Detroit Gin Singers.

DETROIT, Sept. IA convention Of re-
tail liquor dealers has been in session IN
this city yesterday and to-day. composed
OF many dealers Of this city. They adj
iourned this afternoon after adopting reso-
lutions condemning the rising prohibition
sentiment, and promising to resist it. They
also resolved to prosecute all the lowest
class of saloons IN the city, a full quarter
of the whole number, that keep open all
night in defiance Of law, ard are known
resorts Of low characters, and they will
employ an attorney to conduct such
suits and detectives to hunt up evidence.
The question of how their political support
should be given was discussed; but without
formal action. A sentiment favorable to
the Republican candidate seemed to be
general, while he frankly avowed himself
as standing on platform demanding the
Submission Of prohibition amendment to
a vote of the people. The Fusion candi-
date refused to answer letter of inquiry
as to his views, and is suspected of being
prohibitionist.

The Lawrence Barrett Club finished their per.
formanccs on Saturday BY repeating "The NIer-
chant Of Venice" at the matinee and Julius
Cesar at night. In the former play the part of
ShylocE which had been sustained the night be.
fore by Mr.. Hanford was taken by Mr.. David C.
Raugs who deserved the warmest praise for the
excellence of his performance, which was Il de-
cided improvement over that of the gentleman
first named. He displayed greater originality Of
conception, more careful study, clearer attention
to the details of business and far more express
sive play of feature. Both Messrs. Bangs aud Han
ford display decided hstriOniC talent, and should
they adopt the stage as a profession would un-
doubtcdly be successful. The former has the more
flush In his acting and has better knowledge of
stage business the latter hns the better presence,
but II awkward and angular In his movements.
The faults of each would be overcome by the drill
ing obtained in n good stock company. The per-
iormancC of "Julius Cesar" Saturday night was
the best given by the club. all the members seem
ing to be at their best The future appearances of
the club will be eagerly looked for

TO the Editor of THE REPUBLICAN;
The most sensible and practical location for the
new Congressional Library is the one lately pro-
posed in THE REPUBMCAN-namely, on the west
front Of the Capitol and extending, If you please,
around on the north and south sides. The idea l
am informed, was suggested several years ago by
Senator Conkling, Let us consider some of its ad-
vantagcs:
First--It would be the most economical location.
The Government owns the land and the terraces
are not only useless but uusightly, and the earth
in them is needed to fill up the low ground south of
5 IssocoRd-it would be the most convenient To-
cation.
Third-It would be decided architectural i'm
prOyement.
Fourth-Itwo would afford the speedlest relief to
the pressing wants of the Library, which could be
accommodated In a year or two,
Finh-It would open out the rooms In the
present basement of the Capitol TO light and air.
siXth-It would allow an elevator ON the west
side, beginning forty feet below the present base
Of the Capitol.
This last consideration ought to be cogent one
with Congressman Of heavy weight, Getting TO the
House or Senate on foot would be an easy and
pleasant task, for the elevator would save hun
dred perpendicular steps 10 the floor of either
House. Even the Hon. David Davis would prob
ably have tho benefit Of this relief before the eX-
pirAuon of his term as President Of the Senate,
