It fe rather surprising that the few men who seem to control the movements of liquor deal- | @ra, whether they appear in the courts, before Congress or at the District building, should | Rave permitted the ease of Patrick J. MeDon- * engh to go to trial, for although it resulted in ‘an apparent victory for the dealer there is within the rosy epple that which will not only speedily render it inedible but also prevent the Growth of other fruit that might perhaps have Proven luscious. The case was not acomplicated one. McDonough sold intoxicants at wholesale ‘under 4 license issued in e-cordance with the law of 1873, and althoug: he violated that con- was no punishment because the law was faulty in that Tespect, But with that the present case has no _ Connection. The charge was keeping an un- ” Meensed bar,and after hearing the testimony Judge Miller decided—he really could do nothing else—that the old license was good thronghout this license year. As the matter now stands McDonough and all other holders of licenses issued prior to March 8 msy sell at any hour or on any day until No- vember and yet cannot be prosecuted because the Courtof Appeals has decided that the pensities of the old law were wiped ont by the statute of March 3%. The condition of affairs is disgracefully anomalous, extraordinary no matter how it ts looked at and discreditable to our national Jawmakers. With this decision on which to stand « large number of liquor dealers may sell without let or hindrance for a season, but if they do the day of reckoning will srrive. ‘The unrestrained sale of liquor for three or four months may be the one thing needed to bring about the enactment of a law that will be stringent enough to protect the community's morals from such vicious assault and to make the evaders of decent requirements sorry they had not sense enough to control their lawless desires, ——_++< -—___ Of all the many things that should interest those who are careful as to the public health none are of greater importance than the dis- infection of sewage. Scientists have given the ‘matter much thought and in many cities have materially decreased the dangers naturally consequent upon the foolishly free circulation of poisoncus refuse that taints the atmosphere and does « great deal toward the spreading of the filthiest and most fatal forms of disease. Solids and fluids of many kinds have been used in efforts to destroy the germs which emanate tion, was days ago that the public became aware of the fact that electricity will do that which no other ehemical agent has been able to accomplish. Prof. Albert E. Woolf is the inventor of the Process, and the experiments have been con- ducted in the tewn of Brevater,N.¥. The ‘methods have the appearance of extreme sim- plicity. By electrolysis «fluid disinfectant is produced and the product is conveyed into the sewer, where it promptiy proceeds to kill such germs as those of cholera, diphtheria, scarlet fever, measles, typhoid and typhus. The method of manufacturing this anti-bacterial Nquid was inspected by Dr. Cyrus Ed- son, New York’s health commissioner, and = number of other practical and experienced wrestlers with unhygienic conditions, and they were much pleased. They went to the mouth ‘of the sewer and remarked the absence of odors and watched Prof. Woolf as he took agiass of the refuse and poured into it = quantity of fodide of potassium to reveal the presence of s most powerful germicide—ozone. Subsequently ‘the party saw the professor immerses piece of offensivaly putrid meat in his disinfecting solu- tion for one minute and were amazed when at the end of that brief period the beef was restored to s healthy color and was without smell It is said that forty thousand gallons of disinfectant— enough to treat the sewage of = town of thirty thousand tnhabitente—can be produced at a cost of $4 per day, the plant calling for an orig- inal investment of 95,000. Dr. Edson, who is ‘& good authority, is satisfied as to the efficiency of the plant and says it outranks ail recent dis- coveries in sanitary science. Washington can afford to investigate for itself; it may be that ‘this invention is the one thing needed to make this city more healthy than any other city on ‘the continent ———_+++____ Sympathy will go out freely from all parts of the county to the people of Pomeroy, the Iowa town that suffered so severely from the tornado that whirled through its streets Thurs- day evening, that swept more than fifty men, women and children into eternity snd Icft behind to suffer, a little longer at least, twice as many more. It was an awful occurrence, de- cannot restore the dead nor stop the aching of Dereaved hearts, it can give relief, and there should be « great deal of it contributed by those who bave enough and to spare. ‘The cyclone is one of nature's most mysteri- ous displays of force, and although science has devoted much time to its study, there is yet great deal to be learned. In this issue of Tux Stan will be found a very interesting chapter on the tornado and sneh of its methods as have been noted. Cyclonic disturbances rarely visit this vicinity, but the information con- tained in the article may some day prove of value. —_—_+ ++ ‘The Duke of Veragua is « shining example of the fact that poverty is no disgrace. In his ease it ix not even an inconvenience. No one will think the less of an impoverished noble- man is this country. We are too well «- quainted with them. Besides, Columbus was Poor once, and it is only consistent that family tradition should be sustained. ee ‘The future of Presbyterianism in the United Btates ise subject that should and doubtless does deeply interest a great many people who are without the Presbyterian fold, and although there has not yet appeared = prophet whose ability to foresee such things is recognized we may be able to gaze dimly into faraway years ‘through the misty glasses of seers who base their conclusions on probabilities. One of those who would rend the veil is Dr. Charlies A Briggs, of whom the re- ligious world and the world that is not religious have heard much. Of the past and Present of the Presbrterian Church Prof. Briggs knows a great deal, and possessing a large fund of information he is a capable if slightly Prejudiced person. At length he has, in the Worth American Review, discussed the church as it was and as it is, and from premises that will be conceded by a considerable proportion of Presbyterianism proceeds to argue the probability that there will be a series of heresy trials for several years, continuing until those whom he terms the ultra-conservatives exhaust themselves and tire the patience of the church. ‘This condition will, he feels sure, bring about & reaction “so strong, so sweeping, so irre- sistible in its demands for breadth of thought, liberty of scholarship, intelligent ap- Propriation of the wealth of modern science and the efficiency of modern methods of work, ‘that the reactionaries will be swept all at once and forever into insignificance.” This, in view efebanges that hare taken place in the last twenty or thirty years, may be regarded by the doctor's sympathizers as not an unreasonable statement, for he and they declare that the fores of modern scholarship and steadily de- veloping science is irresistible, and although it eruskes obstruction yet they claim that it does Ro injury to the living truth and cannot even scratch tho polished surface of true Christianity. Dr. Briggs himself asserts that this force will Probably work no injury to the Presbyterian Chareh, bat he is confident that the “ultra con- servative” party mustbedestroyedbyit Butthe Goctor’s liberal views are not denominationslly bounded, and although he debstes as to the future of that organization in which Le has the Greatest interest be sees clearly that “all American churches are in the stream of that tendency which ts rushing on toward the unity of Christ's church. The hedges which separate the denominations are traditional theories and Practices; but they are no longer realities to thinking and working men snd women.” This plain statement is a feature of the Briggs argu- ment, which has it that day after day there is living testimony to prove beyond a per- adventure that the liberals of every Christian denomination are in hearty accord with each other—probably, as Dr. Briggs suggests, more so than they are with the conservatives of the bodies to which they belong. The question to be answered in the near future is thus stated: “Can the liberals remain in comfort in their several denomina- tions and so become the bridges of church unity; or will they be forced to unite in # com- prebensive frame of church unity outside the existing denominations; or will they rally around the more liberal communions?” And after asserting that the liberals are made com- fortable among Episcopalians, Congregation- alists, Baptists and Methodists and most un- comfortable among Presbyterians, the aggres- sive disputint—the thorn in the General As- sembly’s flesh—says that the liberals may possi- bly, “after a year or more of battle for Uberty, be compelled to retire from the existing Presbyterian Church and abandon it to traditional, unscholarly and fossilized majority; and then organize a liberal | ¥, Presbyterian Church, as has been done twice before in this country.” He does not regard such a movement as likely to occur soon. He believes the liberals will struggle on, will in- ‘vestigate, will continue to study the higher criticism, will continue to seek God through the church and the reason as weil as the Bible, will be “‘patient, brave, painstaking snd heroic until the Presbyterian Church becomes as broad, catholic and progressive as her Congre- gational and Episcopal sisters,” will be part of &@ united Protestantism which is to move toward the “grander unity in which the Boman and Greek communions will likewise share.” The robust if “conservative opponents of Dr. Briggs will probably not be content to al- low him to block out » future for Presbyterian- ism, and no doubt reply to his Review article will be forthcoming soon. —ee—__. Michael Mullorphy was just an ordinary sort ofaman. Not highly educated nor extrsordi- narily refined, but « plain being possessed of an sversge amount of common sense. He was conductor on the South Or- ange Electric Railway and must there- fore have known something of electricity and its workings. In company with some of his fellows he left the car stables and proceeded to # nearby saloon for the purposes of refreshment. Obstructing the doorway wasa small wire—a | broken fragment of telephonic metai—and Mul- lorphy put up his hand to brush it aside, He died simost instantly, for the telephone wire had fallen across « trolley wire and was charged with current enough to kill as many men as could touch the swinging and apparently barm- Jess fragment. Mullorphy's fate is easily within reach of every one who resides in city where electrical wires of high voltage are permitted to associate closely with telegraph and telephone wires, No excuse can be offered in behalf of the exposed trolley wire; it cannot | th even be classed as a necessary evil. It has been demonstrated beyond doubt that the under- ground trolley can be easily and profitably operated. The evidence isin this city visible to any one who can see its workings and under- | a) stand the simplest of mechanical and electrical truths. The overhead trolley is a oriminal ‘unisance, a murderous attemptat economy that would sacrifice priceless lives to add a few dol- lars to corporative profits, No community should tolerate it one moment longer than is absolutely necessary, and no man who has any regard for his fellow beings’ would endeavor to inflict ite presence upon those who have done him no injury. If there must be trolley wires, put them underground. ——_o22—____ When the opening of the World's Fair on Sunday was under discussion it was claimed by | one class of people that it would lesd toan utter desecration of the day and make it an occasion of general and unseemly festivity. By another class it was declared that such a step was necessary in order to give the working | ror, classes an opportunity to see the great display and that 1t would bring in sufficient revenue to put the enterprise ina sound financial condi- tion. Actual test has shown that both these theories were utterly wrong. The people have not flocked to the Fair in such numbers as to warrant any ides of © general disregsrd for Sunday, and the coffersof the management have not Increased their contents by anything like the sum that was expected. The public has allowed the disputants to have their say and has gone on its way in an even unroffied man- ner, as a well-regulated American public should do. The sentiment, whether religious or purely practical and humane, in favor of a day of complete rest, remained stable throughout the discussion, and at its close disproved the idea that it existed only because the occasion for its self annibilation was absent. In the meantime the Fair gets bigger and better every day, and should be quite able to take care of itself re- gardless of the extra Sunday patronage that was hoped for. ——__ee—____ Now is the time for President Cleveland to upset another party tradition and set a new political precedent by sppointing ex-President Harrison to the vacancy on the Supreme Bench. —__~oo____ Pugilists Corbett and Mitchell might at least amuse the public by getting up a nickel-in-the- slot phonograph fight. —_—_~ee___ If the occasion were not so serious Chicago would probably say that Altgeld had made a Ward MoAllister of himself. ——___o-ee___ Up to date the Geary law has given the citi- zens of this country a good deal more trouble than it bas the Chinese. —+-___ Senator Sherman is not an old fogy.
