THAT LIE ONCE MORE.


Not only did the Republican party,
unaided by the Democrats, crush out
the notwithstanding to Senator
Hoar-but that party was equally sue
cessful in abolishing slavery, without
anv assistonce from Democrats.
1t ought not to be necessary to
brand these statements as utterly and
absurdly false. To every intelligent
mind they bear abundant evidence of
their falsity. But for the courage and
patriotism of Democrats, the Union
would have been destroyed inevitably.
In the rank and file of the Union
armies, there were more Democrats
than Republicans.
1t was part cularly noticeable that
those Republican leaders who had
been most active in fomenting strife
and stirring up the war feeling were
never seen within range Of Confederate
bullets, shot or shell. When the war
which they had aided in precipitating
on the country at last burst upon us,
those howlers and shriekers were the
mildest hammered men on the CONT
nent. The preservation of their corpo-
real integrity and the accumulation of
riches coined from the blood and
agony of their fellow-citizens, were the
two objects to which their attention
was devoted with such zeal and energy
Us could not fail of success.
Democrats who had done all in
their power to avert the awful calami-
ty of civil war accepted the issue when
it could no longer be put off. They
took up arms promptly, more in sor-
row than in anger, but with deter
mination to defend the Union and put
down the rebellion. From the incep-
ton to the close of the long struggle
there was not an hour when they fall
tered, there was not Il battlefield that
was not stained with their blood. In
the cabinet, in the Capitol and in the
army, in all places where intelligence
and patriotism were required, Demo-
Gratis were not wanting.
Mr.. Hoar and his associates know
this, and they know that the man who
declares that the Republican party
crushed the rebellion tells n lie-an
infamous lie, because it is villainous
libel on the hoHored dead.
The abolition of slavery was an in
cident of the war, and not its object.
Mr.. Lincoln and the leaders of his
party most earnestly disavowed any
snch purpose. He said that if he
could save the Union with slavery, he
would do it. His party saidahe same.
But slavery perished as n result of
the war, in which Democrats bore as
conspicuous and honorable part as
their Republican opponents. And hav-
ing been thus destroyed, the Republi-
can party can no more claim to have
abolished it than to have fought all
the battles without Democratic sympa-
thy or aid.
Mr.. Hoar is not the first man who
has put forth these false assertions.
They have been repeated thousands of
times in all possible shapes and on
every conceivable occasion. 1t is time
to hurl back such callmmes in the
faces of their inventors. A Senator
has no more right to utter ISLANDERS
than a cobbler. In attempting to APP
propriate to his party all the honor,
all the toll, the suffering and the sac
rifces made by the men of the North
during those years of trial and con-
fict Mr.. Hoar seeks to rob both the
living and the dead.

The License Question,

EditOr Sdr:-There Is at present renewed
agitation amongst our temperance brethren,
which in its way is well enough; but Ia their
zeal they seem to overlook one OF the greatest
evils ana main causes or fniemperance in our
midst, VIZ: certain class or So-caIed whole
sale liquor grocery stores. Why should nor
these places be compelled, before they get
license, TO OBTAIN the signatures and permission
OF the neighbCrs, On whom in most cases they
lnnict one or the greatest GutsanceS IN exist
ence? 1t is there where much drunkenness and
crime is started, where the dangerous chdrac-
tiers congTegate, and get their whisky. There
go besides many poor laboring men under the
pretence to buy groceries, but IN reality to drink
up Their hard-earRed wages, so that nothing Is
left for their starving families, for whom as a
consequence the District and general govern
ment have to provide every winter. Either no
liquor license should be given to this kind OF
stores, or II should be made as high or higher
than that OF regular and decently Kept saloons;
and under no circumstances without the per-
NIT and signatures Of the neighbors. as the So
called wholesale license is In most cases
nothing but sham and means to plant these
nulSances In the midst OF the poor and ignorant
people; buy barrel or the worst kind of
whisky and retail IL TO them secretly by the
drink, day and night, Sunday not excepted.

Saving an Hours Sleep.
A BLOOMFIELD MANS INVENTION WHICH HE THINKS
MIGHT PREVENT SOME DIVORCES

A BLOOMFIELD MANS INVENTION WHICH HE THINKS
MIGHT PREVENT SOME DIVORCES.
A man living near Bloomfield N. j., has con-
trived an arrangement by the use Of which he
is enabled to get an hour or more of extra sleep
Ia the morning, and In other ways he finds 1t of
great benefit. In many ways it takes the place
Of a domestic servant. The gentleman has
thought out and put into practical working an
idea that occurred to him about a year ago. He
is awakened In the morning by shrin whistle
He at once gets out OF bed, for he knows what
ali is ready for him " to get get breakfast fast.
He dresses aud goes into the kitchen,
and there he finds a bright, fresh fire,
teak, ttle full of boiling water, and other con-
this Is accomplished by means OF an alarm
clock with weights, piece Of wire, sheet or
sandpaper, and some matches. Paper, wood
stove, and teakettle filled with water, and
having tiny whistle fitted into the nozzle of
the kettle Is placed on the stove. By setting
time he wishes. When the alarm in the clock
goes OF, weight falls and hits the wire the
wire moves and scrapes the matches fastened
to It on the sandpaper; the matches light the
coal, and soon fire is under way. In a little
while the water In the teakettle boils, and then
the tiny whistle gives the note of warning that
everything is ready and 1t is time to get up.
Simple thing, and yet what comfort 1t is
the inventor says. "Yhere is no getting up for
me now an hour before breakfast, losing that
amount OF sleep, and then waiting around for
breakfast. The arrangement costs next to
nothing and 1t is as Trustworthy as anything
In this world. have not had it patented yet.
Some persons advise me to, and perhaps may.
haven't any for sale; got it up entirely for my
own comfort and convenience, and It has more
than repaid me already. But just think, II 1t
were In general use 1T would save many hard
words and do away with considerable domestic
unhspptDess among poor people. Doubtless it
might have tendency to make better feeling
between some men and their wives by settling
the vexing question as to who should get up ia
the morning and build the fire. Out of this
question alone many divorce suits grow. and
this arrangement would prevent them"
