EDITORIAL SYMPOSIUM.
Licensing Transients.
Adeohlon has been handed down in
the Supreme Court of Errors of the
State which is of more than ordinary in-
terest,declaringss it does that the law
which permits the officers of amunici-
‘ palityin the State to impose a license
upon "temporary or transient" dealers is
incubator with the first section of the
Bill of nights and therefore void. The
emewasoi a man who was convicted
‘lorselliugshoes without a city license
Jada Hammersley’s opinion was that
“legislature has power to require a
license for the transaction of any busi-
n. for raising a revenue or for regulat-
ilgihoouduot, but subjecttoths limi
blouse! the constitution of the State
and the constitution of the United
m. The act is not the exercise of
' the power of taxation, but purely a
trade regulation, and the crime of which
the defendant was convicted, consisted
wholly in the violation of the regulation.
The court holds that the'law in question
h not a regulatio’rmf‘ abusiness danger-
, public. and does not come
within the special principles applicable
beach regulations; that there is nothing
in the naure of such business more dan
“cunts the puplic when called tern
porsry than if called permanent; that
thceie no distinction between a bus-
uss conducted for an indefinite time
and the same business conducted
{a a short and definite time.
The statute draws no line of dis—
tiucticu except between a business that
istemporsry, and one thst is not. One
leno. more dangerous to the public'than
the other; one is no more essential to the
conduct of human affairs than the other.

nue, for instance, here and there some
public spirited cttlaen has employed the
urinhlsr or used the garden hose to wet
down the street in front of his premises
the pest week. but along the greater
portion of the street the dust has risen in
great clouds. a menace to health and

most unbearable. What is said of West

An Asiatic Alliance.
When Japan began to conquer China,
European powers begun to’growl and to

cu her terms more moderate than even

for the purpose of preventing Europe
from swallowing Asin, thou the United
States can only say to Chino and J upon.
“Go on, brethren, uud licuvon awed you

Japan's hold on the places she has

mu that those terms are very moderate
It is likely that the conditions im-
posed on Koren when J upon liberated
her and set her up for herself will also
be iuilmsod on China. The prim-ipulouo
of those coalitions was that tlul govern-
ment should be justly and ommutult'ully
uduiinisti-rcd. iuui iliut taxes should be
equitably ummrtiuuod. With these two
refrmns China would be in it fair way
to place hem-1f alongside of modern nu-

The attention of health associations
and private oitingns in many places is
attracted at last'"to those awful and
ghastly exposures of meat in front of
butchers’ shops everywhere. The bloody.
hideous corpses of calves, pigs and steers .
are little uppetiziug and are shocking to
persons of sensitive nerves. But aside
from this the meat that is exposed to
view on the street catches microbes of
the foulest kind in the dust that is al-
ways stirred up The microbes contain-
ed in that dust breed consumption, diph-
theria, smallpox and the worst diseases
known oven to civilization, A crusude
has been started to persuade boards of
health to require ments to be displayed
only inside the shops. If dealers desire
to call attention to their business. they
can have pictures pointed of. dead calves.
horrid chickens hanging? by the feet,
colt corpses with their glazing eyes
turned up in mortal agony and mou-
strous halves of oxen, course and tough.
Those they can display on tho sidewalk
if they will, and it will advertise their
business as effectually as tho real thing
now does. But the truth is thutthe only
way to display moot so that it will not
catch disease genus is to have it shut
up tight in u glass case. When we are
civilized, this method will be adopted.
it is very easy to understand why
China has encountered stuudy defeat in
her war with Japan. Tho cause rests in

mon soldier. Japan’s common soldiers
