Ram, Debt and LdlC

We have heretofore made it plain
to our readers that these luxuries ~
could only be INDUCED in by people
with fortune Of at least a million.
And with that capital to start with
bankruptcy of character and peace,
as well as pocket, was not distant
or uncertain result to those who in
dulged their taste in that direction.
1t seems more than strange that
while so many have wrecked upon
one if not all these rocks and left
their experience of shame written in
such palpable facts to warn and adj
monish all who have not yet EN-.
barked on life's perilous voyage, yet
spite of all that, so many should take
the same risks with such absolute
certainty of utter and shameful dis
aSter.
The man who saw his neighbor
buried but few days since not only
in a pauper's, but in a drunkard'S
grave, turns with willing steps to-
day into saloon, takes his social
drink, contributes his dirty story to
the entertainment of the crowd
therein, and never seems to guess
that this is his 'first step" in the
way that "leads to death and hell"
When man finds himself willingly
turning into one of these doggeries
to take a drink" he may accept it
as fact that it is high time that he
has resolved in his heart never more
to enter place so unclean.
So too, as to debt. When a man
or woman for women share this
transgression,) find that they are
willingly and deliberately accumu-
latipg debt against themselves and
having more desire to get the
goods than to pay for them. they
may know that they are nearing
quicksands and perils, for they are
loosing their hold upon their indie
pendence and their peace, and it re-
quires no prophets vision to discern
in the distance the red flag of the
constable. Not unfrequently the debt
is the result of drink, and the con-
stables sale is the closing up of a
sad chapter of happiness destroyed
and peace murdered. Then the de-
moralization has been one of longer
and sadder and more shameful dis
tress, because it has brought all these
ills to tender wife and children, and
how shall anyone answer to his God
for the cruelty he thus infiicts upon
those whom he has sworn to love and
honor? What perjury so wicked as
this, what crime so rev olting and UNI
natural? In the light of such his
tory as this, that finds its parallel in
every district in our county, how
powerful becomes the appeal of all
that is RESPECTABLE in our nature, to
avoid rum and debt. Nor ought any
man try to excuse himself with the
old lie, "the woman she did tempt"
No woman worthy the name ever
tempted a man to his ruin with
drink. Women revolt at a beastly
man, and if he will listen to her
pleadings ne man will ever be the
slaye of this degrading appetite,
and no woman will ever, we believe,
encourage her husband to go to his
ruin by debts. She will endure pri-
walton willingly, sooner than see her
husband perplexed and annoyed by
claims he cannot pay. Too often the
husband peglects or avoids telling
his wife what troubles beset him, and
because of this want of confidence on
his part they drift into trouble and
distress that would be averted did he
frankly tell Of his straits. Every

The Vermont Republican conven
ton last week nominated Col. Red
field Proctor for Governor. The
platform briefly reaffirms the prin-
ciples of the party, approves the
general course of President Hayes
administration, and rejoices that
though differences may exist as to its
policy, yet that the Executive and
the Republicans in Congress are dis
posed to suffer no divisions, and con-
dennis the revolutionary measure of
the Democratic House of Representa-
tives to investigate part only of the
facts pertaining to the Presidential
election. The resolutions also de-
clare that the ATTEMPT to reopen the
question after it has been lawfully
and justly closed is detrimental to the
prosperity and perilous to the peace
ofthe country, and therefore deserves
the apprehension of all good citizens.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1878-06-01
President Hayes Title to his Office
UNDINE.

1t would be amusing, if not for the
gravity of the interests involved, to
read the discussions now going on
through the columns of a Baltimore
paper which processes to give light
to all ; to witness the attempts of the
proprietors of that paper to extricate
themselves from the natural results
of their own teachings. With the
greatest vehemeEce this paper de.
clares that it favors a most thorough
aid searching investigation into all
I the facts connected with the counting
of the electoral vote, but is equally
positive that the result of this inves-
tigation cannot effect Mr.. Hayes
title, nor can the decisions of the
Electoral Commission be annulled.
1t appears, therefore no wonder, they
are annoyed by frequent correspon-
pence from intelligent readers, who
are utterly at loss to discover any
practical results, unless it be to ac-
complish what that paper processes to
oppose-the removal of President
Hayes. 1t is evident that few have
been blinded by the sophistry re-
ferred to. Intelligent readers fully
comprehend the fact that, if the adop-
ton of the Potter resolution meant
to aonopn p1iSb anNy prao ioal rocitlt If
is the unseating of the President /;
otherwise it is a useless waste of time
and money, cruel, causeless agita-
ton of a subject which the peace of
the country requires should be left
where the best and ablest of both
parties, with the approval of a ma
jority of the Supreme Court, have de-
cided it shall remain. Most people
prefer the bold, open utterances of
Judge Blair to the covert course
above referred to. The country I'M
derStands what he desires there is
no concealment of his purpose. Rev.
olution is his watchword. Revolu-
ton was tried eighteen years ago at
the mouth of the cannon and failed.
Our ceuntrymen listened to the in
sidous teachings of demagogues, and
attempted to set aside the solemn act
of the people in the election of a
citizen who was obnoxious to them.
War with its desolating curse was
the result. An attempt is now made
to do precisely the same thing, only
in different way. Ali good citizens,
irrespective of parties, are deeply in
terested in the suppression of this
mischievous scheme. The business
interest requires peace and stability.
Capital will not leave its hiding places
while this ghost of disorder and strife
is stalking abroad in our land. Labor
is clamoring for employment. NJ
merous needed improvements could
be projected and successfully COM
pleted at this time by Congress,
which would materially relieve the
distress of the working classes. Let
the solid substantial men of the ma
ton speak out and bid these marplots
to the rear. Mr.. Hayes is the law
fully declared President of the United
States by the act of tribunal, from
which there is no appeal, except
through revolution and bloodshed.
This is republic of law and order.
Constitutional Government must and
will be maintained. -BdhO. Herald.

Can any one doubt the patriotism
Of the Democrats ? They deliberate
ly inaugurate an era of political ex-
element that will paralyze trade and
PROSTATE business, and end, if they
are successful, in revolution. This is
Democratic patriotism.
