The Massachusetts, Liquor Law is like Mr.. Micaw-
ber-always in difficulties. Some of these are
trihng but it has now encountered one which
promises to be serious. The case is this: Christie
pher X. Miller keeps a house of refreshment in Dor
chester District, Boston. Last week all the lager
whisky and the like upon his premises was ruth
essly seized and carried away and he was personally
complained of for selling the But Christopher
was up TO trick or two for he proved IN court
that he was simply janitor and treasurer of the
Mount Bowdoin Club that the liquor seized be-
longed to the Club and was bought by Miller at
their order and with their money; that he had a
salary for his trouble and for the use of his house
and blliard-table and that he distributed the Club
liquor to the members as they required it, according
to their share but never gave sold tany to non
members and never took money from the members
themselves. There is already decision of the
Supreme Court that bona tide club is not amenable
to the law and Judge Churchill held that the case
of Miller came within the provisions of this decision
SO the cantor and treasurer" was discharged. The
seized liquor must be restored and there seems to
be no reason why Clubs should not be organized
in every bar-room in the Commonwealth. Here and
there of course their colorado character might be
proved by the government; but in the majority of
cases the prosecution could not be sustained.

managers will do what they can to prevent d
full expression of the popular desire Tor re-

undertaken to provide ballots in this CITY,
there is nobody to do similar work for the

The Council Of Political Reform have pub
lished q list of candidates whom they recon-
mend unreservedIy TO electors AZ persons
worthy of their votes and confidence. Most
of their recommendations arc iudiciOus But
If the work of the Council is to result in any
good, they must make no mistakes If they
know nothing in favor of candidate they
should not recommend him. il they know
nothing Of two opposing candidates they should
recommend neither, but leave the knowledge
or ignorance of the voter in liberty. But what
is of still greater Importance. they should not,
for any imaginable motive, recommend a
candidate against whom well founded susp-
cions exist. One such recommendation destroys
the whole effect of all the others. There are
enough men of good character TO fill all the
offices. 1t is no part of the duties of
the Reform Council to rehabilitate frail
regulations. If man has been so unfOr-
tunate as to lose his character, he would do
much better to reform his life than to get
nOmina ted to Office and ask these gentlemen
to whitewash him. We think the Reform
Council should have deliberated long time
before they gave certificate of fitness to
Charles ). Spencer. file is certainly not the
sort of person they would choose to represent
them in Albany. 1t is stated that they were
induced to take this action through the influ-
ence of Mr.. Dexter A. Hawkins. 1t ia not
surprising that this eminent lobbyist should
desire to see as many as possible of his own
kind at the Capitol. But we have not bith-
erto credited him with that versatility of gifts
which should make him equally worth hiring
IN affect LEGISLATION in Albany and the delibpr-
atoms of refOrmers in New-York.

An escape from jail is dficult or easy according to
circumstances. At Keene, N. H., we shouldn't say
that the stronghold of justice would be formidable
to a Baron Trenck. Patrick Murphy and James
Barry, confined therein, escaped last week. And
how do you think they did itf Why. by reaching
through the crate and simply unlocking the door,
the key having been kindly left in the lock by the
taller, who was whtewashing the prisoners quar-
tiers. He will now need little whitewashing
himself.

One Of the things you read of recently occurred in
Wilmington, Del. A man was detected hurrying
away from butchers stall with a steak which be
had stolen under his coat. A policeman followed
him to his home, and peeping through the window
saw him give the steak to his children, who de-
voured it raw. Upon report Of this being made to
the butcher, his bosom so glowed with benevolent
sympathy. that instead OF prosecuting, he sent the
starving family large basket of meat aud little
cash TO buy wood to cook it.

IL should not be taken for granted that
Memphis will not need money, though the
yellow fever is abating materially. Cash is
needed to provide. for the protection and
Dourishment of the helpless ones who have
been orphaned by the pestilence. For this
purpose it is proposed to collect money at
the polling places throughout the State to-
morrow. The necessity for this contribution
Is pressing; and a generous gift from our
people now would be right worthily used.

II is doing no injustice to the other merto-
rious and capable candidates for the Supreme
COurt bench, for us to urge all voters who
desire TO raise the character Of our judiciary
to cast their ballots for Judge Fancher The
recent persistent criticism of the press has had
some effect, at last, and for the first time IN
many years the names presented for judicial
positions are almost without exception such
as all Igood citizens can freely vote for We
have only the embarrassment of choice in
selecting two names out of the four which are
borne on the ballots for the Supreme Court Judge
ships But there are special reasons why Judge
Fancher ought to be elected. In the first
place, he is second to none of his competitors
in ability, integrity and learning. He pos
sesses in a higher degree than any of them
that popular confidence which can only come
through an able administration of the office
for which he is candidate. But what most
especially recommends him to the suifrages OF
those who are interested in Judiciary reform,
is that his election would be i'll no sense
partisan triumph. lie is a judge and not a
politician. He was appointed to the Bench,
purely on account of his rank as jurist, by
n Governor who was opposed to him i'll poll
tics, and his conduct since his appointment
has been such as to Justify fully the choice of
Governor Hoffman. If we could abolish the
elective Judiciary might hope for frequent
APPOINTMENTS of this character, but under our
present regime the privilege of voting for such
q candidate is naturally 50 rare that no one
should neglect it.

The suicidal letter of the Comte dc Cham
bord has simply put an end to his chances,
but has not taught any wisdom to the reac-
tonists of the Right. They are as bitterly
hostile as ever TO the definite establishment
of the Republic, and will try to prevent the
legitimate consequence of their recent blum
ders by investing Marshal MacMahon with
dctatorial powers. In this scheme the Gov
eminent will be with them, and there is more
probability that this scheme will succeed than
that the Chambord conspiracy could be
brought to a successful termination.

The Choctaws, Indians though they are,
seem to have a more bitter reluctance to en-
fIanchising ex-slaves than most white people.
Il is well known that Congress authorized
bargain which gave 100000 to the tribe for
{" the leased lands" as they are called, on con-
dition that the ChOctaws make citizens of their
former slaves and endOw each with forty acres
of land. This bargain was concluded seven
years ago; but the Choctaws, on one pretext
or another, have put off the fulfi'lment of their
part of the contract; and their Legislative
Council has just adjourned after refusing to
perform this act of common justice. There are
about three thousand negroes in the Choctaw
Nation; and Congress, probably. will not fail
to hear and attend at once TO their complaints.

THERE is tide in the affairs of cities as
well as of men which, eff TAX en- atthe flood,
leads on to fortune" Opportunities pre-.
sent themselves, which if taken advan-
tage of and judiclously improved, fix the
destiny of communities for ages, and per-
haps forever. Cities do not grow up by q
natural process like the trees of the forest,
or like the grass of the field, but are built
up and brought into prominence through
the exertions of their inhabitants. If the
inhabitants are indolent and careless, the
business of city will soon show it. With
out competition the defects of commune
may be concealed from the world and at
tain to sort of Importance almost with
cut an effort. This has been the case with
Knoxville. Situated in the centre
of q country rich in soil and
minerals we have controlled trade
and have grown slowly but steadily.
But In the future of Knoxville maintains
her position among Southern cities, it
must be through the zeal, energy and pub
lie spirit of her people. New railroad lines
open up new channels of commerce and
competition. To meet such competition we
must make up by hard work-vigorous and
constant action what we lack of advantages
which sister cities enjoy. This zeal and
energy must be constant, steady. Spas
modic liberality never avails much. Capt.
talists, who are selfish, and don't
care for the success of the community
while they themselves have plenty, will
play the game of misers and lock up their
capital where it benefits no one but them
selves, but wide-awake, public-spirited
men, will take the contrary course. We
throw out these thoughts trusting
that our people may be set to thinking.
1t is just as unreasonable to expect that
Knoxville can keep pace with other cities
under the policy which has prevailed in
the past, as to look for thrift and enter
prise in State which discards railroads,
steamboats, and telegraph wires.
