prohibition movement wiliiin the
republican party c-ihiiii.atetl in a
state ttonfereiso t. te to-day. One
hundred and ninety-six delegates
were present, icpreseidiiig several
thousand republicans. Chanrean
Collins, of Keokuk, said he was a
lifelong prohibitionist and had
done all in his j owcr Ju enforce
the law in his city, but it had
failed. Other speeches followed in
a eimilar vein. Hon. A. B. Cum
mings, of Des Moines, presented a
retvort of the committee on ies;o!u
tions, which v. as icceivcd with
great enthusiasm. Tin; lesoiutions
declare- unswerving lillegiauce 10
the principles oi ih republican
party as enumerate I in tlie Chi
cago platform and continues: We
recognize the liquor Iraflic as one
which requires regulation, hut the
experience of this, as well as other
states, has conclusively shown that
general prohibition is not adapted
to either suppress intemperance or
promote morals, an'-, tlieretore ex
periments shou'd be abandoned
and the laws so modified that those
communities desiring a change
should have the right to determine
for themselves whether intoxicat
ing liquors are to Ik.- sold.
We are unalterably opposed to
any attempt to introduce into the
constitution the doctrine of state
prohibition. Inasmuch as :he
members of the party are not
agreed en the subject, there is ob
viously but one course which the
party "can honorably pursue, that
is to rigorously exclude frjni the
partv platform every reference to
it, leaving e.u-li member 01 the
legislature full liberty to act with
resect to it as bis judgment may
direct.
The prohibition question came
un in the lower house of the legis
lature this afternoon. "The demo
cratic caucus license hill was con
sidered. Richman, democrat, said
in some local cities prohibitory law
was openly iolated. while in
others it is observed. The demo
crats wanted to remedy this condi
tion of affairs, and in localities
where protnhition is unpopular
they want the liquor traffic regu
lated. The bill provided for set
tling the matter cf license or 110
license by a popular vote. Licenses
are to be granted only by the dis
trict court, ami then only to proper
persons. Any one Could make a
remonstrance against a license and
if such remonstrance is considered
BiifKcient the license shall le re
iused. The license is to be fixed
at a minimum of $500. A bond of
j $5000 is required. After a long de
I bate the matter went over.
FORCED TO RESIGN.
New Light on Bismarck's Retire
ment From Berlin.
IT WAS NOT VOtrXTARV
Hjtv th Youui; Emperor ShelTSd
tbi Mm WhoEniltUp the
German Kaiioc.
Bi:ri.ix, April 1. No German
newspaper dare print the story of
theChancellor's retirement. Only
foreign papers dare do it. Bis
marck has not gone willingly, but
has Wen forced, against his will,
to resign the Chancellorship of t he
stale lie has served so well.
The truth is that the Kaiser's
mind has been prejudiced against
his faithful old servant. He is
persuaded that he can govern
without a Chancellor. The Kaist r
began to treat the Prince cooliy
soon after tlie latter's return to
Berlin. This coolness increased
sj rapidly that the Prince formally
raised the issue and finally, with
characteristic bluntness, " asked:
"Am 1 in your way?" To the
Prince's astonishment his Majesty
gave no positive denial on the
spot, but seemed inclined to tem
jxirize. Then the Prince intimated his
willingness to surrender all his
other.-, except the direction of
foreign aiTairs.
I p to ten days aeo this arrange
ment was agreeable to the Kaiser.
Then he sent to the Prince certain
orders he knew the latter would
rather resign than execute. When
the Prince presented the matter
anew to his sovereign, the rderu
were rejeated, with the knowledge
that the Chancellor's resignation
would follow. Tlie Chancellor,
though, oi course, greatly excited,
kept his head and did not send in
his resignation at once.
His Aiajesty became impatient,
and the question was several times
put to the Chancellor: "Why do
you not send in your resignation V
li the Chancellor had continued
to keep cool he would have said :
"I do not send it because I am no
coward, 110 Falstall', to run .away
from men in buckram to takemy
leave just as the Socialists and the
stikers hegin lo threaten."
But his Majesty's resolution
was not to Ik- shaken. As soon as
he thought he could do letter
without the Chancellor he with
drew irom him.
There is no sadder story in his
tory than the estrangement of the
liv:i Chancellor ."rom the reigning
sci-iTi of the royal Iioue to wi.om
he had devoted the glorious gilts
lsestowcd 011 him by the Creator
during a lifetime exceeding by
several years the usual jieriod al
lotted t-mankind. It is not that
old age has dimmed his eves,
clouded his faculties or impaired
his strt tigth, so I am assured by
one of his ild friends who talked
with him the other day. He wat
iu ihe undress uniform of his new
rank, tall, erect, quick in move
ment, his eyes dear, his complex
ion that of an Oxford undergradu
ate iu training for a Ixjatrace. He
was rapid of sjieach, too, with
one simile after another bursting
forth with a continuity quite
bewildering, lie rides for an
hour or so every day. ami his figure
is strong and stalwart, without a
superlhious ounce of flesh. I l is
eyes protrude slightly, as phreno
logists say is always the case
with those Viimse memory is pro
digious, and have the bright light
that shines in the eyes of men
whose courage never fails.
He looks what he is the very
essence and embodiment of mod
em iiiiK'rial Germany. Even his
jHilitieal enemies, by" whom his
departure is heralded as a victory,
are becoming anxious. It begina
to dawn ilium them that his loss
is no gain to parliamentary gov
ernment, but quite a reverse am'
a gain to the cause of a strongly
centralized military government.
