LAND STEALING NOT TOLERATED.

Secretary Noble states that " the Admins
tration does not propose that the people who
have faithfully obeyed the letter and the spirit
of the law in regard to the settlement OF Okla
homa shall suffer in consequence OF their
action.~ Those who had gone into the terri
tory before noon on the 22d, and had located
claims, had done so illegally, as the Presidents
proclamation showed. But il the dispatches
printed on Wednesday by THE TRIBUNE were
not in error, these persons were United states
officials or acting in collision with them, and
their admission to the territory professedly as
DEPUTY marshals was the foundation OF whole
sale theft, which must have been expect
d by some official when their permits were
granted
The comments of Secretary Noble will be
received with satisfaction by citizens OF all
parties, who have n right to expect that the
Administration will enforce the law without
fear or favor. If officials are found in fault,
whether they are new men and Republicans re-
Gently appointed, or Democrats who have so
far been retained in office, public opinion VIII
look for their immediate dismissal from trusts
which they have abused. The Administration
will be expected to go just as far as it can, under
INV, w uNpiINO VI ehNiA T'D'S-' p -
those who entered the territory illegally, and
located lands before settlers who strictly obeyed
the law could arrive. In every case of collision
between officials and lawbreakers, such az
seems TO have existed in this instance, proof
of wrongful intent is apt to be hard to get, but
all Republicans will expect the Administration
TO do its utmost to uncover any fraud, TO punish
any guilty person against whom sufficient EVIL
dence can be obtained, and to protect the rights
of honest settlers to the full extent of its power
1t will be proper, at the same time, not to
assume that all the accounts which come from
greatly excited camp of landhunters are
necessarily correct, or can be substantiated by
evidence. There is q strong probability that
rumor and honest mistake have in some in
stances taken the place of fact. 1t would be
unjust TO the Administration and the officials.
no matter to which party the latter may be-
long, to assume that all the reports received
are accurate, and can be verified by proof.
What the public desires, and expects with great
confidence, is that all the power Of the Govern
ment will be exercised with thorough earnest
ness to defeat fraud and protect rights

nil admit that the results have been satisfactory
Another explanation offered is that the pro,
hibitory measure was mistakenly made Droau
enough 10 cover cider drinkers, and therefore
offended the applo-rasing farmers. 1t Is not
oasy TO imagine that anybody really has
notion so absurd. The entire value OF oil

ror were they larger in farming than in man

not wise to antagonize an interest so wideiy
scattered. though ever so unlmportant Duo
tbere Is an entire lack OF evidence that their
crushing defeat was due to any such mistake.
Prohibition went down because thousands OF
voters oll over the State who had favored No
I;conse in towns and cities voted against Pro-
bibition in the State.
A great many sober and earnest citizens con-
cluded. after much careful inquiry and thought,
that 4 law which cannot be enforced is infinitely
worse than less ambitious measure which IS
practicable They deliberately concluded thao
prohibitory legislation would be worse than use

Liccnse.v Massachusetts, has learned as we'll
as other States, that laws Of this nature cannot
be enforced by State authorities exclusively
and do not enforce themselves. Ii the local
officials of the different towns and cities are
hostile, the law is broken with impunty. Local
self government in this sense was puritan

THE MEANING OF THE DEFEAT.

One fact makes the defeat Of Prohibition III
Massachusetts more instructive than either of
the defeats in other States. In Massachusetts
many thousand voters who had recently voted
for No License in the various towns and
cities were the men who buried Prohibition
under their adverse ballots. This definite
change of attitude casts more light upon the
course Of public opinion than any other recent
decision. Some explain it on the theory that,
after partial trial and more deliberate consider
alton, this great army of voters have decided
that the measure which they were willing to see
tried has not worked well, and therefore should
not be tried on q larger scale. But that con-
cl1sion would be illogical. Absolute failure in
n particular town, with hostile sentiment and
practice all around it, would be no evidence
whatever that Prohibition throughout State
would not succeed. Neither were the unex-
pccted adverse majortieS found in those towns
only or mainly in which q" No License" had
proved disappointing. Heavy majorities against
Prohibition appeared in towns where the ma
jorities for No License were decisive, and where

1t appears that we are to he treated in the
Pennsylvania Prohibition campaign to some
repetition of the intolerance of that in MaSSa-
chusctts, where men conspicuous for their picty
and elevation of character were savagely de-
nounced as slaves of the rum power because
they chose TO question the wisdom Of Consttu-
ticnal Prohibition. The Rev. George *. Morris,
Of Philadclp ha, has now been making feroclous
attack upon DR.. Howard Crosby. The venerable
clergyman is, we learn for the first time, " the
pet OF the liquor interests" Of the traitors
who ought to go out out under the black Tag
He has been treated too tenderly,' and should
be driven over TO the place where he belongs"
These reckless ISLANDERS need answer. Wherever
DIR. Crosby is known his reputation is a sufli-
Gent condemnation OF such bigoted and un-
Christian attacks.

WEAK WOMEN

The more sensitive nature of the fe-
male sex renders women much more
susceptible than men TO those numerous
ills which spring from lack Of harmony
in the system. The nervous system gives
way. sick headache is frequent. the
appetite is lost. and other ailments pc
culiar TO the sex cause great suffering.
Hoods Sarsaparilla is peculiarly adapt
ed for such cases. and has received the
most gratifying praises for the relief it
has afforded thousands of women whose
very existence before taking it, was only
misery. 1t strengthens the nerves, cures
sick headache and Indigestion, puriiies
and yitalizes the blood. and gives regular
and healthy action to every organ in the
body
