frage. The former dares to say that the
prohibitory law Of Vermont is, ''ln a great
" measure, worthless" and goes to work to
make it something else. Men, while be-
lieving the same thing, dare not say SO,
and when they become legislators dare not
act upon their convictions or preach and
vote as they practice. While all admit, TO
themselves, that the claw is, in great
measure, worthless" there is distinct and
well defined issue, relative thereto, before
the people as there has been before the
legislature.l That issue is, whether this
''worthless" law shall be made worth
something, after the idea of the speech re-
ferred to, or whether 1t shall be superseded
by stringent license law 1t is not
question of "free rum," but of the best
means of providing for moral evil, which,
in our judgment, should never have entered
politics. Do men range themselves,
when seeking or elected TO legislative
positions, on one or the other sides
of this issue in accordance with their moral
convictions? Let the action of the present
legislature answer The "worthless" pro-
hibitory law remains substantially un-
changed. The license law was defeated,
although what would have been its fate, If
the "absent and not voting had not
"dodgcd" and as, also. the other members
voted as their views OF right without re-
gard to policy dictated, it is impossible to
tell. The representative from Bennington
insinuated that some members of the house,
after voting against the license bill, went
"straightway out" and took their whisky
straight We doubt not, from the his
tory of the past that the insinuation is true
in fact. With timid men in the leg.
islaturc-and will we ever be free from
them-the worthless" law will still re.
main on our statute books. We have faitl
to believe that woman would act differ
emily. She would certainly practice what
she preached or not preach at all. This
question must he met and decided at some
time. 1t will not down at any ones bid
ding. 1t will be decided in accordance
with the popular will and public sentiment
Delays are dangerous. The question has
overwhelmed the eighty thousand republi
can majority of Massachusetts, and there
is no foretelling what may be its effect ii

event, it is time timid men stood from un

There is no change in the Arkansas siua-

confident that the president will flnall de-

tions the Smith faction have no reasolble
foundation for their expections. tdge
Wiltshire, the representative of the ,ti-
Smith faction, very positively states lat
he has assurances which show thatihe
president will do nothing to encourag'he
Smith movement. The Representative of
Smith, however, claim that they hain-

members OF the investigating comDtee

attorney general that they favor the sith
side, and that the president will douess
ultimately accept their views. Judg'o-

A New Democratic Project.

An army officer who has spent the sum
mer in the South, and has returned u
Washington, confirms the belief that tn
successes of the democratic party in 1870
will be followed by an attempt to reimburs
the rebels for their losses caused by Unn
troops. This officer states that eyerywnH

with these losses are now engaged in cd

which they intend to present should the

officer was himself questioned as to thtde-

ment was made that the purport OF tese
inquiries was to obtain information wiEh
might be serviceable in the future proeeu-
ton of these claims.

The Greenfield (AIass.) Courier says
civilian Gnaan, well-known here as an
actioneer for many years, died in Spring
field recently. He purchased a quantity
of whiskey at saloon in that city, drank
over pint in few moments, and died
almost Immediately. Guinan was native
of Canada, enlisted in the Second Vermont
regiment as sergeant-major, May 90, 1861,
and was discharged on account of wounds,
September 80, of the same year. He moved
to Springfield year or more ago, where
he left wife and children. He pawned a
looking glass to buy the whisky with,
which was sold to him by Gum g. Co. His
wife followed HIM to the saloon and re-
quested the keepers not to sell liquor to
him. They took her by the arm, and, tell
ing her it was no place for her, walked her
out of the saloon, and sold the liquor to
her husband which killed him."
