The things vre do at Christmas aro touched with a certain grain of extrav¬ agance, as beautiful in some of its as¬ pect* as the extravagance of nature in .nine. It the children's carnival, the midsummer of charity to tho poor, the urn ieg-tlde of good-will to men; tho time of the year when heaven opens, and ang«-!s come down toning to sailors on the ocean, to old-country folks in the long-reaches of now colonies, to people lu hospital», poor-houses, in mansions, and uthe huts whore poor men He:" the time when the attnos* phoro is just right for clear-burning fires, and it would be something of a shamo for tho wind to send the smoko down any chimney as it does a week before or after; when there is a goodly smell abroad, as if the frankincense the wise men brought on a day long ago, to tempor the taint of a stable, hud got into this whole world of ours, as a trailing oloud of tho odors of spiced bread; when the poorest platters and mugs take a touch of tine recklessness by reason of the thoughtfulnoss of those who havo bread enough and to spare : when the Christmas tree grows all radiant and fruitful, as no other tree which blooms through tho year: for it bears at least twelvo mnunors of fruit, and the leaves of the tree aro for the healing of the nations. I would not therofore insult Christ¬ mas by underdoing it. The man who then does most for his fellow men, ac¬ cording to his means, does best. We can give the tramp who comes to our back door, a royal cup of coffee Christmas morning.' with a good grace, though we have to hoo that ho does not run away with tho spoon. They aro wide pagos thoangol opens in the book of life at Christ in:is und when we do our best, wo cannot do it quicker than ho can write it down. Still I think it is not hard to soe how wo may sparo, oven at Chrlsttnus-tide, and yet do more and better than if wo spend, if a man spends tho monoy he ought to savo to pay his debts, when ho knows very well lie can only pay his debts by saving, ho may give what he buys, right and loft with au open hand, aud it wil bo to his own shamo. I havo never digested ono of tho best suppers I over sat down to In my life, though It. is years oinco l ate it. because, us it came out after, my host owed for it at tho store, and tho dobt was never paid. I don't want any more of those suppers. There aro millions of dol¬ lars spent every Christmas, of other men's monoy. Not a penny ought to bo laid out in gifts ono can woll let alone. Men who do that get drunk on thoir own generosity, though they never tusto of wino ; and, if they aro men of conscience, tho headache and heart* ache of getting sober will bo nono tho less for their motive in getting drunk. Wo should never spend when wo. ought to sparo, especially if wo have" familios. Ono of tho snddost things I havo struck in my lifo has boon tho sight of families left destitute, through a certain easy-going goneroslty in tho man out of whoso life thoy sprang, who would havo ovorything of tho best trusting to his luck- to come out all right; who would spuro nothing at Christmas-timo, or any other timo, so that ho might havo things hand¬ some, whilo ho had not laid up a dollar for a rainy day or for that instant peril of death whieb dogs all our footsteps between tho cradle aud tho grave. Saving is so slow to such men and so hard ! 1 should not take muoh stock in that man who would not closo instantly with tho proposal of a decent com¬ petence for his wifo and children, In exchange for the open gates of heaven, and the an,"els waiting with a crown, if he had tho chauce. , "Wo brought nothing into this world, und it is certain wo can earry nothing out," the sad old Hebrew cries. me when I go away, 1 carry the account of what I havo done to fend for those I leave behind ire, and save them from tho bittor pangs of poverty, by my forethought, self denial, and clear grit, from tho day when I took a maid from her mother, and said, "Trust mo to tuke care of you, whatever comes, to bo a house-bond to you und t ho children God may g! us yes ovon by pushing back Curlb mas, if wo have to do it, and letting tho bairns rise to find ompty stockings these hard times. Better em¬ pty stockings to-day than tho bittor bare winter of poverty, if I should bo taken from them. I can easily imagine how a man would be glad to exchange his golden harp and crown, if ho could, for good six oer cent stock if ho could find himself in heaven.supposing a man could go there, when, though his own carelessness, he bus left a wife and family of littloones without a pen¬ ny in the world. Robert Colly eh. VIRGINIA'S NEW SENATOR. The Investigating Committee Have Exonerated Martin lVoin the Charge of Hrtbery.A Sketch of the Man Who Defeated Fit/.hugh Lee. Tho Senatorial investigating com¬ mittee in tho Virginia Legislature reported in substance that no unusual methods wore used to olect members of tho Legislature last fall, and that no frunduleut or Improper means were used to nominate candidates for United States Senator before tho Democratic caucus. Tho report which, wassignod by tho whole counnitteo, was unani¬ mously adopted. Mr. Thomas S. Mar¬ tin, tho nomineo of tho caucus, was duly elected to serve tho long tonn und Gen. Eppa Hunton was elected for tho short term. Mr. Thomas S. Martin, who defeated the brilliantuud phenomenally populur Fit/. Leo for tho United States Son- aturship, is ono of tho plainest and most unussumiug men in Virginiu politics. A year ago the loaders would havo luughed ut tho ideu of Martin's beating Fitzhugh Loo for this im¬ portant position. Tho fact is, though, tho latter relied for succcos upon his illustrious name and great popularity. Martin, on the other hand, bogan tho work of building up ut) organisation to accomplish his object, with tho rosutt of presenting tho must perfect organi¬ zation over known in tho South. To tho fact that Martin overthrow tho idol of Virginians is duo tho inves¬ tigation which was sot on foot Friday by tho Legislature. Had Leo been nominal" o, or hud Martin dofoated another opponent, there would not have boon a voice raised against the methods which it is alleged wore re¬ sorted to in securing the Albemarle mini's nomination. Mr. Martin was born in Scottsvilie, in Albomarlo County, Va. Ho is a graduato of t'.-.o University of Virginia, at which institution ho studied law and obtained his degree. Since thon he has pursued tho prnctice of law, and is at present tho counsol (or the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad. Mr Mar/in is 40 years old and in personal appeaninnc is a lino looking hum. He if< about medium height ,t),d woighs probably loo pounds. Tho Senator- oloct is a bachelor and is ono of tho most modest of men. In tho presonno of ladies ho is said to be nearly as diUldont as a school hoy. In his deal¬ ings, with men, howover, ho. has shown himself to be a far-sighted, practical man of affairs, and as a politican there are few in the State who aro shrowdor t han Mr. Margin, Ho is worth about $100,000, made mostly fpPlf) biß law practice. Ho has novor yot hold apy imb)jp office. During the negotiations of settling the State debt, two years ago, Mr. Martin represented the State boforo the Olcott committee, and made, no charge for his sorvlcos. He has been on the Demporatlo executivecommltteo for t he. past, ten \ ears, having boon a xly during the mom- i: of ¦.'¦:!, in u hieb t ho Minor 0 chlor managor. he death of Senator Johi mi tho summer of 1892 Martin >/ecamo a candidate for tho Sonator- shtp. and han worke-u with untiring etlort to'aceomplish tho victory ho hau gained. Perhaps no political aspirant In Virginia ever had abettor organiza¬ tion, or v-.is Hurrounded with shrowder leaders Mum those who aided tho Sen- utoi-elect In his campaign. In this connection a littlo incident which ocoUfed in tho Senatorial campaign deserves mention. Mr. Martin several years ago loaned a cattle deaior in Seott^vlTle a small sum of monoy with which to aid him in making a ship¬ ment. During tho Senatorial fight Mr. Martin received a letter from the ox-cattle doaler, who now resides in New York and is worth a mill lot, stating that ho would aid him in am way he could in his Senatorial arab! tionH. Of course Mr. Martin has re¬ ceived hundreds of letters and tele¬ grams of congratulation. Among these was one from a young lady whom he hud mot at his brother's wedding. Tho modest bachelor at onco ordered two dozen American beauty roses and had them expressed to her. ONE HUNDRED PER CENT. AU < 'lie.se-, of Property Blust bo Taxed at Full Value. Tho State tax department Is deter¬ mined to push tho matter of assess¬ ment of all kinds of property and col¬ lection of taxes to tho fullest extent the coming year. This Is the ydai for the assossmcnt of real estate, aud the Comptroller Is starting early to havo tho proporty of tho people of tho State nlucod upon tho books at its full value. The following circular bearing upon -the subject has boon issuod by tho Comptroller General, and speaks for itself. It is directed to the various county auditors: Dear Sik : Ho turns for taxation from tho 1st January, 1804, to tho 20 the February must embrace both real and personal property. Auditors cannot bo too carotul in taking these returns. Returns of every species of taxable property should bo secured, and in every case where tho auditor or his as¬ sistant has reasons to suspect or bei iovo that thoro is any desire or purpose on the part of the taxpayer or his agout ovado a full return of all proporty, ho should by proper questions und in¬ vestigations bring out all tho facts and secure a full, complote and just return of all taxable property as required by law to bo made. Great care should bo oxercised in tho selection and appointment of the town¬ ship board of assossors. None but clear, fair, impartial men of good sound businoss judgment and information should bo appointed members of those boards. If these boards will exercise discretion and take pains in getting at and placing on returns every speoios of taxable property, and justly equulize, as botween individual taxpayers in thoir respective townships or tax dis¬ tricts ; and tho county bonrds of equali¬ zation, composed of tho ehairmen of the township boards, will exercise tho same discretion, care and judgment as between townships, and in all cases of appeal, the crying ovil of gross inequ¬ alities of assessments will disappear and no longor bo heard. Gross inequ¬ alities of assessments do now oxist. and [¦.the remedy is largely in tho hands of auditors in tho discharge of their duties and in these boards appointed by the auditors to valuo and equalize assessments. Thcro is no law for assessing and equalizing taxablu property upon a busis of 06 2-3 per cent., or any other basis than its t% true valuo in monoy." placed upon the taxbooKs ax tho value in money." Land» worth «1.00, j acVntt sin.no. $mf*. -^ mi^ i.« uuiA-julu av .mu Lime, HO more auu ho loss. Bank stock worth $20.00 above tho par valuo of $100 should bo as¬ sessed at $120 per share, and others in proportion. Bank stock worth less than par value should be assessed at its valuo, and no more. Corporations other than banks, stock of which is non-taxable, must havo a taxable in¬ terest equal to the real or market valuo valuo of its stock, and this market value of stock will furnish a fair basis for assessment of tho taxable interest of such corporations as it may havo in machinory, material, etc. Tho pro¬ ductive powers of taxablo proporty, real, personal or possessory, is an im¬ portant factor in fixing tho " truo money values" for taxation. Lands producing one bale of cotton or twen¬ ty-five bushels of corn and oats por acre are worth more than those pro¬ ducing ono-hulf these amounts. So with other classes of taxable property. Values are influenced by incomes de¬ rived from such property. Tho great¬ er percentage of the burden of taxa¬ tion rest s now too heavily upon the less productive properties of tho State, and should bo remedied. Personal friendships, neighborly in¬ tercourse and primary oleclion should not intluonce auditors nor boards in thoso matters of assessments, but they should be actuated by tho broad prin¬ ciple of absolute justieo to all taxpay¬ ers and tho full, truo value in monoy placed upon each aud every taxable interest, class and character of prop¬ erty In the State. If tho boards of assessors do their work in a haphazard way, and boards of equalization do not correct theso gross inequalities, we shall insist upon auditors proceeding in each case, as is required by Section '_'.'10, etc., Gen¬ eral Statutes, us construed by tho Legislature in 181)2. after tho construc¬ tion by tho courts of this und othor gormuno sections. Your especial attention is called to tho fact that millions of dollars in credits, such as bonds, mortgages, notes, accounts, cash, etc., etc., now escape partially or wholly from their just share of taxation. Let us havo overy dollar of taxable property in tho State at its true value in money upon thq tax books, and the levy as now made can bo reduced by something like one-half. Respectfully. W. II.

Mr. Strait in speaking of the resolution said that early last spring a vacancy occurred in tho Academy from his district. He wrote tho gecrofury of |aio Navy re¬ garding it, but reooivod no reply. When Congress mot in August ho called at the navy department on tho matter, but found tho Secretary away. Ho wrote again in Septem bur. but received no answer to his communication.

V Ar... and the Motion ibr ll.iiit us t^orpue Im >>i nlCd VvABKLNGTON. B3C 18..The South I Carolina dispensary liquor Jaw was tiio I of a decision in the (Jolted 1 . SuproineCourt to-day, delivered by Chief JuHtieo Fuller. The facts in the case, briefly, were these : Fvfort- tho law went into effect, a barrel of whiskey had been sent Into the Slat« of South Carolina by a citizen ol North < larollna, over tbo Booth Carolina rail¬ way, a concoro operated by a receiver appointed by the United St at- » Court. Because of insulllclent address, tb<S railroad officials could not deliver the barrel to the consignee, and it was stored in the railroad station, pend¬ ing investigation by the officials to < It term ne the identity of the consignee. While thus stored, the barrel was seiz¬ ed by C. B. Swan, a Stato constable, appointed to enforce the law. He showed no warrant for tho seizure of the liquor, other than his badge of office, and stated that he acted with¬ out instructions from any judiciul of- llcor. Tho receiver of tho railroad had Constable Swan brought beforo the United States Circuit Court to show cause why ho should not be punished for contempt of court in seizing the liquor. Upon tho hoaring of tho case, Swan was adjudged to be in contempt, and was committed to tho custody of tho United States marshal. The At¬ torney Gonerul of the State then brought the case to the United States Supreme Court on a motion for Swan's relcaso upou a writ of habeas corpus, contending that tho Circuit Court had no jurisdiction in tho matter to enter any ordor respecting tho action of tho constable. After roviowiug tho oaso at grout length, Chief Justico Fuller stated the opinion of this court to bo that tho Circuit Court did have jurisdiction of tho matter ; and, further, that because tho seizure of tho liquor us mado by Swan was not expressly authorized by tho stututo under which bo eluimod to net, he was not justified in making it. Tho motion for a writ of habeas corpus, theroforo, was denied. In tbo course of his opiuion, Chief Justice Fuller said : " It must bo remembered that this proporty was in tho custody, of the re- clever, tho officer of tho court; that it had been brought into tho State be¬ foro tho act went into operation ; that it had not been delivered because of imperfect address; that there was no concealment and no occasion for huste ; und that there was no difficulty in the way of application to tho court to hnve the goods dotuined or for ponnision to withdraw them from tho receiver's possession. Nothing can be clearer than that tho court had jurisdiction to dotermine whothor the goods wore retained in violution of tho laws of Stute ; whether tho receiver, in con¬ ducting tho business of tho rnilrond in. respect of the transportation of this barrel, was proceeding 'according to tho valid luws of tho Stato,' as provided by the second section of the act of Con¬ gress of March 3, 18S7 ; and whothor tho soizuro wu3 authorized by any law of the Stute. "Tho possession of proporty by tho judiciul department, whothor Fodoral or Stato, cannot bo arbitrarily en¬ croached upon without violating the fundamental principle, which rcquiros co-ordinate departments to rofrain from interference with tho independence of each other (in ro. Tylor. 149 U.S., 104); and tho position that a petty officer can take property from tho possession of u. court, without permission and without warrant, " upon his n\v«i *nOtlo»i and without instructions from any other person,'' as petitioner admits ho did, a^*T7. r:.-:^<yiutv imposed upon Mir» l»y.. w,>»g«-t.....tl., V , a.. . ' that the courjt&_ -;-. J ,.»V _:_fxxrtta-_ does so, that its judgment may "Bo treated with contemptuous defiance, is utterly inadmissible In anv community nssuming'to bo governed by law?" The Columbia Register says that tho newspaper reporters (locked to the Hx- outlvo Mansion to interview. Governor Tillman on tho decision of the United States Supremo Court in the Swan caso. Ho was not in the least excited, but said, in answer to a multitude of inquiries . Prejudice don't even stop at Wash¬ ington'. Before I say anything I want to see what possible excuse they call have for such a stretch of judicial au¬ thority." Tho Governor was then asked for an expression on the simple fuet that the decision was against the State. He answered, and there was something of a prediction in what ho had to say : " Well, I can say that it only intensi¬ fies the demand that must arise for the curtailment of tho powers of the Föd¬ eral Court, or wo will have no liberty at all. It further shows that the Fed- oral Supreme Court is not above partisan decisions when aimed at tho He form movement. If we cannot arrest contraband liquor in the hands of a receiver wo cannot arrest a mur¬ derer on a train run by a receiver, for the State law is paralyzed by every such decision as this. Swan had disobeyed no ordor of tho court. Ho was simply guilty of a trespass. I Imagine my message had more to do with it than the law. I can stand it, however." This was all the Governor would say, but it was brief and breezy, thoroughly characteristic of the man who is fight¬ ing what ho boliovos is tho infringe¬ ment of States' rights by tho Föderal Courts. This decision of tho courts will put Swan In jail to servo tho sontonoo passod upon him by Judge Simonton. -.^m*B> i -.

Special to the Atlant \ < on4titutiou. WASHINGTON, D. 04, December 17.. Although wo are counted a fairly solwr people in tho hurly-burly of nations, tho figures of the iuternal revenue commission for tho last fiscal year ou tho amount of whiskey and Beer wo drink and tbo number of cigars and cigarettes wo make, and the quantity of tobacco wo chow are simply umu/.- ing. They make the head reel. The preacher who peruses them will hie to the pulpit to toll his congregation that we uro a nation of drunkards, ttupoued with drink half of tho year and drugged with tobacco the other half: that each year wo recklessly squander upon those Inventions of Beelzebub three times as much money as is re¬ quired to keep this government in ope¬ ration and more than is represented by the circulating medium of the. United States. And when tho preacher does this ho will be throwing an armful of facts at his congregation. We cousumed last year, accord lug to this report of Commissioner Miller, and it tells tho story as detailed in hard cash over the countor of the in¬ ternal revenue oftlco, 87,000,000 gallons of whiskey, brandy and distilled spirits, or in other work we drank 0,000.000,000 glasses of whiskey for which we paid ovor tho bar the enor¬ mous sum of $(500.000,000. or $50,000,000 more than tho annual appropriations of Congress combined. This repre- sents a consumption of 100 glussos of whiskey each year for every man, wo¬ man and child botwoen tho rock bound Pacific and the storm tossed Atlantic, or counting only male adults, 500 glasses for each. Of boor tho figures are equally as¬ tounding. Tho consumption was 31,062,94« barrels, that is 12,785,109,200 glasses, representing an exponditure for this modo of Teutonic hilarity of $017,258,4(i0. or about $10 for each in¬ habitant. In tho neighborhood of 200 glasses are chargod up in this curcula- tion aguinst each of us as our annual allowance. If we do not averago our daily glasses with our daily bread we may bo sure our neighbors got the benefit of our abstinence. In tho matter of cigars, cigarettes, smoking tobacco and chewing tobacco wo are equally prodigal. The blue in- censo of .4,814,202,000 cigars and che¬ roots, and tho curling weraths of 3,17(5,- 093,000 cigarettes aid us in our reveries and soothe us in our work. For this luxury wo pay : for cigars and che¬ roots, $253,7i>0.000; for cigarettes, $22,332,000. This is apportioned for cigars, 83 to each inhabitant cr 41i> for each malo adult; elgurottes, 51 to each man, woman and child, or 2e0 to ench male adult. All this goes up in smoke each year, whilo people are bungoring for bread. But this does not include tho millions of bowls of tobacco that are consumed in pipes.

Tho fact is, though,tho latter relied for succcos upon hisillustrious name and great popularity.Martin, on the other hand, bogan thowork of building up ut) organisation toaccomplish his object, with tho rosuttof presenting tho must perfect organi¬zation over known in tho South. Totho fact that Martin overthrow thoidol of Virginians is duo tho inves¬tigation which was sot on foot Fridayby tho Legislature. Had Leo beennominal" o, or hud Martin dofoatedanother opponent, there would nothave boon a voice raised against themethods which it is alleged wore re¬sorted to in securing the Albemarlemini's nomination.Mr. Martin was born in Scottsvilie,in Albomarlo County, Va. Ho is agraduato of t'.-.o University of Virginia,at which institution ho studied lawand obtained his degree.

This Is the ydai forthe assossmcnt of real estate, aud theComptroller Is starting early to havotho proporty of tho people of tho Statenlucod upon tho books at its full value.The following circular bearing upon-the subject has boon issuod by thoComptroller General, and speaks foritself. It is directed to the variouscounty auditors:Dear Sik : Hoturns for taxation

from tho 1st January, 1804, to tho 20 theFebruary must embrace both real andpersonal property. Auditors cannot botoo carotul in taking these returns.Returns of every species of taxableproperty should bo secured, and inevery case where tho auditor or his as¬sistant has reasons to suspect or bei iovothat thoro is any desire or purpose onthe part of the taxpayer or his agouttö ovado a full return of all proporty,ho should by proper questions und in¬vestigations bring out all tho facts andsecure a full, complote and just returnof all taxable property as required bylaw to bo made.Great care should bo oxercised in tho

selection and appointment of the town¬ship board of assossors. None butclear, fair, impartial men of good soundbusinoss judgment and informationshould bo appointed members of thoseboards. If these boards will exercisediscretion and take pains in gettingat and placing on returns every speoiosof taxable property, and justly equulize,as botween individual taxpayers inthoir respective townships or tax dis¬tricts ; and tho county bonrds of equali¬zation, composed of tho ehairmen ofthe township boards, will exercise thosame discretion, care and judgment asbetween townships, and in all cases ofappeal, the crying ovil of gross inequ¬alities of assessments will disappearand no longor bo heard. Gross inequ¬alities of assessments do now oxist. and[¦.the remedy is largely in tho hands ofauditors in tho discharge of theirduties and in these boards appointedby the auditors to valuo and equalizeassessments.Thcro is no law for assessing and

Landsproducing one bale of cotton or twen¬ty-five bushels of corn and oats poracre are worth more than those pro¬ducing ono-hulf these amounts. Sowith other classes of taxable property.Values are influenced by incomes de¬rived from such property.

tho fact that millions of dollars incredits, such as bonds, mortgages,notes, accounts, cash, etc., etc., nowescape partially or wholly from theirjust share of taxation.

Carolina dispensary liquor Jaw was tiio Iof a decision in the (Jolted 1

. SuproineCourt to-day, deliveredby Chief JuHtieo Fuller. The facts inthe case, briefly, were these : Fvfort-tho law went into effect, a barrel ofwhiskey had been sent Into the Slat«of South Carolina by a citizen ol North< larollna, over tbo Booth Carolina rail¬way, a concoro operated by a receiverappointed by the United St at- » Court.Because of insulllclent address, tb<Srailroad officials could not deliver thebarrel to the consignee, and it wasstored in the railroad station, pend¬ing investigation by the officials to< It term ne the identity of the consignee.While thus stored, the barrel was seiz¬ed by C. B. Swan, a Stato constable,appointed to enforce the law. Heshowed no warrant for tho seizure ofthe liquor, other than his badge ofoffice, and stated that he acted with¬out instructions from any judiciul of-llcor.

Tho receiver of tho railroad hadConstable Swan brought beforo theUnited States Circuit Court to showcause why ho should not be punishedfor contempt of court in seizing theliquor. Upon tho hoaring of tho case,Swan was adjudged to be in contempt,and was committed to tho custody oftho United States marshal. The At¬torney Gonerul of the State thenbrought the case to the United StatesSupreme Court on a motion for Swan'srelcaso upou a writ of habeas corpus,contending that tho Circuit Court hadno jurisdiction in tho matter to enterany ordor respecting tho action of thoconstable.After roviowiug tho oaso at groutlength, Chief Justico Fuller stated the

opinion of this court to bo that thoCircuit Court did have jurisdiction oftho matter ; and, further, that becausetho seizure of tho liquor us mado bySwan was not expressly authorized bytho stututo under which bo eluimod tonet, he was not justified in making it.Tho motion for a writ of habeas corpus,theroforo, was denied.

In tbo course of his opiuion, ChiefJustice Fuller said :

" It must bo remembered that thisproporty was in tho custody, of the re-clever, tho officer of tho court; that ithad been brought into tho State be¬foro tho act went into operation ; thatit had not been delivered because ofimperfect address; that there was noconcealment and no occasion for huste ;und that there was no difficulty in theway of application to tho court to hnvethe goods dotuined or for ponnision towithdraw them from tho receiver'spossession. Nothing can be clearerthan that tho court had jurisdiction todotermine whothor the goods woreretained in violution of tho laws ofStute ; whether tho receiver, in con¬ducting tho business of tho rnilrond in.respect of the transportation of thisbarrel, was proceeding 'according totho valid luws of tho Stato,' as providedby the second section of the act of Con¬gress of March 3, 18S7 ; and whothortho soizuro wu3 authorized by any lawof the Stute."Tho possession of proporty by tho

judiciul department, whothor Fodoralor Stato, cannot bo arbitrarily en¬croached upon without violating thefundamental principle, which rcquirosco-ordinate departments to rofrain frominterference with tho independence ofeach other (in ro. Tylor. 149 U.S., 104);and tho position that a petty officer cantake property from tho possession of u.court, without permission and withoutwarrant, " upon his n\v«i *nOtlo»i andwithout instructions from any otherperson,'' as petitioner admits ho did,a^*T7. r:.-:^<yiutv i» imposedupon Mir» l»y.. w,>»g«-t.....tl., V , a.. .

. Prejudice don't even stop at Wash¬ington'. Before I say anything I wantto see what possible excuse they callhave for such a stretch of judicial au¬thority."Tho Governor was then asked for an

expression on the simple fuet that thedecision was against the State. Heanswered, and there was something ofa prediction in what ho had to say :

" Well, I can say that it only intensi¬fies the demand that must arise for thecurtailment of tho powers of the Föd¬eral Court, or wo will have no libertyat all. It further shows that the Fed-oral Supreme Court is not abovepartisan decisions when aimed at thoHeform movement. If we cannotarrest contraband liquor in the handsof a receiver wo cannot arrest a mur¬derer on a train run by a receiver, forthe State law is paralyzed by every suchdecision as this. Swan had disobeyedno ordor of tho court. Ho was simplyguilty of a trespass. I Imagine mymessage had more to do with it thanthe law. I can stand it, however."This was all the Governor would say,but it was brief and breezy, thoroughlycharacteristic of the man who is fight¬ing what ho boliovos is tho infringe¬ment of States' rights by tho FöderalCourts.This decision of tho courts will putSwan In jail to servo tho sontonoopassod upon him by Judge Simonton.

How Much the Americans Spent LA«tVear fbr Whiskey and Tobacco.

Special to the Atlant \ < on4titutiou.WASHINGTON, D. 04, December 17..

Although wo are counted a fairly solwrpeople in tho hurly-burly of nations,tho figures of the iuternal revenuecommission for tho last fiscal year outho amount of whiskey and Beer wodrink and tbo number of cigars andcigarettes wo make, and the quantityof tobacco wo chow are simply umu/.-ing.They make the head reel. The

preacher who peruses them will hie tothe pulpit to toll his congregation thatwe uro a nation ofdrunkards, ttupouedwith drink half of tho year anddrugged with tobacco the other half:that each year wo recklessly squanderupon those Inventions of Beelzebubthree times as much money as is re¬quired to keep this government in ope¬ration and more than is represented bythe circulating medium of the. UnitedStates. And when tho preacher doesthis ho will be throwing an armful offacts at his congregation.We cousumed last year, accordlug to

this report of Commissioner Miller,and it tells tho story as detailed inhard cash over the countor of the in¬ternal revenue oftlco, 87,000,000 gallonsof whiskey, brandy and distilledspirits, or in other work we drank0,000.000,000 glasses of whiskey forwhich we paid ovor tho bar the enor¬mous sum of $(500.000,000. or $50,000,000more than tho annual appropriationsof Congress combined. This repre-sents a consumption of 100 glussos ofwhiskey each year for every man, wo¬man and child botwoen tho rock boundPacific and the storm tossed Atlantic,or counting only male adults, 500glasses for each.Of boor tho figures are equally as¬

tounding. Tho consumption was31,062,94« barrels, that is 12,785,109,200glasses, representing an exponditurefor this modo of Teutonic hilarity of$017,258,4(i0. or about $10 for each in¬habitant. In tho neighborhood of 200glasses are chargod up in this curcula-tion aguinst each of us as our annualallowance. If we do not averago ourdaily glasses with our daily bread wemay bo sure our neighbors got thebenefit of our abstinence.

In tho matter of cigars, cigarettes,smoking tobacco and chewing tobaccowo are equally prodigal. The blue in-censo of .4,814,202,000 cigars and che¬roots, and tho curling weraths of 3,17(5,-093,000 cigarettes aid us in our reveriesand soothe us in our work. For thisluxury wo pay : for cigars and che¬roots, $253,7i>0.000; for cigarettes,$22,332,000. This is apportioned forcigars, 83 to each inhabitant cr41i> for each malo adult; elgurottes, 51to each man, woman and child, or 2e0to ench male adult. All this goes upin smoke each year, whilo people arebungoring for bread. But this doesnot include tho millions of bowls oftobacco that are consumed in pipes.Tho figures for smoking tobaceo can¬not bo separated from those for ehow-ing tobacco. Conbined wo consume279,720.093 pounds of tho fascinatingweed which eost us $139.(503.030.A Uprethi... ¦¦ lint ixxm+aor Htook (fFTÜZ- ? * Wne" W11USU Wp.il IUII.--rrrr^.-,^-^.__lboUtthe brimming goblet, and tho otherand imported native wines which driveaway oarking care, tho people of thoUnited States spend annually for drinkand tobaceo tho almost incomprchensi-bio sum of $1,041.903, KiO.
