Liquor in Jury Rooms.

Scandals on the subject of liquor
in jury rooms seem to be plentiful
nowadays. A short time since the
free use of intoxicants by Dublin
Jury created much talk, which was
intensified by the fact that this
Jury was passing upon a case Of
life and death. A drunken jury in
California, also in1paneled to de-
eide Il murder case, next turned up.
This jury consumed two TASKS of
brandy, two gallons of wine, and
seventeen and a half gallons of
beer during a trial of eight days.
What they drank at meal times
didn't count" in this surprisingly
large total OF course this enor-
nous quantity of sack, compared
t, the time consumed, compelled
the court to pronounce the verdict
valueless. Subsequently the free
use of intoxicants by a Washington
Jury created much talk. N O W,
would our party "bosses" object, in
view of these shameful revelations,
to the abolition of liquor in jury
rooms? Or is it's use there also an
inalienable right. Chicago Neaos.

HOW TO DO 1T.
A Capital Reference of Present
and Future Interest, and the
Little Trouble to
Secure it.

A handy thing indeed to have
in the house will be the special e.
dition Of the B. & O. Red Book,
now in course of preparation. The
surprising results of this years e.
lections all over the country make
a most interesting study when pre-
scented in shape for ready compar-
ison. OF more or less interest just
now in contrasting the past and
the present, calculating from :" the
might have been" will prove an
all-absorbing occupation to very
many people.
In the new Red Book, which will
bear the cleverlv adapted title of
"How Twas Done" all the figures
are from official sources, being re-
ceived under the seal of the secre-
taries of the different States, and
therefore correct beyond question.
The comparisons and calculations
generally are made by experienced
statisticians, and may be depended
upon as accurate. The scope of the
little volume is something more
than ever before attempted in a
political text book, going much
farther into details and summing
up facts more concisely than the
ordinary run of such publications.
About everything that one wishes
to know is presented clearly and
intelligently. The comparison of
the vote of this year with the vote
of the preceding election are full
and complete, showing not only
majorities but losses and gains on
Republican, Democrat, Prohibition
and Greenback vote. Where States
have been redistricted congress
sionally, the com parsons are made
in districts as now constituted, and
in the remarks all the changes in
districts are shown as we'll as every
much interesting data relative to
candidates, etc, etc.
The book will be an invaluable
reference for use at coming elections
and those who take any interest
whatever in politics should adopt
means to secure copy now, as pos
sibly when they want it most the
edition will be exhausted. The
mere trouble of inditing request
to G. X. Lord, Baltimore, Md, will
insure the receipt of copy Of the
book, as no charge whatever is
made for it. Already a very large
number of requests have been re-
ceived, and envelopes are being adj
dressed as requests come in, so that
the books may be forwarded imme-
diately upon receipt from the print
er No publication Of similar char
acter can be produced for money.
Like all the B. Il 0. publications,
it will be gem from a typograph-
ical standpoint. AS an indication
of the value of the work, quite a
number of prominent newspaper
publishers have requested suffici-
Gent number of copies to send to
their entire list of subscribers at
their own expense, Any subscri-
Der or patron of this paper will
have a copy of the book sent to
him by forwarding his address, as
hitherto stated, to Mr.. Lord at

Folger's ACCEPTANCE.

Secretary Folger, in his letter accepting
the republican nomination for Governor of
New York, says the methods of the conven-
ton were in accordance with precedent and
free from violence and clamor. When a de-
csivc vote was reached there was no hest
tation in yielding acquiescence in the result.
Prominent persons asked him TO decline the
nomination, but after anxousy considering
the matter, and weighing the reasons which
they presented, he concluded that il was his
duty to accept He says: GAS sought not
the nomination, as | was not glad when il
came to me, as could always have seen and
could now see it go to another without one
twinge Of regret, have no personal reason
why should not refuse it with aacritv.
But the matter is not solely or chiefly per-
sonal. 1t has wider and vastly more i'm
portant scope In my iud gment, for any
one placed as | am ut this time, to decline
the nomination would produce the utter
collapse of the republican party"
Judge Folger then goes ON to show that
at this late day it would be impossible to
call new State convention, and he saws
somewhat mournfully that be the result
what it may, he will not take the RESPONSE
bility of breaking up the republican party.
If it is to be defeated at the coming election,
he will go down with the party, serene in
the consciousness that no act of his sshas
wrought the rueful RUM
