the house, and saw Jack swinging a
whip with tremendously long lash
over his head, then with quick twist
of the stock snap the lash straight in
front of him, so that the extreme
end of it hit the ground about
eighteen feet distant, raising a little
cloud of dirt, and making a sharp,

A prominent jeweler says that he

are just large enough to slip easily

The Great Distinction of Judge Blatch.
ford.

On Monday last at Washington the
Supreme Court OF the United States paid
tribute to the memory Of the late Judge
BLATcHFoRD by entering on its records res.
olutions In honor OF tho deceased iurist
adopted by the bar. and by adjourning fol-
the day.
The resolutions we're presented by the
Attorney-Gencral, who spoke Of the judi.
cial and personal character OF Judge
BLATCHFoRD; and in receiving them, Chief
Justice FULLER responded in the same
spirit and with n like celebration OF
the eminent general and particular abilities
displayed by him curing twcnty-six years
OF judicial life. He won respect for the
law and its administration, said Attorney
General OLNEY. "by the uniform right
eousness OF the results reached in actual
cases." In his 43O opinions published In the
volumes Of the Supreme Court reports. said
the Chief Justice. Tho dealt with large
questions, In many Of them with breadth
and luminousness OF treatment. and at the
same time with q clrcumspection and sa-
gacity. which entitle them'to high rank us
judicial compositions"
This is all true; but there was n remark
able omission in both the resolutions ard
the addresses. The decision which gave
Judge BLATCHroRD his greatest dis
tnction. which exemplified most strikingly
his pretminent judicial quality, and will
always make his nnmc ilustrious in the
annals of the American Judges, was passed
by without mention. This was the mcnl-
orable decision by which lie. in 1874. as n
United States District Judge. frustrated the
attempt OF desperate Federal Administers
tion to drag citizen OF New York to Wash
ington to be tried in police court OF
the capital. without a jury. AS Mr.. TIL
DEN described this proceeding in speech
at Syracuse upon his nomination for Gov
ernor in 1874. it was bold attempt ut " sub
jscting the free press Of the whole United
States. for criticism OF the Administration,
to trial by creatures OF the Administration.
acting under the eye of the Administra-
ton" 1t was made. too. at time Of
general subserviency to the Admins
tration. and was pushed with confidence
that it would be resistless even by
judicial authority. Judge BLATCHFoRD
stood boldly for the liberty Of the citizen
against this attempted exercise Of tyran-
meal power. In that memorable decision
he held the Administration at bay by tho
superior power Of the Constitution. and
settled principle Of priceless value.
Before and afterward, Judge BLATCHFoRD
delivered many judicial opinions which
showed. to use the words Of the Chief JUS
tice. his eminence in the domain Of con-
stitutional investigation and exposition"
but that special decision will always give
him his highest distinction among Ameri-
can freemen as brave and upright Judge.

Can Two Wrongs Make a RightY

Tho comments OF certain lawyers on the
present phase Of the Hawaiian affair betray
not only confusion OF thought. but igno-
rance of the primary principles OF interna-
tional law Assuming, they say. the cor
rectness OF Secretary GRESHAM'S statement
OF the circumstances under which the pres
ent Hawaiian Government was established
at Honolulu, a wrong WAS done to Queen
LILIUoKALANI by the United States at that
time, and President CLEVELAND Is justi-
fed In redressiug it. The position looks
plausible. but upon close scrutiny 1t will
be found entirely untonaDlc. 1t amounts to
the assertion that two wrongs make right.
We ourselves believe. in view OF the testi-
mony laid before our State and Navy de-
partmepts In the early part OF this year.
that there never was more righteous rev.
olution than that which broke out in Jan
uary ut Honolulu. 1t WAS prompted by the
determination OF the Intelligent and rep
utable clements OF the population to avert
q threatened reversion to the savage
despotism from which the islands had
emerged only during the present century.
Righteous rs the revolution was. we have
as yet seen no proof that 1t received mate
rial support from the representatives or
agents OF the United States. However.
like the lawyers to whom we have re-
ferred. We will assume. for the sake OF
argument. that Secretary CHEESEMAN'S as
sertions are well founded. and that the rev.
oluticn to which the present Hawaiian
Government owes its existence could not
have been carried out without overt assist
nnce from the official representatives OF the
United States at Honolulu. Now. II such
overt and Indispensable assistance was
given. and was previously authorized on
subsequently sanctioned by our State De-
partment, it Is clear that President HAIR

Everybody knows that Augusta 10 one Of the

enterprising than either OF those two other
Georgia cities. Savannah and Atlanta. 1t has
gained largely in population within recent
years. 1t is a city Of railroads. of commerce
OF manufactures. OF wealth. and OF beauty.
We need not say that the Hon. PATRICK WALSH
is one OF its citizens. or that he is the Presi-
dent OF the Exposition.
We are suro that New Workers would enjoy
visit to Augusta during the Exposition. which
is to be kept open for weeks. They can go

DIR. Rainsford and the Liquor Business

81 will not. and / cannot place stigma
on all engaged in the manufacture and sale
OF liquor" said the Rev. Dr. RAINSFoRD at
the Episcopal Church Congress on Tuesday
evening, "nor can ! deny to the poor man
his beer and pipe while lunch at my club
with my Bishop"
or course. no man who himself uses alco-
hol rs beverage can forbid its use to other
people. as sinful. He cannot denounce in
his neghbor n habit in which he himself
INDUCES. If ministers are to preach against
the liquor saloons. they themselves must
give up drinking. or lose public respect be-
cause OF their inconsistency.
When. however. DIR. RAINSFoRD advocates
the establishment Of saloons by groups OF
respectable people" and the selling OF
liquor without any profit at such places.
we cannot SEQ what is the Improvement ne
expects to bring about by such means. The
practice of drinking is unconquerable by
legislation. undoubtedly but Is 1t advisable
for "groups of respectable people to en-
courage and stimulate it by cheapening the
cost OF alcoholic beverages
If the practice OF drinking Is ineradicable.
and II the sale Of liquor is not inherently
a sinful business, ;" why should not both he
lett to regulate themselves according To the
law of demand and supply? Undoubtedly
the liquor business can be made sinful. but
SO, too can any other business.
Moreover by tho law and precept OF
Christianity all sclf-indulgence which tends
to cause others TO offend is sinful. Hence.
il Christian ministers refrain from taking
their tOddy mt IL club or in private, they
are listened TO more respectfully by the
public when they discuss the evils Of the
liquor saloons in which the great mass OF
people are accustomed TO drink.
