A NEW REGULAT1vE ORDINANCE.

The Boston Board of Aldermen has
passed an order that licenses to post bills
in that city shall issue only upon condi-
ton that the bill poster shall not put upon
his boards or any dead walls, pictures or
announcements that are indecent or of
fensive to common modesty, or that have
tendency TO corrupt youth and stimu-
late taste for the vicious and indecent
The principle involved in the enforce
ment of this order is one that brings to
the front the whole question of the wis
dom of attempting to correct public
morals by legislative regulation. But
we apprehend, that in the end, the
Aldermen of Boston will be supported by
public opinion.
In its behalf the board says that it does
not seek to exercise censorship over the
press; that bill printing and posting is
in,no wise related TO the printing of ones
opinions and the circulation of the
printed matter; that the board has the
power TO determine what is public nui-
sance, and that there is resort to the
courts for correction if it errs in its judg-
ment; that it is of the opinion that vulgar
and lewd matter or pictures posted in
the streets is as legitimately to be forbid
den as are the printing and circulation of
forbidden books and prints, and that such
public postings are as obnoxious as are
the books.
1t would seem that this is sufficient
defence on the part of the Aldermen.
The liberty to print and speak freely is
always to be exercised within the limits
of common decency. Society has always
forbidden, and will continue to do so. the
indecent exposure of person, and with
just as much reason indecent speaking
and printing; why not, then, indecent
posting? When it comes to the determi-
nation of what is indecent and corrupting
the judgment of the common mass of
men must prevail. Whatever the con-
ventionality that obtains for the time as
TO the limits of good taste, and the bounds
OF modesty, it must govern, no matter if
advanced thought and higher concep-
tons of human interest and human free
dom, are entertained by some The
moral code of the present must fashion
the laws of restraint.
But as a rule the matter aimed at by
the Boston Board of Aldermen will find
few defenders or apologists. It is true
that bil-boards often fiaunt in the public
face the most indecent announcements,
and the most vulgar pictures. They do
more; they frequently present TO view in
Tltations TO crime and vice, and tempta-
tions to defy the law; more frequently
still they glare with pictures that no man
would dare to present to his wife or chill
dren, and that If another were to do so,
would justify him in cowhiding the
offender. While therefore few laws to
fashion tastes and mold morals should
be passed, indeed, we might say none.
the restraining law of the Boston Board
is clearly defensible, since it is in the
legitimate direction of wise legislation
the restraint of the vicious.

OPERATIONS RESUMED AGAIN.
Litigation Over the Profits of an Oil Tanb
Shop in Butler County,

Litigation Over the Profits of an Oil Tank
Shop in Butler County.
William I. jackson, the oil tank manufact-
urer of Pleasantville. who recently had some
difficulty with his former partner, S. II. Wal
lace, has had matters arranged so as TO permit
him to resume business, and ON Monday opera
tions were begun again at the shops at Sample
station, on the Pittsburg and Western road.
The stock of the old firm was disposed of on
Monoay by the Fidelity Title and Trust Com
pauy. which had been appointed as receiver.
and the works will now be run on larger and
more extensive scale than ever.
Mr.. Jackson was seen yesterday and said the
outlook for his class of goods was never better.
New oil territory is being developed constantly
and the demand for 250barrel tanks is increas-
to 500 for this sized tank. He will supply the
greater portion of the demand for the Butler
county field in the future.
There is legal proceeding pending in which
Mr.. Jackson is the defendant. but in which he
expects TO vindicate himself wit hout mnch dif-
ficulty. His former partner, Mr.. Wallace,
brings the action, claiming that jackson had
not accounted for over 5000, and alleging that
he had applied S3.SS0 to his own purpose. Jack
son filed his answer in the case yesterday. in
which he claims the partnership had been dis
solved before he collected the money referred
to. and that by an agreement at the time OF set
tlement ali outstanding money of the firm was
TO belong to him. Messrs. Hunter, Ivory d
Beatty have charge of his case.
Mr.. jackson says Wallace was anxious
enough for the dissolution TO take place un til
he discovered the business was a paying one,
and then he wanted to share the profits.

Merchants and Coalmen Loaded With

'Whew, what beastly weather you have in
the East" said a Western business man to a
reporter yesterday, as he shook the water off
lis big fur coat and emptied his Tubbers, which
bad filled with slush from the streets
We have had no snow in the West" he con.
tmued, ''and the sun has been shining
as summer days. The country roads
are dry, and we wonder how
long ouer good luck will continue. Usually the
conditions are reversed. and the West is the
one Shat suffers the most from the cold and
SNOW.
MANY of the Western business men find
themselves in tight places as the result of the
agreeable weather They had laid in heavy
stocks in anticipation of hard winter which
has failed to materialize. The coal men in par-
ticular are badly pinrhed, and even if it should
turn cold now it would not help them very
much. Unless the weather changes in the next
80 days, will look for number of small fail
ures in Western towns"

WEIR WILL FINISH HIS TERM.
He Will Serve as Foreman of the Grand
jury Without Pay.

James G. Wier, the foreman of the grand
jury, who will enter on his duties as County
Commissioner OIL Monday went before Judge
Stowe yesterday and desired to knor- if he
could still serve in his present position. He
said he hoped the work of foreman of the
grand jury was not incompatible with his
duties as County Commissioner, but if the
Court would allow it and there was no iliee al
ity III it lie would prefer to retain his foreman
ship until the work of the grand Jury
was completed. For this work he would ask
for no compensation, rather would he do it
without the usual fee.
Judge Stowe first said the two positions
would not conflict in legal way and that the
proposition was most acceptable one. He
cnmplimented MI. Wier on the work done by
the grand jury and said he was desirous that
Mr.. Wier would still continue IN his present
capacity as foreman. Mr.. Wier will therefore
do so.
