MORNING APPEAL.

The Nebraska Legislature has immor-
talized itself by passing law which
provides, among other thing, that no
screens are to be permitted in saloons,
and that it shall be q misdemeanor for
one man to treat another. This is the
most shrewd attempt to squeich drunk
enness that has yet been made. There
can be little doubt that at least half the
drinking that is done in bar-rooms is in
response to the invitation, ..Come up
and take something" 1t is not only
that the bummers lie around the dram
shops, to intercept ali such invitations
from any source and promptly accept
them. The evil is, that the habit OF
treating, in this country at least, is al
most universal among persons vs.
drink liquor at ALL

The Queen OF England is mad at
the Baroness Burdett-Coutts because
she got married without the royal con-
sent. English society following the
Queen also tramples upon the poor
woman renoT5e!essly. During the past
twenty years the royal Baroness has
made her name a household word 81
two continents by her open handed
philanthropy. She has given G0yer
eigns where the tight-fsied Queen has
dispensed f;erthings. 1t is roughly e5-
timated that she has distributed among
the poor nearly three millions from her
private purse. Ali the rec0lIoctiOn8 OF
this gentle-heartcd woman are crushed
from the minds Of a Vulgar and badly
bred aristocracy because she chose to
marry at 20 without the Queens con-
sent.

They must be terribly pious down in
Georgia. The other day Hermann, the
prestidigitateur, with his wife and two
members Of the company, were playing
cards in the cars, and using pieces of
money as counters, which so ir.expres-
sibly shocked a clergyman in car that
he reported them to the Grand Jury of
Rockland county, Georgia, and they
were arrested at Atlanta. Evidently
the glory of the good old days of draw
poker has departed.

says If these things had been known

The Field, Letter 81 Co. DissO-
luton.

Chicago. 20. - In later editions o.
evening papers the dissolution notices
of the firm of Field, Letter & Co. are
published. together with the noti6cs
ton that the business would continue
under the management OF the other
members of the old firm of Field,
Letter & Co. These are Marshall
Field, Joseph N. Field, Henry Field.
Lorenzo G. Woodhouse, Henry j.
Willing and Harlow II. Higgln-
botham. The last five named are be-
lieyed to own one-third of the bust
ness; Marshall Field owns another
third, besides the third which Letter
disposes OF and which, it is under
stood, was taken chiefly by NJ. Field.
1t is said the price Was about 81, 800,
600. that the business amounted to
SIS 000,00O in 1873; $4,000, 900
in 1879; and S24. 500. 000 last year, CD
which the profits were about 10 per
ceLt. These figures are. however,
mostly COZ lectures, as neither patty
to the transaction will do more than
give the assurances of the completion
of the dissolution. Mr. Letter will
not engage in other commercial
enterprises, but will devote his time
to his extensive real estate and min
ing connections.

A Scene OfPOverty.

London, ga Hanturk CORES
pendent describes remarkable scene
at the meeting of the poor law
guardians. The day was bitter cold
aud about 200 famished persons stood
without the workhouse where the
guardians met. Among them we're
eighty stalwart, but hungry looking
lsberers, who loudly demanded work.
The guardians could give them none.
In the midst of the meeting word was
brought that laborers were forcing
their way into the buildidg. Business
was suspended and a dead silence
prevailed. Immediately aiterward
footsteps were heard ascending the
stsirs. The door was almost taken
from its hinges with the kicking and
pushing it received from the outside
Several voices were heard calling on
the guardians to open the door and
give them relief. The door wus
opened by Mr.. Cauliffe. One OF the
guardians was about to leave room
when he was thrown back and
informed that neither he nor
any guardian in the room should
leave until they had done something
for them. The passage on the stairs
was thronged with sullen, fsmished
looking men. A scene OF confusion
ensued which lasted several minutes.
In the background some poor fellows
we're weeping. After some time the
men got to understand that they
could find bread and tea in the hall,
and that their families would receive
outdoor relief for the week. The be
sieged guardians were, on this under
standing, allowed to go uninterrupted.

nunciations of the Murray outrage

since the thief. was perpetrated in
which the Post has not said some.
thing concerning the deed and its
author. The paper seems deter
mined to bring about M1rray's re-
moval from Office, and it ought to
succeed. Several of the articles from
the Post have been reproduced in the
HERALD, and We give below extracts
from the editorial columns Of that
journal on the 18th and 18Th instants:
We have yet to find q single republi-
can newspaper of any prominence or ac-
credited Influence sustaining Governor
Murray, of Utah, in his high-handed
counting out of Cannon, the delegate
elect. There is not one that dares to do
it-Eot a journal in the country, however
bitter and INSCRIPTIONS its partisanship
in ordinary cases, that can afford to COM
promise Its decency by endorsing so gross
q piece of turpitude Even the New York
Times, which goes to great lengths in the
service Of its party, is shocked and dis
gusted at Murray's disgraoeful perfoI m
ance.
Public condemnation of the outrage
perpetrated by Governor Murray, oil
Utah, has been prompt and emphatic. Not |
even the most hidebound OF partisan or
gans have attempted to apologize for, or |
defend his denial of q certificate to Can
non and his presentation of certified lie
TO Campbell.
MOrmOnism has been utterly ignored,
as II should have been, in the treatment
Of this matter, by the press. The uues-
lion OF polygamy has no more connec-
ton with Cannon's right to the certificate
OF election than the doctrine of election,
or Immersion, or the law of gravitation.
The only question presented 20 Governor
Murray, the only point he had any right
TO determine, was WHO has received q
majority # the votes"
There was no allegation of fraud, The
record showed that Cannon had received
thirteen votes to every vote cast for |
Campbell. Yet on this record, Governor
Murray certified that Campbell had been
duly elected
Condemnation by the press is not sufa-
Gent punishment for such a crime. The
office which this man has thus disgraced
should be taken from him. Such an ex-
ample as his Immediate removal is due to {
the dignity of outraged justice and vio- :
lated law. Mr.. Hayes will fail of doing
his p in and imperative duty in the T
premises, if he does not proceed, without ,
delay, to take off the official head of this
usurper.
