Mr.. HEWITT, of New York, made aspeech
in the House Of Representatives yesterday
in favor of the Bonded Whisky Extension
bill, In The course of which he said:
do not expect that these taxes, II the time
is extended, Will ever be paid. do not want
them to be paid. stand on the broad position
that this VIII bo the first honest step toward
the doctrine OF free raw material, which, IN
my judgment, is tho vital question OF the ago
and generation. would vote for
every bill which approaches TO FREQ alcohol,
and Will not cease TO work until tho total
abolition OF the tax is secured
What Mr.. Hewitt had the courage to say
is the thought of every man who advocates
the passage of the Bonded Extension bill.
Pass it, and the taxes will never be paid,
and the people will be deprived of the
benefit of millions of dollars, which should
at this moment be in the Treasury.

stances it was just as well to transfer Min
lister Sargent from Berlin to ST. Petersburg,
but five arc to be represented at Berlin
VIC want to sec an equally energetic man

Sargent is business all over, and it was his

THE finances of the State of Maryland
must be in very bad way, for Governor
McLane says that the necessities of the
treasury are so great as to call upon him to
interpose his veto power against the reduc-
tion of the marriage license tax. That tax
yields about $4,000, and it is no wonder
that the Baltimore papers protest against
this exposure of the poverty of the State.
But it is all good for the District, and
Maryland couples will continue to come
here and be married.

THE too common practice of making ar
rests without warrant and of invading
the residences of citizens must be broken
up in some way. If Major Dye cannot con.
troll his officers in this regard he had better
give way to some one who can do so. The
citizens of this District have certainly
some rights which even policeman should
be compelled to respect.

THREE different juries have decided that
the Imprisonment of Hallet Kilbourn by

an arbitrary power, and now the people

IL seems that the church society il

position that l presented in the Morn
ing News of the 9th instant. This is In
great contra : to the record of most Of
the Protestant churches in this country
| quote from the United Kingdom
Alliance News of February "a, 1884
The following is from the London
Christian World referring to the North
American Review
Nothing short Of the most entire
aud absolute suppression of the liquor
trade will satisfy this writer, who, in
order that there may be no mistake,
specifies manufacture, sale importation
expectation, and tralspor alton as the
things which are to be severally and
collectively prohibited. and for the
sake Of whose abolition the very Con-
stitution of the Republic itself is to be
altered"
1t might not have been worth while
to notice this fanatical rigmarole and
exhibition of spitefulness, if it were
not another solemn aud frightful warn
ing of the evils inflicted on the noble
cause of temperance by the undisci-
pinej camp followers, and Of the ma
tonal peril in store for us IL we listen
too Leedfully 10 their advice"
This and other like remarks Of the
London Christian World are met by the
Alliance News as follows:
We can assure the Chris ian World
that none of its alternative suggestions
can be OF any real service in deal
ing with the drink question. Neither
Mr.. Bright's favorite plan, which Scot
land has so long tried and found want
ing, nor severe penalties on publicans
Ter serving children or intoxicated
people, or on policemen for drinking
within bars or behind doors, will avail |
in this case any more than curry-pow
der shaken on the tongue will avail in |
or n postage-stamp wetted and
applied will cure broken spine. The
Christian World proposing such trihes,
only exposes its utterly and wretchedly |
inadequate sense Of the real gravity Of
the evil expressing this country now.
And in falling fonl VI the North Ameri
can review it reveals its woeful forget
fulns IS Of the truth, that remedy for
the evil which all Greater Britain,
through ali its vast extent, has already
adopted, or is evidently fast adopting,
must al least be deserving Of most re-
spectful consideration from he little
Great Britain Of which we form
part. As am now, so must you be,
is an old epitaph, which VT may W scly
write ont in this case not as memento
nori, but as disco vivers What our
sons and cousins all the world over are
plainly showing theinseves determined
TO obtain, we may very shrewdly pre-
tict to be that happy inevitable good
'ortune from which in the end, neither
his old country of ours nor the Chris
ian worl6 will find itself able es-
ape. =" W.

only business letters, and that the name
was not fictitious one, but his own

says, L. w. Thomas is my name turned

We did not make any objections to
