LANSING. MIcu May 1s, tSpccirl Dis
y h.)-1he County Lucal Option law
that wNs 30 grnigingly passed by the leg
islNlure after the fraudulent defeat OF the
Prohbitnry Amendment n year ngo, hnp
been declared Unconstitutional by the
Supreme Court. The Legislature OF 1887
wns Republican by 20 TO 0 in the Forate
aud 67 to 33 in the House. 1t distinguish
ed itself by refusing 10 consider the petit
tons OF the Prol,ibitionisls praying for an
investigation OF the frauds by which the
Amendment WINS lost. Then BILLS provih-
ing for Local Option counties and Tor rails
Ing the liquor tax were introduced az Re-
publican measures. The Local Option
bill was,fought by the Republican liquor
members, who proved so powerful that, in
spite OF the 81 Republican majority In the
House, IL was beaten in that body. Blu,
the Republican organ Of the state, the
Detroit Tribune, piled the lush upon the
recalcitrants, and the bill even went
through by one majority, and even then i
would have been lost if several Democrats
had not voted for il.
Under the Local Option law 80 countiei
have been carried for. Prohibition, Rnt
defeats have been sustained in only two
counties.
The Supreme Court declares the law IN.
constitutional on the ground that its title
does not describe il. The Constitution
provides that no law shall embrace NOR,
than one object, which shall be expresset
In ITS title. The title Of the Local Optior
law reads
"An act to regulate the manufacture ani
sale OF malt, brewed or fermented, spiritu-
Gus and vineous liquors in the severa
counties Of this State"
As the purpose of the law is not to regu-
late but prohibit the traffic, the Court hold
that II 10 void. The Court points out vari
GUS defects in the provisions of the statute,
showing that 1t was drawn in the mos
careless wAy.-N. Y. Voice.

A BRUTAL MURDER.
Fishermen Driven or from Private
Grounds
Law in Ambush and Shoot the Owners 8
Wife.


The fishing grounds on the Tobique river,
near Andover, n. B., were the scene of a
murder Sunday morning. On Sat
urday morning, several men supposed to be-
long in that vicinity, were found fishing on
the grounds owned by private parties, one of
whom is Mai. Howes OF Massachusetts,. The
Major ordered the intruders off the grounds,
and after some angry words had passed, his
orders were sullenly obeyed. Yesterday
morning the Major, his wife, four children
and three Indian guides were enjoying sail
on the river near Gulqual, when they were
fred upon from the bank. Some ten shots
were fred. one of which struck Mrs. Howes
in the head, killing her instantly.
The officers suspect two men named Day
and Trafton. The sheriff and posse are
usine all means at their command TO run
them down. The inhabitants of that section
are greatly excited, and if the suspected par
ties are caught before the public passion
cools down. an attempt will be made to take
,bam from the officers and lynch them. Maj
Howes had casket sent from Woodstock
last night by special train, and the remains
will 90 west by train to night.
