The supreme court of Indiana has de-

tract. but special tax imposed in the
exercise Of the police power of the state;
that 1t gives the holder no right to sell

fed in the license itself or the law under
which II Is granted, and that nothing Of
this right 10 implied beyond what is
clearly expressed. "Applying this ruling
to the Pennsylvania law" says an ex-
change, "a licensee has no right to

Randall, "thc Reformed COnvict,o
shown up ms n Rank Fraud.
The following was published In the
GAZETTE last week:
The Rev. q. Randall Of Washington an
nounoes that he is here to distribute tracts
and do what he can to encourage u
religious sentiment among those who are
non .churchgoers. Edward Randall of
Washington, an alleged reformed convict,
came here some years ago and, after dis
tributlng tracts, painting scriptural quota
lions upon rocks In the now Brandywine
park, and holding services In New Castle
jail, created trouble and departed hastily.
1t IL pretty certain that the Rev. e. Randall
and Edward Randall, the reformed con-
vict, are one person.
On Monday last the GAZETTE received
from Baltimore tracts entitled "But
When ?" "The Right Way" 1.-THE Great
Change" "what Are Wei" and "Shail
You be One ?" on the backs OF which is
considerable printed matter. One par
agraph, signed J.. W. Cornelius, says
people In Martinsburg think Randall is q
lunatic, fanatic or an imposter, per-
haps all three, that he was convicted and
imprisoned for forgery, that he is d.
vorced from lady who ia member Of
Martinsburg M, 70. Church, that he never
was nor never can be member of that
believes or notices him except as o carl
cature of truth and religion.
Another paragraph, with the caption
"Pass Him Around,n says he Is on the
wing as tirst-class humbug, that he has
few testimonials which were obtained
from few people who knew but little
about him and that TIE Rev. j. w.
Cornelius of Baltimore Conference
advertises him as consummate
scoundrel.
The following from the Morgan county
items In the Martinsburg Independent, is
also printed ON the tracts "Ed. Randall,
ex.conVict and imposter, was in town on
Monday distributing tracts. There is, I
believe, q place called Hades, of which
Ed. is king"
The above gratuitous advertising was
sent to the GAZETTE by Randall with
the request to distribute it.
On the back Of one OF the tracts In
printed the text from Isaiah. sNo weapon
that is formed against thee, 30. beneath
which Is written Baltimore Conference
gave me weapon all Hsdes can't upset. F"
The printed matter referred to was put
on the tracts with rubber stamp. Com
menting on this matter Randall says,
"Anybody with as much brains as fish
can see at once in this rubber stamp. All
is safe, Randall hight aud you 'rong.'"
Referring to the paragraph In the
GAZETTE Kendall remarks ST could not

Pushed for an explanation of his belief
Mr.. Rothaker seoffed at the idea that Re-
corder Boland, Alex Sullivan or any one
Of the triangle was responsible for the
alleged trial of oronin. Mr.. Rothaker
expressed himself as being positive that
the body found in the sewer was not that
OF Cronin, but Of a ''stiff" obtained FROM
Chicago medical college.
Continuing, Mr.. Rothaker said: "My
belief that Oronin Is alive 10 strengthened
by telegram addressed to prominent
Irishman 10 Omaha, and which was shown
me. 1t was sent from Chicago, and its
contents vera to the effect that positive
assurance has been received by the sender
that Cronin Ia still alive and requesting

The fact that very many of the unfcr.

OF four murdererg awaiting the execution

contention would have been to open the
prison doors TO every New York muir

nothing in the plea and appears to have
done this without resorting to the Score.
