FINAL BLOW TO LOCAL OPTION.

FINAL BLOW TO LOCAL OPTION.
TIE ASSEMBLY REFUSES 10 RROoNHDER Ts VOTE
OF TUEsDAY-OPINIONs OF TEMPERANCE MEN
THEIR PLANS FOR THE NEXT ELECTION.
IYRos A REGULAR CORRESPONDENT OF THE TRIBUNE
ALBANY, May 2S.-An attempt was made TO
viye the question OF local option in the Assembly
this morning, on motion by Mr.. Hustled to recon-
slider the vote by which the amended Local Option
bill was lost yesterday In support of his motion he
said that the temperance people of this State had
not received at the hands of the Assembly the legs
lation which they had q right to expect and
to demand. The Republican party, as represented
in the Legislature, had not sustained the
platform on which ID went before the people. Mr..
Balts Of Eric hoped the motion to reconsider would
not prevail The temperance people, he thought,
had had fair show in this Legslature-a better
show than their opponents They had had their
lobby on the floor of the Assembly day after
day, and had passed their bin which was vetoed by
the Governor. He denied that the Republican
platform required any such fanatica Legislation
was sought for by the extreme temperance men. No
party ought to make promises of such legislation,
and then it would not be under the necessity of be-
traying them.
Mr.. Tefft of Washington said that the Republican
party was in favor of morality and right but he de-
MED that ID was the duty of the Republicans of this
House to impose on the people any such fraud as
this new Local Option bill. The enactment of this
law would defeat the object it proposed TO have in
view, Mr. Worth of Brooklyn also denied that the
bill was in the interest of temperance. This was
the only country in the world he said that ever at
tempted to egislate upon personal habits, and such
legislation had uniformly proved unsuccessful
The previous question was then called for and
ordered On the call of the Yeas and Nays, both
sides rallied all the votes they could muster. and the
result showed 5S votes for reconsideration and ~
against 1t. The motion was declared lost for want
of constitutional vote, and the question of local
option finally set at rest for this year. 20 far as
the Legislature is concerned
Members who are well informed az to the plans of
the.temperance people for the future say that the
question of local option other legislation against
intemperance will assume more prominent part IN
politics at the next Fall election than it has ever
done before They will run q State ticket of their
own, which will be made up Of candidates selected,
without reference to general politics, from the nom-
inees of both Of the great parties, 80 far as they
shall be able to find such nominees entertaining
their views on the temperance question. Smith M.
Weed of Clinton has already been designated by
general consent as their candidate for Attorney
General and he is very likely to get the Democratic
and Liberal Republican nominations also.
