ARE We READY?
REV. F. s. STEIN ON THE QUESTION OF
ENAcT1Ne, Now. A PRoHIBIToRY
LIQUOR LAW.

Rev. F. s. Stein. Of Milwaukee, is
known to the people of Kenosha as one
of the most Jealous and faithful tenn.
perance workers in the state. In a lee.
ture in which the right of prohibition
is ably sustained, and the blessings
which come from it are wildly pictured
he gives his views on the question of
enacting prohibitory law at the pres
ent time. Our report is taken from
the Milwaukee Sentinel:
but are we ready for prohibitory
law in this Stat. ? I think not. If
such a law were offered as cunstitu.
tional amendment within the next
year or two 1t would certainly be voted
down. And without a strong majority
to back 1t, prohibitory law would
never be enforced even if enacted.
There is a large foreign element in
this State that does not easily take to
such laws. Many of them have mis-
taken ideas of this free country" To
some of them liberty means license,
freedom to do as they please without
regard to the public good. This ele-
ment must be more thoroughly assimi-
lated to American ideas before they
can be rallied in support Of such laws.
The liquor traffic has an unusually
strong hold upon the business and po-
litical interests of the State. And they
will not readily yield.
Christian people are not sufficiently
interested in this question.
Temperance people do net act united
~ nor always wisely.
Under these circumstances it would
simply be fatal to the temperance cause
to submit the law to the people now.
They would surely defeat it and thus
cause serious reaction against the tenn
perance cause.
a great deal of preliminary work
must be done before we can reasonably
hope for the enactment of prohibitory
law. The masses must be enlightened
and aroused on the question. All tenn
perance people in the church and out
must work unitedly and zealously.
While the liquor traffic is nerved for
the conflict by the potency of the al
mighty dollar, let us engage in this
warfare in the spirit of patriotism and
true philanthropy"

EELEGOVERNMENT.

There are peculiarities about the
practical workings of a system of self
government calculated to excite both
the curiosity and the serious thought
Of the philosophically inclined citizen.
Our system IS based on the theory, or
on the principle, if that term Is prefer.
able, that the people ought to govern.
That they have the right to govern is
not doubted; that they do not govern
is becoming widely believed. One of
the essential elements of self-govern-
ment, or government by the people for
the people, is the right of the people to
select their public servants-their rep
resentatiyes, and the officers who carry
the laws into execution, and do the
public business. This fundamental
right is very largely and frequently in
terfered with. This is done BY men
who make business of seeking public
Office and getting into high and honor
able places to serve their own interests
and further their own selfish ends. It
is done so adroitly, and the tracks are
covered so securely, that the people are
unaware of the conspiracy against their
rights and interests until the foul plot
is contaminated by their own votes.
These Office seekers form combina-
ton in which all their interests are
united. The public Offices are corrupt
u apportiousd among themselves, be.
The Kenosha telegraph. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1860-1888, 1881-04-01

fore the people, who are virtually in
terested, make any move to select the
men who shall fill the offices. The pins
are set, the wires pulled, the primary
conventions are captured and controls
ed, and the professional and irrepressi-
BILE place seekers secure the nominal
tons. The people are battered into
the belief that the nominations are
regular, the party must be sustained
and the country must be saved. This
is said to be self-government; a gov
eminent by the people.
In about six months from now the
people will select a corps of state off.
GERS, Governor, Lieut.. Governor, Secre-
tary of State, Attorney General, and
Treasurer. At least it is the theory
that the people will select. 1t IS well
known, however, that corps of poiiti-
clans have selected themselves to Eli
these important offices. The politicians
commenced to pull the wires last fall
and now the slate is completed. All
that the place seekers have left for the
people to do is to vote to ratify the
plot of the politicians.
The only way to cure this evil is for
the people to take proper and active
interest in public affairs. They must
make themselves acquainted with the
field and have a choice of their own
If the people forfeit their rights by
negleeting to use them, they may be
sure the politicians will usurp them.

On a motion of J. G. Roberts, com.
mittee was appointed at the Bristol
caucus to secure signatures to a remon-
STRANGE against building a new Court
House. This action is calculated to
hamper the action of the Chairman of
the town of Bristol on the County
Board. Mr.. Fowler, who will be our
next Chairman, is man of sound, calm
judgment. Do the voters of the town
of Bristol wish to place him in posi-
ton where he cannot use his judgment
in deciding the question on its merits,
when the facts and situation are before
him, by expecting him to be governed
by their dictum? The voters are in
clined to be prejudiced in their views by
the tax they will have to pay. Mr.
Fowler as representative will take a
broad public view of the matter, and
should be free to decide according to
his best judgment.

SLATE SMASHING.

In an article "about states" the Ra-
cine Journal speaks sound words. We
make some quotations from a lengthy
editorial of the Journal:

and hack politicians to construct these
appendages to party. II ey are made

success lies in trading one influence or

Neither the party nor the people have

There should be no setting up of pins,
no managing of caucuses, no sharp

Office. But the press is a power in al
most every department Of human in
teresf. and is especially so in the
work of public education. The publi-
cation in question affords valuable
means of communication with the edu-
cational force and sentiments of the
State of gathering and diffusing edu-
cational news, and so keeping alive the
educational spirit of presenting and
discussing new ideas and methods, and
thus supplementing the works of the
normal schools and Institutes and
finally, for making known the rulings
and decisions of the department and
thus while it takes time it also saves
time. We say, therefore, emphatical-
ly that it is help and not hinder
ance to the werk of the department.
A bill is before the Legislature to
provide the department with additional
help, in the form of legal clerk, to
assist in the administration of the
school law, in conducting legal cores
p0ndence. and in examining and decid-
ing appeals" etc. This branch of the
work requires nearly the whole time
of ore man, and if provision is made
for it, as proposed, sufficient time is
left for the general administrative
work and the proper performance of
the outside labors required. which is
not now the case. The institute work
alone extends through about S months
of the year. and not half the institutes
can be visited without more help in
the Office. The bill then should be
passed. and the Office put on footing

perience, for when I left the State I
could not tell whisky from rum, or
champagne or wine from ale or beer,
ana was not an exception to other
boys. In large towns liquor is sold
on the sly" by the aid of numerous
devices (the result of Yankee Inpe-
nulty), but it is in small quantities, and
the perpetrators of the violation are

to Justice; for the eye of the law is
upon them, and the sentiment of the
people is against them.

sin. You advocate a high license fee
that the liquor traffic may be restricted.
Let me show you that such can not be
the case. You well know that the
liquor traffic is a paying business, and
if you Increase the license fea you will
simply cut down the profits, unless the
saloon-keeper raises the price per drink.
as he is likely to do. "Other things
being equal" one saloon, paying a IL
cense fee of $500 will make as much
profit as two saloons paying $3.50 each,
for it matters not whether there is one
or one hundred saloons in town, as
to the amount of liquor sold. One
which is protected by law will sell all
that is asked for; and a greater mum
her could dc no more. Therefore I be-
lieve that the amount of the license
fee cuts no figure whatever in the re-
striction of the sale of Intoxicating

There is truly but one way to re-
strict the traffic, and that is by lawful
prohibition, backed by a sentiment of

THE MEMORY OF INDUSTRIOUS MEN
WASHINGTON AND LINCOLN

NAckA2G1ON AND LINCOLN.
1t is interesting to note how the
memory of men illustrious in historv is
reverenced by the American people.
Strangers coming to Washington. TO
make only brief stay, deem their visit
incomplete unless they make a pilgrims
age down the river to the tomb of
Washington and the old mansion where
the father of his country lived and
died. The Mt. Vernon steamer leaves
the wharf at Washington every morn
ing at 10 o'clock. carrying about the
same number of passengers, VARYING
but little each day the year round, ex.
cepting when the Potomac is Temporal
rily obstructed with ice.
Next to Gen. Washington is the rev.
erence paid to the memory of Presi-
dent Lincoln. The old edifice in this
city once known as Ford's Theatre, on
Tenth street, where Lincoln was shot
by Booth, and the house on the oppo-
site side of the street, to which he was
conveyed, and where he breathed his
last, are places of special interest TO
many people visiting the city. During
inauguration week hundreds of stran.
gers visited these two buildings, which
to the martyred Lincoln, were "the
last of EARTH" Unlike Mt. Vernon.
there is not relic in these buildings to
remind of Abraham Lincoln. Years
ago the galleries of the theatre were
removed and the interior entirely
changed by partitioning it into rooms
for government offices, except one
large room is now occupied for med
ical museum. IF an inquirer desires to
have the locality in the building point
ed out where thesterrible tragedy was
committed, no one can give him salts
factory information. In the house on
the opposite side of the street not a
single article of furniture remains
which was there on the night of the
assassination; the house has changed
occupants more than once since then.
Only the room with its unaltered walls
where the dying President was laid
remains now as then. Not so at Mt.
Vernon. The furnishmentS of the old
mansion which Washington occupied
while living have been carefully pre-
served. Although all traces of the
bloody spot where Lincoln was MUIR
dered have been obliterated by the au-
thorities, yet the number who come to
this memorable locality Is as great now
as ten or more years ago. Like Mt.
Vernon, it will continue to draw pill
grim visitors, and the names of Wash.
ington and Lincoln will be revived in
the memories of the American people
until
