I ; - WASHINGTON LETTER. Before the city fathers on Friday n'ght last were two sets of -petitioners to- wit: five for license to sell liquor. and one to hang aFisk campaign flag across a street at a suitable -height above the road. " Voted to give permission to stl liquor,- and fill our streets with drunken men to insult'and endange our wives and children and to mur der at our doors. Refused to allow the flag, for fear it might might frighten a horse, and lay the city liable for damages. Yeri ly how much better is a horse than our wives and children. We learn that JVIessrs Odell, Pr'ce, and Scott voted i- for the flag, and that Judge Schenck most reluctant. ly opposed it solely on legal grounds. All right gentleman. Out of res pect for the nerves of some backwoods horse cr jackass, we submis ively waive our wish to wave the flag. But when you say that the lawcom- pellsyou to authorize saloons to en danger, for every hour of every day in the year, the every interest of the whole public, our blood boils to get at that unholy, unconstitutional law. Tne United States Sumpreme Court, 101 TJ. S. Reports, page 816, has de eided that "no legislature can bar sain away the public health" or the public morals. The people them selves cannot do it. much less their servants. Government is organized with a view to their pre ervatin and cannot divest itself of the power to provide for them." Government was established to prohibit evils and crime-breeding not to authorize them. How longOh Lord! , Here comes a quaint suggestion, through an Exchange : The Indians will not be quieted : they continue to go out upon the war path and massa ere indiscriminately, regardless of the pfTnrhq to prohibit them. Now, the t A . - : ' - . su o-gestion is this': As "Prohibition ilnn'h nrohibit" why not license? Charge Sitting Bull a reasonable price, and give the sanction of gov ernment to his killing the women and children and dest eying the prop erty. The money might be used to educate the Indian chi aren. r roni- bition only prevents in part -why not license. North Carolina Presby terian. . Democratic Approval. There Is much to admire in these Bersekirs of reform. They are heroic in their determination and grand when this determination is to sacri fice the Republican party to its prin ciples. This process they graphical ly describe as "smashing it." Let it smash lSf. Louis Republic (Dem). And still the News and Observer "hides its face from us." (Prom Our Eegular Correspondent.) , VYAsuixeTON, June 15th 1883. since i last .wrote you. Congress has been discussing such questions as Gevernmen t bond buyin , the tariff, the Fisheries treaty, silver, and mat ters local interest, such as relate to the District of Columbia, the lat ter having been much neglected o late on account of the pending tariff. bill. The President has been quietly persuing his daily routine business. has been enjoying hii 'renomination of cou se, and has had his sympa thies excited by the cases of criminals in different parts of the country, number of whom are to be released through hi pardon. The Democratic Congressmen who attended the St Louis National Con vention had scarcely settled them selves in their seats again when the Republican members left for their Convention jn Chicago. All is not well with Congress during Presiden tial campaigns. Legislation suffers because of the absence of members and hose wto remain cannot debate any question without interlarding it with campaign talk, entirely irrele vant to the subject. On Msnday, . while the District PoliGe bill was under consideration, Representative Stru'ble, of Iowa iir raigned the majority in Congress for giving no Attention to the demands for temperance legislation, declaring that it was prohibition or substantial restriction of the sale f Iquor in the District of Columbia tnat was need ed more than increased police or po lice facilities! The Committee to which the tem perance bills had been referred was attacked by Mr. Dingley for its re missness m not having reported back tnese measures. He said the arrests for drunkenness in the State of Maine were not more than one tenth the number of such arrests in the Dis trict. T :-; j ,y ' - The District Committee was de fended by Mr.' Rowe 1, one of its members, who said it had had all thej work it could do, and that it had boen deprived by the tariff bill of five days to which it was justlyvjen titled to for the disposal of its business. Mr. Campbell, the chairman of tne Alco holic Liquor Traffic Committee, said his bills wou'rl have been acted upon bu t for the failure to get a qnorum of his committee.! ; In the question ; of prohibition, he sa d his committee was awaiting the action of the Senate committee. , ! Secretary ; Whitney, of the Navy, wilt neither affirm nor deny the rum ored report ofj his retirement from the Cabinet -if jMr.' Cleveland is re elected in November. He does deny however, that he is in ill health, and states that had he any intention of leaving the Cabinet he, would consid er it his duty to inform 'the President before any one else. " - That the Secretary has been some what dissatisfied of late is an open secret, it having been caused parfly by the quarrel between the line and staff which shattered the unity of the Navy to an extent. Several other minor matters,! such as the slownes with which the manufacture of the guns tor the uew Navy has been car ried on, have tended to increase his annoyance, and in conversation he has not hesitated to express his opin ion on the subject with great free dom. " ' .- ' . ' ' ; ! One of the newest sights . of the Capital isihe Gospel Wagon. It is a church on wheels, and is one of the agencies used by the workers of the Union Mission ,; Every Sunday it passes irom one point to anotmr where preaching services are held, and nearly every evening . it carries Christian workers on their evangel istic trips Different churches in he city are interested in the work of thef Mission, - and their - representa tives take part in the msetings and assist in the missionary efforts that are being made. I Representatives of a number of the Churches have sjaia The purpose is to reach the class of people who do not so to church ana nave no cnurcn connections The Church is this way brought to them. The chief field of operation for the wagon is the outskirts of the city. It is 20 feet long by, 7 feet wide and 6 and a half feet high. Th e wheels are low and of the same size so tLat thebox can turn on them, and all of the running gear is nnusnally large and strong, having been made to order just for the purpose. When on the way to meeting, the wagon drawn by tour -horses, ? looks like new kind of excursion vehicle. When it stops for a meeting it is quickly transformed into a comfortable jittle pulpit and choip platform, ; with the organist ? ready to play, and the leaders and singers standing in front. VI.
