A SMALL TEMPERANCE WAR.-In the Standard
OF the 9th instant we find piece OF miscellany
giving n description Of the war made on whisky
by the women OF Federcktown, Ohio. On the
morning OF the 25th ultimo, the Baptist chufch
bell tolled, and about fifteen women, all armed
with hatchets, assembled. An organization
was soon effected, and they proceeded direct to
the nearest saloon. The bartender locked the
door and retired short distance. The women
battered in the doors of the saloon and knock
ed in the heads OF the whisky, wine and gin
barrels. Decanters and bottles were also enpt-
led and broken In less than ten minutes the
establishment was completely gutted. They
then visited another saloon. bat the proprietor
agreed to ship his goods away. As he only
sent two barrels away, the women went IN and
destroyed every bottle, decanter, jug and cask
in the place. The ladies then visited drug stores
(and bakery where beer is sold) and warned
the proprietors that, If their liquors were not
ou. OF town by Monday, they would tear them
out The proprietor OF the first saloon visited
has sworn out warrants for the arrest OF the
women.
We condemn the spirit of mob violence man
ifested by the women, because we firmly be-
heye ia law and order but down in our heart
we applaud their pluck-nothing more. Al
though bitterly opposed to the traffic. and al
though American citizens, they are denied the
citizens right OF expression OF opinion, the
ballot, ano they take other means to show their
opposition. They will be punished by laws
which they had no hand In making, although
the majority of the people OF the place are in
favor OF ousting the saloon-keepers. knowing
that they are amenabie TO one-sided laws, they
are foolish to place themselves in such an sttl-
tude as will subject them to prosecution. Their
recent raid will result in no permanent good
They will be prosecuted for their violence, and
and the saloons will occupy their places as be-
fore. The women Of Fredericktown Will find.
as DO the women OF all other towns, that they
are powerless to make any lasting change with
out the ballot There is but one way IN Re-
publican government to effect any reform, and
women know it. 1t is necessary to have ma
jorty OF votes, and the women must work to
secure that maj jority; the only way the requi-
site number OF votes can be obtained 10 stop
the whisky business is to enfranchlse the wo-
men, who WILL almost to unit, usestheir pow
er against 1t; therefore, it is the duty OF tenn
perance people to labor for woman's political
freedom. That Cnce secured, suppression OF
saloons and many other vicious resorts will
follow as a natural consequence. e.-Portland

it is worthy of remark that il any Republican
Senator, following the line Of his argument,
should proceed little further back in history,
