GENERAL II. &. SANFORD, who has been
very active In matters connected with the
Congo free state aud claims credit for 60
curing i.s recognition from our govern
ment, cannot restrain his impotence over
the refusal OF our government To rstify the
neutrality treaty. He says that Foreigners
sscribe our delay to inability to un1Drstand
the French Of the treaty rather than to un-
willingness to complete q good work bo.
gun by Republican administration. This
Is decidedly the most childish and weak
method OF argument that could be applied
TO the cNse. That any intelligent foreigner
should be capable OF such fiat specimen
OF wit, II II IL Intended for wit, is be.
yond belief and II General Sanford Is dis.

general swells with patriotic pride because
our government startled Europs by recog.
mixing the nsg OF the International associs-
ton, and he wants US to continue to stsrtle
enete monarchies by booming things In the
Congo. But inasmuch ss said recognition
has only been followed by vast increase
OF tho whisky trade and rapid spread Of
Mohamre edanism In that region, while
Stanley has passed up the river with an
armed force to do something for somebody
In Central Africa In view OF these facts
and the mystery surrounding the last

government seems well advised. General

LIceusc to Sell LIqusr.

An important issue has been framed
IN Pbiladelphls for the testing of the
hieh license act. Wallace @. Rauden.

f0r license under the new law. lie com.
Piled with all the requirements OF the
new enactment, answered all questions
Of the license court with apparent salts
faction, paid for his advertisement Of ap-
plication, presented bondsmen Of unques-
toned sufIiciency, was qualified to the
statement that he had never sold on Sun.
day, and had In al respects lived In obe-
dlence to the license laws Of the common
wealth. There were no remonstrances
fied against him, but the license court
refused bis application without assigning
any reason for % doing.
There could not be q better case to test
the question whether the judges have ab-
eolute discretion for refusing liquor
licenses. In the opinion OF this journal
the act Of May ls, 1887, was Intended to
~ regulation Of the liquor business,
not prohibition thereof. Therefore,
thoso who complied with the liquor
regulations, and against whom no ques.
tion was raised were entitled to licenses as
4 3 matter Of course. In any other view
Z Of the case an arbitrary power is en-
trusted to the judges, which 1t Is no. be-
lieved the law intended to give. The In.
tent Of statute is gathered from It's title
end the act Of May 13, 1887, is entitled
4 "A act " to restrain and regulate the sale
~ liquors. There Is no mention Of
4 prohibition.
lt IL true that in the power to grant
llce1ses delegated to the court OF quarter
sessions, the expression occurs may be
granted, !" but it Is well known principle
y OF law that may" means "must" when
third persons or the public have an inter.
- in having the act done which is
authorized by such permissive language.
Constituting the whole act together, the
Inference Is conclusive that where the
license regulations have been In all re.
apects complied with, there is no judicial
discretion permissible In the grant Of a
license, unless the place be unnecessary
\ Tor the public, or the applicant be an un-
dt person ; two points on which no pub.

NAs either assigned as the reason for the

Judges that 1t should DO exercised upon

be whether money at interest must

secured; whether mortgage given by a
