Prospects of Prohibition.

COLUMBIA, Ontober AT the last ses-
sion Of the General Assembly there were
ten or dozen ganer,l hills that had to b.
passed to conform to the requirements Of
the new Constitution Now that these
general laws are nut of the way and spe.
cial and personal legislation is prohibited
under the terms of the Constitution there
will he varv little for the next General
>Asaem bly, to do.
There can ba mn question that the most
important matter that will come up will
be in reference to the dispensarv law
and everyone is pnzzling his brain as to
how the present objections to the law can
hest he mat, whether the law had hest be
wiped out, whether it can ba satisfactori-
lv amended or whether there will have to
be fnrm of Prohibition before new era
ia inaugurated with licensed establish
menta for the sale Of liauor under the
provision of this Constitution.
Some time ago pretty wise politician
said that he thought the shining" "f the
Prohibitioniats had at last come, and that
the General Assembly wnnld at the ne1t
session pass a law providing for the sale
of liquor onlv for medicinal. sacramental
and scientific rurposas. He predicted
that snch law wou'd satisfy the paonle
in year or more, and that 1t wnnld be
followed bv license system. But 1t
must he understood, If the State ever
goes hack to tha license svstem, that IN
der the terms Of the Constitution lfqnnr
cannot be DRINK on the premises, that
certain hours and sizes Of packages are
prescribed, and several of the features of
the dispensarv law will be engrafted or
any new svstam.
The ProhihiCionists are satisfied that
they have chance now to do something
and in the current issue of the official or
gan Of the Gospel Temperance Union
there ia the following editorial paragraphs:
"Whv should not the good people Of
the State meet and consult "a to the beat
plans for general and forward move on
the line Of tenn perance? Let US hear from
tbosa Interested"
When the Convention Ia held, If at all,
it will be interesting for some of the ad
vooates Of the dispeDRary to explain how
it is that the shipment of over S11, 1000
worth Of liquor in single day can con-
tribute much to the cause of temper
ance, or how II is ga step in the direction
Of Prohibition"
The Prohihitionists will have in the
next General Assembly Mr.. L. D. Childs,
who has been their most active leader in
the State, and he will probably have
Prohibition scbeme tn propose.
1t seems tn he generally admitted that
there will have to he some radical changes
in the law to satisfy the people. A prom
inent Reformer in talking about the sltu-
alton said that unless something radical
was done with the law, the whole thing
would have to go 'tbv the board."-Spe-
cidI to Ne,Us and Co,rier.

Georgia Majorities.

ATLANTA, Oct. 9.-Official returns from
q majority Of the Counties of the State
show that the Democratic majority for
the State ticket IN Wedn"Hday's election
will run largely over $4,000 Governor
AtkinRon's majority falls below this by
several thonsand, hut this fact is dpe to a
local fight on The head Of 'he ticket.
Later returna make practically no change
in the complexion of the Legislature. One
notable feature Ia the fact that the Demo.
Gratis have carried the etenth district. which
ia Watson'a district end ia tho clos
est throughout the State. The result in
the October elections seems tn insure the
election of w. II. Fleming in this district
and that means q solid Democratic delega-
ton in the lower house.

Their Very Improvements Are What Drive
English Convicts Mad.
The official belief is that there is lit
tie or no prison made insanity. Prison
doctors are keenly alive to the possibil-
ity of shamming, and they hesitate to
admit that there is any flaw in the sys-
tenn for the administration Of which
they are so largely responsible. Still
the fact remains that the ratio Of insan-
ity in prisons has exactly doubled since
1877.
The admitted general increase Of in
sanity is not sufficient to account for
this startling fact. Prison discipline is
now more mechanical, and therefore
more depressing. It's very Improvements
in this respect "take the heart out of
man. 1T is probable that prisoners
we're far happier is the old unreformed
prisons, when they herded together and
had companionship Of a kind.
An expert witness who had passed
four and twenty years in Jail told the
prison committee some startling things
from the convict's point of view. The
rules, he said, are too minute for human
observance, and some minds are totally
unable to bear the strain of them. A
man may be reported for knocking
something over in his cell, though it
may be by pure accident The name
for this offense is unnecessary noise. "
As the poor wretcbes walk their weary
round in the exercise yard one may fal!
ont of step and thus throw the others
out. The first offender or the last-any
one, in fact, on whom the warder's eye
happens to fall-is liable to punishment
for this mischance.
In this way the convict gradually ac-
quires an expression that never leaves
him-the round the corner glance Of
being who breads tyrant on the pounce.

is only half as bad as it is said to be by
those who have best reason to know

General Weyler Finds a Very
Large Discrepancy in His
Army Roll.
Should Have Fifteen to Twenty
Thousand More Soldiers
Than He Has.
Whether They Have Gone Over
to the Enemy or Have Been
Killed a Question.

ST.. LOUIS. Feb ga special to q
local paper from New York, says dis
patch from Havana reports IL, 900 Span
ish soldiers missing in Cuba. The fact
has been communicated to the Madrid
government, and the search for their
whereabouts is going on day and night.
Official circles are in q state of alarm,
for 1000 men, with $1,000 rifles and
500, 900 cartridges, is an enormous item
to the Spanish army. The disappear.
ance of the mon will ultimately be
traced to either death in battle, the
number of which has been concealed
to hide Spanish losses, details to posi-
tions in various parts Of the island, of
which no record has been kept, or de.
sertions to join the insurgents. The
Spanish records show that entire gar.
risons have joined the rebels with their
arms, in every province in the island.
An order was issued by General Wey.
Ter several days ago for report of the
number, position and condition Of the
army. The responses to this, it is said,
have increased the confusion and there
are reports now from reliable sources
that there are 10000 men, instead of
$1,000, to be accounted for.

VIII ASK the Legislature to Protest
Against Threatened Coercion.
WINNIPEG, Feb. 26.-In the Manitoba
Legislature Premier Greenway gave no.
tice that tomorrow he would move the
house into a committee to enter formal
protest against the threatened coercion
OF the Ottawa government in respect to
Roman Catholic parochial schools. The
premier declares that the remedial bill
at Ottawa was being forced through
without All inquiry into the facts, and
he further declared the Manitoba gov.
ernment was willing to remedy any
thing that could be shown ITO bear
harshly on Roman Catholics. 1t is be.
lieved the premier's action paves the
way for announcement Of the result of
Sir Donald A. Smiths mission to Win
nipeg and everybody is on the tiptoe of
expectation. The premier's declaration
is taken to mean that if the Dominion
government authorities drop their
coercion bill he will undertake to settle
the difficulty himself.

FISH FROM LEECH< LAKE.

Agent Fullerton Says They Will he
Seized Wherever Found.
ST. PAUL, Feb. 26.-An interesting
question has arisen in regard to the
slaughter of game and fish in the In.
dian reservations in this state. A COM
pany has recently been formed which
contemplates the sale of fish from
Leech lake, which is within the reser-
vation. The idea was to secure from
the Indians some of the privileges
which they have. and thus accumu.
late a marketable quantity of fish.
The Indians, however, are supposed
to fish only for their own use. and
whether they have any assignable priv.
ileges is question. The respective
rights of the federal and state govern
ments to control the fish and game in
reservation limits may be tested in the
courts, as Executive Agent Fullerton,
for the state, announces that he will
seize the fish whenever found in the
state, under the very general section
"a, which gives the commission its
present leverage on offenders against
game preservation.

TYLER, Mimi, Feb. 26.-The details
Of horrible tragedy which took place
six miles southeast of here in the Nor.
wegian settlement near Florence, have
been reported here. While most of the
people in the neighborhood were at
tending services in the Norwegian
church, Peter Ronning the 20-year.old
son Of E. X. Ronning, a prominent
farmer, became suddenly violently in
sane. First divesting himself Of every
article of clothing. he seized a
pocket knife and began a MUIR
derous assault on the members
of the family who had remained at
home. Seizing his 9-year-old brother,
he attempted to cut his throat. the cash
extending from beneath the ear down
to the center of the throat, but not sew.
ering the jugular. He then seized his
l3-year-old sister and cut horrible
cash in the back of her head. The
next attempt was made upon the life of
his mother, but she eluded her assail.
and ran to the barn.
He then ran to the house of neigh.
Dor and cut two children-in . manner
similar to those at his own home. He
was finally captured and overpowered,
having first stabbed himself. None OF
his victims will die.

THE RELIGION OF MR.. REED
A Quantity Of Church Going Rep publicans
Want tn Know About 1t.
NEW YORK, Feb ga question has
arisen as to the religious convictions of
Speaker Reed. Major Mckinley, it is
known, is an active member Of the
Methodist church, and is closely iden-
titled with the work of that church.
Governor Morton j. an Episcopalian.
Senator All sou IS It !; communicate,
it is said, but when at home he is re-
ular attendant and pewholder in the
Second Presbyterian Church Of Du-
buque
Mr.. Reed was educated at Bowdoin
college for the pulpit at the expense of
Portland congregation of Unltarians.
Later in life, with a high sense of
honor, when he found he could not
conscientously fulfil the expectations
of his friends, he repaid the money ex.
pended Oh his education. Very little is
known as to his religious beliefs, but
he has at times been described as an
agnostlc.
AS presidential candidate Mr.. Reed
will find it necessary before long to
make some declaration Oh this subject,
as his political opponents are already
making capital OF his reported agnos-
ticism.
