SALOONS AND GAMBLING.

The attempt to pass an ordinance requiring
Ell saloons il the city to be closed at midnight
. is uow regarded as a failure. Al the last meet
ing OF the Common Council, after further &C.
, bate Of an acrid character, motion to post
! pone for another fortnight prevailed By close
vote The ordinance, therefore, lies upon the
! table, and will continue to lie tesere-a dead
, 1etter-for want OF sufficient support to give it
vitality. And all this because the Common
Council is composed largely Of petty pot-housc
politicians OF both parties,-men who care more
for the influence OF saloon proprietors and their
hummer patrons Than foz the good will Of order
loving constituents VINO bear the hrunt OF taxi
ton mud in reality put them into the positions
thcy OCCUPY. But tic OCCASION of this prefer
euce is perceptible. The hummer element can
be used to advantage at caucuscs, which are
rarely attended in force br thosc most directly
interested, and the good people usnai'y support
the nominees without protest. For this reason
the hummer element rules in everything per-
tanning to legislation that is calculated to tres
pass upon its domain.
In close alliance with saloons are the gamblers
and eamblng-houses- During the progress OF
the trial OF the Bierbach boys for having robbed
Inupenhcimer, District~Attorney Nckenncy
remarked with considerable emphasis that
there is not at the present time

said, his intention, with the cooperation of
houses closed,-at least during his term Of otijcc-

From the Philadelphia Chronicle Herald (Dem.>
There is another kind of bulldozing in
another section, and this the organs can
net SO safely be left to deal with. Need
we say that the tender reference is to the
land Of "Culchah," beneath the shadow of
Faneull Hall. We hope that our readers
have carefully followed the testimony be-
fore Senator Wallace's committee, for it
confirms under oath all that Ben Butler
has charged against the bulldozing employ
ers of Massachusetts. Werkmen have
testified that they were forbidden to vote
for Butler; that many of those who did
vote for him were dismissed and driven
from their houses, which were owned by
the employers; and that agents of the
employers stood at the polls to see how
operatives voted. One witness, who now
resides in Connecticut, swore that his
whole family had been driven out of the
Monehaug corporation factory because he
voted for Butler, and that they had to
leave the state because they would have
been black listed" all over it, Exon
gresham Thayer, democrat, was not per-
mitted TO speak in apubIic hall belonging
to the corporation and he held forth in q
barn. A Republican witness says there
are ten thousand voters in Boston-the
moral and intellectual universe-"who can
| be, and probably are, influenced through
subsidized liquor saloons"

The same spirit of barbarity and lawless-
ness which causes her to play the part of
highwayman and assassin among the
weaker nations within her reach, manifests
itself in her treatment of her own citizens.
TheImurder.of Circassia asia nation, and the
atrocities wreaked upon unhappy Poland,
are the ct counterpart of the domestic
brutalities of the knout, the execution, and
the Punishment to Siberian wastes. 1t was
this nation which, only three years ago,
entered into causeless war for the sake
of the sacred Cross" thus to all common
forms Of baseness adding the browning
baseness Of rank hypocrisy. It is little
wonder that Russia. of all modern nations
is the most hated and feared abroad, or
that her cruelties and tyranny at home are
SO often answered by the assassin's dagger
and the torch Of the Nihilist. There was
never nation with such magnificent op,
portunities for aiding in the work of civili'
cation that has proved its more persisten
and implacable foe.

Truth IS Mighty.

AS the little leaven hid in the mea-
sure Of meal, made all leaven, so truth
gradually overcomes all doubt and dis
belief. When DR.. Pierce, of Buffalo,
N. Y, announced that his Fayorite
Prescription would positively cue
the many diseases and weaknesses PEI
culiar to women. some doubted, and
confined to employ the harsh and
caustic local treatment. But the
mighty truth gradually became ack-
nowledged. Thousands of ladies who
had uselessly undergone untold tor
lures at the hands of different physi-
clans, employed the Favorite Prescrip-
ton, and were speedily cured. Many
physicians now prescribe it i'll their
practice. So sanguine is DIR, Pierce OF
of its power to cure, that he now sells
it through druggists under positive
guarantee.

The Springfield, (Mass.) RepubIica,

The Springfield, (Mass.) Republican
says: There is no use trying to deny
the facts brought out before the Wallace
senatorial investigating committee, even If
we desired to deny them. which we do
not. The plain, unvarnished truth stands
out boldly in evidence, that some of our
profesSedly best men, who are prominent
manufacturers, practically forbid their
employees from exercising the right of SUI
frage, free from interference. 1t is dis
graceful state of affairs, but we are forced
to the admission that the federal super
visors were employed not to keep peace at
the polls, bat to keep anti republican
voters away; that these supervisors in
stead of preventing fraud, encouraged ii
by aiding to prosecute all opposed to the
Republican candidates. 1t is fact de-
veloped by Senator Wallacs's committee
that no matter who offered a Republican
ballot, it was accepted and no questions
asked. Whereas, some of the best mer
socially and morally, and all others who
were at all active in opposition to the re-
publican party, were carefully watched anc
their every move logged by paid spoilers,
The Republican tells only half the story
but it is enough to show how unfairly thu
supervisors law works, and to prove wha
hassalways been contended by its oppo
nents that it was used for bipartisan pur
poses. The republicans can go on denying
the charge, but the fact remains to prov
