VETOED BY HILL.
Gov. Hill Refuses to Approve the
High License Bill.

ALBANY, n. Y, May 9.-Gov. Hill
has vetoed the Crosby high license bill,
which passed the legislature April 81.
The, grounds on which he vetoed the
bill are that it unjustly discriminates in
placing higher license on beer than OH
liquors; that it unreasonably taxes
grocers' sales of liquors in packages;
that it would operate as prohibitory of
the traffic in small villages and rural
districts; that the existing laws prevent
higher license than are in fact enacted,
showing that public sentiment does not
demand compulsory general increase.
and that the bill is in many essential re-
SpectS partisan measure and not based
on demands of general public policy.

GREEK CATHOLICS.

CHICAGO, May 9.-The Greek Catho-

of their own. 1t will be the third Greek
Catholic church in the United States,
there being one in San Francisco and
another in New Orleans. Some time
ago the Servians, Greeks, Bulgarians
and Russians, who have made Chicago
their home, sent a petition to the Rus
sian minister in Washington requesting
him to induce the Russian government
to contribute to the building of Greek
Catholic church in Chicago and to send
priest. Yesterday prominent Ser
Wan received letter from the Greek
Catholic bishop in San Francisco. The
bishop, who will visit Chicago in Au-
gust, advises his cO-religionists to come
together to show how many members
are in the Greek Catholic faith. A list
containing all their names shall be sent
to him, and he in his turn will submit
to the holy synod at st. Petersburg,
which will then unhesitatingly respond
to the call of the faithful. That the
highest church authority, the bishop
writes, was willing to contribute not
only to the building of church, but to
the maintenance oft, and Of the priest.

substantially as follows:
MANY persons in this hall consider
God a mere sentimental being. Men
and women here tonight have made

They try to persuade themselves that
there is no judgment. They are shelter
ing themselves behind that which God
calls refuge of lies. 1t is the part of
wisdom that we fall in with Gods
plans. 1t is said that there are hypo-
critics in the church. That miserable
excuse is used by hundreds who know
the truth. 1t is proof pos
tive that there are Christians
in the church if you find hypocrites
there also. Even after you have done
the best You could you will have no diff
fculty in finding people who have no
confidence in you. You, who say that
you will not become Christians now,

A Very Queerly Constructed Doc
ument.

L.
CHICAGO, May 9.--It is asserted to-
night that the will of Gen. Martin BEEN,
whose mysterious death has caused so
much comment, contains a note COM
handing that if anything should hap
pen to him an investigation should be
made. The will was drawn up less
than week before his death. The pro-
bate clerk refuses to allow the dOcu-
ment to be inspected at present. A
peculiar feature of the tragedy is the
fact that if it is shown that Gen. BEEN
was murdered, his life insurance can be
collected by his sister in Alton, to whom
it is payable, but if as Mrs. BEEN
claims, he was not murdered at all, but
committed suicide, his relatives stand
no show for the money. The relatives
appear TO believe that he was murdered,
and are actively cooperating with the
Chicago Union Veteran league in ferret
ing out the mystery

PROTESTS THAT FAILED.


Some time ago it was announced with
a great flourish Of trumpets that grand
mass meeting of workingmen would be
held in New York to protest against the
passage of the MILLS bill. The meet
ing has been held. There are over
100000 workingmen in New York, and
the city is the very center of the mo-
nopolistic and high tariff idea. but the
grand mass convention succeeded in
corralling just 200 members. These,
assuming to speak for the 100000 work.
ingmen who were not present, entered
a formal protest against the MILLS bill
for the stereotyped and frequently eX-
planned reason that its passage would
result in the cutting down of wages.
The fact that so few of the working
men should have assembled, and most
of these presumably at the dictation OF
monopolistic employers, is proof suf-
ficient that the great majority of the
New York workingmen are too intelli-
gent to be deceived by the specious
arguments which the opponents Of the
MILLS bill bring forward. Many of
these toilerS, agreeing with the West,
find fault with the bill only because it
does not go far enough. There is still
too much discrimination. too much
favoring Of one locality at the expense
of another, in it to suit their ideas of
fairness. If they protested against it at
all it would be upon these grounds.
But in common with the rest of the
country not hampered with monopolistic
control, they regard it as step in the
right direction, as removing portion of
the burdens they have borne i'll order
that others might be enriched. 1t is
not likely that they would be so blind to
their own interests as to protest against
a measure which offers them much
needed relief.
That fact is sufficient explanation of
the meager attendance at the widely
advertised protest meeting, and that
fact also explains why the meeting was
such an utter and deserved failure.
People endowed with common sense are
not in the habit of protesting against
methods devised to check robbery pure
and simple.

ENDORSING RUsK.

The Wisconsin Republicans have done
credit neither to themselves nor to their
state in indorsing Gov. RUsK for presi-
dent and in deciding to present his
name to the Republican national COLI
vention. OF course the Wisconsin Re-
pubIicans know that Gov. JERRY has no
more chance of becoming the nominee
than has Col. PETER DOMAIN, and they
recognize fully the fact that their vote
will be purely complimentary one.
But can they afford to identify them
man who, as governor, has been false
to his sworn duty?
1t is very curious process OF reason
ing by which they arrive at an affirma-
tive answer to the question. In all rou
tine matters pertaining to the governor
ship RUsK has performed his duties Or
dinarily we'll 1t is in matters beyond
the usual demands of red tape
that he has been found wanting.
1t has been shown to him, for
instance, with the utmost conclusiveness,
that, despite the denials and supine III
activity of officials, the disgraceful
Stockade dens of the northern part OF
the state still exist. Though strictly
within his province to take action in the
premises, he went off pleasurlng and
conveniently forgot all about the mat
ter. In indorsing RUsK, therefore, the
Wisconsin Republicans indorse his
dereliction.
1t is a pretty poor platform upon
which to stand presidential candidate;
but, so far as the serious consideration
of RUsK's name is concerned, it doesn't
make the slightest difference what kind
of a platform he stands upon. No one
is better acquainted with this fact than
the Wisconsin Republicans themselves.
