The best way to get rid of a bad law is to enforce it. If any of the provisions of this law | prove to be detrimental to the public interest or injurious to private rights, trial, the repeal or modify them. This will doubtless be the position of Mayor after a f; lgislature will utive Boyd, upon whom, as chicf exe officer of this city, devolves the duty laws, within the cor- poration limits, In the discharge of this duty the mayor of Omal d our police authorities should have the to enforce the support of all law abiding citizens, Whether this law can be strictly en- forced in a city liko Omaha is, how- Tn Chicago, moderate and ever, a serious problem, whero they have a ve reasonable license law, there are said to be abuut one thousand dives and resorts that pay no license and manage to keep up the traffic in liquors in de- fianceof thelaw, Whether thisisowing to the connivance of the polico or the sharp practice of the liquor dealers, we do not know, 1t is presumable that the same tac- tics will be pursued in Omaha, more especially in viewof the fact that very few of our liquor dealers can comply with the iron-clad proyisions of the Slocumb law, even if they have the necossary $1,000 to plank down with their apy 3 Had the legislaturo simply enacted a law fixing $1,000 as the annual license for cation for licen malt and spirituous liquors, there would have very little - kicking, although such high license would inovitably build up & menopoly in the liquor traflic. But the Slocnmb bill tains many unreasonable provisions with which very few dealers can afford retailing been con- to comply, and most of them never can comply. Sections 6 and 7, 16 and 19, of the act, read as follow Sco. 6. No person shall be licensed to sell malt, spirituous or vinous li- quors by any county board, or the au- thorities of any city or village, unless ho shall first give bond in the penal sum of five thousand (&5,000) dollars, payablo to the state of Nebraska, with at least two good and sufficient sureties, freeholders of the county in which the license is to be granted, to be approved by the board who may bo authorized to issne the license, conditioned that ho will not violate any of the provisions of this act, and that he will pay all damages, fines and penalties and forfeit- ures which may be adjudged against him under the provisions of this act. The board takingsuch bond may examine any person offered as secur- ity upon any such bond, under oath, and require him to subscribe and swear to his statement in regard to his pe- cuniary ability to become such secur- lty. Any bond taken pursuant to this section may be sued upon for the use of any person, or his legal represent- atives, who may bo injured by reason of the selling or giving away of any intoxicating liquor by the person so licensed, or by his agent or servant. Sec. 7. No person who is holden as the principal or surety upon any bond giyen under the provisions of the pro- ceding section, shadl be ]u-rmillel‘ to become a surety upon any other bond of like character, Sec. 16, Tho persons so licensed shall pay all damages that the commu nity or individuals may sustain in con- sequence of such traftio; he shall sup- port all paupers, widows and orphans, and the expenses of all civil and crim- inal prosecutions growing out of, or justly attributed to, his trafiic in in- toxicating drinks; said damages and expenses to be recovered in any court of compotent jurisdiction by any civil action on the bond named and re- quired in section 6 of this act, a copy of which, proorly authenticated, shail be tuken in evidence in any court of justice in this state; and it shall be the duty ot the rrnpel’clurk to deliver, on demand, such copy to any person who may claim to be” injured by such traflic, Sec. 19, All suits for damages and expenses arising under this sct may be commenced and prosecutod before a justice of the peace, whero the dam- ages claimed do not exceed the juris- diction of said justice, although the penalty in the bond may exceed that amount, and the judgment shall be for the damages proven. Few persons will dare to assume the extra hazardous risk of becoming bondsman for any dealer in malt or spirituous liquors under such a law. As a consequenco the prudent and most respectable dealers will go out of business, while the irresponsible keep- ers of low ‘dives and doggerics will defy the law and run the risk of an oceasional arrest and fine, The first step toward enforcing the new licenso law in Omaba will have to be taken by our city council. An ordinance couformingto the provisions of the Blocumb law will have to be passed. Until that is done no license can be granted, and every dealer in liguors will be liable to prosecution for selling without license under the new law, Even after the council has passed the ordinance no license can be ob- notice for at least two weeks that ap- Should there be objections to any application further delay will neces | into effect on the s no license issued beyond that date is|entire contiden, throngh the old law will have to g granted them, The new valid —_— OTHER LANDS THAN OURS. England is becoming alarmed over the fi colonies in edom which she k lowed her their financial and com mercial affairs. The greatest objection urged against the present system i solonies to put in that it permits the iffs which not practice protective ti only et to the injury of Great Britain, but also some of her colonies tained a more liberal policy. Two rl Gr great mistake had b insisted that a years ago E n made in al Jowing this frecdom, and recently Mr. Bader Powell recommended that meas ures be taken for the the imperial parliament of all meas- ssumption by ures relating to the ecommerco and 1o of the empire. Until the year 1845 the power of the British parlia- of her colonies was absolute; and the net produce of her duties and imports were paid into the English exchequer. This power has never been contested o of the American except in the o colonies (now the United States), and then the right of parlisment to regu- Jate commerce was distinctly allowed, but when the ohject was revenues the Tn 1845 the com- mercial policy of Great Britain was entirely changod,fand the next year the colonies resisted. colonial legislatures were empowered to adopt measures, with the sanction of the crown, for the repesl of any of the protective duties which had here- tofore been imposed by imperial acts upon foreign goods imported into said colonies—a power of which Canada hastened to avail hersclf. The repeal in 1849 1 parliament of the navigation laws re- the imperial moved another great obstruction to trade, and the venelits of this repeal With the colonies were were extended to the colonies, freedom of trado allowed freedom i regulating their local affairs, and in 1856, in the rules and regulation for her majesty’s col- onial service, the liberty of the col- onies to regulate their trade and tarifls free freo from imperial control was ex- pressly stated. There is no limitation to this liberty other than that there shall be imposed no differential dutics —80 as to ve greates privileges to foreign over British trade—or such duties as would in any way conflict with treaties entered into by the m- perial parliament with other powers. Tt could bo casily conjectured that the authority of the imperial parliament would be no longer exerted to secure a uniform commercial system through- out the the empire, except with regard to differential duties and treaty obli- gations; and in the case of Now Zea- land the rule on differential dutics has been somewhat relaxed “Her Majesty’s Ministers’ however, retained the privilege of “mak colonial governments, but this reser- vation is but of little efficacy in check- ing colonial legislation. When tho tarift of 1859 was imposed by Canada, have, ng known their wishes” to the some of the manufacturers of Sheflield desired the colonial secrotary, at that time the Duke of Newecastle, to pro- test against it, with a view to its re- peal.

Witha view to preventing a conservas liberals have opened negotiations among the ve majority the | factions of their own party to secure united support in each district to the liberal candidate who appears to have the greatest chanco of being elected. On the other hand, Prince Bismark is issuing electioneering manifectoes in the shape of telegrams and letters to conservatives all over the empire, 1d pits the socialism of the state against the ideality of the social dem- ts. Thereis nothing, however, in this political ferment to particularly interest outsiders. There seems to be nothing in it but a struggle for as- condancy. The conservatives appear to conserve nothing but the particular nee Bismarck, and the lib- crals aro highly illiberal, for the fivst plank in ther tten platform condemns every mun who cannot con- scientiously s with them. The result of the late elections for the Ba- vai unw 1 and saxon districts indicate the coming suc Reichstag.

Gambetta thinks that both the Chamber of Deputies and the senate should be actuated by a single spirit, in other words, that the party most strongly republican should be in the ascen- dancy in both houses. He is also in doubt if the principle upon which hfe scnatorships were established is not deserves, In it he senate. the mai hostile to the principles of umversal sufirage. A good many people will agree with Gambetta in this view of life senatorships in a republic. In France, a third of one house is be- yond the reach of the people. Death alone can create a vacancy iu their ranks. These life senators in France ocoupy a half-way posi- tion between the English ‘peer, transmits his seat, and the American senator, who is clected for the brief term of six years. The house of lords belongs to the past, while the American senate is un example for the future, It 18 safe to say that when the French senate is remodelled, it will tend rather to the American than to the English system, Another idea of Gambetta is to make theentrance and the examinations for the public service independent of private means, This means schools who inherits and at which young men and women pro- posing to make public service a bnsi- ness shall be educated to such duties, Incompetence would then be ruled out by examinations through which none but capable persons could pass. France has already a civil service sys- tem, which has grown into law rather than been created by law, and which practically secures a person in an offi- cial position during good behavior, and places him in the line of promo- tion, 1t is claimed that there are ninety thousand French troops now in Tunis and Algiers, and that fifty thousand more will be sent there before Octo- ber. This looks as though France meant to make her conquest of Tunis permanent and hold it as a French dependency against all comers. The departure of M, Rouher from political life is a serious loss to the French Tmperialists. So intimately connected was he with the whole Na- poleonic regime that he used to be called the ‘“‘vice emperor.” But in July, 1869, he had to give way to Em- ile Ollivier, and was made president of the senate. In his first speech be- fore this body he gave in one sen- tence the key to his political career. *“Political science,” said he, ‘‘consists in adopting proper changes in govern- ment when public opinion presents the opportunity,” After Sedan he fled to England, but the next year ho returned to France, and has over siuce been the leader of the Bonapartists, Iu this, at least, | Ty [ - i 1f the land in Treland were equita iy divided among the population there would not be enongh of it fit ‘f‘.n tillage to support the population industry., Putting 500,000, there arc 170 persons to the square mile, While by agricultural the population at other countries, with greatly diversi fied industries, have more dense pop- ulations, the general is only 70 | square mile, average in to the circum- Europe persons Under these it would seem to be the part sdom to assist The necessity of expa triation may be a hard one, but it is a necessity Trels for the Trish, and stimulate emigration.
