BRorHKRs AND SISTERS:

To Gallta County Louses l. Y. Y, T.
BRorHERs AND SISTERS:
By our own free
will and accord, we have united our
selves in hand and heart against the
uErighteous and unholy liquor traffic.
We have promised to discounten-
ance in every honorable way in our
power, the use, sale and manufacture
of all intoxicating drinks.
We have buckled on our armor for
fight and are already marching on to
victory and conquest.
No pompous display Of marching
columns, passing in long review. or
dazzling. shining STEEL no high
sounding notes of brass and tinkling
symbols, accompany us on our
course or onward march. Silent
and peaceful, like an army of moral
reformers, we move along, fighting
and battling as we go the great and
common adversary of mankind.
Every member of the order of
Good Templars, and every honest
well meaning citizen of the country,
must have desire and a love for the
prosperity of the great Temperance
cause, and a willingness to assist and
aid it in its onward march.
Victory in war is due in great
part, to good generalship, and if we
wish to succeed we must act the part
off wise commander.
He who so arranges and stations
his army that all his force and
strength is made useful and syaiIa-
BILE, all his weak points guarded, and
his strong ones secured is the best
and most prudent general.
We, therefore, like the good gen.
eral, should so adjust our columns
and our lines, that the power and
strength we possess, may redeund
to the advancement of our cause and
the institution for which we are
laboring.
I Therefore would suggest for the
sake and strength of the cause in our
county, tina. we proceed immediate
ly to take steps towards organizing
county Lodge.
/ deem this important because it is
expedient. In every county where
the temperance question is receiving
any extra marks of attention, there is
a county Lodge that serves their
greatest strength and encourage
ment.
We have in our county, that /
know of, six Lodges of the Indepen-
dent Order of Good Templars, which
give us iattering and an encour-
aging force, of at least four hundred
active workers. In the immediate
of all these Lodges a
good and glorious work is being
done. But greater and more glori-
GUS still would be our work were we
to unite in one common body, and to
act in harmony and consort with one
great center point.
This suggestion hope will meet
the approval and appreciation of all
the sister Lodges, and that in short
time we may have a wide awake, in
teresting and thoroughly organized
County Lodge.
In unity there is strength.
would like to hear through the
Journal a general expression from
all the Lodges upon this question.
If ell seem united in sentiment and
feeling, we then can take proper and
legitimate steps towards organizing
\ Lodge of this character, which
am confident will afford US pleasure,
encouragement, enlightenment and
strength.

re- A correspondent of the Ports
mouth Tribune claims the candidate
for Congress for Scioto county
To this the Jackson Standard well
says:-"We were not aware that any
county had any right to claim the
candidate. If SO, We suppose that
Lawrence, Gallia or Vinton, would
have claims superior to Adams, Sci
oto or Jackson" Scioto and Law
renee have now the two best offices
the District affords, and now comes
Scioto and claims the Congressman.
Perhaps it is all right, but we must
confess it don't look so to us.

% The Democrats pretend to be
in favor of taxing bonds, but look at
their action the other day in Con-
gress. They voted solid to repeal
the income tax-voted against tax
ing even the income of the bond
holder. Think you they would tax
the bonds when they even refuse to
tax the income received from them?
We are not green enough for that.

Democratic Professions and
Practice,

-
Practice.
The Democrats talk glibly about
Republican extravaganza in the affairs
of Government, and the necessity of a
change of officials, State and National,
to bring about more rigid economy
in the administration of the Govern
ment. But when an opportunity offers
foE practical evidence of their desire
to retrench. they fail to make it mani
lest. An improved tax bill, with a
short tariff, was prepared in the U. s.
House of Representatives few days
ago, the whole reducing taxes upon
The people in the sum of about fifty
i've millions of dollars annually. The
bill was passed by vote of 159 yeas
to 35 nays. The 35 voting no were
all Democrats, who, to man, voted
for the continuance of onerous and un-
necessary taxation upon the people =
Again, when the question of repeating
the franking privilege came up in Con-
gress the other day, which would save
the people millions of dollars, the DEM
ocrats were opposed to repeal. Sena-
tor Sherman Republican from this
State, voted for retrenchment and re-
peal, while Senator Thurman Demo
crat, voted for the continued waste of
the public moneys in the transmission
of mail matter, old boots, &c.. for Con.
gressmen, through the mails, gratis.-
The Democracy are great friends of re-
trenchment, when out of Office, but
when in. are into the public purse with
long arms and unlimited consciences.

San Francisco is preparing to keep Christmas
in right good style. Every year there is an in
creasiug tendency to observe the festival in the
true spirit Of Him whose advent it celebrates to
make it season of forgiveness, of charity and of
good deeds, Of happiness for the unfortunate,
pardon for the wrongdoer and peace and good
will for all. There was time and not many
years ago when such a thing as Home was un-
known in this State. Then when Christmas
came round that holy word had no living pres
ent significance, but meant distant spot across
ocean and continent Now it has deep, strong
present meaning; meaning growing with each
revolving year; meaning that will be as fall of
sacred purifying associations for our children as
the recollection of our old homes is for their
fathers meaning that the tendrils of memory
will cling to from childhood to manhood, and
from manhood to old age a holy word that will
be fraught with the incense of past years the
fragrance Of love and the sweetness of affection
holy word that will always suggest that still
holer one-mother.
$50 as homes are built up and family circles
formed there is an increasing tendency to observe
the festival in right good style, TO keep it as it
ought to be kept, to make it a season of mirth
and of gladness, of reunion for parted friends,
of merry family gatherings, of good living, geni-
al pleasure and joyous holiday; a season of free
dom from care, forgctfulness of business and re-
remembrance only of what it is good to remem-
ber. 1t is easy TO see that the spirit of Charles
Dickens Christmas-Christmas rs il ought to
be-has penetrated to this far-of coast and
tinged the celebration with some of his feeling.
Else why the streets and houses, stores, saloons
and markets green with forrest-aavored pine
boughs in substitution for the unattanabe hol-
ly and mistletoe? If Christ was the founder,
Charles Dickens was the Apostle of Christmas,
aud in tens of thousands of households his name
will be mentioned tomorrow with reyerent af-
fecton, and his picture will be entwincd with
wreaths and the words he put into the mouth OF
one of his Christmas characters-' Lord keep
my memory green BE faithfully answered. 1t

season. San Francisco is nobly liberal in such
matters, and if her sins were ten times greater
than they are angels would plead against the
earthquake for her salvation. Orphaned chill

lens, the wrecks of crime and time, the needy
in hospital and workhouse and asylum have all
been remembered, and it will not be the fault
Of kindly men and women if they do not enjoy
