high license system which requires a
man before he applies for license to have
the signatures Of three hundred persons
TO his application and publication of
their names in the county paper. 1t is
believed that in many communities the
enforcement Of this requirement will
have the effect Of maintaining practical
prohibition. If SO, well and good. The
end is what is desired

The proposition to cease publishing the
Congressional Record will meet the de-
termined opposition of the press of this
country Every editor with large family
can testify that there Is nothing 50 handy
as lot of bound volumes of the Record
for propping the children up to the desired
height on their chairs at the breakfast
table-Atchison Champion.
There is another class who will oppose
the proposition more violently than the
press folk, and that is the majority of
the representatives in congress. How
on earth would the average congress
man convince his constituency that he
ever opens his mouth in the house if
there was no Record in which he can
have his speeches Chat lie never de-

The st. Joseph, Missouri, Gazette says
the Burlington railroad is doing losing
business. Although every road west of
Chicago is doing rushing business, the
c., B. & @. is carrying very little freight.
Shippers will not risk. 1t adds that "a
Burlington passenger train on time into
the St. Joseph union depot these days,
would be bought and exhibited as the
eight wonder of the world" The man
ayers of the c., 3. G G. asseverate that
it is matter Of principle which they are
endeavoring to maintain. The question
is how long will the stockholders. those
who sustain the losses, stand it to have
the principle thus upheld.

The Chicago Tribune remarks that the
example set by the Illinois legislature of
last years of prohibiting the sale of Gig
arettes or tobacco to boys under 16, has
worked SO well that the law has been
adopted by Ohio. The attention of the
Tribune is called to the fact that the
same law was passed by the legislature
of Washington Territory so long ago as
1883, and IS still in force there. What
state or territory set the good example to
Washington is worthy Of inquiry.
