A Story of John A. Logan.
.It used to be told of Gen. Logan,
who was a member of congress at the
breaking out of the war, that when
he saw there was really going to be a
fight, he seized a musket, slipped out
of Washington and walked all the
way to Bull Run, where bo arrived
just in time to have a hand in the
fray.
He wore a dress coat, but stood his
gr;und as long as anyone. The route
was complete, and the next morning,
a good deal out of breath, he was
back at he capital telling some of his
fellow congressmen what he had
seen.
"Who gave you this account of the
fight?" asked a member from northern
New York; as he joined the group.
"Why, I was there myself," said
Logan
The New Yorker wias mystified.
Apparently he had not heard the
news.
"You were therel" he exclaimed.
"Are the cars running?"
"No," said Logan, "the cars are not
running, but everything else in the
State of Virginia is, as near as I could
make out."
Public Opiunion.
There has been a great deal of false B
sentiment wasted over that Coxey tri
al in Washington. The right of as
sembly and the right of petition were
not denied to Coxey, Browne and
Jones. They broke the law in head
ing a mob to the Capitol grounds, in
attempting to make an address from
the Capitol steps, and in trampling
on the grass. That is all there is to
the case. They have been found
guilty and should pay the penalty.
Salt Lake Herald (Dem.).
The Unsettled Liquor Question. 1]
If the News and Courier and the bi
lawyers who agree with it are right au
in their view of the law, there is not
so much prohibition in "the law as it
now stands" after all. If there really L
be legal loop-holes, it is well known
what the result will be. Of one
thing there cannot be any doubt: bi
The legislature and the courts to- P
gether have put the people between
"the devil and the (ep sea" on the
liquor question. -Lancaster Review. $
