Nixon Was Dismissed.

Special Dispatch to the Standard.
Helena, July 31.-The supreme court

culars rejecting upon a candidate.
Nixon was prosecuted for criminal libel.
He was cor icted and sentenced for 4

THE RITUAL DECISION.
Incense Neither Enjoined Nor Permitted
by the Church Law.

London, July 31.-The archbishop Of
Canterbury, the Most Rev. Frederick
Templeton, D. D., to-day rendered a
decision in the ritual case which he
and the archbishop of York, the Most
Rev. William Dalrymple McLagnan,
ID. D., heard in May. The archbishops
declare that while far from saying the
use of incense and the carrying of
lights in a procession are unsuitable or
undesirable Accomplishments of divine
worship, they are obliged, in accord
ance with the prayer book, to come to
the conclusion that these adjuncts are
neither enjoined nor permitted by the
law of the Church of England. There
fore, the archbishops add though they
may be used to sweeten a church or
for purely lighting purposes, they urge
the clergy, for the sake of the peace
of the church, to discontinue their use
as part of the services.

OPPOSED TO A STRIKE.
Building Trades Unions May Not Be
Called Out.

Chicago, July 31.-While the strike of
the local brickmakers may result in
calling out the building trades unions
of the city, numbering about $4,000 men,
the conference held to-day between the
business agents representing the vari-
Gus crafts terminated without "a definite
decision in regard to the matter With
one accord the delegates refused to dis
close the incidents of the meeting, but
it is believed the majority of the build
ing trades representatives argued
against striking in sympathy with the
brickmakens, inasmuch as the latter are
merely trying to force the non-union
yards to recognize their organization.
A strike would affect many union yards
and the labor leaders do not believe, it
is said that the time for this is at hand.

Sunday Closing Loses.

The Sunday closing cases were tried
at this session of Superior court, and
It has cost the County about $225 to
demonstrate that, at this time, the
saloons will not be closed on Sunday,
although there is state law to that
effect, which seems to be valid. sPub-
lie opinion" as shown by the juries
on these cases, is probably response
BILE for this result, although the prose-
cution may have been weak in its evil
dence. The JOURNAL, as we'll as
good many citizens who are not espec-
tally interested in the saloons, resog-
uize the fact that they are here legally
and here to stay while there is demand
for their Commodity" and simply de-
sire that they shall be conducted in a
quiet and orderly manner as required
by their bonds; that public decency
and order shall be subserved in the
best manner possible.
While public sentiment may not now
favor these restrictions, those engaged
in selling liquors should bear in mind
that the abuse of their privileges,
would materially add to the sentiment
against them and their business.
While Sunday closing would assure
better order on that day, midnight
closing, in the opinion of the JOURNAL,
would be of more practical good to
that part of humanity, which INDUCES
in the continued drunk. The JOURNAL
would Suggest that the saloon-keepers
of Shelton voluntarily agree to keep
their front doors closed on Sunday, as
an evidence of willingness on their
part to respect the rights of ali citizens
and relieve the taxpayers Of the costs
