tience with the hesitancy and trembling con
servatism with which some of our best men
deal with this question"
So says the Western Christian Advocate re-
speeding the treatment of the liquor ques
ton. 1t must distress our esteemed contem-
porary dreadfully to notice the hesitancy and
trembling conservatism with which God deals
with sin and evil in this world. Our good
friends life must be made dreadful burden
by the Conservatism of the Almighty.

POWDERLY AND THE KNIGHTS.

The indications are that the influence Of Mr..
Powderly With the Knights of Labor is at an
end. IF this be SO, that organization is to be
commiserated. Mr.. Powderly was the strong
est man in it. Above all others he was better
able to give them standing in the respect of
the world at large, one they cannot have with
any other leader that has yet shown his hand
in regulating the business of the country and
in attempting to get the rights Of the work
ingmen respected. He was man they could
not afford to spare, and it was fatal blunder
when he was sent to the rear Those chosen
in his stead to lead the Knights may proceed
with more aggressive campaign, but that is
not saying that it will prove successful.
There must be something more than
mere numerical force in this movement.
Unless it can command the support and
confidence of the people there is no need of
trying to keep it up. There is only one way
to preserve its integrity and to make it sue
cess, and that is by keeping within the bounds
of the law, and by respecting the rights Of
all, so that the members may be consist
emit when they demand that they shall be ac-
corded their rights. Powderly was a man
who had the foresight to see that this was the
only way that the Knights could ever hope to
perpetuate and strengthen their organization.
1t could not be said of him that he was the
enemy Of law and order. It was through him
moro than any other man prominent in the
organization that the Knights were steered
clear of alliance with Socialists and Anarch-
lists. A less level head, less steady hand
would not have been able to have done this
thing The Knights will have occasion to
regret that they ever set him aside to give
place to another with more push in him.
Only the most conservative management
can now avail to keep them from plunging
into excuses that will result in the disinte-
grafton of the order within a year or two.
The men who give character to the Knights
of Labor are not going to be blindly led into
open violation of the laws of the land They
may temporarily be induced to commit ex
cesses, but the delusion cannot be maintained,
and the result will be that they will withdraw
from it. Wisely directed, the Knights of
Labor would be capable of doing incalculable
good to the workingmen Of this country. But
let unwise councils prevail, and the end is
not far off, and the condition of the work
ingmen will be worse than before. Not that
the exactions will be severer, but that those
actively engaged in the incorporate agitations
will be the poorer through the time lost in
them. 1t is a pity that Mr.. Powderly was not
retained at the head of this organization. 1t
needed him thousand fold more than he
needed 1t.

ADvERTING to the policy of the new
Governor of Utah, Governor West, in
contrast with that of his predecessor Gov
srnor Murray, the New York Herald says:
sit is already manifest that in the struggle of
the United States to enforce federal law in
Utah the federal government has been weak
ened by the change" The Herald is hardly
spring chicken enough not to know that the
removal of Governor Murray was due to
Mormon influences, and it certainly must
know that the same influence has practically
suspended the execution of the Edmunds
law, and has diverted the efforts of the House
Of Representatives in the direction Of a con-
stitutional amendment in order to give the
coup de grace to the movement that under
the lead of the Republican Senate and former
Republican administration. bid fair to kill the
Mormon deyiltry. No wonder Salt Lake was
illuminated when Grover Cleveland was de-
Shared elected.

NO Joke In IT.

The incarceration in the penitentiary Of
Jaehne, the New York alderman. and Budden-
sick, the builder of mud houses, serves as
the text for facetious remarks and fippant
paragraphs in newspaper columns. Humor-
Gus comments are made concerning the cut Of
their hair, the fit of their striped garments.
while the fact that one Of these men is set to
preparing laundry work and the other will
learn to make bread is provocative of great
hiIarity. These remarks are repetition of
those INDUCED in after the conviction of
Ward and Fish. This method of treat
ing the affair may be an effective
one, and may assist to warn others
against pursuing a criminal course; but, as
matter of fact, the humor connected with the
Imprisonment of these men is not visible to
every eye. The justice of their punishment
is unquestionable. 1t was time that check
should be put upon municipal corruption and
upon the practices of which Buddensiek and
unprincipled contractors like him were guilty.
That they were convicted Of their crimes is a
matter for congratulation upon the part of the
public; but it must be admitted that the pen
atty inflicted upon these men, while none too
severe, means far more to them and is a more
impressive warning to others of their kind
than would be the same term of
imprisonment to an ordinary thief
or burglar, and to their class. The sending of
an alderman or banker to the penitentiary
may have its humorous aspects, but the serious
side rather overshadows the fun Of the thing
to most persons Ten years within the walls
of prison is a discipline and chastisement hard
to be endured by any man who loves his lib
erty, but to one who has been used to The re-
fnements and luxuries of life as well as free
dom. the deprivation and suffering must be
infinitely greater than to one who comes from
the slums, as the majority of convicts do.
Soft touches, dainty food, time for idle
enjoyment are not essential to the
preservation of life, but to a man
who has been accustomed to ease and to the
best the world can afford the change to hard
labor and prison fare is an infiction which an
other, used to the hard side of life to want
and to hunger, can hardly realize. In addi-
ton to this, men of this type while no less

THE New York Star SAYS:

"There have been a hundred speeches made
on home rule in New England better than Mr.
Blaines, because they have been made by able
men who have devoted their lives to the cause
of Ireland. We do not mean to belittle Mr.
Blaine's performance. AS we have said, he
made good speech. It will be of more bene-
fit, perhaps to the national party than many
better speeches have been, because it will
show Mr. John Walter, Lord Salisbury, Mr.
Chamberlain and others of Mr.. Gladstone's
opponents, that our prominent native public
men sympathize with Mr.. Parnell, and that it
is natural for the citizens of the United States
to take sides with people who are struggling
for the right to govern themselves. The
Wing Radical coalition have asserted
that the Irish movement in this country has
been started and kept going by noisy Irish
Americans Therefore, when leader like
Mr. Blaine speaks earnestly and enthusiastic-
ally for the cause, it must be seen that this
assertion is untrue, and that the whole force
of public opinion on this side of the water is
with the Irish Nationalist"

picture Of that lady in all that have been

would reflect credit upon her. The picture
business, as INDUCED in by the press, is in the
nature of huge burlesque, and none of the
victims care to submit to it, hence the desper-
ate attempts of all to escape such an infection
by hiding their photographs. This, however,
does not discourage that portion of the press
given to it, which proceeds to take the first

partisan assertion. We challenge any de-
fender of the administration to specify a
single point wherein the public service has
been benefited since Mr. Cleveland's inaugur-
alton, while it is notorious that in many direc-
tions there have been scandals and the gravest
ineficency. Take the mail service as an ex-

THE Christian Union is not pleased with
some evidences of the Indian policy of this
administration. 1t declares the removal of
Mr.. William FL. Lyon from the Board of In
dian Commissioners very great mistake
for which not the slightest reason has been
assigned, and says:
His pronounced ability as a merchant, his
wise, rare judgment, his skill in selection of
merchandise. and his unimpeachablei integrity,
admirably fitted him for the position of chair
man of the purchasing committee. He has
given freely many months of service to its
mercantile department, and a half million
dollars would not cover the sum saved by the
government through his wise, firm admins
tration. The government could not have en-
ployed such talent as his at less compensa-
ton than $40, 1000 per annum. Mr. Lyon has
stood in the way of host of contractors, who
by his knowledge and skill have been shut
away from the opportunities they once en-
joyed of securing large profit from the gov
eminent. Whether they have secured his re-
moval we can not tell.

suffered under Mr.. Clevelands administra-
ton, but every branch Of the public service

SECRETARY MANNING, who wants so badly
to resign, has done a wonderful work since he
has had control of the federal Treasury. He
has introduced public statement that is SO
complex that everybody wonders what it
means. If he has done anything else worthy
of note, it has escaped attention. And yet he
is so much better than it was feared any Dem
ocrat would be that there is universal hope
that he will be able to retain his place.

lacking in conscience and right principles
than their coarser-fbred associates, are more
sensitive to public criticism. Remorse may
not move, them but shame does; and no one
will question that Fish, and Ward, and Bud

which they have involved themselves
and their families than does Herr
Most, the halfcivilized creature who
goes to prison with them The latter will
rage over his punishment and denounce all
who were concerned with it, but will come out
at the end of his term without having expe-
rienced moments regret for his actions or
sense of shame. For the others life has been
ruined They can never again look the world
squarely in the face and must forever live
under the shadow Of their own iniquity.
Corruption in high places has not always been
treated with the same legal justice which it
deserved, but now that a turn has been taken
in judicial circles and in public sentiment
concerning it, the gentlemen of refined habits
but of loose moral principles will take due
warning. The danger Of going to prison for
accepting bride or for "crookedness" that
has hitherto been regarded with lenience
will deter many a man from such acts who
would be far less alarmed at the prospect were
he a thief of low degree. Going to prison is
IN the nature of joke to the Mosts, but to
the Wards, and Buddensieks, and Jaehnes it
is little better than death.

THE decision Of Judges Pardee and Billings
in the telephone suit at New Orleans covers
all the points, or at least the principal ones,
relied on by the government in the suit to
annul the Bell patents The evidence of al
legged fraud on Bells part in the obtaining of
his patent was before the court, including the
celebrated or notorious affidavit of the exam
iner, Wilbur, and upon this the court rules at
length, saying:
''The fact that Bells invention certainly
dates from Jan. 20, 1876, and that it covers
speaking telephone, transmitting articulate
speech by means of an undulatory, oscilla tory
or vibratory current of electricity. renders it
unnecessary to pass upon the evidence rulat-
ing to the tergiversations and claims of Gray,
the alleged frauds of Bell in advancing his ap.
plication for patent the illegal conduct and
conflicting statements of examiner Wilbur,
and many alleged vices and Irregularities the
evidence of which forms the bulk of the
record, and apparently the main defense in
the case.

all the evidence we have found nothing

THE conviction of Brooks, the assassin Of
his travelling companion, Preller, in the
Southern Hotel at ST. Louis was a triumph
Of justice that is very encouraging to the
public. So long time had elapsed since the
murder was committed, and there had been
manifested such an interest in the murderer,
that it began to look as though he would es-
cape his deserts. He seemed of the same
opinion, and acted as though his trial was a
mere form preliminary to his acquittal. On
the way back from PARKWAY Auckland, whittier
he had fed to escape the clutches of the law,
he maintained the bravest demeanor, and
acted as if there was not the least danger Of his
liberty being seriously interfered with. And
then, when the serious business of his formal
trial began, he kept up that spirit of bravado
that he evidently hoped would serve him a
good turn in influencing the court and jury.
He was probably impressed with the belief
that justice was very uncertain in this coun
try, and that the crime of murder was very
lightly dealt with, as, unfortunately, it too
often is. But it develops that he is doomed
to disappointment, and it is to be hoped that
justice will not now miscarry by interfering
with the execution of the just sentence pro-
nounced against him. If ever man richly
deserved hanging for the crime Of murder,
that man is Hugh NJ Brooks, who travelled
under the alias of H. NJ. Lenox- Maxwell, and
who, while enjoying the fellowship and -nelp
of ACKNOWLEDGING, took his life and
robbed the remains of the money there was
on them. Worse, still, after the murder had
been discovered and he had been apprehended,
he sought to cover the memory of his victim
with shame in order to save his own life.
American justice will not go amiss in hanging
this fellow.
