The Cause of Crime.
MASSACHUSETTS STATE PRISON.

OF the 534 men now here, the greater
portion would be glad to vote for the
prohibitory law, for many of them feel
that their safety from the perils of
drunkenness, depends, in great degree,
on such law. They realize their weak
ness and are fearful of themselves, and
desire such law to strengthen them in
their resistance to the seductions of the
cup, which has been their bane and
their curse. When about being dis
charged, to go out again into the world
to combat its varied trials and tempta-
tions, in answer to the hope expressed
that they will do well, they often say:
~ shall do well enough, if let liquor
alone. If | can resist when urged to
take drink, or go to some place where
| can't get it, | shall do well enough. y

My experience is that IS per cent. of
all crimes against persons are due to in
toxicating drinks, but the proportion
does not hold in cases of larceny and
burglary; nor is drink a potent cause
of such crimes, except, perhaps, indirect
/ ly through heredity.
GEORGE w. CARTER, Warden.
ERIE COUNTY IN. " PENTrESTIARY.
OF the 565 convicts in this institution
a great many will tell you that their i'm.
prisonment is due solely to the use oi
intoxicating liquor. Particularly is
this the case in minor ofenses, and it is
equally true of greater crimes wheu
they are traced to their original source
l am of the opinion that IS per cent
of the prisoners confined here are sc
confined because of their excessive use
of alcoholic drinks. There is a difference
in number of commitments as between
license and no license localities, in favor
of the latter. This is for minor crimes
but for felonies and crimes of highel
degree there is no difference. Since the
enforcement of the Sunday laws, or tn,
closing OF the saloons on Sunday, W,
receive fewer prisoners on the following
Monday than We did when they wer,

PROHIBITION IN THE SOUTH.

|
t The struggle in Atlanta over the
question Of prohibition is decidedly
the most important made for years,
for it is the first contest in a large
city, and the success of the anti
liquor party there promises to play
no little part in Southern political
affairs in the future. The liquor
question, which was barely known
in the South q few years ago, is
now an important question here,
the contest being carried on in
nearly every Southern State, in
Tennessee, Mississippi, Texas, Lou
isiana and Alabama with especial
vigor and energy. The movement
has been growing in strength from
day to day, and while the Prohibi-
tionists have sustained not . lew
defeats, the genera result has been
greatly in their favor. The prohi-
bition law in Georgia is especially
favorable to them in this respect.
If county votes against prohibi-
ton new election to try the mat
ter over again can be called; bat
as sooa as it once votes against the
sale Of liquor the matter is decided,
and cannot be reopened. Under
the influence of a law Of this kind
1873 counties have adopted prohibit
ton, while only fourteen yet allow
the sale Of liquor. The latter in.
clude the larger towns, and now
that Atlanta has decided to be
'sdry,' it is probable that they also
will join "the fresh water league"
The growth of this movement is,
indeed, remarkable in Louisiana,
Mississippi and Texas as well as ia
Georgia. The Atlanta election ap.
pears to have given the Prohibi.
tionists new energy and vigor, and
they ore buckling on their armor
for battle. More than dozen cleo
tons on the question are already
set, and petitions are being signed
for as many more. The contests
are more bitter and exciting than
ever. and both sides are rallying
all their forces. The contests are
no longer confined to the country
districts, but include the town as
we'll, Never until the Atlanta VIC
tory had the Prohibitionists sue
.ceeded in carrying acity. Not ev-
EN- there did they wholly succeed,
for the town of Atlanta gave a
small majority against prohibition,
and it was only by the votes Of the
rural districts that the latter was
successful; but the vote in Atlanta
was sufficiently large to render it
evident that prohibition is possible
in cities and we may expect to see
similar contests follow. - Times

The Presidential Succession.

The deathof Vice President Hen
bricks attaches more than usual i'm
portaDce to the succession Of the
Presidency, in the event Of the death
of Cleveland. At present there is
no President pro TEN of the Senate,
that body having adjourned its last
xtra session without electing a pre-
siding officer, Vice President Hen
bricks not having vacated the chair
so as to allow such an election.
Should the President now die be-
fore his term expires, il will de-
volve upon the Secretary Of State
to issue a proclamation Immediately
for the election by the people of q
President and Vice. President, and
during the interim the Secretary Of
State performs the daties of the
President, Under no circumstances
whatever can the Chief Justice of
the Supreme Court become Presi-
dent as enormously stated by the
Washington correspondent of the
Times e'aoc,ut. The Constitution
never contemplated nor does it per-
nit confusion Of the Judiciary With
the Executive branch of the Gov
ernment, as certainly would be the
ease should the Chief Justice step
from the bench of the Supreme
Court into the Executive chair.
The same correspondent is equal
~ mistaken in declaring that the
"acting Vice-President chosen by
the Senate when it meets will be 4
Republican" who will succeed to
the Presidency. The Senate can
not elect a Vice President but only
a President pro TEN. who presides
over the Senate during the absence
of the e-President, caused either
by indispositiou, resignation or
death. The Senate can elect diff.
ferent President pro TEN every day
if it sees proper, just as was done
when Senator Bayard was elected
by a democratic majority Of the Sem
ate and two days afterwards two
newly elected Republicaa Senators
were admisted, thus changing the
political majority, they proceeded
Immediately to re-organme the Sem
ate and elected Senator Ednlunds,
President pro TEN in place Of Mr..
Bayard, who had presided but two
or three days. It is plain from this
that the Senate's President pro TEN
does not become the Vice-President
whose term Of office is fixed by the
Constitution and no provision is
made for filling the vacancy should
one occur, Hence the vadancy re-
mains untitled to the close of the
Presidential term. -[Daily States.
