Prohibition Voted DOwn.

The defeat of the prohibition amend
ment in Massachusetts, is overwhelm-
ing.
The canvas has been very earnest
and the most sanguine opponents of
the proposition To prohibit the manu-
facture or sale of liquors by provision
of the Constitution did not expect q
majority of more than 90 900 against it
The majority reported exceeds 40 900.
What is especially significant in that
the anti-prohibtion vote is not confin-
ed to the cities and large towns, but
seems to be distributed over great
part of the State. Massachusetts has
now local option law, and while nj
the last elections the aggregate vote
for license exceeded the vote against
license by about $4,000, there was a
majority against license outside of the
cities. The present returns indicate
either that the prohibition sentiment is
less strong than it was or else that the
people of the State are not convinced
that the existing local option and high
| license system would be improved by a
constitutional amendment.
AS the New England States have
had a much longer experience in re-
strictive legislation than Pennsylvan-
ia, this emphatic decision, following
close on the defeat of the prohibition
| amendment in New Hampshire and
the vote in favor of resubmission OF
the question in Rhoie Island, cannot
fail to influence the judgment of the
voters of this State upon the similar
proposition shortly to be submittsd to
| them.-Philddplph Times.

Eubanks as a ScapegOat.

When the President confers Cabinet
positions in return for large contribu-
lions to the fund that carried the piv-
otal States for him, and when his party
upholds or tacity assents to that sort
of thing, why should it pretend to CEN
sure it's Congressman CT its defeated
candidates for Congress for trying to
recover their campaign expenses by
charging q moderate brokers' commits
sion on the Federal appointments plac-
ed at their disposal?
When the party openly, before the
face of the whole country and without
putting even the thinnest disguise up
on the transaction. sells the Vice-Pres-
idency to a millionaire for campaign
fund consideration and for no other
consideration whatever, it authorizes
and invites every member Of that party
who wants an office to buy 1t, and
every member who has an office at his
disposal to sell it. When the spoils
system fiourishes full blown rs it does
now. and the patronage is parceled out
systematically to local politicians and
to railroad presidents or other repre-
sentatives of special "busineess in-
terests" for campaign services. the out
cry against the Hon. A. G. Eubanks of
Missouri and the pretense of condemn
ing the moderate fees he charges as an
once broker is mOnstrous hypocrisy.
Mr.. Eubanks only carries the SPOTS
system to its logical and inevitab BILE
conclusion. He does in small way
only what his party and it's most ex-
alted leaders are doing on far larger

THE TOWN INCORPORATION LAW.

The recent act of tue legislature allows
citizens to incorporate towns or villages
upon complying with certain prescribed
regulations. The judge is authorized to
take final action in the matter upon appli-
cation in the proper manner. This was
the course pursued in the incorporation of
Ross PARK, a suburb of Spokane Falls
The application was acted upon by Judge
Nash. IL is il timated that this town in
corporation law will be declared void on
the ground that it confers Legislative pow
ers on the courts. This presumes that the
line of distinction betw en- the legisla.
tive and judicial departments Is as closely
defined in our organic law as II IL in such
states rs Illinois, where the constitution
divides the powers into three parts, legis-
lative, executive and judicial and forbids
one department from exercising the pow.
ers of another department. The organic
law governing this territory confers full
Legislative power upon the Legislature ex-
cept MS expressly limited. 1t has been
held at least twice, by the supreme court
VI thV ShAtcu btdtCo, thdt a tCIIltOIiht
legislature can exercise judicial powers.
On the other hand, the courts are not
like the old English common courts, crea-
tions of the king, who claimed absolute
judicial power. and delegated portion
of that absolute power to the courts. Our
courts are statutory. and have no powers
except those conferred by the legislature
and by congress. Their jurisdiction il to
be limited by law. The legislature can
confer administrative or legislative powers
upon the judges of che courts. II the de-
termination Of the fact that majority of
tine inhabitants of certain area have
elected to organize Il municipal corpora
tion, is a Legislative act, then the town in
corporation act confers on the judges Ieeis-
lative power. There is nothing in the or
ganic law forbiddinR it.
In England private and municipal COR
porations stood upon the same basis
grants from the king, or special grants
from parliament. Apparently private
corporations are created by the exercise of
Legislative power. They are on the same
footing with municipal corporations. Ua-
der our system of creation by general law,

Private corporations are or
ganized by signing articles of incorpors-
