The UNITED STATES SUPREME CoURr. The
latest form given by Washington gossip to the
composition OF the Supreme Court is one that
WILL perhaps, be deemed satisfactory by the
country. BY this Justice Miller is to be made
Chief Justice, and Mr.. Williams, Of Oregon, will
be made Associate Justice in place of Miller,
while the Attorney Generalship thus vacated
by Williams will be given to Edwards Pierre
pont No objection seems to be raised to this
save that it gives two places in the Supreme
Court to the Pacific ooast--which is, OF course,
worthy Of no consideration

TIE news of the wholesale eyecu-
ton of the men captured on the
Virginius excites much feeling and
indignation. 1t was, if the accounts
are true, very cold-blooded affair,
and deserves the seyerest condcm-
nation. 1t seems to US, however,
that a part of this Indignation is
merited by the owners and crew OF
the Virginius themselves. The
Spanish Government is threatened
because one Of its war ships fired
upon a vessel carrying the American
flag. Shall Spanish man-of-war
dare to open her guns upon ship
flying the stars and stripes! The
idea is denounced as nonstrous.
Now, all this will do for sentiment
and buncombe, but it's very silly for
all. American flags don't cost much,
and because an Algerian pirate or
on African SLAYER floats one of them,
therefore shall the guns Of the
Christian world be silcnced (. Many
a blockade runner flew the british
flag, but that fact did not save them
from capture. The Virginius had
no right to carry the American hag
There is no pretense that she was
engaged in the business indicated by
her papers. Indeed, she has been
known for more than year to be
in the service Of the Cubans. Her
papers showed that she was dis
patched for Culon, and her "passen-
gers" were ostcnsibly laborers for q
new railway building there. They
were in fact, recruits for the insur-
gent army, and when captured,
readily admitted that they intended
to land upon the Cuban coast on the
Both nit. All this talk about the
American flag being insulted, there
fore is the merest clap-trap. AS a
Christian nation the United States
ows to herself and the rest of the
world to protest against this bar
barous cruelty, and if guiltless per
sons have been murdered, to demand
reparation but part of our indig-
nation should be turned toward
those who, in direct violation of our
laws, fit out expeditions of filibns-
tering character on our shores, and
to cloak their designs and shield
themselves, hoist our flag over a
vessel bound upon a warlike eXpe-
dition against nation with which
we are at pcace.--lnter Ocean.

THE Chicago Times affects to know
a great dead about Wisconsin poll
ties, but in reality it knows very
little indeed, rs witness the follow
ing silly paragraph that recently
appeared in its columns:
There Is not in Wisconsin All Organization
called the Democratic party" or "tle De
mocracy.' There are in Wisconsin 10 com
mlttces no officers, no organic agencies of
any kind, and no members of such an oigani,
2atipn There is no "Dcmocratic' party IN
uny sense. in Wisconsin. In the American
sense OF the word there are no Democrats
IN Wisconsin, 1t Is not true, therefore, that
Gov Taylor Isl "Dcmocmt.
The truth is that there is rs much
of an organization now, and was du-
ring the recent campaign, as the
party has had at any time during
the last ten years. There is and
always has been state central COM
mittee; there are and have been
local committees, and the whole
machinery of the party has been
kept in order, ready for service at
any time. If the Times knows no
more about the political situation in
this State than is indicated by the
above paragraph it should at once
take course of lessons thereon
or if it is trying to deceive its read
crs, those up this way will only
laugh Mt it for It's pains.

Tue Italian Parliament opened at
Rome on Saturday. The king, in
his speech, alluded to the preten-
sions of the Pope, and declared that
while the pope's liberty and re-
ligious sentiments would he respect
el, no Papal attacks ON the Italian
nation or its institutions would be
permitted. If the Pope should give
up his absurd idea of ever eXpeling
the Italian government from Rome.
he would save himself a great deal
of anxiety, would live Il good while
loagcr than he now promises to, and
be capable of serving tho cause of
the Church with more efficiency.

LTQUOR.DRINKING.

The amount of drunkenness which
statistics show to prevail IN our
larger cities goes far to account for
the marked increase Of poverty and
crime lately noticed in the country.
Dayton, Ohio, with a population OF
33 900 has 800 bar-rooms, and con-
sumes s2,0O0,000 worth Of whisky
annually. Milwaukee has $50 liq..
nor saloons, and d population OF
71,440. Chicago, with a population
of 29s,977, supports l,Soo bar
rooms and New York, with a pop
ulation of $4,000 sustain5 4,ooo.
That is to say, New York supports
one bar-room to every 235 nhablt-
ants; Chicago one to every llo
Milwaukee one to every 100; ana
DAYTON one to every 81. The
money value of the consumption OF
whisky, malt liquors, and tobacco
in Dayton, it is estimated, amounts
to five time that of bread
