JESSE JAMES has found champion Of his
fair fame in quite an unexpected and exalted
quarter. To the petition made in behalf of
Ex-Governor Crittenden, of Missouri, for a
foreign appointment, the President is repre-
sented as replying that by no means could he
ever consider the name of Governor .Crit.en-
den in connection with any appointment
which he had to make, alleging as reason
the fact that in the East it was the general
impression that Crittenden had conspired
with the Ford boys to assassinate Jesse James,
and that any recognition of the Ex-Governor
would be exceedingly unpopular. The Jour-
nal at the time lamented the death of this
brilliant Democrat; but it does seem that
enough time has elapsed to allow Missouri to
lay off the habiliments Of mourning. Proba-
bly, if Frank James were to ask an appoint
ment of the kind he would receive recogni-
ton, as partial atonement for the injuries
and injustice he has 80 nobly and so patiently
submitted to. Verify, Democratic ideas of
reform are peculiar.

The chess contest having brought out the
statement that chess playing tends to stimu-
late and conserve the mental powers, it was
to be expected that the game would achieve
great popularity in would-be intellectual cir
cles. That the Gloom" has already begun is
shown by the announcement that Miss Maud
Gardner, chess enthusiast, will give morning
lessons in the fascinating and mind-strength-
ening pursuit to such persons as wish to avail
themselves of this means of improvement.

WATCHING THE SNOW FALLING.
When seated alone at my window,
Watching the snow come down.
Throwing its feecy mantle
Over the busy town;
watching the snowfakes whirling
Round chimney pots and spires,
Circling eddying, whirng,
With an eye that never tires,
And filled with poetic fancies
That the soulful scene inspiress
How it doth make my bosom
With angry feelings glow
To hear my wife shout, Hi! come down,
And shovel off the snowi"

THE cause of prohibition has gained another
victory before the United States Court The
case was of saloon-keeper who had been en-
joined by one of the Kansas courts from main
tanning nuisance. The case was removed to
the United States Court, sitter having been
decided against him in all the State courts.
The ground Of the removal was that, being a
citizen of a State, he was made by the Con.
stitution q citizen of the United States, and
the Constitution said: mo State shall make
or enforce any law which shall abridge the
privileges or immunities Of citizens Of the
United States or deprive any person Of Life.

The New York committee on the Grant
monument fund protest that all is working
harmoniously 80 far as the committee is con-
cerned, and that there is no ill-feeling or mis-.
understanding between the members. They
say they are waiting only until a bill can be
passed by the Legislature incorporating the
committee, when the work Of raising the fund
will be vigorously prosecuted. The Legisla-
ture should afford the needed aid as soon as
possible.

should defy authority which has been
exercised without question by both houses Of
Congress since the foundation of the govern
ment.
1t cannot matter what the motive in asking
this may be. 1t may be simply that of max
ing party capital, or it may be for the con-
servation Of the highest public interests. The
body asking it is the sole judge of that SO far
as it is concerned, and the public will, or may,
judge of the matter in harmony with individ-
ual political bias. We may think the Potter
inquiry merely one for party buncombe; or
the Warner inquiry into the conduct of the
Pension Office; but our opinion does not mill

the House to call for all papers and documents

HAVING disposed of the senatorial matter,
the Ohio Legislature is settling down to the
regular business Of the session, part of which
is, of course, consideration of the temper
ance problem. One member, at least, does
not contemplate any compromise with the
spirituous enemy, or any halfway measures
toward circumventing his wiles. A provision
of the bill which this member will introduce
reads as follows:
"Every man who desires to become an
habitual drinker must go before probate
judge and obtain permit, on payment of fifty
cents, which will entitle him to purchase
whisky at saloons The bill makes it a pun
ishable ofense for saloon keeper to sell liquor
to person not holding such permit"
The CONSERVATION of the 'sly drinker' over
the enactment of such a law can but dimly be
imagined. To procure permit, record of
which must be open to the inspection of every
one who chooses to examine the books of the
court, will be to court the publicity which he
has Stunned, and will advertise his cherished
weakness to family and friends, from whom
he fondly believes that he has concealed it. 1t
is to be feared, also, that the securing of a
permit to indulge in his usual habits would
injure the standing Of many pious brother
who now poses in religious and temperance
organizations-sucht things are known-as one
without guile. We venture the prediction
that so much influence will be brought to bear
upon the Ohio legislators that the measure
however strongly their own inclinations may
favor it, will not become law
