RIGHT OF SEIZURE.

Public As Well As Private Jugs May
Get Into South Carolina.
Columbia, S. c., June 21.-There is a pos
sibility that the dispensary law may be
nullfied in effect, by decision from the
United States circuit court that there can
be no interference with the importation
of liquor, whether it is for private use or
not. DR.. Sampson Pope has commenced
an action before Judge Simonton to test
this right. The action is brought under
the same act of congress under which
Debs was convicted, but in the instance at
hand it is in the nature of a personal ac-
ton for damages. The title of the case is
James Dunbar against +. ]. Rankin,
state constable, and +. NJ. MiXson, liquor
commissioner. The question of personal
use does not enter, but merely the matter
of recovering damages for liquor seized
when in transit, under an act of congress
approved in 1890.

DON'T NEED A COADJUTOR.
The Nature of Bishop DUNES visit
to Chicago Explained.

Chicago, June 1.-THE report that
Bishop Dunno of Dallas, Tex, was coming
10 Chicago to act as coadjutor to Arch
bishop Feehan, was denied to-day by
Chancellor Muldoon. Bishop Dunno is
on his way to Chicago" said DR.. Muldoon,
to visit the College of Jesuits; he will re-
main but brief time and will then return
to his diocese in Texas.
The archbishop needs no assistance
whatever in performing his duties; no one
has ever suggested that he should have a
coadjutor and no consultation of ecclesias-
tics has ever been held with reference to
the matter"

PLURAL GOVERNORS,
ONE HOLDS THE SWORD. THE
OTHER HOLDS THE RIGHT.
The Dispatches Published in the Daily
Papers in Regard to Rebellion"
Bloody Revolution" Etc, in Alabama
Are Mere Sensations.

There is not, has not been, and will
not be any violence there unless it is
precipitated by the democrats.
The dispatches have caused lots OF
excitement, but there is no excuse for
such sensationalism.
The facts of the election most people
already understand. Oates, the dem
ocratic candidate, was declared elected
by majority of 81 900 votes; but Mr..
Kolb, the Populist candidate, alleged
that fraud had been committed, and
declared his intention of makinff a test
of the matter 1t was not Mr.. Kolb's
purpose to use force. He simply de-
clared his purpose to take
the oath of office and be
sworn in and protest against usur-
patton. He asked his friends to come
and peacefully witness his Inaugural
tion. The step was taken advisedly by
holb as technical one, and he carries
with him in his peaceful efforts two
thirds of the white people and many of
the colored people of Alabama
j. c. Manning, the leader of the
Populists i'll the legislature, says they
will ask for contest law to settle the
title of office now in dispute before the
general assembly. If this is refused,
which it doubtless will be, they will
appeal to the general government with
y
for republican form of government
in that state.
A bill was introduced in the state
legislature Ito prevent usurpation, :"
and was aimed at Kolb, but he will
violate the bill in order to get chance
to test its constitutionality. If such a
bill were passed it might react to i'm
prison Oates instead of Kolb as
usurper
Oates was inaugurated with all mill
tary pomp and display, while Kolb
took the oath before Justice of the
peace and made an address from
wagon. The proceedings were opened
with prayer. A Populist clergyman
mounted the wagon, and at his
motion the crowd uncovered their
heads. 1t was said to be an impressive
scene. Every man in the crowd was a
plain countryman-man with home
spun clothes and high top boots. In
simple language the clergyman in
ooked the blessing of God upon the as
semblage, "a plain people" he said,
who are here TO secure an honest
government.
And if the Lord is on their side, as
they earnestly belive, the eternal truth
Of God proclaims that nothing can
stand against them

CONTEMPT OF LAW,
Worse Than Contempt OF Count

Worse Than Contempt OF Count Is
Contempt of the People.
On the twer tieth page of the United
States journal, first congress, third
session, enacted June 16, 1894, is the
following law:
ANY person holding an Office or
stock in any institution in the nature
of bank for issuing or discounting
bills or notes to bearer or order, under
the authority of the United States. can
not be member of either house while
he holds such office or stock
The bankers have never taken the
troble to have this law repealed, show
ing that they do not consider laws
that were intended to apply
to them of any force They
have had legislation in their
own hands for years, and might have
had this law repealed-but they like
to show their contempt for law and the
people.
That law says they ''can't''-but
they do. Hundreds of bankers have
held seats in both branches of congress
since that law was signed by George
Washington.
The leader of the senate is a banker,
the President of the United States
recommends bankers financial
scheme for the country, and the secre-
tary of the treasury wants to place the
financial affairs of the country en-
tirely in the hands of the bankers.
George Washington and other pa
triots of his time foresaw the
danger of bankers assuming control of
legislation. A little longer at the
present rate and they will have a ma
jority of the membership in congress,
and operate the financial affairs of the
country at their own sweet will As it
is already. they have greater power
than all other classes of business. It
costs them little more to buy votes,
perhaps, than it would to secure spec
ial legislation from congress COM
posed entirely of bankers-but they
get the legislation and they want all
the seats in congress only to reduce
the expense
They strike at the heart OF govern
ment when they plan to obtain control
of the money.
Give them what they ask in the
Baltimore plan, and tney viii control

I,loodthirsty Parson.


What 40 you think of this little ex-
tract frd N one of our most influential
church Epapers? There is a vast
amount IF work that ought to be done
by con4 ress this winter. First our
stand garmy should be increased to
10000 nd Jn--a very little army for so
largela f'hntry. So says the Herald
and Prl .byter of Cincinnati. The

Yet her1 ae comes to ask that congress
shall ganize greater army

and bleH from emasculation of the

iishmeat of standing army.
IL Has ever been the glory of our

NEW SOCIAL PROBLEMS.
May a Man Conduct His Business as He
PlcaSes9

Carroll d. Wright says in the cur
rent Forum that a great many valuable
lessons will be learned from the Chi
cago strike. While studying its
phases, its origin, its course, and its
close, two very far reaching ethical
economic questions have been con-
stantly in my mind. These are: First.
shall man conduct his business in his
own way? second, shall the savings of
labor be considered a reserve from
which labor must draw in order to en-
able it to subsist during periods of de-
preston or of adversely while the re-
serve of capital is kept practically in
tact under like circumstances, or. if
drawn upon at all, in less measure than
labor draws on its savings? Society has
long since answered these questions
in some important particulars. 1t
says to the property owner, the manu-
facturer: 'You must not so conduct
your business as to injure the property
ofyour neighbor, nor must you conduct
y H.
jure the health of your neighbor. No
property owner can do anything that
will interfere with the rights and
privileges of his neighbor, whether
these rights and privileges come under
the head of right of freedom from in
jury to property or the privilege of
living without damage to health. :" Rut
the question which is much more far
reaching, and which will inevitably be
answered by society, relates to condi-
tions of men rather than to their ma
tcrial surroundings, and this question
is; "Shall man or corporation who
does not, or is not able to, conduct his
or its affairs SO as to avoid public dis
turbance, obstruction of trade, loss of
wages, or the lowering of the stand
ard of living, be free from the inter
ference of Society?''-The Times

must protect itself against usurers,

TWO WRECKEDBANKS
THOSE OF SLATER. MO-, WERE
RECKLESSLY MANAGED.
Tho Liabilities of the Citizens Stock
Over S6OO,O0O. and the Assets Small
Tho Savings in Even n Worse Shape
"A Young But Smooth Cashier.

ST. LOUIS, Dec. 29.-The Post Dis
patch says that the recent failures OF
the Citizens Stock bank and the Saw
lngs bank of Slater, Mo. were, in the
! opinion of well known st. Louis
banker who spent two days at that
place investigating their condition,
due to mismanagement. The same
methods which Allis, the Little Rock
banker, used in wrecking the Arkan-
sas institution with which he was con-
meet, were, the expert says. employed
at Slater.
The Citizens Stock bank was organ
lied in 1879 with a capital stock of
100000 1t had surplus of $50, ,0Oo
Its liabilities, as appears since its sus-
pension, are 5000, 900. It's cash on hand
was 81, 100. Its good assets will, in
the opinion of the expert, not exceed
$50, ,0OO
The Savings bank was started in
1SsS with a capital of $50, 900 and its
surplus was given out as SIS, 900.
When its doors were closed, in antici-
patton of run, after the suspension
of the Stock bank, there were S456 in
its vaults. It's liabilities are more
than $500, 900, so it is said, and of this
sum S135, 900 is reported continuous
paper, or paper on which the bank re-
allied and made no account in its re-
ports or on its books.
The st. Louis expert who, in behalf
OF n New York correspondent visited
Slater, is of the opinion that most OF
the money was lost in speculation.
The singular admission is made that
the board of directors had not ex-
amined either institutions for over
year
Cashier Lyme of Che Savings bank
has not reached his 25th year. 1t is
not charged that either he or Cashier
Field profited by it's collapse, as both
are without means or property as far
as can be learned.
Acres, Brown & Co., owners of the
Slater Milling company, a livery
stable, and also engaged in the feed
ing of cattle, were heavy borrowers
from the savings bank, and it is said
their paper amounting to $50 900, is
counted among the institutions as
sets. One of the Stock banks biggest
debtors is a cattle feeder of Slater
named Eubanks, who fioated $50, 900
by its aid.
''Wash paper" was handled, it is
claimed, by both banks. When it
was necessary to realize cash it was
the custom to get the accommodation
note of a resident of Slater, send it
to st. Louis, Kansas City or Chicago
with the banks Endorsement, and get
it discounted. This system enabled
both banks to keep open their doors
long after they were wrecked
No criminal prosecutions have been
begun, but the st. Louis expert is of
the opinion that the officials of both
banks will be arrested after more
thorough examination of the affairs
None of these officials have been
guilty Of peculation, the st. Louis ex-
pert says, but reSorted to 'tAllis"
methods in order to avert disaster

western railroad recently fell into the
hands of the state of Georgia, being
abandoned by the owners as worth
less. The state having guaranteed
the bonds, took the road and operated
