Letter from an Indignant Democrat.

To The Editor Of The Tribune:
SIR: You are always preaching Temperance and al
most every article in your paper on the subject has some
thing to say about Rum Democracy" Now why is this
sol Is it because you think this Of calling the
Democratic party the Rum party will help the Temperance
cause Or is because you wish to make votes for the
Wig party by il think it is the latter. for certainly
can be Of no benefit to the Temperance cause,
ions SMITH. No. SO Avenue II.
u We beg leave to Mr.. Smith that We have
no desire to make votes for the Wing party, if there
be any such party in existencenOne in the least so
he may rest perfectly easy on that head. We cannot
remember that we have often used the phrase he OBJ
iects to if we have we have probably been mpeled to
it by reason which he will hardly comprehend
conviction that it was expressive and true Does Mr.
Smith deny this If he does, what does he knoD of
the matter Does he or does he know that at least
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. of all the gogshOps in the land are
kept by Democrats Does he not know that the Oppo-
nents of the Maine Law in Maine nearly all Demo-

Does he not know that tie Democratic party Organza

he looked at the vote by which Maine Law bills have

short, does Mr. Smith know any thing of the matter he
dips into And if not could he do better than to say
