That is simply offering prize for murder
but as it is only bestowed upon the murderers
family, after he has been hanged for his crime,
we doubt If it will incite much competition.
The truth ia that the memorable course OF Brit
ish Justice has done more than anything else TO
bring about the present lull in Irish agitation
Four men executed in Dublin for ASSASSINATION
and four more sentenced in London to penal
servitude for life for attempting to free Ireland
by dynamite explosions, have had a quiet
ing effect upon the policy of violence. The
restless Irish patriot who thought it such fun
short time ago to get up a British scare by
blowing up building or two in London, looks
upon the matter now in different light He
is unable to see any fun in it if 1t is going to
lead to lifelong penal servitude. Neither Is
the assassination of British officials an exhila-
rating pastme If informers are going to betray
the assassins and lead them by u short cut to
the gallows. The offer of 81, 900 to the assas-
sims family il not sufficient inducement to
send men to death so certain as this.

The new World has plenty of zeal but not so
much knowledge. When it speaks Of the father OF
the person charged with the coupon frauds as " an
honorcd Republican" it pays generous tribute
to its own inaccuracy. The gentleman in question
as everybody knows but The new World, is an
honored Democrat. When last heard of his friends
were urging Mr.. Cleveland to appoint him Superin-
tendent of the Insurance Department.
p. S.-For the benefit Of The new World we
would state that the Mr.. Cleveland alluded to is
not an honored Republican," but Democrat

Although the rumor of an agreement De-
tween France and China is not confirmed, the
indications are that one will be reached pres
emily. Every day dispatches come from Paris
announcing that friendly adjustment OF the
differences between the two nations is consld-
cred probable. AS no fasts are given as a
basis for the assertion, PROBABLY wish for
peace is the father of the rumOr. There Is
feeling of uneasiness in the French Chamber
of Deputies at the prospect of serious cam
paign in Tonquin which the Ministry has
quickly perceived and change in the tone OF
official utterance therefore isnoticeable. China,
for her part, breads complications with
Europe, and the conciiatory statements OF
Marquis Tseng indicate that the authorities
at Picking would not object to peace with
honor. But it is hard to see how any COM
promise can be arranged without concessions
on both sides which neither will like to make.
NJ. Challemel- Lacour will have to take back
his assertion that China's suzerainty over
Anam cannot be recognized by France, and
the Celestial Empire will have to deviate
considerably from the policy of preventing
foreign trade except at seaports.

The President yesterday received the dele
cation of Irish citizens who went to Washington
to demonstrate against pauper immigration
from Ireland with the consideration which the
high character and personal merit of the callers
demanded. They obtained the assurance that the
subject bad already received the attention of
this Government and that the laws now in exist
ence should be strictly enforced. The only
difficulty under which the delegation labored
Is that the facts in the case do not appear to bear
out the statements in the Philadelphia Conven-
tons resolution which furnished the principal
reason for this visit to the Chief Executive.
However, as we do not want paupers TO come
here, whether from Ireland or any other coun-
try, the call which these gentlemen made on
the President will probably have good effect.
If any of the local poor-boards in Ireland have
had it In their minds to run of their poor upon
us, Shey viii not he SO apt to dc it now that
hey know the United States authorities are es.
ecially on guard against them. =

A Dishonest Pretense.

The Democratic platform pronounces
in favor of "a judiciouS and properly
graded license system" The Democratic
press declares its unalterable opposition
to''reg gulation of the liquor traffic by tax
tion," aud will be satisfied with nothing
short of a license system. 1t is true that
the Democratic candidate for Governor
undertook to convince the Supreme
Court that the Scott law was nothing
more nor less that a license law, but
the court disagreed with HIN, and the
Democratic press agree with the Court,
as it denounces the Scott law and cham
pions license system in the same
breath.
There is trickery in this. The De
mocracy of Ohio do not want license
system, whether ''judiciOus and properly
graded" or any other kind. TIey are
opposed to placing any burden or re-
straint whatever on the traffic in intex-
icating drinks. Knowing that the pres
ent Constitution of the State absolutely
prohibits the licensing of that traffic, and
supposing that it also prevented its
regulation by taxation, they have oppo
sed any change that would affect that
prohibition. The clamor now for Ii
cense is only a blind.
The Constitutional Convention, in
submitting new Constitution to the
popular vote in 1874, placed before the
people separate article authorizing the
General Assembly to regulate the liquor
traffic by d license system. That was
the Democratic opportunity. The prop
osltlon was not i'll any way dependent
on the remainder of the proposed new
Constitution. 1t was SO arranged that
it could take effect if all the rest should
be lost. 1t was defeated by an over
whelming majority, and The principal
responsibility for its loss rests with the
Democracy.
That was year of Democratic sue
cess. The Democratic State ticket was
elected by 1900 majority. The license
proposition fell short OF adoption more
than $1,000 votes. The vote for the
Democratic State ticket WAS 23S, ,4O6.
The yote'for license. which the Demo-
Gratis claim to be their cherished princi-
pie, was l72,252. Thus If every one of
the 172,252 who voted for license was
Democrat, there were 66,154 Democrats
whose votes were counted against the
of "a judicious and prop
erly graded license system" and whoI
were wholly responsible for its defeat.
This shows that the Democratic in |
dorsement of "a judieious and properly
graded license system" is dishonest |
pretense. They had it in their power in
1874 to secure such system and they
rejected it, They would
reject it again were it submitted to their
vote. What they want is to restore the
and untaxed traffic in in
drinks. Cleveland Herald.

COLUMBUS, OHIO, June 20, 1888. !
To the Editor of the Enquirer
A correspondent of the Cincinnati
Journal states in the issue of the 27th
inst. that 81 have been in the habit of
scratching Democratic tickets, and that
did not vote for Gov. Allen, but voted
for Gov. Hayes"
the Journal of yesterday, referring
editOrially to the matter, says: at is not
a bolt from this ticket (the present one),
but the result of chronic habit"
If this paper and Others that are abu-
sing me had wished to have known and
stated the truth, they could easily have
obtained 1t; but, as Misrepresentation
only is intended, | feel compelled, in
justice to myself to state that did vote
for Gov. Allen each time that he was a
candidate, and, further, that | never vo-
ted for Il Republican in my life, and
wonld not do 50 this fall if the Demo
cratic convection had nominated Il Dem
ocrat.'

we'll had the Democratic party been able
to control the work of tariff revision, it
would have been incomparably worse,
not only as to wool but as to other inter
ests. With Republicans in power, an
appeal can be made to tried and proved

Ohio enables the Democrats party to
