The temperance people are not SO
jubilant as they were two weeks ago
when our city fathers resolved that they
would grant no license. At the meeting
Of the Council last Monday night it was
decided by that body that the law gov.
erning cities of the third class did not
require a petition to be signed by ma
jority of the people over twenty-one
years of age before they could grant
license for the sale of intoxicating
liquors, and they voted to grant license
to VIM. Kuhne to keep "Beer Hall for
the purpose of retailing beer, cigars,
wines, liquors, etc." on condition that
he give an acceptable bond for two
thousand dollars that he will keep an
orderly house. That it is against the
will of a majority of the citizens of our
town to grant license there can be no
doubt; but whether the matter is regu-
lated by the Statutes or left to the dis
cretion of the Council appears to be a
question for the Courts to decide. 1t is
question of interest to the citizens of
cities of the third class as to whether or
no there is any law on this subject, and
we hope that the anti-license people here
or elsewhere will get decision from the
Courts before the next session of the
Legislature. 1t we have have no law on
the subject perhaps we could get one.
We don't believe that it is right under
any circumstances to license an evil, but
if licenses are to be granted it should be
subject to the will of the majority of the
people.

of grave concern to the people upon

"A number of examinations of gr ass
hoppers under magnifying glasses have
been made by some of our citizens this
week, and it is undoubtedly true that
many of them are infected with aspecies
of worm which may in some instances
kill them; but the most hopeful feature
is that within the past few days many of
them have shed their wing-caps and ap-
peared with full developed wings. Un-
doubtedly the time of their departure is

THEY CALL THEM DELIS4rESTs.-The
COunci! yesterday entertained a resolution
70 ;nstrUc: the City Attorney to prosecute
several persons who are declared to be de.
linquen:s to the city. Those persons are or
have been employed by this corporation.
and By chance obtained possession Of money
which. in due course Of business, should
have gone into the treasury, but as they
could no. obtain payment tor their labor,
retained such cash as they had collected.
holding j. az security for the sums they
claimed as due them for services rendered.
!: is generally supposed that corporations
are quite as liable as individuals, and if the
threatened parties are prosecuted it is likely
that they will put in that plea. As an in.
stance: a gentleman has been employed BY
she city for many months. and few days
ago he wished TO pay taxes on his small
house. lie rendered in payment a time
certificate which had been given him by the
department in which he was employed. bu:
the Administrator Of Finance repuiiated
che paper. and would not acknowledge that
j. was worth a dime. This placed the EN-.
pioye in box, out Of which he could only
craw! by selling bis certificate for less than
halt its value to a money broker, who will
eventually pay it in for its full face. That
sufferer thinks that if he had been with an
individual he would not have been turned
CT 60 short. He entertains the opinion tina,
II q corporation may yepudiate in such 3
manner lie last may tell his butcher and
baker TO call again and again. and if they
grumble he will refer them to the example
set By cur Democratic city fathers.

went into executive session." OF course it
did, and could not possibly do anything
else. There is not a single hook or crook
ior them to attempt to do anything but go
is considerable curiosity On the part OF
many good citizens to know whether this
illegal legislature is composed Of a House
or Senate. Of course the 9uerists do not
.expec. an answer.
