Fearing that my many opponents

space 10 reply to few points OF theirs,
and TO let my friend Hume know
that he still has an opponent who
has survived that awful yarn about
the good lady; also tho gentleman
who signs himself "Prohibition, !"
who places great stress ON our Sunday
law. As TO laws compelling the alb
servance OF Sunday as a Sabbath
blush 10 think that such a bigoted
relic of priestcraft furnishes the fair
escutcheons of any of our states.

The dispatches tell US that one fea-
ture of the recent election in Ohio is
Democratic gains in Republican coun-
ties, and vice versa. This is attributed
to the fact that in several Republican
counties the church and temperance
are very strong, and Republicans
scratehel Foster or account of the
failure Of the legislature last winter to
give additional liquor legislation. The
legislature attempted to give this legis-
lation, but cou'd not agree on account
of the variety plans offered. Fosters
gain in Democratic counties is attribn-
ted to Bookwalter's too brief connection
With the Democratic party to poll a
vote in those counties, and stronger
poll of Republican votes there than IN
reliable E spuhliean counties is deemed
IN political circles to have been Fosters

IRIS all very well TO say that Blaine
Is SO a mixed mp with the star-route
stealing that the Arthur administration
is surs to push the prosecution of tile
ringsters with nnrelenting vigor, but it
will doubtless be found in the ultimate
result thrt no wing of the Republican
party is more inexrricably involved in
tlis hugs steal than that which Presi-
dent Arthur is supposed to represent.
The fact of the matter Is that the Re-
pnblican party has never divided itself
up into wings when there has been any
stealing going on, and its thieying
rings have always represented the party
at large. The party is never more
harmonious than when it is stealing.
