Lts CONGRESS- FIRST SESSIOE.
HOUSE.

WASHINGTON, Jan. II.
Mr.. Bacon of New York, chairman of the
committee on manufactures, reported today
preamble and resolution reciting the allega-
tion that certain individuals and corpora
tions engaged in manufacturing or mining, or
dealing in some of the necessities of life,
have combined for the purpose of controll-
ing or curtailing the production or supply Of
the same, thereby increasing their price to
the people, affecting injuriously commerce
between the States and impairing the reve-
nues of the government; and directing the
committee on manufactures to inquire into
the names, number and extent of such alleg-
ed combinations, and all other matters relat-
ing TO the same which may call for legisla-
tion by Congress.
the present consideration of the resolution,
and it was placed upon the calendar
Mr.. Crisp of Georgia called up the con-
tested election case of Thebe against Car
Isle, the pending question being on the resoe
luton of the majority of the committee OF
elections confirming Mr.. Carlisle's title TO
his seat
tion TO reconsider the vote by which the
House Yesterday defeated the resolution pro-
yidng for reopening of the case.
Mr.. Chapman of Michigan asked unanl-
NOUS consent to offer resolution bearing on
the subject. but objection came in the shape
of demands for the regular order. The vote
on the majority resolution resulted yeas,
140; nays, 6. No quorum.
Mr. Crisp, stating that the vote had dis
closed the fact that there was no quorum
present, moved that the House adjourn.
The motion to adjourn was aged to-yeas,
139; nays, 123 strict party vote, and the
HOnSe accordingly adjourned.

CHURCH AND STATE.
Mr.. McCIynn Says the EccIeseaticaI
Machine Traded with Tammany.

NEW YORK, Jan. 70. In an address be-
fore the Anti-Poverty association this even
ing Dr. McGlynn said his quarrel was not
with the Church but with the ecclesiastical
machine of American politics. For the sup
port of Catholic charitable institutions, cor
rupt political bargains had been made, es-
pecially with the Democratic perty, and
more particularly with that ill-smelling
portion of that party "Tammany Hall
A bargain was made with Peter B. Swee-
ney, at the Archbishop's palace, and the
Tammany machine holds its power through
the aid of the ecclesiastical machine, The
Sunday before the recent election, many
pastors exhorted their fiocks to vote for
those who would help the church to get
money for their schools. They were willing
to enter into an alliance with UNANIMOUSLY
corrupt rings. Those who take the VOW of
poverty never suffer real poverty.
1t is very pleasant for the monks and nuns
to have the treasury of New York to rely on.
Because Gov. Cleveland vetoed further ap-
preparation to the Catholic Protectory, he
was fought by the ecleseastical machine in
1884. Cleveland is a wise men and states
mon, but is also learning to become practi-
cal politician. He sent present to the Pope.
The ecclesiastical machine favors authority,
aristocracy and even monarchy, against lib
erty, democracy and republicanism. Public
maintenance of Catholic charity has but be-
gan. If permitted to 60 on it will be a union
of Church and State that will result in the
destruction of both.

The crog Shops What Shall be Done
About Them

10 the EQttOf OF Me fTeSSs
There is now in town a good deal Of feel
ing about the grog shops which infest some
of our streets. / think that there is gener-
al wish that something should be done about
them, but what that something will be many
intelligent men seem to be puzzled to know,
as if there were some inseparable difficulty
in dealing with this evil Of vastly greater
proportions than any other-than all others
from which the community suffers.
The method Of dealing with this matter of
course must depend upon the end to be ac-
complished. II that be to suppress the grog
shops speedily and entirely, so that they will
stay suppressed the means of accomplishing
il are very simple and quite at hand. Hon.
j. III. Drumm0nd said: Liquor will be sold
in Maine in spite Of the law as long as 1t is
profitable" Those few words contain the
full statement of the case; they cover the
ground completely. Now If the purpose be
to suppress that trade, what course to do 1t
does common sense suggest? Ihls, and
nothing more; to make the liquor trade un-
profitable and uncomfortable TO those who
persist 1t. That and nothing more. A very
easy and simple thing to accomplish. The
law as it stands now, will enable active, hon
est officials to suppress these nulsanees by
persistent work, but they will spring up
again if there should be any relaxation Of
vigilance and active WORK. But with such
amendments to the law as we desire the
grog shops would close without fight and
remain closed.
For many years the temperance men and
women of Maine have understood this mat
ter perfectly, and have taken great pains to
secure legislation that would surely accom-
plish this end, but so far they have failed to
do it. They are in no way discouraged, and
will continue their efforts until they succeed.
The decision of the Supreme Court in the
prind fdcie case takes no tooth fl0m that
provision Of the law. 1t was not intended
or expected to be direction to the jury to
convict respondent upon the payment Of
the u S. special tax, but to put the burden
of proof upon the respondent to show to the
satisfaction of the jury that he had not yio-
lated the law, though he intended to do so
when he paid the tax, but had changed his
mind Before the enactment of this primd
