And if there is no such reason in this representative case what earthly reason is there for believing that the law would te of service in any con ceivable case? There is but one essential difference between arbitration by law as proposed in the bill and arbitration by mutual agreement without any law ties pay for the while under the pay this expense in this let the law have the benefit of it but we doubt very much if auy intelligent person will regard it as an advantage The Massachusetts Liquor Associa tion is inteudeil to make the business of liquor selling respectable Its members argue that liquor dealers are held in disrepute ty the rest of the community not so much because of the nature of their business as because they are so frequently violators of law The law forbid their selling liquor after 10 at night They deliberately violate the law by keeping open long after that time The law forbids the sale of liquor onSundays holidays and election days but it is persistently defied The law forbids the sale of liquor without a license yet it can bo had at almost any drug store The association intends to see that the laws are enforced and to relieve their business of the brand of outlawry which those who violate the law have put upon it On the other hand members of the association will bo protected from the prosecution and persecution of Law and Order Leagues who aim not at the en forcement of law but at the breaking down of business The massacres of Chinamen in Wyoming and the wholesale mobbin of them in Cali fornia Oregon and Washiugton Territory did not excite the sauctimouious George Hoar of Massachusetts in the least but the butchery of the negroes in Carrollton Miss caused him to appear at the bar of the Senate at once with a bid He would have national inquests on cases like that in Mis sissippi the victims were of one race and presumably of one political while as to race uprising in the where the victims are of one race and the offenders presumably of both political parties lie would remain entirely passive The Pecksniffinn character of George political morality is well illustrated in the position that he has assume i on these subjects Mob violence is no less disgraceful iu Wyoming or in California than it is in Mississippi It is no greater crime to ehoot down a room full of netrroes than it is to destroy a room full or Cbinatnen The ixilitical label which white men may wear has no more to do with Hie slaughter of negroes in Mississippi than it has in he slaughter of Chinamen in IV ashington or Wyoming In both cases the lawlessness is the product of a vicious and criminal spirit which manifests itself under varying condi tions wherever human society exists cago Herald THIS

THE SILVER CONTEST To day in the liou of Representatives the silver question comes up in its several forms and unless something unforeseen occurs the bat tie will ba fought to a finish The main mens uies are the ree Coinage bill and the bill suspending the coinage but there are several side issues among them ihe Warner scheme The indications are that in the end the silver question will be left jast where it is now though there will be a flood of more or less silver speech before that conclusion is reached In the present condition of affairs and es pecially in the present tamper of the public mind this is probably the Lest that can be done with the sliver problem The ree Coin age bill would be at best a risky experiment and ought not to pass The Suspension bill might very properly be passed as a conserva tive measure but the judgment cf the people I is clearly against it owing largely to a belief that it is a measure in the intere of creditors bankers and Eastern capitalists With such an opinion rooted in the public mind it would be folly for a representative body like the House to pass tlie bill There is a practical advantage to which The ree Press has referred heretofore in leaving silver legislation just where it is at present The evils which the opponents of continued coinage believe they foresee in such continu ance are theoretic evils In support of their lielief they have no facts of experience though the argument from proliabilities is undoubted ly plausible and strong This argument had however do weight with the friends of con tinued coinage Regarding such continuance as a positive benefit svuti of them on one ground and some on another they have scouted all prognostications of evil as the fruit of unreasoning prejudice or of a selfish devotion to the gold standard Tlie situation is one therefore where experience alone can determine who is right and who is wrong The only iray in which it can be demonstrated to the satisfaction of the friends of silver that its continued coinage under the present law will produce injurious results is to continue the coinage until those results begin to be mani fest This is not the wLsest and most conservative way to settle the silver question But it seem to be the only practical way iu a country where the people rule Lansing April The rearrangement of calendar of the Supreme Court is as
