War on the New York Liquor
Traffic.

Howard Crosby, of New York, is at the
head Of new Organization known as the
"Society. for the Prevention of Crime"
which recognizing intemperance as the
great cause Of criminal acts. proposes to
give most of its attention to the liquor
traffic. DR.. Crosby has been an opponent
of prohibition, and has subjected himself
to much criticism because of his views in
relation to the use OF Intoxicating drinks,
but he is now engaged in attempts to pre-
vent liquor selling in New York city, with
a zeal that will win for him the admira-
ton Of the most pronounced advocates OF
prohibitory laws. The New York courts
have given a decision under which only
innholders and apothecaries can have the
legal right to sell any liquor, except ale
and beer, in that State. and the purpose
Of this society Is to create public senti-
ment in opposition to the liquor traffic,
which will make the officials do their duty
and enforce the law. DR.. Crosby is call
ing to his assistance many strong men
who have not heretofore made themselves
prominent by their advocacy of temper
ance, and he is inspiring some of them
with the zeal he Is himself manifcsting.
At meeting held in Dr. Hepworth's
church on Monday evening, he spoke of
the liquor as rascal who are
''robbing poor people. debauching the
young and filling our prisons, in defiance
Of the plain letter and spirit Of the stat
ute.' and he declared 1t the purpose oil
the society TO array men Of all classes,
without regard to their religious or politi
cal creeds. in opposition to the dram
shops. He, and those who are working
with him, are confident OF success 10 theil
efforts toastop the sale Of liquors, although
they now as heretofore disclaim all sym.
patty with the prohibitionists. Similar
societies will be organized in Brooklyn
and 10 Jersey City. 10 the expectation thai
the authorities will be made vigilant and
faithful By their influence. On Tuesday
Representatives of the New York society
had an interview with the police commits
sloners, who declared their readiness to
order the police TO do their duty, but they
were confident that the judges of the
courts would not assist 10 the punishment
Of offenders. and that the efforts Of the
new organisation would be OF no avail.
The representatives Of the society bad an

The Times newspaper worked off Sun
day extra on the announcement in head
lines that Tilden had been inaugurated as
President of the United States. This fact
explains why, in the evening edition of yes
terday, the following appeared:
Mr.. Tilden was not sworn in yesterday in
New York.
One facetious Individual who had read
the Times extra, seeking to find in the text
a justification of the bold headlines, com
planned that the dispatch was uncOnstitu,
tional-that it did not express its object in
its title.
The statement created considerable dis
cussiOn among the Democratic statesmen
playing the role of Micawber, however, il
being suggested that it was proper to apply
to Tilden right away for the recognition oi
Nichols and quit bothering the Radical
President. These prudent counselors ad
vIsed that it might be better to wait until
Tllden was recognized, and there the matter
seemed to rest until the illusion was dissi
pated in the two lines above quoted,

There was little breeze in the meeting
of Democratic Representatives over the
Louisiana Lottery matter. Mr.. Fitzpatrick
wanted the charter of the company re-
pesled, and had introduced a bill to that
effect. The Committee on Judiciary, to
whom it was referred, asked for further
time. Fitzpatrick objected to allowing
them longer time than Wednesday, and
made motion accordingly. Mr.. jonas,
chairman of the committee, stated that the
matter was one Of great Importance, and
that it required great and weighty consid-
GRAFTON. He assured the House that the
committee would make a report as early as
possible. He objected to the motion fxin
a special time in which the committee
should make a report.
Mr.. Fitzpatrick responded hotly, and
seemed to reflect upon the good intentions
of the committee. His motion was put,
however, and tabled, by vote of 81 to IL
and the committee allowed indefinite time
in which to report.
A joint ballot was had for Senator. Cain
Sartain nominated General John Young of
Claiborne, who declined. Senator Kelly
nominated Senator Wheeler, who did not
decline. James c. EAgan was withdrawn.

The Needs of rhn snuth.

leading Democratic journal of New
Orleans, alluding to what it terms "new-
born zeal of both parties for Southern
rights" says that Louisiana has much TO
ask and to expect, Among the wants of
New Orleans and the Mississippi valley are
stated lines of steamers between New Or
leans and Brazil, Mexico and Central
America, navy yard and government
dock at that city, the Texas Pacific rail-
road and branches, and the construction
of permanent levees. Odd enough, the
same journal adds that Louisiana has
need OF continued protection to her sugar
and rice planters by keeping up the tariff
on foreign sugar and rice" These are strange
claims TO be presented feOm that quar-
ter, but the Republican platform, which Ia
designed to advance the welfare of the
whole republic without respect 10 sectional
lines, requires that they shall be carefully
and justly considered. The Democrats
party, during its supremacy, fed the South
on Improbable abstraetiOns and helped to
fasten on her an expensive and dangerous
labor system. The Republican party now
asks the South to move forward aud plaee
herself in perfect alignment with the party
which has made the Northern and Western
States pOpulous and prosperous. There Is
nothing unreasonable or unfair in asking
the South to walk in the same path which
the North has travelled 30 advan tageOusiv.
A careful and intelligent study Of the ma
terial advancement Of Louisiana and ths
adjacent States will lead directly to Repub-'
licanism. 1t is q fact which every political
student has not failed TO note that proaner-
Gus lecal governments and social order

telligent majority has fully estsolished Re-

diste attaches of the Presidents ofioe, and
your correspondent
In view of the heated controversy which
characterized the declaration Of the eleo-
ton OF Governor Hayes to the Presidency,
aud the fact of the customary day of in.
auguration falling on the Sabbath, the
President elect deemed it advisable to hold
conference with Senators TO ascertain
whether it would be prudent to deIav Che
taking OF the oath of Office until March S.
the day OF inauguration, or to take the oath
at an earlier moment, independent of the
formal ceremonies of his induction into
cthoe: After bis very agreeable Wait
to the President, with those eooom-
p@nying him, he drove to the Capt.
.nl' and was shown to the room of the
Vice President. Vice President Ferry. who
was in the chair. was notified Of the Dree-
ence OF the President elect, and, inviting a
SENATOR to preside in his stead, he im1n edi-
stely lolned the President elect They hsd
orlet conversation on the subject OF tax
ing the oath of office, and it was suggeeteu.
that IN view of the circumstances il would
oe well to do so at time preceding the ex-
piration OF the present administration. The
PRESIDENT elect said that he would desig-
nate time, which would be tomorrow or
PROBABLY on the Sabbath, the oath TO be
administered, as is customary, by the Chief
Justice of the Supreme Court, and in the
Senate Chamber.
There was some conversation on the
question of the oath of Ofice being admin
istered on the Sabbath. The dsy tor the
inauguration of a President has occurred
on Sunday but twice since the adoption of
the constitution, which were the inaueura-
tons OF Monroe and Taylor. In both of
these INSTANCES the administration of the
oath OF office and inaugural ceremonies
TOOK place on the fifth of March. Accented
autnOrltes state that for the purposes in
view, sunday is no more than anv other
day, and that the constitution in speaking
OF the presidential term, saws: ''From
and after March t." and therefore it is de-
clded that the fourth of March must be the
calender day for the administration of the
oath. NO matter what day of the week it
may fall upon. In 1905, March came upon
sunday; the Senate adjourned on Saturday,
msten . ana met the next day. The entry
in the journal is March 3, and Jefferson
signed the bills on that day.
The general practice has beer, however.
not TO perform any legislative acts on Sab
bath. Ia regard to the necessity of admin
istering the oath in public, upon the second
Inauguration of Washington, this question
was matter of Cabinet discussion. Ii was
decided then to administer the oath of office
in public.
In the case of President Monroe, March A
coming on Sunday, the Senate were notified
that he would be sworn in on that day.
In the care of Tay lOr, the oath was ad.
ministered on the fifth.
Taking all precedents into consideration,
it was decided that the administration OF
the oath on Sunday would not invalidate it,
and that the inaugural ceremonies might
follow it next day.
