North II is reported that twenty five thousand
employees of the Northwestern Railroad Com
rany have signed the total abstinence pledge a
monster copy of which, with the twenty five
thousand signatures affixed, is on its way to the
president Of the corporation. The reason for
This wholesale resolution is said to be found in
the rule adopted by the railway officials in re-
du6ng their forces TO the usual winter basis.
Ar total abstaners, according to this rule, were
retained; only drinking men were stricken
from the payrolls. When those accustomed TO
indulge in alcoholic stimulants learned Of this
policy they took thought among themselves, and
the earnestness Of their self-searching is re-
hecied IN the great New Years resolution.
OF these two prohibition campaigns We pre-
fer the Northern one. Its advantages appear
both in the efficacy Of its tactics and in its
freedom from any suspicion of injustice. Pro-
hihit:on by statute is difficult TO obtain,
even in, outward form, because abstainers
and non-abstainers are equally concerned in
the enactment of laws. And the enforcement of
Iaw-made prohibition is still more arduous. be-
cause citizens OF differing proclivities and hab-
its are found among the police. On the juries
and on the bench. But when an employer, see
ing the greater efficiency of abstainers, DEGREES

PERSIA'S VICTORY.

The Persian Parliament and people have won
In their controversy with the Emperor. That
result appears TO be Enthusiastically indicated in
the Emperor's act OF taking before the Parlia
ment the oath to support the constitution. Just
as in Russia, the influences which moved the
Emperor to attempt resistance to the constitu-
tionaI authority of Parliament proceeded from
the princes and other members of the court, who
were reluctant to have their power and pecu-
MARY perquisites diminished The Empe-
ror himself objected to the provision that his
civil list of $5OO.000 should cover all his
penses including those of the harem, the kitch-
ems the parks and the stock farms His idea
was that all these things should be paid for
by the nation, leaving him his entire civil list
for personal pocket money. When he found
that Parliament resolute he resentfuly re-
fused to accept any civil list at all, declaring
that If Parliament would not grant him what he
ought to have he would take nothing, but would
support his establishment as best he could from
his private means
Parliament could have endured that turn of
affairs with equanimity but for the fact that
the Emperor forthwith turned about half of his
court and court hangers-on adrift to shift for
themselves and these at once began to clamor
for relief from Parliament and TO organize con-
spiracies and agitatiOns against the constitu-
tional system. Among these were the numerous
widows of the late Emperor Nasred-Deen, who
invaded the Parliament House after the man
ner of "A party Of British "suffragettes' and
presented al address setting forth the opinion
that as they were once the honored consorts
of the sovereign il did not seem fitting that
when they had grown old and grayhaired Par
lament should deprive them of their livelihood.
This view of the case was also taken by men,
Der of Parliament, who observed that European
parIiaments luade decent allowances to the
widows Of sorereigns To that it replied
that in Europe sovereign left only one widow,
not dozens of them, with perhaps hundreds Of
offspring. In the end Parliament Overwhelm-
ingIy decided to let the widows shift for them
selves holding that for many years they had
lived i'll luxury and had received fortunes at the
expense of impoverished taxpayers there was
no ground in law morals for compelling the
taxpayers to continue supporting them.
The Emperor finally issued a sort of ult-
matum demanding that Parliament should
strict its activities to legislation, leaving him
alone in all executive work, and permitting him
