Warning to the Liquor League.

We have liberal license law in Indiana, that
was understood at the time it was enacted to be
satisfactory to the saloonIIeepers-in fact, all
they wanted-but it turns out that most of them
will not obey it, and that here in Lafayette they
set the law and the law officers at open defiance,
In all this the saloon-keepers make a grievous
mistake. The people are almost a unit in de
claring that the whisky traffic shall be regulated
by law, and if the saloon-keepers will not submit
to regulation the people of Indiana may conclude
to try what virtue there is in prohibition. This
is no idle threat, especially in Lafayette. Men
who have heretofore, by their votes and influence,
opposed prohibition have become tired, and,
many of them, disguised with the open viola
tons of the license law by saloon-keepers, and
themselves. Prohibition can be carried in Indi-
ana, and warn the saoon-keepers not to trihe
too long with an outraged public opinion.

November. had the honor to serve with Gen

have watched his career for nearly twenty years
since. l am not politician and have no per-
sonal interest in his nomination. l name him
because l think him eminently fitted to be Presi-
dent He would honor the Office
The fact that his grandfather was President
has had its influence in shaping his reading and
thinking, and preparing him for the highest civil
duties. He has enjoyed the advantage of a
thorough college training of wide reading, and
of extended and varied acquaintance with men,
He entertains liberal and just views of national
questions He is, and long has been, recognized
as one of the abest lawyers in indianapolis, a
city noted for its legal talent When Governor
Morton died, the Republicans of Indiana in
stinctvely turned to Harrison as their leader
He has not disappointed them. He has served
not only his party but also his country well.
His personal character is above reproach.
Christian man without bigotry, gentleman
of refined manners, he will be able to carry to
the Office of President the respect and the conf

Mr.. BIaine,s Political Future.


Mr.. Blaine, within the last week. has said in
the most positive terms to men in high position,
that he would not be presidential candidate
this year He said this to representatives of
men who are themselves candidates, and who
have called upon Mr. Blaine for the purpose of
finding out just what his plans Mr.. Blaine
has had no reserve upon the subject. He has
expressed himself so clearly and distinctly that
he could not afterwards become candidate very
well without mourning a charge of disloyalty and
bad faith. This positive statement Of his is con
firmation of the general gossip upon the subject
which has been afloat for some time.
Blaine would like to be Secretary of State
again. but it is not believed that he has set his
heart very much upon it. He would return to
public life if it would come about easily. His
statement that he would not be a candidate has
been a great relief to number of Republicans
who feared that they might have to encounter
the Blaine element at Chicago.

CHICAGO, Jan. 8.-Charles Armstrong was
seventy Years old and the possessor of robust
appetite. Shortly before the supper hour last
evening he presented himself in front of a lunch
counter in Loftus's saloon, and the tempting
bologna and swiss cheese soon gave him release
from the cravings of hunger. While Mr. Arm
strong still gratifying his palate a MOI OF
beef became lodged in his throat He tried to
cough up the obstruction, but failed. The other
epicures. intent upon the viands. did not notice
that their aged companion was in distress. His
efforts at respiration became feebler. and before
any one noticed him he fell prone upon the floor.
In a few seconds he was strangled to death. Dr.
Buchan answered a hurried call from the horri
fed spectators, but the sufferer was a corpse ere
he arrived.

How to Secure Justice in Courts.

Porter County Nidette
To accomplish this courts and practice
rules need reconstruction so as to prevent delays
for lack of courts in session, by continuance
from term to term, or by change of venue,
and prevent a failure of conviction by the disa-
greement of a minor portion of the jury or by
reason of doubt against convincing evidence,
as also to employ the prisoner at some productive
labor from the first, this being only healthful,
moralizing, beneficial discipline, the lack of

Mischief of the Liquor Traffic.

Porter County Vdette.
We believe the proper policy to be to make the
liquor trade, aside from such tax and license,
subject to the same rules as all other business,
holding every one responsible forevery injury he
does by sale of anything the same as if by any
other wrongful act the wrongfulness to be de
termined by the court, according to whose fault
produces what is sued for as an injury. By such
a rule the mischief Of the liquor traffic and of
every other dangerous vocation could be checked
effectively if courts were ready and the rules of
practice practicable
