THE OMAHA "DAILY BEE. SEVENTEENTH YEAB. OMAHA , MONDAY MOHNING. SEPTEMBER 12. 1887. NUMBER 8GJ ' ft' IOWA'S ' GREAT DISTILLERY , Details of the Hecent Decision of the Supreme premo Oourt. THE OPINION OF JUSTICE SEEVE | Io Holds That 1C the Position of the flln.lorlty Is Correct the 1'rolil- Ultory Htntuto Is Uncon stitutional. Ttio International. Dun Moixns , la. , Sept. 11. [ Special Tele- cram to the Bun.I The supreme court has filed Its opinion In the case brought to per manently enjoin the International distillery of this place as a nuisance tor alleged viola tion of the prohibitory law. It sustains the Injunction decree of the lower court The majority opinion , written by Justice Beck , iccelves the assent of Justices Adams and Bothrock. A dissenting opinion , written by Justice Seovers , receives the approval ot Jus tice Ueed. Suit was brought last spring to have the distillery enjoined from manufac turing alcohol on proof spirits , on the ground that the prohibitory law which forbade the manufacture andsalu of liquor , applied to It the same as to the brewery or saloon. The owner of thodlstlllcrv , Mr. GeoigeW Kldd , of Now York , resisted the suit on the ground that his maiiufjcturo was entirely for export without the state , and that no portion ot his goods was sold In Iowa. Ho had secured the advice or eminent counsel in New lorlc be fore building the distillery here , and had been assured that , as ho was manufacturing for export only , his plant could not bo Inter fered with by the state law. The district court granted a temporary Injunction , sus pending Its eflect for a few wenka to enable the distillery to close up Its affairs , and then made the Injunction permanent. The case was appealed to tlio supreme court , the defendant holding that the provi sions of the prohibitory law applied only to manutactuie and sale within tno state aud that to Interfere with a business carried on with citl/.ons of other states would be an Interference with commeice which congress alone has the power to regulate. The ma jority opinion holds that the right ot the stale'to ptohiblt the manufacture of alcohol is absolute and that It applies to the distillery whatever may bo the ultimate destination of the product. It holds that It docs not lute- fere with Inter-state commerce , because It simply pievents the manufacture of an article , before It becomes a subject tor trans portation. It holds thatlf It Isazaitibt public policy that liquor be manufactured and sold in Iowa , then this state has no right to per mit Its manufacture for sale tn other states. The minority opinion , written by justice Sosvers concludes as follows : In my judg ment the plain and only meaning ot the statute Is that the sale tn this stile and the manutactuto fur sale and use in this state of Intoxicating liquors for unlawful purposes are alone prohibited , and that the statute does not undeitaku to say what may bu done with the liquor In another stato. If it did sea a question would be presented as to the validity of the statute. Therefore , thi ! rlirht to sell and transport liquor from the stale oxlsls simply because It Is not prohib ited. In my opinion the construction of the statut'j adopted by the majority makes a conflict between It and the constitution of the United States , and therefore the filth par agraph of the foregoing opinion Is unsound. As long as Intoxicating liquors and corn are regarded as property , the right to trans , port cither out of the state exists , althougli the avowed use of the corn so shipped Is the manufacture ot such liquors in another fctito. I also desire to reserve to myself the right hereafter to determine the extent ol police po'ver Inherent in the state. As an individual 1 cordially assent to all that is said In tno opinion ot the majority as to the evils of Intemperance , but I nave doubts as tn Its materiality lu the determination of thi : controversy. _ Death of a Uavonport Citizen.

COI.UMIIUS , O. , Sept. 11. | Special Tele- pram to the BrK. | President Cleveland , smarting under the action taken by Gov ernor Foraker concerning the now famous rebel Hag order , has Improved the lirst op- lioriuuity to air his grievances In a miblie way. About a month ao the governor wrote the president , courteously Invltlnic him to visit Columbus on his way to St Louis and promising him distinguished consideration at the hands of the Ohio people regardless of party. This was supplemented n week later by an Invitation from the hoard of trade , couched In the same respectful Ian uage Vestciday an answer came from the presi dent to the latl Invitation declining the honor of a reception at Columbus , but the president refused to answjr the letterof Gov ernor Foraker. It Is said when It became known that both the board of ttado and gov ernor had sent Imitation ? , certain democrats of this city sent a telegram to General Black , commissioner of pensions , siiKgestlng that the public regarded It as highly presumptuous In the governor to send such a letter to Cleveland - land after the governor's course ml asking the commissioner to use ils Influence tn have the president cccpt the invitation of the board of trade , ml Ignore the governor's invitation. It ivas also suggested that this would make the governor feel very small and that tbe public ivould applaud the president for thus oxhlb- .tlng his contempt for the governor. In duo time a reply came from Colonel Lament , tlio piesiden'ts private secretary , asking for a itatement of the circumstances under which ho Invitation was sent , public sentiment on he subject , etc. A letter was accordingly lent , giving the desired Information , and .here the matter rested. The tact that no ro- iily has been received by Iho governor would ndlcate that the Columbus gentlemen have iiiccecded In Inducing the president to snub ho governor. The outcome of the affair Is lauslng considerable talk In political circles. METCOUOtiOUIOAIj PHENOMENA. Waterspouts Said to He Caused By Iron Tracks In Mexico.

Renewed buoyancy fol lowed , but the advance In twice * was so tempting that the bulls fed the market freely , and this brought the upward movement to an abrupt termination. As soon as the rise was checked the bears took courage and made repeated attacks on the list with con siderable effect , n combination of clrcum- tances favoring them fora time. Humors of u disturbing nature flow thick and fast , it being eportcd that some lirms weio about to fall , hat the Bank of England would raise Its ate of discount to 5 per cent , and that there was a hitch In the Baltimore & Ohio tele graph deals , but none of these wcio after ward verified by events. The threatening at- Undo of Chicago switchmen , as well as the passenger war among the Granger roads , which n as subsequently fixed up , were also used with uioro or loss effect against specula tion. Another thing that tended in no small degree to create uneasiness was the roiusal of the secretary of the treasury to buy any bonds , although more than one-hall of the amount offered was al i price slUhily below bidding quntitloii n the maiket at the time tlio proposals were opened. This led to some apprcheiiDiou in regard to money , and tlio stiffness of call and time loans which followed , materially assisted the bears In their efforts to bring about a decline. Manhattan ( hopped nine points and the rest ot the list from 0110 to six points , with Missouri Pacilic , the Northern Pacific giotip , some of the Grantors , I'acllic Mail , and Terminal in the lead. Near the close a rumor was stinted that Western Un- lion had ucmilred thu Baltimore A : Ohio tele graph , and on this thoslockof the formei bounded up amid great excitement to the highest ligures yet made. The other markets symp.Uhlzea , some shares partially and others wholly recoveiiiiK the early decline , Just previous to this movement Mr , Gould came ouUn an inteiview , in which he stated that he was not in sympathy with the beans , as they represented him to be , and the rise certainly looked as if ho were taking effective fectivo measures to satisfy the street on that point. Kail road bonds were quiet through out the week. In early dealings there was a decline of M@3X points , fort Worth , latt Texas Pacillo incomes and Oregon Trans continental leading. Subsequently some re covery took place , chiclly In sympathy with the share list.

Collector Hagor has thrown the responsibility on Surveyor Tlnuln , who passed the trunks on being Informed that they wore the per sonal effects of distinguished clsltors. The collector has lost his temper over the affair. In an interview , ho charges that the custom house authorities hero are handicapped In various ways by Washington decisions and orders and that the restriction act ts In con sequence of no effect , lie notified the United States district attorney , he says , that ho would write to the treasury department that the custom house at ban Francisco might bo relieved of the responsibility ot tn ing to keep out Chinese omiKrauts when United States courts weio admlt- ing them by thousands.

MotBUftck Conservatives Ousted from Ufllco and n Constitutional Con vention Called Randall and I'onmnstrr JIarrlty ntOuts. A Now Diplomat. WASHINGTON" , Sept 11. ( Special Telegram to the BKI : . J ( luatcmala has just sent a now minister to Washington. During the last two years that republic has hail nodlplomatic icpresentatlvo here. When General Barrios the president-dictator , was killed In 1SS3 , the liberal patty wont under for awhile , and the desire of the cleilc.U-reacllonlsts for friendly relations with the United States was not suf ficiently strong to call for thu maintenance of a mouthpiece at Washington. But now tlio clericals have been hurled from power , the liberals have come to the top again , aud as a diplomatic representative of the new liberal regime , SonorFrancis Salnfclsta lias come to Washington. The matter he Is most con cerned about at present Is to ob- ttln what ho calls the moral support of the United States to prevent Mexican troops now massed on the frontier .torn breaking Into Uuatamala aud over running It with violence , and to restore the llnances and cicdit ot the country. "We have had , " bald ho , "a popular revo- .utlon In Guatemala. President * Barrios has proclaimed himself dictator , has dissolved the legislature , and called thu constitutional convention to meet In October , bo far all as been peaceful and bloodless , but the crucial period will be when that constitu tional convention meets next month. The republic Is not yet out of danger. The dic tatorship was demanded by the people al most unanimously , aud it has been iccog- nlzed by the representatives of all the gov ernments except that of Mexico. The Mexican government refuses to accept or ac knowledge the dictator , has withdrawn Its diplomatic representatives fiom our capital , and Is now concentrating Mexican tioops on our frontier. The conservatives , who are the ailstoeracy , clergy , and descendants of the old SpanMi rulers , having been cast out of thoollices they abused , have entered Into a conspiiacy cither tor the restoration of them selves to power , or the annexation of Gaute- mala to Mexico. What has been going on In ( jautetuala and on the frontier lias not been reported at all lu the United States , be cause communications are practically cut off by Mexico , which means us no good. The annexation of ( iautomala by Mexico would moan the MibH'Qiient annexation of the whole of Central America , for the five re publics ot Central America aie bound to come together under oue genei al govern men t , either in the shape of a federal union , for nhlcii General Barrios fought aud died , or by annexation to Mexico ice , which Is the worst thing that could happen to them. The liberals , on the con trary , want to develops their conn try after the example of the United States. They want to cultivate closer relations of amity and commerce with this country , and it there must bo annexation they would prefer to bo annexed to the United States. Since the in dustrial Improvements Inaugurated by Presi dent Barrios , wo ate producing large quanti ties of sugar and coffee which we could send to the United States If the latter would only icduce the tariif slightly. Then we want American capital to build a. cullroad between Livingston on tlio Gulf of Hon duras to Guatemala City , which Is 210 miles distant. Tlio work of constructing the road was ho un n few years ago , but was suspended during the war in which General Barrios lost his life. The conservatives , who have been In power ever since , have not encoutaged thoreMimption of work. 'Iho rights of American railroad owners and builders In Guatemala , worn Ignored by the conservatives during the brief exercise of their power , are made good again aud are held Inviolate by the liberals.

The Iowa State Kalr. Dr.s MOINKS , la. , Sept. ll.-Spcclnl [ to thrf BKI.I : Iowa has been holding its annual ) good natiued spree the past week that IsJ agricultural Iowa. The slate fair , which Is ? to Iowa like the festal week which many1 Kmopcan nations enjoy , has boon In pro- ! gmss with greater success than over before. ' People have poured Into the city from thri tour quarters of the slate , till the town barf seemed like a modern tower of Babel wltW Its confusion of toiieues. Whether the rural' districts sent all of tholr people to the fair ol' not , they were mote or less demoralised by reason of It , and trade has been temporarily , suspended , and merchants called In tholr travelling men to stay till the fair was over. There are thousands ot Iowa fanners and tholr families who take this occasion for n little excursion to the outside world , ahtl then go back to the farm for another year's confinement. Brief as Is the escape from the drudgery of the farm , the little trln does them a great deal of cood. They get their Ideas enlarged , tholr judgment1 broadened and tholr knowledge ot what Is icolngon In the woild materially Increased. ' They go back to the farm to mane more from It , to make themselves better , and so the state Is Indirectly boncli'.od. Tha fair tins ! year has been In some respects better than anyot Its predecessors. This was certainly so lu regaul to the value and quality of the llvo stock exhibited. Kxnurloncod judges say that there has never before been so line a * collection of cattle and horses brought to gether. Some ot the famous herds of tuo United States were hcio , and the value oC the stocl ; exhibit alone Is placed at 81,000,009 a pietlv big sum to bo put Into flesh and bones. There \\nre 3.10 blooded hoises on ux hlhitlon , nut including the horses entered tor the races. One herd of tony horses , fiom' le Kalb , Ills. , was valued at § 100,000. Tha Field brothers , who are hist among Iowa1 block breeders , had a little herd of thirty hoises present , whoso cash value Is placed at 870,000. Another herd ol Iowa hoises from Keota Is valued at STO.OUO , and It wasn't a ; very dlllleult matter to count up SWJO.OOU worth ot blooded hoi.ses on tha grounds , leaving out the racers. So , too , with the ling cattle , the exhibition was remaikablo for its sl/o and value. There weio 4" > 0 blooded cattle , whobo cash value leaches neaily a quarter ot a million dollars. So llieio seems lo bo some foundation for thu statement thai this was the most valuable exhibition of Una stock Ihat has ever been biouglit together. I'ot.iTicsTO'iiu : nto.Nr AOAI.V. Now that the lair Is over , business Slid" politics will once more resume tholr noimal aclrvlty .Tlio politicians , In fact , have been waiting for the fair to close before bogl nnlnj } the campaign. Now they mo gelling ready and will soon make jt as lively as ever and probably u little more so. The republicans Inaugurate their speaking eampaign on tha 4th ot October and tbe demsciats will follow shortly after. The contest lor stale olllces Is likely to bo less spirited than for member * of the legislature. The elcctloi > ! of thnicpnbll- ' can state ticket U .so much a foicgonu conclu sion that the democrats can't get up much , enthusiasm on the .subject. They hope , how ever , to make some gains In thu legislature , * on the two lines ol anti-prohlbliion and anti- monopoly. Unfortunately for them the men who made their antimonopoly ely platlnrm baldly comport with * the sentiments it utters , as nine of the eleven who composed the committee on plat- f01 m , are lawyeis , and nearly all lallroad or corporation lawyeis. lu consequence , that state ls having a great lauzh at the expanse of these "anti-monopoly" corporation law- yei.s. The republican platfoim recognizing the spirit of the times , speaks veiv plainly and emphatically lor proner control of rail way and other corporations- , and btronijly uiges a reduction in freight chargc.s. Theio will be some warm contests for the legisla ture. In this county theruaro iwo Independ ent lopubllcans who aie making a campaign solely on thij question ol prohibition , being pledged. If elected , to vote for the repeal of the prohibition law and the substitution of local option and high license , U U n Uttlo early yet to predict what following they will have. In Hamilton county , Hon. Charles Aldrleli , who IIHH not locelved nil of the pu- lll'cil ' honors which ho has desired , has come out as an independent republican candidate lor the legislature. Howeverwithout the least prospect of an election. As there Is to be a United States senator elected by the next legislature , there will bo unusual Interest In the election of members , and republicans' , In consequence , will keep the paity lines dressed closely. MADK TIIIMSIIVIS : : AT HOMK. The crowds of people attending the fair were as a whole veryordeily and well be haved , but they swooped down upon the town llko an Invasion ot Cloths and Huns. The state house was a place of constant re sort , and the countrymen tazed In wldo-eyo4 astonishment at the costly frescoes , expen sive fiirnltuie and elegant carpets. Ono paity from the rural districts , assuming ; that as the state house was built of the money of the people it was their property , to bo used fop their convenience , strayed Into the elegant supreme court chambers , ami-spread thole lunch on the caivnd mahogany. If there la ono place more than another about the buildIng - Ing which the custodian guards sacredly It Is this apartment , which is furnished most ex pensively and Is fitted uu gorgeously. Judge ol his astonishment whenstrolling ( about , no entered these rooms and discovered the cioup of countrymen leisurely eating thelt lunch there with the crumbs falling upon the 8-1,000 carpet , and the butter dropping : Into S'JOS grease spols. Ho was at lirst para- ly/ed with Indignation , then recovering hl9 tongue , ho startled the assembly with a com- blnallon of expletives that turned back the hands ot the inarblo clock a whole hour , and made the chandeliers tiomblo. It Is need less to bay that the sacrilegious visitors did not linger to complete their lunch. ' Up in Hancock county , business and pleasure arc both temporarily suspended while the board of .supei visors ot Iowa wrestle with agieat problem. A couple ot sections of the code provides that each coun ty shall pay a bounty forovoi v scalp of wolf , lynx , "swift" or wildcat killiid within It * borders. Some fellows from Ciystat town ship have brought In the scalps ofthirty ; lizards and demand a bountvof 30. The boaid Is In a quandary. It understands that tint staluto referring to a "Bwltt" meant something el : > o than a li/.aid. In fact , the ' oldest Inhabitant" Insists that n "swill" Is a species of fox , but thfl avaricious countrymen turn triumphantly tn Webster's Unabridged and find there a statement that a "mvltt" Is a species of ll/arrt. "If Wehstei Isn't authority In this country , then who Is ? " demand tl.o backers ( if the ll/.ard as they clamor for their money.
