Speech Before Ohio General Assembly.
There is another topic, non-partisan in char

party politics. The temperance movement is
now attracting the attention of every State in
the Union. N~ evils growing out of the unre-

liquors ar 'owledged by all good citizens.
How far traffic should be restrained, or
regulated. >fohibted is not, and ought not to
be made, for political parties,
from their very nature, must be divided upon
these questions. The Prohibition party, as it is
called, is not represented by single member in
the General Assembly, and does not embrace
1.-THE OF the people in the two great parties who
believe in wise laws to regulate or restrain the
traffic, and differ only as to the best measures
that can be adopted for that purpose. The Con-
stituton of Ohio restraints the Legislature only
IN prohibiting the passage of alicense law but the
provision of the Constitution has been frequently
made the subject of judicial decision and care
full examination of these decisions shows that
there is open to the General Assembly almost
every form of legislation which, by the expert
ence of other States, has been found most ben
efcial in restraining the evils of the traffic.
among which are tax laws, local-option laws.
laws restraining sales to minors and other per-
sons under liabilities, and laws making LIQUOR
sellers responsible for injuries done by their
traffic. Surely from among these various reme-
dies some may be adopted that will lessen the

will eat or drink, or wear. On this subject as
we'll as all others, moderation and experience are
the best guides for human legislation. Partisan
divisions weaken and destroy the best means
that can be devised for no law of this kind can
be enforced unless by the acquiesceace of the
great body of the people, including large por-
tons of both political parties.

James w. Pollard a reputable citizen living

accustomed to keep bucket of water; that
Tuesday night the bucket, freshly filed, was
placed upon the stand about o'clock, and d.
recry afterward, while he and his wife sat before
their blazing CRATE, some invisible power lifted
the bucket and placed it on the carpet in the
center OF the room and then tilted it over spill

picked up the bucket went 20 the we'll, refilled
it and returned it to its place on the table, but
had not more than reseated himself when the
same invisible power lifted the bucket and again
tilted it over in the center of the floor. Again
Mr.. Pollard took the bucket to the we'll and re-
filed 1t and the third time placed it upon the
table and resumed his seat when the bucket
was again lifted from the stand table, passed be-
tween Mr.. and Mrs Pollard and the crate, thence
back to the center OF the floor and again tilted
over. Mr.. Pollard would have again reflled the
bucket, but his wife objected, as there was al
ready more water on the floor than was regarded
as comfortable Wednesday evening, about the
same hour. the bucket was filed and placed as
usual on the table. but before he could take his
seat it was again lifted from the table to the
center of the room, where it was immediately
tilted over. Mr.. Pollard states that the forego-

A Bad Outlook for the Boy.
Rockville Tribune.

A boy was born in Rockville this week whose
parents can leave him nothing but health and
two hands for labor. When that boy becomes
man every acre of good land in this State will be-
worth over 500, and he cannot save $75 from 8
years labor; hence, farm owner he can never
be. Every branch of production will be run by
stock companies. so he cannot be an independent
worker. Merchandising will be so concentrated
by big firms with branch establishments, that
he cannot start with less than 500. C00--more
than the net earnings of seven ife-times The
public lands will have been exhausted; the mines
will be in the hands of big companies; ten thou

Decisions Affecting Railways.

CHICAGO, JAM 15.-Judge Gresham gave de-
cision yesterday in the case Of the Pullman

tracted with the Pullman company for 100 re-
frigerator cars. Fowler refused to accept them.
The cars remain at Pullman in the hands of q
receiver. The decree finds that Fowler owes the
Pullman company $61. SIG. and orders that the
cars be sold to satisfy the decree by Master in
Chancery Bishop, within ten days. at the Illinois
Central railroad station in Pullman.
Judge Gresham also decided the suit of the
First National Bank against the Chicago, Mil
waukee Sc ST. Paul railroad in favor of the
plaintiffs. By this decision the company will
have to pay to the bank the sum Of 500, 155. and
Sc, 900, which are the amounts of judgment
executions against the Chicago & Pacific rail-
road.

where be provided with some device that will at
least take care of it's own momentum" Marvin
Hughitt, of the Chicago & Northwestern has
fitted out forty of its freight engines with auto
matte brakes, as an experiment. and he is con-
ylDced that In less than FIVE years every freight
train In the country will be similarly equipped.
The first road to secure such an equipment was
the Denver q Rio Grande. Its tremendous
grades made some other device than hand brakes
a necessity. 1t was found by tests on levels
that the automatic brakes were a good thing on
all grades.
Considerable interest is shown as to the future
of the portion of the l.. p. e. c. road lying between
indianapolis and Peru. There is general de-
sire that the bondholders of the northern d.
vision, lying between Peru and LaPorte should
secure the road and make it again local road,
instead of division of the Wabash system.
Yet it is questionable IL the opportunity for the
g., G. a. i. bondholders 10 secure control of the
property is not gone by. On the seventy three
miles of road lying between indianapolis and
Peru rests S215,000 of first mortgage, or orig
