York Senate is Republican and does
not look kindly upon the Governors
nominations of Democrats to good po-
sitions. 1t does not demand any rea
sons why changes are made, but is very
active in hanging up and rejecting
nominations, seeming to work good
, deal on the theory that because man
is Democrat, is objection enough to
letting him in. One Of his latest nomi-
nations, that Of p. II. Dugro TO be
Commissioner of Emigration, is az

ciety, according to the informant of
the Cleveland Leader, is growing more
and more common. 1t used to be that
only the oldest and homeliest used
enamel upon their faces, and in such
cases it but rarely extended below the
neck. Now many young girls enamel,
and with low.cut dresses they must, to
carry out the illusion, enamel arms and
bust as well as their faces. A sort of
enamel powder is now used which is
rubbed on and polished until the flesh
shows like polished wax. The
illusion is well enough when
maiden has form like that

she is of the lean, scraggy, corn-fed va

HIGH LICENSE.

The proposed bill for the regulation
Of tie liquor traffic in this District
contemplates the imposition of a
license Of 5000 ON wholesale dealers
and $500 on bar-rooms. Such mea-
sure, as long as absolutely prohibitory
legislation is out of the question, is
probably the best that can be devised
1t Is legitimate way of raising reve.
nue., and If the revenues thus raised
are applied to an increase Of the police
force as recommended by Major Dye,
it seems to THE CRITIC that every good
citizen, prohibition or otherwise, on yht
TO be satisfied.
High license in the very nature Of
things has the effect of reducing the
number of dealers by driving a certain
class of them ont of business, on ac-
count of inability to pay the tax. 1t
may work hardship in some cases, for
small establishments are sometimes
conducted as properly as those of
greater pretensions; but 1t will hardly
be denied that the result of high
license will be TO close a large number
Of d sreputable places, and thus more
room will be left for those who wish to
engage in the traffic on decent princi-
pes.
The temperance people are right,
perhaps, in asking that license should
not be granted excepting with the as
sent of majority of the property
holders or residents Immediately inter
ested, but the bill itself is good one,
and with possibly few notifications
can be made to work with much more
satisfaction to all concerned than the
pi esent loose and inefficient system
