be respected and although temporari-
Fly thwarted, it must finally pre-
vail. In its expression the poor man
as we'll as the rich has rightful
voice. He breathes the air OF free in
stitutions and cherishes the traditions
of the republic, and his just demands
cannot be safely disregarded, nor can
he be enslaved without its overthrow
The greed of permanently organized
cupidity cannot permanently harm
him, because democracy means equal
Laws. To the millions crushed by pov-
erty it means a home and bread and
education, and fair play in the race of
life ; i. repudiates the maxim that
capital should own labor, and it wages
war against every form of aristocracy
ana privilege because it places human
ity before property, and believes ia the

address to TIL, parry tllil of con
li'tcnt hope us regards tl,n out-

the late State election does not
insure that State for Garfield in
November. But IN the CONTRA
ry Mr.. English thinks the ma
.joriy for Porter can he over
come and the electoral vote Sc
cured for Hancock. The COM
mittee advises every Democrat
to work faithfully to bring out
a full party vote in every state
and to consider nothing us as
sured. And in this connection
we would say that we regret to
see the apathy Of our own pco-
pie. OF course we have never
advocated the necessity OF Il
vigorous campaign, but would
it not be well for the Parish
Committee to meet sometimes
and attend to small matters
which are requisite at every Ell
ection. a Maine Still Hunt
would do no harm. at is not

OPIUM EATING IN CHICAGO.
From the Chicago Time,

Under Pacific hall, at the corner of
Clark and VanBuren, is basement used
as an opium den, which would not do
discredit to the Chinese quarter of San
Francisco. 1t was formerly run by an
old Mengolian medicine man, who ac-
cumulated a few thousand In the bust
ness and then lit out for his celestial
home. Some laundry fiends conduct the
present, and If Ingersoll wants good
illustration of an earthly hell, he should
not fail to visit that basement. The po-
lice broke into the den yesterday morn
ing, and surprised large party from a
State street dive, who contemplated pic
nicking on the deadly narcotic. Some
were sprawling on the floor, and others
had rolled into dirty hunks, and all were
contemplating a glorious orgie, when
their bright dreams were suddenly shat
tered by the entrance of a squad of blue
coats. After a prelude of cursing In
pigeon English and State street billings
gate, the opium eaters were brought
before Justic Wallace, who held a recep,
ton at the armory There were four fe-
males, prominent among whom was
Mary Jane Kerwin, whose moral depra-
witty is equaled only by her muscular
power, and who is consequently terror
to policemen. The men were blear-eyed,
degraded wretches, whose proper places
during the remainder of their lives
would be in the ante-room of Hades. All
members of the disreputable party were
fined $40 each, and upwards. Only few
could liquidate their debt to the city and
those who did went forth to resume their
debauch.
Careful inquiry has developed the fact
that number of apparently respectable
citizens patronize the horrible Clark

A GREENBACK- DEMOCRATIC
LIE NAILED

Commonwealth: Rev d. p. Mitchell,
the Greenback nominee for congress in
the third district, and Mr.. Mcdonald, the
Democratic nominee, are making false
statements on The stump in relation TO
the acts of Hon. Thomas Ryan They
say that he prevented the passage of the
bill-which requires hOmesteaders To pub
lish in SOME paper n notice of the time
they propose to prove mp their claims.
II so happens that the bill in question
was senate bill, was prepared by the
secretary of the interior, To, as he said,
prevent fraud. 1t passed the senate and
went to the speakers table in the house
just previous TO adjournment. Mr.. Ry-
an was not q member of the committee
on public lands in the 45th congress st
the time the bill passed. just pre-
vious to it being called up from the
speakers table. he had got two of his
own bills off the table and passed them,
and followed them to the enrolling COM
mittee, and was out of the house at the
time the publication bill was taken up
and passed. He neither voted for OF
against it, and knew nothing about it till
afler it passed Since that time he has
tried to get it repealed, because hS
thought that it put too much expense
on the settlers He said the secretary Of
the interior drew up the bill. in the be
lief that it would correct growing evil
Il has corrected the evil. but at too mucl
expense to the settler, is the belief o
Mr.. Ryan.
1t is hardly worth while to notice al
the lies that are being told, but this ma,
as well be set down upon.
