THE GAMBLING MANIA.

GAMBLING is rapidly becoming the
curse of the country. 1t would seem
nothing is free from it. Blu iless, pol
itics,. even religion are subject to the
gambling mania. Spectators gamble
in stocks, in cotton, in oil, wheat, corn,
pork and other necessaries of life.
Such men as Star Route Dorsey who
carried Indiana last year by money, for
the Republicans; Charles Foster getting
to CcrgrcsS AID becoming Governor by
means regardless of strict propriety;
speculators in camp-meetings, and in
sensation revivals, all showing the ten
deney TO speculation and gambling.
One year ago wheat in the eastern
market commanded from $1.OO to S1.IO
per bushel. Within the past week it
has ranged from $1.4O to $1.5O. This
difference is not the result of scarcity,
but Of gambling, or specializing. One
of our eastern exchanges says: General
trade has been, as usual for weeks past,
affected very much by speculation. The
export movement has steadily fallen off,
and the visible supply Of grain has in
creased so fast that we have now in
sight 100000 more bushels of grain
than a week ago, and almost 10000
600 bushels more than at this time
last year. In fact, in spite of the re-
dueed crops about which there has been

MIR. BoOKwALTER

The estimate placed upon the merits
of Foster and BOOkwalter respectively
and upon their qualifications for Cover
nor, by their own immediate fellow citi-
zens, is amply illustrated by the votes
in their own counties. In Seneca cOun-
ty, Fosters home, the Republicans sus-
tanned a loss of over 300, while in Clark
county the Democrats made gain of
over 1,300. This amply and emphatically
refutes that oft repeated lie that Book
walter was most unpopular with the
people that knew him best. The hearty
and cordial approval the people of this
county, by their votes, Tuesday, gave to
his candidacy, demonstrates his pOpu-
larity at hOme.-[Springield Tran

IT seems to be the opinion at Wash
ingtOn that Senator David Davis has fol-
lowed Malone. Last spring Malone
also disclaimed party obligation. A
Washington correspondent says: Sen
atOrs now in office remember how it
became public necessity to transfer
Mr.. Davis from the Supreme Bench to
the Senate in 1875, in order that the Ex-
ecutive Commission might be composed
for Hayes. Mr.. Davis would doubtless
spurn any intimatiOn that he was then
made tool for Republican purposes as
strong as he would now deny that they
are now using him as a makeshift, hav-
ing no respect for him politically or per-
sOnally. His transfer to the Senate was
nevertheless construed by the country
as sharp piece of Republican work
and was regarded by him as long step
toward the Presidency How much
more reason for elatiOn he has now, hav-
ing reached a place in which but one
life stands between him and the nrst
place under the Government, upon
which his mind has for years been set.

For twenty one consecutive years the
Republicans of Stark county have had
the Probate Office. In February next
Judge Meyer will succeed. The defeat
of Judge Heldenbrand is great sur
prise to Republicans generally. They
did not think it possible, let alone prOba-
BILE. The Probate Office has been their
headquarters for years. There, were par
ty schemes concocted and set going. 1t
was convenient in locality and Judge
Heldenbrand is shrewd politician and
staunch party man. We regret the
Judges health is greatly impaired.

have caught Tartar in electing Senator

THE New York Herald thinks the cleo
tiOn of Judge Davis to supercede Senator
Bayard, will set the country to compar-
ing the political principles of Mr.. Bayard
and Mr.. Davis, and to inquiring whether
a political party which seeks to put the
latter, in preference to the former, into
the line of possible succession to the
Presidency, is really serving the public
welfare by such an endeavor. The
Democrats, apparently, are very willing
for this comparison to be made. Such a
resolution also illustrates the growing
tendency of the Republican party to coal
esee with any odds and ends" which
happen to be lying loose, for the sake of
temporary success, leaving the future
to take care of itself and regardless of
the steady diminunition of popular re-
spect which always results from abnOr-
NAL coalitions.

PRESIDENT ARTHUR's sAGAcITY as q
political leader is clearly visible in the
settlement of the Republican troubles
in New York. He has always been
the shrewdest of Senator Conkling's
lieutenants, and the peaceful solution
of what at one time threatened a
hopeless disruption of the party, is
one of the benefcent results of Presi-
dent Arthur's exhausting efforts to
settle up his private business affairs
in New York.

can scarcely credit this rumor, but il
there is any truth in it Scoville should
not undertake the defense at all. The

HELP SPREAD TIE LIGHT.
BY B. M. LAWRENCE, M. d.

Let there be Light" was long since said,
When earth was young in years,
The ligh, has come and it must spread,
Till darkness disappears;
That Light first made fair Eden bloom,
When free man dressed the soil,
In this wide world there still is room,
And Land for all who toll,
CHORUS.
Then spread the light till right make
might,
Send rays beyond the sea,
Let your light shine "the land is mine, y
God says it must be FREE.
The Land League by divine command,
Has started grand school,
Where Nations learn Gods law of Land
Taught by the Golden Rule;
"The land is mine," Thus saith the Lord,
Beware, crow-bar brigade,
God owns the land, SO reads the word,
Land thieves must not invade. CHORUS.
Landlords must go" and earn their bread,
By sweat of their own brows.
Rich paupers long by labor fed,
Must heed the poor mans vows;
His plea has reached the court on high,
ana there ne rests MS cause,
Henceforth he swears he will defy
Man-made Eviction Laws. CHORUS.
A rich man once, we have been told,
Possessing large estate,
Lands, houses equipage and gold
Starved beggars at his gate;
The rich man died, death claimed his own,
His soul sank in despair,
While tramps with harps sang round Gods
throne.
He'll Knocked the rich mans prayer. CHo.
Not for the poor alone we plead,
This law for all was given,
Torment shall surely follow greed,
1t bars the gates OF heaven;
Then let The Ligh: ne'er cease to shine,
Until beneath the shade
OF each mans own fig tree and vine,
None dare to make afraid CHORUS.
Water, and earth, and air should be
No longer bought for gold,
Alike for all they must be free,
And never more be sold
Then rouse and help to spread the light,
The grand work must not cease
Till truth shall triumph over might
4 And bring the REIGN of peace.
CHORUS.
Spread this grand light till right rules might,
Here and beyond the sea;

God says it shall be FREE.

TIE POLICY OF THE PRESIDENT

1t becomes more and more appar-
ent every day that deep-seated dis
trust and uncertainty pervades the
country, as to the policy which the
President will pursue; fear that
war will be declared upon those lead
ers of the Republican party who were
nearest to and most trusted by the
lamented Garfield, and that the pow
er and patronage Of the administra-
ton will be used to crush them.
How well founded this apprehen-
sion may be we do not pretend to say,
but certain it is that it exists, and
that its effect is to destroy the har-
mony and imperil the success of the
Republican party.
While it is true that President Ar
thur owes his elevation to faction in
the party, it is none the lessrue that
as President he is the chief q all sec
tons of the party organizatim, and
that it is his duty to give the country,
as we'll as the party, a peaceful har-
monious administration. He cannot
do this by giving the entire conrol
of the Federal patronage into NE
hands of the Stalwarts, nor by per-
hitting his official acts to reflect the
aims and purposes of General Gran
and ex-senator Conkling. Nor can
be done by ostracising them.
That General Grant and ex-Senato
Conkling have great and almost pars
mount claims upon President Arthr
and the Republican party, no one wi
deny but the country is in no moo
for blind, hasty and intempera
satisfaction of them. The memory
their bitter opposition to Gener
Garfeld's appointment of Collect
Robertson, is yet too fresh for su
stantial justice to be done thel
People nowadays care very little I
party ties. Men by their acts becor
popular or unpopular with the ra

of their own party affiliations. Z
day Roscoe Conkling is unpopu
with the masses of the American p'
pie, and the slightest evidence OF
direction in the new Administered
