IT is probable that another of
Sparks decisions will be set aside.
The Washington Territory Legisla-
ture, some years ago. passed a law
providing for the leasing of the six.
teenth and thirty.sixth sections of
land in the Territory, which was sat
aside for school purposes. Nearly
the entire body Of school lands in
the Territory was leased and put un.
der cultivation, and much of it was
fenced. The recent fence law en-
acted by Congress forbids the fsnc-
ing OF public lands. Sparks holds
that school lands in Washington
Territory are still part of the public
domain, and that occupants of them
who put fences about them are tres
passers and liable to prosecution.
He has ordered suits to be brought
against a number Of persons who
occupy these lands under tho lease
provided for by the Washington
Territory Legislature. The case
was presented to Assistant Secretary
Jenks to-day. who said that Sparks's
ruling was improper. jerks said
the matter would be Investigated at
once,

A Sober Head.

The Commander-in.C Chief of the
Knights of Labor is safe and sound
on the temperance question. Mr..
Powderly says:
The temperance question is an
important one, and l sometimes
think it is the main issue. l will en-
join my successor, if he values the
future success of our order, to shut
the doors with triple bars sg.inst
the admission of the liquor dealers
His path and that of the honest, in
dustrious workman lie in opposite
directions. The rumseller who
seeks admission into labor society
does so with the object that he may
entice its members into his saloon
after tho meetings close. No quss-
tion of interest to labor has ever
been satisfactorily settled over a bar
in O rum.hole. No workingman
ever drank a glass of rum who did
not rob his family of the price OF it.
and in go doing committed q double
crime, murder and theft. He steals
from his family the means Of sus
tenance he has earned for them. In
the whole English language, I can
find no word that strikes more ter.
ror to my soul than the one word, =,
"Rum." Its life on earth has been
one of ruin to the hopes of youth
aud the peace of old age. 1t has
robbed childhood Of its delights.
1t has stolen the laugh from the lips
of innocence, the bloom from tho
cheeks of manhood. 1t has touched
the heart of old Age like the tip of a
poisoned arrow. It's sound, as it
gurgles from the neck of bottle,
echoes through q desolate house.

volume is the last book written by the
world famous John B. Cough, and was
completed by him just previous to

from a drunkurd's grave, how for
seven wears he stood amid the horror
OF deiirium tire mems, an abjeCJ slave 70

ences OF royalty and fashion, spoke in
state prisons, ja.is and poor houses and
all were moved by the fearful reality
OF his theme. In his library may b. seen

of his lie aud labOrs than any mOnu-
meut of bronze or drble-c0ntainin

thousand men and women who were
induced t1 sign the pledge through his
personal Efforts. To give some of
those thrilling life histories, 10 depict

aim Of the author. The book is en-
dorsed by the press and by emil

He fought shy at first and wanted information
himself, but finally said;
1T looks very BIaineish. There does not

vote and the labor vote as no other man. The
tide i'll his favor in the party seems to be
stronger than ever. The failure of the Cleve-

The Administration has gone all to pieces since
Manning was taken sick. There is no Admin
istration party in the South OF anywhere else to
hold votes away from Mr.. Blaine in the National
Convention. He will get large vote from the
South,an he will get very many more votes from
Ncw-York State than ever before for the same
reason. The only thing have thought might
help the Democrats was that good times might
come along about 1883. and good times always
help the party in power. The fact that Con-
%reSS has rejected the Presidents advice in
financial matters will fix that point. If times
get better on the present plan of finance it cam
