Albbst 6. Portek goes a minister to Italy in place of an "offensive partisan." By the aid of six Democrats the Republicans succeeded in passing a bill raising the saloon license from S100 to $250 per year. Our city ouncil should at once change the ordinance in keeping with the improvement made by the new law. One of the tirt removals made by President Harrison was the postmasttr of Aususta, Maine, who was awarded by Cleveland with an office for originating a disgraceful family scandal concerning James G. Blaine in the campaign of 1884. General Harrison is making a splendid start. um m Prusidxnt Harrison has nominated N. S. Chambers, of Vincennes, for District Attorney. It is his province to deal with the election indictments recently manufactured by the U. S. grand jury. He will doubtless treat them with the saraerespect that spring poetry receives in a newspaper office consign them to the waste-basket. The Telephone publishes this morning a very brief synopsis of the new election law. To print the act complete would require not less than two pages, in addition to an interpreter to accompany each copy of the japer. There are a great many good features, but on the whole the probabilities are that its workings are so complex that such a law will not be found practical. If, however, the law prevents corruption in any degree,! t will be a blessing from which the Republican partv bus nothing to fear.

The Cincinnati Com mere it I -Gazette reads a righteous lesson to the chronic growler that are barking at Mr. Cleveland's heels, now that he ih shorn of official power, saying: "it is a sue! enough sight to see the retiring President beset by a lot of Ins old Democratic friends, barkng at him like a pack of dogs, now that he is in a position neither to reward nur punish. Why did they not as sert themselves in the proper season, and pi event his re-nomination and defeat? Piling epithets upon the poor man at this time only humiliates him and disgraces Democrats who were his Imnds so Ions; as he

had favors to bestow, and who de

sert him opon his ioss of power.

Indianapolis Jowrvttli ult is pr citable that Jill the bill parsed by the legislature over the Governors veto will fall to the ground through failure to comply with a provision of the Con&ututinn. Section 25, Article 4, says:. A majority oi all the meuibeis elected to each ione siiall beiieeesaary to pass every bill, ami ail bills, so pas.ed shall be signed iy the piesiding olHeers of the respective houses. None of the vetoed bids, wh.m passed over the Governor's veto, were signed by the presiding officers of the respective houses. They were simply certified by the Clerk of the House and Secretary of the Senate, and in this form deposited with the Secretary of Mate, instead of going through the hands of the Governor, as the law requires. These ueteeis are probably fatal to all the vetoed measures. One of the laws passed by the State legislature requires aiJ executions of criminals to be carried out in the State Prisons. The hanging must take place before sunrise, not less than one hundred days after conviction. The law not to apply to criminals now under sentence of death in the State. After sentence is passed the criminal shall be confined in the State Prison until the date of hi execution, and ail persons shall be denied access to him except lawyers and physicians necessary in Settling his business and earing foT his health, and relatives and spiritual advisers. The execution shall be private, the only persons allowed to be present being the Warden, assistant,Pi ison Directors, two physicians, spiritual advisers, chaplain of the prison and not more than ten relatives of the condemned whom he may request shall be admitted.

According to a new State law whenever an applicant for or remonstrant against the g muting of a liquor license appeals to the circuit court a bond most be given for the costs within ten days after the ap peal.

The name of this line has become familiar in every part of the country. Since its establishment thousands of people have been carried safely and comfortably, and its record is written in the experience of travelers representing every State in the Unio j. The uBee-line" is a link in the great Vanderbuilt system of railroads which reach every important city in the East and West, and is the only line with a depot in the city cf New York It is the routfe of the famous 2s ew York "Limited," the fastest train in the world. No other line in America can offer the facilities and advantages to the business man for travel equal to that offered by the popular "Hee-line." Connecting as it does with the New York Central road, it lands the busi-

I ness man in the beart of New York I city, thus saving him the annoyance I of a ferry transfer and manv hoars' time, which is .uite valuable to the ' average man of to-day, as "time is monev."
