License tinkering seems to be the
favorite by-play Of politicians in the
Legislature Mr. Brooks, the author of
the present license law, has two bills in
hand ready to present when somewhat
revised. The chief features of the Brooks
supplements have been discussed in
these columns. and with the single ex.
eeption of the provision relating to the
transfero OF licenses. they have met with
little favor Mr. Quigley of this city. has
prepared bill requiring affidavit to be
made and filed of record before any rule
shall be granted to show cause why the
court shall not revoke license when
complained of. and a copy Of the affidavit
to be served upon the defendant five DAYS
before return day Of the rule This is not
an unreasonable measure Il avoids the
untenable attitude of denying the courts
power 70 revoke licenses. and ii is only
tair that the person complained of should
know what accusations are to be met.
Mr.. Lemon, Of Allegheny. proposes the
original license bin framed by the poll.

interests the plaything Of politics. His
measure provides for State Board of
excise commissioners, to be appointed
by the governor for the term IL four
yeals, with SO, 600 annual salary. They
are empowered to appoint three Deputy
commissioners for each city and
county with full authority to issue or
revoke all licenses. IL also grades the
license from $500 to 81 900 and divides
the license revenues about as they are
now between. county and state. Under
this bill, with a partisan excise commits.
sion such as must come from partisan
executive, Mr.. Lemon would simply re-
duce the liquor interests Of the whole
state to abject party servitude. and it is a
measure that no Just legislator could
entertain favOrably for a moment.
There are admitted defects in the pres
ent license law. but in spite Of its defect.
it has worked well and given general sat
isfaction to the public Il will doubtless
work even better the second year thar

with it beyond the correction of
/ few fragrant defects, the more respect tn,

to change the general features of the new
license system should be resolutely OPP
posed and one supplemental bill SHOULD
be carefully prepared to meet the neces
stiles of the case. Above all let tn
Legislature avoid general or promiscuou
tinkering with the license system. Il i

THE difference between European and
American diplomacy is simply matter of
honesty The European diplomats are
trained to deceive. frequently they lie,
and they are never honest and candid.
The Secretary of State and all Of his
subordinates are chosen for their ability
and high character With this difference
in men IL is not difficult to explain some
Of the complications which occur be
tween Secretary Bayard and Prince
Bismarck. The truth is that there was
an agreement-not treaty-between
Prince Bismarck and Mr.. Bayard which
was honestly made and honorably ad.
hered to by the one and dishonesty made
and dishonorably broken by the other 1t
is not that the ability of the Prince is so
great that he has over-reached Mr.. Bay
ard but because he has said one
thing and done another thing.
The principles of statecraft in the
United States are Numerically opposed
to the principles which prevail in Europe,
especially in Germany and Russia At
the very time when Bismarck was pro
Tossing TO preserve absolute neutrality in
Samoa his son was financially Interested
in the German Plantation Company
there. Such intrigue and
double dealing can never prevail
in American craftsmanship because pub.
lie men do not train with intent to
deceive The matter has come before
the whole peoplenow and the Indignation
is rapidly cumulating against Bismarck
for having lied and betrayed Mr. Bayard
and not against Mr.. Bayard for believing
that the Prince Of the German Empire
was an honest man

THE London Times says. English

value of Prince Bismarck's assertion that
Germany is absolutely At one with Eng
