unfortunate that the American people are

justice TO this country, and on the seal
hshery question they are carefully and
Systematically misled by interested par

the elaborate report on the subject was
issued by the Census Department in 1884.
THIS lucrative business is entirely in the
hands of the Alaska Company. No Brit

breeding grounds, but when the breed
ing season is over vast congregation of
seals dlsperses itself over an enormous
area In search of food.
The Victoria sealing fleet roams over
tnat area and takes its chances of encoun-
terlng single seals. 1t is thus catching
seals IN open sea, which the Americans

ANTI-LOTTERY LAW.
VIOLATORS CARRY THEIR CASES
TO THE SUPREME COURT.
Attorney-GeneraI Miller Files n Brief
on Behalf OF the Gov
ernment.
Special to the REcoRn-uN1oN.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1.-THE case of
the United States against John l.. Rapier
and two cases of the United States VS..
George w. Dupre will come up for argu-
ment at the October term Of the United
States Supreme Court. Each of these
cases is an application for discharge by
writ of habeas corpus from arrest for
alleged violation of the anti-lottery legis-
lation of the United States in mailing lot
terry advertisements. Judgment was
against the defendants, aud the cases
were appealed to the Supreme Court.
Attorney General Miller has prepared
a brief, which he will submit on behalf
of the Government.
"If it can be demonstrated,' says the
brief, that to prey upon ones, fellow
men by means of lottery is fundamental
of the human right. the Declaration of
Independence ought to be rewritten at
once" 81 maintain" continued the At
torney-General, without fear of success
full contradiction, that whatever acts or
enterprises Congress has power to make
criminal in tho Districts of Columbia or
the Territories, it may refuse directly or
indirectly to aid, encourage or abet in
any State without violating any obliga-
ton with the citizen or State. Any State
may make the practices of this lottery
company, or even the possession of its
tickets within its borders with intent to
sell, a crime. The Government exercises
this power of legislation in regard to the
mails, as in the exercise of many of it's
other legislative powers"
The Attorney General holds that Con-
gress has very broad discretion as to
whether it shall act at all, and if so when
and to what extent and for what purpose
it shall act. The Attorney-Genera then
argues to show that Congress has un-
doubtedly the right to legislate for the
common good of all, and says that sup
pose that, as is now an early probability,
postal telegraph should be established,
is it true that the United States Govern
ment would be under obligation to trans
NIT over its telegraph lines messages in
reference to all business or practices not
indictable at common law, or not known
to the law-books as n1dtd IN seq Could it
not refuse to transmit kilograms boldly
relating to gambling transactions, trading
upon margins in wheat or stocks, or me-
gotiating the purchase and sale of lottery
tickets, or in regard to any other busi-
ness which III the exercise of sound dis
cretion Congress may declare to be
contra 6OR0S nlOreS?
upon the theory of the argument of
the petitioners that the publishers of
newspapers have an absolute right to
carriage in the mails, and that any dis
elimination against them is abridging
the freedom Of the press, then all postal
regulations by which letters are given
precedence over newspapers in the mails,
even in time of carriage and distribution,
are invalid. This is certainly discrimi-
nation against the newspapers, and
might be held to be abridging the
freedom of the press"
