Drugstore Saloons.

To tho Editor of the Indianapolis Journal:
Ia last weeks Journal is a very pointed edi-
torisl urging our Legislature to increase the rev.
eaus OF our State by taxing or licensing saloons,
Why not also tax or license drug storess So far
as my acquaintance extends, more than half the
liquors sold as . beverage are sold by drug
stores
The Legislature may put a saloon license up
to $1,000. ana the druggist will pay his United
States tax and 60 right on retailing his liquors
the same as ever. His fines for the
violations of law in which he is
caught, win hardly exceed 500 year have
ence, as we'll as observation, how difaeult it is
under the present laws to find bill against a

that our laws should treat alike all persons en-
gagged in the same business. j. K HOWARD.

Forty Thousand Cars in Transit In Northern
Indiana and Illinois.


Freight men estimate that there were 10000
loaded cars standing ON side tracks in northern
Indiana and Illinois, Wednesday morning, which
had been detained by snow blockades and severe
cold weather. The freight blockade however,
will not last long, and the eastward movement
will keep the trunk hines busy unit!
navigation opens, necessitating also a
freer distribution Of merchandise west
ward in return. OF course the rail
roads which have suffered from snow blockades
win have increased expenses to bear in conse-
ouence; but this is an ordinary winter risk in
the States affected, and will probably make but
little difference in the total expenses Of the year,
especially as it is reported that precautions were
generally taken in advance Of the heav-
lest storms by a judicious deten-
ton of trains that would otherwise
have been showed in while in the open country.
While it lasted, however, the snow blockade
acted as pretty strict embargo on a very i'm
portant part of the cOuntry's trade, and there is
naturally some impotence that it continues so
long as it has done.
For that portion of the freight business which
they are able to transact, the trunk-iines are
receiving full rates; but their passenger business
Is unfaVorably affected, aud east bound rates are
no longer fully maintained though it is not yet
certain that they will be reduced as much as the
west bound rates have been. In those parts of
the country whore frost is less important among
the conditions Of transportation, the railroads
seem generally TO be earning more money than
at the same time last year.

Why General Passenger Agents Give Com
.mercial Travellers the Cold Shoulder.

Why General Passenger Agents Give Com
.mercial Travellers the Cold Shoulder.
For years past commercial travellers have been
complaining of the injustice to them on the part
of railroads, claiming that they are entitled to
still lower rates than are NOW given, and asking
that style of mileage tickets be adopted upon
which they can travel on any road in the United
States. and half dozen other reforms
This all sounds well when talked of in
one of their conventions, and it might BE good
policy to crafty the wishes of this large class of
patrons of the railways were all commercial
travellers honorable men; but general passenger
agents report that they experience more trouble
through the dishonerable schemes COM
mercial travellers practices on them than with
any other class Of travel Some commercial
travellers seem to be in eahoot with the scalpers.
One general passenger agent states that most of
the unused tickets which the scalpers get hold
Of are through commercial travellers, who buy
them from passengers on trains Then. IRE
quently, passes and partially-used 100Omle
tickets, are to be found sale at ticketscalping
offices, not brokers Offices. as brokers are
building MP for themselves an excellent
reputation by reporting to road when
any of its passes, 1000-mile tickets or special
tickets are offered them which bear evidence of
being an effort to defraud the railroad company.
The general passenger agent referred to, said,
that too many of the commercial travellers had
as their motto, anything to beat a railroad"
Cases had been brought to his attention where
they had purchased tickets of scalpers by order
of the house which employed them, and other
cases where the commercial traveller had pur-
chased trip tickets of scalpers at reduced rate,
and then charged full fare to the house for which
they travelled He mentioned . case of recent
occurrence where an indianapolis commercial
man passed 500 pounds of baggage over one of
the roads, claiming that he was an advance
agent of theatrical troupe He said seldom
day passed that he did not hear of some small
trick resorted to by commercial man, and
they all tended to create a prejudice
in the minds of general passenger agents. He
then mentioned South Meridianstreet mer
chant who, in 1884, let three men, at about as
many different times travel on a thousand mile
ticket issued to the merchant individually. In
each case the men were not connected with the
store, and would have paid full fare but for this
dishonorable action on the part of the wholesale
merchant. He added, there are many very hon
orable men among commercial travellers, whom
the general passenger agents would like to favor,
as far as possible, but they suffered through the
wrong doings of their brethren, and until com
mercial travellers showed disposition to act
squarely with the railroads general passenger
agents would not change their policy toward
them

Questionable Fl0wers.'

Wick, the celebrated florist, has
these sensible remarks in reference to
fashionable fowers:'' Of all person
al ornaments flowers are the most
precious-far too valuable and ever
lasting to be spoken of IN the same
breath with the productions of the
jeweler or the milliner, and yet we
are told that orchids are the fashionable
bridal bouquets, because some one or
two daughters of millionaries carry
them. Very often nothing less grace
full or more inappropriate could be
chosen. The idea with many seems to
be simply to find the most rare and
unique species of natural flowers, in
dependent of beauty; if they cost
much and are rare, that is quite suf-
fcient. The overstrained effort always
betrays itself, and orchids were never
yet more highly valued by people of
refined tastes than were the wild vio-
let, or the hedge rose. No Chaucer,
no Herrick, no Wordsworth, has sung
of the orchids as they have sung of
daisies, of daffodils, or of the modest
snowdrop, but they have often been
exhibited as the Haunting decorations
of those who have no higher apprecia-
tion of them than that they were cost
ly and so to some extent the ensign ol
wealth. What pity it is that any
one class of flowers should become
fashionable, just as if all flowers were
not beautiful in their own way, and
far above the mere chattering patron
age of any partic ular set.
