Concealed Weapons.

Several state legislatures re.
Gently have considered more or
less seriously the matter of car.
rying concealed firearms. A
Texas statesman is one of the
latest to introduce bill prohibit
ing the "toting" of a deadly
weapon, and a bill introduced by
an Arkansas Legislature proposes
to require a license and wear
metal badge displaying conspicu
ously the word "Armed."
1t is SAID that the police com
missioner of New York city has
in storage more than 1000 re-
volvers which have been seized
and confiscated during the past
sixteen months. On recent oc.
casion 1870 revoIyers taken from
the persons of men running al
large in that city were added {
the collection IN one day. Thus
1T appears that the east is equally
culpable with the west II not
more so 10 the matter of carry
ing concealed weapons. Perhaps
in the end it may come to a cru
sade for the prohibition of th'
manufacture and sale Of pocket
