Mr.. Erastus Brooks has dared to do what
probably no New-York Assemblyman, with
any desire to remain in public life, would
have had courage for. He has introduced
resolution requesting the Committee on Cities
to consider the ACCESSIBILITY Of substituting for
the existing Excise law what Is known as the
Moffett law of Virginia; or in other words,
that every glass of alcoholic liquor consumed
in bar-room shall pay Dig cents into the
city treasury, and each glass of ale half a
cent, and that the famous bell-punch
shall ring in this new device OF
municipal reform. Mr.. Brooks seems, from
the language of his resolution, to be in favor
of this plan of raising handsome sum OF
money annually to and in meeting the ex-
penses of the city and reducing the debt /;
and where so prominent a Democrat leads In
opposition to the liquor-dealers' interests,
Republican Legislature which has given liquor
dealers no quarter could easily follow. Should
this scheme be adopted, New-YOrk would
probably be simply anticipating, through its
Board of Assistant Aldermen at Albany, the
action of other cities like Chicago and New
Orleans, where tho same idea has been
agitated and received with no little approba-
ton.

New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1878-03-26

The advocates of initiation got two repuns
in the House yesterday, for the American
Congress has come to such pass that
failure to get two-thirds vote for some
felonious attempt on the National credit Is
looked upon as a triumph of honest finance
Mr.. Springer's motion to suspend the rules,
and pass free coinage and silver certinea!e
bill, received q majority of only 80 votes IN
a reasonably full House; and Mr. Goodes
motion for suspension in order to pass
bill staying for five years the operation OF the
Sinking Fund Act, which provides for the
gradual extinction of the public debt, received
a majority of only II votes. Both motions
failed for lack of two-thirds vote. AND
this is the sort of hard-money and specie-pay-
ment victories we are glad to get in the pres
ent House.

A careful summary, on another page, OF the
printed correspondence with reference TO the
selection of the third member of the Halifax
Tribunal, shows with what persistency the
British Government sought the appointment
of NJ. Defosse from the outset. That part OF
one of Mr.. Fishs letters is given in full in which
he expresses his establishment that the name OF
the Belgian Minister should be proposed at
all, after Lord Ripon's express disclaimer that
any representative of Belgium would be
named. Mr.. Fish did not dream then appar-
emily that NJ Delfosse's name would turn up
at last in the hand of the Austrian Minister
at London. All this does not affect the legal
ity of the Halifax award, but it will affect
American opinion of the way in which it was
obtained.
