Constitutional Amendment
Petitions.

Petitions are in circulation in this
county, and we believe all through the
State, asking the present Legis a'ufe
to submit to the legal voters of Penn
sylvania an amendment to the Const-
tuition forever prohibiting the manu-
facture and sale of all intoxicating
liquors to be used as beverage. This
amendment is asked in accordance with
Article Is, Section l, of the present
Constitution of the State, and is to be
entitled Article 19.
AS there is some apparent mlsap'
prehension as regards the proposed
action of the Legislature, we would
state that the effect of any legislation
will be only to leave the question to
the people. All amendments to the
Constitution of any kind, have to be
submitted to the voters, and approved
by them before they can be part of
the Constitution So that no person
need refuse to sigu these petitions
through any idea that the Legislature
can of itself put the amendment into
the Constitution. All the Legislature
can do is to agree to submit the quts-
tion to the voters of the State, and if
they approve of it then it becomes a
part of the fundamental law. and if
they reject it that is the end of the mat
ter for the time being. The petitions
themselves state this, and the law re-
quires it. We make this statement as
we understand it is urged Ivy some
against signing the petitions, thai the
Legislature has the whole power as to
putting the amendment into the Con-
stitution. This argument is very
likely used intentionally by some to
prevent others from giving their names
to the petitions. We have no doubt
the Legislature will obey the strong
desire of the people generally to have
athis question submitted for their votes
1t seems to be the only road to reach
a monstrous evil. And no other way
is so proper and right as the one pro-
posed. Whatever majority of the
citizens of the Commonwealth desire
should be granted them, and whatever
they do will generally be found to be
right.

FOREIGN.

LONDON, Nov. 1O.-The Daily Tel
egraph this morning has an editorial
OF American elections. Referring
to civil service reform it says: We
may take it for granted that the dis
gust at the continued Indifference of
party managers to national disgrace
tended greatly to ALLEVIATE thousands
of voters who stayed at home, or,
defying all the traditions of their
political lives, voted the Democratic
ticket. 1t would be strange if it
were reserved for the Democrats to
cleanse the augean stable of Ameri>
can politics and to secure for the
people what every well ruled State
must have, an upright and perma-
nent civil and judicial service.
The Standard, in an editorial this
morning, says; If the Republicans
in the United States lay seriously to
heart the plain lesson of Tuesday s
election they will not, in the long
run, have much reason to deplore the
magnitude of the discontinue in
which the misconduct of their leads
ers has involved them.
The Standard adds that the result
will certainly give an emphasis to
civil service reform. In that lies
the hope of the future for honest
men of all political opinion, and a
remedy for the evils which now de-
prave politics.
LONDON, Nov. 1.-THE Parnellites
voted against the Government and
the other Irish members with it, on
the first test vote on closure, yes-
terday. During the debate, five
officers of Indian regiments en-
gagged in the recent Egyptian cam,
paign, appeared in the gallery of the
House. They were greeted with
cheers from the body of the House.
The officers returned the salute.
The scene was without precedent in
the House.

An Easy Claim Settlement.
From the Wall Street News.

Less than a month ago a woman
about so years of age walked into
the headquarters of Georgia rails
road, announced her name, and said
she had come to make a settlement.
Settlement of what q asked the
superintendent.
"For killing my old man
"When 2"
"Nine years ago yesterday"
"Where 2"
"About fourteen miles from Ma
con-"
And so it proved. When the cir
cumstances were hunted out it was
found out that she was the wife of a
dead man who had been killed while
walking on the track, and no one had
been able to identify him.
Why didn't you come here soon
err" he asked.
''Just heard of it the other day, "
she replied. Il suppose the old man
was paradin around somewhere, and
would come home when his knees
wanted new patches
: "And what damage do you asks"
''Well, it was long time ago, and
my grief has been softened up a
good deal, and I reckon that $25
and a pass to Atlanta will be about
right"
Settlement was made on the spot,
and she took the next train for the
capital.

Special to the Cincinnati Commercial

WASHINGTON, D. c., November l.
Speaker Keifer, who is in the city for
a day or two, signing Speakers 8
certificates" or something of that
sort, does not show the general Joy
over the tumble taken by Robeson.
To most men the result in Robeson's
district comes as an unexpected
pleasure, in mitigation of the sorrow
aroused by the election of Keifer,
Page, Houk, Kellogg and the like.
To Keifer it is an unaccountable
surprise. He says he does not un-
derstand it. He worked SO hard, SO
very hard. He seems to lose sight
of the fact that it is Robesons past
hard work in wrong direction that
brought him low in the present in
stance, so hard work brings rest. 1t
is odd that the smartest men IN the
Speakers cabal, Robson and Hazles
ton, should have been defeated,
while the others, with only one-half
of their brains or brilliancy, should
be left TO manage the House. They'll
just manage" in way to make
the most of their brief reign, they
will do all that can be done to run
the House in the good old style
right into the ground.
The last dispatches received to-
night by ex-Secretary Henderson,
indicate that Boss Page, of Cali
fornia; Boss Keifer, of Ohio; Boss
Houk, of Tennessee, and Boss Kel,
logg, are all elected. No wonder
the "Grand Old Party" feels badly.

Mormon Matters.

SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH, November
10.-It has come to light that at a
meeting of the high priesthood after
the late conference, president Taylor
instructed them that priests and
bishops aud their counsellors are not
entitled to hold their positions un-
less they qualify by becoming polyg
amists. There are a few such
officers who are monogamists. One
has since resigned rather than take
another wife. His resignation was
accepted Others are in a quandary
as to what do about it. One
has been appointed president
of the seventies, on condition
that he take another wife. One very
young and new>made apostle, it is
understood, has complied with the
condition of holding his office. This
is the logic of the position taken by
the church. 1t must stand by it's
religion, law or no law It shows
that until the government proves to
be stronger than the Mormon
Church in Utah, polygamy will not
be suppressed, but rather stimulated,
in its growth and expression. There
is no doubt about the truth of this.

WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, November 10-Gen-
eral Sherman has submitted to the
Secretary of War a special report
upon the subject of military posts
and forts, in which he says: The
time is now at hand for a radical
change in the whole system of
piecemeal work in quartering the
troops of the United States. For
hundred years we have been sweep
ing across the continent with skir
mish line, building post here and
another there, to be abandoned next
year, for another line, and so on.
Now, we are across, and have rail-
roads everywhere, SO that the whole
problem is changed; and | advise
the Honorable Secretary of
War to go to Congress with
plan that with approximate perma-
nency, instead as heretofore, meeting
the specific temporary wants by
special appropriations in the interest
of private parties. Gen Sherman
outlines plan in which~he suggests
that the number of posts which he
names be made permanent, with SUBJ
stantial buildings. Most of these
are in the West and Northwest.
The following are the only Southern
ones: Fort Gibson, Indian Territory,
with accommodations for four CONS
panies; Little Rock, two companies;
Fort Marion, Florida, two
companies; Mount Vernon,
Barracks, Ala, two companies, and
San Antonio, Tex, twelve companies.
For carrying out the plan thus sug-
gested the general recommends that
the Secretary of War ask of Con-
gress an annual appropriation of
S1,000,0O0 for five years, to be ex-
pended by the Quartermasters De-
partment.

Killed With a Monkey Wrench

CINCINNATI, November 10-A
special from Morrow, OHIO, to the
Times-Star, says: Father j. B.
ODonoghue, pastor of the Catholic
Church at that place, died this morn
ing from the effects of blow from a
monkey wrench, administered by
Timothy Greene, on Tuesday last.
Greene, who had been arrested for
assault and had been bailed out, has
now been arrested on the charge of
murder in the first degree Greene,
who is an employe of the pump
house on the railroad, says Father
O'Donoghue publicly denounced
Mrs. Greene as a thief last Sunday
before his congregation, and that
when he saw the priest on Tuesday
he resented the insult, and in an ems
counter which followed the blow was
struck.
