It for no other reason, the average citizen ought to work and vote for Constitutional Prohibition In the hope that It would head off the infernal license war with which this county Is afflicted each year.

And to think that the war is wasted in the name of Christianity I In Pittsburg on Monday a meeting was held under the auspices of the various temperance societies of the county for the purpose of adopting a plan of notion on the Constitutional amendment question. State Chairman A. Stevens, of the Prohibition Executive Committee, was not present, BB expected. The attendance was not as large as an- tlcipated, uot more than 20 persons being present.

Joined Her Husband When, a few weeks since, we were sailed upon to i-ecofd the death of Mr. J. Ross McLean, of Salefli it became our painful duty also to add that his beloved wife, must, in View of her age and feeble physical condition, soon follow.

A joint convention of professional Prohibitionists of both sexes was held in Pittsburg on Tuesday, at which steps were taken to prevent the carrying of tho Constitutional Amendment, tho' the fanatics no doubt supposed they were working for temperance For instance, Rev.

jlfundon was afraid that if tho amendment should pass it would not be enforced because it would be in the hands of its enemies. He said all temperance workers would have to rally under the banner of tho Prohibi. tion party before there could bo complete prohibition. Rev. J.

Tho ground on which tho )0titiou is based is that there was no specific remonstrance against her ap- ilication for license.

Tho Mercer County Medical Society is one of the strongest organizations of Its kind in the State.

The Prohibitionists of Greeuvillo lave caused the Grand Jury of Mercer jounty to indict Joseph Fleming, n-ominont Pittsburg druggist, for soling liquor in their bailiwick without icenso. As Mr. Fleming holds wholesale license, his right to ship liquor to my part of tho State without violation jf law 'seems plain enough. If ho has that right his license doesn't license, Venango Sj)ectator. It was not theProhibitionists of Greenville, but tho good citizens of Mercer, who chocked Druggist Fleming up in wild career.

Marriage Law Amendment. Hon. Henry Hall is interested in tho Ufarriago License law, and has an amendment to offer in the Houso.

Tho ionstruction of tho present law differs nearly every county in tho State. The bill requires that the "parties" desiring a license appear before the Reg- ster. i Tn some counties this is interpreted! to moan both tho man and the woman, while in others it is taken to refer to but one of them. It is stated that the original bill road "party," and the franier, Senator Har- inn, intended it to be that way. It has boon changed, however, to road "parties," and henco the confusion.

Cider "Vinous or Splrltoue?" The Court of Quarter Sessions of Warren county, in a case of the Commonwealth vs. Roy burg, for selling eidoi without a license, held thatas tho drink was not "intoxicating" no indictment would lie for its sale without license. The Supremo Court, in an opinion by Mr.

Justice Clark, reversed the Court of Quarter Sessions, and holds that tho question whether it was intoxicating was not the tost, but whether it was within any one of tho four classes ol liquor known as "mall, brewed, vinous ov spirltous." Cider being admittedly neither malt nor brewed liquor, a jury must determine whether it is within tho class of "vinous or spiritous liquors," for which a license must bo obtained, Tlio case was sent back to Warren county for a new trial.
