LANSING, Mich, May 19.-The supreme court has unanimously declared the local option law unconstitutional. The ground upon which this decision is reached is that the law is direct violation of article 4, section 20 of the constitution, although other points are touched upon incidentally. The article of the constitution violated provides that no law shall embrace more than one object. which shall be embodied in its title. The local option flaw is entitled |" an act to regulate the manufacture and sale of liquor,n n which is not at all what the law is for.

The Victim in tho Hospital and Ills As
 snilant in the Lock-Up.
 Joseph Murray, a desperate and quarrel some fellow, committed an assault upon James McGrevey yesterday, at New Haven. The two men were standing on the corner of Congress avenue and Washington street talking, when Murray suddenly and apparently without special provocation, knocked his companion down.
 Persons who witnessed the encounter say that after knocking James down Joseph proceeded to kick and pound him. Lamp Inspector Noonan happened along while Joseph was kicking and stamping James, and he immediately placed Joseph under arrest. James was unable to rise, and Chief Bollman, who accidentally arrived about the same time, sent for the ambu- lance to convey him to the hospital Blood streamed from gashes in James's head, face and lips. Several of his teeth were knocked out entirely. Joseph was locked up at police headquarters. He probably will be charged with assault with intent to kill.

Our belief was that to exempt fruit brandies and alcohol used in the arts was indirectly and hypocritically, but effectually, to destroy the internal revenue system; and if this is to be done, we preferred to do it or have it done openly, and thus fix the responsibility for it upon those who accomplished it.
