of interest. The main contention Of the speak
ers was that temperance reform could only DC
achieved by a National Prohibition party; but
they failed to show how Prohibition RTesi-
dent or a Prohibition Congress would deal with
n question belonging exclusively to State 1urls-
diction. The platforms adopted at Chicago
and st. Louis came in for a good deal of crit
icism of the destructive order Perhaps the
most significant thing said was the indirect as

President. that the enfIanchisemcnt of the ig-

The highest court in this State has passed
upon the legality of the boycott as applied to
non-union laborer, and holds that no organ
ization has right to insist on the discharge OF
an Objectionable workman or prevent him from
obtaining work elsewhere. This is whole
some and satisfactory decision. Five members
of the Knights of Labor were arrested on
charge of conspiracy in the case of HART,
shoemaker who refused to join in strike
whose discharge they secured, and whom they
prevented from getting work in other shops
The accused men secured writs of habeas cor
pus Justice Barrett and the General Term Of
the Supreme Court in turn dismissed the writs,
and these two decisions have been confirmed
by the Court of Appeals The five defendants
will soon be brought to trial. Such an ex-
ample should be made of them as will put an
end to this species of boycotting. In similar
case in California, recently, where damages
were sought by the victim Of a like conspiracy,
it was held by the Judge that there was no
ground of action.

| No reference to the labors of the Republican

\ just been accomplishment regret to say with
| less literary skill than usual-through the me-
dunn of a Boston dispatch. This year the first
view of the sea serpent has been had by Cap
tain Traut and Chief Officer Muir, of the Le-

Of the creature as taken from these gallant sea-
men, however reads rather tamely. Mr. Muir

In all the best class of sea serpent visions
the monster is represented as rearing proudly

decorated with eyes which ought to be at least
the size of cheese-platcs, and further adorned
according to the taste and discretion of tho

BID NEVS ECON STANLEY.

The news from Stanley while alarming is
vague and indecisive. The tidings of disaster
are derived from deserters who may be both
cowardly and treacherous. They would nat
urally be disposed to magnify the losses of the
expedition and to represent the explorers po-
sition as desperate and critical. The contra
dictory and unintelligible accounts which they
have carried to Major Barttelots camp cannot
be free from exaggeration. In order to justify
their own conduct in abandoning the column
they would inevitably put the worst possible
construction upon the facts in their possession
II may be conceded, therefore, that the explor-
er's situation was not so deplorable as they rep
resented it to be when they arrived at Camp
Yambuga; but even with this reservation 1t was
most serious and justified the laborious ell orts
made by Major Barttelot to obtain reinforce
ments and to forward supplies and men with
precptate haste. Unfortunately the dis
tances are so great in the Congo Valley and the
means of transportation so meagre that energy
counts for little. Ward, with the small steamer
at his disposal, could not hope to send more than
fifty men to the Aruwimi. The Stanley, which
left the Pool early in May with large body OF
reinforcements has probably reached the camp
by this time; but it is by no means certain that
Major Barttelot will be able to muster force
sufficiently strong for the emergency. 1t is
stated, however, that Tippoo lib, after mex
plicable delay, started with over 900 men for
the interior about the end of January in order
to carry out his contract with Stanley. APP
parentiy his sincerity and cOnstancy are
doubted, since Major Barttelot and the Congo
State officials consider it necessary to make ex-
traordinmy efforts to effect the rescue of the
explorer
The circumstances as related by the desert
ers point to hostile investment Of the Stan
ley caravan in mountainous district, densely
wooded, 800 miles from the camp. Neither
localities nor dates are given, but it may be in
fesred that the expedition was attacked and
pursued by natives after It had left the Aruwimi
Valley and had penetrated the billy country ly-

Dr. Storrs was thoroughly familiar with his sub

mind that the sum asked for repairs and I'm

The Park is in a great measure In deplorable
condition. 1t has fallen into neglect, not because
of incompetent management, but because OF mad

appropriated now, it is certain to be well and
wisely used The Board of Estimate will make
a mistake if it refuses to adopt a liberal policy

Civil Service reformers do not need 30 90 further
