DUDE.

AT a meeting of the farm animals
the dade once attempted to prove bis
relationship TO the jackass.
"why," be said, vAiuly, "just look
al my ears We must be nearly re.
lated"
"True," returned the jackass, "you
may be . degenerated mule but
though ! have often heard men call you
a jackass, they have never yet insultOd
mo by calling me dude"
AT this speech the other animals
burst into laughter and tho cresliAllen
dude slunk silently away.
Moral: This fable teaches us that
an ordinary mortal should not attempt
10 claim the acquaintance Of . hOtal
clerk.

T. U. of Cleveland, Ohio, at its last
meeting voted to send = petition to
President Cleveland asking him, in bis
message, to call attention to the fearful
ravages Of intemperance in our country,
also to ask the consideration of meas
ufes prohibiting the manufacture and
sale Of alcoholic drink throughout the
United States. The petition was signed
by every member of the new unien.
Mrs. Perkins, as Secretary, prepared
and forwarded the petition,
Would 1t not be we'll for all the un-
ions Of our country to forward similar
petitions /? Two hundred thousand

this direction, and I thiak we have
constituency of that number. This
work, if done at ell, should, be done at

In response TO our request for facts
on this point, prominent Chicago
business man sends the following In
formation: "In Cook county, outside
the city Of Chicago, which is situated
therein, thifty-ons saloons are rum
ming without paying any state tax.
They pay United States tax, but do not
pay the five hundred dollars required
by state law. Hence they are not In
cluded in state reports, and hslp to
make up the decrease Of saloons under
high license. But they sell just as
much liquor as ever, and II causes just
as much misery as though they fulfilled
every condition Of the Harper law
and no less.
A careful examination Of the records
discloses this state Of things: Most OF
these saloon keepers pay their state IL
ccnse quarterly the arst quarter was
promptly paid,perhaps the second quart
er the same. Then some one Of them,
with an eye to business, took out beer
license, which costs only half AZ much
As one for selling whisky /; but bo sold
whisky just the same, and notcdy OBJ
jeoted. If bis fellow dramsellers found
him out, instead Of bringing him to
justice, as We were assured they would
do, they said nothing. but followed bis
example. The next quarter somebody
was = week late in paying bis license
no harm came to him and the next time
be was 8 month behind, with the same
result, and 50 ii went on till the license
was not paid at ell. The records show
the facts in the cass--we can draw oar
own inference.
Immunity from punisbment always
brings disregard for Law. and this i'm.
munity the dramsoller enjoys. We
have seen that bis fellows are not going
10 assist in bringing him to justice, for
they ell dwell Ia glass houses. The
local officers whose duty il In TO enforce
the Law, dare not do so, because be con-
trolls votes they may need in the next
slsotioH. Ia .lersia.a~aa~.-.s'seo seos :. 80 -
and grows more defiant Of Law with each
succeeding quarter. This explains the
undeniabIe fact that the number Of sa-
looms selling without complying with
the high license Law is largely on the
increase.
A significant fact Ia this connection
is that each Of thsse thirty-one saloons
paid its United States tax promptly.
The reason ID obvious internal revenue
collectors do not depend upon the saloon
vote or any other vote for their posi-
lions, and 30 are not deferred from do
ing their duty by the fear Of losing il /;
whereas the state tax must DO collected
by men who know their election is
largely dependent upon that vote, and
do not wish 70 risk It by gaining the
ilI-will Of the saloon keepers and The
proverbial ten whose votes each saloon
keeper controls.
Herein is strong argument for
national prohibition, and national and
state party composed Of men whose
votes are not for sale over the bar Of
saloon Union Signal.

silver Coinage.

WAsHINGToN, Dec Ex-senator
Mcpherson of New Jersey had a
talk with the President today. 1t
is understood that the Senator will
reply to the speech lately delivered
BY Senator Beck on the silver ques-
ton. McPherson's argument in
reply to Beck, it is said. will re-
ceive the Presidents approval be-
fore it is delivered.
PAPERS OPINION.
The Star this evening says: 1t
it is impossible to Judge of the
strength or weakness of either side
on the silver-coinage question IN
the House. Many members, it
says, are in doubt. The opinion is
pretty generally expressed that
neither side has majority as it
now stands, but that the balance of
power is held by those who have
not yet made up their minds. The
fight will be to win those doubtful
votes, and some compromise meas
ure is likely to come in for pretty
good support.
