Prohibition in Pennsylvania.

From the Philadelphia Press we copy
below all that il gives of the decision OF
the Supreme Court of that State on the
constitntionalitv of what is called the
"Local Option Law, +" to restrain the
retail traffic in intoxicating liquors.
The Judges divided on the question but
the majority sustained the law. Here
is the report as it appeared in the Press
Yesterday morning Judge Agnew de-
livered the obinion cf the majority Of
the Court in the Local Option cases.
The opinion was very long, but the fol.
lowing is the substantial statement Of
the points in the decision:
The Judge said it was an admitted
cardinal principle of government that
the Legislature, which is the agent of
the people, cannot delegate its legisla-
tive power to any other person. But
what did the Legislature in this instanc-
do? 1t passed law prohibiting The
sale of intoxicating liquors in the Twen-
ty-second ward, and provides penalties
for the breach of itsrequirements. Thus
it was perfect law when it left the
Governors hanls; the vote of the people
did not max he law. did not give force
to any prohibition, did not create a pen
atty, but simply an opinion upon the
law. their sentiments and wishes in re-
gard to it.
Such vote might be useful in ascer-
tanning the utility or adv stability of a
particular law and when the Legislature
simply calls to its aid the vote OF the
people to ascertain their views, it acts
strictly within its proper sphere. The case
of the Con monweat.h VS.. Parker did
not decide this question, for there the
law was imperfect, in that it was not
mandatory until after the popular deci-
sion, hut the present law was perfect
when it left the Legislatures hands.
The law did not spring from the vote,
but the vote sprans from the law. To
say tina. a law resting upon afuture con-
tincency is invalid would be to rob the
Legislature of the power to act wisely
and well for the hest intrests of the peo-
pie. Though the Legislature cannot
delegate the power to make law, ye1
it can make law and delegate the pow
er to ascertain some particular pom
upon which the action of the law itsei
is to depend. The mayor and Councils
have delegated to them the power tt
make laws and ordidances; but this was
simply the power TO determine what Is
best for the the city. and the character
of the city was the law which breathet
life and force into the result of their de
liberations. The decisions in this State
since the Parker VS.. the Commonwealth
ruled this case. After citing numerous
authorities the case closed by affirming
the iudg. ment of the Court below.

IT,. G. are the initials of a person
who seems to be made up of COM
pound of inelastic piety and a pas
sion for splitting the microscopica'
hairs which indicate the uncertain
lines where synonyms exhibit the
oretical distinction verging upon an
actual difference. and who appears in
yesterdays Enterprise as an amateur
critic of what has been said in the
APPEAL relative to the subject mat
ter of a Sunday law. This Jealous
dissector of the individual parts OF
speech is good enough to hint at an
incongruity between the meaning OF
the words recreation and rest, and
gives hint to the effect that in his
opinion the editor of this paper has
been wading out of his depth in at
tempting to deal with so severe and
solemn q thing as Sunday law.
Also doth L. J. G. intimate that in
his opinion Sunday is not hoil-
day. In one of these half express
sed conclusions this critical person
is quite correct have no decided
right to an opinion on matters po-
emical; but we will bet him, in a
moral way, enough to make it inter-
| esting, that the day which is mis-
called the Sabbath and for the iazier
observance of which he seems to want
a law enacted, Is holiday, as much
as the Fourth of July or Spring
Muster. Beyond this we desire to
have but little of unequivocal opin'
ion; and we are content to leave L
IJ. C. to the cudgels of Brother Allen
who is inclined to inject a weekly
modicum of religious talk into the
APPEAL and through its fractionally
sacred columns into the understand
| ing of L. J. C. and the miracle o
spared and tolerated depravity who
keeps up the profane and worldly
department of the Enterprise.

Segregate the public schools from

This is what everybody. pretty much
advises concerning popular educa

be general; certainly it should not

Methodism. Catholicism, Episcopa-
lianism or Mormonism-nor should
the Bible any more than the Talmud
or the Koran be forced into the
school room. But we have some
doubts about compelling" the edu-
cation Of any. children. You may
lead q horse to the trough, but you
can't make him drink; and you can
force child to attend school when You
can't inject education into him with

can be taught will go into some sort

to attempt a compulsory attendance.

These can be fed to safety at the

cows COMING N.

The cows that are to come in this month
heed extra care and attention. Thev are
already heavy, and require extra rstions
to maintain good condition, with strength
to bear the tax upon the system Incident
to calving and the change of the uterus to
the udder. Cows often lose condition and
run down at this season, before the farmer
is aware of it. What is lost cannot be re-
gained without undue forcing, and the
healthy tone and vigor of the system 80
necessary to successful season at the
dairy cannot be restored after the COW
comes in. 4
The watchful eye of the owner at this
time is the best guarantee of; success.
Nothing can take the place of good care.
II the udder becomes very full and inflam-
ed 1t should be bathed with warm water,
rubbed and manipulated thoroughly, wip.
ed dry and the milk drawn. Timely care
IN this respect often saves garget and loss.
Heating food, like corn meal, should be
avoided. A daily mess Of oatmeal and
wheat bran will be useful, and liberal
ration OF roots will keep the system in
healthy state. As the the time for cslving
approaches the COW should be turned loose
in box, where there Is no chance Tor her
to inJure herself or the calf. and be well
supplied with bedding A little iudicious

most cases as a saving of the strength OF
the COW. After ealving a relaxing but
nourishing diet is indispensable, and
chill must be avoided The water should
be warmed. If milk fever sets Id the best
remedy is timely bleeding. 1t must not
be delayed, however, or the case will be
