LET THE PEOPLE RULE.

The women of Ohio and Pennsylvania are
organizing to ask the submission of prohibi-
tory constitutional amendments 10 the people of
those States. They meet with opposition in GER
tain quarters on the ground that majority of the
people being presumably opposed to prohibi-
ton, such amendments ought not to he sub
mitted. THE TRIBUNE holds, on the contrary,
that the Submission of constitutional amend
ments is the right way, and the only right way,
TO ascertain the will of the people in this mat
ter. 1t holds, moreover, that this is govern
ment of the people, for the people, and
by the people, and that any set of politicians
puts itself in the wrong, if it denies to the
people the opportunity to express their will
about the conduct of their government. It
does not follow that every constitutional amend
ment which an individual or a few individuals
may ask should be submitted. But when there
is a large and respectable body of citizens who
believe that n measure il for the public well
fare, and avOw their belief that they can con-
vince a majority of the voters that it is so, in
direct discussion upon the subject, it is right to
give them an opportunity. No other course
is consistent with the fundamental principles
of self gOvernment.
The party politicians who dread such d.
rect issue ought to bsthe first to welcome it,
They want the question out of the way. But
there is no other mode by which it can be put
out of the way, except by having decision OF
the people upon it, Where the advocates of
prohibition in large number have come to be-
lieve that they can secure a majority of the
voters to sustain them, if given an opportunity,
we may be very certain that they will continue
to agitate for that opportunity until they get it,
to regard every refusal IA more censurable
than direct opposition, to cry aloud for their
right as citizens to fair hearing and direct
issue, and to make increasing trouble year
after year, for any party that refuses to let the
people vote on the subject But, direct vote
once ordered, any politician who pleases can
declare hS neutrality or keep silent. The
question is not one that pertains TO the objects
for which existing parties have been formed
and il is therefore proper for men of either
party, if they see fit, to decline to act upon it
as partsans. When a decision has been rem
dered by the people, it is then proper to insist
that it shall be respected until there is clear
evidence of an important change in public
opinion. This feeling. too. would govern all

reasonable prohibitionists if they shonld be
defeated upon direct issue. II would be their
duty 10 submit to the will of the people, just as
it would be- the duty of their opponents to
submit if prohibition should be decreed.
Enough would submit to render further agta-
ton impracticable for years. In either case,
n settlement wond be reached, and the qucs
ton would be put out of the way as political
force until there should appear evidence of
change in public opinion.
IL il clear that there has been change,
within the past few years. IN favor OF pr0hlDi-
ton. That change has been great enough to
secure the adoption of prohibitory amend
mcnts in two Western States. Whether it has
gone far enough to produce the same result in
other States, upon full discussion and direct
ISSUE can only be ascertained by trial. III 1t
has not the advocates of prohibition are max
ing serious mistake of Judgment in asking
verdict at this time, because an adverse de-
cision would inevitably prevent any further
discussion or trial for years to come The
American people are practical, and they VIII
not waste time in debating measure against
which the majority has recently decided. But
if the change of opinion has gone so far, in any
State, that a prOhibitory amendment would
now be adopted upon full discussion and q
direct issue, then any who oppose submission
are actually trying to deprive the people of
their right to govern themselves. No party,
no set of politicians, can afford to take posi-
ton so 0dlOus.
In Illinois, where there is also some agita-
ton on the SUBJECT Republican organization
in one county has adopted, by a majority vote,
resolutions declaring that prohibitory amend
ment ought not to be submitted, on the ground
that every person has an nalienable and
sacred right to make or drink intoxicating
the distllers and saOonkeepers. 1t will not
be.adopted by the people in any State in this
Union. For, if every person has this sacred
right, it is violated by every measure
of restriction for the public gOod-by license
laws, which have been adopted in almost every
State by local option laws, which have been
adopted in several; by restrictions as to minors
or the Sabbath, which have been generally
approved and by every form of taxation to
which that kind of business is separately sub
jected, whether by the States or the Federal
Government. There is no such sacred right
On the contrary, the public has right to pro-
tect itself against that which produces crime
as well as against crime itself. The question
whether necessary and adequate protection
can be obtained by license or other police reg
ulatons, or by prohibition only, is one that the
people should have chance to decide for
themselves.

CHOOSING BETWEEN DEMOCRATS.

Republicans in Congressional district who are
reduced to choice between two Democrats by the
absence of q candidate of their own party are gen.
orally in an unhappy predcament. But when

the other the most worthless of demagogues Repub-
can duty is clear enough. That is just the way the
matter stands III the Id District the other side
Of the East River William +. Robinson, the rant
ing Fenian, who has promised to wiring the neck of
the British lion if he is sent back to Congress to
assal that unhappy beast once more, has the regu-
lar Democratic nomination. David A. Body, the
wel-known banker, has been induced by prominent
citizens of both parties to enter the field and the
Republican Convention has approved his nomina-
ton. Between two such men there can be no posi-
BILE hesitation as to which deserves the support Of
every intelligent voter The grotesquely absurd
way in which Mr. Robinson has misrepresented an
important district In the third city IN the Union
ought to be stopped. 1t is true that he had big
majority two years ago-over 7,000-but such out
rageous folly as his is enough to take away even
that large vote. Moreover, 1T must be remembered
that his opponent In 1880 was weak candi-

was forbidden 10 stand up a second time and
let Mr.. sullivan pummel him that he recon-
sidered his determination to come here and

like the Society for the Reformation of Juve-
nile Delinquents, do not stop annoying the
managers of the walking match, the distin-
ouished foreigners who are now going as they
please in Madison Square Garden may be
equally discouraged and never put foot on our

A Memento of the War.

A fine work of art was received here yester.
day from Brooklyn, N. Y, where 1t was de.
signed and executed, and has been on exhi.
bitlon there for the past two weeks. 1t is
especially attractive to old soldiers, as 1t re.
lates to an extraordinary circumstance that
happened twenty years ago at Manassas. and
10 Masons as 1t involves the honor attached to
this institution.
The work alluded to is on exhibition in the
window of Willett Ruoff's store, 905 Penn
sylvania avenue, where II is attracting great
attention. 1t is composed of expressions of
gratitude executed in the highest style OF
penmanship, with photographs ana a scene
at Manassas or Second Bull Run, after the
tide of battle had swept by the place ropre-
sented.
Captain II. A. Dimmick, of this city, with
Dubey, of Brooklyn, N Y, all of the Tenth
New York Regiment, National Guards, under
Fitz-John Porter, were wounded and taken
prisoners August 81, 1862. After lying on the
field two nights and days they were taken, ex-
hausted from their wounds and want OF food
and water, to hospital within the Confed-
crate lines, through the instrumentality OF
Captain Hugh Barr, then attached to Stone.

humane action OF Captain Barr that saved the
lives Of the parties named, who have now,
after lapse OF twenty years, put their expires.
sions of gratitude in an enduring form and
with surroundings that Will ever recall the
memorable occurrence.
Captain Barr recognized In his PROSTATE foes
OF the Union side brother Masons, and alone
assumed the brotherly task of relieving their
necessities to the extent Of his power, and
after this was done he secured an ambulance
and had them taken from the field to a hos
pital.
Captain Dimmick, of this city, attended a
celebration at Winchester about two years ago,
and there met Captain Barr, the Masonic
friend who saved his life and his comrades.

return arrangements were made with Captain

memorial, and which eliminated in the fine
piece OF art which is now on Its way from the
donors to Captain Barr, who is unaware of the
presentation to be made. Heartfelt expires
sions of gratitude from each OF the donors

be one OF the valuable heirlooms of the future
that will ever recall tender recollections and
friendships that even the destructive missiles
of war could not sever.
