OUR RAILROAD LAW.

LeavenwOrth Times: The gentle
men who compose the board of rail-
road commissioners, Judging from
their first annual report, issued last
week, are very well satisfied with the
law, and do not see any respect in
which it needs amending or improv-
ing. The law has worked very salts
tory in many respects, but there is
little doubt but that some changes
will be made, aud there can be
no doubt but in some regards inn
prOvements are necessary. The ques-
ton will assurcdly be before the legis-
lature next winter, and in the selection
Of members of the house and senate,
the people should certainly consider it
aud the qualifications of their candi-
dates to carry out their wishes. At
the present time we will not attempt
to point out any defects. The work
Jugs Of the law are well known. II
covers complex question, aud
it is remarkable that in one ses-
sion of the legislature we Sc
cured a law in any way approaching
perfection. The commissioners point
out their lack ofpower 10 enforce any
desired change or regulation, and also
speak of the advantages derived from
being advisory rather than mandate
ry. The people do not want COM
munism. They want exact Justice,
aud their real interests and those of
the railroads are identical. But this
question Of power will likely come up
for discussion.

1T SUITS THEM.

The Prohibition platform declares
THAT the collection of revenue from
alcohols, liquors and tobacco should be
abolished" There would be consider
able division among temperance men
on that point.-Kewanee Qll } Courier
There will be no difference among
the liquor interests as regards that
proposition. They could not possibly
ask for anything that would suit them
any better than TO have their taxes re-
moved. Ii is very kind of the politi-

Mrs. Mary a. Liyermore publicly
protests against the election of Grover
Cleveland TO the presidency. She de-
clares "A man whose private char
acter would exclude him from decent
society should not bc installed in the
White House as the host of the nation
and the dispenser of its Inequalities. T"
And she concludes with this appeal to
the true friends of woman and purity:
Stand by the Republican party. Its
candidates for president and vice.

years of public service have entitled
them to the recognition they have re-
oeiyed. They are neither drunkards
Gor libertines, and their relation with

by wives and women friends of rare
intelligence, high culture and un-
questionable moral worth.

What the result of this quadrangle
lar fight will be, probably no man can
tell. The Democrats who are urging
it on have nothing to lose and every.
thing to gain. The st. John crew
have everything to gain and nothing
to lose. The kickers have nothing to
lose and nothing to gain. In Re-
publican victory they would lose moth
ing because every principle, save that
OF whiskey, 10 which they cling,
would be triumphant. In a Demo-
cratic triumph, every principle be-
lievcd in by them would be slaughter
ed save that of whisky.
II we have failed in the above TO
make an honest and square statement

Now, all that these protesting Re-
publicans want, all they are demand

they believe that Prohibition is not
only failure but that a majority of
the people no longer hold that it is
anything else, and they ask that the
matter be resubmitted. To this we
