The result ,of this ruling, how-ever, will be to weaken prohibition and to strengthen the seutimcnt in favor of high license, which, has been demon-strated to be a practical and business-like method of handliug the liquor question. j The original package decision of the supreme court of the United States is regarded as a black cyo to state pro-hibition laws. The decision, which was rendered in an appeal case from the prohibition state of Iowa, is to the ef-fect that liquor, liko other articles of merchandise, Is a subject of interstate comniereo, aud that any state law which prohibits the transportation of merchandise from one state to another, or the receipt of the same by the person to whom the consignment is made, is in conflict with the laws of the general government aud therefore unconstitu-tional.

He has been confirmed by the senate. Affairs in the new republic of Bra-zil, if recent, reports arc correct, arc not iu as satisfactory a condition as the friends of republican institutions would like to see them. A great mistake has been made by President Fonsecaiu curtailing tho liberty of tho press. When the new government was organ-ized, freedom of the press and of speech was guaranteed. The retrogressive action of tho government is causing great discontent and adverse comment among the people. It is to be hoped, however, that the trials and difficulties naturally incident to a revolution from monarchy to republicanism whl soon be overcome, and that the new republic will soon be on a.solid and permanent foundation. . Look out for another good paper on Saturday. P. S. Keep your eye on The Times. .' CUFFED AND CONDENSED. At Richmond, Va.. they have what they call the Confederate White house. They propose to use it as a museum for war' relics. ' . The. "Bohemian Girl" has been a source of profit to many, and yet the composer of tbe opera is in distress by reason of poverty. As a picturesque poser, Senator is a success. In his lato photo-graphic interview he assumed "twenty-eigh- t attitudes." A plant in Mexico called the pombo-lan- o is said to be analogous to quinine. It is stronger and lias the reputation ot being death to ague. Catching the lights and shadows ,is a common event now. Nearly all the handsome dinners given in Philadelphia are photographed by flash light. Neglect is often worse than ignor-ance. The latter may be remedied but it is" hard to cure the sin of ignorance. It is the cancer that eats away many a life. At a dinner by the "Last Man's club" in Philadelphia two candles were un lighted, signifying the death of two members. Plates, knives and glasses were laid for the dead, and the .orbet box was a minature package inscribed "The Last Man's Elixir of Life." A great petroleum excitement pre-vail- s at Parkersburg, VV.Va., some very large wells having been opened in the suburbs. .Every day large tracts of land are leased and many wells are be-ing drilled. Farmers have given up raising crops, and professional men abandon their otlices lo invest in oil. The report that Moody and Sankey had fallen out proves to be untrue. They are still as brothers dear, and the story of the rupture between them was started by uuregeuerated sinners. Occasionally an original" man is re-membered and sometimes is rewarded. "Unclo Billy" Powers, formerly a Bap-tist clergyman, is the only living Gjorgiao who cast a vote for Lincoln in 18(50. One other voter in tho state was for Lincoln at the time but be w;is killed during the war. Powers was a Blaine elector iu 1884, and is now a cen-sus supervisor.

Out into the mist and the fitful rain, Thro' the streets of the uolsy town, He wanders once, and be walks again, And be searches up and down ; He is sick at heart with the ceaseless smart Of a hope that to long deferr'd But how can he rest from the weary quest Till his pitiful prayer Is heard?- - Sucb a trifling boon he makes bold to ask, And so humble, when all Is said-J- ust the right to work at some lowly task,' And to earn his dally bread. But In vain he stops at the suioke-wreat- a shops And the door of the crowded mill ; . In this eager race for an houest place, There are hundreds before him still. And slowly his courago began to wane-- He would sink in nis mute despair But for Just one vision that haunts his brum And rankles and festers there. The vision wild of his wife and child, All pallid, and weak, and wan, And thoughts of tlieni so, m.tnelr helpless woo, Are the daggers that drive him oa. And softly he says to his throbbing heart, 'Ah, me! If I could but take Some place In the turbulent, bustling mart And work for my dear ones' sake! For they look in vain, from the depths of pain, For tho bread that I cannot earn, And I stand bes.de, with my hands quite Med, And 1 know not where to turn. "It Is false," ho thinks, In his Borrow then, "To boast of bis country's might, Since mothers, and children, and stalwart men Are hungry and cold tonight. And it we dare sue for aught to do The cars of the world are dumb. We are doom'd by fate but to watch and wait For the work that will not come. "Ah, yes," he says, "they are great and wise, Are the men who rule tbls laad. And t hey point to the storcfi of merchandise That we see on every hand. 'An oversupply,' they loudly cry ; Let the gates of toil be lock'd ; For the market teems with all wealth, It seems, And the channels ot trade are block'd.' "Ah, me! can the world be too full of food--Is there truth iu this selfish vaunt-Wh- ile down In tne mid:rt of tae multitude We are dying tod iy of want! But how can we buy if no work comes n'gh, And how can they sell without? There's something amiss In it all, I wis, And I cannot make It out." And backward and forward, and to aud fro His tremulous footsteps roam, For how can he carry bis tale of woe To his desolate, dreary home? And tbe pitiless blast blows thick and fast ' As tne night comes sweeping down, And his heart feels cold as the mists that fold 'Kound the streets of the darksome town. . Senator Wolcott, of Colorado, is " ati expert lisherniiin. His latest catch is a Bass, weigluug about 135 pounds. She is a Buffalo widow, and tho wed-- 1 ding-wil- l lake place in the near future. The Tribune I as. as u. ual, rushed to tho of lis r'eh and n .uei.lhtl fricn s who own stock in the Salt Lako City Railway company. The argu-ments used iii this- - morning's is-sue are the same , which the Tribune always' employs 'in discussing all olliefal acts which arc not originated by its own immediate coterie. The members of the council are branded as dishonest because they have seen tit to permit the operation of now" enterprises .which may become' rivals iu business to tho Tribune's monopolistic crowd. A member of the council, who pronounces the Tribune's charge as unjust and uncalled for, declares with some considerable feeling that the attack ou tho council Vould have come with much better grace from an honest editor one who at least makes some effort to pay his honest debts. ,. - - , The Great. Salt Lakci' has been changed from a monthly to a weekly publication. Wo congratulate Mr. Beslin, the blind editor, upon tho pros- - pcrity of his paper. It is a credit to Utah. ' Tammany has endorsed the New York ballot reform bill. There must Tie something crooked in the bill, or else it is such a good measure that Tam-many hopes to kill It with its endorse-ment. The question is. often. asked whether a contract made by telephone is bind-ing. Several law-suit- s have grown out of such contracts. This question was recently decided by Judge Valliaut, of St. Lonls. lie holds that contracts oy telephone, when proven, are quite as binding as any other contracts, but that there is an obstacle to tho certainty of the proof, owing to tho difficulty of Identifying tho person with whom, telephonic commu-nication is held. Tho case in which the decision was given is thus summar-ized by Bradstreut's: "The plaintiff company sued to recover tho value of certain lots of irou sold to tho defend-ants, regarding tho price of which there was a dispute. The defendants testi-fied that they called up a certain number and asked who it was, and the - answer eamo back that it was the' plaintiff conjpany. Defendants then ask the price of iron delivered through the month of August, and the price which they claimed as the con-tract price was given. Tho plaintiffs' testimony was to tho effect that there were but twO luen' connfectod with its concern who had, authority to make such contracts, and that ueither of thorn ever heard of tho telephonic conversa-tion until after tho controversy arose." Tho plaintiffs won their case, but had tho defendants beon able to identify the person with whom the telephonic con-versation was hold as a person author-ized to mako contracts, the contract by telephone would have held good. The Saturday issue of The Times will be a twelve-pag- e paper, and will as usual contain numerous attractive spe-cial features. It will bo of great inter-est to tbo reader, aud an excellent ad-vertising medium for our business men. An immense meteor Hushed across the Iowa skies the other evening. It was just after tho United States su-premo court decision on the liquor question. It is barely possiblo the mo-too- r was "an original package" and was seen through a glass darkly. ' The old streetcar company seems to be greatly exercised over the action of the council iu permitting the iuvestniont of capital in new street transportation This may explain why the couueil is assailed aud four unnamed members are referred to by tho Tribune as dishonest men. --Mr. McCallum, chairm an of the Lib-eral coinnii.tt,ec, Is , notifying tho mom--ber- s of his party that they must regis-ter for election.. The action of Mr. McCallum Is timely and proper, as tho registration for the city eleotiou in Febiiary will not answer for tho coming election iu August. THE INDUSTRIAL FIELD. Buffalo has a working-boy'- s home. They . talk of making bread from wood. ; Cleveland butchers will manufacture ice.. , ... - Movable iron houses arc made in Kngiaud. Tiffin, O., plasterers work ten hours for!J.50. Painters in a New York shop are out for$i).50. The average (lay's work in Saxony is thirteen hours. Brooklyn plasterers have won eight hours and a day. Some Boston clergymen are advo-cating eight hours. A Dubuque, la., judge decided that Sunday shaving was a necessity. Boston eleetrotypcrs by a striko com-pelled a man to join tho union. New Britain (Conn.) painters have been granted nine hours, ten-hou- r pay. A Brooklyn bricklayer lost a suit to compel the union to take him back to the society. , At Poineroy, Pa., a dozen eggs bring only ten cents worth of merchandise in exchange. At Oltou, Switzerland, a convontion with 548 delegates, represented lliO.OOO workmen. In Victoria, B. C, no masou or stone-cutter will work on a building where Chinese help is employed. The Detroit street railway company has invited its employes to join the ben-eficial association which tho company is forming. . In Australia when'1 the carpenters worked ten hours. they got twenty-fou- r shillings a week. Now they get sixty shillings for eight hourc. Berlin gold beaters havo succeeded in producing sheets of gold only an inch in thickness, yet capable of shutting out tho strongest electric light. Herr Rebel, the Gcinian socialist, is a genuine workiugmau. He started as an ivory-turne- and even now when something displeases him in tho estab- - rt L.UrtU tL L..l...l .. 1 ..! of which he is a partuer, ifo tucks up his sleoves and shows the iguoraut or obstinate workman "how it shoiuit be done." The . International Boot and Shoe Workers' society has 107 unions and 22,000 members; only 20U0 remain in tho Knights of Labor. Tho Rochester branch celebrated the anniversary of organization by a parade and mass meeting. Tho condition of Philadelphia shoe workers was deplored. . A HEKlOl S CHARGE. . Tho Tribunomakes a very serious charge ugaiust four members of the city council as iouows; A fow weeks since the Tribune notified the people that four members of the city council were directly interested iu certain pending franchises. Thegreutobjeetionlstbat we have Homo dishonest men In tho couueil. and thero Is no esttraato to be made "of what thry will do. - It will be seen that this charge, inas-much us it does not name tho four couucilnieu, nor the dishonest mcu, is a reflection on tho whole council. Until tho men are named, every member of the city legislature is liable to bo laid under tho ban of 'suspicion.. If the Tribune has proof of any dishonesty on the part of any member 'of tho" city council. It should, in justice to the inno-cent members of that body as well as to the public, come out bojdly with its in-dictment and give the name. If there are crooked men in the couueil, tho public is entitled to know tho full in-formation. ' . The city council owes it to itself and the public to demand an investigation of tho Tribune's charges. It won't do to have tho city government tainted with a suspicion of crookedness. So far as The Times' Is concerned, it will not believe that thero are any crooks or boodlers in the council until the charge is proven, and in that event their immediate resignation and pun-ishment will bo demanded. Wllt.V Cleveland opened his mouth he put his foot in it. His quarrel with I)aua has divided the Now YiM'k demo-crats into two factions, the split being so wide that it is not likely that the breach can ever be healed. It is not improbable that Cleveland has killed his chances for the presidential nom-ination. The proposed, Fourth of July cole-fcrati-iu this city should be made a .brilliant success. It will immediately follow the Ogden carnival, aud a host of visitors will uaturally eomo from that' city to Salt Lake. Unless, how-ever, tho celebration is carried out on a grand scale it would bp better to have ' ' none ataii. . " , , Tus paving law went into effect May 1st, and yet wo know of no definite steps having been taken toward paving the -- business confer of the city. Tho people aro becoming impatient over- the delay of this important im-provement. It is hoped that tho coun-cil at its next meeting will take hold of this matter in a manner that will con.-vinc- o the public that it means busi-ness. Assistan r Postmaster Geklti al CLAnKSON, who has been engaged in decapitating, democratic postmasters, has'atlast become tired of the job. It is now definitely aunouuecd that he will .retire ou July 1st. Wo suspect, ; however, that Mr. Clarkson is a disap-pointed man; owing to the fact that Mr. Wanamaker (Iocs not propose to resign iu order to give him a promotion to a full cabinet seat. ' FtltSONAL PARAGRAPHS. ., Mrs. Manning, tho widow of the late secretary of tho treasury, will live henceforth ebietly in Washington. A movement is on foot iu West Vir-ginia to uominato Stephen B. Elkins for congress iiv opposition to W. L. Wilson. Tho frieuds of James Russell Lowell aro alarmed because he recuperates so slowly from his recent attack of illness. Senator Woleott, of Colorado, is to be married at an early date to Mrs. Bass, who was formerly a resident of Buffalo.

The prize for the best design for a soldier's monument offered by the stato of Iowa has been awarded to a woman Mrs. Harriet A. Ketchum. James Whileomh Silm-'- s poems bring him trom $2.) to $30 eacli. In the early days of his vcrsomaking he was glad to get one tenth of these sums for his poems. Sir Frederick Lcighton, the famous painter, is a man with curly hair and a ruddy face that is fringed with a thick beard. He is sixty years old and has painted about 130 pictures. Ihkke has been introduced in con-gi'e-a bill lo ' establish" aland' court. Tho principal object of this court will be, to settle claims arising under tho Spanish and Mexican land grants. Under the treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo and the Gadsden purchase thero was acquired from Mexico all the territory included within the boundaries of Ne-vada,- Utah, Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona. So it will bo seen that tho jurisdiction of the' proposed laud court will be quite extensive Tho lilll Is a much needed measure, particu-larly with regard to New Mexico iu which there is a very largo, number of laud claims whicn havo been iu dispute foj" many years.
