The Worcester fSpg,i in straight
forward article on the st. Adams Ii
quor war, says: 1.-The business men
who signcd the promise to support
the committee are prohibitionists,
and approve of the enforcement of
the law to a certain extent, but they
wanted to draw the line for them
selves, not where the law draws it, at
total prohibition, but,somewhere else.
SO far as we can judge, the commit
tee was entirely right, and, the, bust
ness men wrong. If the hotel keep
ers of ST. Adams assume to dictate
what laws of the State shall be en-
forced in that town, aud what laws
be ignored, there ought to be self-re-
spect enough in the community to set
them at defiance. On the other hand,
if they prefer that hotel keepers
should be allowed to sell liquor, they
ought not to pretend to be prohibi-
ZIONIST, but frankly give their votes
and influence for a law under which
that may be done legally which they
are. resolved shall be done in then

Senator George H. Pendleton of
Ohio and ex-senator Mcdonald of
Indiana are thus early posing for the
democratic presidential nomination in
1884. We venture to suggest to
these two eminent democrats and to
some other gentlemen Of both politi-
cal parties who seem to be in a hurry
to get their names before the people
in connection with the campaign of
1884, that they are just two years too
early. AS a general thing those per
sons who occupy the front seats when
possible presidential or other candi-
dates are mentioned, are crowded to
the rear, and get left when the nomi-
nations are finally made.

oped independent movements which
can be depended upon sooner or later
to save them permanently from the
control of the democratic party.
All these changes have happened
within less than a year from the time
of Garfeld's Inauguration. They
show conclusiyely that those republi-
cans who argued in the last campaign
that the way to end the ''solid south"
was to defeat it were sound in their
views. 1t will be remembered that
these republicans were accused by the
able and far-sighted deputy democrats
of sectionalism for taking these views.

ION Man BADLY Officers Fired

PIrrsBr rG. March 1.-THE situation at
Homestead is again critical. The strikers
were to have started to work at the mill to-

poor farm, and while on the way, were
fired upon by some parties secretcd behind
some box cars. The shots took effect in
the bodies of both men. but fortunately
neither was fatally hurt.
The officers OF the Amalgamated AssOcia-
ton, who deprecate such proceedings, start
ed for the scene this forenoon to endeayor
To have the affairs settled without further
trouble. A number of special police were
also sent up to protect the city property in
case OF any serious disturbance.
PIrrSmR FRI. March 1.-THE situation al

breaches of the peace have occurred since
morning, but great excitement prevails,
and the citizens entertain fears OF serious
trouble unless the strikers and millowners
soon arrive at some satisfactory conclusion

wASHISerOS, March 14-When the House
reaSsembled. this morning, it was evident
that sleep had not proved sufficient to
soothe the angry and perturbed spirits OF
the members, and the war began. exactly
where it was left of the night before.
Reagan made an appeal to Haskell to with
draw his motion for the previous question
so as to allow amendments to be offered to
the bill. Haskell refused and an scrimo-
nious debate followed lasting for nearly an
hour. The scenes OF yesterday were re-
peated. and for the time being it was inn
possible to hear what was said. Finally,
however Burrows succeeded in obtaining
the floor, and insisted that it was the right
OF the minority to be heard and have an
opportunity OF offering suCA amend
ments Us they deemed proper. and
he therefore moved that two hours
be allowed for debate and amendment,
which amid much grumbling. was finally
agreed to, and the deadlock was broken.
So much confusion reigned. however, that
the steptOriau voice OF the Clerk could
scarcely be heard amid the din, and the
proceedings were frequently interrupted.
Several amendments were proposed. the
most notable being that OF Reagan, requir-
ing conviction for bigamy or polygamy
before persons were prevented. from voting.
This was lost as was the subsequent mo-
ton, to strike out the returning board
principle, and the provisions disqualityins
