Our good Bishop Beckwith has been
giving Chicago newspaper talk on the
evils of whisky drinking. He says:
Liquor is the great curse to civiliza-
ton everywhere. ! believe in controlling
il by a system of high taxation. 1t is the
best plan in the world to control the
traffic. | have studied the question for
wears. and | am convinced that you can
not stop men from drinking liquor who
want to drink 1t, by prOhfOitOry legisla-
ton. This has been proved"
The Bishop is right. PrOhibitOry legis-
latiOn doesn't stop the liquor traffic. In
States where there are prohibitOry laws
there is as much drunkenness as there
was before the laws were enacted.
The better way is to tax all the cross
road grog shops out of existence. Positive
prohibition incites people to defy the law.
High taxation will not break up the liquor
traffic, but it will control it to such an
extent as TO rob it of some of its worst
features. Georgia is a rather progressive
State in this matter. There is virtual
prohibition in ffty-fOur Of her counties.
If there were no crOss-road whisky shops
the colOred labOrers Of the South would
be happier and richer, and would make
much more rapid progress in everything
that goes to make up higher civiliza-

It seems there is a little bit of secret
history connected with the admirable ad-
dress Of Governor Ben Butler, delivered
at the Harvard alumni dinner. He had
been informed that the senior class intend
ed to treat him disrespeetfully, and, in
consequence, had prepared a bitter, caus-
tic speed, reviewing some of the dead and
and buried misdeeds Of those interested
in the administration Of the affairs Of the
college. The seniors treated him so re-
spectfuIly, however, and Mr.. ChOate, in
his opening remarks, cOmplimented him
50 handsomely, that he was restored to
good humOr and made the speech, on the
spur Of the moment, which won him so
much applause. Butler is man of

not they are used as beverages Il so the

1t is discovered that large quantities Of

ton. The Revenue Bureau is Of the opin-
ion that these compounds are there used
as beverages to evade the local laws.

Louisville, October 1.-The Courier
Journals Washington correspondence

sent out within the past few months
bearing upon the question Of speaker
ship. The Courier will publish to-
morrow the results of its efforts, which
are summarized as follows:
There are 191 democratic members
in the west house. The democratic
caucus will not consist of more than
100 members. From the south there
are 101 members; from the the entire
east, e; from the north and west, SO.
Friends of Randall claim that after
Cox is out of the way fifteen out of
twenty-one members from New York
will go to Randall.
This claim is exaggerated, but grant
that it now gives him twelve votes from
his own state and half of the remain
ing nine votes from the east, he has
t~hirty-one votes. Give him twenty
five votes from the south, which is the
largest number claimed by his friends
and five more than he will even receive
and he has fifty-six votes. Out of the
6fty-three votes in the west, his most

Governors Meeting.

Galveston, October IA special to
the News from Saltillo, Mexico, says
that last night Governor Ma1ro, of the
state of Coahuila, accompanied by civil
and military dignitaries Of his capital,
met Governor Ireland, of Texas, at
Rineonado station, thirty miles from
Saltillo. Governor Ireland is spending
a few days in Mexico for recreation,
and was given an enthusiastic recep-
ton. Some surprise was evinced to
see the governor of Texas accompanied
by only two gentlemen, Hon. George
Pfeuffer and Captain Tarver. When
the train pulled into Saltillo depot it
was Governor Ireland's turn to be sur
prised to find fully 10000 people await
ing to welcome him and shouts of
viva Texas from the populace.
The party entered the c~onveyances
and, preceded by a splendid escort, were
taken to the residence where Governor
Ireland will remain the guest of the
state during his brief stay. To-day he
was called upon by Governor MADEIRA
and staff and by the leading citizens.
Quite a delegation of resident Ameri-
cans also paid their respects. An Off
cial banquet will be spread in the mu-
nicipal hall this evening. The banquet
will be followed by one of the most
magnificent balls aver projected in Sal
tillo. Governor Ireland leads in the
first set with Madame Madero, wife of
the governor of Coahuilo.
The governors have conversed freely
with each other in regard to closer re-
lations between the two states. Both
gentlemen manifested a great desire to
formulate some acceptable plan by
which the plan of conveying stolen
property from one side Of the Rio
Grande to the other could be broken
up. Governor Maders makes the seri-
GUS complaint that citizens of his state
have followed stolen property into
Texas, but were prevented from max
ing any recovery by the United States
custom house authorities having seized
it as contraband. BE instanced a party
who retook a large number of oxen
from the thief on the Texas side near
Eagle pass, but in attempting to return
with them to Mexico. not only were
the cattle seized by the United States
custom house officers, but that a Mex
lean citizen was imprisoned for having
the stock in his possession which had
not paid the custom dues. Governor
Ireland will avail himself of the oppor-
tunity to obtain thorough acquaintance
with the Mexican question, and will
undertake OF his his return TO correct
as far as possible the abuses which are
practiced On the Rio Grande frontier. In
this endeayor he will be ably seconded
by Governor MADEIRA.

A Suicide's Burial.

Pittsburg, Pa, October Mrs.
Fannie Bryan, of Newton, the SEN
sational suicide, will be buried to-mor-
row The remarkable circumstances
of this case have excited the deepest in
terest here and the residence of the de-
ceased was visited to-day by many la
dies and gentlemen. The methodical
manner in which she arranged her af-
fairs and prepared everything for death
is believed to be without a parallel in
the history of suicides. She was doubt
less insane, but there was a surprising
degree of method in her madness. The
unfortunate woman was well connected,
being a niece of Alexander Campbell,
founder of the Campbellite church.
Her reputed husband, DR.. Grin New
ton, who suicided two weeks ago, was
a descendant of Sir Isaac Newton.
