personal merit does not qualify him
for the position TO which he was APP

The Test of the Scott Law.


 COLUMBUS, May 28.-Judge Burke and Hon. W. R. West finished the arguments be- fore the Supreme court on the Scott law case at noon. Judge West for the law made the points that the tax paid under the law was 8 license on business already recognized in law as legal He also said in conclusion that if the courts would not protect the people the time would come when the people would protect themselves. Judge Burke, closing the argument for the liquor dealers, said the diff ference between the Scott and Pond laws was slight if it existed at all-the only diff efence being in the kind of security required, the Pond law asking a bond and the Scott law being lien upon the premises. He said the latter enactment legalized common tippling houses and in point of morality was the poorest law ever cbampioned by the temper ance element. The court was crowded dur ing the delivery of the speeches and the greatest interest was felt. A decision is ex pected next Tuesday.

 Force of Newspaper Men on the Ground.
 CHICAGO, May 28.-The trains to-day brought in but few persons of special promi- hence connected with the Republican con- vention. Stephen B. Elkins, who represents New Mexico upon the National committee, has arrived at the Grand Pacific. He is &C., companied by Tom Donaldson, of Philadel- phia, and the two might be taken for brothers. Elkins is regarded as one of Blaine's best in- formed ieutenants. He regards it as certain that Blaine will be nominated on the first ballot. He said to 8 representative: "You have noted that the Arthur men have been claiming fourteen delegates from Pennsylva- mia. That is all wrong. Practically Blaine comes with solid delegation from Pennsyl- vania and a gain of many men in the South hitherto counted for Arthur, although Arr men who have no vote in the convention. There have been some conversions to Blaine among the delegates.'' David Allerton, seo- retary of the New York State Republican conference committee, expects the independ- ents of New York to arrive here Saturday morning, fifty from New York city and fifty from Buffalo. MT. Cooper, of Ohio, who is member of the sub committee, is in town assisting MT. New, Governor Clayton and General Martin in arranging the details If the convention does not move as easy as 8 pretty girl on roller skates it will break John 0. News heart and General Martin can- not be induced to run for governor of Kan sas. Both the local and sub-committees are bounded almost to death for tickets, and w bile they cannot accommodate all, there is disposition on the part of the sub>commit tee to be as generous as possible. The Western Union Telegraph company have run thirty-eight wires into the convention hall which can be worked quadruplex and duplex to transmit 8 nenormous amount of matter. Wires will be worked direct to New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, St. Louis, Cincinnati and other prominent cities Judge O. A Lochrane, Georgia Democrat and counsel for the Pullman Car company, will be & spectator of the convention. He says it is the impression down South that there will be no dark horse brought into the race. He considers Blaine the strongest man in the Republics party. The most notable feature so far in connection with the con Een- tion is the number of newspaper men on the ground. They say they are here early be- is to be nominated, but that the nominee will be settled upon before the convention meets.

Tariff Reform Their Cry-The Platform
 of the Wtsconsin Democrats.
 MADISON, Wis, May 28.-The Democratic State convention commenced work promptly at noon to-day by appointing Judson Larson temporary president. There were no contests and everything moved yell. After recess the committee on resolutions presented their platform presumably written by Messrs. Bragg and Villas. It was all for tariff reform, or as Colonel Villas expressed 1t, ''we mean to do let the national convention know how Wis consin stands" The platform resolves that the continued resistance of the tariff monop- oIists who control the Republican party to justice by the people has raised the issue to a position of first importance in the campaign. The fostering of the wealth of favored class at the expense of the producers of the coun- try is condemned Another resolution com- mends the efforts of majority of the Demo cratic representatives of the House to bring about reforms but no other reference is made to Morrison's bill. The concluding Ees- olution declares in favor of the utmost ib- erality in pensions and the just claims of the soldiers of the war. The election of dele gates at large resulted as follows! Colonel W. F. Villas, General Edward S. Bragg, James J. Jenkins and Joseph M. Morrow. The electors-at-iarge vera then chosen and the business of the convention was over.
