Republicans Realize That They VIII
Have to Drop PrOhi bition.

WASHINGTON City, Jan. 20 Special l.
1t is apparent at the Washington City end
of the line that the Republican leaders in
Iowa have decided to change their posi-
ton on the prohibition issue in the coming
state campaign. 1t is the general opinion
among the Republican politicians in
Washington City that, in order To carry
the state in future campaigns, the Repub-
Leans in Iowa must make a decided change
OF base on this vexatious question GEN
eral CIarkson was the first man. "a il

emphatically declare that the party owed
its defeat IN the last election and the cleo
ton previous thereto by standing stead

statute books in that state. 1t is not, of
course. claimed that General Clarkson is
not the only prominent leader in Iowa who
holds this position 1t is probably a fact
that from Senator Allison down, there is not
a Republican OF any prominence in the
Huwkeye state who is not in favor of un-
loading this prohibition burden from the
shoulders Of the Republican party. Con-
gresham Perkins, of Sioux CITY. is \
steadtast Republican. and, 10 the close of
the last campaign, has always been a
Stf&tlSSt icicllItE;p pi i4it pdi " position on
the prohibition question. The result of
the asst state election brought about de-
eided change in his views. Upon this
matter he has this to say: The discussion
over the result Of the Iowa election has
been confined almost wholly 10 the aues-
tion OF the future policy of the state in the
matter of the sale of Intoxicating liquors.
Sufficient time has now elapsed 10 afford

opinion.
1T Is yet TOO early 10 say that positive
conclusions have been reached with refer

action. For one thing. il appears TO be a
common agreement that the Iowa election

DEs MONIES, Ia, Jan. 20 The inaugu-
ration of Governor Boies took place this
afternoon. The weather was mild and
the crowd of visitors IN the city from diff
ferent parts of the state was never larger
at similar ceremony. The procession
formed at l 80, headed by military es-
cort and followed by the governor and
party in carriages and Democratic clubs
from Des Mones and other cities. At the
state house the oath of office was admin
istered by the chief justice OF the supreme

The governor advocates the repeal of
prohibition and the enactment of local
option law.

of the supreme court of the United States
were mildly astonished today when ex-
Senator Edmunds, acting as counsel, criti-
cised the court and stated his opinion that
it was entirely wrong in its decision in the
celebrated original package case from
Iowa. The principle laid down in that
case was one dangerous to the peace and
security of the people of individual states,
and with great diifidence he urged the
court to go back to the true doctrine in
this case while there was yet time.

There is talk about the Cleveland and

HIDING RUSSIAN MISERY.

Local Potentates Indulge in Banquets and
Gambling to Conceal the Starvation of
the Peasan.ry-The True Stlte of Affairs
Kept From the Cars Ears.
ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 3.-In an inter-
view, the proprietor of a small estate in the
famine-stricken province of Koursk, who
is now visiting the capital, tells of the
misery which prevails about his home. He
expresses surprise at the gayety and luxury
to be seen here as being in such violent
contrast with the suffering in his own dis
trict.
He saws the people there are reduced to
the necessity of burning their doors and
window frames for fuel, and of pulling the
thatch from the roofs of cottages to feed the
few cattle still unkilled. He continues
thus:
''The horrible compounds eaten in order
to stave off the .pangs of hunger induce dis
ease the progress of which is most rapid
among the inmates of the overcrowded
houses, where whole families are huddled
together for shelter After denuding their
own houses, many of the suffering peasants
band together and politely but forcibly
compel more fortunate neighbors to divide
their resources with them.
Government relief is wrongly allotted.
It always comes too late. Local officials
desiring to hide the true state of affairs
organize banguets and gambling parties tor
the entertainment of Government commits
sioners sent to the district. Any attempt
to send appeals directly to the Gar is
nipped in the bud by the officials, with
threats of expulsion if such an attempt is
repeated"

he was Commissioner of Pensions he gave

Later the General was seen, and was lit

He smiled grimly when asked if it was true
that he had been delegated by a number of
friends recently to see Blaine and find out if
he would run for the Presidency. 1t was
reported that the Secretary had given him
no consolation, and the General returned to
his friends very much crestfallen. MI
Dudley raised his eyebrows and frowned, as
much as to say that this was another admin
istration fake, and it wasn't necessary to
pay any attention to it. The Colonel is for
Blaine, and next to him will support any
man who can beat President Harrison. Out
