hon. WIN. g..
BROWN, our friend CARROLL, and Mr..
HEERMANs have been mentioned; in
Marion, ALT. RAYMOND, FoNTAIN SMITH,
JAMES MORROW, Jr., A. Brooks FLEM-
ING, are amongst the names we remem-
Der to have heard; and so on through
the State. 1t is clear the Convention
will be composed Of the most competent
men West Virginia can muster. The
people intend to select the best men,
and men who believe that important
changes in the Constitu ton are needed.
The New York Times Radical don't
believe the Ohio Democracy have "de-
parted" after all. 1t thus explains:
"The Ohio resolutions are simply a
declaration that, since the amendments
to the Constitution cannot be repealed,
and since the people will not allow them
to be violated by force, the Democracy
will accept them as facts, and devote
all their energies to find an opportunity
of defeating their ends by legislation.
Those amendments declare the exist
ence of certain rights, and bestow upon
Congress the power TO protect those
rights by legislation. The Democracy
have the GOODNESS to seek control Of
Congress, solely in order that legislation
intended to vindicate the rights receg-
nized by the amendments may be re-
pealed, and any further legislation in
the same direction refused. They do
not deny that they regard the purpose
Of the amendments as wrong, nor that
they think that purpose ought to be
defeated. They only acknowledge that
1t is impracticable to defeat it by either
repeal or revolution, and declare their
intention to defeat it by paralyzing the
agency through which alone it can be
carried out.

which was established IN the be-
ginning of 1928. This paper Is one
of the most influential in the coun-

by a rigid adherence to, and q fear

in Church and State. 1t has both

ment, kept distinct; and although
not political or partisan in its char
acter, it freely expresses and ably
defends its view on matters of pub.

half a century a light in the Church
and a pillar in the State. It will
celebrate Its Jubilee by presenting
to each one of its new subscribers a
NEW YEAR-BooK-an encyclopaedia
of the most valuable information in
regard to all those matters in tho

DR.. Parker, the President, stated
that tbirty.three ard a third per
cent. of all deaths IN New York
were occasIoned directly or indI-

drinks, and that in the last thirty
years one hundred and ninety thou>

Harris, Inspector of Prisons, stated
in his report, that on visiting fifty

found that seventy-fve per cent. Of
all crimes committed were traceable

ments are enough to startle ORDER

from their propriety. DIR. Parker
held that drunkenness was u disease

whisky the Origin Of the Chi

After all'that has been SAID rela.
tive to the origin of the Chicago
fire, IT turns out last that whisky
was at the bottom of it. A Chicago
correspondent Of the Ner York o.
server says:
"The singular tale of the oil lamp
and the cow in De Koven street lie
apocryphal. Anne Maloney, the
owner OF three cows. utterly repu-
dates The idea of attending her lit
tie DAIRY at balf-pass nine o'clock
at night she clearly saw the
flames begin in q German tailor's
shanty, where q number of bis com
panions had been drinking and car
ousing all Sabbath afternoon. Pres
ident Jefferson SAID that the cup had
caused more mischief during bis
administration of eight years than
all other causes combined. Here
whisky, yi~lding a few shillings to
tbe saIoon>keeper, costs our coun.
try 250 ,OO0, 900 and hundreds Of

The Grand-Duke Alexis.

This member of the imperial fam
lily OF Russia has landed in New
York, and the city is almost wild IN
ITS recepuon of him. While 1t is
certain that snobs will make them
selves ridiculous IN dong homage
TO this royal parsonage, yet it Is
undoubtedly well enough that his
soiourn here should be made as
agreeable as possible. Russia, like
the United States. is one OF the
great nations of the future. With
her vast territorial extent, she has
only TO learn constitutional govern
men., civil and religious liberty and
popular education 10 dwarf every
other nation in Europe by her
greatness. The time is coming
when the three leading nations of
the world will be tue Republic of
the United STATES, the Empire OF
Russia, and the Republic of Austra>
liza. The time comes when the wes-
tern nations of Europe will be
dwarfed by the greatness of Russia
IN the North, and the United States
in the west, and Australia at the
east. This is what the. brother
hood of two great nations means.
When we come into the empire Of
the world we will be friends. Rus
STA has much to learn of US. The
Grand-Duke will find here no re-
preston IN religious matters and
general education. He will find
here the people can be relied on &c
govern themselves.

g Temperance Legssiation.

-
Under the above heading, the
Herald, of last week, publishes an
article from the Albany Lac JoVrn-
al, which takes the position that all
laws that regulate, restrain or pro-
hlbit the sale of alcoholic liquors
r sumptuary laws. This is the
old bar-room argument, and we
we're surprised to see such an arti-
Gle in the columns of our neighbor,
after its professions of being in ia
vor of temperance, and u present
liquor laws, although we knew
those professions were all sham.
and made only 10 hold votes TO sus-
tain the Republican party.
The idea that laws regulating, re-
atraining and prohibiting the sale
Of intoxicating liquors are samptu-
airy is about as tenable as the posi-
ton would be that laws prohibiting
borse-stealng. arson and murder
arc sumptuary. A s%umptuary law
is one that regulates the personal
expenses of living of the individuals
of o community, and is not one tina:
has for its object the prohibition o.
crime. That alcoholic liquor max
ing and selling, for the purpose OF
beng used as q beverage, is a crime
at least equal IN magnitude to those
of horse-stealIng, Rrson and muir
der, no one who will look about
him and see the results will for a
moment doubt. If 1T is such q helm
Gus crime, and at least one-half of
the liquor dealers even will admit
it to be, why should IT not be pro-
hib,ted as other crimes aref The
Herald, by borrowing another's
brains, responds, "wby, although IT
is high crime, yet lawsto prohibit
1t are sumptHary, and sumptuGry laws
must net be tolerated" Now, r
such laws sumptuaryP How does a
law that, prohibits the manufac-
ture and sale Of a poison restrain a
man from spending just as much
money as he wants to? As a sump-
tuary law Is one that says that the
people subject to it shall only sperd
80 much tor food, clothing, and
other necessary expenses, It strikes
us as though the dram-shop system,
rather than the Prohibition priucI
pie, is founded IN the sumptuaRy
idea, and that 1t has u the full
length of the sumptuary tether: 1t
says to the poor unfortunates bound
down by it, you shall spend nothing
for food and clothing for yourself
and family, you shall dress in the
worn out clothes of those charitab'y
inclined and shall feed on the
crumbs that fall from the tables of
those not under my dominion.
Will not the Herald raise another
platform, declaring it won't support
q person in the habit of using in
t~oxicatlng liquor as a beverage fer
