ENFORCE THE LAW.

Governor Blease has called
upon the sheriffs, magistrates
and constables to enforce the
LIQUOR as we'll as all the criminal
laws of the State, and he takes
the position that each county
must foot the bill. It is all right
to require these officers to en-
force the laws, but we cannot
see how they are to do so unless
the people take a hand in the
game. 1t is not a part Of the
duty of these officials to go about
looking for the violation OF law:
they are to execute such war-
rants as are demanded by those
who wish to stop lawlessness,
and unless warrants are sworn
out by persons who have the IN
formation the officers are help.
less. If constables are employed
by the county authorities it is
right for the county employing
them to pay for their services,
and wherever the law is being
fagrantly violated the county
authorities should have the pow
er, if they have it not now, to
employ a sufficient force to en-,
force the law.

It begins to look as if Senator
Lorimer, who was recently de-
clared by the Senate mot guilty, "

of ridding the Senate of the man

dence of the discovery ola ''slush

ment. In the courts no man can
be put upon trial twice for the
same ofense, but in the law
makingebodies as long as be has
opposition to base a charge his
conduct can be investigated we
suppose. Mr.. Lorimer's seat in
the greatest parliamentary body
in the world is uncomfortable, to
say the least of it, and as he is a
Republican, and the majority be;

not surprise US at all If ne Will

BILLY BRYAN PLEASE GO HOME.

The meddling with the Sena-
torial organization by William
Jennings Bryan is not calculated
to do good for the Democratic
party, is our opinion. Bryan op-
posed the election Of Senator
Martin for minority leader but
he failed to land his man and
Martin won out. Some of the
Senators resent Col. Bryan's in
reference and properly so Now
it is reported that he intends to
go into the Virginia campaign to
make speeches against the re-
election Of the Senator from
Virginia. Martin does not sub
scribe to Bryan's initiative and
referendum ideas; for that reason
he proposes to drive out. of the
party those who will not bow
to his will. The Democratic
party at this time has a fine pros
pect to win the next national con-
test but if it listens to men who
have a crouch or some pet they
wish to fondle, instead Of bring
ing into line ali Democrats i'm
bued with enthusiasm, it might
as well stop right now. Some
one has said ;tthe Democrats can
be counted upon to do the foolish
thing" and it really looks so; just
upon the eve of a winning fight
we find the several times leader
meddling with the congress and
opening sores which had been
fast healing.
There isno gainsaying it, Bryan
is a great man but he can never
be president. The country is
looking for a Harmon, a Wilson:
a Folk whereupon all factions
Of the party can unite, and with
any. of the leaders named we be.
lieve there is hope of a change
of party control, but creating
schims in the ranks by butting
into State contests, Or undertak.
ing to dictate the vote of lndl-
vidual congressman, is a cause
for resentment which will be
brought into action whenever It
is attempted, especially is it to
be resented to have a leader but
ting in after the party in caucus
makes a decision or makes a
selection.

TREY SCOnN HIM.

Caleb Powers, after having
been three times convicted of
murder, was pardoned by the
Governor Of his State, and the
people of his district elected him
to congress. but Powers is not
having an easy road in that
august body. The Democratic
members of his delegation will
not serve OF any committees with
him. Now to be consistent the
Kentucky delegation shouldq ques.
ton the right of Powers to a seat
in congress, and as the Demo
Gratis are strongly in the majority
they can be about as fair to him
as was the Kentucky juries which
convicted Powers for completely
in the murder of Governor Goble.
Powers was the victim Of a
wrought up political sentiment.
We never did believe from the
evidence that he was properly
convicted, but Goble was killed
during a political revolution, and
some one had to be sacrificed; It
fell to Powers lot to draw the
unlucky straw. The fact of
Powers, a Republican, seeking
vindication from the masses, and,
too, securing his vindication
when the country everywhere
was going Democratic speaks
more forcibly for his innocence
than the verdicts Of an hundred
iurieS.

BLITZ WAS MODEST.

Yet Webster Wouldn't Give the Ma
gician Treasury Job.
During the presidency Of Mr.. Tylei
had occasion to call on Daniel Web
ster, then secretary Of state.
Glancing at my card, he turned and
readily extended his hand with, "Wel-
come, signor! No hocus pocrs among
my papers," covering them with his
arms.
After explaining to him my object I
received the required information. We
laughed and chatted few minutes,
and was about to retire when men
toned that I was an applicant for
Office and hoped I could rely upon his
influence in the matter.
"You, a magician, an Office seeker,
signor?"
"There is only one, sir, I aspire to-;
all others I should refuse without re-
gard to their emoluments."
tWeu, what one is that!" questioned
the great statesman in his deep and
powerful voice.

eyes, sir. You might give me 1OO,-
600 to count and watch me closely, but
you would find only 5000 when I re-
turned them"
''Signor," he exclaimed, with lively
animation, "there Is no chance for
you; there are better magicians here
than you. For there would not be
$4,000 left after their counhng!-

THE GOVERNOR WATCHES The TREASURY.

The Stevenson Act providing
for the distribution of the $780,
600 dispensary fund was held up
by the governor because in his
Judgment no just distribution of
this fund could be made under
the terms of said Act; however,
Governor Bleese would not take
the full responsibility to veto it
until it was first submitted to the
State board of education, the
governor saying if the board ap-
proved the Act he would sign it
and if they did not he would veto
it. The board heard the objec-
tions to the Act and by a unani-
NOUS vote sustained the gov
ernor's position. A substitute
bill will be introduced at the
next session, until then, the
school money will be hung up in
the treasury. This is an unfor-
tunate situation for the schools,
as most of them are short of
funds, and are sorely in need Of
all the money they can get to
run this year. The fact of the
governor being unanimously sus.
tanned by the board shows that
he must have been right in his
original objections, and that he
is guarding this fund properly.

The French government is
somewhat excited over the dis
covery Of it's secrets on the Nor
accan situation being sold to
Germany. It was a charge of
this kind which put Dryfuss in
exile, and other punishments were
visited upon him to the extent
that the world cried out against
the actroclous intrigue. This
time DR. fuss is not accused, but
there will be some other scape
goat for Tallyrand to vent his
wrath upon. If there is anything
a F'renchman hates worse than
anything else it is for a German
to get hold Of anything which
has the semblance Of belonging
to France. A Frenchman will
even get insulted if you ask him
to have a piece of Limburger
cheese.

A report of the county com.

A report of the county COM
missioners of 1879 was shown US
Saturday, which showed the ex-
penses of the county in that year
to have been Sc, 234.5 55, and the re-
ceipts from all sources S5:948.4O.
Atthat time we had the old form of
commissioners composed Of three
members; now we have a super
visor and two advisors. The ex-
penses are five times as much
now. Is it the development since
1879 that has increased the coun-
ty's expenses: We are satisfied
1.-THE increased cost of material
and supplies has much to do with
the increase in the expenditures,
but at the same time if we could
ever get the county to operate on
a cash basis the method would
be a saving to the taxpayers we
believe.

Notwithstanding the increase

Notwithstanding the increase
in taxation from year to year,
the State will be forced to bor-
row 100000 this year to meet
the expenses of the government.
Governor Ansel recommended
that a sufficient levy be made so
the State will not be forced to
borrow, but while such a course
looks reasonable and is all right
in theory. it will not work in
practice, for the reason that the
more money raised by taxation
the more needs will be discover
ed for it's immediate use, there
fore, if the levy was raised it
would not be two years before
another deficit would occur. We
believe it is economy to borrow
money every year, and pay the
interest gather than to open the
doors to extravaganza.

Several people have spoken to me
lately about taking some steps towards
forming an organization to build the
Confederate Monument. About a year

ton plan, and only about 800 mas been
raised that way, but I am satisfied there
are others who will contribute llberally
if they see that the monument is going
to be built. There is no doubt about it,
the monument ought to be erected. 1
believe this is the year to do It. There
is no politics this year to interfere with
the plan, and there should be a general
patriotic coming together OF the people
of the county and raise the money.
