How 1T WoRKs.-One Of the pleas against
prohibition or local option is that hotels for
the accommodation of travellers cannot be
supported without the aid Of bar. The
editor of the Christian Standard gives the
following refutation to the plea from obser-
vations on recent visit to Milville, one of
the places in the State of New Jersey where
no whisky has been sold for years:
"We were much interested in the tenn
perance principles that govern Millville,
and also the contiguous cities of Vineland
and Bridgeton. Each having about eight
thousand Inhabitants, has positively by the
votes of the people, excluded the sale of
Intoxicating drinks. 1t cost severe strug-
gle. When the act finally passed, and came
to be enforced, the hotel keepers assuming
to be kilt closed their houses and refused
to entertain travellers. They could not
afford to lodge man without a bart
would break them up. They could not
even feed horse; of course he needed his
grog, or ought to pay for some to enable
his landlord to furnish him oats. The
hard hearted people did not relent, but
cruelty opened their own houses and sta
bles for the accom- mediation of strangers
and horses. Forsooth the hotel men, see
ing their craft going from them flung open
their doors again, and thus betrayed their
insncerity.''

In Chicago, the Republican county ticket
was elected, by majorities ranging from
1000 to 10000. This is Republican gain
of $4,000 over the last election. The cleo

Republican victory.
The majority for Lewis, the Democratic

sB Elsewhere will be found the returns
in detail of the elections on Tuesday last,
by which it will be seen that the ranks of
that grand old party of good government
and freedom are rapidly closing up for the
great contest which is to take place next
year. Everywhere the lovers of liberty are
made glad as they read these returns, and
they ought to be, because during the little
time they have held power in several of the
States the Bourbons have shown themselves
totally unfit to be entrusted with the inter-
ests of the people. Since the Ohio election
the business of the country has been re-
ported as manifestly improving, and now
that it is settled beyond doubt that hon.
esty is to prevail in this country in spite of
infationists, communists and everything
else that is mean and dishonest, We may
expect there will be a gradual but sure ad-
vance to resumption and honest money.

Quite stir was made the day before
the election by the posting up Of a circular
by Clinton Mccullough, ESQ, Democrat
candidate for States Attorney, charging
that ]. J. Mccullough and d. Mcdaniel,
had ,earned the men in the employ of the
Mccullough Iron Works at North East
and Elkton not to vote for him, because
several years ago he had done his plain
duty. This, of course, was an electioneer-
ing trick. 1t was, however, soon followed
by a certificate from eighteen of the en-
ployees Of the works near Elkton, stating
that the charge was false in every partcu-
lar; and few hours later by another from
sixty-five of the employees at North East
to the same effect. This "plain duty "
matter, we believe, was duly ventilated at
the time by The Wing, and needs no further
notice here than to say that We believe the
States Attorney was the instrument OF
the Elkton Ring to vent its hatred against
an interest that the leaders Of the Demo-
crat party have always been opposed to-,
because works Of this kind bring into a
community class of men that cannot be
controlled by them like flock of sheep,
and whose industry is continual reproof
to the bummers and loafers whom these
leaders keep to do their dirty work.

TT The vote cast for the two candidates
for Sheriff in their own District, is con-
vincing proof of the moral strength of the
two gentlemen where they are best known,
for the contest between them seemed to
take that shape. 1t is also refutation OF
the charge that Mr. Boulder was the cause
of Mr.. Shippers defeat, as is being charged
by the Ring. That Mr.. Boulder could
justly have thrown his influence against
the Ring that treated him so outrageously
cannot be gainsayed; but he was the judge
of his own action in the matter, and that
action was certainly in favor of Mr.. Sim
pers, as his card, published before the cleo.
ton, abundantly proves. To the gentle
men who saw proper to act for themselves,
the people are indebted for Sheriff who
will be credit to the county.
