those are noble fellows those demo

in .their State has been republican c?er
since the republican party oame into ex

and commercial importance as she does
already! in attractiveness as a place of

to note the condition of republican poli
tics in the district in which Knoxville
is situated. It is characteristically mean.
According to a correspondent of the
Cincinnati Enquirer, Mr. Robert L.
1 ay lor, was to have been the democratic
candidate for Governor of the State and
he would have been elected by a large
majority. Mr. A. A. Taylor, his
brother, the best republican in the
district, was to have been the candidate
for Congress.' But the republican man
agers desired to sill, Off both tne lay
tors, and so Jthey-nominated A. A. Tay
lor for (iovernor to prevent bis pomma
tion for Congress, knowing that Robert
L Taylor would refuse to run for Gov
ernor against his brother. The nomi
nation was made of course , in order
to secure the selection of worse
men than the Tavlors for the two
tickets.
Thxri will hardly be an adjournment
of Congress by the 15th inst. as has been
expected. The President does not pro
pose to sign bills hurriedly and with
out examination as republican exeou
tives have done heretofore. He intends
to look into eachbiU and see that it is
a proper measure before he affixes his
signature thereto. This is his business
like way of doing things and this is the
way of which the people approve Con

President to satisfy himself in the in

Ma. Thomas Powsb O'Cohsob, M P.,
cables the New York Star from; London
that the Eastern question is again be
ginning to attract the attention of di
plomatists. Russia, Turkey and Bul
garia are engaged in a diplomatic strug
gle involving important consequcnees to
the peace of Europe., The perplexing
indorsement by Russia of Turkey's demand-
for the cessation of the collection
of frontier revenue imports was instant
ly understood by Prince Alexander. He
has adroitly shifted his ground, and in
stead of defying the Porte, has raised
other questions, urging the Sultan to

and clouded sense of propriety are
getting many shocks for the better in
these democratio times, of straightfor
ward honesty.
iCuTAlx democratio members of tho
Richmond, Va., city oouncil who were
seduced into joining what was speciously
set forth as a reform j movement have
bolted from a caucus of reform memSers
of the oity council so-called finding
that they have been deceived woefully
The report is that these members before
leaving declared that the nominations
made by the caucus and all of thepclicy
of the caucus had been directed, they
believed, by Mr. John S. Wise and
other republicans. They said they had
no idea when they were elected that tho
new party was to be run as a republican
party machine and expressed very de
cided opposition to being made cat's
paws in Buoh a way. The loss sustained
by the so-oalled reformers left them
with but twenty-two members of the
caucus, three less than a majority of the
whole oouncil This number will uot
be sufficient 4o elect the offioers. It is
believed that the men who left the
oauous will act with the democrats,
and if tney do tnis, it will give
that party control of the council.
Our Richmond friends have met the
oommon fate of those who stray away
from a party with well defined principles

When once one drifts from straight

The democratic party has principles that
are known of all men. These principles
are sound. -They are so recognised by
all intelligent people. ; lhey are found
ed on the desire for the greatest good to
the greatest number, which should be
the ruling wish in a republic. When,
therefore, a man leaves this party for
one of whieh he knows little or noth
ing, he runs a great risk; he may even
be rushing headlong into destruction.
Aseivilui has been handsomely en
tertaining this week a large excursion
party of business men from Knoxville,
.Tenn. We are glad to sec the bonds
joining these two cities being cemented
licensed beverages sold in all inns, tav
ems, ordinaries and "bar-rooms through
out the State and of which beers, wines
wuisxies and oranaies were tne usua,
common drinks.
In the contemporaneous legislation
and adjudication it will also be found
we think, upon examination, that the
acts snd decisions upon those acts are
in full agreement with the public ex
pression of the period. A citation or
two will be sufficient to illustrate this
point. In the case of the State vs. Pack
er, eu JM. V. iteports, tne supreme
court decides that an indictment for sell
ing intoxicating liquors is sufficient
without specifying the particular kind
of liquor. In this decision the term in
toxicating liquors stands for beer and
wine as well as whisky and brandy, for
they are all intoxicating liquors.
We will take the occasion to remark
as germane to the subject, that the in
dictment would have been more defi
nite -more in acoord with the facts, if
the term spirituous liquors had been
used in place of intoxicating liquors,
and for the reason that the term spir it
uoua liquors stands lor tne thing as wel
as its. quality or power while the term
intoxicating liquoralexpresses the quality
or power of the ; thing, only. All
spirituous liquors are intoxicating; but
all intoxicating liquors are not spirit
uous that is they are not alcoholic
alcohol is the type. M
In the ease of Miller vs. Commis
sioners of Buncombe County, 89 N. C.
Reports, the supreme court in deciding
the power of county commissioners over
license use the term ' spirituous liquors
in its comprehensive sense as embracing
all liquors usually sold under
lieense, and in connection there
with refer toa barroom a place well
known to contain beers and wines .as
well as whiskies and brandies. Ia the
act (liws N. C, session 1881)to prohibit
the selling or giv'ng of any intoxicated
liquors to the inmates of the penal and
charitable institutions of the 8tate, ex
cept for medical purposes and upon
the prescription of a physician, the
term intoxicating liquors is used in its
comprehensive sense for, beer and wine
are not mentioned, and yet, no.ooe will
pretend that it was not the aim and in
tcnljof the law to protect to the fullest ex
tent, the defenseless beings in our asy
lums, hospitals and prisons from those
who might drug them with beer or
wine. Other oases strengthening this
pofitw fwld beMited, pfJthfjfcefo.
ing are deemed sufficient i to establish
the point that the term spirituous
iquors, or if you will a! less definite
term even, vis intoxicating liquors.
does stand in the jurisprudence of the
Sute for bee and wine as ; well as the
strorger intoxicants sold; under a re
tailer s license.
In considering the second question,
Does the emission of the 'words vinoun
and malt liquors in the local option law
in me ijoae, destroy we aim ana intent
of the law1 ss oricmally enacted, we
remark that, though the term gpiritnous
liquors c id not stand for beer and wino
in the license law as adjudicated, yet
me aim ana intent oi toe iocsi option
law, as originally formulated in the
words "spirituous, vinous and malt
liquors'," in the light of ;the rule that
the legislative intent governs the con-;
true tion, does prohibit the sale of beer
and wme as well as whisky and brandy.
The aim and intent of the law is clear;
It is to grant license or withhold it, by
an expression of the popular will of the
locality. Local option, practically con
sidered, ia the right of the peo
ple of any given locality to determine
by vote whether they will or will
not have license.
The very title of the law specially in
dicates its character and intent, a choice
between two things, viz :' license or no
license. Not in part but in whole.
Whatever license means and carries into
effect, local option denies and prohibits.
In a word, the local option law is the
full rounded negative to the full round
ed license law, and this ; is the whole
matter in a nut shell. Any other view
is to make of the law, in the words of
Solon, the great Athenian sage and law
giver, a web wherein 'the weak are
caught and the strong break through
The following decisions of the u
preme oourt or tne United Btates upon
the aim and intent of laws passed by
the legislature are submitted, and as
we think they are conclusive upon the
subject: '
1st. Where the intention of the leg
islature in enacting a law cap be dis
cerned from the language used it should
prevail. Supreme court U. 8. Brown
vs. Barry, 3 Dall, and others.
2nd. The meaning of the legislature
in a statute may be extended beyond
the precise words used in the law from
the reason or motive upon which the
legislature proceeds from the end in
view or the purpose designed. Su

3d. A statute is to be construed : so
as to carry out with reason and decision
the intent of the legislature, though
such construction may seem contrary to
the letter of the Btatute. W. Dist.
court N. C, 1881, United States vs.
Buchanan, 9 Fed. Repr. 689, and 4
Hughes, 487.
A word! personal. As a layman, I
am critically conscious that the forego
ing considerations could be largely aug
mented in their clearness; and force by
one learned in the decisions of the higher
courts snd skilled in the tactics of legal
battle. They are not offered from a
desire to pose as an expounder of what
is considered by some a difficult judicial
problem, but in answer to the. demands
of a friendship that has urged it. Such
as they are, they have forced me to the
conclusion that the lccil option law of
the State formulated in accord with
legal and scientific truth, must Btand in
its full aim and intent, and I hereby re
affirm my conviction that there is no
error. Jamxs H. Enhiss.

Simply because certain men desirt to
go to Congress should weigh very little
with the people and the conventions.'
The better plan is for the people to seek
the candidate. When this is done it is
positive proof the candidate has merits
far above those of the office-seeker and
demagogue, who frequently force their,
nomination by brazen importunities.
There was a communication in the Nsws
amp Obsbrvsb. a few weeks ago, suggest
ing the name of M. T. Leach, Esq , as
a proper; oan did ate of the Democratic
party for Representative in Congress
from this, the 4th district, whioh has
caused a widespread discussion and
many expressions of approbation of the
sentiments therein.
Many voters of the party would like
to see Mr. Leach nominated. He is a
first-class business man,; abreast of the
age iu every particular and would,
add.conimercial strength to North Car
olina's almost solid professional repre
sentation in Congress. Both Senators,
Skinner, Cox, Reid, Bennett, Cowles;
Johnston, all the Representatives .ex
cept Green, and even the ne&ro O'Hara,
are lawyers. Give us Leach for Con
gross He has merit. He is not aQ
office-seeker Or demagogue, doe? not
play on the prejudices of the people to
benefit himself. The office seeks the
man. Clark for judge, ' Galloway for
solicitor. Leach for Congress. -Two
good offices for the lawyers, one for
the commercial interests of the distriot.
Mr. Leach is ndt a professional speaker,
but he knows how and when to talk and
without making any ' spread-eagle
speeches on paper to be printed in the
Congressional Record and circulated
among the people for electioneering
purposes, his words would be fitly
spoken, most effective and his work for
the benefit of the people he represented.
He would soon be known in Congress
as the working member from North
Carolina and the people Of the district
would see .and feel the; effects of bis
labors ia something more substantial
than pamphlet speeches, worthless docu-
menu, commission seea - tn win no
sprout, and a few minor appointments
to office. He has strength. Could poll
every vote of the party and more. Pro
fessional men and laboring men could
all gve him a hearty, cordial support.
He is the man to win. And when vic
tory is ours we would haye a represent"
stive who would make the fruits of
victory valuable indeed. Let us,; then,
have Leach for Congress. Two.
