Democracy and Temperance.

Once upon time small boys were playing in
very soft dirt. Over the way short distance
discovered another boy coming towards them.
The party of small boys took large stone, and pac-
ing it in smooth place, that it would sit solid,
they covered it very nicely with the soft dust to the
depth of several inches. Thev then made another
pile, composed of dust. without any rock. When the
boy who discovered in the distance came the
crowd gathered around him, and invited him tn take
run and lump, and see how high he could kick the
dust being careful to select him the pile contain
ing the rock.
The newcomer politely declined to kick. He knew
the reputation of the other boys, and suspicious
of them Thereupon of the boys in order to show
how much harmless fun there in it, rushed at the
pile composed entirely of dust and kicked it high in
air. But the boy still declined to kick the other
pile.
Then the boys gathered around him with loud
taunts, shouting you're afeardr' you're afeard to
kick that little bit O. dust' But the boy knew that
kick meant a broken toe.
Now for the application of the story. The Demo-
cratic party have long been engaged in telling the
ton is, and that the Republicans ought to resolve
themselves into Prohibition party. But, although
the Republicans have struck rock bottom yet,
the temperance question, they would like very
much to know what the Democrats have ever done
for temperance. True, like the little boys they have
raised clouds of dust and attempted throw dust in
the of the Prohibitonists but they have studi
ously avoided the pile that had the rock in it!
