Stole Brass Journals.

Yesterday afternoon, Rosario Sartario, an Italian, was trying to sell nineteen brass car journals at Corey & Downes' foundry on Chapel street. He acted rather sus- piciously and Officer Higgins placed him under arrest. At the precinct he said he bought the journals from persons on the street. Nine of the journals were new and one of them bore the casting stamp of J. Graham & Co.,, and the Boston and Albany railroad mark. He was locked up and the police are investigating.

SAILS FOR EUROPE TO-DAY. Departure of NIT. Charles E. Dobson
 for England.

T. 11. DTdu16y street sails to-day for England, his old home, where he will make his future resi- dence for some time. MT. Dobson came to New Haven about eight years ago, and during his residence here has worked on the Palladium as compositor. He is a rapid and careful workman and left the imprint of thoroughness on everything he handled. MT. Dobson will be missed among his former companions, as he is a genial and gentlemanly fellow. He was we'll known in athletic circles, having been connected with the New Haven gymnasium and the Y. M. c. A. He was also a mem- Der of the New Haven Cricket club, and and has displayed much skill and strength in the English game. While his many friends are reluctant to see him go, they all wish him godspeed and 6 safe voyage over the briny deep.

No law can pay mans private
debts, or put money in his pocket.
These statements, as self-evident as
they are, need to be repeated occas-
ionally to those men who have an
idea that it is possible to be idle and
at the same time prosperous, by
means of legislation. The citizens
support the State and it is only the
paupers who are or who can be sup
ported by the State.-Winona Times.
But law can take money out of q
mans pocket though and give it as q
subsidy to one who has no moral
right to it. If only 1.-The paupers are
supported by the state" what about
the untaxed bondholders who are
supported in that way, and for whose
benefit money is taken from the
pockets of taxpayers while bond
holders pay no taxes.
Nearly 800, 600, 900 taken from the
productive industries of the country
by an unjust and oppressive system OF
taxation, has been for years turned
over to pet national banks without
interest, to be by them loaned out to
the very industries that have been
taxed to raise it, ut from to "a per
cent per annum. These facts would
seem to indicate that the govern
ment has to care for some pretty ro-
bust paupers, and that the editor OF
the Winona Times is strange CON-
pound of liar, knave and fool.

both the metals. At the same time a
high price for silver here means high
prices for wheat and cotton; If, on
the other hand, the price Of silver
falls, the exports of agricultural pro-
duce to Europe from silver using Asia
are stimulated at the expense of the
American farmer. In desiring to see
the price OF silver higher the Farmers
Alliance party is well advised"
THE reasons here offered by Mr..
Frewen why free coinage will neither
flood the American minis with foreign
silver nor drive gold out of the coun-
try are indisputable. They have
been frequently stated by American
bilnetallists, and they acquire new
force from their reiteration by SO dis
tinguished political economist as
Mr.. Frewen. Yet while the reasons
are unassailable, and while it is as
certain as that two and two make
four that the United States can with
free coinage of both metals maintain
them at a parity at the present ratio,
the gold mono-metallists will con-
tinue to affirm that free coinage
would contract ana depreciate the
currency. The absurdity Of this con-
tention has been exposed thousan DIS
of times, but like Goldsmith's village
schoolmaster, its supporters, while
vanquished, insist upon adhering to
it. The strength Of their following
illustrates that in this distance "a lie
we'll stuck is as good as the truth. -

The Beauties Of Prohibition.

In his speech at Spirit Lake Satur-
day, Gov. Boies, as illustrative of the
oppression often resulting from the en-
forcement Of the prohibitory law,
cited the case of Craig, Of Mount
Pleasant, whose daughter died Of
misery and want while her father
lay in jail under fine Of $500 i'm
posed for selling thirteen glasses of
beer. and the father also dying from
the effect OF his confinement soon af-
ter sentence was suspended.
There are many instances through
out the state where the severity Of
the operation OF the prohibitory law
has been such that those not person
ally acquainted with the facts would
scarcely believe that such things
could really have taken place in Iowa.
Women have been assaulted in their
homes by constables who were search
ing for liquor. Men have been shot
down by THESE same officers for at
tempting to defend their homes
against unlawful intrusion. The sick
have been assaulted, and the we'll
dubbed by fellows clothed with the
authority of the prohibitory law.
And though they have assaulted men,
women and children, MANNED and
even killed law abiding citizens, these
prohibition constables have never
been punished. They have not even
been arrested, except in one or two
instances.
Such outrages as these have been
frequent enough during the past six
years. But what would be the con-
dition under state constabulary law
such as the republicans intend to en-
act should they get control Of the
legislature? The killing and MAIN
ing Of women and children as we'll as
Of men would then be Of daily occur
renee. No mans home. no mans life,
would be safe. The bullies and thugs
Of every community would be made
constables and the rights of law-abi-
ding citizens swept away. The con-
dition OF the people Of Iowa would
then be no better than that Of the
peasants OF Russia. And yet It is to
that very condition the republican
party is working to reduce the peo-
OF this state. That is the meaning Of
republican success in Iowa this year.

The reason the Cedar Rapids Ga
zette, the republican daily paper of

Boies to Wheeler for governor is
that there is a good many political
eggs in the republican nest that never
ought to be hatched.'

Gov. Boles on Enforcement,

The governor, in his Spirit Lake
speech, paid his respects to the news.
paper critics who have assailed him
for not stringently enforcing the pro-
hibitory law. The governor remin-
ded them that he had no more legal
power to enforce the prohibitory law
than any private citizen of the state.
He could as private citizen appear
before a magistrate, file information
and begin an action; so could any Of
his republican critics, but
none of them appear to have thought
of this, or at least, If it has occurred
to them, they do not seem to have
been spurred to action thereby.
1.-The fact is said the governor,
land every intelligent citizen Of Iowa
knows it, the local civil officers in
each community are the only ones
having authority and power to en-
force this law. In communities
where the law is looked on with favor
officers of like views are chosen.
But in nearly one-half the counties
of the state contrary views prevail,
and consequently the law is openly
and flagrantly violated. This dis
graceful state of affairs is chargeable
to the republican party; they could
have changed it If they would. They
have had the control Of the legisla-
ture of the state, and could have re-
pealed the law, but have steadfastly
refused, and now their platform de
mands better enforcement OF the
law. How is this to be done? There
is but one way, and that is to take
the right of self-government away
from the various localities and de-
post it with some outside function
ary-probably the governor himself.
Are the people of Iowa ready to vote
away their liberties? II they are let
them vote the republican ticket this
year, for that is what the platform
tells us is the meaning of the republi-
can supremacy in Iowa this year"
