Chicaso's Homo Saloon.

From n Windy City Special.
Incorporation papers for the Peoples
palace have been forwarded to SPRING
field. The incorporators are Rev. John
Rusk, William Il. Sloan and Zeno Keency.
The Peoples palace will be located in the
business district on Madison street This
will be n soft drink emporium, smoking
rooms, billiard rooms, and, in fact, every
thing that goes to make life enjoyable to
the imbiber of non-alcohol!c drinks. Mr..
Sloan gave the following account of the
enterprise: I'VE are to be Incorporated
for $4,000 Our palace will not be prudish.
The only question on which we split Is
tobacco. The clerical party said no to-
bacco. but we compromised on cigars 1t
will be run as IA first-class cafe, regular
free lunch layout, which the walters will
take to the tables when ladies' are to be
served. We are In this business to fight
the saloons. but we will not truckle to
the ultra prohibition enthusiasts. II a
man wants an innocent drink that re-
sembles the old stun we will satisfy him
rather than have him 80 to the real saloon

The Muict Law of Iowa.

To understand the singular law en-
acted in Iowa one year ago, with
view to regulating the traffic in intox-
icating liquor. it is necessary to remem-
ber that after ten years of varying
experiment, prohibition in that COM
monwealth was, in 1898, voted failure
by the people. Into a discussion of the
causes of that failure, apart from the
federal supreme courts original pack
age decision which made state law in
effective to prohibit the sale Of in
toxlcants shipped into the state by
Interstate commerce, it is not our pur-
pose to enter. Prohibition failed in
Iowa because public sentiment grew in
different to its success and perhaps
because the American populace Is by
nature restless and inclined to fluctua-
ton. It was replaced by what is known
as the Martin mulct law, concerning
which we extract several interesting
facts from an entertaining article by
Frank L. McVey in the March Social
Economist.
Under the Martin law each saloon Is
assessed 5000, half of which goes to the
county and half to the municipality in
which the saloon is located. Any city
or town can add without limit to this
assessment. All property, personal ana
real. connected with the, saloon may be
seized for non-payment of this tax. The
applicant for privilege to sell liquors
must deposit $500 in cash, and an In
dorsed bond of $4,000. He must, If liv-
ing in q town of 5000 or more inhabi-
tants present petition signed by
majority of voters; or If in n smaller
place, by CO per cent. of the voting popu-
lation. The consent of the property
owners fifty feet on both sides must be
obtained, and the saloon must not be
within 800 feet of q church or school
house. Having complied with these
conditions, the saloon may now be
opened; but it must have no side
amusements, no questionable pictures,
no screens and no chairs. The drinker
must stand while inside the place. Sun
day opening is prohibited but during
the week, the door may be open from
3 a. m. to 10 p. m. If any parent,
brother, sister, uncle, husband, wife,
guardian, ward or employer gives
written notice that liquor shall not be
sold to a certain person, violation
of this notice constitutes ground for
the cancelling OF the privilege of sale.
1t Is the duty of the county attorney
to see that all these provisions are en-
forced; IL he fail in this duty, he Is
suject to removal by order of the court.
1t will be perceived that this law com
bines within itself about everything in
the form of restrictive regulation save
outright prohibition; and even the pro-
hibition statutes OF 1884 have never
been formally repealed. The Iowa spec
tacle Is one OF nominal prohibition re-
placed by law legalizing the viola
ton of that prohibition under certain
severe conditions. Whether this anom-
alous condition Of affairs will stand a
test before the state supreme court re-
mains to be seen. The Martin law, up
to date, has, according to Mr.. Mcvey,
wrought considerable Improvement. 1t

The sherffs, as before, are at liberty to
post their notices on barns and fences
and out-of-the-way places where the peo-
pie cannot see them. In this way they
render the law imperative and add to
their own gains. A few progressive Ofli-
cials use the newspapers, but the major
ity employ the antedeluvian hand bills.

ut is amusing" says the Wilkes
Barre Record, "to observe how tenderly

fiendish delight it kicks the stutfing

rect, with two exceptions. The Tribune
is not "coddling" Quay county. Sec
ondly, there is no Anthracite county for
it to kick. BY the way, where did the

tion two years ago?

A Genuine Gladstone Enthusiast.

From The London New Age.
Once Mr.. Gladstone had been cutting
down tree in the presence of large con-
course of people, including a number Of
CHEAP trlppers." When the tree had
fallen and the prime minister and some
of his family who were with him were
moving away, there was a rush for the
chips. one of the tr!ppers secured big
piece and exclaimed: Hey, lads, when
dee this shall 30 in my coffin" Then
cried his wife, IL shrewd, motherly old
woman, with a merry twinkle In her eye,
Sam, my lad II thou'd worship God as
thou worships Gladstone thou'd stand a
better chance of going where thy chip
wouldna burn"

The American Protective association
is one of those specimens of misdirected
energy which need to be resolutely dis
couraged. Processing to be American,
it is in reality grossly un-American,
since it's cornerstone is bigotry, made
doubly dangerous by the shield of Sc
crecy and the mock semblance Of
patriotism. Assuming to work for free
dom, it goes to the indefensible eX-
treme of intolerance, and uses it's high
pretence as a cover for the provoking
of most hurtful prejudices.
given to frankness and fair dealing.
They have established a government
upon the open basis of complete civil
and religious liberty. They can defend
that government, should it be neces-
sary, on the same baris.
1t will be a mistake IL the American
Protective association is accorded, at
Harrisburg, the slightest consideration.
Its members, as individual citizens,
have rights equal to those of other citi-
zens; but they have not the moral
right to plot together, behind closed
doors, for the spread of religious strife;
and they should, as an organization, be
accorded no legal encouragement.

fore it sets fire to tho public welfare.

The Altoona Gazette's Iden.

Every person who recognizes the value
OF education to individual and state, and
the corresponding injury to both result
ing from the refusal of parents to send
their children to school will receive with
satisfaction the announcement OF the
passage In the house of representatives
OF the Farr compulsory education bill,
The only arguments urged against It are
that II cannot be enforced and that its
spirit Ia in violation OF the constitutional
idea of personal liberty. Neither Is worthy
of much consideration There Is not
law on the statute books that is not vio-
lated to some extent; and Il would be
ridiculous to assert that the Farr bill is
different from others In that respect, but
we see no reason why Il could not be en-
forced In general degree. The good re-
suits In the instances In which II Is en-
forced viii not be impaired by the few
cases In which Its provisions are dsrc-
ga,rded. The personal liberty talk In
shallow. So far as the individual alone ia
concerned. perhaps the state has no right
10 dictate whether he shall be intelligent
or igr.-ant. But the fact that lack OF
education Is dangerous to the welfare Of
the public In general puts n different as
pect on the question, and brings It direct
ly within the province Of state enactment.
