ADAIR LIQUOR LAW.

Saturday evening last in the Senate
the question of amending the Adair
liquor law was up. This is the action
taken as given in the Cleveland
Leader, and it leaves the law as it
now stands until at least January,
1873, to which time the legislature
adjourned:
Mr.. Young told what he knew
about lager and whisky.
Mr.. Wales read an extract from a
Dutch poem which was very funny.
and, after his effort, moved to lay it
on the table.
The motion was lost by Is to II.
Mr.. Thompson spoke in favor of the
amendment.
Mr.. Beavis made little speech on
the temperance question, and wanted
something done to prevent liquor
dealers from being blaekmailed. He
was very severe on the bad women of
Cleveland.
Mr.. Stimson moved the previous
question, which motion was voted
down, the whisky for once being in
the majority.
Mr.. Easement got the floor, and
poured iutO the whisky camp some
red hot shot; said the movement to
amend the law was dodge to catch
the German vote. He was for the
law, and the fact that the whisky
trade was on the decline convinced
him that the law was good one, and
he was glad that whisky dealers were
closing up their shops and leaving the
State. He thanked God, and wanted
them to go to some other place. Mr..
Holden asked him If he was willing
to submit the question to a vote ofthe
people. He answered that he was.
Mcdowell followed him and spoke
for modification. He favored a change
not because he loved the whisky sell
Ter; he thought that a monstfous call
ing, not for political capital, but be-
cause he thought it wrong and unjust
to the liquer men, whom he thought
had rights. He thought that drunk
enness was increasing under the law.
Mr.. Easement asked him, if that
was the case, why it was that the re-
tail men were closing up their shops ? /
In reply, he said it was well-knOwn
that a quart of whisky would make o
lQdu uIuuhcI Iudu u SldSS.
Mr.. Easement laughed, and said that 1
would be good thing for the retail |
dealer. Schiff followed, and wanted to .
know why. if the Adair law was a .
good one, that bill was not intrOduc-
ed to close up the distilleries? II was
because they were towards and afraid |
to do so, because it would take away
thousands of supporters from the
temperance party. He thought shere
was a majority of senators who did .
not think it a crime to drink wine, /
beer, etc. The law gave a certain |
class an opportunity to prey on the |
property of others, and it was running |
the business of men who had invested |
their capital in the manufacture of
beer, etc.
He wanted every man to go upon |
the record. If his constituents would |
not support him he would resign.
Mr.. Boesel followed in a brief and
broken speech, showing what a source
of revenue the manufacture and con-
sumption of beer and such was to the
country, and of course his conclusions
were that these interests should be
protected.
Mr.. Stimson then moved to lay the
bill and the amendments upon the
table. The motion was carried by L
to 16.

OBITUARY..


On Sabbath, April l4th, in Bloom Town
ship, a dreadful accident occurred at the
house OF Alanson Owen, and which cast a
gloom over the entire neighborhoOd. Mrs.
Mary Slaughter, the mother OF Mrs. owen
was so badly burned that death ensued in
30 hours.
Mother Slaughter had been at work about
the stove, and her clothes caught fire and
burned nearly all on from her person
above her waist. Medical aid was
Immediately summoned and everything
was done for her that affection or
kindness could suggest. It is remarlza-
BILE and fortunate, that nOtwithstand-
ing the extent of the injury, she SEEM
ed TO be conscious of but little pain
She had the full use of her bodily and men
tai faculties all the while, and complained
Of nothing but a burning thirst, and drank
freely of cold water till she expired. She
was very calm and deliberate all the time.
The deceased was over eighty years old,
but retained her bodily powers and menta
faculties remarkably we'll. She was born
in Yates Co., N. Y, and removed to Bloom
with her husband and family at an early
day. Father Slaughter Edied some % years
since.
The subject of this notice has enjoyed n
hope in the Savior for many years; for the
last two years she has been associated with
the Free win Baptists of this place.
Although the circumstances of her deaeh
were truly appalling to her friends, yet
death had ne terrors for her. She passed
away calmly and peacefully at about half
past six O'Clock, P. NJ. April 18th. In the
morning before the accident occurred, as it
was the day following the great confagra-.
ton in THIN, she remarked to her daughter.
Mrs. owen, s'The fire is doing its work. An
little did she think in a few hours she would
a victim ofthc destroying element. Just be-
fore she triumphed over the last enemy,
she said, "Tell all the children who have
hope in Christ TO be faithful, and all those
who have not sought the Savior to seek
Him and meet me in heaven" May that
last and dying request Of that sainted moth
er be realized in the salvation Of that large
family of mourning friends.
The funeral services were attended April
10th, at o'clock, P NJ, text: Whereas ye
know not what shall be on the morrow"

/ thpV are business men nevertheless,
their line being photography in all
its branches. Eighteen years ago,
D, C. Tunison established his gallery
here. He was by no means tyrO in
business, having then had an expert
ence Of nearly twenty years, and from
the day his gallery was thrown open
TO the public, he has met with pat
ronage not only gratifying, but COM
mensurate with the character Of the
gallery. The firm has been in opera
ton about ten years. o. B. Tunison,
the junior proprietor, is, like bis father,
a thorough master of the photograph
ic srt. To convince one of their real
artistic ability survey of their apart
ments is sufficient, and there is no
place in Tifin more worth a visit
than this. Nothing pertaining to
the business is neglected. From a
life size photo or oil painting, to the
merest ''gem"-in fact anything in
their line is within their capacity to
execute. Their business is an old es-
tablished one, which has been based
upon real merit, and is one of The in
stitutions of our city.

about becoming Democratic candidate for

light Of recent events it is interesting, as it
must be consoling TO our Democratic

nation to correct all abuses the moment
they are known to exist, and that in the
only way they can be corrected, by the
prompt removal Of unfaithful officers, and
the putting Of honest men in their places.
We have already shown how small a per
cent. of the public revenues have been lost
by reason of dishonest officials during
General Grants administration. 1t does
not amount to the one-eighteenth Of one
per cent. Of the whole amount actually col.
lected and paid into the public, treasury.
We challenge our contemporaries to put
the present Administration to the severest
test of scrutiny on this head, and contrast
it with any previous one in the last
thirty years, to find smaller percentage
of loss than the country has suffered under
General Grants supervision Of the civil
service. The honest and efficient collec-
ton of the public revenues under his adj
minstration, as contrasted with the lax,
not to say corrupt performance Of the same
branch Of duty under President johnson,
amounts to almost an entire revolution in
the financial policy and management of the
country. Let the tree be Judged by its
fruits and let this partisan cry Of corrup-
ton find some higher inspiration for express
sion than that which lies simply in thegreed
Of office, and the passion to dispense public
spoils. Jtsr-r s,fq,as5g
