Tested By laoo?
Where are the millions of Chris

If all the Christians and sober
men who annually vote for poI1t'caS

vention held there composed of all

The Herald says:
THE convention was COMPOSED
OF whites and blacks, Republicans
and Democrats, to nominate a fu-
sion ticket for county officers. 1t
was noisy, numerous, excited, but
very earnest. There was nothing
silent about it, for everybody talk
ed, even if he had to talk while ev-
erybody else was talking. When
such bodies meet and do work the
work will tell. The convention did
It's work on sound principles. 1t
conceded full justice to both races
and gave the best evidence all
around of good faith. 1t has taken
a long step toward solving the in
tricate problem of race politics; it
deserves to win and will win"

The Ballot will Blot out Intem-
perance.

A. B. Richmond, in the preface
to his book "Intemperance the
Great Source of Crime" INDUCES
in the following sensible remarks ::
at has been my object, as far as
possible to present the subject in a
manner somewhat new, to travel
out of the beaten path of temper
ance lectures, and to convince my
readers, if possible, that prohibition
by law is the only means by which
the traffic in alcohol can be abol-
ished, and the country relieved of
the great curse Of intemperance.
| believe in the efficacy of the kind
words of moral suasion as a great
remedial agent; acknowledge even
the great force of the tufts of grass
of public opinion. Yet when the
boy remains obdurate and will not
come down from the tree, | have
an abiding faith in the virtue of
stones.
eff good, reverend men could
preach the license system out of
existence, I would be very glad that
they would do so. If the prayers of
Christian men and women could
extinguish the fires of the distiller-
les or smother the still-worm, I
would be glad were it so. But, ad-
hitting the truth stated in the
fable Of Esop, that the gods help
those who help themselves and
that it was the shoulder of the
teamster applied to the wheel of his
cart that moved the load from out
the mud of the highway, believe
that it will require the force of the
whole people, men and agomen, APP
piled at the ballot box, to effectual-
ly blot out of existence the great
curse of the country, the lars that H.
cease and permit the sale Of Alcohol as
q beUerage.
II deny the right Of the govern
ment to sell to one citizen the
privilege to tempt another to com
nit crime. [ doubt the policy of
those laws that seek to raise rev.
enue by the sale of that which de-
bases the people, is the prolific
source of crime and pauperism, and
costs the country annually thous-
and times more than the revenue
received therefrom. [ deny the
Justice Of those laws that on one
page of the statute book legalize
that which promotes crime and
makes criminals, and on the
next provides severe penalties to be
administered to those they have
tempted to transgress."
West Virginia freeman. (Parkersburg, W. Va.) 1881-1886, 1881-11-02
The SalOOn-Keeper a Poor Cit
zen.

The saloon-keeper may be the
devils best agent. but he is moor
citizen for the State. notwithstand.
ing his seemingly prosperous con-
dltion, his occasionally large prop
erty, and sometimes heavy taxes
paid into the State and county
treasury. Still some say, the sa-
loon-keeper is valuable acouisi-
ton to a city or town.
Did 1T ever occur to them that if
every hve-cent-piece that goes
for beer, and every dime that is ex-
pended on whisky were utilized
the amounts would buy and cult
vate a vast deal more of property
and OF more value, than the same
money expended by the saloon
Keeper would do?
The man who saves his money
for this purpose and does not waste
his energies in the cup will expend
his money for good lands and while
the drlnker is sleeping off the eff
tects of his drunk, the sober man
will be doubling the value of his
property.
In this broad country where land
Is cheap, square yard of land will
not cost more than four and five
cents. And every time one takes
drink of beer he takes a ward OF
land, and in this way they swallow
whole farms.
When man who drinks COM
plains of hard times and nothing
to do, do not sympathize with HIM,
for he does not deserve it. Let him
stop drinking and buy with his
whisky-money that with which he
can make an honest living. 1t ar
CUES for itself that the whisky-men,
from those who keep the saloons,
to those who, under the cover of
some other business, retail or whole
sale liquor, are the worst citizens
we have. They not only deprive
men of their senses and their mon
ely, but they beggar their families.
They make impossible the develop
ment of the country, so far as the
drinking men are concerned, and
although they may pay heavy taxes
they pauperize and thrust on the
community the care Of the families
of these men. OF the men them
selves they make violators of law
and criminals to be boarded and
tried at the expense of the State,
or possibly worse, murderers to be
executed
Saying nothing from a moral
standpoint, we can say, and say
safely, too, that the saloon-keeper
furnishes consumers enough to
more than balance all the benefits
from all the taxes they pay.
Then down with this traffic. We
do not want it in our midst, and the
sooner the law takes hold of the
ruinous business the better. Pros
perity we all want, and for univer-
sal prosperity we must have tenn
perance. Let each temperance man
do what he can in his own way,
and divine Providence will aid US
to accomplish the end we so much
desire. REFORMED.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

We are sorry to say that even the
Press. that presumes to and fought to
load in disseminating reliable news
and in advancing every worthy en-
terprise, is by no means free from
This instructive tendency to follow
after any person, thing or story that
has theassurance or daring to strike
ont as a leader, or as something nov
81 or startling.
Only let a journal that is looked
upon as a leader, publish anything
little out of the regular way, and
away 90 whole troops of country
newspapers in its track, without SO
much as inquiring whether the
bell-sheep in that case is crazy,
chased by dogs, or is simply run
ming for money, as is likely to be
the case.
A little while ago, some shrewd
gamblers had some newspaper pub
fish to the world the startling an
nouncement that the United States
Government had fixed the value of
silver coin with holes in, as follows:
dollars at IS cents, half-dollars at
s., quarters at Is, dimes at 5, and
halfdimes at 4 cents, and had made
it an otfense to pass them for more
and what did we see? Nearly ev-
cry country paper in the land took
up and repeated the ridiculous
statement to all it's readers, and in
many instances with no other COM
ment than to warn its patrons
against being cheated out of their
eyes by taking a good dollar for
more than IS cents.
A moments thought would have
convinced any sane person that a
dollars worth of silver was worth
more than 65 cents, in spite of the
Government, even though it had
turned fool and "proclamated" to
the contrary. But the story had
ltsetfect, and the fraud was success
iuI IN filing many pockets. And
now the newspapers are just as busy
taxing back the lie they circulated
and warning the people against its
effect.
