THE REFORM TEST.

The past week the Michigan state
senate passed a bill abolishing free
passes, and the local narrator states that
it is to go into immediate effect 1t is
inferred from the language that it has
already gone through the house, or the
large Democratic majority leaves ne
doubt as to its success there. The SEN
ate Is nearly equally divided in politics.
and has always heretofore killed bills of
this kind. 1t is evident the sentiment
will cut off the use of their passes by
the members on their return home.
The language is not eXtravagant when
this is pronounced one of the bravest
acts of legislation the record of state
legislatures affords. The members can
30 to the people and with nigh conf
dence claim this as the browning feat
ure of the record promised of them as
reformers. They will have an adyan-
tage over the reform legislatures in
Wisconsin, North and South Dakota,
and another state or two.

GOOD TO TRY.

A branch of the Illinois system of
treating dipsomania, as a disease to be
eradicated from the system by the in
fusion of an antidote and few Access
series, has been established at Des
Moines, and promises to accomplish
good work. There is no reason why the
method may not be adopted in the hos
pitfalls or refOrmatory Institutions under
public control in any city. The chief
medicament is chloride of gold, and
there is not understood to be any secret
i'll its preparation or use. The evidence
is conclusive that the worst cases can be
cured in few days. To release a man
who is slave to the alcoholic appetite
and put him out of danger Of relapse,
except by deliberate and vicious pur-
pose, is certainly worth some effort.
Moral agencies are all right, but rarely
remove the cause of the inebriety, The
craving still remains, as a rule.

FORTUNATE FOR THEM.

Now that IL appears that Italy did
not mean TO be understood to have any
unfriendly feeling toward this country
In the little Spasm about New Orleans,
1t is easy to brace up and remember that
there was no nervous feeling over the
absurd and fantastic picture of enor-
nous and terrifying Italian war ships
coming over and brushing aside the lit
tie boats and small guns on this side,
and throwing at an unaSSailable distance
hot and heavy iron into the coast cities
in a very annoying way, Italy has i'm
posing-lOOking battle ships and guns
that in theory suggest fuli-working
volcano with earthquakes thrown in.
But the modern navy is only a theory.
1t has yet to pass the fiery ordeal There
has hardly been an essay in actual
service of the present engineery of the
navy of any great power. The par
tial test when the British fleet bonn
barded Alexandria was only fairly sat
iSfact0ry in weight of metal and pene-
tration. The incidents in Chill and
Peru do not afford any solution of ma
terial features of the problem. The
reviews had of the English naval forces
revealed alarming possibilities, and
threw hosts of beautiful theories into
confusion. The leviathans were unruly,
and receut tests have led to doubt as to
whether tie greatest damage would be
TO the enemy or the assailantS. The big
ships of Italy might succeed IN getting
over to this side, but would have small
chance to see their native land again.
If they came within annoying dis lance
and escaped the torpedoes and other
tttle affairs in the water, the NOR

New York had been abandoned from
lack of cause, although high-priced de-
lectlYeS and witnesses had been en-
pl0yed to blacken the character of the

Scene for the attempt, and ignominious

reason to believe that trouble would

POWER OF THE PRESS.
Value of Not Advertising in Our
Esteemed Contemporary, the
Pioneer Press.

Pioneer Press.
Editor E. Y. Smalley, the talented
editor Of the Northwest Magazine,
prints the following in his April publ
cation:
THE power of the press is often ey-
aggerated in the minds of the men who
control newspapers. A newspaper is
very strong when it voices q dominant
public sentiment, but when it tries to
stem the current Of settled and reason
able public opinion, it is sometimes of
no more force than all individual has
. under the same circumstances. There
was an instance of this fact lately in St.
Paul. \ or eat daily newspaper became
hostile to The Press club wear
ago because the club failed to
eject one of its editors president.
3The club survived. nevertheless. and
last month arranged benefit perform
ance at the Metropolitan Opera house
to raise money for furnishing its rooms.
The great newspaper refused to men
atiOn the club or its benefit in any way
whatever. 1t was as silent as the grave
on tue subject. All the theater mana
gers and actors in the Twin Cities came
forward with cordial offers of assist
ance. The benefit was q great event in
both the SOCIAL and amusement worlds
In spite Of the Surly silence Of the great
newspaper the house was thronged with
the best people in st. Paul. and the re-
ceipts were phenomenal. Next day the
great newspaper failed 10 let its readers
know that any such event had taken
place. Such Of its readers as were pres
eat were of course veXed at tire omiS-
sion. Their favorite sheet had often
preached to them that it is the business
OF 4 newspaper To print the news
whether it likes it or not. and yet be-
cause this particular piece of local news
ran counter 10 the wishes of the editor
ial management it was excluded. Now.

not affect tie receipts or the benefit per

A WOMAN in Philadelphia applies for
divorce on the ground that she was
hypnotized into matrimony. If that is
ground for divorce few marriages would
be secure. In all love cases it is to be
presumed that one or the other or both
parties are under the influence. Love
is sentimental phase of hypnotsm.

WARNER MILLER SAFE.
Though 1t is Thought His Steamer
is Lost.


New YORK, April 4.-The general
manager of the Nicaragua Canal con-
structi on company received this morn
ing a cable from Hon. Warner Miller at
GreytOwn, Mic, as follows: Arrived
Greytown Thursday morning the
second inst, per steamship Cara

The general manager stated that the
steamship referredstoin the above dis
patch was vessel sent from Corn
island to the Roncador reef, where the
steamship Agnan, with Mr.. Miller's
party, Ell route to Greytown, had
grounded on the Goth of March. The
dispatch contains no information as to
the fate of the steamship. 1t is not be-
lieved by the officers of the company
that the accident, which has caused the
detention of a week, will make any
change in the programme.

The Kansas Crops,

KANSAS Cry, June lit has been
raining throughout Kansas and Missouri
almost continuously for twenty-four
hours. The reports from these states
say the rain is a check on the ravages of
the H sssian fly and the chinch bug in
Kansas. Missouri reports no bugs, and
the wheat crop is said to be exceptionally
promising. Corn is a trife backward in
Missouri, but no damage has been done
to it. In Kansas the outlook for wheat
was never better. There has been some
little damage to crops in the southern
counties from insects, but the present
heavy rains are expected to both kill the
bugs and improve the crops. The gen.
eral manager of the largest wheat buy
ing firm in the west predicts the largest
crop in the history of the state. The
corn crop in Kansas gives exceptional
promise for a big yield, the recent
weather conditions being particularly
favorably for 1t.

mated in ashes in the rear of w. A. Seely

instantly. The warehouse was envel-
oped in flames. The fire then spread to

occupied by dealers in farm
machinery. The Great Northern depot
and one box car was consumed, and the

BUTTE. Mont, May 28.-George F.
Woolston, manager of the Butte electric
railway and cable lines, narrowly es-
capped the vengeance of a mob last even
ing, which followed him and his police
escort to- the jail several hundred strong,
throwing brickbats and shouting "Lynch
HIM" all the way from his office to the
county prison. Main street was filed
with men and it seemed their presence
there was by some preconcerted arrange
ment, so sudden did the crowd block the
streets. Conflicting stories are circu-
lated as to what incited the demonstra-
ton. Woolston found Conductor Boyle
of the cable line on his car, drunk and
unfit for duty. He was ordered off the
car and requested to go to the Office and
get his time, which he did. The office is
on the second floor, which is reached by
q flight of stairs. Boyle was PICKED up
at the bottom of the stairs and it is
feared he IS fatally hurt. Woolston said
Boyle fell down the stairway. Bystand-
ers say Woolston threw him down. The
friends of labor quickly espoused Boyle's
cause and it is impossible to get facts.
AS soon as the crowd dispersed. Wool
ston was admitted to bail.

false returns to the comptroller of cur
rency, making false entries in the banks
books and with the embezzlement of
100000 and upwards of the banks
funds. Henry H. Kennedy, CASH
Ter of the bank, was also
arraigned with his brother
charged with conspiracy with him and
beng guilty himself Of the first two
charges of the Indictment. In addition
