Tho Pistol.-We are in favor Of a
thousand dollars tax on each pistol as it
is manufactured, and an additional tax
Of FIVE hundred dollars per annum upon
each man who carries one. And in case
a concealed pistol is found upon n man
the penalty should be at least ten years
in the pcnitcntiary. There is no use in
mincing matters in questions Of this
kind. Down with the practice ut once,
and the only thing that will put it down
is a severe law against it and that law
rigidly enforced. Humanity demands it,
and human life will not be safe until
such n law is passed md enforced
towards and thieves arc the only ones
who will be put to any Inconvenience
by such n law, and for them we should
have no concern. The innocent and de.
cent people of our country deserve
more consideration than the lawlcss
rowdics and %murdercrs, and we think il
is about time that our lawmakers and
representatives in the Legislature were
making q little more effort towards pro.
tecting them. The murderer and row.
DIV has had his full share Of protection.

There should be restraint and punish
ment, within discreet degrees, but no
fanatical, ultra, bigoted ordinances
ought to be adopted.
The %Gothenburg system has been
successfully tried in Sweden. This is,
in brief. the control Of liquour dispcn-
sation by companies licensed by the
State, whose saloons are for eating pur
poses mainly. the consumption of any
ardent spirit being incidental. The
profits Of these saloons, which are lin
itcd by law, go to the establishment and
maintenance Of institutions for the ben
eft of working people.
This system has done wonders for
Scandinavia. 1t is to be tried in Great
Britain. Some doubts are expressed us
to it's practicabiliry in this country. but
it may be worth trying, with moditica-
tons. The first step to n sensible, gen.
uinc reform in such matters would seem
to be by graduation. The extreme pro-
utoitlOIiSt pTctcTS lnStunLunCOu reform,
which does not appear to be feasible,
At least it has not had any miraculous
results in Maine, Vermont or Iowa.
There are mcn who can hold their pas
sions in leash. There are men who
practice drinking in moderation. There
arc men amcnoblc to church and family
discipline. There are other men who
are not so fortunately situated. How
these men shall be held in check. With
out injury to other persons, is a great
problem, worthy Of solution. That
they can be reformed only by the de-
struction Of liquor dealing, would seem
to argue that they were really unfit to
survive and that the sooner they drank
themselves TO death the better, in case
Of a refusal to seek an asylum.
10 correct the evils of the liquor trnf-
fc is high craftsmanship. 1t. is noble
humanitarianism. But the reform mus

Southern Cotton Mills.

A circular sent out by four cotton
manufacturing companics-two at Co
lumbus, Ga, n at Memphis, Tenn,
and II at Granitvillc, s. C.-to South
ern cotton mills stockholders assert for
the last three years cotton munuractu-
ring in the South have been on the de-
cline, and that nine-tenths Of the cotton
mills arc in a deplorable condition.
The purpose of the circular is to
bring about an agreement among mill
owners to limit production by closing a
certain number Of the mills. The prep
~osition, Of course, is that those which
arc closed shall participate in the prof
it's Of thooc which remain open.
The depression in cotton goods is
greater than it has bcecn in years. The
price Of them is remarkably low. The
impression MI along has been, however,
that the Southern mills were doing
much better than the Northern
mills. This circular, however, leaycs
ground for reasonable doubt on that
point. At the prices at present pre-
vailing. there is no margin Of profit for
'ho mills, and from the tone Of the cir
cular they will suffer serious loss if
something is not done to Ie171.y al over
burdcned market. The pooling plan
suggests itself to some Of the mill own

Water and Wine.

In 1876, ut the same time of the Cen
tennial Exposition, it was made known
to the assembled thousands and to the
country, that the water used in Phila-
delphia was liquid pollution. Last
year the Chief Engineer declared that
the river was "the natural sewer for q
population of $4,000 persons" Into
1t were emPticd every day $4,000 gal
Ions of domestic sewage watcr-closet
drainage for 1900 PERSONS. This
stream is contaminated in all kinds of
ways within a few miles Of the citv.
"Schuylkill water as delivered in tho
mains of Philadelphia" said tn. phi!a-
!delphia Press last year, lis hut another
name for diluted sewage" This year
the WV york T;"ns saws III" water is
in a very bad condition. Men from the
rural districts make money by selling
spring water: from barrels in the streets.
Now, any man who has n decent re-
gard for his health or life or stomach
would greatly prefer to drink wine or
beer. for example, rather than consume
the unuttcrablc filth that is called wa
ter in the Quaker City. And yet the
man in doing SO would probably become
subject to the anathema Of Prohibition
extremists.
What is trnc of Philadelphia is equal
~ true of numerous other places, and
It IS relatively true of much of the milk
sold or consumed in this city, which
contains the essential principles of the
municipal sewage.
A man who tried temperance in n
Northern city where the public water is
bad, said the mineral waters injured his
digestion, milk made him bilious, while
ginger pop and sarsaparilla kept his
Stomach in a fermcnt. TO meet a case
like this somebody ought to invent, a
temperance drink, which will not mar
cot'ze a man or upset his faculties Of
digestion. Possibly chocolate might
come near to this desidcratum hut in
case of cholera morbus, from drinking
impure water. no substitute for a good
quality Of brandy has been found.

Seldom have eight gowns in better

Queen WAS married. 1t was made ut

lent for the OCCASION to the bride. The
back Of the dress is simply a plain
train Of satin. The lace on the dress il
caught up with lunches Of orange bios
SONS, and on the left side is a panel
formed of orange blossoms. The white
satin bodice is low and pointed back and
front. The short sleeves are Of lace,
draped to the shoulder: more lace is
laid round the top OF the bodice, with a
garland OF orange blossoms, a few tufts
of white heather resting in the front.
The veil will match the lace on the
dress. The 'going.away' dress is cream
brocaded crepe de chine. in a small pat

which is carried down the front on the
drapcry that crosses the left side, and is
