APATERNALISTIC LAW.

a majority of almost one hundred
thousand Texans declared against pro-
hibition in this state as applied to
whisky. In the contest that was de-
cided by that vote the argument OF
those who were opposed to prohibition
was that it was an unwarranted inter-
ference with the liberty of the citizen.
AS 10 the evils that resulted from the
selling OF intoxicating liquors no de-
Tense was made. Nobody denied that
it was bad thing, but, admitting that
it was such. that it was injurious to
public morals and opposed to the gen.
eral welfare, it was contended that any
law which prohibited any man from
engaging in the whisky-selling business
was such an assault upon the liberties
of the citizen as to be more injurious
to civil government than the evil it was
sought to remedy. The great mass OF
citizens must have taken this view OF
the matter, for they pronounced against

BE WISE IN TIME. :

Representative Crisp OF Georgia
made powerful bid for the speaker
ship in his Fourth Of July speech to
New York's Tammany. His criticism
OF the tariff was such as might be ex-
pected from an ambitious Democrat
when speaking for the general ear. It
was such speech as Senator German
himself would make under like circum-
stances, although it would not faith
fully announce his true sentiments on
that subject. There are two things
against Crisp as candidate for
speaker. He Is being championed by
the small minority of tariff Democrats
who, like German, would prefer to leave
the tariff as it is, rather than to reduce
it to the extent deemed wise by Carlisle
and others. Crisp's claims TO the title
Of tariff retormer are seriously ques-
toned by the bulk OF the party, by the
men who have devoted their best ener-
gies to the cause. They distrust him
because of his hackers, and because he
has never proved his faith by his works,
as they have.
In the second place, he comes from
the extreme South. That is against
him, regardless OF his abilities and fit
ness. The honor OF the place is not
worth the price to be paid for it. 1t
furnishes the political bigots of the
North with 4 welcome pretext for re-
peating the detestable old howls against
1.-THE brigadiers," and for firing the
Northern heart anew. We had a most
narrow escape at the last session of
congress from the Infamous force bill,
a measure that sprung from the asser-
ton OF policy that, if repeated, might
terminate differently the next time.
Don't shake any more red rags at
Northern bulls. That is the moral of
the Fifty-frst congress.

prohibition by majority OF almost
one hundred thousand votes.

prohibition by a majority OF almost
one hundred thousand votes.
There are different kinds Of prohibi-
ton. 1t is not necessarily limited to
dealings in whisky. Any law that pro-
hibits the citizen from doing q thing
that is not in itself crime-an act
mala in se-is a prohibitory law, and is
an attack upon the rights of the citi-
zen. The alien land law is such law.
Its effect is to prohibit the citizen from
borrowing money from certain persons
or corporations. The friends OF that
law, and notably its putative author,
Mr.. Gossett, uphold it by the assertion
that it is intended to keep people from
mortgaging themselves beyond the
power OF redemption. They say people
are going too deep in debt, and law of
this kind is needed to put stop to that
business.
This, it will strike the thoughtful
reader, is the very summit of pater-
nalism. The state takes upon itself to
protect the citizen from his own rash
ness. He shall not borrow English or
Scotch money at or per cent, be-
cause he might borrow more than he
could ever pay and thereby involve
himself in trouble. 1t is wrong to make
law to keep whisky out of his reach,
because if he wants to drink himself to
death that is his own business, and re-
gard for personal liberty viii not allow
the state to interfere. But there is
nothing wrong with restraining him
from borrowing foreign money, and his
personal liberty must in tais case be
surrendered because the state, or the
states statesmen, hold that he is liable
to hurt himself if he is not checked
If the alien land law is not a pater-
nalistic law, what is it?

STAGE PLAY AT GALVESTON.

The question whether legislative
committee has the power to compel
witnesses to testify, or to punish them
for refusal or for contumacy, is deli
cate one TO handle. 1t has been done,
but with disastrous results. In certain
contingencies it may be allowable. But
that is the nice point in the case Of the
International and Great Northern in
vestigating committee, who will ask
the encouragement whether they
have the power TO compel Messrs. Bon
ner and Whitaker TO testify about
something told them by one connected
with The receivership. This some
thing is said to be very serious and
very important, and should be known
to the committee. Why did they not
tell it? Because, forsooth, the gentle
man who was goose enough to impart
it to them, might return to the witness
stand and deny it! Then where would
they be? As they had no way OF cor
roborating their statement, they would
be discredited, and that would be awful.
But some of their statements about
other things made on the witness
stand had been contradicted or re-
futed. Why, therefore, should they
have been SO cautious about matter of
such dire Importance? Besides, there
were two OF them to one of him. They
had at least the advantage Of numbers.
Why impeach by anticipation the
credibility of their own testimony by
refusing to meet him on the witness
stand, two to one? These are few OF
the simple and obvious questions that
plain and unsophisticated people will
ask concerning the strange and pictur-
esque conduct OF these two witnesses.
Doubtless they will, in the absence of
satisfactory answers, conclude that the
whole thing was silly bit of stage play
reserved for the windup, and designed
for popular effect. They knew some
thing but declined to tell it, lest some
body should contradict them That
was grand coup, to be sure. Why
mention the matter at all, If they dare
not testify about it without having
their testimony impeached at hands
turn? And it is by such idle child's
play as this that Judge Gerald's wit
nesses hope 10 smirch men at least as
good as themselves. What could not
be accomplished by hard swearing on
the witness stand, they tried to COM
pass by ugly inuendo and dark insinua-

with the actual state of Democratic senti-
mcnt in New York. There, as elsewhere
the politicians are either against Mr.
Cleveland or frigid toward him, but he has
Il hold upon the masses of the people that
nothing has vet shaken, and which in New
York and the East generally has steadily
grown stronger during the past two years
There cannot be the slightest doubt that in

Cleveland is the most popular living Amer

Blaine nor Eill-can pretend TO compete
with him, and if they did the contrary
would be shown on every public occasion.
