HARRIErT BEEcHER Stowe lost all
her orange crop in Florida by frost
this year. After Harriet wrote all the
mean things she could think about

A. ". Plat, Esq, of New York
city, representing the Evansville
and Dayton railway enterprise, was
in Eaton last week and positively
assured parties here that the line
would be run through Eaton. Of
course it will, because it is the
cheapest and would strike points
that would yield a great income to
the road.

Here is another black eye for pro-
hibition. The Detroit Post publish
es figures to show that there
have been many less arrests for
drunkenness and crimes growing out
of liquor-drinking and street drunk
enness in that city during five years
past, years under the license law,
than there were during the preced-
ing five years under stringent pro-
hibitory law. To this good result
must be added a ven of $780,
600, 600, which in Ohio, if a similar
law were to go into effect, would be
more than doubled.

"The time may come when our
country will be filed with an army
of pensioners, always the friends of
arbitrary power. The time will come
when we shall have a numerous host
of officers, civil and military, in eve
ry department. of the Government,
spread over our immense territory,
looking up to the President as the
source of power and emoluments.
The time will come when luxury and
extravaganza will Danish from our
country every species of republican
virtue; and the time will come, |
fear, when this Senate will be no
more than a shadow of what it was
intended to be by those who framed
our constitution; when it shall be no
check on the Executive; when it
shall be as insignificant as the boast
ed Senate of Rome in the time of
Tiberius. The whole patronage of
the Government will center in the
President, and that patronage, under
our present system of choosing cleo
tors, will become a machine of ire
sistible power. The management Of
this power will become a science.
He will be deemed the greatest poll
tician and the ablest minister who
can, with given patronage, produce
the greatest effect. The force Of
this power will be applied to effect
the purposes of ambition, with as
much economy and skill as water is
applied to the wheel, or that of steam
to the engine"
Reader doesn't this sound like
the voice of prophecy? These words
were uttered by Mahlon Dickerson
in the United States Senate in 1919
sixty years ago. He foresaE the

ly described.
DOM PIGTT has retired from the
control of the Washington city Cap
ital, and as he lays down the pen
thus discourses, no doubt truthfully,
of the Federal Government:
at is my boast that l have done
more to fetch this Government into
contempt than all the subsidized
pens and presses over the land. en-
gagged in its support.
"This is saying much, but not more
than l deserve. For these ten years,
at the threshold of the Executive
Mansion, that shelters a despotism
more dreary in its oarse aggres
sions than any in Europe, and under
the shadow of a dome that covers a
den of thieves, l have purctured
shams, exposed villains and held i'm
becility up to ridicule, regardless of
the threats, assaults, ISLANDERS and
abuse of the sufferers.
