THE action Of the city council of Sioux
City in passing a so'called tavern ordi.
nance providing for a ''high license of
$1,000 per year for saloons, naturally
e1citss considerable comment through
out Iowa. While the ordinance Is good
enough In itself, 1t is a direct violation
of the prohibitory law. The city law
makers have simply put themselves in
the very questionable attitude of law.
breakers. They have invited the saloon
keepers to break the law of the state.
1t seems, however, that some of the
saloon keepers have more sense than the
majority of the city council. They we'll

In all probability the English cam
paign in the Soudan is virtually at an
end. 1t is true that the troops have not
been withdrawn, and there is q show of
activity on the Red Sea l%ittoral; but
E%ngllshmen at home are growing more
and more averse to q war against the
Arabs for vengeance only. They do not

age at the end of 1t. If war breaks out
between their nation and Russia, there
will be the best possible excuse for with
drawing the British troops; but even II
that emergency should not arise
probably some other excuse
will be found for abandoning the Soudan.
The reports that the forces oil the mahdi
are rapidly dislnteg rating seem to have a
basis of truthinths cessation of hoatllities.
Tribal jealousies and the influence of
rival aspirants for prophetic honors are
apparently more powerful against the
mahdi than the vslor of the British
troops. If these reports should prove
true 1t would be- a great stroke of good
luck for the English. Whether or not
true, they come OPPORTUNITY to relieve
the discontinue Of the British retirement,
which seems to have become practically

Russia, which consisted last year OF %
vessels, including z lron-olsds, IL probs.
bly, OF only local Importance, though it's
existence necessitstes the ~stationing of a
strong British aeet In the Mediterranean
to keep the Russians within the Black sea.
But it Is tolerably certain that In case of
war the Russians would try to send a
part at least of their Baltic feet to sea.
This fleet contains thitty.three iron. clads
and forty-nine unarmored frigates and
cruisers, some of them reputed fast, be.
sides ninety FIVE torpedo boats and varl-
GUS gHnboats and minor vessels. The
recent reports that the approaches to
Cronstadt were being lined with tor
pedoes means, We may suppose, that on
these and on their numerous torpedo
boats the Russian engineers mean to rely
for the defence Of their Important har.
bors. The frat aim of the English will
be, of course, to blockade the Russian
fleet in the Baltic. 1t Is for this end, no
doubt, that the British admiralty is now
concentrating powerful iron.clad
fleet in the channel and North
sea. The escape to sea of even q
small fleet of fast Russian cruisers might
be a serious matter to the English. Such
q fleet, we'll managed and reinforced by q
few ships now on the Siberian coast and
elsewhere, might, without stopping to
fight equals, worry Its enemy In many
ways. A threatened descent upon the
British West Indies, for instance, would
necessitate the diversion of q numerous
English fleet, as we'll as of troops, to pro-
tect those exposed possessions. Two or
three fast and we'll armed Russian cruisers
in the Indian ocean would employ
another and considerable British force to
protect the Msurltlus, the Cape, and,
perhaps, to guard some Indian ports.

The visit of the Prince OF Whales to
Ireland cannot in any way BIZ termed a
triumphant march, Il was not alto
gether unexpected, however, that there
would be mora or less disturbance and
riot. Even the influence of Mr.. Parnell
could not prevent riots. The loyal
masses at Mallow were prevented from E
pressing what the Poet Laureate once
described as 'their loyal passion for
their temperate Kings" by the troops
and the police, who drove them out of
the station. Prevented from welcoming
their rulers the dispersed Nationalists
gave vent to their feelings by smashing
the windows OF houses which were
decorated In honor of the royal visit,
No doubt MI. Parnell would have pre-.
vented this riot if he could. Perhaps
the most curious testimony to the extent
of his influence was that given by the
mayor of Dublin, when he was Kissed by
the crowd on Monday. he informed the
assembly that she would at once telegraph
to MI. PANEL at Cork and at Msllow an
account of what had occurred at Dublin,
and they would see what the result would
be-" The actual ''result" was the riot at
Mallow, but this was probably
not what the mayor meant. he
meant that the king, that Ia to say,
the Boss, of Ireland would be displeased
with their proceedings and would testify
his displeasure. Whether Mr., Parnell
foresaw the riot at Mallo@ or not, no
body can doubt that If he chose to do 80
he could make the visit of the Prince and
Princess of Wales a continuous riot by
giving a signal to that effect. If the
visit has any political purpose 1t is that
of cosxing the people Of Ireland from
their allegiance to Parnell. II
has 80 absurdly failed of that pur-
pose that 1t Is perfectly manifest to
eyerybo dy that it can be effected
only by Parnells forbearance, Il not by
his active interference, In behalf of the
"honored guests" of the people of Ire
land. 1t might have been foreseen that
this would happen. As a demonstration
that Parnell Ia omuipotent In Ireland and
that the future king of England is impo-
tent the tour has already been complete
ly successful, This Is a pretty position
to put the prince In, and the political
sagscity of the statesmen who advised
lthis singular method of extending ar
olive branch IL equaled only by the wis
ldom with which the Wal In the Soudsu
has been conducted.

The proclamation of the emperor OF
China that the French barbarians had
humbly sued for peace and that he had
granted their prayer, seems to have been
a little previous. Perhaps the naughty
tone of His Chinese Highness rather net
tied the excitable Ere nchmen in Paris.
At all events obstacles have arisen In the
way of an Immediate settlement of the
difficulties, and there Is a good deal more
mystery about the reported conclusion of
peace negotiations between France and
China than seems necessary to a sincere
and genuine arrangement of terms. The
statement that France has proposed
the evacuation of Tonquin by
the Chinese, as a preliminary to
tie removal of shs Formosa blosk-
ade, moreover, does not sound promising
while the reticence Of the new ministry,
Just given thirty millions of francs for
war expenses, is not r%eassuripg. The
when peace is said to have been made
resembles somewhat too closely the Rus
sian way of doing things: negotiating and
preparing for war simultaneously. Per.
haps the strongest indication of a
pacific nature at present Is the pres
ence of General Campenon at the head
of the war department, for it ia we'll
known that he has been opposed to the
war with China from the first. and it Is
possible that he may ha, c made she con-
