city in the State. Recently }. H.
Sharp, an agent, was arrested here
while selling rugs, on the ground tht
he had not taken out a peddler's Ii
cense. The company claimed that tbe e
ordinance was unconstitutional, and
concluded to test the law. Applica-
ton was made to Judge Arrel for a
writ of habeas corpus. This afternoon
Judge Arrel decided that the Legisla-
ture had 10 authority to pass the law
on which the ordinance was based, as
it was in violation of the constitution
of the United States for the reason
that it Disseminated against parties
living outside of the State. UGder
this decision the ordinance passed by
cities lie en- sing peddlers is illegal and
cannot be enforced. This virtually
gives the right to any one to pejdle
any goods they desire without paying
tag to any city or village for the
privilege. The court sustained the
application and ordered the discharge
of Mr. Sharp.

A few Republican papers of the ul-
ira rabid class try to find fault with
the message of President Cleveland,
and criticise it with considerable bit.
terness, but the great mass of papers
of ali parties comment upon it favora
bly,, and seem to regard it as state
paper of much merit and fully equal
to that of any of the former occupnts
of the Presidential Office, and showing
its author to be a man of broad, COM
prehensive and statesmanlike views.
Some subjects of the message will not
probably meet with the endorsement
of even all of his own party friends,
but 1t is impossible to satisfy all minds
and meet the approval of many con-
fiicting views. In the mean time the
President will continue the even tenor
of his way, receiving the hearty sup.
port of the people for and by whom
he was elected to his high office.

Webster.s Chances Slipping Away.

Dispatches from Columbus announce
q decision by the Supreme Court in
the Webster case. The Court holds
that power to suspend sentence is vest
ed in the Circuit Court, and not in the
Supreme Court. The case was before
the Circuit Court at one time, but they
decided that they had no jurisdiction,
hut the Supreme Court decides other
wise, and it will come before them
again when or where, will depend
upon how soon Webster's attorneys
are prepared. The decision of the
Supreme Court leaves the case entirely
with the lower Courts, and to them

try should not lead to misuse or Der
versien of this power.
The necessity for such an addition
to the silver currency as is compelled
by the silver coinage act, he SAYS. is
negatived by the fact that up to the
present time only about fifty millions
of the els 900, 600 silver dollars coined

circulation, leaving more than $lG5.

Against this latter amount there are
outstanding silver certificates ainouut.

two millions OF gold i'll the public
treasury are paid out for two millions
or more of silver dollars to be added 10
the idle mass already accumulated. Ii
continued long enough this operation
will result in Ine substitution of silver
for all the gold the government owns

receipts of the government. to make
oOd this drain of gold because the
silver thus coined having been made
legal tender for all debts and dues

the last six months Is per cent. of the
receipts for duties have been paid in
