THE famous decision of the supreme
courts is subjected to various interpre-
tations and during the several weeks
which have elapsed since it was handed
down advocates of the various methods
for the control of the liquor traffic have
each found something in it for their
consolation. These interpretations
have been both violent and crude and
coupled with many Incorporate and
hypercritical utterances. The law in
vests non-residents of Iowa with pow
ers of which her own citizens are de-
prived, in that he may ship liquor in
and sell it broadcast in the manner in
which it is imported. A resident of
Iowa is subject to the laws of the state
for his disposal of it. Pursuing the
same line of reasoning, it is inferred
that nonresident may sell it without
payment of license, in case a municipal
corporation should attempt to exact
such levy upon his profits. In this de-
gree the decision nullifies both the IL
cense and prohibitory laws of the state.
If non-reSidents choose they may by
cautious dealing flood the state with
wet goods. The sum of the various
enactments leaves the matter in a cry
unsatisfactory condition, when the sell
timents of our people may be violated
and insulted with legal sanction of the
nation. The conditions are anomalous
if not contradictory, when state law
pronounced constitutional by the high
est tribunal is virtually nullitied in ia
vor of non residents by an edict of the
same authority. Liquor legislation
will not long remain in its present
status. Something more consistent,
some policy of greater sympathy be.
tween the nation and state must be
wrought out. Whether that better con-
dition shall be deferred until national
restriction shall prevail or whether the
nation by legislation shall subject I

can answer. Certain it is that the con-

who ply the trade for profit will seek
the places in which it is approved by /

proceed and the best that is practical
will finally prevail.

The Illinois Cyclone.

THE following precocious paragraph

time has gone by when any President

Gen. Harrison shall be nominated again,
he will be beaten. Not that he shall
not deserve reelection, for he will
But he will, in the discharge of his plain
duty, offend enough people and enough
of influential interests to defeat him.
The fact that he is making an admir-
able president will not count. 1t is
hard for any man who does his duty in
great office to be rechosen, and it is
the best evidence that he does his duty
that he has provoked strong opposition.
