In accepting the nomination for
governor, in October, 1882, lie thus de
tined liis position, from which lie line
never wavered:
"Corporation,, aro created by the law
lor certain defined purpose, and arc
restricted in their operation,, by specific
limitations. Acting within their logiti
mato sphere they should be protected;
but when bj combination or by the exor
'cisool unwarranted power they oppiess the
people, tho saino authority which created
should restrain them and protect the
rights of tho citizen. Tho law lately
passod for tho purpose of adjusting the
relations between the people and cor
porations, should lie executed in good
faith, with an honest design to effectuate
Us objects and with a duo regard lor the
interests involved.”
Almost tho first not performed by him
ns governor was in fulfillment of tho law
hero referred to, tho railroad commission
not, which authorized the appointment
of three railroad commissioners, one from
ouch ol the two groat political parties,
and one upon the nomination ol the anti
monopoly bodies. Despite great pressure
to tho contrary, and without waiting fora
proposed amendment ol tho law, Gov.
Cleveland promptly nominated three
oommissionars in literal compliance with
the old law, accepting without hesitation
tho anti monopoly candidate, Mr.
'O'Donnell, who now holds his office
under the appointment of Gov. Cleve
land, Tho fact that tho work of the
railroad commission has boon so well done
as not only to justify its cication to those
even who were originally doubtful of its
value, but also to he in a high degroe
satisfactory to the anti monopoly senti
merit which led to its formation, is duo to
Die conscientious care with which Gov.
■Cleveland, ignoring every consideration
but the purpose of tho law, selected tho
‘mouthers who wore to serve upon it.

Some lime hack the legislature of Ohio,
in response to the demand of tho people
of that State, passed a high licen.-e enact
ment, which was known ae tho Soott law
from the name of its proposer. The
liquor dealers to get rid of it applied to
the courts, but the latter have just re
turned au evasive decision which practi
cally keeps the law in force. This de
cision will be worth millions of dollars to
the tax-payers of that State It must be
oonfessed that our State courts have too
often played into the hands of the liquor
dealers. They have in effect partially
nullified the prohibition enactments of
the States of Kansas and lowa. Tho
time has come when the moral sentiment
of the community must array itself against
the judges who interpose legal quibbles
to protect the infamous traffic in intoxi
cating drink. This is tho giant evil of
our ago. Over $.100,000,000 per annum
is spent in this country in the purchase of
ardent spirits. The use of liquor must
cost a vastly greater sum indirectly, in
the criminals and paupers it creates, while
there are uo figures that can convey an
idea of the misery and the heart-break
which result from the liquor traffic. The
prohibition sentiment is growing in every
part of the country, and every man and
woman who think of the future of tlieir
children should unite to discountenance in
every way, moral and legal, the sale and
use of every kind of intoxicating diink.—
