TO BE OBSERVED AS
ARBOR DAY.

And recommend to the people Of this State that
upon that occasion they engage in the work Of
planting trees and shrubbery for 'the adornment
OF public and private'grounds, places and ways"
and that they:give careful thought and attention
to the important subject Of forest culture and
preservation.
Especially should this day be faithfully OBJ
served by our institutions of learning that its les
sons may be early acquired by the coming gener-
alton. Whatever we may be able to do in en-
hancng the great natural beauties of our State,
will prove of value not only as an additional at
traction to the rapidly increasing number Of those
who annually seek summer rest and recreation
within its borders, but to an even greater extent
as wholesome and refining influence among our
people,
1t will be remembered that whatever we may
successfully do in the observance of this da!
will not only be a pleasure to ourselves but ;
source of comfort and enjoyment to future genel
lions. tsar
Given at the Council Chamber at August;
this twenty-frst day of April, in the yea
of our Lord one thousand eight hundre
and ninety. and of the Independence
the United States of America, the on
hundred and fourteenth.

The practical difficulties in the way of tax
ing advantage of the original package de
cision were illustrated in the case of the Bos-
ton wholesaler who undertook to lay claim to
package of liquor seized in Lewiston. In
the first place it was incumbent upon the
claimant to show that the liquors in question
were imported and were in the original
package. The former was easy because no
liquors are manufactured in this State; the
second the claimant found more difficult; but
with these points established the claimant
was far from making out a case. because the
United States court decision did not directly
override our statute but statute of Iowa,
and therefore our inferior courts are still
bound to treat our law as constitutional in
every particular and apply it as usual until
it has been held by our Supreme Court or by
the Supreme Court Of the United States to
be in conflict with the fundamental law of
the country. OF course the Lewiston case
has put the matter in a position for the Su-
preme Court of the State to rule upon, but
until that court does rule inferior courts
and all prosecution offices are bound to treat
our prohibitory law as constitutional in all
| its details.

I Gov. Hill of New York has just sent a
special message to the legislature recon-
mending that the settlement of contested cleo
tion cases be taken from the legislature and
handed over to the courts. The Governor
thinks such change would promote fair
ness in the decision of such cases. The
idea is not original with the Governor, it is
unnecessary to say. The plan has frequently
been recommended in regard to contested
congressional elections. 1t has merits, but
ON the other hand it has defects. In the
first place it is difficult to bring about such
change without constitutional amendment,
because to be effective the legislature must
abdicate its right to judge of the election of
its own members, which it cannot do except
by constitutional amendment OF course
the question might be sent to the courts for
trial, and the legislature might be guided by
the result, but the acceptance of the courts
decision would be purely voluntary, and
could not be enforced. A greater objection
must necessarily involve politics, would tend
to discredit the courts. The defeated party
would charge the court with partisanship,
t the feeling would up in
the community that the courts decisions of
these questions were as partisan as the leg
islature's are now believed to be. This would
hurt the court, and the people wouldn't be
any better satisfied than they are now.
There is reason for suspicion that Hill was
animated in this case not SO much by any
desire or expectation that his suggestion
would be adopted. as by the hope that it
might give him some reputation as re-
former. But it is rather late for him to at
tempt to pose In that character.

Mr.. Grover Cleveland says he did not use
the coarse expressions regarding Mr.. Dana Of
the Sun, attributed to him in the recent
World interview, while Mr.. Crawford, the
reporter, affirms that he did, and. further
more, AYERS that he used even coarser ex.
pressions than any of those published. AS
the matter now stands it is question of We
racity between Mr.. Cleveland and Mr.. Craw-
ford; and there is not likely to be any eyi
dence forthcoming that will alter the issue.

No doubt there was a great lack of appli-
ances for extinguishing fire in the Quebec
asylum, which was burned with such fearful
consequences on Tuesday, and very likely
not sufficient watchfulness was observed by
the managers Of the institution. But the
gathering Of 1900 insane patients in one
building was grievous mistake in itself,
ana 1t was inevitable If panic were created
among them that many would perish.

New England has now about all the adverse
legislation which she can successfully endure. If
the project to put the Canadian railroads trans
porting freight between the West and New Eng
land under the interstate law is successful, moth
ing will be left to this section OF the country of adj
vantage and the load of unjust freigt discrimina.
lions now imposed upon New England by the rail-
roads between here and Chicago, will remain.
This LOAD + grte tMs unjust ama
sioners has been called TO it. They admit that
the evil exists, but nothing is DONE and the inter-
law + Sfa n q

| England. Now, If our only resource of unimpeded
freight traffic through the Canadas is cut off, BoS
| ton and New England will be unalterably sad

and the West now , exacted BY the roads lying
This is an important subject, and deserving OF
all attention. If the interstate law is extended so
as TO purpoSely hamper the Canadian roads in the
handling of our traffic, it win prove that the wis.
| est men in New England predicted would be the
| case. the greatest obstacle which has ever been
placed in the path of New England's progress.

the alert to defeat Senator Cullom's railroad plan

| There is no city in New England more
deeply interested in the matter discussed
above than Portland. A Gripping of the
Grand Trunk would inflict upon this city 9
very severe blow, while whatever expecta
tions of future benefit to be derived from {
connection with the Canadian Pacific exis
would be defeated by legislation that wouls
hamper that railroad. The only beneficial
ries of such legislation as Senator Cullon
proposes would be the American trunk lines
and it is doubtful even if it would do thea
any appreciate good. Their troubles ar
due, not to the competition of the CANADIAN
railroads, but to the cut-throat polio
which prevails among themselves.
