A SATISFACTORY LAW.

Iowa never had II more satisfactory
law about the lie of liquors than the
present so called ''mulct law" in its
general provisions and tendencies. 1t
is not perfect yet in its provisions, but
it is meeting the case as to the general
line of policy. Take the seven counties
for instance that compose the First
congressional district. Two of these
counties are intensely opposed to
| prohibition. In five OF them the maj
ority of the people probably want pro.
hibition. 1t cOnnot be galnsaid that
| this respective condition and The differ
ences involved are more satisfactorily
met under the present law than the
people of these seven counties, wheth-
er prohibitionists or not, had for years
thought they could be. The people Of
each county now have IL law adjusted
to the actual conditions and require.
ments and sentiments of the constitu-
tional judicial machinery of the state.
That the people of each county should
have the policy of law they want as to
this matter was a siderated cOndi-
ton. Prohibitionists and licence men
alike who had knowledge of the cOndi-
tions reorganized that as the machinery
of the enforcement of law is made by
the constitution of each state govern
ment to rest wholly within the voters
Of the country, the only practicable
policy that could de adopted as to this
matter must make the people of the
country the unit to be considered. AS
the outcome of years Of experience and
of q whole winters deliberation by one
legislature, supplemented by the fail
ing experiments of preceding legisla-
lures, the present law was enacted. 1t
is the outcome Of the experience and
the opinions of the people of Iowa. All
that the last legislature could do was
to establish the general policy. The
provisions made could not anticipate
experience, but must be established by
experience. Coming legislatures will
have the benefit of that, and they can
shape the law ard details of the statute
as required by the people to meet the
conditions in the country. But the gen
eral policy of the existing law should
be upheld. 1t practically meets the
conditions throughout Iowa, and is
the only policy that will do it, State
wide prohibition does statewide
license does not. This being true, it is
apparent that the present law which
permits the counties to have in Il gen
eral way which of either of these two
policies the people want, is the policy
which best meets the requirements of
the people. Hence we hope and we
expect that both the people of Iowa
and the republican party now so large
ly the political sentiment of Iowa, will
refuse to entertain any suggestion of
policy as to this matter other than that
general line which Iowa and the
republican party adopted in the last
distinctively state campaign and in
the last legislature -KeO6Uk Gate EjtU

OLD-TIME TRAVEL,

The horizon of ones travel is to-day
immeasurably extended beyond the
limits of that far-off yesterday, and yet
it seems no wider to the eye. If Denver
or Salt Lake City is now three days
from Albany, so was Buffalo half a
century ago. The journey to Colorado
or Utah is noisy and tiresome. The
trip from Buffalo to Albany was quiet
and restful. You saw, perhaps, one
eighth as much territory, but you saw
it eight times as thoroughly. You
were part of the lovely long drawn
out sunrises and twilights of the sum-
mer, of the waving wheat-felds, the
rich meadows, the lush and dewy past
ures, the well-cultivated domains of
corn and potatoes, that gladdened the
eyes all through the fertilities of Cen
trail New York. Sitting on the deck at
night you were neighbored overhead
by the lustrous Lyra, and by the i'm
mense brilliancies of the northeastern
skies, while the handle of the never
setting Dipper pointed to Arcturus
bending his course to the west. Above,
there was nothing between you and
Infinite; all around you were the in
effable dewy f1ayors of summer night
in the fields, the hushed murmurs of
| Nature which never wholly sleep; and
underneath you was the soft swish of
the water, while at the stern the voice
of the watchful steersman now and
then broke the stiffness with the warn
ing, Low bridge" in obedience to
which you bent down your head until
you cleared the overhanging structure
All this is now as remote and impOs
sible as it would be to find Lycidas
and Simichidas sitting opposite each
other in shady nook of Sicily, cele
brating the festival of Demeter, the
goddess of harvests, and cOntestine
with each other for the prize of pastor
al lyrics. Do you suppose that you
could go up into the hills from Palermo
or Messina, or Catania, and find such
jolly party as the malaysia depicts
around whom sitting on the grass
tufted larks and goldfinches were sing
ing, the turtle-dove was cooling, twany
bees were humming about the fount
aims; all things were exhaling the in
cense of very plenteous summer and oil

DENVER, March 12.-Committees have
started out to raise $2,O0O,OoO for the
purpose Of carrying out the internal
tional industrial and mining exposition,
which it has been decided to hold in
1896. That the movement has found
friends abroad is evidenced from the
letters received. Secretary Finn has
received inquiries from all the great
trunk lines, and there is no question
that rates as low as those made to
Chicago will be offered. In,many in
stances they will be much lower, as the
old fair rates are still in existence, so
that any reduction made will be to cut
under the Chicago fair rates. It has
been decided to put the consals and vice

happened to be on the street. A
moment later fire burst forth from the
heart of the structure and spread SO
rapidly that before an alarm could be
given the main portion of the building

DEAD LETTERS.
Unbelievable Mail That Accumulates at

Unbelievable Mail That Accumulates at
New York.
NEW YORK, March 12.-Assistant
Postmaster Gaylor has collected some
statistics with regard to dead letters in
the New York postofice. He thinks
that in qnarter an average Of $1,000
dead letters sent by correspondents in
the United States accumulate in the
New York postofice. OF the foreign
correspondents to contribute to the
dead letters, the Italians are the worst.
The addresses on italian letters are
rarely explicit and often undecipherable.
The largest number Of dead letters in
the foreign mail comes from Germany.
This is due, not to neglect or ignorance,
but to the large German mails. In the
last three months $500 German, 4, OOC

400 Spanish letters could not be de-

WHALE OFF NAHANT.
One That Has Been Agitating Sailors Some

One That Has Been Agitating Sailors Some
Time Captured.
BOSTON, March 12.-A whale about
rs feet in length, and evidently an old
settler, was killed off Nahant by a
picked crew of experienced men from
Nahant. The whale had been reported
by several parties during the last few
weeks, and Friday night two fishermen
out in their boats were forced to make a
hurried retreat to the shore i'm order to
escape. The whale is evidently an old
one, as he is half covered with seaweed.
Deeply imbedded in his back was an
ancient harpoon, badly rusted, but with
the Inscription 'sHiram K. SWAN,
Nantucket, 1882 still legible. The
Nahant whalers are in high glee, as
there has been considerable rivalry be-
tween them and their Swamscott broth.
ers over the prospective capture of the
monster.
