TEMPERANCE WARFARE
Creates a Commotion Among Dover
Rum-Sellers.
DOVER, n. H., March

DOVER, n. H., March 26.
The result of the inauguration of Rev,
Frank Chase's war on the liquor dealers to-
day, is that none but the most trusted patrons
of the one hundred and fifty saloons and
kitchen bairooms could succeed tonight in
getting any intoxicants
The moment it became known that two
raids had been made on complaints sworn
ont by Chase. there was a panic among the
ligpor dealer, in every part of the city. The
owners of job teams reaped harvest for
several hours, the saloon keepers being bust
ly engaged in having their stock removed to
places of safety.
Chase said tonight that only two raids were
made tonight, and those on wholesalers, to
convince and give the retailers a chance To
prepare for what is coming. He has been
contemplating this work for eight years and
declares he shall prosecute it as long as he
remains here.
The liquor dealers are on the anxious seat
and say that for the present only temperance
drinks will be plt on sale.

The alarm caused by the recent appearance
of small pox at Cumberland Mills, but which
nearly subsidized today revived when DIR. n

case of small pox on Bracket St, in this

to have contracted the disease from MEM
Der of the family who has been working in
the infected rag room at Cumberland Mills.
The Board of Health have taken charge of
the case and are making their usual prompt
and judicious efforts to stay the contagion,
and as all previous cases in this vicinity have
proved of Il mild type it is believed that the
danger of an epidemic here is much less
than many of our citizens seem to fear

The constitution.

ED. P. G. ADvERTIsER-Sir: What are
! those called who engage in the secret
making of something in the hidden
| places-the mountain caves and ravines
of the Southern States? Sunlight
suggests, but it is not the word; COM
porisons if pressed too far may be
| odiOus.
No one has yet acknowledged, much
less claimed the authorship of the Con-
| stitution. So no one can feel personally
agrieved if it be suggested that its COM
pliers never drew one before, or ever sat
in a Constitutional Convention, where
there is always thoughtful conference,
with special care for consistency and
against ambiguity. The discussions,
under the full blaze of the publicity
given by the press, are not on the line of
party differences. Perhaps our Consti-
tuition makers have had extensive prac-
tice in benevolent, charitable and social
organizations.
The King appoints his Cabinet and
can remove them on certain conditions.
''No act of the King shall have any effect
unless countersigned by member of
the Cabinet" See Art. A. Will those
removed countersign their own or each
others dismissal-or those chosen their
own appointment?
|. Article 20 is good one, so praise is
lavish where approval is due. "The
Executive, Legislative and Judicial
powers shall always be preserved dis
tinct." Amen.
Then what were the Cabinet doing in
the late session of Parliament?
"Eureka!' They had right there,
but one limited in the same line that
confers it "to hold seats ex officio," what
ever that means, with right to vote"
on some questions. The privilege of
expressly or by intimation, and why
should they have it for they do not rep
resent any part of the people. They
help the King in executing the will of
the nation as expressed by the elected
members. At the coming session some
of the Cabinet may receive valuable sug-
gestions, as they listen in unwilling
silence to remarks on their acts and de-
signs.
The present Parliament has the long
est biennial term there ever has been or
will be. At it's first preliminary session
it could perhaps afford some uDconstitu-
tional favors to a sitting and voting Wis
itor, but when it settles down to the
work of the regular session how will it
be, and what will the next chosen Legis-
lature do? 1t will be a rest to hear a
dumb Ministerial bench. X.

been appropriated by the Legislature for

a Present of Negro Girls.

The King of Dahomey has considera-
bly, embarrassed the invalid King of
Portugal by sending him present of
half dozen negro girls, with mes
sage that they had been selected from
the prettiest and plumpest damsels in
his dominions. On reaching Lisbon
these nymphs were attired much after
the fashion of the Garden OF Eden, but
they have since been decorously dressed
by order of King Louis. They were
first sent to the marine barracks, where
they were kept for few days in care
fully guarded wing, but this arrange
ment caused both scandal and incon-
venience, so they were relegated to
house in the botanical gardens, where
they still remain.
