THE ELKO INDEPENDENT.
SATURDAY. MARCH IL. 1870.
a Mean Han Who Go. Converted.

There was great revival in the region where
old Smithers, a. every body called him, lived,
and II took hold of him one day. Smitbsrs
was dreadful mean man. oppressive TO the
poor. and all thai, and never paid debt Il he
could help IL. He had been known to turn a
poor widow. with a large family of small
E children. out into the streets on a cold Win
ter's day. because she was unable TO pay the
rent OF the miserable shanty she had II him.
He was commonly known as .Old Smithers,"
although he wasn't so very old either: but we
have noticed that all mean men have the pre-
fI old attached TO their names generally,
when their neighbors syeak of them.
Old Smithers took habit, :" as they say in
Wisconsin, to attend one of the ''protracted
meetings" He was struck with conviction
the first day and hopefully converted. as he
claimed, the next. After his conversion he
was announced TO address his fellow sinners
and sinneresses on the following Sunday az
ternOOn. The news that old Smithers hatgOt
religion spread al about the neighborhcoi
Some doubted il; said be vas putting il on so
to skin folks Little closer; others, more
charitable, said it might be true and they
hoped he would not be so mean in the future.
if il was.
Sunday afternoon arrived and the church was
crowded. The entire neighboorhoOd turned
out To hear what 50 mean a man as old Smith
ers would have to say for himself after pass
ing through conviction and conversion. All
was sun IN the church when old Smlthers
arose TO speak. he began by telling what
mean man he had been all his life He said
he had probably done more mean things than
any man of his years and opportunities living,
and if there Was any mean thing he had
failed 20 do it was either because he hadn't
thought of it or there WAS no good chance.
After going somewhat into details regarding
his meanness astonishing even those who
thought they knew him best, with the recital.
and declaring his inter unvOrthiness, he re-
sumed his seat
There was brief pause, after which a neigh
boz OF old Smithers, a member of the church.
arose and said: ~ have lived nigh neishbor

Just listened to Brother Smithers remarks. and
from an intimate acquaintance with him and
his actions for . number OF years, / am pre-
pared 10 indorse, in the fullest manner, all
the charges he has made against himself, and
more too. He is certainly the meanest man

Then arose old Smithers, pale and trem-
bling with raGs. and exclaimed: IT'S a

France nmd Her Foreign RcIntiOns-Thc
Yellow Rook.

PARIS. Dec. l0.-The official TelIoec Book just
published, gives a favorable account of the condl-
ton of France. 1t states that her relations with
foreign powers, and their relations with one another
are still more amlcable since the conferences in the
dispute between Greece and Turkey was held in
Paris. The situation of the North German COnfed-
Grafton is not such as to cause France to change
her attitude. In Italy. order is gaining ground in
spite of revolutionary movements. The book
makes an important declaration with regard to the
Ecumenical Council. This body, it says, is beyond
the pale of political powers so the Emperor has
resolved to USE his right to intervene in it's deliber-
atoms, and through their representatives all the
Catholic powers approve of this course. The Tur-
key-Egyptian question is reviewed, and the efforts
made to reconcile the Sultan and the Viceroy are
dwelt on at length. American affairs are treated
as follows The advent of Gen. Grant to the Presi-
dency of the United States has made no change In
the good relations existing between the two nations.
France has assisted the efforts of the Government
to establish peace between Spain and the Pacific
Republics, but the sympathy shown by the United
States and South America with the Cuban rebellion
has unfortunately complicated the settlement OF
the above question. Concluding this subject. the
book says: The French Government has no reason
to violate the laws of neutrality. The only aim Of
This Government is to develop peacefully its foreign
relations. and guard the interests of France.

PROHIBITION A FAHURE-The result of the cleo
ton in Massachusetts is a virtual admission that
stringent prohibitory legislation, as a means of
preventing intem pers eHH inefficient and I'M
popular. A majority o.shibitionists has
been elected to both branches or the Legislature,
and it is probabIe that a discI iminating license
law will be substituted for prohibition. The
authorities have utterly failed to enforce prohibi-
ton. They succeeded in stopping the open public
sale of intoxicating drinks but this only drove
the traffic into secret places, where it throve more
than ever. or increased the habit of private indul-
gence by lending it the Zest of ~unlawtulncss and
peril. Drunkenness increased rather than dimin-
ished. The authorities were forced into conces-
sions that permitted the sale of beer, and the whole
force of the experiment was lost, not alone by
what it failed to do but by what it abandoned.
The provisions of the law were made doubly
odious by the machinery necessary to enfore them,
which has been felt as an arbitrary interference
with personal liberty. Hence a great popular re-
action. confined TO no party, in a measure indie
pendent of party, which has secured a majority
representation in the Legislature without changing
the political complexion of that body. These
facts are but repetitions of every experiment in
the line OF extreme sumptuary Legislation. The
modified by formal e~nactments. If prohibItory
laws cannot be enforced in Massachusetts where
the moral instinct is so highly educated, and the
sanctions of law and order are so powerful. where
can they be The advocates of prohibition in
other States will do well to ponder the question:
