The difference between law which pub.
lie sentiment will support and one which is
not lhus sustained is illustrated by contrast
ing the experience of Iowa under prohibit
ton with that ofIllinois under n high. license
law. A correspondent of the Chicago Id
rance, living in the city of Quincy, H., thus
sums up its workings:
A prohbitory law in city like this
would not be sustained by public opinion,
and would be dead letter, and mean free
liquor. Under our present high.license law
the revenue has increased $4,000. The
number o: saloons has been reduced from
l46 to 3d. The arrests for drunkenness
have diminished SO per cent. There is less
liquor drunk here than before the high
license law was adopted. l think I can
truthfully add that the law is regarded by
the best friends of temperance as the best
law we have ever had.

Ir IS said in some quarters that owing
to the listlessness and dissatisfaction preva
lent among the democrats of Virginia, in
consequence of the policy of tho administra-
ton, Gen. Mahone's chances for succeeding
himself in the L. s. Senate have improved
considerably, and that whereas before the
policy referred to was manifested his hopes
of continued political life had been aban-
doned, they have now revived. Vain hopes!
To say that the dissatisfaction alluded 10
does not exist, TO some extent at least,
would be TO deny what every body knows
is true But still the objection to Gen. Ma
hone, as the primeval cause of all Of Vir-
ginia's present woes, is so great among all the
right thinking people of his State, of both
political parties, that it would BIO sufficient
to prevent his reelection to the Senate were
the democratic dissatisfaction with the adj
ministration ten times greater than it is.
There would be some danger to the Virginia
democracy were the leader of the opposition
a high toned republican, i'll favor of an hon.
orable settlement of the State debt; but they
are safe as long as the man who made repu-
diation possible, and whose boss-ship was
positively outrageous, shall retain COM
mani of the opposition forces.

ALEX ANDRIA.
TUESDAY EVENING, APRIL Is.

MIR. REAGAN, in his speech IN the =. ..
House of Representatives yesterday, IN OPP
nostion to the resolution for the appoint
ment of committee to investigate the LABOR
tropbles in the Southwest, said that Con
press had no more right to regulate contracts
between railroad companies and their en-
ployees than those between the same COM
panies and their butchers and grocers.
And he only said what every reasonable
man. who believes in personal freedom,
knows is true. To make valid contract
there must be two parties, both OF Whom
shall be free to accept or reject any OF the
terms that may be proposed before it Is sign
ed. In contracts between railroad en-
ployees and railroad companies, the former,
as free men in free country, have the same
right to accept or reject terms that the
companies have, and that they, the en-
ployees, have in making contracts with their
own cooks and washerwomen, or any body
with whom they may have dealings; and
the possession of that right is their greatest
security, and should be priced above all
things. With an arbitration commission,
such as provided by the O'Nell bill, or the
Congressional committee as provided by
the resolution TO which Mr.. Reagan objects,
what are the laborers to hope for in view OF
the previous actions of similar commissions
and committees? Isn't it we'll known that
the railroad influence, by the immense
means at its command, dominates Con.
eressional legislation, where that influence
has to be exerted upon four hundred lndl-
viduals, and even the Supreme Court OF the
United States? What chance for justice,
then, would railroad employees have II they
relinquished the right to make their own
contracts, and entrusted it to board Of three
commissioners, or to committee OF seven
members of the U. S. House of Representa-
lives? Why, the railroads have been en-
riched by fraudulent grants of land; and II
it be impossible to restore an acre Of that
land to the people by Congress, the depart
ments, or the courts, as experience proves
it to be, how can railroad laborcr expect
Justice at such hands? Tho commissioners
and the committees and the arbitrators, and
their secretaries and clerks, will draw large
salaries, but there all the benefits Of the re-
cent Congressional legislation upon the labor
question will end. The railroad laborers,
however, as we'll as all the other laborers in
the country, will be taxed on the necesss
RIGS of life to pay the large salaries referred
