That the Sunday question is not yet settled
is certainly not due to lack of discussion on the
subject. 1t was argued yesterday at length by
the Sunday Observance Association and by
several well-known clergymen. The drift OF
sentiment was clearly against what is known as
a more liberal Sunday. 1t will be noted, how
ever. that the opening of museums and libraries
was opposed mainly on the ground that II
would lead to open theatres and other places Of
amusement.
Some of the organization problems which
the Republican County Committee purpose to
wrestle with are not easy of solution; but there
is no easily suggested reason why the district
ASSOCIATIONS should not be allowed TO add to
their membership, under proper conditions, on
other days than those formally fixed for enrol
ments This would serve to keep up interest
in the associations the year round. At present
there is not much life IN the organizations
except as election day approaches.
What a man will have to pay for the roof over
his family's head after May first. il as yet en-
tirely undecided. Rents for houses and flats
are not set, usually, until the cost OF Office and
business places has been settled. There is no
reason to suppose, however, that rents of any
kind will come down in 1856. Real estate
brokers say they will 90 up-but, then, real es-
tate brokers at this time of year are not moved
bv their interests to take discOuraging view
of the renting prospects. Probably if rents re-
main the same as for 1885 tenants will be en-
tirely satisfied.
The usual Sunday brawlingresulte yesterday
in one murder at least. Strange as it may
seem, the murderer and his victim were not
members of the Italian colony but two young
machinists who auareed, fought, and then
one was stabbed by the other. They had been
drinking in several low rum shops and the
final ARRAY occurred in another of these vie
nlaces. Ii will be noted by the Excise and Police
Boards, we hope, when this sad case Is being
tried, that the testimony shows violations OF
the Excise laws-all the rum shops visited 10y
the carousing crowd sold liquor regardless of
the fact that it was Sunday. Half a dozen
places should be deprived of their licenses in
consequence of this crime.
The PYobibitionists of Kansas have met with
serious difficulty, not likely TO add to the
poonlarity of their cause 1t is in the shape of
a decision in the United States Circuit Court
that Kansas must pay for all property rendered
useless by the prOhIbitory law. The suit
which brought down this avalanche upon the
heads OF the extreme temperance people WIS
begun by a brewer in Lawrence, who had his
brewery stopped by the authorities when the
law was passed. The situation is made the
more serious by the belief that not only must
brewers and distllers " no have been interfered
with be paid, but that the owners of vine
yards even must be recompensed too 1t is
easily seen that if this decision Is confirmed by
the Supreme Court the prospect OF meeting all
these obligations in cash will not be popular.
The concern and anxiety of the Hon. George
d. Wise. Representative from Virginia, for the
Union soldiers are highly commeudable, and a
great credit of course, to an ex-COnfederate
officer But we wish that these lovely feelings
had deep enough grip on Captain Wises soul
to keep him from telling any untruths about
these same veterans. He said in his speech i'll
the House last week that the veteran Lyons,
VINO was recently dismissed from the Norfolk
Maryland. after twenty three years OF service,
was discharged on account of "beastly intoxi-
sati0nn Unfortunately for Captain Wise, this
