A daring Philsdelphian has married
his mother-in law. But he had to go to
Washington to have the knot tied. since
the relationship fell within the forbidden
degrees Of consanguinity by the Penn
sylvania statute, the statutory penalty
being $500 fine and six to twelve months
imprisonment. The Delaware law makes
such a marriage void and fines each Of

was brought to the notice of the Legis.
lature Of 1887, in which Sussex man
had welded his sisters daughters daugh-
ter, contrary to the law OF the State. The
offender affirmed that he had consulted
his Bible and finding no prohibition
touching this kinship there laid down,
had gone ahead without dreaming that
he was eontravening any civil enactment.
The Legislature condoned his offence
and fixed the matter up to his satisfaction
by passing special act validating the
marriage.

The appointment of William Walter
Phelps as Minister to Germany is one OF
the very few made by President Harrison
which meets general approval. 1t is an
appointment regarded and commended
by the press at large, without respect to
party, as fitting reward for efficient
service rendered and that service of q
kind which brought out anew gratifying
evidence Of the appointee's diplomatic
skill. Higher praise could hardly fall to
the lot Of men in political life than to
have their desert as ungrudgingly &C.
knowledged as that OF Minister Phelps
by political opponents. -.

The anti Chicsgo-beef law has been
adjudged unconstitutional In case just
passed upon by the Porter county, In
diana, circuit court, Judge William
johnson presiding. The last legislature
of Indiana passed bill of the same
kind that was pushed In the Delaware
legislature, prohibiting the sale Of fresh
meat unless the animals had been first
inspected alive within the county where
the meat was to be offered for sale.
Under this act an agent of Swift & Co.,
OF Chicago, was arrested and fined $50,
by magistrate. for selling in the town
of Hammond, Indiana, dressed beef
slaughtered in Chicago. In default Of
payment of the fine the agent was COM
mitted to jail. Brought by o writ of
habeas corpus before Judge johnson, the
court held the law to be unconstitutional
and discharged the prisoner. In his
opinion, Judge Johnson holds that the
statute is akin to the exercise of power
by the individual states over interstate
commerce, which rendered the articles OF
confederation a rope Of sand and which
led to the adoption of the present national
constitution. The judge added that

three or fout columns Of matter regard
ing the present outlook for the peach
crop; chiefly in the form of letters from
growers in reply to an interrogatory
circular. The information brought out
is, so far as it goes, enhanced in value
by the consideration that all ordinary
dangers to the crop have now been
passed, and, therefore, the young fruit
nov on the trees represents, maugre
some unusual destruction which cannot
be reasonably expected, the crop actually
in sight. The reports cover points in
Cecil, Kent, Queen Aune's, Dorchester
and Wicomico counties, Maryland, and
Kent and Sussex counties, Delaware.
They indicate in the main that the
Eastern Shore yield will be very light,
and that consumers must look chiefly to
the southern half OF this State for sup
plies. In Cecil county, as in New CASTLE,
we are told that the yellows has been so
destructive that that county ia hardly
to be considered longer as a part
Of the peach producing territory.
In five years from now, one grower
writes, peach orchards will be almost III
known in Cecil; unless some reliable
prophylactic for this disease be found.
From Kent county, Md, "a locality in
Neck excepted) comes also the stereo-
tyfed report: "We have plenty of yell
lows" Queen Anne growers, except two
in the upper part near Sudlersville, re-
port their orchards as yet untouched by
yellows; in the excepted cases, one
grower mentions that the disease first
made its appearance last year. Taking
the average of the Eastern Shore reports
they indicate very few peaches in Cecil |;
from one eighth to one-fourth of q crop
in Kent (Md.) }; one.fourth of crop in
Queen Anne's and Dorchester, and q full
crop in Wicomico. or the Delaware
growers, W. II. Hudson of Clayton, re.
ports 10 per cent Of full crop in his
orchard; one.fourth Of a full crop in Kent
county, and that 1--WE have the yell
lows in orr section" A Pullen
OF Milford, says there will be
co per cent of full crop In Sussex
county; and Charles Wright of sesford,
expects full crop from his own orchard
and from 7J to 30 per cent OF crop in
his neighborhood. As to the yellows he
writes that the disc ase has not troubled
that section. "Professer E. r. Smith
OF the Agricultural Department, he
says, examined some forty orchards
here last summer, and could not find 6
single defined case of yellows ia any o.
them, but fonnd several 'suspieieuS
trees in trees brought FROM New Jersey.
The respondents are practically unani

prevent its spread ia to Immediately
root out and burn every affected tree.
4 Ths data given are not sufficient tt
demonstrate whether the disease hs
passed further southwark beyond II
last years limit, but it Is probably to,
early to determine this with oertaint.
since generally the first noticeable symp
tom that tree has been stricken by vel
lows is the 'premsturing" Of its fruit.

PAUPERS BY LAW.

With the hungry wolf licking his bloody chops before almost every door with chatteI mortgage sales of almost daily occurrence in all our principal
 towns-with the best bushel of potatoes,
 the best calf and the best colt laid daily
 on the altar of the usurer's claims-these
 powers of money, these creatures of the people, these unsuitable corporations,
 step into our conventions and seize the sacred ermine and the lawgivers power solely in order to stifle future legisla- tion, and hold their grip upon the purses of the people The ballot box IS the peoples sacred ark of the covenant of God. Its seizure by these powers means
 it's destruction. Mere thieves might be
 let off by society with only mild con- demnation, and no great harm be done. Buccaneers and pirates mlgh foil the clutches of the law, and society be only temporarily the worse. But when pirates and buccaneers seize the very source Of the law and the very fountain-head of
 justice, with the fell design of pervert- ing them to their own uses and maintain. ing themselves in power, liberty must cover her face with her mantle to hide her tears, and the last hope of the people sinks in sombre cloud. Q, for pen of fire, that we might write words that would burn into the peoples hearts, to warn them of the danger and the loss | that threaten them. -- Lincoln Alliance.
