THE PROHIBITION CONTENTION

THE PROHIBITIONC CONTENTION
The Prohibitionists have gone through all
the motions on record in national conven-
tons. We can congratulate our Prohibi-
ZIONIST friends upon being persistent party.
There have been many third parties in
American politics, but none of them ever
lasted nearly as long before as this one
They have begun bigger, and they have in
creased more rapidly, but for dogged en-
durance the Prohibtionists bear away the
palm. The Prohibitionists band together for
an idea and they stand up to be counted
They do not count essentially any more from
one four. years term to another, but they in
sist upon being counted just the same. We
are inclined to think that those who refuse
to spread out the platform are the wiser
They can hold together on prohibition alone.
They invite more strength by expanding
their platforms, but it is delusive and it
leads to death. All other third parties go
down to the grave. The strict, rigid, ram
rod Prohibitionist third party alone is en-
during. Its candidate for President for this
year is from Maryland and is said to be
rich and highly respected gentleman.

Miss Kate Field, whose death in Homo
lulu fortnight ago is just reported. was not
only brilliant and sensible woman, but a
kindly and lovable one. The biography of
a woman who has spent her life in the ex-
acting work of journalism is apt TO be short
and simple. If all that is kindly and cred
table could be written about Miss Field
which her friends know and love to tell, tue
literary monument to her memory would be
conspicuous.

1t is asserted with much definiteness that
Mr.. Mckinley has determined. If elected,
to issue proclamation on the day of his
Inauguration converting Congress In extra
session on the 18th Of March for the purpose
of revising the tariff, Whatever the effect
such proceeding may have on the pros
poets of the Republican party, it is certain
that Mr. Cleveland missed the opportunity
of his life when he failed to take similar &C.
ton after his inauguration. II he had called
an extra session in March, 1898, to abolish
the Mckinley "culminating atrocity OF class
legislation" instead of wasting the first
priceless months Of victory, enthusiasm and
good will in giving out offices, he could have
secured genuine instead OF a bogus tariff
reform.

LAFAYETTE OARS AGAIN.
The Pacific Avenue Bridge Tenn
p0rariIy Repaired.

The bridge over the canal at Pacific
avenue has been temporarily repaired
and the cars are running over it today
much to the relief of the residents. Of
the Lafayette section. The bridge was
repaired on Saturday. A new swinger
was placed in position under the bridge
and the old one, which was cracked. was
removed.
The brick foundation was also strength
ened by the addition of a couple of layers
Of brick. The joists are still in a dan
gerous Condition, but the bridge is safer
now han it has been in years.
While the residents of Lafayette are
happy that they are again allowed com
m~pnication with the outer world, still
they are hardly satisfied with the bridge
as it is.
Said one prominent citizen this morn
ing:-"It is all right for them to fix the
bridge, but that is not what the people
of Lafayette want. Their desire is a
new bridge and mo- one that will be a
constant menace. OF course we are CRATE
full for what has been lone and we realize
that the world wasn't made in a day.
Neither can a new bridge be procured
in a short time. But we are hopeful"

ASSAULTED A POLICEMAN.
But Monahan Says He Was a Lamb
and the POlfceman-a Wolf.

William Monahan was tried in the Cen
eraI sessions Court this morning for as
sault and battery on Policeman Quirk, OF
West Hoboken, on the night of May 10.
Quirk. who was not in uniform, was on
the station house steps. A man named
White, with a well developed jag, came
across the street and began to find fault
because the saloons were closed, and h.
wanted another drink. Quirk told him
he had better go home. Morahan came
across the street n told White to let
Quirk go to hell. <Quirk advised Mona
han to mind his own business. Monahan
said to Quirk, "You arrested me once,
but you can't do it again." He also used
vile language and Quirk put him under
arrest. ,Monahan struck Quirk over the
eve with a stone. After a struggle
Ouirk and Policeman Gaylard locked
omaha up. -
For the defense Lawyer Ryerson tried
to show that Quirk had animosity against
Monahan, and that it was his client VINO
was assaulted and abused. John +. Nc
Curdy, a reporter. partially c~orroborated
Ouirk's story. Policeman Gaylard cor
roborated it fully.
The defence was that Quirk was under
the Influence of liquor and that he was the
aggressor; that Monahan was brutally
assaulted by both Quirk and Gaylard; that
Ouirk continually bounded him, and that
When Ouirk was putting him in the cell
he chewed the defendants right ear. The
Jury is out.
