Original Package Saloons.

Chicago Inter Ocean.
Original package saloons are spring
ing up in Iowa and Kansa as and may
prove contagious. The extent to which
the recent supreme court decision may
go before all is over cannot be forecast
1t may be absolutely revolutionary in
character, except as arrested by act of
congress. The states having prohibition
are not alone interested.
In Chicago the saloon license is $500.
In many places in the state it is high
er still, and in others again no license
at all is gran ted. In all cases the law.
as matters now stand, can be evaded
without much trouble. Chicago reaches
the Indiana state line on the south, and
is divided from Michigan by the lake of
the same name. If wholesale liquor
dealer i'll Chicago saw fit to start a
branch house in Hammond, st. Joe or
Michigan City to fill orders from origi-
nal package saloons in Chicago, Joliet
or anywhere else, it might result in the
establishment of a large number of no.
license saloons conducted in defiance of
the police laws of the state. The prac-
teal effect of this decision may be con-
fined to the pIohibitory states, but is by
no means certain to be.
Congress ought to be prompt in the
passage of the bill reported to the SEN
ate by the Judiciary committee restor-
ing to the states the police power in
question, as it obtained prior to the de-
Cision. 1t must not be al owed to jostle
the regular business out Of its order and
work. defeat in that class of legislation,
but all practical expedition should be
resorted to.
Events are rapidly and alarmingly
juStifying the practical argument
against that decision so we'll put by
Justice Gray, in these words of warn
ing to the bench:
''Ifthe statutes of state restricting or
prohibiting the sale of intoxicating
liquors within its territory are to be
held imperative and void as applied to
liquors sent or brought from another
state adm sold by the importer in what
are called original packages, the conse-
quence must be that an inhabitant of
any state may, under the preteXt of in
terstate commerce, and without license
or supervision Of any public authority,
carry or send into and sell in any or all
of the other states of the Union intoxI-
eating liquors of whatever description,
in cases or kegs, or even in single bot
ties or TASKS, despite any legislation of
those states on the subject, and although
his own state should be the only one
which had not enacted similar laws" 4

THE KISS IN SCHOOL.

A district school, not far away
Mid Berkshire hills, one winters day
Was humming with its WOnted noise
Of three-score mingled girls and boys.
Some few upon their task intent,
But more on furtiye mischief bent;
The while the masters downward look
Was fastened on copy book,
When suddenly, behind his back,
Rose sharp and clear a rousine smack
AS 'twere battery of bliss
Let off in one tremendous kiss.

''That thir.'' little imp replies,

with frown to make statue thrill,
The master Numbered, "Hither WHIP
Like wretch oretakep in his track
With stolen chattels On his back,

And to the awful presence came
A great green bashful simpleton,
The butt of all good-natured fun

That you. my biggest pupil, should
Be guilty of an act so rude

NEED TO ORGANIzE-

So far as the political machine is con-
cerned, the Republicans in Iowa are
moving wisely. The state committee has
devised system based modelled on that
of the Republicans of Indiana, and will
urge its adoption at the early state
gathering called. They concede that
they have desperate struggle before
them to save the state, and they hope to
do it by rebuilding and renovating the
machine, putting in all the modern i'm
provements. As first point, they
will put the management in fewer
hands. The congressional, judicial,
senatorial and representative commit
tees are all to be eliminated. and a sim
gle committee in each county is to CO.
operate with the state committee. The
county committee will provide for the
lower parts of the system that extends
to the school district, and defines the in
dividual voter. The Republicans have
won many of their successes in the close
and contested states by the agency of
their superior organization. 1t has been
apparent that in these states they nave
usually had the more comprehensive
and efficient organization. In no state,
perhaps, has either party put as much
architecture and science into the polit-
zeal machinery aS'in Indiana. The DO
litical disposition of every voter has
been known, and if uncertain, the argu-
ments most likely to be effective have
been brought into requisition. Refer
ence is not now had to the illegitmate
methods OF the DUDLEYs and boodlers.
1t is probable that the actual number of
voters who can be bought with money
at the last moment is much smaller than
is sometimes alleged, for it has been
noted that the information of the COM
mlttees before the election, where there
was the most perfect organization, has
often been exceedingly close to the
actual result. 1t was an evidence
of the completeness of the organ
iZation, as it comprised not only a po-
litical census, but the agencies for
polling the entire vote. In a political
campaign organization has much the
value it has in the battle ordeal. 1t is
rare that a popular mob can overpower
much smaller compact and disciplined
force. The special need of the Demo
cratic party in Minnesota is an organi-
cation OF the kind the Republicans
will have in Iowa. No organization
worthy of the name has ever been had
in half the counties. AT the last cleo
ton Democratic votes were lost at
many polls from lack of local agencies
to supply tickets. The Australian sys-
TEN, when adopted, Will obviate this
difficulty. There is no doubt of the
success of the Democrats next Novem-
Der if they have even fair organiza-
ton. 1t takes labor and some money to
secure thorough organization, and the
Republicans have in most states had
the most money. The opportunity
will be favorable this year for the Dem
ocrats to lay the foundation of an eff
fective organization.

COST MORE AT HOME.

There have been some recent attempts
to explain away and belittle the charge
that the people who are wanting more
tariff protection are Offering to sell many
classes of goods to foreigners at very
marked discount from the figure they
are able to struggle hardly with at
home. These reductions are alleged to
range from 10 to 50 per cent. 1t has
been insisted that this was all mis-
take. The goods sold abroad so cheaply
as American were cheap limitations not
made in this country. This heory
seems to be good as a theory. but fail
ure in the region of fact. Advertising
sheets are produced, made up in New
York and designed exclusively for
foreign use, which hold out great in
ducements to foreign people to buy.
One large manufacturer states that his
firm will sell single machines to
buyers abroad at 10 per cent below the
wholesale rates to the domestic buyer.
Another states that his prices to the
home trade are 10 per cent higher than
the foreign, with some favor in ship
tping to the latter. The New York
Price Current has an export supple
ment that contains about every utensll,
implement, vessel or ware for use in
house, barn or in the field, that are of.
fered to the foreign trade at figures
from 10 to 25 per cent below the rates
to wholesalers at home. Perhaps it
may be said that the manufacturer has
to compete abroad with other countries
just as the farmer has to with his wheat
and grain, and he needs the monopoly
of the home market to make profits. 1t
may be rough on the farmer, but he is
used to it. In fact, he is ''stuck"
on the home market idea, and is
pretty apt to vote to keep competi-
ton out of it. But he is to have his
wheat protected, so that it can have the
home market just as it always has had.

since the lot of cards was rejected in
March last. Mr.. Wilkinson was then
making the paper, and its quality was
not considered up to the sample upon
which the contract was awarded. Since
that time the paper has been purchased
from the Russell Paper company and
sent to Birmingham, Conn.,. where Mr..
Daggett's postal card manufactury was
located. The cost of shipping the paper
has been a heavy one, and now that
Mr.. Daggett can use the paper made in
the same place where the cards are
printed he will be able, he states, to
supply the department with all the
cards needed.
