1t turns out that Commissioner Wheatley's
secret examination Of selected witnesses in re-
spect to the management of the Washington
asylum was not the mere preliminary to an
open, formal inquiry, but full-fedged investi-
cation, ON the strength of which the intendant
is found mot guilty and admonished not to
do so any more. OF course the public
IS not satisfied with such an
inquiry which avoids the witnesses who
know the most about the charges. which sub
jects to a hostile cross-examination only those
who testify unfavorably to the intendant or
matron, and which is avowedly based upon the
evidence of persons in the employment of the
persons accused, and excludes the evidence of
all who are alleged to have been ill-treated
The poverty which sends one to the poor
house is a novel ground upon which to pro-
nounce a witness incompetent and unworthy of
belief. The intendant himself has reason to
be dissatisfied with decision which dismisses
charges against him, but tells him hereafter
to get better meat and to obey the law in re-
spect to the disposal of property. There is a
suggestion in this injunction that some of the
charges are not TO be dismissed. Both the in
tendant and the public must look for really
satisfactory investigation to the new Commits
sioners to be appointed, who will probably not
be embarrassed in an open and thorough pro-
secution of the inquiry

Prohibition by constitutional amendment is
overwhelmingly defeated in Massachusetts,.
Pennsylvania which is soon TO vote upon the
question, is likely to decide in the same way. The
secret Of the series of defeats which prohibit
ton by constitutional amendment has recently
suffered is found in the opposition of temper
ance people, who think that the adoption of
prohibition as part of the organic act would be
followed by the neglect and practical nullifca-
ton Of the law in cities and other localities
where public sentiment is rs yet OPP
posed to it, and that ell practical
means of regulating the liquor traffic
in such places would be sacrificed without COM
penssting advantages. They adopt the Greek
lswgiver's principle, that the best laws are not
the best absolutely abstractly. but the best
that the people can endure. the best that will
be enforced. The discussion Of the liquor
question in Massachusetts has been thorough
and instructive. and. in other states where
prohibitory constitutional amendments have
been defeated. information concerning the
evils Of the liquor traffic and the necessity for
its strict regulation has been spread broadcast,
and the result, it may be hoped, will be the
adoption of such practical restrictive measures
as local public sentiment will enforce. Every
such defeat is, of course. to a certain extent a
victory for the liquor men, who have used the
ultra-prohibitionists to defeat high license and
the high-license temperance men to defeatcon-
stitutional prohibition. But from the indica-
tons of various phases Of the controversy over
the liquor question public opinion seems to be
hardening into the definite conviction that for
the large cities Of the country high license is
the most effective temperance measure; but
that prohibition is the best in such counties or
other limited districts as under local-option
system decide in favor Of prohibition. for in
them the prohibitory law sustained by local
sentiment will be enforced. The happy effects
of the local-option system are illustrated in
neighboring counties of Maryland which have
voted for prohibition under this system, and
which see to it that the law of their own DELHI
crate choice is obeyed.
