Tur election here Monday does not

THE election here Monday does not
show that a majority of fifty of the
voters of this place are in favor of
whisky as against temperance, or that
they had rather there were saloons here
than not. The result is due to union
of the out and out saloon men with those
who were disgusted at the non enforce
ment of the local law. These latter gen
tlemen. though illogical in their idea
that an unenforced law should be re-
pealed, are not anti-temperance men.
They were enraged at the illegal liquor
selling of the past few years, and at
tributed it to apathy on the part Of the
temperance people-an apathy which
they said ought to be punished. From
TIE CHRONICLES point of view. the
action of such voters is without basis in
reason, and the man who so voted as
sumed direful responsibility, but there
is no denying that there is a streak OF
Justice in it, and that the whole com
munity must suffer, because there has
not been found in six years citizens who
cared enough or who were courageous
enough to set the law going.

PRESIDENT CLEVELAND showed his
inherent dullness by delaying for ten
days after he had been notified that an
English Embassador had been appointed
to this country, the appointment of a
similar official from the United States
to England. Those who remember the
Sackville incident will recall that it
then took Mr.. Cleveland some months
to comprehend that he ought not to
keep an American Minister at London
when no British Minister was sent to
Washington. Our President may be a
great man and an honest man, and all
that, but with diplomatic civilities he
seems slow.

THE Australian government has en-
tered an objection against Max Judd
lately appointed Consul General tC
Vienna, on the ground that he is Jew
This procedure recalls the fact that
Austria objected to Minister Kelly, ap-
pointed under the former Cleveland
Administration, alleging that he was
non persona gr0tG. Because of that
event diplomatic relations with Austria
were broken off for year. 1t may be
that this appointment was made wit
tingly, and that it is the intention OF
the Administration to thrust Judd OF
the Austrians in spite of their protests
and as revenge for their actions eight
years ago.

extremes. 1t is excellent exercise, but it

spasms, and was with great difficulty
kept alive.

IT is great pity the Governor of
Ohio has not the veto power. Did the
Governor possess that prerogative it is
certain that much vicious legislation
that now is enacted would never see the
statute books. AS long as Legislatures
are composed of the men that now make
our laws the veto is necessary. As it
now is the Governor is held responsible
for legislation, although he has no power
whatever in making laws.
