even honest dealers into recognition
OF their power by making trouble for
them. Thus they came finally to
be recognized by all the distillers as the
leaders of the ring, who distributed the
money among the store keepers, gaug-
ers and other officials, and in turn af-
forded them political protection. The
strangest thing is that, while Rehm is
very rich, Hesing is said to be very
poor; but he is said to have been unfor-
tunate in business, and the last canvass,
when he ran for county treasurer and
was defeated, Is said to have cost him

The Administration and the Monroe
Doctrine.

Our dispatch from Vienna, published
some days since, made the country ac.
quainted with the strange circumstances
that the President had gone all the way
to st. Petersburg to endeavor to drum
up moral support for his Cuban policy.
which had proved distasteful to the
American people, because, deeply srs-
Picio9s Of his intentions, the people be-
lieved that the policy was adopted as a
mere cover for the attempt to over
come the repugnance to third
term. We pointed out at the time
that this request for moral
support was as repugnant to our
traditional policy us the third term it,
self; that the fathers and founders OF
this Republic not only did not send
round q platter to European capitals for
diplomatic and political cold victuals,
but they maintained that the safety Of
this Government lay in the total inde-
pendence OF its policy, its complete al
stention from all European disputes.
and its complete exclusion Of European
Powers from any part in it's decisions
on American topics. An answer to
these structures Is now put forth In the
Government organ. 1t Is said that
the Government did not regularly send
a Cuban circular to the several Pow
ers, but that it called their attention to
the part Of the message that relates to
Cuba; and that there is nothing In tho
spirit Of the Monroe doctrine which
makes such course improper. As to
the matter OF fact, il the President in
serts in his message the parts Of a cir
cular intended for foreign contempla-
ton and then diplomatically requests
several foreign governments to give
him their opinion on those parts Of his
message, how is this essentially differ
ent from the allegations OF our Vienna
dispatch? As to the Monroe doctrine,
ernments for policy which we pro-
pose, do we not thereby admit that they
have such right to disapprove as we
would be in honor bound to notice and
is not this an abandonment Of the es-
sential point Of the Monroe doctrine?

Evolution and the Bible.

A popularity of the discussion which
the more modern theories Of science
have evoked, is that many of the
champions on both sides take it for
granted that there Is necessary con-
fiict between the new doctrines and
those Of the Bible. The Tribune has
never favored this notion. There is on
both sides small but constantly in
creasing number Of close thinkers,
accept theories of evolution, but in
either case do not regard them as Of
necessity contrary to the Scriptures. A
letter from Prof. Taylor Lewis OF Union
College, which we publish to-day, pre-
sents this view Of the subject.
The chief objection which men OF O
religious turn Of thought find in theories
of evolution is that these relegate the
Creator to q position-so far as the
present is concerned-outside the
Universe. The error, Prof. Lewis thinks,
is in this assumption. 1t makes the
whole process by which creation has
been unfolded-by which the atoms Of
an original 'nebula have taken shape
and character, perhaps even vitality and
consciousness and free villa mere
mechanical sequence, The first atoms
Of matter, it is said, were endowed
with the qualities and forces which
secured their development. There
is no need, as Prof. Lewis clearly
points out, for such an assump-
ton, even il the evolution Of matter
to its present forms did take place
along the paths which men Of science
think they have traced out. Grant the
evolution, the development; 1t is still a
creation not only supervised but actually
carried out, step by step, by u Divine
Creator. The mistake OF supposing, that
because the law of creation may have
been discovered 1t should follow that the
law is the creator, Is justly spoken Of by
DR.. Lewis as shameful ignorance. y
The accordance of the view which he
offers with the statements OF the Bible
Is abundantly fortified in the letter by
references to that volume. He has
added notably to the list of arguments
which prove that religion has nothing
to fear from the real advances O
science; the only danger being thai
needless assumptions may be accepted
in place OF truth.-N Y. Tribune. z

Work for the Legislature.

It is not probable that the Legislature
can enact all the good and repeal all the
bad laws during its ensuing session but
it can do much to relieve the people OF
the many grievances they have so long
suffered during the scramble Of its re-
creant servants over the spoils wrung
from q miserable, hard-pressed and
struggling, patient people, II our Repre-
sentatives have occupied the leisure
moments OF the vacation in preparing
such acts as should have suggested
themselves, and they will have In view
their duty to their constituents more
than their own private ends. We hope
they will address themselves to the
business for which the people sent them
to the Capitol, during this session, in
stead Of wrangling over matters OF no
interest to the people.
There Is one matter which we hope
will receive the attention Of some one,
and that law will be. enacted on the
subject; and that is, that Of providing
for the punishment OF persons for minor
offenses without confining them for
months in our parish jails, at the ex-
pense Of the people and to their own
physical injury. Let them be put to
work at something by which they can
earn their board. They would prefer
it, it would be more humane, and would
save heavy expense to every parish In
the State annually.
There are many other acts that should
suggest themselves to the minds OF our
representatives, but which we have not
time and space to mention at present.
We learn from the Madison Journal
that VIM. Murrell from that parish:

COurt.ROOm COurtship.

Rosa Metz was q good girl for all
work. She had supported her mother
and little brother and sister at Milwaus
kee since the death Of her father three
years ago. She served and thrived.
The other day she had Conrad Rein
into court carrying a three-weeks-old
baby. She said the baby was hers and
Conrad's, and she wanted the court to
fix proper sum for Conrad to pay for
the support Of the child. Conrad was
there ard told the judge he wanted to
marry Rosa, and was able to support
both her and her child and others that
might come. Rosa objected to such a
settlement OF her case on the ground
that she did not love Conrad as q wife
ought to love her husband, and she did
not believe in a woman's giving her
hand without heart in it. She asked
the Judge to please fix it up some other
way. Conrad went to her and talked
sweetly, and they were a good-looking
couple as they stood in court with only
the difference Of little child between
them. They were the admiration OF the
legal lookers-on, and the scene OF
counting in the court room was perfect
ly delicious. To all his promises to be
good to her and their child, she smil-
ingly shook her head, and still appealed
to the Judge to Tx IL up some Otner way.
She was young and strong, and could
ork to support her mother and BROTH
er and sister, but she thought in all
Justice that Conrad ought to be put un-
der legal obligations to provide for tho
child. The Judge told her that Conrad
stood willing to enter into the strongest
and holiest obligations to do his duty
as a husband and father, and he
thought in all reason she should con-
sent to marry him. He was we'll off,
and a good, good-looking fellow, and
she out to jump at such a chance. AL
most any other girl in Milwaukee
would marry him, and think herself
lucky. This seemed to give Rosa an
idea, and feeling she did not have be-
fore, and she, protesting, "She would
ne'er consent, consented" The couple
were neatly married in that courtroom.
Conrad called carriage. and the three
drove gaily away in search OF home
and happiness.

BERLIN, Jan. IA German, under the
signature of Herr H." gives in the
Dresden NachricAten, some facts in
reference TO Thomas, whose name Is
notorious in connection with the dyna-
mite explosion. He states that Thomas
was born in 1888 or 18i0, In the town OF
Bochoit, We5tphalia. When two
wears old his father went to America
and became carriage builder In
BROOKLYN. Herr X. became acquainted
with Thomas In 1852 at Noelle's s
Commercial School at Osnahruck. In
the summer of 1875 Herr X: met, acci-
dentally. gentleman at Kneist's Bier
Halle. Dresden, who spoke German,
who proved to be Thomas, and who it
was fully shown, had been born and ed
ncated In Germany. Thomas had spent
from from 1867 to 1875, the last eight years,
in Germany. Capt. Bruchtenstein told
me to-day that Thomas shipped last
wear on the steamer Rhein, from Bre-.
men to New York, box that he said
contained greenbacks, and which he
wished to insure. The officers OF the
steamer said insurance was unnecessa-
nv. and they would place it in the mail
room. Thomas followed in the Celtic.
The inference is that similar plot was
contemplated for the Rhein.

and front Of the offence with which

at the same time the distilleries OF Chi-

up the gaugers and storekeepers Tor the

should connive at their frauds, ana
