The Georgia paper that made the asser-
ton that the New England farmer does
more real work before breakfast than the
Georgia farmer does in an entire day, does
not appear to know anything about
Georgia farmers. Perhaps, however, the

who doesn't have breakfast except on

Strange to say, none Of the New York
Republicans have suggested the name Of
j. 6. Blaine as a solution Of the Sena-
toriaI middle in that state. There seems
to be better chance TO put him into the
Senate from New York than there is from
Pennsylvania or California. Perhaps his
New York friends don't want to stop the
work on the ALLEGED history.

The claim recently made by the Re-
publican organs that perfect harmony
reigns IN the party is not borne out by
the facts. In New York the stalwarts
and half-breeds are apparently no nearer
together than tley have been for two
years. The stalwarts have not forgotten
or forgiven the half-breeds for their defec-
ton from Judge Folger in 1882, and the
half-breeds are still smarting under the
blows given them by the stalwarts and
independents in November. The Senate
rial muddle is no nearer a solution than
it was a month ago. In the meantime
the Democrats are watching the quarrel
among their opponents closely, and deal
with one Of the factions is by no means
considered an impOssibilIty. There is not
much talk, however, about ConkIing just
! now.

have been having their coal weighed over
by the public weighers. The dealers
weights were found TO Re almost invaria-

DRUGGISTS, LICENSE DEoIs1oN.

ESG8 U ONRAE1S1iS1 AICEfNSE DEkGESIVN6 Important License Decision by Judge
 Carpenter in the Superior Court
 The Larger License To Cover the
 Lesser.
 Prior to 1882 for ten years all druggists were chased in the license law with saloons, but kept open on Sunday. In that year, at the instigation of the State Pharmacy asso- citation, law was enacted which enabled druggists to sell on a physicians prescription by paying license of sig. This was in tended for druggists who wished to sell only on prescriptions on week days or Sundays. The same year the commissioners for Hart ford county decided that the $12 should be tackled on to the $100 license. The law as then passed con- tained provision exempting druggists hold ing the $12 license from the application of the Sunday law relating to the closing of saloons. In 1883 the Legislature fixed druggists license at $50, under which sales in limited quantities could be made not to be drank on the premises, and the SIP license was re- enacted and applied to towns voting no license. There was also established S10 druggists license for towns having less than 5000 inhabitants, making in all three distinct druggists licenses. The Hartford county commissioners ruled that under the $50 license drug stores could not be opened on Sundays without the $12 license was paid in addition. All the druggists in the city paid the double license except Captain Will Hams. A prosecution was brought against him on 'Eput up" case, man named L.. W. Bartlett being employed to purchase a half pint of brandy on Sunday. He first tried to purchase it without a pre- scription, saying that his wife was sick, and when the clerk refused it he went to physi- clan and stated that Prosecuting Agent Clark was sick, and by means of this story got 8 prescription on which he got the brandy of Captain Williams. In the Police court judg- ment was rendered for the State, and fine imposed. An appeal was taken to the Supe- rior court, and yesterday it came up on trial, Joseph L. Barbour appearing for Cap tain Williams. The State proved the sale by the clerk Ckeeping MT. Bartlett off the stand) and rested. MT. Barbour then offered in evil dence Captain Williams $50 license, and State Attorney Hamersley objected to it's introduction on the ground that it was ir- relevant, as even, if admitted, it would not protect Captain Williams in selling on Sunday. Judge Carpenter was at first in- clined to exclude the license, whereupon MT Barbour asked to be heard at length on the question The court said he desired full dis cussion, and the question at issue was then fully argued by counsel on both sides. At the conclusion of the argument the judge de- cided on the question of law that the cap tains $50 license protected him in Sunday sales Oh physicians prescription, and in eff feet that the commissioners should not i'm pose the additional $12 license. This being the only question at issue MT. Hamersley nolled the mplaint.-Hartford Times.
