HAlIand's PTOhibIliGh Law

OF all the places in the world where
prohibtory liquor laws are supposed tc
be popular, Holland would be the last
and yet Holland has passed one. AS a
general thing the Germans can be
counted almost solid against prohibi-
tion all the time, but over yonder in
Europe the little Dutch kingdom of
Holland has felt the need of prohibi-
tory law of some kind and the people
have taken the matter in hand and
passed one 1t is not very sweeping
one it is true and yet it reaches a great
ways. 1t IL made un.awtul for deal
or in spurious liquor to sell to any per-
son holding any kind of public ap-
pointment, or to any other person not
holding license under the provisions
of the statute. In plain terms office
holders are required to be total absti-
nsnce men, and if any other person
than Offices feel that they must have
something for the stomach's sake, they
are required to procure a license which
prevents them from indulgence. Such a
law in this country would be consider
ed Inconsistent outrageous, as tramp
ling upon the rights Of the dear people
and subversive Of personal liberty.
Yet if such law AZ this had been in
force in the United States, it is posi-.
bic that such disgractful orgies as were
sen on General Garfield's funeral
train and at the Yorktown Centennial
under the auspices Of Congressman
would be prevented in the future, for
1t Is not likely that the members Of
Congress would be anxious to spend
money in buying liquor for non office
holders and dealers couldn't sell any
to the Office holders.

NEW YORK SEEMS already to have
surfeit of the Russian Jews. fer whom
so much sympathy a slpJl1 time age
was exercised, and properly on account
of the great persecution through which
they had come. The later arrivals are
reluctant to get down to hard work
in the shop or in the fields like other
immigrants, and their peddling and
trading instincts seem next to their re.
ligious feeling to dominate all others.
Of course this propensity has made II
somewhat difficulty to dispose Of them
and an exchange remarks that it would
be we'll if their own people would, on
meeting them at the wharves, tell them
plainly and firmly that in this country
they must work for themsely es, not
make sharp bargains; that the country
rather than the city will best enable
them to enjoy the freedom they have
sought in this country.

WE REGRET that the Republican
members Of the City Council let another
meeting pass over without having taken
some action looking to the publishing of
financial statement showing the ex,
listing deficit in the running of the city.
1t is well known that a deficit does ex-
ist and it is no more than right and
proper that the people should know
that 1t was made by former Council.
If the City Council has any notion of
publishing such statement, they
should reflect that II is one of these
things which cannot long be delayed.

POSTMASTER SwIGGETT is not only
determined to keep the postal service
OF Wilmington up to the high grade of
efficiency which it attained under his
predecessor, Mr.. Pyle, butif possible lie
is determined to extend its usefulness
for the benefit of Wilmington and the

in putting on an extra mail East and
one for the peninsula. Such energy
and efficiency will make Postmaster
Swiggett very popular.

The North Carolina Campaign.

The Malone movement has spread
and taken deep root in North Carolina,
and promises to work serious injury to
the Bourbons in that State. The move
ment is like the Malone revolution in
everything except in finances. The
Bourbons have themselves invited IT.
bellion into their own ranks by crush
ing all attempts at liberty of thought or
action amongst the young and progress
sive men of their own party. The
South in many States is like the North
growing tired Of the Shibboleth OF
war and reconstruction cries as basis
of political atfiliation. The South wants
a more liberal policy in State affairs,
and the old leaders knowing that this
means their expulsion from power are
fighting it with all the vim aud obsti.
macy for which they are famed. The
Republicans of North Carolina recog-
nize the fact that an opportunity now
offers for com bination with the liberal
Democrats, and in their convention on
Wednesday the formal marriage OF the
two parties was made. The situation
in North Carolina Is different from that
in Virginia, In the latter the Demo-
Gratis are the leading spirits in the
coalition, while in North Carolina the
Republicans lead the vanguard. In
North Carolina, however, the number
of liberal Democrats is not known and
cannot be known until an election is
held. That they will not fall below
10000 though is pretty certain, and
that number taken from the Bourbon
Democratic ticket and added to that Of
the coalition will turn the State forever.
With combined and enthusiastic
Democracy the State has only been
safe for the latter by the most vigorous
action and often by very scan, major
tiles. In Virginia the great Readj juster
strong holds are on the North Carolina
border, and it is very probable that the
same influences have extended across
the line. The tall contest viii be ex-
ceedingly interesting.

The Nations Grad u q tes.

The Military Academy at West
Point and the Naval Academy at An
napolis have this week turned out lot
of shoulder strappers to command the
little handful Of men chasing the Indi-
ans in the Western territories called
m army. There are good many years
of unpleasant life in store for these
young officers unless they are fortunate
enough to get into the Engineer or Ar
tillery Corps. The misersbly niggardly
policy of the Government in reducing
the army down to mere handful of
men opens good chance for finding
young soldiers grave through the
agency of an Indians bullet. There is
a great difference in the work for which
these young soldiers are trained at the
expense of the Government. The ar.
tillery officer is usually to command on
the forts and to act on the defensive,
while the infantry and cavalry are al
ways on the offensive and are the most
exposed to danger. The artillery Off
Ger considers himself superior to An
officer Of any other arm of the service
and becomes kind of imperious ruler
which some would with more truth
than poetry depominate salaried loafer
who looks with contempt upon civil
ians, and with scarcely less disguisedcor-
tempt on his brother officers who chase
Indians on the plains, while for the en-
listed men who get under him unfortu-
nately, he has far less feeling than be
has for his dog. 1t is these artillery
officers in the Eastern forts, where no
fighting is to be done, that brings all
the discredit upon the army and creates
desire in the public mind to have the
army decreased in number unless these
young fellows who strut the streets
with pompous pride had something to
d.. If only people knew the gallant
patient fellows in the infantry and cav
airy who chase the Indians over the
plains and perish because handful
of soldiers is all that can be concentra-
ted at short notice and is expected to
battle successfully against larger bodies
of what have been called the finest cav.
airy in the world, they would have
some idea of what a soldiers life is.
Yet when the tax payers read that there
is one army officer for every ten SOL
diers and one naval officer for every
three sailors, they are apt to forget and
become restless that wiser system
would give more men to each officer,
when the bloody tradgedies that now
disgrace our Western borders would be
stopped. Knowing the public feeling the
young graduates of both these National
institutions, therefore, may we'll take
heed to the advice which Secretary
Chandler recently gave to the naval ca.
diets. He told them that the Republic
which had educated them so generous
ly had right not only to expect from
them industry and good intentions, but
also the best and bravest behavior un-
der all circumstances.

The Illinois Republicans are consid-
erably exercised over the nomination
of Daniel II. Pinney, of their State, to
be Associate Justice OF Arizona, which
was sent to the Senate on Wednesday.
As Pinney is full.tledged Democrat
the nomination occasionea much AS
tonishment, and it was thought the
President had made it under some mis-
apprehension Us to his political atlila-
tions. 1t is ascertained, however, to-
day that the President made the nom
ination at the personal reques; OF Sena'
tor David Davis, and with fail know
ledge that Pinney is not EepuoIican.
The nominee was strong supporter OF
Davis at the time of his election to the

Remarkable Superstition.

1t seems that there are even in this
age persons who believe in witches. In
Salisbury Township, Lehigh county,
Penn. young lady is suspected of be-
ing a witch, and parents are afraid to let
their children go out after dark, and if
any are taken sick it is supposed they
are bewitehed, and, as prev entive, all
the neighbors are having horse-shoes
nailed on their doors. This grows out
the fact that a young man, married last
Fall, is afflicted with st. -Vitus's dance.
That such notions should be entertain
ed in this age is marvellous and shows
that there is still great work for the
fool killer to do. Usually it is only
old and ugly women who are supposed
to be witches, but in this case, it seems,
that young woman is supposed to be
a witch. We pity this young lady,
who, of course, is Innocent, THAT she
should have her character slandered
and her sensibillties wounded, and
think that her Ignorant traducers in the
language of Thos. Benton should be
"cut for the simples," that their eyes
might be opened to the grossness of
their ignorance and superstition, and
the terrible wrong they are inf1icting
upon the character of an innocent
young woman.
