Chancellor McGill believes this to be
an English speaking State, if we may
thus interpret his decision in regard to
official advertising. The Newark Ad-
r~ertiser says lie has summarily knocked
In the head the flimsy argument advan-
ced in support of the law enacted by
the last Legislature, directing that GER
tain official advertisements should be
printed IN German newspapers. The
law in question makes it mandatory
upon the officer in charge of the sale of
real estate to publish all advertisements
OF sales and adjournments of sales in at
least one German newspaper which may
have been designated by law to publish
the statutes Of The State. 1t was urged
that Germans who do not read news
papers printed iE. the English language
had a right to be notified in their own
language of these sales. The Chan
cellor decides that it is legal and necess-
airy that the notices shall be printed in
a German newspaper; but they must be
printed in the English language! I'm.
der this decision the German adver-
tisement of a sale is held to he of no
effect, and q Reimbursement in the
English language is declared impera-
lively necessary. The decision will
cause some uneasiness among our Ger
man contemporaries who print the
laws, under the State authority. These
laws are always translated into the
German language and so appear in the
German newspapers. 1t may be urged
that if a notice of a sheriff's sale is not
legal when printed in the German lam
guage, neither is the publication of the
laws of the State when this is done in
German, under direction Of the State
authorities. BE this as it may, the
manifest wrong and injury which would
have resulted in compelling persons
having real estate to sell under a public
statute to advertise it in a newspaper
printed in language which is under
stood by only a handful of people in
every community cannot be calculated.
and Chancellor McGiil deserves the
thanks OF the whole people in his com
mon sense decislon.-W. j.. Press.

Georgia is Democratic state, and
yet the legislature has passed a law,
which has received the signature of
the governor. prohibiting the sale Of
liquer within three miles of any church
or school-house. This practically pro-
hibits the sale of liquor everywhere
throughout the state, except in the in
co~rporated cities, to which the act does
not apply. School-houses and churches
are close enough together to make it
difficult to find a spot where they can
open q saloon.

the country a service by trying to turn

no politics in such an Investigation; the

Editor Medill, of the Chicago Tri.
bme investigated the claim Of bichlor-
ide of gold as d cure for drunkenness
and is convinced that the remedy Is
effective, as the following from his pa.
per of the 18th will show:
"In order to be fully satisfied he Mr..
Medill selected several inveterate
d%runkards, the most hopeless and des-
perate dipsomaniacs he wasable TO find,
and sent them to Dwight for treatment
at his W expense as experimental
test case. When these poor slaves Of
alcoholic appetite were speedily restored
to sobriety, the terrible thirst for rum
eradieated, and came back cured men,
he ceased to be a doubling Thomas, and
opened the columns Of the Tribune
freely to others who also had been eur
ed to relate their personal experience
over their own signatures. He had
long regarded alcoholism in the nature
of disease, and was confirmed in that
opinion by conversation with eminent
physicians who had studied the subjec-
closely. He looked upon drunkenness
as a more terrible afiiction of the hut
man race than consumption, because
the latter limits its fatal stroke to the
victim alone, whereas the former scat
tiers ruin, misery, disgrace crime and
death all around it. Whoever by his
science can deliver the dipsomaniac of
the evil spirit which possesses him is
entitled to the credit of performing an
act akin to a miracle. The editor of
the Tribune is glad he has contributed
to the diffusion of a knowledge of the
bichloride of gold remedy since the be-
ginning of this year, for in that brief
time several thousand inebriates who
visited Dwight almost hopeless have
been restored to their famil les and
friends emancipated from their thrall-
dom and cured of their terrible disease.

After six years of freedom from
license, five saloons were opened in
Bridgeton on Tuesday evening. The
new County Excise Board met that af-
ternoon and fixed the fee for inn and
tavern licenses at $500, and that for Ia
ger beer saloons at $500. Five licen-
ses we're granted to applicants, all of
whom had previously made application
to city council and been refused. This
is knocking democratic home rule into
smithereens and undoubtedly will have
the effect to drive many of the better
class of citizens from the Democrat
party.
