The Original Package Woes,

The adjournment of the House OF
Representatives Monday on ac~
count Of the death of James P.
Walker, of Missouri, prevented a
vote on the original packages bill.
Even after it is passed by the House.
which will probably be to-day or
this week sometime, the differences
between the House and the Senate
may take some time for settlement.
So the now authorized violations of
State liquor laws will enjoy their
peculiar privileges for some weeks
longer.
No recent determination of the
Supreme Court has brought forth
such host of opinions from all
kinds and conditions of judicial
persons, ranging from petty Justices
to United States District Judges, as
has the "original packages" decision.
Hardly day passes but what the
echo of it's effect on local affairs
comes from Maine IN the East to
Oregon in the West. The centre Of
the Indignation at present seems to
be in Topeka, Kas., but this centre
shifts, as communities that have
long enjoyed local option prohibi-
ton find themselves confronted by
the leering face of an "original
packages" rum hole.
South Dakota, however, rejoices
in recent decision that, as the
Stale was admitted after the inter-
state commerce law was passed, the
enabling act of Congress practically
sanctioned the prohibition clause in
the State Constitution, and hence
"original packages saloons are
outred, temporarily az least. from
South Dakota, and this ruling ap-
plies with equal force to the other
new States that adopted prohibition.
IF the Supreme Court sustains this
view OF the District Court, the new
States will enjoy manifest super
iority in the management of the
liquor question, at least, over the old
ones, and thus point out to hasten
Congressional action on the "origin-
al packages" bill.
Another reason for action by Con-
gress is shown in the determination
of the temperance people, finding
no redress from their wrongs in a
recourse to legal measures, to take
the law in their own hands. This
lawlessness on the side Of high
morals is, of course, not widespread,
but is confined to certain localities.
Alabama comes to the front, as is
her want, with recourse to the
ever favorite ostracsm method which
is used all through the South to get
rid OF all sorts of people, from Re
publicans and United States officials
down to local desperadoes. A Ger.
tain James Ward, it seems, opened
an "original packages" shop in a
little temperance village of Alabama,
and was accordingly warned to leave
the town by the best "citizens. "
Ward did not move nor close his
shop, SO dynamite was used and, as
far as the shop was concerned, re-
moved 1t most effectuallv, but Ward
is still there and insists on his legal
rights.

The PoIitics That Is in 1t.
The leading Republican pal

The leading Republican papers
comment on Mr.. Blaine's letter to
Senator Frye assailing certain fea.
lures cf che Mckinley Tariff bill
variouslv-some with unqualiged
appreciation, others regretfully be-
cause it did not make its appearance
earlier, and others still doubtingly
as to the prscticability of the writer's
ideas. On the whole there is as
great degree of hnanimity among
Republican journals in favor of the
proposal as there is regarding ques-
tions in general-the Tariff bill as it
stands, or as it was before the Senate
committe overhauled it; the Elec>
tion bill; the Silver bill, and so on.
AS to the interest that has been
awakened in the question of recipro-
CITY, there is no doubling. That it
will become great question in the
near future is obvious. 1t may even
play an important part before the
people, in platforms and at elections.
Mr.. Blaine, it is understood, will
have considerable more to say, and
as the discussion in Congress, which
the Mckinley bill is destined to un-
dergo progresses, Mr.. Blaine's prop
osition and the reasons therefor will
receive examination at the hands of
both parties. No little interest at
taches to what Democrats like
Carlisle and Mills will have 10 say
concerning them. AS a political
element the question may be destin-
cd to play an important part in flu
ture contests. 1t is not at all likely
that MIR. Blaine's ideas will be al
lowed to go unopposed by political
economists and leaders. 1t is al
ready evident that there are in both
parties not few who are ready to
embrace them, while others will op-
pose them. There is a large measure
of party politics in Mr.. Blaine's
ideas.

LECONEY MURDER.
A Camden COlOred Man Charged
with the Crime.

CAMDEM, IN. d., July It. ne
discovery of the slayer of poor
Annie Leconey may result from a
marital misunderstanding between
colored couple residing at Tioga
and Vanhook streets. Rebecca
Dunn appeared before Justice Ches-
ter, charging her husband, Joseph
Dunn, with assault and battery.
Mrs. Anna Durham, mother of
Mrs. Dunn, has made sworn state
ment before Justice Chester which
is likely to implicate Joseph in the
murder of Annie Leconey.
THE MoTHER-IN-LAw' STATEMENT.
In her sworn statement Mrs. Dur
ham says that Joseph told her that
two years ago he enticed a young
colored man from Swedesboro to
Philadelphia. At that time Dunn
said he was connected with a gang
known as the "Killers." The
Swedesboro man incurred the i'll
feeling Of Dunn and the other mems
bers of the gang. Dunn, she says
told her that he cut tn yonng man s
throat and dragged him into water
closet down town and set him up on
seat, in which position he was
afterward found. Mrs. Durham
says she notified the authorities of
this statement, but no action was
taken. In the same affidavit Mrs.
Durham says that her son-in-law
was formerly employed by Chalkley
Leconey, by whom he was AFTER
ward discharged.
When Dunn came home lie growle6
about the money he had received,
and declared there was plenty of
money at Leconey's and he was
going to get some oft. All he asked
was to get certain obstruction out
of the way. He declared he now
saw chance to get money. This
was a week or so before the murder
of Annie Leconey.
GETTING EVEN WITH CHALKLEY.
Mrs. Durham says she did not
see Dunn again until the Sunday
night before the murder, when
Dunn was at home for short time
and again disappeared.
Two weeks after the murder Mrs.
Durham saw Joe on the opposite
side of the street. He had returned
from some place unknown, and was
dressed differently from what she
had ever seen him dress, and he was
accompanied by two other colored
men.
He told Mrs. Durham he had the
money, sail but what has been paid
to them what's got to hold their
tongue"
Mrs. Durham says Joe told her if
he ever committed murder he would
never wear the bloody clothes away,
but would leave them in such man
ner as would throw suspicion on
Chalkley Leconey, for whom he
seemed TO hold an intense hatred.
Mrs. Durham describes her son-in.
law as an inveterate thief. She says
he is a brute who has repeatedly
threatened to cut his wife's throat,
and boasred that murder had no
terrors for him. Dunn has served
several years in the penitentiary
and is n bad character. Friends OF
Chalkley Leconey believe he is An
MES murderer.

Col. Hulings ON DeIamater.

Col. Willis J. Hulings, of the
Sixteenth regiment. N. G. p, was
in Pittsburg on Wednesday of last
week, and in response to the Com
mercial GaSette's inquiries he said:
"There is no valid reason why any
Republican should not vote for
Delamater. I Iregard him as one of
the Ievelest-h headed, coolest and
uerviest men of my acquaintance.
He has elements ofpower and capac-
tiles of growth 20 measure up to any
emergency that may require abili-
tv, cool Judgment and tact. His
friends will be surprised at his re-
sources, and his opponents will be
overwhelmed when they begin to
draw his fire. His ability and Judge
ment as q business man all, even his
foes. must admit. His integrity of
purpose, honesty of intention, and
moral courage to act on the strength
of his own convictions of what he
conceives to be his duty every man
who knows him will attest"
Mr.. Hulings thinks the nomina-
tion of ex Gov. Pattison, by the
Democrats was with the hope of get
ting the support of dissatisfied Re-
publicans, but that will not work.
He maintains that Delamater will be
elected by the regular old time
majority.
