Save fIle House.

Says the Chicago Joural: Ex-Sena-
tor james G. Blaine, is fully awake to
the importance of The Congressional
elections. In a recent letter to the see
rotary of the Delaware Republican cen
trial committee he saws: Whatever
causes of just discomfort may exist with
State nominations, unfairly and injuri-
ously thrust upon the party, and what
ever means may be taken to resent such
wrongs and repel such indignities, it is
evidently the duty Of all true Republic
cans to use every honorable effort to
hold control of the popular branch Of
Congress. In that branch is lodged the
power to originate revenue bills. and
that carries with it the incidental power
of fostering or disabling the entire in
dustrial system of the country. The
Republicans may be safely trusted to do
the first; there is serious danger that
the Democrats might do the second"

Madison special to Milwaukee Re
publican-Sentinel 1t is an open secret
that Democrats helped to foot the Pro-
hlbition campaign expenses lastfall and
are doing the same this fall. Last year
the speaking was done by home talent,
and the takers worked without money
and without price, but this year, John
b. Finch, of Nebraska, and Gen. Neal
Dow, of Maine, have been brought here
The former charges S25 per night, and
the latter $50, and as Finch spent two
or three weeks in the Slate, and Dow is
giving eight or ten lectures, the bills are
high.

The Eagle has been a supporter of Pro-
hibition, but has become profoundly
impressed with the dishonesty and hy-
pocrisy which are shown by the man
ayers of the Prohibition party. 1t says:
1.-The Brewers and Liquor Dealers
Union (Which recently adopted the title
of Personal Liberty League) has been

towards the Prohibition canvass. We
have the most authoritative assurances
that such are really the facts. When
we were first informed of this some
weeks ago, by commercial Traveller, a
man we have known for years as keen,
able, intelligent man Of undoubted We
racity, we did not believe it, supposing
he was misinformed or mistaken al
though he assured us that he personally
knew it to be q fact. But further in
formation corroboratiye of this con-
WINGED us that it was so. Late last
week we received letter from an old
acquaintance and friend, enclosing II
copy of private circular from the
Personal Liberty Leagues headquarters
which accidentally got into the wrong
hands.

see that every friend that has not de-

The greatest danger to the success of
the Republican ticket this fall will be
the feeling of Indifference, which seems
to be a chronic complaint on all but
presidential years. A feeling that the
ticket is bound 70 win any way, and as
there is fall blowing to be done and
corn To husk that must be attended to
first. New right here great mistake
is made. The election this fall deter
mines, among other things, whether the
country shall go on under the wise and
prospecting policy of past years or
whether this shall be overthrow and
stagnation ensue under the blight that
will follow Democratic ascendency in
congress. You, reader, are personally
called upon to decide this. Your vote
may be the deciding ballot that shall
say whether the third district will re-
turn an able, honest, fearless Republi-
can, or Democrat to assist other men,
bers of that party in reversing our
present prosperous condition. You are
called upon to say which it shall be.
With such a responsibility resting upon
your shoulders, can you not safely al
low the corn to stand half day longer
or wait few hours before you COM
mence plowlng. Is it not your duty to
do this, and if so will you not do that
which is your whole duty in the matter.

in the legislative halls of the State He
has been member of the lower house
two terms and his record has therefore
been for some time before his constitu-

his return by rousing majority. No
more honest, hard working member has
been sent up from any district, than f.
/. Kidd, nor one whose voice and infiu-
ence are more felt on the floor of the
assembly. His fame and popularity is
not confined to the third district alone.
but is shared by the county at large.
His return is as certain rs anything in
the future can be in this world, but in
order that they may afterwards remem-
Der that their vote assisted in this much
to be desired result, every Republican,
OF the third district, should be sure the
name of L. |. Kidd, for the assembly, is

satisfactory in every respect. Mr..

A vote for Hastings is stab at the
Republican party. How many sons of
that grand party will use the dagger?
The coming election is important from
the fact not only that it will determine
which party shall control the national
legislation for the next two years, but
that it will further decide which party
shall have the counting of the presiden-
tial vote of 1884. To return Demo-
cratic congressman from this district,
with these facts before our eyes, would
be the sheerest madness. Not that Mr..
Jones personally might not be perfectly
fair-minded, but he would be bound by
the action of his party, dominated by
Southerners, and past experience has
proved what that domination means.
In order to prevent so disastrous state
ofstfairs every Republican voter through
out the third district should, not only
see that his own vote was cast for the
regular Republican nominee Mr.. Haz-
elton, but also be sure that his neighbor
does likewise.
