THE IEhEGGAN stated a few days ago

such a measure does pass 1t viii not be

political Prohibtionists OF the State
Those Of that ilk who were so loud in
their cries for prohibition during the
campaign are unusually silent now.
Then they wanted 90 hurt the Republic
an party. now they fear that if a prohibit
tory amendment is passed it will hurt
tho third party movement. Ii would
have the effect OK taking the wind ont OF
their sails. Four years ago when it be-
came evident that a prohibitory amend
meut could not pass. because OF the Wig
or as opposition Of Democrats and few
Republicans. the Legislature was literal
ly overrua with petitions in it's favor. but
now that the amendment can be passed
tho individuals who could run cam
pagn so vigorously with possible official
postion IN view are rs silent ms the tomb
with prohibition in view. This simply
goes tO show that these political trick

they are ripe for riot aud unless times

st. Louis Globe Democrat
There has been. ever since the establishment
of judiciary system in this country a doubt as
to the meaning of the word Infamous in the
first clause of Article of the amendments to the
Constitution: mo person shall be held to an
swer for a capital or otherwise infamous crime
unless on presentment or indictment of grand
jury" Recently an opinion vas given by the
Supreme Court on this point, which, stripped of
its excessive and involved verbiage seemed
to decide that infamous crime was one
punished by imprisonment Not feeling salts
fed with this Interpretation. District Attorney
Bliss yesterday asked Judge Treat to define the
Supreme Courts definition. The Judge gave
his personal opinion from the bench that it was
not the intention of the justices to define as in
famous attractions of the law those offenses
which are punished by fines and short terms of
imprisonment. His idea was, those crimes were
infamous that might be classed in common law
as felonies, or the punishment for which is the
same as that prescribed for felonies. 1t was
deemed unjust to put upon a man who has
simply disobeyed a law through neglect and
carelessness the odium of the classification of his
offense with Infamous crimes, though his pun
ishment might be Imprisonment

The United States Fish Commission.
Washington Special.
One of the great humbugs Of Washington is
the fish commission. This commission was
created by Congress for the purpose of increas-
ing the supply of the food fishes. Congress has
been very liberal with the commission, and has
appropriated from $780, 900 to 100000 a year
for the object of its creation. The commission
first devoted itself to the Matching of shad and
their planting in various waters where 1t was
thought they would best thrive. Yet, each year
the supply of shad has grown less and less.
With all OF the money and machinery placed at
its disposal, this commission has not been able
to increase in the slightest degree this species
of valuable food fish. They have for several
years made abortive attempts to hatch cod
fish. They have not yet succeeded. The spawn
of the cod can be Matched only in very deep salt
water The attempt to hatch them in artlficI-
ally prepared water has failed absolutely This
year the commission is going to try once more IN
the neghborhood of Woods Holl. There is no
reason to expect that they will meet with any
more success this summer than they have in the
past. Everything that the commission has at
tempted has resulted in such failure that the
officers connected with it fear that Congress will
no longer appropriate money for it. For that
reason they are making unusual efforts this year
to see it they cannot increase in some direction
the supply of good fishes The attempt to make
the German carp popular has failed. This is
prolific and hardy fish, 1t has been introduced
into the waters of various States. They drive out
other fish and increase in great quantities. but
people will not eat them. They make a coarse,
rank food

SOLDIERS AT MOBILE.
Fourth Day of the Encampment-The In
fantry Competition for the Big Prize. !

MOBILE, May THE fourth day of the great
encampment opened brilliantly, with very large
attendance. Before the 81. 900 prize infantry
drill was begun an individual contest between
United States soldiers took place. Leslie Els
worth, of Battery L, received the award as the
best drilled soldier
The first to drill for the frst-class prize this
morning were the Montgomery True Blues. The
exhibition in marching was excellent, but the
manual was ragged, especially in firing, the men
not being accustomed to the use of cartridges.
which was excellent in many points, especially
the manual An error of the captain threw his
men ouI once, and an error of some of the men
broke up the company front
The Busch Zouaves gave an exciting drill IN
the competition for the prize offered for such
commands The company evidently stands high
in the regard of the public, as it was received
with much enthusiasm,
The Mobile Rifles resumed the infantry drill,
and gave the best exhibition so far seen at the
encampment.
The Savannah Cadets excelled the Rifles in
marching, the wheels being models of that move
ment. The weather began to tell on the men,
and several tainted in this and the previously
drilled teams The company's cadence was good
throughout. and the drill, as a whole, was fully
up to anything it ever did before.
The Montgomery Greys drilled last, putting
up faultless inspection and manual, and a very
good set of maneuvres, the company wheels
alone being excepted. They were irregular in
the center, and bent outwards. The firings
were about on the level of those of the Rifles.
After the contest, the cadets of the Tuscaloosa
University gave handsome exhibition drill.
Tomorrow the infantry contest will be con
tinued. Both the Houston and Chickasaws are
on the programme.

Making Haste To Be Rich.

Letter.
The agricultural chances in this country never
were better than now; the railroads are rather at
the mercy of the producers; the society in much
of the South is perfectly settled and in the
present depression the lands can be bought
cheaply, and are good investments for those
willing to wait. The demon in our economy is
the idea that we all ought to be made rich in ten
years. The ten years is the limit of a mans en-
deavors. With this conviction nevertheless, no
man stops working in this country He
cheats himself with lie and then forgets the
cheat. Hardly any American does not believe
that he is going to get rich and stop little ways
in advance of him, and none of them were ever
known to stop.

How MIR. Lamont Assists the President.

Albany Express.
A face once seen and voice once heard are
never forgotten, and in this way he aids the
President greatly, who has poor memory for
names and but limited political acquaintance.
A good story has just leaked out in which the
President and Dan figure in a humorous light.
1t seems that not long ago delegations of the
warning Ohio factions-the mossbacks and kids,
as they respectfully call each other-were in the
habit of paying visits to the White House to
magn each other and obtain-patronage. One
day fine appearing man entered the executive
chamber and approached the President
"His name is Smith from Toledo, and he's
Kid" hurriedly whispered Dan.
How do you do, Mr.. Smith, said the Presi-
dent in his friendly manner, and with the famili-
arity that to an onooker would betoken an old
acquaintance. sHow are the good people of
Toledo, and"-wth a knowing smile-"Mrs.
Smith and child are doing we'll, trustW
why Mr. President" stamnered the visitor,
I'm like yourself, a bachelor as yet, and won't
be married until June"
The President apologzed for the mistake, and
begged Of Dan to speak more distinctly in the
future.
